I am only going to be in Miami for Wednesday and Thursday nights only for the show, any good restaurants or must see places near the show. Not really high end restaurants, just good places to eat.

Across the way in the arena is http://www.bongoscubancafe.com/

If you go up to Lauderdale check this place out its different you park and take a little taxi boat out to this island and eat.

Go to any of the Pub Belly restaurants, alta mar has excellent seafood always very fresh, there is a place next door called haven that also has good food and usually some decent talent to look at

Anything on ocean drive is tourist trap crap, but lots of people that are in town will be hanging out there.

just depends what you are looking for.

Been here the last two days. It seems the economy has humbled the Ocean Drive establishments. There's been great Happy Hour specials at all the local haunts!
