Yardbird Table & Bar

"What better way to wrap up a meal at this Southern food staple than with a slice of creamy key lime pie? The candy lime zest topping adds an extra amount of zing, and the bonus serving of Chantilly cream enriches every bite." - Alona Martinez

"Yardbird serves those big, heavy Southern dishes you know will put you out for the next six hours, but you happily eat anyway because they’re good. Fried chicken is the main attraction here (and the best thing on the menu by far). The best way to get it is in the chicken and waffles. Brunch here is also a good option if you want to get way too full on a lazy Sunday morning. This place can get a bit touristy and has the personality of a chain restaurant, but it's not as chaotic as most of the surrounding Lincoln Road restaurants, the service is good, and they have lots of whiskey and bourbon if you're into that." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo

"Fried chicken is the main attraction at this Southern American spot, so be sure to order a dish that involves it. This place is probably going to be filled with tourists, but it's a lot better than the options available at the nearby Lincoln Road. So eat here and then take a stroll down Lincoln Road to recover, where people will be too busy fighting their way through the Apple Store to judge your “I ate too many biscuits” face." - ryan pfeffer

"Those craving a Thanksgiving meal laden with Southern country cooking will be well served at this Miami Beach staple. The herb-roasted turkey dinner is served with smooth mashed potatoes, sweet glazed carrots, tangy cranberry compote, and hearty giblet gravy. Consider complementing your meal with a slice of brown butter bourbon pumpkin pie for an additional $16. Alternatively, a full Yardbird Fried Chicken For The Family is priced at $150, and the pie is available on its own for $40. Those preferring to dine at home can pre-order meals in two sizes: a small serving feeds 2-4 for $360, and a large one suitable for 6-8 comes at $590. Price: $42 per person for Herb-Roasted Turkey Dinner" - Alona Martinez

"This rustic-chic staple in Miami Beach has been a regular go-to for those craving Southern food like skillet cornbread and shrimp and grits, but it’s the fried chicken that shines brightest. Order it straight up or paired with waffles (and chilled, spiced watermelon). There’s also a gluten-free option available." - Alona Martinez
