Bâoli

Bâoli is a garden lounge and club in the heart of South Beach where dinner gradually becomes one of the neighbourhood’s most stylish late nights. Part restaurant, part bar, part club, it centres on a lush open-air garden, and over the course of an evening it shifts from an Asian-Mediterranean dinner into music, cocktails and a dance floor, without ever quite feeling like a nightclub.

The menu spans sushi and Mediterranean plates designed for sharing across a long, leisurely dinner, with a serious cocktail list to match. The clever move is to book a table: dinner gives you the best seats and a natural way into the night as the lights dim, the music rises and the crowd dresses up. It is glamour with staying power.

Bâoli is ideal for groups and couples who want dinner and dancing in one place, rather than choosing between a restaurant and a club. It is social, polished and made for a celebration, so it leans late and lively rather than quiet. Reserve a dinner table to get the best of the evening, especially at weekends.

Come for dinner and stay for the night. Bâoli sits in South Beach, about an eight-minute drive from the residence, an easy trip for a glamorous evening that runs from the table to the dance floor.
