Re: SoBe restaurants
Bev, try Monty Trainers Stone Crabs as I sometimes like it better than Joe's...it is indoors/outdoors and has live music on the deck overlooking the boats on the water, in Coconut Grove looking out to Key Biscayne. Great alternative to Joe's.
Also, Lu reminded me as this is a 'girls time' to look at these very carefully:
1~China Grill, I think on Washington, for fusion induced chinese/french, etc
2~Tantra on Pennsylvania, her favorite, look up the word Tantra-fabulous food, a little scene, not over the top but interesting-living grass floor throughout and you never know who you'll see!
3~Nemos on Collins, very, very good at convenient/fun/not loud
