50 Best American Restaurants near Coconut Grove

“Worth the five star rating. Happy hour 4-8 P.M. weekdays with $1.00 raw bar for oysters, clams shrimp. Fantastic view on marina. Half price drink menu. Killer She crab soup. The iguanas leisurely walking around made great entertainment for adults and youngsters of all ages. I did love this place and will be back. Google or Mapquest Monteys in Coconut Grove. You won’t be sorry“

“Great first experience at this very romantic and expertly fashioned dining establishment! The staff is very friendly, and eager to meet (and exceed) your expectations. The menu selections are not only creative, but reasonably priced for such a location in Downtown Miami, with combos which include appetizers you can pair with any one of several entrées. The views of the bay from the main and private dining rooms are exceeded ONLY by the waterfront patio area that offers just enough privacy and comfort for its dining guests, while providing an expansive view of the bay.

It truly doesn't get better than this!

I look forward to returning in the coming weeks when business pulls me back to Miami.“

I especially loved the plantains on the Cuban plate. The beachfront location adds to the nice vibe of the place.“

“Friendly, comfortable and cozy this is another Blue Collar gem. I came for the happy hour 5-6:30 and had three items and a amber ale draft. Now that that’s done; I’m coming back for the regular menu. Clams casino, oysters on the half shell and seared scallops were absolutely the bomb! Try it!“

He’s extremely attentive, knowledgeable on the menu and just an overall bubbly amazing person!! I can’t wait to come back and see king Zoran❤️❤️“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Must-Visit at Miami Airport!

Had a long layover at the Miami Airport and decided to stop by Corona Beach House and wow, what a great choice! We ordered the chorizo queso and chicken sandwiches, and both were incredible. The chorizo queso, in particular, was hands-down the best I’ve ever had in my life… so good that we actually ordered another one to go and packed it in our backpack for the flight!

A huge shout-out to Joanna, our amazing server, who went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. She even checked on our flight time to ensure we wouldn’t miss our connection. Her kindness and attention to detail truly made our experience exceptional.

If you ever find yourself traveling through Miami International Airport, Corona Beach House is an absolute must-stop. They even have an express area designed to accommodate travelers on the go. Don’t miss it — and be sure to ask for Joanna!“

“Firsy things first, This restaurant is now called Celias. We were looking for Biscayne Tavern and walked right past it twice lol. Went inside the hotel and they let us know we were in the right spot and that the name had changed. The food was very tasty and served hot. The Mahi Mahi sandwich was seasoned perfectly and the cilantro sauce was delicious. We had a few drinks that were also delicious. Overall its a nice place, decorated beautifully with tropical colors and accents.“

“The Thousand Sunny in Pinecrest is an absolute gem. It's truly an amazing spot that perfectly blends incredible food with an atmosphere any anime fan will fall in love with. From the moment you walk in, the One Piece themed decor immediately sets the tone. It’s colorful, detailed, and packed with fun references that make you feel like you’ve stepped right onto the Going Merry. The food here is just as impressive as the ambiance. Every dish we tried was delicious, beautifully presented, and reasonably priced; a rare combination these days. The hot pot dishes were definite standouts. On top of that, the staff was genuinely kind and welcoming, adding to the warm, friendly energy of the place. Whether you’re an anime fan or just someone looking for great food and good vibes, The Thousand Sunny is absolutely worth checking out.“

We ordered two chef’s suggestions, and it was a great choice. Both dishes were delicious, well prepared, and full of flavor, showing the quality of the ingredients and attention to detail. The presentation was also very nice, which made the dining experience even more enjoyable.
We were able to enjoy our meal without feeling rushed, in a comfortable and relaxed setting, ideal for spending time together as a couple. The service was excellent throughout our visit: the staff was always attentive, friendly, and very professional, making sure everything was perfect.
Overall, it was a very positive experience, a place we would definitely recommend and happily return to in order to try more of their dishes.“

“Red Rooster is our go to when we want to go out for a nice evening and don't want to roll the dice trying a new place. We know the vibe and food will always be on point. I think by now we've been here about a dozen times and have never been disappointed. They do change the menu seasonally but always have an amazing selection. The cornbread is always first on the order. I got the fried catfish with red curry sauce. Let's just say if I didn't live so far I'd be ordering it again to go. I also had the fried green tomatoes which was amazing! Meal was 10/10 as usual. Can't wait to go back.“

“Had a wonderful night tonight! Loved the fact that Heather, the General Manager came over to speak to us. We watched her walk all around with a smile and stop and talk to every table. You know she is happy with her job by her great smile! We will be back“

“In love with this place!! I give it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for the excellent quality of the food, its exquisite flavor. The service of the establishment and the hospitality of its staff is invaluable since it harmonizes with the beauty of the place, it is a clean place located in an excellent area that allows you to relax while enjoying a wonderful view on the terrace!“

“I had heard about this hot restaurant from New York that I must try, but was reticent to do so because Carbone was the name of a character from Goodfellas that Robert Deniro's Jimmy Conway whacked when tying up loose ends after the Lufthansa job! Poor sap was hanging frozen in a meat locker. I'm glad I put that imagery aside because this place was amazing! Platitudes like wonderful ambience, fine service, flavorful food, great family style dining, are all applicable but just don't capture the full spirit of the evening. From the pickled cauliflower, to the signature spicy rigatoni ala vodka (which pairs nicely with their pinot noir offering Presqu'ile), to the Caesar salad (you must have those croutons!), and their delicious Italian petit-fours, everything burst with flavor and was resplendent of the authenticity of old Venice. And since you will be spending more than a few pennies here, one must luxuriate in the mid century environs replete with Murano glass chandeliers while being serenaded with a sound track of Italian crooners like Mel Torme and Frank Sinatra in the full bela canta tradition. If you have a special occasion, Carbones Miami Beach will make for a memorable evening.“

“Stopped in for a light breakfast and some coffee on June 17, 2025. Had a great server by the name of Richie S. He was prompt, polite and professional. The three p's that denotes a great employee. He was also patience and properly groomed, those are rare qualities in today's society. This made my dining experience exceptional, and I have always enjoyed stopping at Denny's when traveling. It also made my day, thanks to Richie and the entire staff of Denny's at 3600 Biscayne Blvd in Miami, Florida.“

“LOVE! Walter is an amazing server and the staff as a whole is super into it. Watching FSU V Miami and couldn’t imagine a better vibe“

“One of our favorite restaurants!“
