FOR THE LOVE OF FOOD: MIAMI SPICE

Miami runs on its restaurants. Always has. Not just the flashy ones in the headlines, but the neighborhood spots and the chef-driven kitchens. The dollars you spend at those tables don’t just pay for ingredients, they pay for rent, for school supplies, for gas tanks, groceries, and doctors appointments. They keep the American dream alive for thousands of people who built this city with their hands, their hustle, and their hospitality.

This summer, that dream is on the ropes. Too many good restaurants have gone quiet. Too many ovens have gone cold. But from August 1st to October 1st, we’ve got a chance to change that. Miami Spice isn’t just a dining deal this year, it’s a lifeline. It’s our chance to save the people and businesses that make this city run.

We’re not asking you to sacrifice. We’re asking you to celebrate and show up. To raise a glass, pass the ceviche, and remember that hospitality makes this city feel like home.

Eat like it matters. Because this year it does.

What’s the Deal?

3 course meals at the city’s best restaurants for just $35–$60, now through September 30.

We’re talking $35 lunches and $45 or $60 dinners at spots like Cote, Mr Chow, Mila, Paya, Motek, Raos, Uchiko, Milos, Papi Steak, Mimi Chinese, Makoto, Ariete, Uchi, Shiso, Ghee places that usually require a reason and a reservation made way in advance.

More than 300 restaurants are in the mix from South Beach to Design District to Wynwood to Coconut Grove.

Here’s the full list of participating restaurants: Miami Spice Restaurant List
