Sunset Grille

Frommer's Review

This chic restaurant's bold Art Deco design and 21st-century color palette honor the architectural splendor of Miami's South Beach. Many diners rave about the outside terrace with its view overlooking a garden and lagoon, but the gorgeous interior dining room deserves attention, too. The hammered copper surfaces, glass partitions, and reflective mosaic pillars are richly modern. The pale mustard, salmon, and olive accents are cool and muted, and the daringly asymmetrical banquettes are dramatic. The stunning decor could overwhelm the food, but the Sunset's Angus beef and succulent seafood are outstanding. The refrigerated case in front displays main course options: Choose your cut or filet. The generously portioned sushi is a good start, as is the mountain of iced shrimp, scallops, mussels, lobster tail, and crab legs with mango sauce. If it's beef you came for -- there's no better steak on the island -- savor filet mignon or New York sirloin strip. A delicious seafood choice, pan-seared ruby-red sushi-grade tuna, is encrusted with peppercorns and flavored with wasabi-soy sauce. To end the evening on a perfect note, moan over the tropical citrus cannoli.
