Pipo’s Choice burger

Throughout the country cities like Miami have suspended dining room service to help prevent the spread of COVID-19, with takeout and delivery the new reality for many restaurants. But that doesn’t mean Miamians still can’t get their burger fix. The good news, too, is that these handheld meals travel well, making them an optimal and easy candidate for takeout. Here are some top contenders to take home.

As always in these times, check the social media handles and websites for details like menu items and delivery hours as they may change as these restaurants adapt to these new business models. Also, always remember to tip well and call before using a delivery platform such as Postmates or UberEats, which comes with hefty fees for consumers and restaurants.

Editor’s note: outdoor dining is still permitted for restaurants in Miami-Dade County, and for those offering outdoor seating it is noted below.
