Market in Miami

Farm stand which grows a variety of different crops, from Avocados to Basil. We aim to grow sustainably, and provide our customers with a healthy, high quality product.

Bin No. 18

1800 Biscayne Blvd. Downtown/Overtown

786-235-7575

Market, Wine Bar, Recommended

This family-run wine bar/European market, a casually industrial, loftlike space with a dining and drinking area up front and a limited selection of boutique wines and charcuterie items in back, is rough-edged. And that's a big part of its charm. The eat-in fare is just sandwiches, salads, small plates, and large charcuterie platters for sharing. But chef Alfredo Patino is the former chef de cuisine at Bizcaya (the Ritz-Carlton Coconut Grove's ultra-upscale restaurant), and the sophistication shows in elegant tapas like warm figs brûlée (fresh figs stuffed with Cambozola cheese and hazelnuts, drizzled with sweet-tart aged balsamic vinegar), sandwiches such as the Roast Beefeclectic on fresh-baked ciabatta (with caramelized onions, horseradish cream, and au jus), or a crab cake with smoked coleslaw and dijon mustard cream sauce. Ask about specials, since they may not always be mentioned (but if one is lentil soup, made from the chef's mom's recipe, you want it). In fact, ask for anything, if you notice a cheese or cured meat in the market counter that isn't being used on the menu. This eatery is informally friendly, yet unusually creative, enough that the chef might well accommodate you.Read our full review.

Burr's Berry Farm

12741 Southwest 216th St. Cutler Bay/Palmetto Bay

305-251-0145

Dessert, Hot Dogs, Market, Parks and Outdoors, Best Of

Drive up and say hello to Mary Burr, who's been selling strawberries, vegetables, milkshakes, and jams at the same location for more than 40 years. Here you'll find baskets of red, ripe strawberries ($8.50), cabbages, squashes the size of a small terriers, and homemade jams and jellies. Ever the entrepreneur, Mary and her crew also sell fresh orchids, honey, cut flowers, and potted herbs. If it grows in Redland, Mary sells it. Adjacent to the produce stand is a milkshake shack selling fresh strawberry milkshakes and sundaes ($4-$5). The place is busiest during weekends, filled with Miami families eager to show children a world apart from the suburban sprawl in which they live. Though other stands in the area also sell milkshakes, Mary's crew will tell you Burr's is the first and the best.

Captain Jim's Seafood Market & Restaurant

12950 W. Dixie Highway North Miami

305-892-2812

Seafood, Market, Critics' Pick, Best Of, Slideshow, Essentials

David Garcia (La Camaronera Seafood Joint) now owns this iconic North Miami seafood spot, which dates back to the 1990s. This heir to Miami seafood royalty kept the menu mostly unchanged, allowing Captain Jim's to do what it does best: serve the freshest fish possible. Favorites include stone crab claws (in season) and a beautiful take on conch salad with meaty hunks of the mollusk tossed in a spicy tomato marinade and cubed red and green peppers. Fresh yellowtail snapper and hogfish can be ordered grilled, blackened, or fried. Regulars go for the "Captain's Combo" — the catch of the day served with one side.

Captain's Tavern

9625 S. Dixie Highway East Kendall/Pinecrest

305-666-5979

Seafood, Market, Recommended, Best Of, Menu, Essentials

In 1971, Bill "The Captain" Bowers opened the doors of his seafood restaurant in the boondocks of southwest Miami-Dade, now known as Pinecrest, and has remained an institution for locals and tourists alike ever since. When Bowers died in 2020 at the age of 91, his wife, Audrey Palomino Bowers, and their son, Dale Palomino, who has worked at the Captain's Tavern since he was 16 years old and now serves as head chef, took over. So it has remained a family affair, and the patriarch's presence remains very much in evidence. The menu, the apotheosis of a seafood lover's delight, continues to offer the tried-and-true staples that made the Captain's Tavern famous: cracked conch, oysters Rockefeller, and, of course, a Tuesday two-for-one Maine lobster special. The restaurant also offers a full raw bar and sushi menu. Pretty much everything at the Captain's Tavern is housemade, from the sauces to the desserts.

Casa Tua Cucina

70 SW Seventh St. Brickell

305-755-0320

Italian, Market, Recommended, Menu

Casa Tua Cucina, which opened quietly inside Saks at Brickell City Centre in January, offers an array of choices for hungry shoppers craving Italian-style sustenance. The 300-seat space includes ten dining stations, each with a different chef at the helm and all sharing a kitchen. It's also family-friendly, with a causal atmosphere and affordable prices. Throughout the market, visitors can also find artisan products available to take home. All of the items were carefully chosen from smaller producers, including a coffee imported from Naples, Italy, and an abundance of Italian olive oils and jars of honey from Key West.

