Miami
The menu spans the Latin world, but really everyone’s here for the ceviche ‘spoon bar.’ The idea: pick from six styles of ceviche (raw, marinated seafood), ranging from tuna with ginger to corvina in lime juice, and pull a culinary version of DIY. It’s novel and fun, and the ceviche varieties are outstanding.
Other mains include different grilled meats and fish – endearing in their simplicity, but lacking the tasty complexity of the ceviche.
