In a statement recently released from Gordon Ramsay’s company, Ramsay will establish a Hell’s Kitchen branch in downtown Miami in late 2022. It will be the third Hell’s Kitchen establishment, after those in Las Vegas and Lake Tahoe. Two more locations, in Chicago and Washington, D.C., are also on the way.

The Miami location will be just as big and just as iconic as its other locations. The site itself will be located at the Metropolitan Miami Development which lies just north of the river in Brickell.

The space spreads out 16,000+ square feet over two floors, there will be a ground-floor patio and a second-floor dining terrace. Like its counterparts, there will be an open kitchen, bar, and signature fire depictions throughout the restaurant.

The menu will include the show favorites but with a Miami twist. Think oysters, shrimp cocktails, and seared scallops featuring Cuban and South American spices and classics. Other foods like beef Wellington, chicken scallopini, meatballs, and foie gras will also be on the menu.

You will know what you pay for with the fixed-price options that range from $75 to $85.

Ramsay himself stated, “I’m so excited to bring [the restaurant] to Miami. With its impressive food scene, Art Deco architecture, and amazing people, they really know how to bring on the heat, and I know Hell’s Kitchen will feel right at home.”

Gordon Ramsay is a British chef, tv personality, and restaurateur. He founded Gordon Ramsay Restaurants in 1997 and has been awarded 16 Michelin stars overall and currently holding 7. He began Hell’s Kitchen in 2004 and it received national recognition in 2005. Ramsay is known for his incredible skills, fiery attitude, bluntness, and his excessive use of profanity.

Hell’s Kitchen Miami will open in the fall of 2022. Aria Group and Architecture will be in charge of the design of this location.

Plans for Twin Condo Towers at the Turnberry Yacht Club Proposed

Twin Condo Towers Proposed in Aventura

Jeffrey Soffer, CEO of YCM Acquisition LLC, has submitted a site plan to build on a section of the 18.4-acre site located at 19500 and 19735 N.E. 36th Street in Aventura. The current site is comprised of 7.6 acres of buildable land and 10.8 acres of submerged land.

Currently on the site is a marina, a 50-room hotel, a clubhouse, a spa, and tennis courts. The two proposed condos would replace the hotel, eight tennis courts, and a portion of the parking lot that is currently on the site.

The twin towers would be labeled as towers north and south and would rise 24 stories tall. The north tower would equal 398,000 square feet in the first phase of the project, with 145 condominiums, 10 service apartments, and 320 parking spots.

The residential units would range from 1,730 square feet for the two-bedroom floor plan to 4,990 square feet for the three-bedroom floor plan.

The service apartments would be smaller and range from 367 to 638 square feet. These suites would only be for guests of owners and can be purchased by the owners.

Each condominium would have its own pool, exercise facility, and social areas. Two additional tennis courts would also be built in the south tower.

Soffer is making a name for himself in Aventura, first with the Turnberry Ocean Club and a building north in Tequesta and now with this new development.

No dates have been submitted for the review of the proposal. Arquitectonica is the architect for these twin towers.
