When you’re driving through the employment center of Doral, it’s difficult to miss the entrance of CityPlace Doral with its large, silver “CityPlace” letters inviting you in and giving you a taste of the top-notch amenities inside. Recently opened this March, the Related Group’s CityPlace Doral is the city’s hottest center of more than 40 shopping, entertainment and, most notably, dining venues.
Not only is the atmosphere of CityPlace refreshing, but it is also one of South Florida’s newest summer hot spots, with restaurants and shops encompassing the property’s iconic entertainment plaza, which showcases spectacular fountain shows.
What complement the opulent fountain are the the premier restaurants within the mixed-use complex. Here are three of CityPlace’s must-visit restaurants sure to satisfy even the hardest-to-please culinary connoisseur:

Guests leave Icebox with more than just satisfied palates–the atmosphere is crisp and modern with an unexpected feeling of home. Since his mother is a well-known artist in Mexico, Icebox Cafe owner Robert Siegmann adorns the restaurant with his mother’s stunning sculptures. In a way, Siegmann said, inviting guests into Icebox Cafe is like inviting them into his home.
