Maison d'Azur Restaurant at Hotel Astor Miami Beach
Introducing the new Maison d'Azur Restaurant at Hotel Astor on South Beach. Maison translates simply
to mean "home" in French, and was conceived and designed as a beautiful Mediterranean residence in the
South of France.
The stunning 'French Riviera' style interiors feature warm amber lighting, earthy colors, soft, rich
fabrics and beautifully appointed furniture, with a panoramic view of our lushly landscaped central
garden which anchors the space. The majestic, candle light garden features night blooming jasmine
trees, towering bamboo reeds, flowing fountains, and a one of a kind stunning art nouveau mosaic
which presides over diners and sets the tone for a splendid evening under the stars. A perfect
compliment to intimacy of Hotel Astor.
With private cabanas, cozy communal seating, and outdoor banquettes, the garden is ideal for group
gatherings or intimate dining a deux. Maison also features an airy upstairs bar and lounge which
opens onto the Garden. And for the 'connoisseur du vin', a reserve private dining experience is
available in our dazzling all glass wine cellar.
At Maison, food is truly a passion; some would even say an obsession... We are so proud and
passionate about our ingredients that we created a "Market" in front of our open kitchen,
displaying all of our fresh fish on ice and allowing guests to see and choose their fish before
being cooked.
We use the absolute best possible ingredients, flown in daily from all around the world, for
unparalleled freshness and variety. We go to great lengths to search out small, family-owned
suppliers of extremely fine and rare ingredients and cultivate privileged relationships with
them. Our recipes are pure, light and simple; we let the ingredients speak for themselves.
Each single recipe offered to guests has been tested and retested countless times before it
earns a spot on the menu; this ensures that each dish was developed to its full perfection.
Chefs are known to drive owners crazy, here it's the opposite; we drive our chef crazy... and we
have a bit of fun in the process.
