Our Top Pick
Batch Gastropub - Miami
Brickell's go-to sports bar elevates gastropub fare with locally-sourced ingredients and an impressive whiskey collection.

Notable Picks

$$ Brickell Breakfast
Kevin Danilo, an Indiana University alum who maxed out his credit cards to chase the restaurant dream, opened Batch in December 2013 after five years of bartending and grinding through Miami's hospitality scene. The scratch kitchen approach—house-made sodas, barrel-aged cocktails, in-house bitters—elevates this beyond typical sports bar fare, and the hot pepper cheesesteak has been named among the best in the country. Walls lined with screens showing American sports means this is loud and proud about what it is. The whiskey collection runs deep, the chicken and waffles satisfy, and the staff remembers regulars. Not gastropub in the precious sense—more like a neighborhood bar that actually cares about food.
Must-Try Dishes: Chimichurri Chicken Kebabs, Sweet Chili Bone-In Wings, Chicken and Waffles
What Makes it Special: Brickell's go-to sports bar elevates gastropub fare with locally-sourced ingredients and an impressive whiskey collection.
$$$ Brickell Japanese, Asian Fusion
Owner-operated ramen house that commits to a narrow menu—tonkotsu broth simmers for 18 hours, noodles are pulled daily from Japanese-imported flour, and the kitchen seats fewer than 25. Brickell regulars treat it as a late-night anchor, returning for the pork belly char siu and oxtail bowls that consistently rank among the neighborhood's strongest ramen options. The price point runs steep for noodles, but the portion size and broth depth justify repeat visits for those who prioritize craft over convenience.
Must-Try Dishes: Pork Belly Char Siu Ramen, Oxtail Ramen, Chicken Pan Seared Gyoza Dumplings
What Makes it Special: A tiny, owner-operated Brickell ramen house where noodles are made fresh daily with flour imported from Japan and tonkotsu broth simmers for hours in massive kettles.
$$ Brickell Japanese
A decade-plus Brickell fixture co-owned by Sean Raee, who's made multiple trips to Tokyo chasing authenticity—and it shows in the daily-flown fish and layered flavor profiles on rolls like the Hamachi Supreme. The space delivers on the Instagram-friendly promise with faux cherry blossoms and a vibrant terrace that pulls in the happy hour crowd for genuinely solid deals (70-piece platters under $100 is real). Service gets consistently name-checked as warm and attentive, though kitchen execution runs hot and cold based on recent feedback—some visits land perfectly, others feel rushed. Best for groups who want festive energy and respectable-not-transcendent sushi in a neighborhood drowning in overpriced mediocrity.
Must-Try Dishes: Hamachi Supreme Roll, Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice, Himachi Crudo
What Makes it Special: A 25-year Miami institution serving daily-flown fresh fish in a vibrant, Instagram-worthy space with faux cherry blossom trees and colorful decor that stands out in the Brickell dining scene.
$$$ Brickell Breakfast
V&E Hospitality Group transformed the longtime Segafredo space into this Garden-of-Eden lounge in 2019, targeting a younger, hipper Brickell crowd with draping vines, reclaimed barn wood, and a terrace that transitions from breezy brunch spot to late-night scene. The birria taquitos and pistachio French toast draw weekend crowds, while happy hour consistently earns praise as among Brickell's best. The space truly transforms after dark—plush interiors and low lighting create genuine seduction. Service reviews run hot and cold, and portion sizes on happy hour food disappoint some. Best understood as a lounge that serves food rather than a restaurant with good drinks.
Must-Try Dishes: Birria Taquitos, Grana Padano Truffle Fries, Pistachio French Toast
What Makes it Special: A see-and-be-seen lounge that transforms from breezy terrace dining to late-night hotspot with live DJs and creative cocktails.
$$ Brickell Mexican
A counter-service taqueria carrying 40 years of Mexico City taquero tradition, Tortilla Madre presses tortillas fresh daily and refuses to Americanize its recipes—the kind of no-shortcuts approach that earns credibility among purists. The sirloin trompo and cochinita pibil are the standouts, and birria quesatacos come with rich consomé for dipping. The space reads like a high school goth decorated it during an estate sale phase—inverted candelabras, graffiti-covered walls, lava lamp lighting—which either charms or baffles depending on your tolerance for aesthetic chaos. Order at the touchscreen and grab a seat. Best for late-night taco runs when authenticity matters more than ambiance, though the eccentric room has its own appeal.
Must-Try Dishes: Sirloin Trompo Taco, Chicken Al Pastor Taco, Prime Rib-Eye Taco
What Makes it Special: 40 years of Mexico City taquero tradition reimagined—handmade tortillas pressed daily, no shortcuts, no Americanized adaptations, just authentic tacos.
$$ Brickell Japanese
A 20-year Miami institution that was doing late-night ramen before it was trendy, open until 5AM every night with an izakaya-style menu spanning crispy rice rolls, A5 wagyu ramen, and deep-fried cheesecake. The value proposition is strong—quality ingredients at prices that don't punish you for ordering a second round—and servers like Luis and Noel get called out by name. Peak hours can slow the kitchen considerably, and some find the ramen merely solid rather than destination-worthy. Works best as a reliable Brickell standby or post-bar spot rather than a special-occasion pick.
Must-Try Dishes: Crispy Rice Roll, Red Dragon Roll, A5 Wagyu Ramen
What Makes it Special: One of Brickell's only quality sushi spots open until 5AM, offering A5 wagyu ramen and creative rolls at accessible prices.
$$$ Brickell Wings
Matt Kuscher's 2021 resurrection of Tobacco Road—Miami's legendary speakeasy that closed in 2014 after a century of bootleggers and blues—brings the original bar's salvaged decor into the former River Oyster Bar space alongside Kush Hospitality's Florida-forward gastropub playbook. The La Frita burger with guava and LoKal sauce earns its national ranking, and the fried gator strips lean into the Miami-weird identity without feeling gimmicky. Reviews split on service—some praise mixologists like Tony by name, others note the warmth can feel inconsistent compared to the Wynwood flagship. It's cozy, loud when it fills up, and priced higher than the dive-bar aesthetic suggests, but the craft beer selection and late-night hours make it a legit Brickell anchor for anyone chasing local character over polish.
Must-Try Dishes: La Frita Burger, Fried Alligator Strips, Bang Bang Shrimp Tacos
What Makes it Special: A tribute to Miami's legendary Tobacco Road speakeasy, serving Florida-inspired gastropub fare including the Frita burger voted one of the top 52 in the U.S.
$$ Brickell Ice Cream
Naples-rooted franchise dating to 1911 that landed in Brickell with late-night hours stretching to 3am on weekends—a legitimate differentiator in a neighborhood where most dessert spots close early. The pistachio and passion fruit sorbetto get the most praise, and the sugar-free dark chocolate surprises people who expect diet versions to taste like cardboard. The compact space with four small tables isn't built for lingering, and the $12 cone price point draws consistent grumbles even from reviewers who liked the product. Some customers note a slightly artificial aftertaste on certain flavors, suggesting quality control varies by batch. Best for: the post-club crowd who wants actual gelato instead of a bodega pint at 2am.
Must-Try Dishes: Pistachio, Stracciatella, Passion Fruit Yogurt
What Makes it Special: Italian gelato tradition since 1911 with late-night hours until 3am on weekends, serving the post-club Brickell crowd.

