tel.: 305/673-1002
Location: South Beach
Cuisine: French
Price Category: Moderate

New York's got the Statue of Liberty and Miami's got L'Entrecote de Paris. We don't complain. Everything in this little piece of Paris, a classy little (albeit recently expanded) bistro, is simple. For dinner, it's either steak, chicken, or seafood--I'd stick to the steaks, particularly the house special, L'Entrecote's French steak, with all-you-can-eat French fries (or pommes frites, rather). The salmon looks like spa cuisine, served with a pile of bald steamed potatoes and a salad with simple greens and an unmatchable vinaigrette. The steak, on the other hand, is the stuff cravings are made of, even if you're not a die-hard carnivore. Its salty sharp sauce is rich but not thick, and full of the beef's natural flavor. I loved the profiteroles au chocolat, a perfect puff pastry filled with vanilla ice cream and topped with a dark bittersweet chocolate sauce. Most diners are very Euro and pack a petit attitude. Servers, however, are superquick and professional, and almost friendly in a French kind of way, making up for the close quarters.

Main courses $16-$24.Open: Sun-Thurs 6:30pm-midnight, Fri-Sat 6pm-1am.Reservations recommended on weekends.Credit Cards: DC, MC, V.
