"Lafayette Steakhouse, a new American steakhouse from the creators of Queen Miami Beach, pays playful homage to Major General Marquis de Lafayette of “Hamilton” fame — just kidding. The venue, formerly home to El Tucán, opens to the public on Saturday, May 11, in Brickell. Carlos Rodriguez of Escala Forma Studio and Mathieu Massa, owner of Mr. Hospitality, designed the steakhouse. Its interior, just like the group’s other restaurants, is purposely over-the-top, featuring a dark jewel tone color palette of mahogany, oak, and leather, accented by bright, maximalist decor. 'At Lafayette Steakhouse, we’ve created an atmosphere where every detail exudes the opulence of a bygone era,' said Massa." - Olee Fowler
