Thanksgiving in Miami can look like almost anything. You can eat turkey croquetas and guava-cranberry sauce in Coconut Grove, spend the afternoon over Champagne and caviar in South Beach, gather three generations at a grand hotel brunch, or sit by the water without committing to a traditional meal at all.
Thanksgiving falls on Thursday, November 26, 2026, and every restaurant in the main guide has announced its 2026 holiday meal. Ariete is our pick for a dinner that feels distinctly Miami, Rusty Pelican is the move for water views, and Christy's is the old-school Coral Gables classic. Watching the bill? Cooper's Hawk in Doral has the least expensive complete meal here.
The guide covers dine-in Thanksgiving across Miami-Dade, from Coconut Grove and Brickell to Miami Beach, Coral Gables, Key Biscayne, Doral, Sunny Isles, Surfside, Bal Harbour and Aventura. Prices are per adult. A ++ means tax and service or gratuity are added on top, and drinks are extra unless we say otherwise.

Coconut Grove, Brickell, Downtown, Edgewater and the Design District
The mainland has the widest range, from a neighborhood family-style dinner in the Grove to Brickell rooftops and two Michelin-starred tasting menus.
Ariete
3540 Main Hwy, Coconut Grove, FL 33133, USA
Ariete is the pick if you want Thanksgiving to taste like Miami instead of a hotel's take on the holiday. The family-style meal opens with pumpkin brioche, turkey pot pie pastelitos and turkey-and-gravy croquetas, then moves to roast turkey breast, stuffing, green bean casserole, pommes purée and guava-cranberry sauce. Vegetarian and pescatarian menus make it an easy call for a mixed table. Details: 4–8 p.m.; $125 adults, $65 kids, plus tax and gratuity.
TULUM Rooftop Bar & Restaurant at W Miami
485 Brickell Ave, Miami, FL 33131, USA
Sixty dollars for a Thanksgiving prix fixe on a 15th-floor Brickell rooftop is a rare find. The menu sticks to the classics (roast turkey, butternut squash soup, harvest salad, green beans, sweet potatoes, cranberry sauce and dessert), and live entertainment keeps it feeling like an occasion. Details: Noon–8 p.m.; $60 plus tax and service; 15th floor of the W Miami.
EDGE Brasserie and Cocktail Bar at Four Seasons
Four Seasons Hotel Miami, 1435 Brickell Ave, Miami, FL 33131, USA
Book EDGE for a long, celebratory Brickell afternoon. The buffet runs from sushi and raw bar to omelets, roast turkey, carved meats and desserts, and unlimited mimosas or Bloody Marys come with the price. Champagne upgrades are there if the table wants them. Details: From 11:30 a.m.; $175 plus tax and 20% service; Champagne upgrades $40 or $65.
ADRIFT Mare at Hotel AKA Brickell
1395 Brickell Ave, Miami, FL 33131, USA
ADRIFT goes its own way: shawarma-roasted chicken over butternut hummus, braised beef ravioli, shared seasonal sides, and pecan pie or pumpkin cheesecake. It suits a date or a small group that doesn't need a turkey buffet. Details: $68, prepaid.
Toro Toro at InterContinental Miami
100 Chopin Plaza, Miami, FL 33131, USA
When the table can't agree on turkey, Toro Toro lets everyone order their own. Holiday specials, including a turkey entrée, halibut, pumpkin cheesecake and a pumpkin espresso martini, run alongside a shortened regular menu. Details: Noon–10 p.m.; à la carte, turkey entrée $52, holiday desserts $18; 18% service added.
Amara at Paraiso
3101 NE 7th Ave, Miami, FL 33137, USA
Amara sets a big buffet on Biscayne Bay: charcuterie, soups, salads, vegetable sides, mac and cheese, stuffing, turkey, salmon and ribeye. Expect a lively family outing more than a hushed dinner. Details: From 3 p.m.; $119 plus tax and gratuity.
L'Atelier de Joël Robuchon
151 NE 41st St, Miami, FL 33137, USA
Miami's only two-Michelin-star restaurant turns the holiday into a five-course tasting: foie gras royale, raw madai with caviar, roasted celeriac and halibut poached in olive oil, then venison or organic turkey with stuffing, and apple or pumpkin desserts. Come for an intimate splurge, not platters of sides. Details: 4–9 p.m.; $325 plus tax and gratuity, prepaid.
Le Jardinier
151 NE 41st St Ste 135, Miami, FL 33137, USA
L'Atelier's one-Michelin-star sibling at the same address is the lighter Design District option, and it starts serving at noon, so it works as a long lunch or an early dinner. A deviled egg opens three courses, with choices like butternut squash velouté, then salmon, braised beef cheek or organic turkey, plus Brussels sprouts, mushroom stuffing and mashed potatoes for the table. Details: Noon–9 p.m.; $185 plus tax and gratuity, prepaid.

