Where to dine, shop and play in Sunset Harbour
From its prime location on the bay-side of Miami Beach, Sunset Harbour boasts trendy shops, intimate restaurants and some of the destination’s most beautiful water views. Just a few steps from Lincoln Road, Sunset Harbour has become one of Miami Beach’s most popular boutique neighborhoods for shopping and dining.
Head to this neighborhood hot spot for an afternoon stroll, peek in and out of its storefronts, grab a cup of coffee or sip on a smoothie for a relaxing break from the bustle of South Beach.
Head to Juvia for amazing views and even better food
Where to Eat
Sunset Harbour is known for its eclectic lineup of restaurants. Head to Sushi Garage for Japanese fare with a Miami twist. Order everything from sushi and hand rolls to tempura dishes, different varieties of grilled fish, noodles, soups and salads made with locally sourced ingredients. Started by the same unstoppable team behind Lincoln Road’s Juvia, this neighborhood spot fuses good food with trendy vibes – and it's housed in an old auto repair shop.
For another spin on Asian cuisine, NaiYaRa is all the rage. It offers a glamorous take on traditional Thai food, serving up options like Pad Thai, taki taki rolls, Wagyu sliders and much more.
Another option, La Moderna, takes you to Rome. Helmed by the same team that owns and operates Fratelli La Bufala, this intimate Italian spot promises delectable signature dishes like linguine lobster with cherry tomatoes and thyme; Italian risotto porcini with black truffle; and pollo suprema with baby spinach and smoked cheese.
Just a few doors down, you'll find Icebox Café. This popular neighborhood joint started as a bakery. Now it’s known for its “new American” fare and global menu. It’s always packed.
Sunset Harbour is also home to an outpost of Panther Coffee, everyone’s favorite small-batch roasted coffee spot.
The butter crab rolls at Pubbelly Sushi are a must-have
Finally, for comfort food like you’ve never had before, head to Pubbelly Sushi, which has a happy hour that promises sexy gastro pub fare like pork belly, short ribs, crispy salmon rolls and more.
Where to Shop
In between Sunset Harbour’s popular restaurants, gyms, yoga studios and juice bars, this trendy area boasts some of the best boutique shopping in Miami Beach. Head to Eberjey for Miami’s own lingerie, loungewear and swimwear brand. Browse through beautiful nightgowns, bralettes, bikinis and more as you breathe in the sweet smell of its scented candles (they’re reason alone to visit).
Enjoy Sunset Harbour by water
What To Do
Sunset Harbour's location on the calm waters of Biscayne Bay means it's the perfect spot to get out on the water. Rent a paddleboard, kayak, or even an electric surfboard and enjoy views of Miami's skyline and waterfront homes. For a more relaxing afternoon, check out the area's various yoga studios, like greenmonkey yoga or Modo Yoga. And with the beach just minutes away, you're in for the perfect day of dining, shopping and relaxing.
