MIAMI - WHERE TO EAT

There is nothing at all around Pro Player Stadium and no restaurant within the stadium, so your best bet is to eat downtown, or close to your hotel. Two areas that have a number of restaurants to choose from are the Bayside Marketplace and Miami Beach.

The Bayside is an outdoor mall that is served by the MetroMover transit system and along with some shops, offers a number of seaside eateries, including the Hard Rock Cafe. We liked the Mambo Cafe which had good beer specials and lots of food.

Ocean Drive is the area of Miami Beach that you should stop in to enjoy a cafe meal. Note that there aren't ocean views from these places, but they are still crowded and if you are in the area, worth checking out. 

Keep in mind that the stadium is north of the city and takes about 45 minutes to get to, so if you want to eat before the game, a 4:30 sitting would be recommended.
