Juliette Opens in Little Italy This Fall (With Three Bars & Dancing!)

Little Italy is getting a new way to make a night of it. Juliette, a French-inspired restaurant, cocktail lounge, and late-night destination, is coming to the north end of the neighborhood at 2400 India Street in late fall.

It’s bringing dinner, drinks, music, and dancing together under one roof, so one stop is all you’ll need for the whole evening.

One Evening That Keeps Evolving

Inspired by European dining and nightlife, Juliette is designed around one continuous evening.

You can start with dinner and cocktails, then watch the space gradually shift into a more energetic atmosphere, with late-night music and dancing later in the week.

There’s no need to pick a second stop. Come for a leisurely dinner, stay for the dance floor, or do a little of both.

French Cuisine With a Coastal Twist

Executive Chef Lucas Moreira, a Brazilian-born chef with experience in Michelin-starred kitchens, leads the kitchen.

The menu will be French at its core with a lighter coastal sensibility and fresh local seafood, so dinner feels as good as the night that follows.

Expect classic French technique with a fresh, seasonal touch that suits Little Italy’s coastal setting. It’s a menu designed to be savored slowly before the music picks up.

A Bar for Every Mood

Juliette will feature three bars: a main dining room bar, a lounge bar, and a dedicated zero-proof and seltzer bar, so there’s a pour for everyone.

Music is at the heart of the experience too, with a state-of-the-art sound system and resident and guest DJs bringing house and electronic music as the room turns into a dance floor.

The Team and the Design

Juliette comes from local restaurateur Diego Girault of Chez Loma, lifelong friends Luis Carlos Ahuage, Bruno Perez, and Galo Gonzalez, and hospitality veteran Matt Spencer.

House of Kirschner, the internationally acclaimed firm behind Bagatelle Miami, is designing an environment of immersive luxury, sophisticated interiors, and playful touches.

See you there!

Juliette is definitely shaping up to be one of Little Italy’s most exciting new spots.
