Miami-Specific Tips

  • Florida has no state income tax — but you're still paying 7% sales tax on inflated app prices
  • Cuban restaurants and ventanitas often have their own ordering systems — check before using an app
  • Delivery fees spike during rain (afternoon storms) — order direct to skip surge pricing
  • FIU/UM students: direct ordering 3x/week saves $600-850/semester
