We’re going to miss the words “Miami Hotel Mambo,” and we’re kinda sad that we won’t be reporting on the debut of these new hotel restaurants under that tag.
New hotels and new restaurants are a dime a dozen on Miami Beach but here are three new hotel restaurants on the way that we’re legit excited about.
Sunny’s at The Hall
We love us a Top Chef, and Spike Mendelsohn may just be one of our favorites. The Hall will bring affordable cool to the heart of South Beach and we have high hopes that Sunny’s will do likewise when it comes to food. As an avid surfer, Spike has promised to bring his love for beach towns and beach eats to this new spot. In a world overrun with high-end steakhouses and Italian restaurants, this more casual eatery is just what Miami needs.
Nobu at Nobu Eden Roc
The beach has long had a Nobu (located at The Shore Club) but this new incarnation of the infamous Japanese restaurant promises even more splashiness than usual. As the signature restaurant and bar of the second ever Nobu Hotel, the Nobu at Nobu Eden Roc is bound to become a see-and-be-seen scene when it opens ahead of this year’s Art Basel in December. Earmark this one as your new star-spotting central.
Talde at Thompson Miami Beach
Don’t look now but it’s another Top Chef opening a new restaurant in Miami. In this case, it’s Dale Talde, who will open a third outpost of his Asian-American restaurant, Talde. We’ve devoured plates of his Korean Fried Chicken at the Brooklyn location and look forward to doing likewise when Talde opens at the Thompson later this summer.
