Multi-level Southeast Asian restaurant and lounge by David Grutman — signature floating bird's nests, Peking duck, and full sushi bar.
David Grutman opened Komodo in 2015 in Brickell, turning a dormant ground-floor space into his flagship restaurant and the first concept under what is now Groot Hospitality. The three-story space set the template for Grutman's Miami hospitality empire, pairing Southeast Asian-inspired cooking with a high-energy, nightlife-adjacent design.
Bold Southeast Asian dishes with global influences, including the Peking duck, Lobster Dynamite, and a full sushi bar, served across a 300-seat, three-story space with floating 'birds' nest' seating and a rooftop lounge. The room is built for spectacle as much as the food, with a design-forward, high-energy atmosphere that has made it a Brickell fixture.
Reservations are strongly recommended, especially on weekends, since the restaurant runs busy every night it's open. Dress code leans upscale-casual (no jean shorts), and the third-floor Komodo Lounge shifts into a nightlife venue later in the evening.
