Top 5 Places to Get Dessert in Overtown
Visiting a new travel destination may become tough and exhausting, but a bite of your favorite treat NEVER FAILS to make the journey SWEETER!
Set your sights on Overtown, one of Miami's oldest neighborhoods, lovingly called "The Harlem of the South" by longtime locals.
Once a bustling entertainment district nicknamed "Little Broadway" during its heyday in the 1930s, today, Overtown remains a tiny showcase for Black history, culture, and traditions, as its spirit continues through the art, music, and SOUL FOOD peppered throughout the community.
Of course, when I say food, I don't just mean warm and filling kind.
Don't forget everyone needs a decadent treat after a hearty meal!
Luckily, you won't have to go too far to find your go-to dessert around Overtown-- or try something new for your excited palate!
Ah, Overtown, you truly NEVER disappoint!
Here are the top 5 dessert places you can try while you're here (in no particular order).

If there's a new, must-try dessert in Overtown, it has to be Italian Vice, and I'm pretty sure ice cream aficionados will agree!
A vendor operating from a cute vintage cart outside House of Wings (we'll talk more about that on a separate blog!), Italian Vice is a premier Miami gourmet Italian Ice company boasting healthier, delicious, and refreshing treats for dessert lovers, whatever their age they may be!
Armed with a menu of ice-cold treats made from fresh fruits, Italian Vice includes fresh flavors with fun names inspired by modern music icons like Drake-Colada, Toast Malone, Cotton Cardi, Lil Pump Pineapple, and more.
We're talking about over 30 Italian Ice varieties, including 15 equally delicious vegan-friendly, gluten-free, non-dairy flavors, gourmet options, and all-natural products!
Now if that doesn't give you "range," I don't know what will!
