Top 5 Favorite Places

Sunset Harbor

Sunset Harbour is where locals go when we want a good meal! A savory and sociable corner on the bay side of Miami Beach, Sunset Harbor boasts amazing sunset and water views from its marina and namesake. Walking distance from Lincoln Road, Sunset Harbour has become one of Miami Beach’s most popular boutique neighborhoods for shopping and dining.

Bodega Taqueria y Tequila

Bodega Taqueria y Tequila is where I go when I want a vibe that's lively yet familiar. Enjoy some delicious tacos and burritos, then make your way to their speakeasy-style bar and lounge tucked inside through a port-a-potty for their daily happy hour. This destination is full of surprises!

Nathan’s Bar

Nathan's isn't just any gay bar. Branching out during the pandemic from his beloved post at Twist nightclub, owner Nathan Paul Smith created his own video bar, where patrons can dance, sing and travel to their favorite TV shows like “Friends” and “The Brady Bunch.” This upbeat, nostalgic bar frequented by a good mix of locals and tourists is just what the community needed and its always easy to get in.

Semilla

This modern neighborhood gastro-pub with designer decor has one of the best Happy Hours in terms of their pricing, offerings, portion size, and flavors! Take in Semilla's great ambiance while you indulge in their Latin-American influenced tapas (Semilla means seed in Spanish) like Mini Tuna Tacos, Potatoes & Cheese Croquetas, Calamari and Chicken/Veggie Potstickers. The Truffle Parmesan Pasta, Wagyu Beef sliders, and Sheperd’s Pie are just some of the popular entrees created by owner and French Chef Fredric Joulin.

Hôtel Gaythering

As the name suggests, Hôtel Gaythering is a hotel with creative programming for the local gay community. Located two blocks on the west end of Lincoln Road, and only a 15-minute walk to Ocean Drive, this hip hotel housed in a MiMo (Miami Modernist architecture) style 1950s building host game nights where all are welcomed at the trendy yet approachable bar. Karaoke and Bingo are my favorite game nights!
