Average streetside cafe – This cafe was personally recommended to us by a Miami local, and we saw it on a travel special on South Beach. We decided to check it out for the people-watching on Lincoln Road. Of all the restaurants on Lincoln Road, only this place and Nexxt Cafe were busy at 2 in the afternoon. The people watching was terrific. We sat at an outdoor table on the edge, which was nice even though it was very hot. We ordered a beer and glass of wine to start, neither of which was particularly cold. The menu is expan... read more

service was terrible – we thought that this would be a good place to people watch while on a recent visit to south beach. well, we were right about the people watching but the food was not good and the service was excuciatingly slow. after we were seated, no server came to offer us water or a menu for a good 15 minutes. a server finally came and said, "is someone helping you?" when we said, "no", he replied "i guess i'll take your order." "i guess"?!?!?! c'mon! food came waaaaaaaaaay later and it was not good. it took our se... read more

3 Words: Cuban Meatloaf Sandwich – I vacationed in Miami over the summer, had an incredible lunch here. The place is great for people watching and is located in a promenade similar to Third Street - Santa Monica (to all my cali diners). When blessed with the opportunity to visit South Beach, please check out this restaurant. Try the Cuban Meatloaf Sandwich, huge and delicious.

It's all about jazz at this lively eatery, where pooches are as welcome as people. – In Short Like the News Cafe, its Ocean Drive sibling, Van Dyke Cafe on Lincoln Road is one of Miami's premier people-watching outposts. Inside, it boasts hardwood floors, French doors and an upstairs jazz bar. Outside there's a vast outdoor seating area lined with trees. Van Dyke has a nearly identical menu to News Cafe's, including burgers, sandwiches, salads, omelettes, plus the delicious thin-crust goat cheese pizza. And for dessert they ... read more

Just O.K. – No doubt that the outdoor cafe is definitely a great place for people watching, and the live music scene is great, but that's about it. The food isn't all that great. We went there for dinner late on a Friday night with a party of ten. Initially, we were told that we could sit upstairs and eat (where the musicians play), but what they didn't tell us up front was that there was a cover charge (I think that it was $10 or $15). So we had to wait [again] to be seated in the main dining area. As far as the food went, ... read more
