This place is genuine as its name implies. Try the pig ears (chicharrones on steroids) and the grouper tartar is special! Dessert a must! The flan is so so creamy that it taste like a warmer ice cream

Anna D

Always a great time here! Brunch or dinner , drinks - everything is amazing and cooked to perfection. Glad to have a place where you can enjoy fresh produce and meat that's not deep fried.

Jeffrey Silver

Truly wonderful Casual restaurant . Service and Food are perfect. Lots to choose from and if your Vegan your in heaven. I would go back here again and again. The Design District is must visit in Miami

Michael Schwartz serves up a Black Angus burger on a brioche bun , with optional house-smoked bacon . He has been serving at South Beach Wine and Food Festival 's Burger Bash for years — and he's won.

Dominique Duque

The greek farro salad is amazing! Chicken wings , octopus , sweet amd sour pork ribs are great. Must do doughnuts for dessert . Ask for Hinmahtooyah to be your server- great service!

Helen Durrant

Go for happy hour , sit at the bar and order some half priced drinks and snacks - the crispy pigs ears were amazing and a steal at just a few dollars.

Kelly Hanna

Wow! This place is beyond amazing! The ceviche , the straticello, and the chocolate chess pie . OMG DO NOT LEAVE without having the chocolate chess pie !

Anna D

Best restaurant in Miami , great service, the food is fantastic and drinks are really well made. Both brunch and dinner are really good. Burrata cheese is a must!

Located in the Design District, it draws a mostly local crowd , including art collectors, socialites, and Miami TV personalities. Get the crispy pig’s ear salad and the whole poulet rouge. Read more

Alexandra Previdi

I've never had anything bad at Michael's. The menu changes so often that I usually ask the waiter and go with many of his suggestions, but tough to go wrong. Sit outside if you can!

Glenn Ebert

The crown culinary jewel of the Design District, and a huge celebrity enclave during Art Basel. Make a reservation if there's any left, and try any dish that contains duck . Always incredible.

Sarah Dunn

One of my favorite brunch spots ! If it's crowded , sit at the bar . Must try the breakfast pizza and lemon ricotta pancakes

Álvaro Salcedo

Roasted Turkey Sandwich !!! (tomato , avocado , house smoked bacon , herb mayonnaise , multigrain )

Epicurious

Everything gets close attention and house-made affection: the jams , the pickles , the sodas , the Bloody Marys , even the Pop Tarts (a pastry chef 's elevated riff on the grocery store staple). Read more

Andrea Santos

The name is a guarantee !!! Amazing food, divine,the environment is super-nice. One of the best place in Miami !!! Make a reservation is a must.

Glenn Ebert

The brunch is built out a la carte, and you can order by item. Best for sharing, but Michael's does not disappoint. Try anything that you can pour syrup on, and anything with Duck in it.

Louis Vuitton

The food is just divine, the scene is very happening, and their homemade hot sauce is reason enough to try this place. Make a reservation or be prepared to wait.

We had the mussels /octopus /zucchini hummus and the pork belly all of which where really really good however the chocolate chess pie dessert stole the show.

Jordan M

Love the orange radish salad , octopus , and short rib . Dislike the warm martinis and slow service

Lela Al A.

For sure the best brunch in Miami (also my fav restaurant ). Order the wood oven roasted egg and the stracciatella !

Sveta_konfeta????

Wood roasted yellowfin tuna is the best. Rigatoni is also very good, a little bit spicy . Good service , good vibes, I like this place

Mariah Maggioli

Peekytoe crab salad + Crispy sweet & spicy pork belly = to die for!

Great experience from start to finish the best fish I have had in a long time. All the vegetable sides were so good so order extra.

Skip straight to the pan fried snapper with a nice glass of wine . The cocktails are on the sweet side, but the beer selection is on point.

Walber Carvalho

Good, fresh and contemporary food! The grilled spiced leg of lamb is second to none! And it goes very well with a Stoned Arrogant Bastard Ale !

There'll always be a wait here. But grab a drink, sit on a ledge in the atrium, and do some window shopping to pass the time.

It's all about the food! The farm egg small plate is one of the best things I've ever put in my mouth and the home brew sundae is outrageous.
