A-Z: A comprehensive list of Brickell’s finest upscale restaurants
South of the Miami River, the booming Brickell district was originally envisioned as Miami’s “Millionaire’s Row” with mansions and large homes. Today, it is a walkable enclave that is home to the largest concentration of international banks in the United States as well as a wide array of futuristic high-rise office towers, architecturally stunning apartment buildings, hip restaurants and cool bars. Miami’s booming financial district may be a hub for young professionals, but in Brickell, business is anything but “as usual.”
