12 Best Southern Restaurants in Miami

“Our server, Ana, was fabulous! Hands down best server ever! She asked right away if we had any food allergy restrictions and was careful to be sure our celiac friend was well cared for. She was so attentive and so sweet to our party of 5. Sergio was awesome too, making sure we were all doing good. Food and drinks were great!“

“We had a truly excellent experience at Smith x Webster yesterday. Every staff person we encountered went above and beyond their job to make last night memorable. My family and I were visiting from Indiana and we're celebrating our mom's bday, they were able to accommodate us and made us feel special. 2 of us have seafood allergies and they made sure we were safe. The food was scrumptious. Every dish was stellar. We will be back“

“Fresh and tasty food! Clean establishment and great team concerning customer service and satisfaction.“

“This place hits the spot no matter the time of day! Came here for breakfast and the pancakes were fluffy, eggs cooked just right, and coffee strong enough to get me going. Came back for dinner and it was just as good—steak was tender, sides were fresh, and the service made me feel right at home. A true all-day gem for great American comfort food.“

“We were looking for a nice place to have good food and nice ambience- we found that at Cheddars Scratch Kitchen🤗. So the food: hot when it arrived at the table - that’s a good sign because. It wasn’t sitting And getting cold / the portions were nice and the descriptions on the menu were accurate. The drinks are “Full- Size” and not just high - fructose syrup —- oh and nicely priced 🤗. Love the ambience - atmosphere - very comfortable. We’ve been looking for a nice place in Kendall to get good food / drinks and we have found it ‼️“

“The best Soul Food I have ever had!!! The baked chicken just fell off the bone, Collard greens and greens were off the hook!!! The yellow rice had a special spice that's incredible!!! Of course the corn bread was to die for!!!! When in Richmond Heights you must eat here!!! You'll be glad you did!! And the owners couldn't have been nicer and friendlier!!! Love Mr. Jack's Soul Food on the Go!!!“

“We had the barbecue chicken and fries and pulled pork it was very good and we enjoyed our server Phil who made us laugh a lot would really recommend coming back it’s a great place“

“Disclaimer: I am not the audience for ordering food and picking it up from a box without interacting with human beings. I'm not there yet. So although I'd heard of Soulfly, I wasn't particularly interested in visiting. Nevertheless, was celebrating my mom's birthday and the birthday girl wanted to come here after our wine tasting next door.

I'm glad the experience was not as impersonal as I anticipated. Partly because I just didn't feel like sticking to the script but also I couldn't get that doggone pickup situation together. LOL I had so many issues with the code to retrieve my order, it was seriously comical. I did observe others come in, put in the code, get the food and go though.

You do have to order on the kiosk but I was able to ask the manager if I could order it like this or that, which he happily made note of for my particular order. There was a little wait for having ordered onsite - things would have felt quicker had I ordered online from offsite then stopped in to pickup when notified the order was ready. I had the wings and cajun rice. Now what surprised me was that chicken! Ok, Soulfly! Very nicely seasoned, good crisp on the outside and juicy on the inside. I was impressed considering my expectations. It reminded me of those good chinese takeout chicken wings. Nice surprise. The cajun rice was just okay for me.

The challenges to me coming back are that the price is just high for what you get. I understand there is a cost for "convenience" so it is what it is. However adding $6.54 to the order when I had to do the work to place it then pick it up is.... I don't and won't mind continuing to do things the old school way to pay a more reasonable price for fried chicken in other nearby neighborhoods. Also, no "convenient" parking. I feel like this spot is more geared towards people strolling on the street or for food delivery drivers who will be on a moped only.

Overall for the chicken and helpfulness of the onsite staff, I give it a 3.5, not just a 3.“

“The breakfast bacon was good, the cafe con leche had way too much foam, and the pancakes felt too saggy and rough flavor, butter was cold and hard.

Overall the atmosphere was classic and service was good, I just wish they would have more variety for complete breakfast, such as papas de la casa, French fries included, and the cafe con leche would have less foam, cause i didn’t order a cappuccino.“

“They was friendly, definitely welcoming. The food was really good seasoned pork chops I had it was bomb.“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Bubba Gump Shrimp Co, and it was truly a five-star experience from start to finish. As a seafood enthusiast, I decided to indulge in their renowned seafood boil, accompanied by their delectable garlic bread. The combination of flavors and aromas that filled the air was nothing short of sensational. From the moment the first bite touched my palate, I knew I was in for something special. What truly stood out during my visit was the exceptional quality of the crab. As someone trying crab for the first time, I was apprehensive, but Bubba Gump Shrimp Co's preparation surpassed all expectations. The crab was impeccably cooked, tender, and bursting with rich, succulent flavors. It was a revelation, and I found myself savoring each mouthful, relishing the unique taste and texture that only fresh, high-quality seafood can provide. Beyond the exquisite cuisine, the ambiance and service at Bubba Gump Shrimp Co were equally remarkable. The atmosphere exuded warmth and hospitality, creating the perfect setting for an unforgettable dining experience. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of my meal was perfect. From recommendations to accommodating special requests, their dedication to customer satisfaction was truly commendable. Without a doubt, Bubba Gump Shrimp Co has secured its place as one of my favorite dining destinations, and I eagerly anticipate my next opportunity to indulge in their culinary delights.“
