Granted, it is definitely a given that a reputation for great food would be among the requirements in choosing the Florida family hotel you’ll be using for your holiday in the Sunshine State. Still, it would be quite a shame not to venture out to dinner once in a while. After all, the local cuisine– with all its ethnic diversity, multicultural influences, fresh ingredients and just plain great cooking– is one of the reasons people love going on Florida holidays!

In fact, in the Sunshine State, going out to eat to sample the wide variety of tastes is among the top things to do in the area! From French-influenced fine dining and nouvelle cuisine, to the more homey Southern, Latin and African cuisines, there is no end to the different kinds of flavours you’ll find to indulge your craving for good food. You’ll probably find a wonderful restaurant inside your Florida family hotel, but here are just a few suggestions outside it to try as well.

Classic Excellence

Beach Bistro on Holmes Beach on Anna Maria Island tops the list of excellent restaurants to eat in – and for good reason! It’s the one restaurant with the highest ratings for food and service in the entire state. This eight-time winner of the Florida Golden Spoon award (bestowed on the Top 20 restaurants in the state) also boasts one of the best wine lists in the country, and has been called the number one restaurant on the Gulf Coast. It offers no-nonsense, perfectly-cooked classic food such as its salmon, lamb and grouper, along with a great view and exceptional service; which all combine to offer one of the best dining experiences you’ll ever have.

Home-Style Succulence

Joe’s Stone Crab Restaurant in Miami, known as the most popular restaurant in the city, is one of those must-eat-at dining places every holiday place has. According to many visitors, no visit to Miami is complete without a stop at this 99-year old Miami icon. Established as a lunch counter in 1913, Joe’s is definitely an enticement to eat out of your Florida family hotel. Why not try its famous succulent specialty– what else– Florida stone crabs.

Fine Dining And Wining

If you’re looking for seafood, but with a more upscale, adventurously contemporary flavour in a setting that is elegant yet not too intimidating, Pisces in the historic Old Town District of Key West may be just what you’ve been looking for. A small boutique restaurant with warm, wonderful ambience, this fine dining favourite and consistent Golden Spoon and Wine Spectator awardee is the perfect place for an intimate dinner for two. Its signature dish, the Lobster Mango Tango, with its hint of saffron and other spices, has been a crowd pleaser for the last 15 years, although its new offerings such as the Raspberry Duck and Yellowtail Atocha are catching up with their own set of fans as well. And yes, they also have Filet Mignon as well as foie gras.

Florida is well-known for its diverse and flavoursome cuisine and you will find many wonderful, authentic restaurants close to your Florida family hotel – and often within it as well!
