Sometimes the craving hits for perfectly cooked steak — and Michael Mina's Bourbon Steak is the go-to spot in Aventura. Steak may be the star of the meal, but it’s certainly not the only highlight, so make sure to accompany it with duck fat fries trio for the ultimate pairing.

While not a “steakhouse” in the traditional sense, this is still a must-visit spot for red meat lovers. This steakhouse, a New York City import, made a name for itself by serving up 45-day, dry-aged beef, presented in a Korean barbecue format that is prepared at the table on smokeless grills. The most popular order at Cote is the butcher’s feast boasting a chef’s choice of cuts along with different vegetables and kimchi, egg souffle, two stews, rice, and soft serve for $58 per person. But for those who want to go more high-brow, a 10-course steak omakase is available for $165 per person. 

Part steakhouse, part-clubstaurant, this is certainly a spot to grab a steak with a side of “vibe.” Go the decadent route and order a steak topped with king crab or truffle butter, and make sure to pair it with one of its many options of mac and cheese to round out the meal.

This glitzy South Beach mainstay, which is known just as much for its celeb spotting as it is for its cuisine, is a favorite for its plates like 48-ounce porter house, decadent sides such as creamed spinach and roasted garlic mashed potatoes, and lively bar. Save room for dessert, as the fried Oreos are worth the calories.

This South Beach steakhouse has gotten new larger digs over the past year, but is still best known for serving up steaks with equally impressive sides. Opt for a cut of meat, like the 40-day aged, Kansas City bone-in strip with a side of the restaurant’s popular lobster macaroni and cheese, or truffle whipped potatoes.

For wagyu purists, the appropriately named Wagyu Bar is a must-try spot. The unassuming, casual steakhouse located just a block from its sister butcher shop Meat N’ Bone serves up some of the most hard-to-find pieces of steak in the city. Start the meal with sushi topped with thinly sliced and perfectly charred slices of Japanese A5 Miyazaki-Gyu, before choosing from dozens of steak options from the traditional like a porterhouse or hanger, to a 45-plus day aged Kansas steak, to more than a dozen varieties of melt-in-your mouth wagyu steaks.

With multiple locations throughout Miami this homegrown Argentine steakhouse serves all the popular steakhouse fare — like tomahawks and skirt steak — along with dishes more popular in Argentina like parrillada, empanadas, and a large variety of wines.

This old-school Coral Gables steakhouse got a refresh over the past year, but still serves up all the classic eats steakhouses are known for: grilled prime aged steaks, stiff martinis, indulgent sides including a can't-miss Caesar salad. And save room for the Baked Alaska, prepared tableside — it's a spectacle in itself.
