Miami, meet your new Turkish obsession. Oliva by El Turco takes everything you love about El Turco and levels it up with sleek vibes and ridiculously good food. An elevated dinner calls for a cocktail in hand, and Oliva’s mixology game is on point. If you’re one for a rich, bold sip, the Mount Ararat Martini is for you—vodka, spiced espresso syrup, and Turkish coffee come together for a smooth, aromatic kick that hits just right.
Once it’s time for food, start strong with the Şehzade Tray—five knockout mezes, Turkish pickles, and warm, pillowy pide. Ready for the main event? The Çökertme Kebab is a flavor bomb—tender marinated beef, crispy fries, garlicky yogurt, and a rich tomato sauce. Oof. And dessert? Oh, honey. The Kazandibi, Ottoman-style caramelized milk pudding topped with cinnamon, is an absolute yes. Oliva is where tradition gets a glow-up. Chic, delicious, and absolutely worth the recent hype—pull up a chair and let the Turkish feast begin.
Let’s get the weekend started with happy hour at 305’s favorite Peruvian establishment—Costazul. Meet the dream team—chef Vanessa Vargas, a Peruvian flavor wizard, and Manuel Olaya, the mastermind turning his foodie passion into a Coral Gables hotspot. Together, they’re serving up fire dishes that blend tradition with a Miami edge.
Happy Hour here is a notch above neighboring joints. Available weekdays from 4 to 7 p.m., diners can choose from a plethora of the restaurant’s finest bites and bebidas for 2×1. That’s right—including vino, sangria, cervezas, mojitos, and refreshing chilcanos. For under $15, you’ll be snacking like royalty—think zesty vegetarian ceviche, crispy crab tequeños that disappear way too fast, and empanadas de ají de gallina drippin’ in rocoto salsa. It’s bold, it’s bougie, and it’s exactly where you need to be. Salud!
Costazul is located at 160 Giralda AV, Coral Gables, Florida 33134. For more information, visit their official website.
If you’re a self-proclaimed margarita connoisseur, make sure to bring yourself over to CJ’s Crab Shack this Saturday for National Margarita Day, where Jori’s “Soon to be Famous” Margarita just keeps pouring. Cazadores tequila, OJ, sour lime, and CJ’s secret ingredient—this margarita is boozy to the bone. With the ocean breeze and beachside feels, this Margarita Day is about to hit differently.
The only thing to round off the experience is some seafood bites that might just have you ordering a few extra Jori’s margaritas. Irresistible appetizers include the creamy spinach and artichoke crab dip, the crispy fried calamari with marinara sauce, snow crab clusters, and oysters on the half shell. This Saturday, it’s margaritas and seafood bliss at CJ’s.
