El Rey De Las Fritas – 4-minute walk
El Rey De Las Fritas is a Miami staple. They are known for their frita cubana (see top right picture above), a Cuban-style burger made with a ground beef patty, sautéed onions, crispy shoestring fries, sitting atop a fluffy Cuban roll. El Rey De Las Fritas has been featured in Food Network Magazine and celebrity chef Bobby Flay called it the best burger in Florida!

Lung Yai Thai Tapas – 5-minute walk
If you know you know, and Miamians know that this is the go-to place for Thai not just in the neighborhood, but in the entire city. There is always a line to get into this cozy Thai tapas joint. But never fear, the food comes out quick, and once inside, you’ll be seated with other patrons who eagerly await their Thai “tapas” from chef Bas Trisransi as he cooks in his open kitchen. If you aren’t into lines, call ahead for takeout and walk over. You only live 5 minutes away!
Sanguich De Miami – 5-minute walk
At Sanguich De Miami, new school is cool school. Don’t be fooled by the hipster furnishings and modern décor, Sanguich offers up what some consider to be the best pan con bistec (steak sandwich), cubano (ham, swiss cheese, pickles and mustard on Cuban bread), and media noche sandwiches (ham, shredded pork, swiss, pickles and mustard on sweet bread) in the entire city. Stop in for a sandwich and a Cuban coffee and start your day off right.
Ball & Chain – 8-minute walk
The ultimate in Miami night life. A simple google search will reveal how iconic Ball & Chain truly is. Our writeup here could never do it justice, but rest assured, if you stop in at B&C you’ll be greeted with live music, dancing, and a perfectly mixed mojito. Miamians and tourists alike frequent this spot, as it offers its patrons the best in Miami night life without having to trek to Miami Beach (or pay Miami Beach drink prices).
