Daniel\u2019s Miami, the Coral Gables steakhouse that has been open for less than a year, has been named one of the best steak restaurants in the world.<\/p>\n
The World\u2019s 101 Best Steak Restaurants, an independent ranking curated by Upper Cut Media House in London, has now added the elegant restaurant to its World Best list<\/a> at no. 40, praising its \u201cconfident new direction for Florida\u2019s dining landscape.\u201d It\u2019s the only Florida restaurant to make the list.<\/p>\n What sets Daniel\u2019s apart, according to the World\u2019s 101 Best Steak Restaurants, is the insistence of founder Thomas Angelo and executive chef Daniel Ganem of using premium ingredients to offer a wide range of flavors as well as ground the restaurant in its Florida roots instead of relying on conventional steakhouse tradition.<\/p>\n \u201cRather than relying on grandeur alone, Daniel\u2019s places its emphasis on craft, provenance and balance,\u201d the list says, praising the restaurant\u2019s combination of dry-aged American beef and Australian wagyu. \u201cThe menu is built around premium ingredients selected with clear purpose, with a strong connection to the richness of Florida\u2019s own produce.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cLocally raised beef, sustainable seafood, regional vegetables and carefully chosen accompaniments all contribute to a restaurant identity that feels grounded in place rather than detached from it. This sense of origin gives the experience both freshness and credibility, allowing the restaurant to speak in a distinctly Floridian voice.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThis independent streak is something we strongly welcome,\u201d it concludes.<\/p>\n Thomas Angelo, founder of Gioia Hospitality, said he was \u201cincredibly humbled\u201d by making the list.<\/p>\n \u201cBeing part of such a prestigious list after being open for just seven months is a true testimony to our entire team and their dedication to excellence on a daily basis,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n This is far from the first notable honor for Daniel\u2019s, which opened in July 2025 and also has a location in Fort Lauderdale. Last November, the restaurant was named no. 9 in North America<\/a> on The World\u2019s Best Steak Restaurants list (along with Sunny\u2019s Steakhouse in Miami, which was listed at no. 23).<\/p>\n Daniel\u2019s is also the only restaurant in the United States that has hosted the prestigious international Rare Tour, once with Rockwell Steakhouse from Australia and more recently with Spain\u2019s Laia Erretegia. Daniel\u2019s is also the only restaurant in North America to earn The Beef Advocate\u2019s Global Meat Standard Certification at Base Certificate level, which recognizes steak restaurants that combine exceptional quality with verified sourcing, responsible cattle farming and transparent supply chains.<\/p>\n Daniel\u2019s Miami<\/p>\n Where: 1500 San Ignacio Ave, Coral Gables<\/p>\n Reservations: Resy<\/a><\/p>\n![\"The](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/daniels.JPG\" "\\"daniels.JPG\\"")
