Here are some of the group/personal recommendations- (marked mb/surfside- aventura/nmb, and hollywood/boca, as needed) w a few dishes thrown in.
Casual dairy:
shemtovs. (mb) From breakfast-dinner, from pizza to salads to pasta to fish to pareve chinese/mexican, this is a one stop shop on miami beach.
Uncle noodles-(nmb) a favorite "hidden gem"- giant pizza slices, huge sandwiches, and pasta/salads.
Casual/upscale meat:
(mb)- grill house. Great steaks, outdoor seating. Midpriced. Lamb rib appetizers.
(aventura)- fuego. A group favorite for a reason. From steaks to bbq to burgers, combined w beautiful outdoor seating and reasonable prices, fuego is an all around must visit. Flatbreads are a must order.
Upscale steakhouses/meat:
(mb)- rare. Top notch steaks, and one of the best burgers ive ever had anywhere. Located in tower 41 in the heart of miami beach
Harbor grill- (surfside)- "the" restaurant for foodies in south florida. Seasonal menu. Beautiful plating. Creative, unique dishes, and extremely upscale ambiance.
Butcher block- boca- huge steaks. Great prices.

Sushi/fish: there r many places that offer sushi on their menu( as become standard in the kosher world) but 26 sushi and tapas in surfside is also a group favorite for many reasons. Super inventive and top quality dishes. A must go.
Too many must orders to list.
Asian-

(boca)- suthai- surprisingly beautiful decor w incredible authentic thai food.
Breakfast- (mb) zak the baker- a favorite of pretty much everyone. Go and see why. Must hit if u r in miami. (slightly off the beaten path. In downtown miami. 15 mins away from mb)
(mb) bagel time- great bagels. Great vibe. Great way to start the day.
(mb) tasti cafe- a classic. Perfect for brunch.
(aventura) fresko- full service breakfast/brunch w a great airy sunny decor.
(nmb)- holy bagel. Full breakfast/brunch. Cheap.
Late night eats- most places in miami r open late, but a few r "late night" spots in themselves.
Mb- house of dog. Perfect for a quick casual bite after a fun night.
(aventura/sunny isles/hollywood/boca)- mozart cafe. Sit outdoors and enjoy a casual dairy dinner. Open very late in all locations.
