Four national food and beverage concepts will be joining the extensive roster of tenants at Miami Worldcenter, the $6 billion, 27-acre mixed-use development transforming the heart of Downtown Miami. The development’s ownership group has completed leases with Serafina, an internationally acclaimed and New York City-founded Italian restaurant group; Sixty Vines, a sustainable restaurant with an exciting wine-on-tap program and vineyard-inspired food; and a dual-concept location for BurgerFi and Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza & Wings.

Miami Worldcenter’s newest restaurants, which are anticipated to open in 2024, will build on the development’s exceptional lineup of recently opened food and beverage outlets, including three concepts by Ariete Hospitality Group’s Michelin-star-rated Chef Michael Beltran, Brasserie Laurel, Chug’s Express, and El Vecino Cigar & Cocktail Bar, and two additional restaurants expected to open soon, Earls Kitchen & Bar and Chicago’s Maple & Ash.

As one of the largest privately owned and developed urban real estate developments in Florida, Miami Worldcenter, which is currently coming alive in phases, features a diverse mix of residential, commercial and hospitality uses complemented by a total of 300,000 square feet of retail, restaurant, and entertainment space. Approximately 84% of the development’s retail space has been leased.

Miami Worldcenter is being developed by master developers Miami Worldcenter Associates, led by Managing Partners Art Falcone and Nitin Motwani, in partnership with CIM Group.