The Cheese Course

Gourmet, Market, Sandwiches, Retail, Recommended

Let's face it: Cheese makes everything better. The Cheese Course -- a chain with four locations throughout South Florida -- is a nod to the stores of Europe that sell one item done extremely well. Patrons wander through the odorous shop and are encouraged to sample from more than 150 cheeses from all over the world before making selections. Take a seat and enjoy a custom cheese plate sampler, or order from the bistro menu (sandwiches, salads, omelets). Knowledgeable staff help steer unsure eaters in the right direction. Throughout the month, people are encouraged to come in for classes on pairings, specialty cheeses, and cooking demonstrations from the cheesemonger.Read our full review.

Epicure Gourmet Market & Cafe

Cafe, Market

In the bad old days, prior to the advent of the digital universe and 24/7 connectivity, we barely had time to grab something at the store after work, rush home, and cook it before falling into bed like a sack of dead cheese. Today we barely have time to grab something at the store after work, rush home, and cook it before falling into bed like a sack of dead cheese. This is where Epicure Market comes in. Miami?s premier upscale foodie emporium displays an impressive array of reasonably priced, decently flavorful meals to go, both freshly made and frozen. Skip the frozen ones, which resemble the TV dinners of those bad old days. Instead try the excellent New England-style clam chowder, hearty pasta e fagioli, well-made lasagna, or tasty chicken potpie; any one of these with a salad and hunk of French bread would make a fine dinner. A quite creditable bread pudding would make an equally fine dessert.

The Fresh Market

2640 S. Bayshore Dr. Coconut Grove

305-854-7202

Deli, Market, Salads, Sandwiches, Retail, Best Of

Fresh Market looks like an old-time general store with better lighting housed in swank digs right alongside Biscayne Bay. Tranquil music and aromatic produce seize your senses as soon as you enter (and, hey, the make-your-own-six-pack-of-beer cooler is definitely engaging), but the island in the center of the store is where the finest array of prepared foods is displayed and dispersed to hungry patrons. The extensive collection includes quiches, meatloaf, barbecued pulled pork, stuffed cabbage, carrot soufflé, sushi (rolled before your eyes), salads, and sandwiches (Reubens to Cubans to Mediterranean-style paninis piled up as if auditioning for a food shop in Milan). But what puts Fresh Market in a league of its own is a stunning lineup of first-class roasted meats: glazed crown ribs of pork roast, plump rolls of herbed turkey breast, chipotle-barbecued baby back ribs so succulent that Shorty's is shaking in its cowboy boots, and five types of darkly bronzed rotisserie chicken - our favorites are the honey-bourbon and whiskey-sage. This is by no means an inexpensive shop, but many of the prepared foods are less extravagantly priced than you might think; chicken costs $3.69 per pound and the aforementioned roasts cost $4.99 to $8.99 per pound. If all that isn't enough to put some pep in your step, grab a cup of freshly roasted coffee from a complimentary dispenser up front.

Futuro Supermarket Cafeteria

Health, Market, Best Of, Menu

We live in a city that regularly sees temperatures above 90 degrees. Fortunately, Miami's climate is also ripe for growing awesome produce of all kinds. That means there is no reason to settle for a made-from-concentrate, prepackaged juice box when you can have the real thing. Futuro Supermarket is like a blast from the past with its antiquated cash register and small aisles. But way at the back of the store sits the perfect oasis. Mango, pineapple, orange, carrot — the list of fresh juices goes on and on. They're served in a 16-ounce Styrofoam cup ($2) or sold by the half-gallon ($6). Either way, they taste like you just bit into the fruit itself.

When Whole Foods seems too overwhelming or impersonal, head to cozy market-bistro Gardner's Market to pick up imported beluga and a latte or a scone. The gourmet shop offers prepared salads, a hot foods section, and a station where sandwiches and burgers ($6.99) are made to-order. The staff doesn't seem to fit the image that Gardner's is trying to project - employees are mostly uninformed, if accommodating - and the store is highly unorganized. No takeout menus, business cards, or other standard informative materials are on hand. But Gardner's offers a terrific takeout deal called meals for four ($19.99), which includes four servings of turkey meatloaf, mashed potatoes, French green beans, and a baguette.

Glaser Organic Farms

13751 SW 192nd St. Cutler Bay/Palmetto Bay

Retail, Market, Slideshow

Glaser Organic Farms occupies the largest tent at the Coconut Grove Farmers Market. Tracy Fleming, who has owned the farm with her husband, Stan, for more than 30 years, sells a variety of local and nonlocal produce. The tent is widely recognized for its locally processed, organic raw and vegan foods. Prices are high, especially for the prepared foods and specialty products. Tables are topped with 17-ounce jars of Italian acacia honey for $16 and 16-ounce bottles of organic nut butters for $16.75. Nut milks, processed at Glaser, cost $5.50 for 16 ounces. The majority of the prepared foods are made with certified-organic ingredients. The produce, in general, is more reasonably priced. Organic avocados grown at Glaser retail for $1.60 a pound, which means about $3 apiece. Unlike most farmers' markets, Glaser accepts credit cards and EBT cards. So maybe it's best to think of it as a local, outdoor version of Whole Foods, one that happens to be run by an organic farmer. Like Whole Foods, the prices are high, but that $5.75 container of sprouted hummus -- amid dewy piles of plums and peaches -- just looks too enticing.

