Michelin-Starred Chef’s Arrival Highlights Coral Gables’ Elite Restaurant Scene

Coral Gables is one of South Florida’s most desirable places to live for many reasons, including its incredible dining options. Award-winning chefs and restaurateurs continue to expand into the City Beautiful to meet the demand from residents, professionals and visitors. 

In one prominent example, New York-based chef Michael White – a James Beard Award winner whose restaurants have received six Michelin stars – just made his Coral Gables debut with Mika. Now open at The Plaza Coral Gables, which is just a few blocks from condominium building Merrick Manor, Mika offers the best of Italian coastal cuisine.  

“I really want this to be a Coral Gables restaurant,” White told the Miami Herald. “Mika is not necessarily a special occasion restaurant. You can order crudo and pasta and eat simply and be in an out in an hour, or you could go more than once a week.” 

Mika is the latest addition to the city’s bustling restaurant scene, as Coral Gables boasts its own Restaurant Row on Giralda Avenue. There is something for everyone in the City Beautiful.

Merrick Manor is down to JUST ONE developer-owned condominium available for purchase. The developer of Merrick Manor is also making a limited inventory of parking spaces available for purchase at the condo building.  

Located at 301 Altara Avenue, the 10-story, 227-residence Merrick Manor’s pet-friendly amenities and lifestyle truly cannot be beat. Merrick Manor is just steps away from the world-class Shops at Merrick Park and has a Zillow Walk Score of 77, making it “very walkable.”
