La Gloutonnerie

La Gloutonnerie Review

Far removed from South Beach's mass-market deco drive strip, this intimate "vintage kitchen" brings the best of French old-school cuisine to the beach's more refined SoFi (South of Fifth) neighborhood. The chef presents everything you'd desire from a renowned French kitchen from escargots Bourgogne to chateubriand while adding new-world flavors and fusions to the mix with dishes such as the shrimp carpaccio Santa Margherita (cured in peach and citrus juice) and an assortment of fresh pasta entrees. Within the restaurant, a retro mini-market offers cheese, cold cuts, and imported French products. Add stylish black and white decor, stellar service, and a hip crowd, and you have the perfect recipe for keeping history in style.
