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.
Now Open: PLAY Sporting Lounge
If your usual bar rotation needs a reset, this is a different scale entirely. Now open at CityPlace Doral, PLAY Sporting Lounge leans into the full night-out format—12,000 square feet, a packed patio, and a mix of dining, drinks, and built-in entertainment that goes beyond just catching a game. Inside, there are simulator suites for everything from golf to soccer, plus digital dart lanes and a steady backdrop of live sports across 60 screens. The food holds its own, with raw bar towers, truffled lobster mac, brisket tacos, and a solid lineup of burgers and shareables. Cocktails follow suit, with mezcal, rum, and tequila-driven options rounding things out. It’s designed for groups, but works just as easily as a drop-in plan when the night needs more than one stop.
PLAY Sporting Lounge is located at 3450 NW 83rd Ave Suite 145, Doral, FL 33166. For more information, visit their official website.
Now Through May 31: A Group-Friendly Graduation Dinner at KYU
Graduation season tends to mean large groups and even larger expectations—KYU is meeting both with a set format that keeps things easy without dialing anything down. Running through May 31, the restaurant is offering an $80 per person, three-course Graduation Experience built around its signature dishes and designed for sharing. Think smoked chili tuna crispy rice, sweet soy baby back ribs, and buttery Japanese sweet potato, to name a few. There are also a few extras built in: graduating guests get a complimentary Pink Puppy cocktail, while parties of six or more also receive a Pork Guy appetizer. Make your reservation in advance.
KYU is located at 251 NW 25th St, Miami, FL 33127. For more information, visit their official website.

A Slower Start to the Week at Donatella
For nights that don’t call for a full production, Donatella is introducing a more contained way to settle in. Now through July 31, the Miami Beach spot is offering a three-course menu on Sundays and Mondays, built as a streamlined take on its usual experience. Priced at $60 per person (with an optional $30 wine pairing), the menu moves through antipasti, primi, and dolce, with dishes like burrata, fritto misto, rigatoni with spicy nduja, and Amalfi lemon fettuccine, followed by a rotating dessert. Mains like coal-seared salmon or filet mignon round it out. It’s a tighter format, but still hits the same notes.
Donatella is located at 1350 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.

Mahjong Nights + Dinner Hours at Sadelle’s Coconut Grove
Sadelle’s is stretching past its daytime lane. Starting April 9, the restaurant introduces Mahjong Social, a biweekly series running every other Thursday from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m., alongside newly launched dinner service through 9 p.m., Thursday to Saturday.
The Mahjong nights, hosted by Rachel Weissman (TheMahjBoss), are open to all levels, with a structured format that mixes instruction and gameplay. Tickets are $70 and include a reserved seat, entry into a door prize, and a spread of Sadelle’s dishes—pizzas like funghi or fennel sausage, chopped salads, triple-decker sandwiches, and coconut shrimp. At the same time, dinner service adds dishes like roasted salmon, garlic chicken, and quesadillas to the existing menu. Together, the updates shift Sadelle’s into a more complete day-to-night spot in Coconut Grove.
Sadelle’s is located at 3321 Mary St, Miami, FL 33133. For more information, visit their official website.
A One-Night Wine Dinner at Edan Bistro
This Thursday, Edan Bistro is hosting a one-night-only wine dinner with Spain’s Bodega Agrourdiense. The evening centers around a seven-course tasting menu from Chef Aitor Garate Berasaluze, paired with wines known for their minimal-intervention style and high-altitude Garnacha. Served family-style, the format keeps things communal without losing the pacing of a proper tasting. At $135 per person, it’s a more involved night out—best suited for when dinner is the main event. Seats are limited, so reserve yours in advance.
Edan Bistro is located at 650 NE 125th St, North Miami, FL 33161. For more information, visit their official website.

Pilates, But Elevated at BODYWELLE
Wellness takes a sharper turn on April 11, when BODYWELLE hosts SkyJet Pilates inside a private jet hangar—an experience geared toward jet-owners. The event blends movement with presentation, with Setai St. Martin also on-site, previewing its upcoming residences. It tracks with BODYWELLE’s approach overall: clinical, results-driven, but positioned within a more elevated lifestyle space. Beyond the event, their April offerings lean into that same idea, with packages built around skin and body treatments—think complimentary peels with facials, added EMT one sessions with Emsculpt NEO, and buy-one-get-one laser hair removal, to name a few. It’s less about one-off treatments and more about stacking results.
