Miami is known for its amazing food and lively atmosphere. But finding a restaurant that can please everyone in your family is often challenging. To help you navigate the many dining options available in this city, below is a guide listing seven restaurants that offer the perfect balance of food and fun for everyone in your family!
Ms. Cheezious
Kids and adults alike will be fawning over the melty, gooey, and creative grilled cheese sandwiches served here. This restaurant is now the permanent location for the award-winning food truck and continues to serve favorites like the “Frito Pie Melt,” which is made with homemade chili, American cheese, and Fritos on sourdough bread. The back patio allows kids some space to run around a bit, but you can also keep them anchored to the table with the classic board games the restaurant has on hand for guests.
Edge, Steak & Bar
Situated inside the Four Seasons Hotel Miami, Edge’s kitchen consistently produces some of the best meals in the city, including dishes like the 24-ounce saw cut ribeye and the Florida seafood cazuela. If you are bringing your children along, make sure you reserve a seat outside because kids can explore the restaurant’s spice and herb garden as well as roast s’mores on the terrace’s fire pit.
Sugar Factory American Brasserie
The name says it all. Sugar — everyone’s favorite ingredient — is in no shortage here. The bulk bins in the front overflow with tempting sweets, and as you make your way to the brasserie, your senses will be overwhelmed with the sweet smell of pancakes, rainbow-bun sliders, and whimsical sundaes. These sugary treats are more than enough to please your children’s sweet tooths and adults can also indulge in candy-filled cocktails.

Adults can choose from a selection of inventive comfort food dishes. Then you can all go partake in bowling, air hockey, pool, and all the other fun games offered at this location.
Amelia’s 1931
Guests compare the fresh, authentic food here to dining at their grandmother’s house. The ambiance is small and cozy — the walls are adorned with family photos and vintage tchotchkes are scattered throughout the space. Children will enjoy dishes like the “Cuban Tots,” which are smothered in cheese and corn. Adults will love Asian-Cuban fusion dishes like the steamed buns stuffed with aji amarillo chicken.
Lime Fresh Mexican Grill
It’s always a fiesta when your kids can eat free. On Tuesday nights head down to this fast-casual Mexican joint. Not only do kids eat free with the purchase of an adult entree, but there is also face painting, balloons, and an entertaining clown, which makes for a night of fun.
11th Street Diner
For classic diner food that never fails to satisfy all palates, this is the place to go.
