GAIA Miami
★ 4.5 · 52 reviews (OpenTable)
Chef Izu Ani carried his Dubai sensation to South of Fifth for its first American address, and the room hums with the ease of an Aegean summer. Order the carpaccio, the lamb chops and thin spaghetti with clams, then linger at the bar long after the dining room winds down, or retreat to NYX, the private salon.
