Strada is a forgettable Italian restaurant in Coconut Grove. It’s a pretty big spot with some pleasant sidewalk seating and a good location - but you can do a lot better when it comes to eating in the Grove. The pasta is bland and not fresh at all. The creamy lobster sauce in the ravioli d’aragosta congeals into an unsexy mass of goop before you’ve even finished a third of it. And it’s all way more expensive than it should be.
Barton G. is a grossly expensive restaurant that serves bad food alongside ridiculous props.
El Carajo is a Spanish restaurant in the back of a gas station where you can pick out a bottle of wine from the store and eat tapas.
Monty’s in Coconut Grove feels like a Key West raw bar, minus the annoying drive. Come here for the views, but don’t expect the city’s best seafood.
Glass and Vine is a Latin fusion restaurant on the edge of a park in Coconut Grove, and you should definitely sit outside.
