I recommend „Havana 1957“ a good restaurant with great authentic Cuban food, good service and a vast selection of mojitos and other cocktails. 
Located on the 800 block of Lincoln Road. Prices are reasonable but as all restaurants a bit higher than earlier, plan for 25-35 bucks per person.

Senor Frogs gone already?  Didn't last that long.  Replaced by an Italian restaurant?

Thanks!  I confused 1450 Collins & 1450 Washington.  Senor Frog's has shut down but it seems nothing has taken its place yet.

Maybe somebody will start a counterfeit money scheme in there until the next business comes in. :p

I gotta disappoint ya. Of course I eyeballed into the building, but there was no big block of dead presidents inside. No ashes either so I doubt that I missed anything interesting. :p

You can do a stakeout from the porch of the Henrosa across the street like Switek and Zito?

Enough space to jump out next to the hedge like Switek and Zito!

Nice pics Tom.  Looks like the Henrosa is back in business as a hotel or condo.  Glad to see it.  It was in bad shape for a long time, mostly unoccupied except for a liquor store.

You´re right. I am happy to report that most of Art Deco buildings on Collins and Ocean Drivehave been nicely restored with fresh colors and are NOT empty. So at least they have fixed some of the damage and have not added more by razing...

I definitely recommend to go to Havanna1957 on 800block of Lincoln Rd. Great Cuban food, vast selection of drinks including many mojito flavors. Middle priced restaurant with swift service. I come here everytime when around. PS in pic I have an original Cuban bowl with pork, rice, beans, onions, bananas, plantados and a mango mojito:cheers:

“…and one stomach pump to go.” :p

Looks amazing Tom. 

My wife and I honestly go to Miami for the food as much as anything else it has to offer.

Then also try this just close to the first one (926 Alton Rd). Great empanadas with or without meat, great salads. They deliver within MB.

and, of course since 1992 an institution: 11th street Diner -vis a vis of Miami Beach police - for great burgers and steaks.

What about these for great almost episode angles. 
Henrosa was closed for a long time and it has been reinvigorated. Crazy a building like that at 1450 Collins is empty but Senor Frogs was bad:)
