Lightkeepers, the casually elegant restaurant and bar housed at The Ritz-Carlton Key Biscayne, Miami recently launched a revamped weekend brunch, inviting guests to enjoy the ultimate brunch experience while overlooking the Atlantic.

Dishes For the Table include Brussel Sprouts, Roasted Jumbo Asparagus, Garlic Oil and Herb Fries, Seasonal Berries, Smoked Bacon, Pork Sausage and Ham + Cheese Croquette.

A satisfying weekend brunch is incomplete without a stellar beverage lineup. On Saturday and Sunday, Lightkeeper’s offers the Bottomless Beverage + Bubbly Package, available with food purchase, which includes unlimited bubbly, brunch punch, sangria, Bloody Mary’s, draft beer and mimosas for $25 per person.
