Ariete
Live a little and order the Chug Burger, a double cheeseburger topped with Ariete’s secret sauce on a toasted bun. (Then take a nap.)
3540 Main Hwy., Coconut Grove; 305-640-5862 orarietemiami.com
Blue Collar
This decadent variation consists of a New York strip steak blend on a Portuguese muffin bun with cheese, lettuce and tomato. Proof that sometimes the simplest burgers are the tastiest.
6730 Biscayne Blvd., Miami; 305-756-0366 orbluecollarmiami.com
Cheeseburger Baby
Before you hit the beach, grab a classic cheeseburger. (But like your mom always says, eat it at least an hour before you go swimming.)
1505 Washington Ave., South Beach; 305-531-7300 orcheeseburgerbaby.net
Lokal
Double cheeseburger plus cheese plus fried egg plus glazed doughnut bun equals a match made in burger heaven.
3190 Commodore Plaza, Coconut Grove; 305-442-3377 orlokalmiami.com
Le Chick
Go for the Royale with Cheese, piled high with two beef patties, lettuce, tomato, house pickles, lots of cheddar and a secret sauce. Oh, and maybe add on some truffle and avocado because why not?
310 NW 24thSt., Miami; 786-216-7086 orlechickmiami.com
Bird & Bone
Chef Richard Hales is known in Miami for his Nashville hot fried chicken, but one taste of this dry-aged beef with cheddar on a doughy bun and you’ll be waving off wings left and right.
4041 Collins Ave., Miami Beach; 305-424-1234 ortheconfidantemiamibeach.hyatt.com
Pincho Factory
This burger tastes so good, you’ll forget your manners. With cilantro sauce, potato sticks and jack cheese, it can get a little sloppy, but you’ll be too absorbed in the combo of beefy goodness and caramelized onions to care.
