Farm-to-table cuisine with Asian, Caribbean & Polynesian influences
"Evoking a lush, tropical paradise, this Coral Gables spot uses painted botanicals, abundant greenery, hanging plants, and warm ambient lighting to create an indoor-outdoor feel; the kitchen, led by a celebrated young chef, draws on ingredients from his own ranch and blends inspirations from Asia, Polynesia, and the Caribbean into dishes that match the verdant, thoughtfully designed interior." - Alexandra Domrongchai
"Orno was made for moments like this. The main dining room has a few round tables that can fit parties of six. And there are plenty of safe dishes on the menu like chicken, snapper, steak, and pizza. If your group is a bit smaller than six, see if you can sit in Orno’s “library room.” It’s smaller, more intimate, and the words “knowledge is the food of the soul” are lit in a neon cursive sign above the banquettes. Let these words guide you because watching their parents can give you a pretty good indication of what your own future will look like. And if all goes well, you can page through the Chanel coffee table book on the shelf and start designing that wedding dress. " - virginia otazo, ryan pfeffer
"This restaurant inside the Thesis Hotel showcases the Caribbean islands via a tapas-style menu of Jamaican short rib empanadas, vaca frita tostones, and fried arepas. For dessert, dig into key lime cheesecake flan, topped with luscious coconut whipped cream. The rooftop is the perfect setting for bites and unique cocktails." - Juliana Accioly
"This tropical-inspired restaurant of chef Niven Patel is a tribute to his travels throughout Asia, Polynesia, and the Caribbean. Guests can enjoy a farro salad, wahoo crudo with cranberry agua chile, and turkey wings to start. Main course options include a Wampanoag pork chop or a turkey roulade, accompanied by an array of sides like spiced cornbread, garlic creamed spinach, whole roasted sweet potato with pumpkin butter, roasted carrots with yogurt and pesto, and chorizo-pumpkin stuffing. The meal concludes with a passion fruit cream cheese-glazed carrot cake. Price: $95 per person" - Alona Martinez
"Nestled on the third floor of the Thesis Hotel, Mamey offers guests Caribbean-inspired tunes by a rotating lineup of bands and DJ sets every Thursday through Sunday from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. Chef Nivel Patel’s menu includes seasonal cocktails and flavorful bites such as white truffle and brie grilled cheese and ghee roasted plantains." - Juliana Accioly
