"Miami is saturated with sceney steakhouses that are all sure to be sardine cans during Art Basel. But very few of those places do it better than the city’s original sceney steakhouse: Prime 112. And if you're looking for a see-and-be-seen spot, this is still one of South Beach's best. Fair warning: it'll probably be mayhem during Basel. But maybe that's what you like? Plus, if you do get sent to the bar to wait for your table, good news: there's complimentary bar bacon. Just know that reservations have to be made over the phone." - Ryan Pfeffer
"First, let us be clear: Prime 112 is a scene. The South Beach restaurant gets absolutely slammed on the weekends, packed full of both legit celebrities and people who have convinced themselves that they are celebrities. Maybe this sounds like your own personal nightmare. Fair enough. But Prime 112 is still a classic Miami see-and-be-seen spot - and the steak is good too. If this is the kind of dining experience you’ve missed over the last year, then make a reservation and put on something shiny." - Ryan Pfeffer
"Looking for a one-pound Kobe meatball? Prime Italian has exactly that and it’s served over a hefty pile of spaghetti. This show stopping meatball is just as tasty as it is large. It’s finished off with a large spoonful of ricotta and basil on top. Show up hungry or ready to share Lady and The Tramp style, because it’s just that kind of meal." - Amber Love Bond
"The lasagna at Prime Italian is extra saucy with tradition red sauce, layered with Kobe beef bolognese, and plenty of mozzarella cheese. It’s a classic Italian dish is a staple at the South of Fifth restaurant. Pro tip: check it out during Miami Spice (yearly, during August and September) to score the ultimate deal." - Amber Love Bond
"Bring a hearty appetite and thirst to Prime Fish’s weekend brunch inclusive of bottomless mimosas, bellinis, prosecco, and bloody Marys plus fresh juices, teas, coffee, and soft drinks for $59. Pile on the offerings from the myriad of buffet stations plus choice of an a la carte dish such as the egg foo yung omelette with rock shrimp, Chinese sausage, shiitake, bean sprouts, and green onion." - Stacy Moya
