Looking for good eats in Miami

I am staying at the springhill suites at 6700 NW 7th street Miami 33126. It looks pretty desolate around here. Can anybody make some local recs. near me. I am not looking to break the bank just enjoy a great meal. I enjoy all types of ethnic foods.

Thanks

    There's a local Italian chain Anacapri close by you - at 57th Ave and NW 7th St.

    I've also heard good things about Patagonia, an Argentine restaurant in that area as well, although I've never been.

    Hereford, a Venezuelan steakhouse is by NW 7th and Le Jeune (42nd Ave)

    And an institution, El Palacio de los Jugos is the closest institution to you - at Flagler and 57th Avenue.

    For Cuban in that part of town, my suggestion came from a relative of mine. She liked La Rosa (the restaurant - I understand that there's a restaurant and a bakery near each other) just east of Le Jeune on NW 7th Street.

    I hope this helps!

      some additions:
      Sarussi Cafe for cuban sandwiches is at 67th ave and SW 8th st
      Sabor de Espana for ham and manchego sandwiches at 49th ave and SW 8th st
      Aromas del Peru at 59th ave and SW 8th st
      get some guanabana juice from El Palacio de los Jugos

      How far are you willing to go? I don't know much right in that area but Tropical Chinese Restaurant is about 5 miles south off the Palmetto Expressway. You're also in about 5 miles range of 8th Street (Versailles - Cuban; Hy Vong - Vietnamese are more west on 8th St. which is closer to you) and Coral Gables (lots of options if you search this board).
