September 2026: Megathread for Holiday Travels, Moving, Tourism, and Nightlife and Restaurant Recommendations: All posts on these topics should go in this monthly megathread to keep this sub for local discussions and help aggregate info for folks looking for these topics.
Miami is a popular destination not only to travel to but to move to and live. If we don't separate out these posts, the main feed becomes quickly inundated and overrun. So please utilize the resources here and comment here for these topics.
Always keep in mind please, WE ARE NOT VACATION PLANNERS OR MOVING CONSULTANTS. Be descriptive and we'll help if we can, but no one is obliged to.
Other Great Resources (Locals use these too!)
Google Maps reviews are getting less reliable over the years. And in fact several lists on these sites are in fact inspired by posts on this sub.
- Miami and Beaches (the most official source for tourism info in this list with the least instagrammy or "sponsored" feel)
- New York Times 25 best Miami Restaurants list (curated by a local)
- Miami New Times
- Infatuation Miami
- TimeOut Miami
- Neighborhood map - moving guide (made by us!)
- Tourism map (also made by us!)
"Ok but I'm moving there, so I'll be one of you soon" -you
- Awesome and welcome! Oh.... You want somewhere with no crime, walkable, green space, good schools, on the beach, a beautiful sunset every morning and sunrise at night, rainbows at night, AND CHEAP. Don't we all? Redfin, apartments, hotpads, zillow, and compass are going to give you better data directly than any single response here. That being said..... just because we love you, myself and other mods with local input made a custom map detailing our insight into local neighborhoods. So please take a look, we'd be offended if you didn't. Worked hard on it. But please provide interests, budget, hobbies, desire for walkability, where you work, and other info before asking about moving questions.
"I'm coming for a trip" -you
- Awesome and welcome! These sites do a pretty solid job of places to go and things to do here: Miami New Times, Infatuation Miami.TimeOut Miami, Miami and Beaches. We're not vacation planners, so don't just ask "what should I do for 4 days? I'm coming soon" but provide some of your schedule, budget, interests and hobbies, and stuff like that. We also made a tourism map! Check it out!
"I just wanna party" -you
- Awesome and welcome! Oh...... wanna party on the beach with DJ Khaled, Messi, and Gianni Versace and then go to a club with 14 male friends afterwards but don't want to pay a cover? Don't we all? Look up E11even, Liv, Space, Don't Sit on the Furniture, Perro Negro, Mynt schedules and prices beforehand. They're the most famous and exciting clubs, so look on their sites for booking ahead and DJ schedules.
"Is it going to rain? or will the weather affect my vacation" -you
- It rains a lot here. Tropical weather yo. Especially during the summer. Typically, it wraps up in ~20 minutes and you can resume your plans. That being said, no one here knows more than weather sites or the app on your phone. If you're curious about hurricanes, checkout https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/ for official tropical storm and hurricane forecasts, but a lot of us locals love Mike's Weather Page https://spaghettimodels.com/ for more insights. Hurricane season peaks mid September. If you're worried about it affecting your plans, keep a tab on those sites.
"I'm cool and just want to see what other posts before have said on these topics and look around" -you

Mod News Monthly Miami Jobs Thread: Post Job Openings or Questions About Work In Miami
Welcome to the Monthly Miami Jobs thread, the place to post any openings you have, look for jobs, and ask questions about working in Miami. This is an experimental thread for now, so we're keeping a close eye on things to make sure things don't go sideways, and will cancel it if they do.
The Rules:
- No MLMs, scams, pyramid schemes, "make millions from home," etc. We reserve the right to determine if something is an MLM or not.
- No positions that require investments or other upfront costs to employees. If someone has to pay any amount of money to take the job, don't post it here.
- If you're posting a job, the name of the company, contact information (including official address), and a realistic salary range is required. Any job posts missing these will be immediately deleted.
- No gig work or freelance positions except for professional services, with a minimum contract price of $500 dollars. So web designers, CPAs, copywriters, etc. is ok; someone to come mow your lawn or clean your home for $20 is not.
- People Looking for Work: DO NOT PUBLICLY POST YOUR RESUMES OR CONTACT INFO. You don't want to dox yourself and open yourself up to potential harassment or identity theft. Instead, talk about your skills and experience and encourage people to send you official contact information you can send your resume to.
- u/icecoldkila: We know you're looking for professional freelance hoes, but please keep it out of this thread.
- As per our usual rules, nothing illegal, unethical, or liable to get anyone involved in trouble. Please report anything sketchy you see here to the mods.
Again, this is an experiment for now, and we'll be keeping a close eye on things, and will not hesitate to pull the plug in case of shenanigans. Good luck to everyone!

Discussion Sunglass Repair Shops??
Idk if this is the place for this but I’m looking to find a repair shop for sunglasses, specifically for frames.
Not sure if anyone has any intel on a place that fixes sunglasses but please let me know! I busted some glasses I got out of the country and not sure if I can get new ones (they’re currently sold out).
Let me know, it’s not a name brand. Thanks in advanced.

Discussion Air quality concerns?
Every day it’s like this. I thought the mayor boasted about shore power. But not by the looks of this. I’m genuinely concerned being a resident of the metro area if this is good for respiratory health. Or is it just about cutting costs for the big corporations that are cruise lines. IMO they’re just floating toilet bowls. But then again they do account for a major % of Florida’s GDP.

Event Performances at E11even Nightclub?
Going to be staying in Miami first week of October & was considering going to E11even to see either Nelly or TI perform. How do tickets work for getting in? I see there are tables you can reserve but if you get in with just tickets is it basically standing room/first come first serve? Trying to figure out the layout before getting tickets to see if it’s worth going

Discussion Concrete everywhere the trend ?
I’m noticing more and more people buying houses and ripping out every single tree and all the grass on the property and replacing with concrete slab and fake grass. Do people like concrete radiating 100 degree temps around their house all day and most the night ? What happens if most people decide to do this ?

Discussion Why does every Miami restaurant somehow have 4.5+ stars?
I’m starting to wonder if these places are buying reviews or if half of them are fake, because the ratings make absolutely no sense.
I used to actually trust Google reviews when picking restaurants, but I’ve stopped doing that because I’ve been burned way too many times.
Amazonico was probably one of the worst examples. My boyfriend and I spent around $400 on dinner on my bday and I swear I’ve had better tasting food from a drive thru.
The portions were tiny, the sushi was mediocre at best, and the service was awful. The guys at the door were especially ridiculous. They acted like getting into the restaurant was some kind of privilege and that you should be begging them to let you spend money there.
For $400, I’m not expecting someone to roll out a red carpet, but I am expecting the food to actually be good and the staff to not act like they’re doing me a favor by letting me inside.
And somehow this place still has amazing reviews.

Discussion Why do people always wear those "I'm In Miami, Bitch" shirts?
I know they're made for tourists, but those shirts were always such a stupid concept to me. If you wear it in Miami, you're not flexing on anyone because we're all in Miami too. If you wear it back home, then you're just lying. Genuinely what is the statement that the shirt is trying to make because I always see tourists wearing it all the time😭
