While we can’t imagine willingly dining outdoors in Miami right now, we are looking forward to doing it again someday, like early in 2023—in wintertime—which also happens to coincide with the opening of Le Jardin Boucherie at 81 Washington Avenue, Miami Beach.
The highly anticipated garden-themed restaurant comes to Miami by way of NYC-based hospitality firm The Group, which owns similar lush spots throughout the city, including Boucherie West Village and La Grande Boucherie. Located in South Beach’s South of Fifth neighborhood, Le Jardin is slated to bring all of the French garden-party vibes with a greenery-filled courtyard shaded by canopies of foliage and flowers.
While the outdoor area gets top billing, Le Jardin Boucherie has much to offer indoors as well. The ground-level dining room leans into the French brasserie theme with subway-tiled walls and wooden bistro tables. There’s also a third-floor omakase area (yes, unexpected, but just go with it) as well as an adjacent speakeasy called Golden Gai, where Japanese-style cocktails are sure to flow.
