Mi Rinconcito Mexicano · Little Havana
Mi Rinconcito Mexicano is a fast moving Little Havana restaurant built for generous, familiar plates. A combination can bring tacos, gorditas, sopes, and a quesadilla chilanga together, while the bakery counter offers conchas to carry home for coffee the next morning.
Koko · Coconut Grove
Koko gives Coconut Grove a polished Mexican dining room centered on composed plates and housemade purple tortillas. Mole and enchiladas show the kitchen's range, while the setting works for a lingering dinner that still keeps the food tied to recognizable regional preparations.
Casa MX · Coral Gables
Casa MX handles cold mariscos and warm dishes with equal care in its Coral Gables dining room. Citrusy octopus aguachile can share the table with duck flautas and huitlacoche quesadillas, and the smaller portions make it easy to sample several preparations in one visit.
CHA CHA CHA - Miami · Wynwood
Cha Cha Chá gives Wynwood a seafood focused Mexican menu with bright, acidic flavors. Aguachiles, crisp tuna tostadas, and oysters dressed with chamoy and Tajín lead the cold side, while the kitchen's warm dishes make the restaurant more than a stop for mariscos alone.
Hidalgo's Cafe-Restaurant | Mexican · South Dade
Hidalgo's Cafe serves South Dade from early morning through dinner with a family run menu that changes character across the day. Chilaquiles and eggs start the morning, gorditas and tacos fill lunch trays, and a bubbling molcajete combines steak, shrimp, and chicken.
