Our favorite Indian restaurant in Miami- make a reservation, because they get slammed. Bombay Darbar is located in the Coconut Grove neighborhood. After dinner, you can easily walk over to the bars or movie theater at "Cocowalk" for a fun night out.

Drinks & Nightlife

There are many clubs in Miami, but we happen to like e11even most. They usually bring big-name DJs, don't hassle you at the door, and their drinks are reasonably priced for Miami standards! They also happen to have Burlesque dancers performing around the club---It's not raunchy or over the top, though! It doesn't feel like a strip club.
