Casa florida - restaurant and bar

Little Havana, FL

Professional: 2018 - 2019

Located between the booming Miami River and the famous Calle Ocho - this restaurant is highest and best use for this beautiful 1920's structure. Open as of Fall 2019, Casa Florida and the Container Bar provide food & beverage for the adjacent Miami River Hotel and greater Miami. Interiors were inspired by the rich history of the Miami River as well as the old Florida aesthetic that is at the core of the brand and the essence of the Historic property.

Using Spanish tile, reclaimed wood, local lobster traps, and repurposed canoes and nautical lamps throughout the interior + exterior will tie this restaurant directly into it's roots - paying homage to both the working River and Little Havana.
