Miami’s Ten Best Burritos

Miaminewtimes.com selects Miami’s Ten Best Burritos. The list includes some unusual choices like burrittos with
hot dogs, tofu, and even tongue. Some of the highlights include:

The Marley at Nacho Bizness
There’s a world of flavor inside Aaron Byers’ little trailer, but Nacho Bizness cranks out some of the most flavorful, overstuffed burritos this side of California. These surfer-dude-style burritos are all filled with fresh ingredients, but we go with the Marley, filled with Jamaican jerk chicken and tropical pineapple slaw ($7).

Octopus Burrito at My Ceviche
Sam Gorenstein makes beautiful ceviche at his teeny-tiny restaurant in the SoFi section of Miami Beach, but he must have seen a market in catering to the international students who stay at the youth hostel adjacent to his place because his burritos are the sleeper hit. Filled with insanely fresh seafood like corvina and sushi-grade tuna, they’re like no other burrito in Miami. We love the octopus, filled with coconut-jasmine rice and pickled onions ($9.95). Best way to eat one? Take it one block east and eat it with your toes in the sand!

Light up your Cubans in Little Havana
Visit Little Havana for a taste of Cuba. In Calle Ocho (SW 8th Street), you’ll find many restaurants and shops that are replicas of the original in Cuba. Enjoy the atmosphere, with Mediterranean-style houses with rocking chairs on the porch, fragrant air of tobacco wafting from cigar stores and hum of Latin music from record shops.

Dine in style at a classic Miami restaurant
The 19th-century Parisian façade of The Forge conceals a glitzy interior that is a rococo lover’s dream. The steakhouse once hosted the likes of Judy Garland, Frank Sinatra and Richard Nixon. It still has an 1822 Château Lafite Rothschild worth $150,000 to prove its star quality.
