Italian Gem Forte Dei Marmi Launches New Sunday Brunch
The quaint Italian eatery located in Miami’s South of Fifth neighborhood has developed a renowned reputation among Miami’s most discerning palettes for its authentic, Italian-Mediterranean fare brought by Two Michelin-Star chef Antonio Mellino and his son Raffaele. Now, Forte dei Marmi is giving us something we’ve been craving: an exquisite, all-you-can-eat Autumn brunch each Sunday. Launching October 15th, diners can enjoy a gourmet spread of the restaurant’s famed delicacies like fresh-cured meats, flavorful tartares, pasta dishes, grilled vegetables and a can’t-miss raw bar selection of oysters, langoustines, prawns and more.
The 1930s Mediterranean revival building conjures up the allure of Italian beach culture, drawing inspiration from the Forte dei Marmi seaside resort located in Northern Tuscany, resulting in an intimate, romantic eatery perfect for any setting. Guests have the option of dining al fresco on the lush patio or inside, where Miami architect Chad Oppenheim and Milan-based designer Henry Timi have created a chic, minimalistic setting.
And what’s even better is that this Michelin-level brunch is not priced as such. The brunch menu is offered at $55/person for the pre-fixe menu, which includes an all-you-can-eat buffet in addition to one of the spot’s acclaimed entree dishes such as the Free Range Chicken Milanese, Slow Cooked Organic Poached Egg, Grilled Petit Beef Filet—or our personal favorite—the delicious Linguine “alla Nerano” signature pasta dish. There is an option for a $35 add-on for the Raw Fish Bar—which we definitely suggest doing—that offers the freshest oysters, red prawns and scampi around decadently presenting the fish with caviar on top and light seasoning.
The restaurant also offers the option of making it a family affair with a special kid’s menu available at $25/person, offering a choice of Homemade Penne with parmesan cheese, tomato or pesto, Chicken Milanese or the Grilled Fish of the day.
We recommend booking a spot for this experience ASAP because once guests try it for themselves it will undoubtedly become one of the city’s most coveted Sunday reservations. For more information, click here or call (786) 276-3095.
