Red Rooster Overtown
Due in large part to the thriving Haitian community in the city, Chef Marcus Samuelsson's first Miami restaurant - Red Rooster Overtown - follows the southern-style traditions of its Harlem flagship while adding more Caribbean flair. For customers, that means a menu bursting with South Florida seafood, light and colorful local vegetables, and a number of Haitian specialties like griot (stewed pork bits) and accra (fritters). These dishes are served alongside traditional southern fare like honey yardbird and a Picadilly crab pasta that is simply too good to pass up. Be sure to start with the curry buttered cornbread before continuing on to meals with influences as wide as the Deep South, Italy, and West Africa. The menu is constantly changing and focuses on whatever is current.
This is one of Black-owned Restaurants In Miami You Need To Try. The restaurant's owners, Grove Bay Hospitality, are also evaluating Overtown's rich history and utilizing it to guide Red Rooster's cultural programs. The restaurant's upstairs room, once Clyde Killen's Pool Hall, will soon serve as an exhibition space and performance hall. The Michelin restaurant rating guide, which is the most well-known in the world, gave Red Rooster the Bib Gourmand designation in 2022. The Bib Gourmand highlights eateries that offer superb cuisine at an affordable price.
