Casadonna: Another sign that Miami has become a gastronomic capital.

(By Maqueda) Located at the vibrant 1737 N Bayshore Drive, Miami, FL 33132, Casadonna is not just a restaurant; it’s an experience that awakens the senses and celebrates the rich cultural diversity of our city. Since its opening, this space has captured the attention of food lovers, becoming a must-visit destination for those seeking quality and creativity in every dish.

Casadonna is a restaurant inspired by the cuisine of the Italian coast, developed in collaboration between Groot Hospitality and Tao Group Hospitality. The new concept accommodates 366 diners indoors, outdoors, and at the bar. Designed by Ken Fulk, the restaurant is located in the same Mediterranean-style building as the historic Women's Club of Miami, in the blossoming Edgewater neighborhood.

A culinary journey in the heart of Miami:

The atmosphere of Casadonna reflects its philosophy: a fusion of modernity and warmth. With stunning views of Biscayne Bay, the restaurant provides the perfect setting for a romantic dinner or a celebration with friends. The decor, elegant and inviting, complements the culinary experience, making each visit memorable.

 

The menu at Casadonna pays homage to contemporary gastronomy, where each dish tells a story. With influences from Mediterranean cuisine and Caribbean touches, the chefs use fresh, seasonal ingredients, elevating familiar flavors to new heights. From their exquisite octopus carpaccio to innovative tapas, each bite is an explosion of flavor.

Located in the historic Women’s Club of Miami, inaugurated in 1926 and listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places, Casadonna takes its name from a fusion of Italian words that translates to “house of the woman.” The restaurant aims to be an exceptional culinary destination, offering an Italian Riviera-style dining experience with handcrafted dishes inspired by traditional recipes from cities like Naples, Taormina, Bari, Positano, and Gaeta.

David Grutman, founder of Groot Hospitality, and Noah Tepperberg of Tao Group have joined forces in this project that goes beyond friendship. Grutman commented: “He’s not just my best friend; he’s also a great support in my career.” Together, they bring an impressive portfolio of restaurants and a clear vision to make Casadonna a reference in Miami’s dining scene.

With a capacity of over 300 diners, the restaurant features a captivating design by Ken Fulk that will enchant visitors from the moment they arrive. The experience begins at a garden-style patio bar, where a retractable roof and arched windows allow guests to enjoy the bay breeze, all surrounded by lush floral elements. This space, which took nearly six years to complete, offers spectacular views that complement the culinary offerings.

This approach is enhanced by personalized cocktails and an extensive wine list. Casadonna opens on weekends for brunch and dinner.

The menu at Casadonna is a celebration for food lovers. From crispy artichokes with Amalfi lemon and garlic aioli to Wagyu beef carpaccio and swordfish, each dish is designed to delight. Among the main courses, highlights include a veal chop with caramelized garlic and a salt-crusted branzino. Grutman emphasizes his preference for pasta, which he says, “is more olive oil than red sauce,” including options like lemon scialatelli with caviar and squid ink spaghetti with lobster.

Both owners are open to future collaborations in South Florida and beyond. “We are both known for scaling successful brands, and hopefully, we can take this to other markets,” they stated.

With its combination of history, elegance, and a unique culinary proposal, Casadonna is shaping up to be a new emblem of gastronomy in Miami. If you’re looking for a place to enjoy an exceptional dining experience, there’s no doubt this restaurant should be on your list. The grand opening is scheduled for October 26, and Casadonna will undoubtedly be a destination you won’t want to miss.

But it’s not just the food that shines at Casadonna; its wine list is one of the most comprehensive in Miami, offering a carefully curated selection that ranges from local wines to international labels that perfectly pair with each dish.

 

And, of course, we can’t forget the service. The team at Casadonna is trained to provide exceptional customer service, always ready to recommend the best pairing or the dish of the day, ensuring that every visit is unique.

In summary, Casadonna has established itself as a gastronomic reference in Miami, a place where the passion for cooking translates into dishes that delight and surprise. Whether you’re looking for an intimate dinner, a special celebration, or just a night of good food, this restaurant is the ideal destination.

¿Por qué Miami es la capital de los rooftops 2025? ¿Cuáles son los top?

(Por Vera) Miami fue una de las primeras ciudades en América donde los rooftops se convirtieron en una tendencia popular, pero la idea no necesariamente se copió del modelo de Monte Carlo u otro lugar específico. La proliferación de rooftops en Miami fue parte de una tendencia global en la industria de la hospitalidad y el entretenimiento urbano, y una serie de condiciones hoy hacen que Miami sea la capital de los rooftops.

Un colapso del tribalismo fanático ideológico está atacando (y matando) a todo lo que se enfrente a la militancia de izquierda (¿Por qué?)

(Por una cocreación junto Ristretto, con Taylor-Molina-Alonso-Maurizio) Imagine que su cerebro tiene un interruptor tribal. Cuando se activa, su córtex prefrontal —sede del razonamiento— se apaga, y la amígdala —centro del miedo— toma el control. Este mecanismo, descrito por el neurocientífico Marco Iacoboni en "Mirroring People", es el arma secreta del populismo del siglo XXI.

Impacto mundial: ¿por qué acciones y oro marcan máximos históricos en un mundo que teme el alza de tasas? (cuando las malas noticias… son buenas)

(Por Taylor desde Silicon Beach) Los máximos históricos simultáneos de renta variable y oro no reflejan optimismo económico; al contrario: celebran el temor. En los mercados modernos, la probabilidad de recortes de tipos por parte de la Reserva Federal y otros bancos centrales convierte las noticias macroeconómicas negativas en catalizadores alcistas. Paradójicamente hay mucho de positivo en todo esto, y no.

Asesinan a Charlie Kirk, aliado de Trump, en tiroteo durante evento en universidad de Utah: reacciones y claves del crimen

(Por Taylor-Molina) El gobernador Spencer Cox (Utah) califica el hecho como "asesinato político"; Trump ordena banderas a media asta y promete "justicia". La comunidad internacional está conmocionada. La paradoja es que tanto se dice que la derecha, los conservadores, los libertarios atacan a la prensa, hoy una vez más, todo pensador, esta vez un comentarista y miembro activo de los medios,  defensor de la familia,  del matrimonio, de las libres ideas, de la fé judeo cristiana, del respeto por la mujer,  por los niños, por la libertad, es asesinado.

Empresas de Latam pierden US$ 287.000 Millones/Anual: error mortal, subestimar el marketing real (phydigital) en la era crossing (parte III)

(Por Maqueda, Maurizio y Otero) En 2025, mientras el mundo celebra la IA y el metaverso, LATAM comete un suicidio corporativo masivo: el 73% de sus empresas han eliminado stands, equipos de activación y presupuesto para OOH (publicidad exterior), creyendo que el “marketing digital” es la panacea (Datos: eMarketer). El resultado: marcas desangrándose en un océano de algoritmos, incapaces de conectar con humanos reales. Este artículo no es una crítica: es un plan de rescate.
