Miami Spice 2016 is here! The annual promotion, running from August 1 through September 30, offers three-course prix-fixe lunches ($23) and dinners ($39) at many of Miami’s finest restaurants. This year, more than 240 restaurants are participating – the most ever, and up from last year’s 181. Here is Part II of the menus of our picks for the best restaurants to check out in Miami Spice 2016. We selected the more high-end restaurants in town, as Miami Spice is a wonderful opportunity to try these places without busting the budget. We’ve personally been to them all throughout the year so can give our stamp of approval . Please click here for Part 1 and stay tuned for Part 3!
