"A new restaurant inside Casa Faena on Miami Beach, led by executive chef Antonio Maldonado (who grew up in Mexico), serves Latin-influenced American dishes using ingredients sourced from South Florida farms; the space was designed by Alan Faena himself. The dinner menu spans raw bar items, robata skewers, and sushi rolls, with an emphasis on sustainable proteins and seasonal vegetables. Highlights include an avocado salad topped with Ark Farm shishito peppers and green papaya; a wild mushroom tlacoyo with chipotle butter; Maine lobster accompanied by serrano yuzu and cascabel aioli; Key West shrimp marinated in adobo; hamachi rolls with Fresno chilies; and bone marrow ramen in shiitake dashi. Desserts include passion fruit cheesecake with goat cheese and coconut and an apple dessert made with Granny Smith apples and mascarpone. The all-day brunch menu features house-baked pastries and smoothies alongside heartier fare such as loaded pancakes with berries, chilaquiles topped with a sunny-side-up egg and queso fresco, and a wagyu burger dressed with port salut and smoked gouda. The beverage program features cocktails made with house-made shrubs, including brunch-leaning options like a watermelon mimosa, house sangria, and the Morning After (a bloody mary variation with clamato and celery salt), plus the Char Lemonade with bourbon and caramelized lemon and the Melancia with vodka, cucumber, and St-Germain; the restaurant also offers unlimited mimosas, champagne service, and non-alcoholic juices and smoothies. The 95-seat dining room showcases tropical murals by Brazilian artist Joao Incerti — including “Let the Sun Come In,” which decorates the dining room with reds, pinks, and white stripes — and includes an outdoor terrace and bar; salsa and cumbia music plays throughout, contributing to the lively atmosphere. Service hours: dinner Sunday–Thursday 6:00 p.m.–10:30 p.m. and Friday–Saturday 6:00 p.m.–11:30 p.m.; daily brunch noon–4:00 p.m.; breakfast 7:00 a.m.–11:00 a.m." - Olee Fowler
"Campo is a restaurant inside the Casa Faena hotel open for brunch and dinner. The brunch menu has juices, protein shakes, and chia bowls, along with some less healthy options like brioche french toast and a wagyu burger. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Team Infatuation
"Tucked away in the vibrant Casa Faena, a beachside boutique hotel, lies a sun-soaked tropical spot, transporting diners to the beaches of Tulum. Featuring a range of Mexican dishes, the standout starter is the beautifully presented guacamole, served alongside a selection of crisp crudites and crunchy totopos." - Alona Martinez
"This restaurant inside Mid-Beach’s Casa Faena is originally from Tulum - and it feels like the kind of place your least favorite friend would end up on vacation. Vague tropical house music plays just a little too loud over the speakers and your server might ask if you’ve had time to “discover” the menu yet. The food is luckily more tolerable than the atmosphere. The green tomatillo bowl with kale and kiwi is refreshing, the truffle tlayuda is basically just a cheesy tortilla pizza (which isn’t a bad thing), and the smoked shrimp tacos definitely aren’t worth $26, but they get the job done." - Ryan Pfeffer
"High-end “clean” Mexican food has come to Miami, courtesy of new restaurant Gitano (3500 Collins Avenue). The eatery, which began in hip Mexican vacation destination Tulum and expanded to New York City last year, is a longtime favorite of celebrities and socialites. The menu at Gitano, created by consulting chef-at-large, Mads Refslund, co-founder of Noma and former executive chef of ACME, is reflective of its Tulum roots. Guests can expect dishes like grilled avocado with ponzu, fish in banana leaf, and young coconut salad. It’s popular drinks like the Jungle Fever made with mezcal, cilantro, chili, and lime, also make its way to the menu in Miami. The multi-level space boasts a main dining room, bar, and lounge, outdoor dining and cocktail terraces and three-story tall glass atrium that can hold 110 for dinner and 40 for cocktails. The rooftop garden features ocean views, a tented lounge, teepees, outdoor showers. Plenty of the design features that make it an Instagram favorite in other locations made it to Miami as well like the wooden banquets, tropical plants, textured plaster walls, vintage light fixtures, pink neon Gitano sign, and large disco ball installation. Hopefully the Miami location will have better luck than its New York City counterpart. Despite lines wrapped the blocks for days after its debut, it was shut down twice by the department of health, received less than stellar reviews, and underwent a major revamp this year (including a name refresh) after its first season in New York City. Gitano’s restaurant, bar and terraces are open daily from 8 a.m. to midnight and 2 a.m. on the weekends. The rooftop garden is open daily from 4 to 11 p.m." - Olee Fowler
