June 2022 Miami Restaurant Openings and Closings

Summer is here and thoughts turn to vacations, beach outings, and new places to dine with friends and family.

Notable openings this past month included a beachside pop-up by 2 Korean Girls, a new location for Rosie’s, and Lion & the Rambler in Coral Gables.

Sadly, Miami lost a host of great watering holes with the closing of Wood Tavern, Las Rosas, Pizza & Beer, and Nightlife Brewing Co.

In July, look out for Sweet Melody Ice Cream in Coral Gables, Trader Joe’s in Midtown Miami, and Max’d Out Donuts.
