The Best Hotel Restaurants in Florida
By Firoz Khan · FK Digital Media
Florida means Miami Beach, and Miami Beach's grand hotels hold some of America's most famous dining rooms: pan-Asian fine dining at the Setai, Cantonese and steakhouse classics at the Fontainebleau, Top Chef and Chef's Table legends at Faena, and Nobu Matsuhisa's flagship in the landmark Eden Roc tower. We've written an original, independent guide to each of the six below: what the menu looks like, what it costs, and what we'd order. Prices are reported figures, dated honestly — never copied menus.
Miami Beach · The Setai
Jaya
The Setai's pan-Asian restaurant — chef Vijayudu Veena's $110 weekend brunch, Peking duck reported at $48, and a dining room wrapped in a tropical courtyard. Our guide walks through the menu highlights.

Search interest, then notability
We checked Google Trends (United States, past 12 months) for hotel-restaurant menu queries across five states. Florida won with a mean of 1.6 — "jaya setai menu" averaged 6.2 and "hakkasan miami menu" 1.7 — ahead of Texas (1.4), South Carolina (1.3), Washington DC (1.2), and Colorado (1.1). Both leaders headline this list; the rest earned their spots through chefs, awards, and history.
One beach, five hotels
All six are in Miami Beach — the Setai, the Fontainebleau (twice), Faena Hotel (twice), and Nobu Hotel Eden Roc. That's where Florida's hotel dining lives, from binchotan-seared Asian small plates to wood-fired Argentine asado.
Original writing, always
We never copy a restaurant's menu text or photos. Every guide is written in our own words from publicly reported facts — prices dated honestly, with a nudge to verify before you visit.
A note on prices
All prices on this site are reported as of 2026, gathered from the restaurants' official published materials and reputable public sources. Menus and prices change frequently — please verify with the restaurant before visiting.
