Fisheries Dockside
Kelly R: This waterfront seafood spot is perfect for families, with a more casual vibe than the dinner-only 15th Street Fisheries restaurant upstairs. Kids can feed giant tarpon right from the docks, with shrimp purchased at the adjacent store.
Jaxson's Ice Cream Parlour & Restaurant
Kelly R: This fun restaurant for families is filled with charming touches, from the the license plate collection lining the walls to the country store with candy and toys. Come hungry, because the comfort food portions are big and you'll definitely want to leave room for ice cream!
Ms. Cheezious
Kristy Pepping: Ms. Cheezious started as a food truck and after some great success in a short amount of time, they opened up a brick and mortar store. Their menu features all things grilled cheese. Examples of menu options include the crabby cheese melt, short rib melt and mac n melt. Or if you don't like any of the preexisting options, you can always build your own!
Kings Dining and Entertainment
Kristy Pepping: King's Dining and Entertainment is a fun restaurant for kids that offers bowling along with great food options!
94th Aero Squadron
Kristy Pepping: The 94th Aero Squadron is an aviation-themed restaurant. Overlooking the runway of the Miami International Airport, enjoy a fantastic view of the planes taking off and landing at the 94th Aero Squadron Restaurant in Miami. There are even headphones available so your family can listen to the air traffic ground control.
Sweet Dogs
Kelly R: This unassuming local spot is a family favorite for its creative hot dog options, piled high with all sorts of outrageous toppings. Grab a bag of one of their gourmet popcorn flavors to bring home!

Kristy Pepping: The Sugar Factory is a fun restaurant for kids in Miami! The menu serves everything throughout the day from pancakes, crepes, salads, and burgers to an array desserts sure to satisfy the sweetest of tooths.
Big Pink
Kelly R: This popular South Beach diner is a family favorite for its welcoming (and noisy) atmosphere, huge portions, and enormous menu that has something to make everyone happy.
