Miami’s biggest culinary celebration is back—and this year, it’s bigger than ever. Miami Spice Restaurant Months returns from August 1 through September 30, marking its 25th anniversary with more than 300 participating restaurants, new premium dining experiences and exclusive collaborations that make this milestone season one of the program’s most exciting yet.
For two months, locals and visitors will have the opportunity to enjoy specially curated three-course prix-fixe menus at some of Greater Miami and Miami Beach’s most sought-after restaurants, all at savings of at least 30% compared to regular menu prices. The 2026 edition also introduces Miami Spice Reserve, an elevated tier offering premium tasting menus and exclusive chef-driven experiences.
A culinary tradition 25 years in the making
What began in 2002 as an initiative to support Miami’s restaurant industry during the slower summer months has grown into one of South Florida’s signature annual events.
The inaugural edition featured just 56 restaurants; however, last year, the program reached a record-breaking 387 participating restaurants, reflecting the extraordinary evolution of Miami’s dining scene. This year’s lineup continues that legacy, featuring everything from Michelin-recognized destinations and award-winning chefs to neighborhood favorites and some of the city’s newest spots.
“For 25 years, Miami Spice Restaurant Months have been a much-anticipated celebration of our destination’s extraordinary culinary landscape — its world-renowned restaurants, visionary chefs, and the creativity that makes our food scene unlike any other,” said David Whitaker, President & CEO of the Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau.
New pricing and premium Miami Spice Reserve experiences
This year’s program introduces updated pricing designed to offer guests even more flexibility.
Brunch and lunch menus will be available for $40, while dinner menus will range from $50 to $65, depending on the restaurant.
New for 2026 is Miami Spice Reserve, a premium category created for restaurants offering elevated dining experiences. Reserve menus begin at $95 and include refined prix-fixe dinners, chef tasting menus and exclusive culinary events.
Select restaurants will also offer optional wine pairings featuring Louis Pommery California sparkling wine and Château La Gordonne rosé.
Michelin restaurants and unforgettable chef experiences
One of Miami Spice’s biggest draws continues to be the opportunity to experience some of the city’s most acclaimed restaurants at accessible prices.
Among this year’s Michelin-recognized participants are L’Atelier de Joël Robuchon, Stubborn Seed, Ariete Restaurant, COTE Korean Steakhouse, Le Jardinier Miami, Azabu Japanese Restaurant, Double Luck and Tâm Tâm.
Beyond traditional prix-fixe menus, several restaurants are introducing exclusive culinary experiences, including:
- Chef Adrianne’s interactive Chef’s Table
- DOYA’s chef-hosted family-style dinner
- Bargean Miami’s Mediterranean Sushi Chef’s Voyage
- SORA by Hotel Collection’s Bluefin Tuna Cutting Ceremony
- Intimate omakase experiences at Uchi Miami and Uchiko Miami Beach
The anniversary edition also welcomes several first-time participants. Among the newcomers are Michelin-recognized Vietnamese restaurant Tâm Tâm, steakhouse Maple & Ash, Grand Public Kitchen & Bar, Italian newcomer Da Angelino, and The Mexican, the acclaimed Dallas concept bringing refined Northern Mexican cuisine to Brickell Key.
Limited-edition collaborations only available during Miami Spice
To celebrate its 25th anniversary, Miami Spice has teamed up with several local brands to launch exclusive food and beverage collaborations.
The Tank Brewing Co. has created the limited-edition Miami Spice Lager, while Florida-based hot sauce company Tabañero introduces its Signature Xtra Heat sauce.
Meanwhile, Voodoo Doughnut is debuting the Holla at Chamoy, a Miami-inspired doughnut filled with mango chamoy and coated with a sweet-and-spicy chamoy habanero glaze. The special doughnut will be available daily at the brand’s Wynwood location throughout the program.
Uber Eats joins the celebration
Throughout the two-month event, Uber Eats will offer exclusive in-app promotions at select participating Miami Spice restaurants, allowing diners to enjoy special savings whether they’re dining out or ordering from home.
Dining that gives back
Miami Spice once again supports Camillus House, the program’s official nonprofit beneficiary.
Participating restaurants will offer diners the opportunity to donate through QR codes printed on Miami Spice menus, helping fund meals, housing, shelter and essential services for individuals and families experiencing homelessness across South Florida.
“Through Miami Spice, diners have a unique opportunity to make every meal count,” said Eddie Gloria, CEO of Camillus House.
This year’s edition also places a stronger focus on sustainability. Participating restaurants are being recognized for initiatives including local sourcing, composting, reducing food waste and limiting single-use plastics. Miami Spice has also partnered with Compost for Life, Glass for Life and Food Rescue US to reduce environmental impact while helping redirect surplus food to local shelters and food pantries.
