Tom Jenkin's BBQ. A destination in itself!

Try Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza or Trina (for a beautiful beach view).

I'll second Tom Jenkin's!!! It seems you are looking for something different (water view to enjoy Florida?) but still, stop by if just for a snack; really.

Casa d'Angelo, on Federal Hwy., may be one of the best Italian restaurants in the southeast. A must! Also, Cero, in the new St. Regis Hotel is lovely and pricey and delicious, of that's what you're looking for.

I had one of the best meals of my life at Blue Moon Fish Company and I recommend it to everyone who will listen. The menu is always changing but if they are still serving the baked grouper with crab/corn cake...it is a must.

There is Morton's Steak House in North Miami near Aventura, its a beautiful restaurant with an excellent menu. It is right next to a PF Chang's.

It would probably easier to go to the Morton's in Palm Beach.
