Job Description
A smart, modern update of the classic steakhouse template, this is South Florida dining that is effortless in its elegance.

Sweeping beach views during the day and luminous starlit nights set the scene at this luxury boutique steakhouse, designed with a fresh, clean, nautical feel that draws deep inspiration from the ocean- just look at the centerpiece reef aquarium, home to live jellyfish that gently undulate as you eat.
