Miami Spice Restaurant Months Celebrates 25 Years with New Premium Experiences and Exclusive Offerings

From 01 August to 30 September, Restaurants Throughout Greater Miami and Miami Beach Will Offer Prix-Fixe Menus Alongside New Miami Spice Reserve Experiences and Limited-Edition Collaborations

The Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau (GMCVB) announces the 25th edition of Miami Spice Restaurant Months from 01 August to 30 September 2026. This year’s program features three-course prix-fixe menus at a minimum of 30% savings at more than 300 participating restaurants, alongside new Miami Spice Reserve experiences and exclusive offerings.

Launched in 2002 with just 56 participating restaurants, Miami Spice has grown into one of the destination’s most anticipated culinary programs. Last year, it welcomed a record 387 restaurants. For 2026, the program debuts an updated pricing structure, with brunch and lunch menus priced at $40 and dinner menus ranging from $50 to $65. Participating restaurants span neighbourhoods throughout the destination, from Michelin-recognized restaurants and acclaimed fine dining destinations to long-time local favourites and notable newcomers. New this year, Miami Spice Reserve introduces a premium tier featuring elevated prix-fixe and tasting menu experiences beginning at $95. Select participating restaurants will also offer optional wine pairings featuring Louis Pommery California sparkling wine and Château La Gordonne rosé.

“For 25 years, Miami Spice Restaurant Months have been a much-anticipated celebration of our destination's extraordinary culinary landscape — its world-renowned restaurants, visionary chefs, and the creativity that makes our food scene unlike any other," said David Whitaker, President & CEO of the Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau. "What began as an economic development initiative to support our restaurant community during the quieter summer months has grown into a beloved tradition that reflects the remarkable evolution of the destination. With hundreds of restaurants participating across neighbourhoods throughout Greater Miami and Miami Beach, we are incredibly proud to mark this milestone and warmly invite residents and visitors alike to celebrate 25 years of flavour, culture, and community.”

Miami Spice also continues its support of Camillus House, the official non-profit beneficiary of Miami Spice’s 25th season. Throughout the program, participating restaurants are given the opportunity to feature QR codes on their menus that allow diners to make donations supporting the non-profit’s mission of providing meals, shelter, housing and other essential services to individuals and families experiencing homelessness across South Florida. Diners may also donate online at www.camillus.org/ways-to-help/.

“We are honoured to be selected as the charitable partner for Miami Spice 2026 and grateful to the Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau for creating an opportunity that brings together Miami's vibrant culinary community and a cause that impacts thousands of our people each day,” said Eddie Gloria, CEO of Camillus House. “Through Miami Spice, diners have a unique opportunity to make every meal count. By choosing to dine and donate, they are helping ensure that individuals and families facing homelessness receive not only nutritious meals, but also the support and opportunities needed to rebuild their lives. Together, we can transform a simple act of dining out into a lasting impact for our community.”

To celebrate the program’s 25th edition, Miami Spice has partnered with The Tank Brewing Co., Tabañero and Voodoo Doughnut to debut three limited-edition collaborations. The Tank Brewing Co.’s Miami Spice Lager pays tribute to the chefs, restaurants and diners who have shaped the program over the past quarter century; Florida-based Tabañero has crafted a Signature Xtra Heat hot sauce that adds a fitting kick to Miami Spice; and Voodoo Doughnut has introduced its Holla at Chamoy, a Miami-inspired doughnut creation featuring mango chamoy filling and a sweet-and-spicy chamoy and habanero coating, available fresh daily at its Wynwood location from 01 August to 30 September.

As a Miami Spice partner, Uber Eats will offer in-app deals throughout the program at select participating restaurants.

“Miami Spice celebrates the heart of our local food scene, and Uber Eats is thrilled to partner and bring that experience directly to your doorstep,” said Lizzie Pittinger, Senior Associate of Public Policy at Uber. “With in-app deals running throughout the event, locals and visitors can unlock exclusive savings from anywhere in the city.”
