Where to find the best restaurants on Lincoln Road

One of the longest-standing and most popular spots on Lincoln Road, Juvia is always a solid spot for a date night thanks, in part, to the stunning view of South Beach its perch atop the 1111 parking garage provides. Dishes are full of flavor and colorful with options like hamachi jalapeno with shaved watermelon radish, micro cilantro and garlic chips. You know it's on the pricier side as there’s an option to add truffle to nearly everything on the menu—but this is one of those spots that’s worth treating yourself.
