"The Ritz-Carlton, Key Biscayne’s Thanksgiving feast kicks off with cheeses and cured meats, plus a raw bar with oysters, lobster, and caviar. Small bites like Hudson Valley foie gras and butternut squash panna cotta lead into seasonal salads and mains, including roasted turkey, coffee-rubbed ribeye, and butternut squash ravioli. A kid-friendly menu with Southern fried chicken tenders and mac and cheese keeps younger diners happy, while bottomless drinks and desserts—think pumpkin whoopie pies and chocolate mousse entremets—add a sweet finish. Two seatings are available: 12:30 p.m. to 4 p.m. and 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. Price: $185 per person, $69 per child ages 5-12." - Alona Martinez

As the name implies, the focus is on coastal cuisine so dishes like Florida ceviche, seared octopus, and salmon are expertly prepared. Meat lovers will find plenty to indulge in too: the roasted lamb made in the Josper oven or filet mignon with roasted onions are both keepers." - Alona Martinez
