Winter doesn’t necessarily mean cold weather, particularly in South Florida. But winter in cities like Miami and Fort Lauderdale does mean cooler and drier days, making for the perfect time to enjoy an alfresco dining experience. But in cities with a plethora of restaurants to choose from, how do you choose?
We’re here to help.

The hotel’s buildings are only two stories tall and also house a lobby, lounge, restaurant and event space. Tucked into a corner of the grounds sits a circular outdoor pool.
