Grab Your Mimosas-We are Going to Brunch

Major Food Group does it again with the opening of another restaurant in Coconut Grove and this time, it’s focused on brunch! The restaurant Sadelle’s, which will open mid-December is another New York restaurant that the group has decided to open an additional location in South Florida along with the Italian eatery, Carbone, and ZZ’s Sushi Bar in the Design District.

Sadelle’s will be located at 3321 Mary Street where the former Tigertail + Mary restaurant was located. The building just sold last month in a joint venture with the Terra Group and The Related Group to the developer, Mocca Construction for $5.5 million. That is one of the reasons Tigertail + Mary closed last month was due to this sale. The retail condo space on the main floor was also sold for $6 million to a Mexican Investment Group under the name 2811 SBD LLC.

The founders Mario Carbone, Jeff Zalaznick, and Rich Torrisi signed a 10-year lease for the space. The restaurant will include outdoor space.

According to Sadelle’s website, they are considered to “Serve the best bagels in New York City.” Miami will be the judge of that! Not only do they offer classic bagels, but they also offer chopped salads, sliced to order salmon and sturgeon.
