Mi Tierra Bar & Kitchen

Mi Tierra Bar & Kitchen brings Dominican home cooking to a shopping-center spot in Kendall's West End, inside Miller Square. What began as a food truck on Coral Way in 2021 grew into a full-service restaurant known for mofongo, churrasco, sancocho, and a Quisqueya Roll that mixes salami, avocado, fried cheese, and plantains in a sushi-style presentation.

The dining room is casual and cozy, with a bar pouring mojitos and fresh-fruit cocktails, and a kitchen that sends out empanadas, chicharrón de pollo, and picadera samplers for the table. Expect a lively lunch and dinner crowd of locals and visiting families, high chairs and a kids' menu for little ones, and servers who walk newcomers through the menu.

Prices run moderate for Miami, typically $20-80 a plate, making it an easy pick for a weeknight dinner or a weekend group outing. Free parking is available in the shopping center lot, and the restaurant has been featured in Eater Miami's guide to Kendall dining.
