Between frenzied flings with wasabi foams, foie gras ice cream, and other frivolous foods, diners return to safe and steady steak houses such as The Grill on the Alley. The original Grill has thrilled Beverly Hills A-listers since 1984, and this Aventura branch relies on the same menu and formula - that of the classic American grill. This means sidecar martinis, shrimp cocktails, and oysters on the half-shell; Prime USDA steaks such as a juicy 16-ounce rib eye; pristine seafood entrées such as pan-seared mahi-mahi amandine; Buick-size baked potatoes, creamed spinach, and a wodgy wedge of iceberg lettuce glopped with blue cheese dressing; six-layer carrot cake, hot cobbler à la mode, and key lime pie - at a tab of $$$$$. So consistent, so reliable, and so comforting in its predictability, the place brings no frills, no ills, and no unexpected thrills. Service is solid, the wine list extensive, and décor streamlined deco. Lunch brings better bargains than dinner.

With its mahogany floors, dark leather banquettes, horseshoe bar, and brass green-shade lamps, the Grill on the Alley seems as though it's been here cooking chops and stirring martinis since the days of film noir. Executive chef Arnold Dion's menu of traditional American grill items likewise satisfies a yen for yesteryear. When it comes to cuisine and design, one can debate whether modern or classic sensibilities are preferable; when it comes to service, the greeting from an amiable and... More »

This article is dedicated to the time I got arrested on Mother's Day when I was 15 years old. Do not — I repeat, do not — get high with your friends on the roof of a parking garage in Coral Gables and throw rocks at the Metrobus, even if it's... More »
