There’s almost quite nothing Miamians love more than a fun-filled Sunday brunch. And let’s face it—between the waterfront views, endless champagne and decadent food specials, not many places can compare to the dynamic brunch scene that Miami offers. While it’s tough to narrow down the very best, we’ve rounded up some of our favorite spots that offer something bigger and better than anywhere else in town.

Zuma is one of the original places in Miami doing brunch in a grand way. Between the all-you-can-eat buffet with robata, raw bar, sushi specials and more, as well as bottomless drinks and selections of some of their greatest offerings for an entree—like the Beef Tenderloin, Salmon or Lamb—and the unbeatable waterfront views of Biscayne Bay, it’s hard to get much better. Zuma is not only one of the most delicious brunches in Miami, but also one of the hardest to snag a reservation, so be sure to plan early. Brunch starts at $95/person.

The iconic St. Regis Bal Harbour Resort recently launched a special Sunday Rosé Brunch, and as can be expected of the five-star hotel, the brunch is nothing less than extraordinary. With choices of unlimited rosé, champagne, bellinis, mimosas or Bloody Marys, the grand dining experiences also includes a selection of gourmet delicacies at the buffet station complete with caviar, oysters, mini burgers, tuna tartare, fresh burrata, an omelet station, meat station and so much more. And most noticeably, there is an extravagant and very Instagrammable dessert display—highlighted by a giant, edible Eiffel Tower statue created out of rainbow macarons. Set with the backdrop of the bright blue ocean and sounds of the live band in the background, it is the perfect oasis for a relaxing and luxurious Sunday. Brunch runs at $95/person.
