Outta site, outta mind. Not on our watch? This town's got plenty of low-profile eateries that might not be fancy schmancy but should be on any good yelper's must try list.

"Great homemade quality served in no time, without breaking the bank." That description comes courtesy of Eddy A, as he explains his infatuation with Nunzio's. He goes on to say the Italian eatery "is one reason saving mom-and-pop restaurants is so important to foodies." Hans C, however, prefers to get Galician over at El Gallego: "The prices are fantastic (their beers are $2.50, imported go for $3), and the portions will make you fully understand why the Spaniards need siestas." If you're in the mood for a little romance, give Bistro Bisou a chance. The chocolate soufflé was so spectacular, it made Eddy D's knees rattle a bit – oh la la!

Channel your inner Tiger Woods and head straight to the 19th Hole at the Biltmore. This hole-in-one hole-in-the-wall serves up a view of the golf course, sand-wedges, and over 30 different brews from around the globe. Meanwhile, Fresco California Bistro was so inconspicuous, Meli D didn't stumble across this Californicated Italian/Mexican eatery until recently, even though it was in her very own 'hood! For Jennifer N, "good Vietnamese food ranks up there with oxygen," and she satisfies her need to breathe at Green Papaya, where a dynamic husband and wife duo team up as hostess and chef to provide that special feeling and "taste of home."

Cindy W shares "the best kept secret in Miami: Choice Café, an excellent Korean lunch spot." Now that she's shared, she deplores you to "ignore the hole-in-the-wall aspect, the sketchy neighborhood, and fill your maw with some excellent spiciness." Yes ma'am! Jeff G is also a fan of a lil' heat, and thusly visits Jamaica Kitchen for a hearty lunch of curry goat with rice and peas accompanied by a cold ginger beer ("nothing beats eating spicy food with a spicy drink!"). Finally, for "curry that avoids the fire-alarm spices," Joseluis A turns to the Jamaican-sensation otherwise known as Clive's; you can pick up goat, ox tail, or cow's foot. Even with an occasional visit from a certain Lenny Kravitz, it's just another example of Miami casual without the glitz, but with all the taste.

alice s. on Chef's Kitchen
"Ok yelpsters. I'm showing you all my cards- this is by far my most sacred, secret place in Miami. And I've decided to share it with you, lucky ones.

Chef's is nestled between a garage and a dance studio. Not exactly the most picturesque of locations but you'll soon forget about that. The interior is…"

Andres S. on Matsuri Japanese Restaurant
"i'd been to this strip mall a million times and never noticed this place. even when we were looking for it the place eluded us. it's a dark little place next to mario the baker's and milam's.

the food was really good and for 38 dollars we had some meal for two which brings sashimi, sushi and some…"
