Restaurant Suggestions

I am coming into town next week for a conference. Statying at the Epic Hotel.

Looking for a couple restaurant recommendations. Probably looking for Italian one night and any other recommendations. We would like to eat outdoors possibly and something with a nice water view.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

The Brasserie on Brickell Key is nice, no view though. Azul%26#39;s at the Mandarin oriental is amazing (probably the second best meal I have ever had, 1st being a great restaurant out in Bachelor Gulch, CO), very expensive though, its on the water. Oceanaire at Mary Brickell Village is a chain, but we always have a great meal. Smith %26amp; Wollensky is on the water overlooking the port of Miami, you can sit outside. Perricones on Brickell is good (i have only been there for lunch but I hear dinner is good too).

Hi Red%26gt;

At your hotel, the seafood restaurant Area 31 is lovely and has a great view.

A few streets away is one of the loveliest Italian restaurants overlooking the bay, il Gabbiano at the Met.

Definitely have a drink at the Viceroy Hotel just across the bridge from the Epic at sunset one night and check my map for a street guide to Downtown here:
