Verde

Verde sits inside the Pérez Art Museum Miami, serving New American fare with a strong Venezuelan accent from executive chef Valeri Fuentes. The menu leans on empanadas, arepas, tiradito, bao buns, and a well-liked Verde Burger, with dishes often inspired by the art on display just steps away.

Expect indoor and outdoor seating with sweeping views of Biscayne Bay, a casual-upscale vibe that works for a museum lunch or a longer dinner, and a coffee bar for pastries and espresso drinks on the go. Prices run moderate for a museum restaurant, with small plates and handhelds in the $14-25 range and large plates up to the low $30s.

Downtown Miami locals use it for weekday lunch meetings and weekend brunch, while tourists visiting PAMM or the Frost Science Museum stop in before or after exploring the galleries. Outdoor tables, a full bar with cocktails and wine, and frequent happy hours add to the appeal, making Verde a dependable stop whether you're there for the art or just the food.
