Upland
Upland is where to go to escape the clubs and chain steakhouses of South Pointe, while also enjoying some really good pizza and pasta.
Joe’s has been around forever and at some point you’ll probably end up here with your family or because everyone you asked told you it was a Miami requirement. The century-old restaurant has white table cloths and plenty of sunburnt parties of 10. But if you want something more casual, check out Joe’s Take-Away next door. It’s the exact same food, just with fewer tuxedo-clad waiters. Besides the crab, they have surprisingly great fried chicken and since you’re already eating with your hands, you might as well continue.
