Tucked in a Pinecrest strip mall, Platea is a Peruvian steakhouse where prime cuts meet ceviche in a cozy yet classy setting, perfect for any occasion.
"Platea is a Peruvian steakhouse, which means you can share a delicious ceviche bowl or tostones topped with wagyu picanha saltado before cutting into a perfectly cooked ribeye. It ticks all the right steakhouse boxes with attentive service, a big selection of prime cuts, plenty of sides, and a very nice wine list. But it’s not pretentious. It’s perfect for a nice date, a family night out, or dinner with a group of friends. The restaurant has “weekly experiences'' like surf and turf specials and live music on Thursdays. But the best day to go is Tuesday, when a $180 64oz tomahawk steak is marked down to $150—and comes with a salad, one side, and dessert. The steak is perfect for two people, and in case you forgot what kind of steakhouse this is, it’s plated on top of aji amarillo sauce." - virginia otazo, ryan pfeffer

"Far away from Miami’s bright lights in the quiet neighborhood of Pinecrest, diners will find this one-of-a-kind Peruvian steakhouse. Not only is the meat superb, but so are the prices. Take, for example, the “Tomahawk Tuesdays” dinner: a three-course meal for two revolving around a 64-ounce USDA Prime tomahawk steak all for $150. Beyond that, there is a full line of steak options all of which are marinaded in a Peruvian-style sauce that makes them all the more special." - Eater Staff

"This Pinecrest restaurant, tucked away in a shopping center off US1, blends fine dining and a family-friendly atmosphere. Standouts on the menu include the delicately prepared fried ceviche with hake, jalea crust, aji amarillo, and creamy leche de tigre, alongside seared scallops adorned with aji amarillo and chalaquita. The Prime Dino-Rib is a distinctive offering for steak lovers, combining traditional steakhouse fare with an exciting Peruvian twist." - Stacy A. Moya
