Pesca Vilano by Chef Michael Lugo is Opening on Tuesday, October 17, 2023 in the Hyatt Place Hotel. The restaurant will be open from 5:00pm-10:00pm, Monday through Sunday and offers globally inspired coastal cuisine with bold Latin flavors and fresh Florida ingredients.
“This new concept is inspired by the Latin and Caribbean flavors that I seek out when I travel south to my native Puerto Rico,” Chef Lugo explains. “It’s the food you want to eat when the weather is warm and sultry. It’s decadent but refreshing and makes you want to linger at the table with a drink in your hand. The whole vibe of the restaurant is very vintage Miami, pulling from the Art Deco period. It really fits in with the beachy, laid-back atmosphere of Vilano.”
There is a main indoor dining area that features a bar, a meticulously curated wine library, a private dining room, and a chef’s experience table. Guests can venture upstairs to the rooftop bar and grill – open 11:00am-11:00pm – where they can take in the panoramic coastal views. They can enjoy a special menu of select small plates, daily seafood specials, beer, wine, and fresh cocktails.