Worthy Picks

$$$$ Brickell Japanese
A London import that doubles as an art installation—Damien Hirst sculptures, Frank Gehry fish lamps, and a crowd that treats dinner as a runway show. The caramelized black cod and robata-grilled items hold their own, but portions run small for the price, and quality can swing between excellent sushi and forgettable cooked plates. Reviews consistently rate the atmosphere five stars and the food closer to 3.5, which tells you exactly who this place is for. Dress code enforcement is inconsistent enough to frustrate, and table placement can make or break the experience—request the main room or risk being banished to a lesser section.
Must-Try Dishes: Caramelized Black Cod with Spicy Miso, King Crab and Bone Marrow, Crispy Duck Salad
What Makes it Special: A London import with Damien Hirst art and Frank Gehry fish sculptures, where Asian-inspired seafood meets Miami nightlife glamour.
$$ Brickell Pizza
A no-frills NY-style slice shop that earns its reputation by staying open until 5am on weekends when everything else in Brickell is closed. The Sicilian squares with their crispy-chewy texture and the classic cheese slice are the main draws—nothing fancy, just solid execution at reasonable prices. Counter service in a compact space next to Better Days bar makes it a natural post-party stop. Some slices land closer to 'elevated frozen pizza' territory than authentic New York, and daytime visits reveal the limitations more clearly. Best for late-night cravings when quality expectations adjust accordingly.
Must-Try Dishes: Classic Cheese Pizza, Meat Lovers Pizza, Chicken Wings
What Makes it Special: No-frills NY-style slice shop with late-night hours until 5am on weekends, serving consistently solid pizza when everything else is closed.