Miami Beach
Miami Beach is where Thanksgiving gets glamorous, with Champagne brunches, Italian feasts and a few calm, grown-up dinners along Collins Avenue.
Jaya at The Setai
2001 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139, USA
Jaya's courtyard brunch is the Champagne pick: caviar, Peking duck, grilled meats, seafood and desserts, with free-flowing Louis Roederer and live jazz. It's a strong choice for an international group or anyone who wants more than the American classics. Tables are held for two hours. Details: 11:15 a.m.–3 p.m.; $145 adults, $75 kids 5–12, plus tax and service.
Mareva 1939 at the National Hotel
1677 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139, USA
Mareva is the calm South Beach dinner. Four courses run from a mini quiche and kabocha squash salad to turkey with chistorra-herb stuffing and apple-pepper compote, then a pumpkin dessert. It generally seats guests 14 and older, so it's better for adults and older teens. Details: Four courses, $85; generally ages 14+.
Sérêvène at Hotel Greystone
1920 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139, USA
Sérêvène is adults-only and leans French with Japanese accents: honeynut squash bisque, a cranberry kale salad, a sage turkey roulade with wild mushroom bread pudding, and pecan pie. Bottles under $250 are half off, which makes it an easy night out for friends or couples. Details: From 6 p.m.; $69 plus tax and 20% service; ages 21+.
Amalia at The Lennox
Inside Lennox Hotel, 1900 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139, USA
Amalia is the Miami Beach option with a real vegetarian main: pumpkin-ricotta ravioli, alongside salmon or duck. Start with pumpkin soup or beet salad and finish with a pumpkin dessert or chocolate pavlova. The menu runs November 24–28, so it also works if your family celebrates on Friday. Details: Three courses, $69; Nov. 24–28, including Thanksgiving Day.
Cecconi's Miami Beach
4385 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33140, USA
Cecconi's treats Thanksgiving like a long Italian lunch, with antipasti, cured meats, cheese, sushi, pasta, eggs, holiday dishes and desserts. Unlimited Bellinis, mimosas and Prosecco are included, and the regular menu takes the day off. Details: From noon; $135, drinks included.
Vida at Fontainebleau
4441 Collins Ave Off Lobby, Miami Beach, FL 33140, USA
Vida is the Fontainebleau's full Thanksgiving buffet and the lowest-priced of the big beach-resort spreads in this guide: raw bar, carving stations, charcuterie, holiday sides and desserts. Prime 54, Hakkasan and Arkadia are on property if part of your group wants something else. Details: Timed seatings; $120 adults, $60 kids, plus tax and service.
Key Biscayne, Coral Gables, South Miami and Doral
This is where you'll find the classic family Thanksgivings: a waterfront brunch, the Biltmore, a Coral Gables institution and the best-value turkey dinners in the guide.
Rusty Pelican
3201 Rickenbacker Cwy, Key Biscayne, FL 33149, USA
The view is the reason to go. Rusty Pelican sits on the water on Virginia Key, just off the Rickenbacker Causeway, looking straight back at the skyline. The three-course brunch mixes shared starters and raw bar with plated mains and family-style desserts, so it feels celebratory without the buffet scramble. Details: From 10 a.m.; $98 adults, $35 kids; bottomless mimosas $30 extra.
The Biltmore
1200 Anastasia Ave, Coral Gables, FL 33134, USA
The Biltmore runs three different Thanksgivings under one roof, which makes it the easiest call for a multigenerational family. The courtyard brunch is the big one, with caviar, seafood, carving stations, holiday classics, bottomless bubbly and live entertainment. Fairways is a calmer seated four-course meal with golf-course views, and Fontana does an Italian-leaning five-course dinner with burrata, squash ravioli or mushroom risotto, and turkey or short rib. Details: Courtyard brunch from 11:30 a.m., $150 adults, $65 kids 4–12; Fairways from 11:30 a.m., $110 adults, $55 kids under 12; Fontana from 6 p.m., $115 adults, $55 kids 4–12; all plus tax and gratuity.
Christy's
3101 Ponce de Leon Blvd, Miami, FL 33134, USA
The Coral Gables institution does Thanksgiving the way it always has: turkey with chestnut stuffing and mushroom-shallot gravy, soup or salad, sweet potato casserole, vegetables and pie. Lamb, ribeye, salmon and filet are there for anyone who passes on turkey. It's familiar and a little formal, and that's the point. Details: Turkey dinner $70 adults, $45 kids under 12; other mains priced separately.
