CLAUDIE | Brickell | Miami

A Taste of the French Riviera in the Heart of Brickell

There’s a certain kind of magic that happens when the sun hits a glass of rosé just so, when the clink of cutlery mingles with sea breezes and laughter, and a table becomes more than a place to eat—it becomes a place to savor life.

At CLAUDIE, a French coastal restaurant tucked into Miami’s vibrant Brickell neighborhood, that magic comes alive night after night. With its refined yet relaxed approach to French dining, CLAUDIE feels like a little passport to Provence—a world away from the high-energy streets just outside its doors.

Where Sunlight Meets the Sea

The menu at CLAUDIE is rooted in la cuisine du soleil—literally, “the cuisine of the sun.” This philosophy celebrates fresh, vibrant ingredients, prepared simply to let their natural flavors shine.

Here, you’ll find delicate plates like Branzino Carpaccio kissed with citrus, Burrata di Puglia with ripe tomatoes and basil, and warm, garlicky Escargot served the old-world way. For dessert, the Tarte Tropézienne, a pillowy confection from Saint-Tropez, brings a sweet reminder of Mediterranean summers.


“We wanted to create a menu that feels light, joyful, and full of life,” says the culinary team. “It’s about slowing down and savoring—not just eating.”


The Spirit of the Côte d’Azur

Walking into CLAUDIE feels a bit like stepping into a coastal village café along the French Riviera. The décor is airy and elegant, with soft lighting, natural textures, and just the right amount of polish. Linen-draped tables invite you to linger, while warm wood and creamy stone tones evoke seaside charm.

It’s the kind of space where you can arrive in a breezy sundress or a crisp button-down and feel perfectly at home—sophisticated without being stuffy.

Wine That Tells a Story

CLAUDIE’s carefully curated wine list has earned it a Wine Spectator Award, a testament to the team’s dedication to pairing each dish with just the right pour. Expect a thoughtful mix of French coastal varietals, crisp whites, and sparkling selections perfect for toasting life’s little victories.

Whether you’re a sommelier in the making or just someone who knows what they like, the staff makes wine approachable and fun—never intimidating.

Carpe Diem, the CLAUDIE Way

CLAUDIE’s unofficial mantra could easily be carpe diem—seize the day, or in this case, the evening. Meals here are meant to be an experience: a romantic date, a special celebration, or simply a chance to step away from the whirlwind of city life.

As the night unfolds, time seems to slow. A second glass of wine leads to laughter, dessert appears as if by magic, and suddenly you’re reminded of why dining out can feel like a small, beautiful adventure.
