La Camaronera in Miami bills itself as a “seafood joint and fish market” that has been “serving the freshest seafood in South Florida since 1973.” The restaurant’s most famous item is their version of the “Minuta,” a classic, quick, and tasty fish sandwich that reflects Florida’s rich Cuban culinary influence.
La Camaronera’s Minuta features a freshly caught snapper the menu describes as “perfectly seasoned and lightly breaded, fried to a golden crisp and served with raw onions, ketchup and tartar sauce on a fresh Cuban bun.”
The New York Times notes that La Minuta contains “a whole gutted fried snapper, minus the head but including the tail” and that the sandwich is “both hard to miss and hard to resist.”

Walrus Rodeo in Miami proudly describes itself as “not just a pizzeria” and offers what it calls a “unique contemporary wood-fired cuisine, old world wine, relaxed hospitality.”
And, yes, they serve wood-fired pizzas such as their signature pie topped with anchovies, spicy tomatoes, and maple-brown butter; or the “cornballer za” featuring chanterelle, smoked buffalo mozzarella, and pickled Fresno.
Pizza, though, is not what attracted the New York Times to Walrus Rodeo; it was a slice of lasagna laced with “wilted mustard greens, tangy stracchino, lamb ragù hinting of moussaka.”
“The food here toys with your expectations in this way, with dishes that look familiar, only to reveal flavors you didn’t predict,” writes Brett Anderson in the Times.
