Color me still underwhelmed by much of the South Beach dining scene lots of flash, but frankly longer on attitude than substance. Having said that, in recent years things have started to evolve a bit in good ways. Nonetheless, when last weekend I strolled for the first time into Eden South Beach, an eatery opened at the end of October in the space once occupied by longtime local culinary darling Talula, let's just say my expectations were less than stratospheric.

Pierre's is quite possibly one of the most romantic places to dine in South Florida and a relatively short drive from Miami, well worth the "escape" from urban life. The restaurant and lounge is located on a private beach with gorgeous sunsets over tranquil Florida Bay.

by Barbara Ramsay Orr

One of the nicest small resorts is Maca Bana, a boutique hotel with seven romantic villas on a hill overlooking the beach and sea. And it's not just a great place to stay: It's a wonderful place to eat.
