nice little trio of restaurants on Purdy -- this one, sardinia, and ouzo.
several other worldwide locations.
food is good, the homemade ravioli with ricotta and spinach stuffing, basil marinara sauce was tasty, and had a nice sweetness to it.
tagliarini with grilled chicken more traditional sun-dried tomato tartness.  i'd try a few other dishes.  i saw someone with the ice cream cookie sandwich -- massive 3 scoops.

This is comfort food with a good selection of salads at it best in this off Lincoln road location. It's located west of Alton Road near the Publix and South Beach Towing (if you've ever been towed). My wife and I had the strip steak and daughter (home from college) the liver. That said, the peanut brittle and vanilla ice cream dessert and the mixed berry tart would be worth a "repeat".

The atmosphere is dark and the service is good. There won't be any people watching since there are only a few restaurants in this industrial area near the Marina. For parking, don't forget to bring your change or your Miami Beach Parking card because there is only metered parking around. It also says right on their menu that if you park in the vacant on the corner, you will be towed. With South Beach Towing around the corner, there is probably a 99.9% chance of it.

Hard to go wrong with any meal at Joe Allen (or drink for what its worth). The stuff pork is amazing. I think the "Date dessert" with toffee they serve could be the best I have ever had. Service is good and while it always is packed I have never had trouble getting a table. Brunch is excellent there as well.

Joe Allen is definately worth it. It's off the beaten path but well known by the locals. The prices are reasonable and the food is good! I highly recommend their mojitos, pizzas, and salmon sandwich. (Meatloaf if you're looking for comforrt food)  Also, you can park in the lot in front of the restaurant.
