Silverlake Bistro

Silverlake Bistro (La Fresa's sister restaurant) is a casual North Beach restaurant with some sidewalk seating, outstanding taste in wallpaper, and simple but really great bistro dishes. Food is the main reason to come here, so bring those friends who will appreciate one of the best burgers in town (which you should absolutely add bacon to), chicken with impressively crispy skin, and duck fat-seared gnocchi. It’s just impossible to have a bad meal here, especially if you add a bottle of wine to the equation.

Miami Beach has lots of glitz and glam, but sometimes what we all want is a neighborhood spot—a place like the wife-and-husband-helmed Silverlake. The food is always good, the service is consistently friendly and I’ve yet to find anything on the menu I wouldn’t recommend. Try this: Test that theory with the double patty cheeseburger, slathered in an umami punch of porcini mayo, bacon and cheddar, served alongside nostalgia-inducing shoestring fries.

Miamians should be doubly grateful to Sandy Sanchez and her husband, chef Benoit Rablat, the duo behind Hialeah's La Fresa Francesa; we have them to thank for Silverlake Bistro, as well. Drawing inspiration from their time together in Los Angeles' Silver Lake area, the couple serves straightforward American fare with subtle French and Latin twists at this unassuming gem in the Normandy Isles neighborhood of Miami Beach. The interior is done up in retro California shabby chic, from trippy wallpaper to kitschy flea market finds.

The wine list includes a range of bottles from California, France, even Mexico and Israel.
