SELVA NEGRA RESTAURANT – Mexican
Selva Negra has been cooking Nicaraguan food in Miami since 2000, when Marisol Mendoza opened the first room; twenty-five years later there are two - West Flagler in Little Havana and 107th Avenue in Sweetwater. The kitchen works traditional Nicaraguan plates alongside a wider Latin American menu, with a full bar running cocktails and coffee drinks, and a banquet hall out back for the parties that inevitably follow. Doors open at ten on weekdays, nine at weekends, and stay open past eleven. Diners describe it as a family table that happens to seat a few hundred - unhurried, generous, genuinely warm.
