The inaugural edition of the MICHELIN Guide Miami, Orlando and Tampa has been revealed, with inspectors finding 14 One-MICHELIN-Star restaurants and a Two-MICHELIN-Star restaurant.
L’Atelier de Joël Robuchon Miami, led by Director of Culinary Operations Alain Verzeroli, received two MICHELIN Stars. Here’s what the inspectors had to say about it:
L’Atelier
de Joël Robuchon Miami (French cuisine)
The menu offers both
tasting portions and large plates; but go with the seasonal prix fixe. The
bread basket is a lovely opener, arriving in advance of such thrilling bites as
a seared sea scallop with toasted spices. The Design District setting bears all
the beloved hallmarks with its counter and open kitchen.
Here are the One-MICHELIN-Star restaurants, with inspector notes from each (inspector comments in full on the MICHELIN Guide website and mobile app):
Ariete (Miami,
Contemporary cuisine)
Chef Michael Beltran’s Coconut Grove mainstay is immediately welcoming with a
menu that weaves together Cuban and French influences to dazzling effect.
Boia De
(Miami, Contemporary cuisine)
A neon-pink exclamation mark that glows above the front door is impossible to
miss. Surprising is certainly an apt descriptor for Chefs Luciana Giangrandi
and Alex Meyer’s distinctive and impressive menu.
Cote Miami
(Miami, Korean cuisine/steakhouse)
Elcielo
Miami (Miami, Colombian cuisine)
The menu offers diners a taste of traditional Colombian cuisine presented in a
modern and dramatic manner. Colombian-born Chef Juan Manuel Barrientos'
culinary artistry has garnered international fame, with various locations,
including Washington, D.C.
Hiden
(Miami, Japanese cuisine)
This spot is indeed hidden in the thick of bustling Wynwood. Chef Shingo
Akikuni sticks to tradition, sourcing most of his product from Japan — beautiful
slabs of tuna, sweet botan ebi and generous portions of uni are highlights in a
tasting menu that never feels stuffy or overly reverent.
Le
Jardinier Miami (Miami, French cuisine)
Stylish from head to toe, this dining room is a celebration of the seasons. The
menu is a study of vibrant tastes and smart compositions that pack big flavor
minus the heaviness.
Los Félix (Miami, Mexican cuisine)
This is cooking that sends guests on a gustatory trip — at the hands of servers who are armed with ample information about the provenance of each ingredient. Recent highlights have included hearty pork cheek carnitas with myriad salsas and snapper crudo topped with shavings of jicama and avocado aïoli.
Stubborn
Seed (Miami Beach, Contemporary cuisine)
Stubborn Seed is sexy and sleek with its industrial chic décor and
glass-fronted display kitchen. Chef Jeremy Ford brings the heat, and his
ambitious and brashly creative cooking is best enjoyed by way of the tasting
menu.
The Surf
Club Restaurant (Surfside, American cuisine)
Located within the elegantly restored landmark, now in league with the Four
Seasons, The Surf Club is a prime location for Thomas Keller's first Florida
venture. Sauces are what this team does best, starting with the scallop crudo
with buttermilk-basil dressing; followed by the brilliantly reimagined Maine
lobster thermidor with sauce Américaine.
Capa
(Orlando, Steakhouse)
Soseki
(Orlando, Fusion/sushi)
Kadence (Orlando,
Japanese cuisine/sushi)
Knife
& Spoon (Orlando, Steakhouse)
Bib
Gourmands
The MICHELIN Guide inspectors found 29 restaurants worthy of the Bib Gourmand designation, which recognizes great food at a great value. These are restaurants where one can have two courses and a glass of wine or dessert for under $49. There were 19 in the Miami area, seven in the Orlando area and three in the Tampa area.
