Miami has earned recognition for its dining culture, ranking No. 5 on Yelp and Lyft\u2019s new Top 20 List of Foodie Cities for 2026<\/a>.<\/p>\n

By analyzing rideshare data, restaurant search volume, and Yelp\u2019s feature for organizing and saving businesses, Yelp and Lyft teamed up to discover which American cities have the strongest interest in dining out. <\/p>\n

The list marks the beginning of Yelp\u2019s inaugural Foodie Week that runs through Monday, encouraging consumers to eat locally.<\/p>\n

The list highlights Miami\u2019s diverse food scene, including Cuban, Haitian, and Venezuelan cuisines. The Top 20 list also mentions a growing number of \u201cchef-driven\u201d restaurant openings garnering national attention, like Bad Bunny and David Grutman\u2019s Japanese-inspired steakhouse and lounge, Gekko<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The data reflects the variety of Miami\u2019s dining scene. \u201cTrending restaurants this year range from garden Italian (Call Me Gaby<\/a>), to down-to-earth Jamaican (Dukanoo<\/a>), and chic Asian (Sexy Fish Miami<\/a>),\u201d according to Yelp\u2019s 2026 report.<\/p>\n

The figures also give insight into America\u2019s broader dining habits. Yelp data shows that \u201cBreakfast & Brunch\u201d is the most-searched cuisine in every Foodie City. Lyft data shows almost one in five rides to restaurants occurs before 12 p.m.<\/p>\n

\u201cAmerica\u2019s dining out appetite is real \u2014 and in some cities it\u2019s stronger than ever,\u201d according to Yelp. Yelp\u2019s research shows that 45% of Gen Z diners spent more money on restaurants than they did one year ago.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Miami has earned recognition for its dining culture, ranking No. 5 on Yelp and Lyft\u2019s new Top 20…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":391496,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[225,227,226],"class_list":["post-391495","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-hialeah","tag-hialeah","tag-hialeah-headlines","tag-hialeah-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/391495","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=391495"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/391495\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/391496"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=391495"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=391495"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=391495"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
