A new jewel in Miami’s nightlife crown is about to take center stage.  Habibi Miami isn’t your average supper club. Imagine a technicolor collision of the French and Moroccan Rivieras, dreamt up by Wes Anderson. The team behind the beloved Kiki on the River joins forces again, conjuring a vibrant space channeling the spirit of Marrakech and the South of France.

Think pink and teal hues, a playful nod to Sgt. Pepper’s era psychedelia, and a touch of Moorish grandeur. Ghosthouse Design Group and Love Lake Studios weave their magic, crafting a space that feels like stepping into a luxurious riad – a rectangular garden transformed into a whimsical tent.

The first restaurant

Habibi Miami might be the first to bring the Moroccan Riviera’s spirit to Miami’s nightlife scene. A dramatic 30-foot red carpet sets the stage for what awaits: a lavish 200-seat wonderland. Picture plush velvet booths, cascading chandeliers, and an opulent tapestry of Turkish rugs and silken drapes.

The party extends to the waterfront patio, where sunset soirees come alive with the rhythmic charm of belly dancers and the gentle whoosh of hookah pipes. Theatrical flair takes center stage with a program that promises more than just your average meal.

 

The menu is a vibrant tapestry of influences.  Middle Eastern-inspired small plates like Merguez sausage nestled in warm blankets and whole roasted cauliflower with earthy mushrooms share space with comforting classics like Wagyu burger sliders. 

Expect unexpected pairings like miso-honey glazed sea bass skewers and a selection of sushi alongside a delectable array of tea service and decadent desserts like Turkish mastic ice cream and halva cheesecake.

Exclusive food and drinks

The beverage program is no less adventurous. North African and Mediterranean flavors weave through the cocktail list, promising an explosion of taste and aroma.  Imagine an “Ali” Fashioned, a peanut butter dream featuring Angel’s Envy bourbon and hints of banana and honey, or a Moroccan Margarita rimmed with roasted couscous salt and infused with the fiery kick of harissa.
