It's Super Bowl Sunday in Miami. If you're in town, and wondering where to grab a decent meal before or after the big game, here are a few Miami favorites of various electronic DJs and celebrities:

Helio Castroneves recommends Casa Tua and says,"It is a nice lounge and restaurant, and it's right on the beach, so it's a great place to hang out."

Tony Kanaan recommends Tutto Pasta and says, "The food is awesome. They make their own pasta. If I want to change anything, they do it for me."

Anthony Bourdain says he's a big fan of Chef Michelle Bernstein and would probably be seen at Michy's. He once said, "I'm a big fan of Michelle Bernstein and always interested in seeing what she's doing and where she's doing it."

Mario Batali recommends Las Vacas Gordas in Miami Beach, an Argentinian restaurant, which translates to "The Fat Cows", and Michy's, headed by Chef Michelle Bernstein.

Paul van Dyk recommends La Loggia and once said, "My favorite Italian restaurant in the world. Try the 'Pasta à la Loggia'."

Stryke, a Miami local, likes Mambo Cafe, a Cuban restaurant recently opened by his friend DJ Oscar G, and tweeted, "Here for my 2nd time already. Soooo good!"

Michael Jackson considered The Forge Restaurant one of his favorite restaurants of all time. Sharon Stone, Madonna, Jennifer Lopez, Paris Hilton, and Michael Jordan also consider it one of their favorites.

Dubfire says his favorite restaurant in Miami is Ceviche 105 and stated, "Probably the most authentic Peruvian ceviche restaurant outside of Lima - besides La Mar in San Francisco." Yelp users apparently agree with him, giving the restaurant a solid 4 out of 5 stars based on 58 reviews (as of 02.07.2010).
