"Not only does Verde have one of the best views in Miami, but it’s casual enough to show up in shorts and a tank top. The restaurant is located in the back of the Pérez Art Museum and has a beautiful, uninterrupted view of Biscayne Bay. That’s really why you should come here (and why you shouldn’t sit inside), but the food—mostly salads, pizza, and sandwiches—is solid." - ryan pfeffer, mariana trabanino, virginia otazo
"Located on the first floor of Perez Art Museum Miami (PAMM), Verde is a modern, casual dining waterfront restaurant & bar and an urban retreat. We recommend dining outdoors (although not mid Summer). The patio is an even more gratifying experience, surrounded by hanging gardens, set amidst a contrast of expansive concrete and wood architecture by renown architects Herzog & de Meuron, offering spectacular views of Miami Beach and the Port of Miami. If you get lucky you may even spot a dolphin (or two)." - Lemon Yellow
"To us, Verde is just a perfectly fine museum restaurant with an excellent waterfront view. But to the limitless mind of a four-year-old, this place is an adventure land where you must climb up the stairs to escape the approaching pirate ships. It’s right next to the PAMM, which is free for kids six and under. Once they inevitably get sick of postmodern commentaries on late-stage capitalism, you can take them to the Frost Museum. It’s just across the street and they can touch sting rays." - mariana trabanino, ryan pfeffer
"Offering sweeping views of Biscayne Bay, this waterfront restaurant outside the Pérez Art Museum Miami serves a rotating seasonal menu that includes dishes like smoked swordfish carpaccio, mushroom risotto, and butternut squash soup. Pizza lovers will enjoy the varied selection, including “First Love,” a blend of stracciatella cheese, tomato sauce, prosciutto, arugula, and sundried tomato puree." - Allison Ramirez
"This downtown Miami restaurant’s espresso martini combines Cuban espresso, Stoli vanilla vodka, chocolate notes from Kahlua, and creme de cacao. The drink is shaken until frothy and is available daily for breakfast and brunch for $13." - Juliana Accioly
