If South Beach offers lots of scene and skin, chef/restaurateur Mark Militello makes sure that this land of sun, fun, and waterfront cocktails offers just as much gourmet cuisine. At Mark’s South Beach, Militello offers his brand of savvy Floridian cuisine, with Caribbean, Asian, and local ingredients blasting sinful amounts of flavor through signature dishes like potato-crusted Pacific oysters with horseradish, crème fraîche, and caviar; peppercorn/lavender-spiced Moulard duck breast with wild rice pecan flan and foie gras huckleberry sauce; and a tasting of exotic homemade sorbets with watermelon carpaccio and Mojito nage. But the food isn’t the only attraction here; the restaurant offers indoor and outdoor Art Deco dining and just the right amount of sizzle to make you feel like you are eating in the right place.
