It’s the most wonderful time of the year. Miami Spice has officially begun and it brings to the table a list of over 250 participating restaurants…plus brunch! With lunch and weekend brunch menus at $23 and dinners at just $39, it’s the best way to enjoy those fancy restaurants you’ve been waiting to visit for a “special day”. Why not make everyday special?! Miami Spice runs from August 1st through September 30th, giving you enough time to visit all 252 restaurants. We’re a bit competitive over here…
Today we’re showcasing one of our favorites in Brickell. With a breathtaking décor carefully designed by the talented Philippe Starck, Bazaar Mar by José Andrés is located on the first floor of the new SLS Hotel in Brickell. You’ll be blown away from the moment you get there. José Andrés has brought the abundance of the ocean with a slice of Caribbean flavors and Spanish cuisine. Try everything from ‘sea snacks’ like ceviches, seaweeds, and tiraditos, to an extensive raw bar and delicious ‘land’ options.
Here’s a breakdown of some of our favorite Dinner selections from the Miami Spice menu and some off-menu items we just had to try. Note that some items may not appear on the menu or will require a $15 surcharge…but trust us, it’s worth every bite.
