Whisk Gourmet on SW 56th Avenue in South Miami has been a Miami-area Southern comfort food destination since it opened, building a menu around the biscuits, fried chicken, and scratch-made Southern plates that earn a South Miami restaurant its loyal following in a city better known for Cuban food and seafood than for Southern comfort cooking. It appeared in Season 19, Episode 5 of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, “Dynamite Duos,” which aired March 7, 2014. Guy Fieri found a South Miami kitchen doing Southern food from scratch with the quality and authenticity that earns a restaurant its destination reputation in a market where the cuisine is genuinely rare.

What to Eat
The House-Made Biscuits — scratch-made, tall and flaky — are the Southern foundation that everything at Whisk Gourmet is built around. The Fried Chicken and Biscuit Sandwich with house-made hot sauce and honey is the crossover item that brings both the biscuit and the chicken programs together on one plate. The Chicken and Waffles with house-made maple syrup is the Southern classic that earns its own Miami following. The Seasonal Comfort Food Specials reflect what the kitchen is inspired to build that week. Find a Miami hotel on Trivago.
