Entry Description

Since 2003, this Miami seafood restaurant has offered a time-honored dining experience locals love. Our firm reimagined the concept at its new 5,520 sq. ft. location, featuring table seating for 110, bar seating for 30, a 9-seat oyster bar, and a 16-person private dining room. The undulating wood ceiling creates movement, mimicking waves and evoking the passage of an estuary into the sea. The reclaimed wood, unexpected art collection, and water-inspired color palette are reminiscent of Classic Miami, while pops of lime green and electric blue are firmly rooted in modern design.
