Why it matters: Chef Marcus Samuelsson’s Black-owned Overtown restaurant is built around the neighborhood, hiring locally, sourcing from area purveyors, and using its space to platform local artists and musicians. The menu is elevated American comfort food rooted in the diverse traditions of historically Black Overtown, and it earned a Michelin Bib Gourmand in 2022. Come for the fried chicken and the live music nights, and pair it with a walk through Overtown’s revived Historic Village.
