The Forge Restaurant

Frommer's Review

English oak paneling and Tiffany glass suggest high prices and haute cuisine, and that's exactly what you get at The Forge. Each elegant dining room possesses its own character and features high ceilings, ornate chandeliers, and European artwork. The atmosphere is elegant but not too stuffy. On Wednesday night (the party night here), however, it's pandemonium as the who's who of Miami society gather for dinner, dancing, and schmoozing. Like the rest of the menu, appetizers are mostly classics, from Beluga caviar to baked onion soup to shrimp cocktail and escargot. When they're in season, order the stone crabs. For the main course, any of the seafood, chicken, or veal dishes are recommendable, but The Forge is especially known for its award-winning steaks. Its wine selection is equally lauded -- ask for a tour of the cellar. Celeb alert: None other than Michael Jackson has dined here on numerous occasions and considers The Forge one of his favorite restaurants of all time. Same goes for Jennifer Lopez, Paris Hilton, Michael Jordan and, well, you get the picture.
