Notable Picks

$$$ Brickell Breakfast
Jacopo Giustiniani opened the first Felice on the Upper East Side in 2007 after realizing Manhattan needed a relaxed wine bar with proper Italian roots—this Brickell flagship carries that same 'extension of your living room' philosophy backed by the SA Hospitality Group that runs Sant Ambroeus. The fettuccine alla Bolognese and mezze maniche cacio e pepe use imported Italian tomatoes and the family's organic Tuscan wines from Fattoria Sardi near Lucca. Manager Flavio and executive chef Luigi Bailon have built a loyal following, with reviewers consistently praising the attentive, professional service. The outdoor seating works for date nights, though the Brickell location is still building its reputation compared to the NYC originals. A genuine Italian import, not a Miami approximation.
Must-Try Dishes: Fettuccine alla Bolognese, Mezze Maniche Cacio e Pepe, Veal Meatballs
What Makes it Special: NYC's beloved Tuscan trattoria brings countryside Italy energy to Brickell with proper Italian tomatoes and a family-first approach.
$$ Brickell Breakfast
Sam Fox—the eleven-time James Beard-nominated restaurateur behind 60+ concepts including Justin Timberlake's Twelve Thirty Club—brought this 260-seat showstopper to Brickell City Centre with a menu designed to cast an impossibly wide net. The Gatsby-era-meets-industrial design creates genuine energy, and the polished service from staff who remember orders keeps it feeling like a neighborhood joint despite the scale. Food won't blow anyone away, but the pretzels with provolone fondue and molten butter cake deliver consistent comfort. The divergence between platforms—strong on some, middling on others—suggests execution varies more than it should at this price point. Best for business lunches and celebrations where ambiance matters as much as the plate.
Must-Try Dishes: Pretzels & Provolone Fondue, Spicy Tuna & Crispy Rice, Short Rib Potstickers
What Makes it Special: A 260-seat showstopper in Brickell City Centre delivering modern American comfort food with Southern soul and polished service.
$$ Brickell Breakfast
Belgian entrepreneur Patrick Feyten partnered with French pastry chef Franck Monnier in 2010 to bring authentic French boulangerie craft to Miami, starting in Pinecrest and eventually expanding to this Brickell outpost. The almond croissants and quiche Lorraine deliver on the French promise, and the weekly $30 wine pairings add unexpected value for the financial district lunch crowd. The Saint Honoré demonstrates genuine pastry technique rarely found in the neighborhood. Some reviewers note lunch prices run high and coffee quality varies, but the outdoor seating with Brickell Avenue views provides a genuine European café moment. Best for those who want croissants that shatter properly.
Must-Try Dishes: Almond Croissant, Quiche Lorraine, Salmon Benedict
What Makes it Special: An authentic French boulangerie with a Belgian founder crafting everything in-house, plus weekly wine pairings for $30.
