Miami's restaurant scene grew by leaps and bounds this past month with a score of new eateries and bars opening.

Notable names include a second Katsuya at the SLS Lux Brickell, M House in Coral Gables, and Wall's Ice Cream at the Burger Beast Museum.

Veteran South Miami restaurant, Georges on Sunset closed its doors.

In the coming months, look forward to new breweries such as Descarga and Unseen Creatures and food halls like Time Out Market and Lincoln Eatery.
