What does it cost to eat at Miami Michelin star restaurants?

Let’s get one thing straight from the start: There are not many bargains to be had at the Miami restaurants that made the 2022 Michelin Guide.

In the eyes of the Michelin inspectors, the 11 restaurants that earned a star (in one case, two stars) offer the best cuisine that Florida has to offer. And you’ll pay for the privilege of dining there.

“Getting one star is a real achievement,” said Gwendal Poullennec, international director of the Michelin Guides, who told the Miami Herald he expects more Miami restaurants to earn stars in the future. “It means you are one of the best restaurants in the city. And getting two stars is definitely another level.”

Here’s what you can expect when the bill comes. And remember: All menu items are subject to change — as are the prices.

L’Atelier de Joël Robuchon

Make no mistake. Dining at this Design District favorite, Florida’s only two-star Michelin restaurant, is expensive. An eight-course tasting menu is $280, while a la carte entrees start at $54 (for poached black bass) and range to $100 (sole Meuniere). Even the starters can set you back, with a beet, apple and avocado salad with green mustard sorbet at $27 and a crispy poached egg with Imperial caviar and smoked salmon for $85.

You can, however, dine for less during the Golden Hour, from 6-7 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday, during which you can order a starter, a main course (beef, salmon or fava bean ravioli), dessert and a cocktail for $120.

Cote Miami

You can order the seafood platter (12 oysters, Maine lobster, shrimp and ceviche) for $155 or caviar service for $120 or $195 at this Design District hot spot from New York, but let’s face it: If you’re at Cote, you’re there for the meat. You can order your favorite cut a la carte, be it a ribeye ($88 for Wagyu, $55 for USDA Prime dry aged) or skirt steak ($45).

Want to try more cuts of meat? Opt for the Butcher’s Feast, with chef’s choice of four cuts of USDA Prime and American Wagyu Beef ($65).

There are two seatings each night at 6:30 and 9:30 p.m. And don’t worry about getting in through that secret door — a few hours before your reservation, Hiden will email you a code to get in.

Stubborn Seed

On Fridays and Saturdays, only the eight-course chef’s tasting menu is available ($150).

The Surf Club Restaurant

Chef Thomas Keller’s first restaurant in Florida focuses on the classics, like a chopped iceberg salad ($20) or oysters Rockefeller ($28). Caviar service for two will cost you $175 or $250, depending on the size. Entrees range from eggplant Parmesan ($34) to lobster Thermidor ($85). The real financial setbacks come in the form of the sole Meuniere ($120) and the New York strip steak, a hybrid of Japanese Wagyu and Black Angus for $170 that can serve two if you’re not ravenous.
