@casa_neos is expanding its after-dark energy with the debut of a sophisticated new lounge and a members-only rooftop perched above the Miami River.@rivieradininggroup has officially unveiled CASA NEOS Lounge and the exclusive CASA NEOS @mm_membersclub rooftop, transforming the 30,000-square-foot destination into a vertically layered nightlife experience where dining, music, and membership converge. Located on the third floor, the Lounge begins the evening with the restaurant’s full Mediterranean-inspired dinner menu before evolving into a DJ-driven late-night scene with elevated bottle service. One level above, the open-air CASA NEOS MM rooftop offers a more intimate, members-only setting designed as a “jardin suspendu” overlooking the river — blending lush design, candlelit ambiance, and a refined cocktail program.“At CASA NEOS, we think vertically. Each level introduces its own mood, while remaining part of a single, continuous experience,” said Riviera Dining Group Founder and CEO @greg_galy. “The Lounge and the members-only rooftop are designed to work in dialogue with one another, offering guests the freedom to shape their evening without having to choose between dinner, nightlife, or intimacy.” With Mediterranean coastal cuisine led by 26-Michelin-star @chef_michaelidis and design inspired by Southern Europe’s hidden courtyards and rooftop gardens, the new spaces further position CASA NEOS as a distinctive late-night destination along the Miami River. by @michaelridard

Repost from @floridaoftomorrow and @claudierestaurant •Opening February 7, CLAUDIE joins the Riviera Dining Group family, alongside its celebrated sisters MILA, CASA NEOS, AVA MediterrAegean and MM, bringing the timeless charm of the South of France to Miami’s Brickell neighborhood. Inspired by “la cuisine du soleil” and the legendary Roger Vergé, Chef Michaël Michaelidis crafts a menu of Mediterranean delights like Caviar Linguine and Table-Side Gazpacho. With its intoxicating blend of sun-kissed flavors, artistic heritage, and lively Mediterranean energy, CLAUDIE invites guests to savor every bite and toast to the magic of the Côte d’Azur in the heart of Miami.🧡🧡🧡 by @michaelridard
