About the restaurant

Established in 1989, Cafe Avanti is in a league of its own. Fine traditional Italian cuisine in a relaxed atmosphere. It's family owned and operated, and home away from home for Miami Beach locals. The staff is welcoming and hospitable, and are sure to make you feel like a regular even as a first time guest. Chef Constantino Cadavid has been at the helm of Cafe Avanti for over 21 years. It's reputation for consistency is like no other. From veal meatballs and tuna tartare, to osso bucco and frutta di mare, every dish is absolutely decadent. Desserts are homemade & the ricotta cheesecake is the best you will ever have. Parking is easy and meters are turned off at 6pm. Whether you sit at the bar, cozy brick room, a romantic table by the window, or have a large party, Cafe Avanti will provide you with the perfect experience that you are looking for.

The Den Signature Omakase experience was nothing short of extraordinary—a true journey through flavor, artistry, and exceptional hospitality. From the very first bite to the last, each course showcased a beautiful balance of creativity and precision, leaving us in awe of the chef's attention to detail. The highlight for me was undoubtedly the mouth-watering tuna, which melted effortlessly on the tongue, offering a burst of rich, delicious flavor that lingered beautifully. Each dish was thoughtfully curated, with combinations that felt both creative and harmonious. It wasn’t just food; it was an experience that engaged all the senses. Beyond the food, the comforting service elevated the evening. Every staff member exuded warmth and knowledge, ensuring we felt at ease while guiding us through the menu's intricacies. It’s clear that this team takes immense pride in their craft. If you're looking for a flavorful and unforgettable culinary adventure, The Den is a must-visit. Each plate tells a story—one that you’ll be craving to relive long after the final bite.

North Beach

About the restaurant

Fifi's Place only uses locally caught and or sustainable fish. Long known by locals for its outstanding freshness, Fifi's Seafood has been discovered by visitors to our area as well. This has led to a recent expansion of the restaurant into the adjoining store front and has more than doubled the seating capacity. Famous for its seafood Paella and fresh Hog Snapper caught by local divers daily, we also offer the freshest stone crabs when in season and Florida lobster.
Many who have discovered Fifi's Place return often for the happening vibe and fish and lobsters that are often just hours out of the ocean. Many dishes have a Japanese twist, while others are solidly Latin.
