Kiki on the River

Kiki on The River is praised for its meticulously-scuffed elegance that only a windswept waterfront garden can offer, embracing the friendliness and spirit of the Greek islands. Come enjoy a romantic seaside dinner prepared by renowned chef Steve Rhee during the workweek. Weekends in Miami begin on Friday nights when Mykonos arrives with a live DJ and a joyous party atmosphere complete with twirling napkins and dancing that will have you saying "opa!

In a 100-year-old fish market that has been transformed, this Greek dream is located alongside the Miami River. Date night rounds of ouzo tinted with freshly squeezed juices will be accompanied by simple, yet rustic Mediterranean dishes served on a partially covered deck with tied-back white drapes and ivy-wrapped columns. Although the restaurant's main bar is hidden inside its charmingly rustic surroundings, the view from the outside bar makes choosing to enjoy your cocktail outside a no-brainer.

Roman Jones, the founder of Opium Group, Aris Nanos, a former managing partner of Philippe Chow Miami, and Lee Lyon, a hotel executive, collaborated on Kiki as a passion project. The original design was conceptualized by Mark Lehmkuhl, Creative Director of Ghosthouse Creative Group.
