Sip cocktails at the stunning Champagne Bar and savor Italian coastal delights at Lido, both tucked within Four Seasons' chic Surf Club retreat.
"The Lido’s walk-in friendly Champagne Bar is worthy of your fanciest clothes (and your thickest credit card). This old-money spot is not cheap, but if you want to go big on some $20-plus cocktails that taste like works of art, this is the place to do it. The historic property is gorgeous too, with massive cathedral ceilings and bartenders sporting white coats behind an emerald green bar you can practically see your reflection in. The martinis here are predictably great—chilled to the ideal temperature in glassware so delicate you’re afraid to touch it." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo
"Lido brings breezy, Italian coastal cooking to the Four Seasons Hotel at The Surf Club. There is nothing better than a seat than on the terrace, which overlooks the pool and off to the ocean through a line of palm trees. Against this dazzling backdrop, his team delivers politely seasoned, well-sourced seafood. Crudo is an easy start, like bluefin tuna tartare with pickled seaweed and puffed wild rice. Plenty will be content with just a king crab salad, but don’t ignore housemade pastas like seafood risotto or spaghetti with clams. Larger plates include branzino with rainbow chard or tagliata with beef jus. An oasis that radiates tranquility, the restaurant is a pricey, albeit luxurious, retreat from the rest of the city." - Michelin Inspector
"For those looking to impress their date with top-notch cocktails and an elegant atmosphere, look no further than the Champagne Bar at Four Seasons Surfside.

"For the bride that’s looking for the royal treatment, the Champagne Bar at Four Seasons Surfside is the answer. The bride-to-be can kick the evening off sipping copious amounts of Champagne at the stunning bar, home to Miami's largest selection of bubbly. She can taste Italy in the breathtaking dining room with its sophisticated yet simple dishes like tagliatelle in Bolognese." - Amber Love Bond
"For a more casual dining experience, Lido, Four Seasons' all-day venue, is an apt choice, and it will soon feature a 'restaurant-within-a-restaurant' concept called Amedeo, which specializes in a dedicated raw bar and an exclusive fish-based menu." - Nick Remsen
