Giorgina by Grupo Mandolina Opens in Wynwood in Miami, Florida | Eater Miami

"Evoking the charm of Italy’s Amalfi Coast, this open-air spot covers 4,500 square feet and accommodates 130 guests under a distinctive, Instagram-ready ceiling adorned with over 5,000 lemons on vines; the modern architecture and citrus-inspired color scheme were designed by Bea Pernia of Bea Interior Design and Jafif Arquitectos. Led by executive chef Hector Caspio with chef consultant Federico Tischler, the dinner menu pairs classic Italian dishes with creative twists, including pasta Giorgina, grilled octopus over creamy cannellini beans, whole roasted sea bream with garlic confit, veal scallopini, and pizzettes like the Margherita and three-cheese truffle, all served on custom china plates by designer Adriana Castro. Desserts highlight the Inmenso chocolate cake and gooseberry panna cotta, while weekend brunch (11 a.m.–5 p.m.) features coffee, pastries, Giorgina French toast, croissant egg benedict over pastrami, and two-sauce chilaquiles. The casual beverage program emphasizes cocktails that blend Italian and Mexican liqueurs—alongside classics like Negronis—offering drinks such as the Lemon and Sunshine and the Blushing Mojito; the restaurant is open daily for dinner from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m." - Olee Fowler