If you can't cast a line off your very own 40-foot catamaran, Golden Rule Seafood is the next best thing. This family-owned purveyor has been around since 1943, serving up fresh fish, stone crab, lobster, oysters, live blue crabs, shrimp and all other forms of the ocean's bounty. So if you're in Palmetto Bay and craving a little something from the sea, you know where to go. If you prefer pre-cooked eats, they'll even steam your seafood on site for you. And if you're too tempted to wait till you get home, there are tables where you can sit and crack, squeeze and drool your way through a set of stone crab claws.

This Japanese food and sushi spot serves some of the freshest and best sushi in Miami-Dade County. Patrons flock to watch Japanese sushi masters carve, slice, and roll. Miso soup, edamame, teriyaki bowls, and bento boxes are also offered â?? and that's just in the dining area (it's way too small to call a restaurant). While you sit at the tiny counter or one of three small tables, you can see a plethora of Asian goods lining the market's aisles. There's everything from Pocky sticks (chocolate-covered biscuits) to dried seaweed for purchase.

Market, Deli, Recommended, Best Of

Early each morning, when most of us are still asleep, the crew of Joanna's Marketplace is in the kitchen, slicing, dicing, grilling, poaching, broiling, and sauteeing all manner of fresh comestibles. Little bits of smoked ham hocks are being put aside for split-pea soup; tomatoes are simmering into a bisque. Cooks debone chicken breasts that will later be bathed in Marsala sauce or stuffed with prosciutto, sage, and cheese for saltimbocca (the menu changes daily). The lamb being cut up will become moussaka; the beef tips will later be smothered in charred tomato sauce. Any hot entree comes with your choice of a protein and two side dishes. Sandwiches, salads, and a bounty of fresh-baked breads are on hand as well. Joanna's opens daily at 7 a.m. and stays open until 7:30 p.m. (6 p.m. Sundays). Incentive for getting there early is a Belgian-chocolate-filled almond croissant with a cup of frothy cappuccino.

Everyone knows La Camaronera as the iconic Little Havana seafood joint founded by a family of Cuban fishermen. For more than 40 years, the restaurant’s owners, the Garcia brothers, have been cooking up their famous favorites — including grouper soup, shrimp empanadas, conch fritters, and a fresh fish sandwich — along with dozens of other Cuban-inspired dishes. Most people flock to the dive for the house specialty: camarones fritos, a dish that has been featured on Michelle Bernstein’s PBS show Check, Please! and Guy Fieri’s popular Food Network series Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives.

Ladies and gentlemen, please fasten your seat belts. Your flight to Florence via Capri, Sicily, and Rome is about to depart. That's what a visit to La Centrale, the three-level food hall celebrating all things Italian, simulates. On the first floor, choose from Italian pastries such as cannoli and torta della nonna. Perhaps more to your liking is a wood-fired pizza that rivals the best in Napoli. On the second floor, have a negroni or an Aperol spritz at the apéritif bar before enjoying charcuterie or langoustines flown in from the Mediterranean. On the third floor, you'll find a wine cellar, where you can enjoy a red made from the fertile and volcanic soil of Sicily or a white that's as crisp and bright as a spring morning in Amalfi.

La Estancia Argentina

17870 Biscayne Blvd. Aventura/North Miami Beach

305-932-6477

Argentine, Market, Recommended, Best Of

Argentine steaks are revered not because of how they're cooked, but because the meat is incredible. The cattle roam the fertile pastures of the pampas and are never forced to exert themselves (because exercise makes the meat tougher). They are carted around the country in train cars. This special treatment produces beef that melts when it hits your tongue and is unrivaled in tenderness and flavor. Estancia Argentina is a Miami-based chain with locations in Aventura and the Health District. It's half restaurant, half market, and all good. The empanadas and sandwiches are delicious, made fresh with quality ingredients. The walls are lined with bottles of wine, so you can buy a Malbec and drink it with your meal. The meat counter is to drool over, with all sorts of Argentine beef cuts, cheeses, chorizos, and chimichurris. They also have great desserts. The place is always packed with Spanish speakers enjoying a cup of vino or guarana soda with meaty skirt steak or prosciutto and mozzarella sandwiches. Join them.
