28 Best Restaurants in Miami, August 2025
What is it? People like to visit Miami for an escape, but what do Miamians do when they need a little reprieve from the city? Instant vacation vibes come courtesy of Gramps Getaway, a sister restaurant to Wynwood's lovable O.G. dive bar, Gramps. Perched inside the Rickenbacker Marina, this is a true dock-and-dine destination with a casual sandals vibe and an amazing view of downtown Miami across the water.
Why we love it: Chef James McNeal serves up the usual fare you'd want with your day on the water: wings, conch fritters, cheeseburgers and fish sandwiches, all elevated in the least douchey sense of the word. You'll also find more unexpected stuff, like a charred broccoli salad with pickled chili, buttermilk ranch and garlic-shallot crumble.
Time Out tip: Like its mainland counterpart, Gramps Getaway wouldn't be the same without its event programming, which packs DJ sets, live bands and other locals-approved activations into most weekends.
