Restaurateur Derek Gonzalez, founder of Goat Hospitality Group, has opened Pilo's Beach Club in Miami Beach. Originally created as a pop-up in Southampton, New York, the beach club has found a permanent home as a 3,500-square-foot venue that features a wrap-around bar and functions as both a lounge and nightclub. Pilo's Beach Club takes its name from its sister establishments, Pilo's Street Tacos and Pilo's Tequila Garden, paying homage to Gonzalez's Aunt Pilo. For those inclined to a clandestine vibe, the establishment includes "Titi's Champagne Room," a speakeasy named after Gonzalez's son, Santiago. Friday and Saturday 10 p.m. to 4 a.m.
