"It’s official: Sunny’s is the hottest restaurant in Miami right now. This is the way it should be. The Little River restaurant is a triumph in special occasion meals. The dining room is full of mirrors inlaid with golden palm trees, high ceilings, and big round tables. The outdoor patio is where everyone in this city wants to be on a crisp night. The entire restaurant screams celebration like candles in a cake. And your effort for snagging a reservation will be a night full of martinis, medium-rare steak, and a renewed faith in hyped-up restaurants. Sunny’s releases reservations 30 days in advance. But if you missed that window, seats at their indoor bar are held for walk-ins. It's a small bar, but the full menu is available there. You might want to arrive 15 minutes before they open at 5:30pm to be safe. Members of our team have also successfully walked in without a reservation, put their name on the list, and gotten a table after about 30 minutes. Worst case, you can hang out at the outdoor bar, where they offer snacks and steak frites." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
