The Surf Club Restaurant by Chef Thomas Keller Miami

The Surf Club Restaurant sits on Collins Avenue in Surfside, just steps from the sand. It holds a Michelin star and an Excellence Award from Wine Spectator. The room runs smart and elegant, leaning into a classic French approach to seafood.

This is the place to choose if you want the polish of a historic club with the restraint of Thomas Keller’s kitchen. While much of the local dining scene prioritizes high-energy, neon-lit excess, this room remains quiet and deliberate. It offers a formal experience that feels disconnected from the bustle of the nearby Bal Harbour Shops. You come here for a meal that prizes technique over the loud theatrics common elsewhere in the city.
