Editorial Review for Lincoln Road Mall – by Citysearch Editors
In Short
Sun-drenched cafes filled with minor celebrities and scantily clad models help make the mall one of Miami's most popular tourist destinations. Visitors come to stargaze at Yuca and enjoy live jazz at the Van Dyke. The South Florida Art Center, the Colony Theater and the New World Symphony add a bohemian element to the mix. Although chain stores have moved in, Lincoln Road has worked hard to retain its art deco roots and splendid architecture.

Euro Camera and Electronics, 302 Lincoln Road, used deceptive practices to sell me a used refurbished computer representing it as new. It's not right for a business to take advantage of tourists they know will not be around to seek remedy.

There are some good restaurants on Lincoln, but you go to some place like New Orleans for good food. My favorites on Lincoln are La Lupa de Roma and Arua(sp).For sandwiches and light entrees there is Panintotica. Dulcianna has the best coffee and gelato. Dont fall for Van Dykes or News Café. They are basically like an Applebees or Ruby Tuesdays. It actually isnt the proprietors fault that it is so expensive. Rent is outrageous. Most establishments dont last long. The rest of Lincoln is rather nasty. Lincoln and Meridian actually smells about as funky as Bourbon Street. Dinning can be like being in the centre ring of a three ring circus.The cigar and cigarette smoke are inescapable. People are loud, tacky and ostentatious. People think the dinning area is the perfect place to light up and yell on a cell phone.
Pros: Unique
Cons: , smokey, noicy