Fleming's Prime Steakhouse
2525 Ponce de Leon Blvd Suite 100, Coral Gables, FL 33134, USA
Fleming's handles the turkey-or-steak split cleanly. A traditional turkey dinner sits next to filet mignon and bone-in ribeye, each with a starter and shared sides, and the bigger cuts cost more. Details: From 11 a.m.; holiday meals from $64.
Beauty & The Butcher
6915 Southwest 57th Avenue, S Red Rd, Coral Gables, FL 33143, USA
One really good plate instead of a marathon: smoked turkey with chorizo-apricot dressing, crispy Brussels sprouts, sweet potato-cranberry chow chow and truffle-mushroom gravy. It's a smart South Miami pick for a couple or a small group. Details: 3–8 p.m.; $49.
Cooper's Hawk Winery & Restaurant
3585 NW 83rd Ave, Doral, FL 33122, USA
Cooper's Hawk has the lowest price for a complete Thanksgiving dinner in this guide: turkey, stuffing, potatoes, gravy and the usual favorites, served all day next to the regular menu. For a big family keeping an eye on the total, that's hard to beat. Details: All day; $36.99 adults, $15.99 kids 12 and under.
Sunny Isles, Surfside, Bal Harbour and Aventura
Up north, Thanksgiving means oceanfront resorts, from an $80 Italian prix fixe to the most extravagant buffet in this guide.
BALEENkitchen at Solé Miami
17315 Collins Ave, Sunny Isles Beach, FL 33160, USA
BALEEN serves a substantial four-course oceanfront dinner with choices like yuca croquettes, crab cake, pumpkin ravioli, New York strip and turkey. You get variety and a sea view without the buffet line. Details: 5–10 p.m.; $135 plus tax and gratuity.
Il Mulino New York at Acqualina
17875 Collins Ave, Sunny Isles Beach, FL 33160, USA
At $80, Il Mulino is the value play among the Sunny Isles resorts. The three courses lean Italian: homemade pumpkin ravioli with butter and sage, organic roast turkey with walnut-sausage stuffing, green beans and mashed potatoes, then pumpkin cheesecake. Details: Three courses, $80 plus tax and gratuity.
Lido Restaurant at The Surf Club
9011 Collins Ave, Surfside, FL 33154, USA
Lido is the no-holds-barred option: a buffet of turkey and stuffing, carved meats, oysters, crudos, pasta and desserts in one of the most polished settings in Surfside. Drinks aren't included, tables are held for two hours, and late cancellations can be charged in full. Details: Noon–8 p.m.; $255 adults, $110 kids 5–10, plus tax and service.
The St. Regis Bal Harbour
9703 Collins Avenue Bal Harbour, Miami Beach, FL 33154, USA
The St. Regis puts on a luxury ballroom buffet with the friendliest kids' pricing in this guide: under 6 eat free and ages 6–12 pay half. Expect carving stations, Thanksgiving favorites, desserts, live music, and a welcome glass of sparkling wine or a nonalcoholic alternative in the Ocean View Ballroom. Details: $195 adults, prepaid; optional premium drinks package $95.
Bourbon Steak at JW Marriott Turnberry
19999 W Country Club Dr, Aventura, FL 33180, USA
Michael Mina's Aventura steakhouse is doing a Thanksgiving prix fixe for parties of up to 12, a structured, special-occasion alternative to the beach buffets. The course list isn't out yet, so look it over when you book. Details: $220 plus tax and gratuity.
Still waiting on 2026 details
These four usually serve on Thanksgiving or have announced holiday plans, but haven't posted full Miami details for 2026 yet. We'll update the guide as they do.
- Seasons 52, Coral Gables. The 2026 menu is out (roast turkey and gravy, herb stuffing, mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes, green beans, cranberry sauce and a mini pumpkin pie, alongside the full menu), but the price isn't. 321 Miracle Mile.
- COTE Miami, Design District. The Korean steakhouse has done a Thanksgiving feast in past years. Its 2026 menu and price are still to come.
- STK South Beach. Holiday service is expected, with a Miami menu and price still to come. 2305 Collins Avenue.

Tips for booking Thanksgiving in Miami
- Check what's in the price. Jaya, Cecconi's, EDGE and the Biltmore brunch include drinks. Rusty Pelican charges $30 for bottomless mimosas, and Lido doesn't include drinks at all.
- Mind the age rules. Sérêvène is 21+ and Mareva generally 14+. Kids' pricing swings a lot, from free under 6 at the St. Regis to $110++ at Lido.
- Ask for the view, and book early. A waterfront, rooftop or courtyard reservation doesn't guarantee an outdoor or view table, so ask when you book. L'Atelier, Le Jardinier, ADRIFT Mare and the St. Regis also take payment upfront, so read the cancellation terms.
