"Cost: $135 per person. La Mar is one of our favorite Peruvian restaurants in Miami, and their brunch is proudly Peruvian too. Buffet dishes include multiple forms of ceviche, anticucho, a build-your-own sopa criolla station, and snapper jalea that’s good even though it’s cold. There’s no typical waffles or omelette station, but its diversity makes it one of the most exciting buffets in town. Dessert is a random assortment of slightly boring mini desserts and they do take each table’s two-hour limit seriously. But that’s plenty of time to stuff your face with pulpo al olivo (prioritize the seafood), bottomless pisco sours, and lomo saltado topped with a fried egg, which is one of the entree options you get to pick in addition to the buffet. As is always the case at this waterfront spot, sit outside if it’s nice. They have a small army of umbrellas for shade and spontaneous rain protection. " - ryan pfeffer
