Nine Inspectors’ Favorites in Florida in 2025

"Described as a solid neighborhood gem showing great creativity, this contemporary spot in Audubon Park feels instantly welcoming, starting with a warm first bite from the kitchen delivered moments after arrival. The ever-changing, shared plates-style menu makes for an enjoyable, relaxed meal. Dishes show off both comfort and inventiveness, like warm potato naan served with whipped chicken skin butter and marmalade, and impossibly tender lamb shoulder paired with butternut squash purée and sautéed greens. Dessert steals the show by taking the classic fries-and-milkshake combination and turning it on its head with panna cotta, crispy sunchoke, cocoa nibs, and diced French fries." - Nancy DePalma
