The brasserie elevates gastro-classic dining via sophisticated techniques and commitment to quality, combined with stunning interiors and views of the Miami River and downtown skyline. Seaspice has brought a vision unlike any other to the Miami River, where locals and tourists flock to get a taste of the signature wood-fired casseroles and uniquely crafted cocktails, and take in the breathtaking scenery that is special to Seaspice.
