Each week, we round up what’s worth your time right now—from new menus and pop-up moments to festivals, openings, and low-key excuses to go out on a weeknight. Consider this your curated snapshot of the city as it moves through the week ahead: where to eat, what to drink, and what’s quietly (or loudly) happening around town.
Leonardo Brings a Taste of Old-School Italy to Miami Beach

Miami Beach‘s newest Italian hotspot is giving us plenty of reasons to stop by this week. Leonardo channels the glamour of classic Italian-American supper clubs with a lineup of new experiences that go far beyond dinner. Weekend brunch has officially arrived, complete with indulgent touches like a live omelet station, cheese wheel presentations, and flowing champagne. Throughout the week, guests can swing by Aperó Hour for $10 cocktails and elevated bites, while Monday’s Prohibition Club transforms the space into a Gatsby-era affair with live saxophone music, vintage-inspired décor, and late-night energy. If your summer plans call for pasta, spritzes, and a little old-world charm, Leonardo deserves a spot on the list.
