Pasha’s serves natural Mediterranean cuisine and is one of the healthiest restaurants in Brickell Miami. They have a great menu dedicated to all dieters. All of the ingredients in their meals are natural and their food contains no trans fat, additives, preservatives or msg. Try smoothies such as the Mango Lassi and the Peanut Butter Cup. Pasha also offers catering services to parties, corporate gatherings and other types of events upon request.
The menu has something for everyone, from fresh salads, soups, wraps, and filling platters with rice, veggies, and flavorful grilled meats. On my most recent visit, I ordered my usual - Choban salad topped with chicken shish kebab skewers and a whole wheat pita on the side. The salad consists of tomato, cucumber, bell peppers, onions, and Kalamata olives, marinated in heart healthy extra virgin olive oil and Mediterranean herbs. For an extra charge I added Feta cheese and the Shish Kebab Skewers (charbroiled marinated chicken breast chunks with grilled peppers and onions). You can also top the salad with Vegetarian Falafel, Beef, or Salmon kebabs. Other dishes worth mentioning are the lentil soup, tabbouleh, and spinach borek (flaky pastry with spinach and cheese filling).
In 2004 Dr. Arthur Agatston published its successful South Beach Diet Cook Book with recipes from a select handful upscale restaurants from New York and Miami. Pasha’s is the only fast casual restaurant to be part of this selection. The book which became a New York Times Best Seller with over 3 million books sold worldwide proclaimed “Pasha’s serves healthy and delicious Mediterranean food, proving once again the two are never mutually exclusive”

News Cafe - South Beach
By Tamara Lush
Affordable comfort food and international newsstand on Ocean Drive, the hippest and most beautiful stretch of Miami Beach.
If you want a laid-back, yet trendy spot on South Beach, the News Café is the place. Opened in 1988, the owner (who has since opened several other successful restaurants around Miami) started with a few tables, a couple of bookshelves and a newspaper kiosk. Today, the restaurant boasts a sprawling sidewalk café and an interesting newsstand/gift shop. Check out the shop’s wide selection of beautiful, Miami-themed coffee-table books.
The restaurant is located at 800 Ocean Drive, at the corner of Ocean and 8th Street. On-street parking is nearly nonexistent, but there are several nearby parking garages that are reasonably priced – but may fill up on weekends or during special events. This is one reason why the restaurant does not earn a full five stars; on some busy weekends, it’s nearby impossible to park – and then the wait for a table at the News Café can be long.
While the News Café is a perfect place for a burger and fries, many enjoy the round-the-clock breakfast. Eggs Florentine, buttermilk pancakes and smoked salmon on a bagel are welcome noshes after dancing all night at the clubs. Or, if you’re not in the breakfast mode, don’t miss out on the Middle Eastern Combo, a platter with hummous, tabouli salad and grape leaves. You can’t go wrong with whatever you order on the extensive menu – and you will love watching the international (and often beautiful) crowds pass by on their way to and from the beach, which is right across the street!
