"This Mexican Art Deco-styled cantina offers diners an upscale dining experience. Start with the tortilla soup with pork cracklings or the burrata with candied pumpkin seeds and balsamic-vanilla chipotle reduction. Continue to the huachinango, a butterflied whole snapper served with white rice, or the short rib braseada. Round out the meal with dessert and a beverage from the bar specializing in tequila and mezcal." - Stacy Moya
"This chic Brickell restaurant offers guacamole in a small cast iron bowl, perfect to nosh on while enjoying the waterfront view. There are a plethora of specialty margaritas like passion fruit, coconut, and tamarind to enjoy as well, or, for those feeling extra indulgent, the millionaire ($100) and billionaire ($140) are made with premium spirits." - Alona Martinez
"Located in Brickell, this swanky Mexican spot turns traditional tacos into a feast of gawk-worthy masterpieces. Go there for dinner, and pair that “Queso Fundido” with a passion fruit margarita. It will make the queso more fundido." - Amber Love Bond
"This elegant restaurant in Downtown Miami will pair live mariachi entertainment with its classical Mexican fare this Cinco de Mayo from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. Along with dishes like grilled octopus and short rib braseada, patrons can enjoy cocktails like passion fruit margarita or the Millionaire Margarita, made with Don Julio 1942 tequila, or better yet, the Billionaire Margarita featuring Premium Clase Azul Añejo tequila." - Alona Martinez
"Mexico elevates almost any occasion to a party, so this upscale spot on Brickell Avenue does not disappoint. The three-course Christmas special menu includes carrot soup with garlic croutons, turkey breast stuffed with bacon, plums, apples, walnuts, chipotle sauce, guajillo chile mashed potatoes, and grilled veggies. A chocolate mousse acorn dessert ends things with elegance, and of course, there will be a full-band mariachi, keeping the festive spirit going throughout the meal. Price: $65 (includes a glass of wine)" - Alona Martinez
