MIAMI — Miami Spice returns Friday for its 25th year, giving diners a chance to enjoy prix-fixe meals at some of South Florida’s most popular restaurants at reduced prices.

The annual dining program features participating restaurants offering special brunch, lunch and dinner menus through September, with several newcomers joining this year’s lineup.

Among the restaurants making their Miami Spice debut are Daniel’s Miami, Yamashiro, Maple & Ash and Zuma.

Daniel’s Miami is offering four Miami Spice dining experiences, including $40 brunch and lunch menus and dinner options ranging from $65 to $95.

Diners can choose from dishes including Wagyu beef empanadas, grilled branzino, braised Wagyu beef short rib and Florida grits-crusted grouper, along with specialty cocktails created for Miami Spice.

Yamashiro is also participating for the first time with a $40 Sunday brunch and $95 dinner menu featuring Japanese-inspired dishes, including its signature black cod.

Maple & Ash is also joining Miami Spice for the first time, giving diners the chance to experience the luxury steakhouse’s tableside service and signature dishes at special prices.

“We build everything around fun,” said Maple & Ash executive chef Kam Losonsky. “You’re getting a luxurious experience.”

The restaurant’s Miami Spice menu includes tuna tartare and filet mignon with truffle.

“You’re getting options you really aren’t gonna get anywhere else, especially for this price point,” Losonsky said.

Other participating restaurants include Jaya at The Setai, which is offering Asian-inspired lunch and dinner menus featuring dishes such as Pad Thai, Panang curry and Korean barbecue galbi short rib.

Zuma is offering lunch and dinner menus priced at $35 and $60. During Miami Spice, guests can enjoy the restaurant’s signature Maple Cheesecake from Zuma Vail, along with fan favorite dishes from last year, including:

  1. Chicken karaage with chili lemon dressing
  2. Prawn and black cod gyoza
  3. Salmon teriyaki sauce and pickled cucumber

CATCH Miami Beach is serving a $65 dinner menu with seafood, sushi and steak selections, while Michelin-starred Le Jardinier returns with French-inspired three-course lunches and dinners.

Also participating are Michelin-starred Stubborn Seed, where diners can enjoy a three-course dinner featuring dishes such as truffle chicken and citrus pavlova, and Michael’s Genuine Food & Drink, which is offering three-course lunches and dinners with menus that rotate throughout the season to showcase fresh, locally sourced ingredients.
