Miami Marketta Brings Parisian Charm to the GC


Miami Marketta is launching a brand-new dining experience, bringing a touch of Parisian charm to the Gold Coast when it opens on Friday, March 7. 

Located within the front of Marketta on Hillcrest Parade in Miami, Mona Lisa’s Lair is a glamorous Champagne-style intimate restaurant and bar offering a French-inspired fusion à la carte restaurant. 

If you’ve ever wandered the Left Bank in Paris' Latin Quarter, you’ll be familiar with its cosy, candlelit restaurants serving raclette and fondue – and that’s exactly what Mona Lisa’s Lair will be dishing up.

Capturing that essence, the restaurant will transport guests with a boastful menu, extensive Champagne list, the sound of French music in the background and a setting hidden behind a stunning stained-glass window. 

Menu items will delight and excite tastebuds – think blue cheese caramel tart (with roast white chocolate, caramel sauce, caraway shortbread and caramelised pear), goats’ cheese, honey and fennel doughnuts (fennel and orange doughnuts, honey gel, pistachio dukkah), Marketta raclette (with baby potato, pickles, market vegetables and sourdough) and pork and apple crumble (pork belly with toasted marshmallow, burnt apple jam, poached rhubarb, macadamia and almond crumble, fermented chilli sauce).

The restaurant will also be available for private event bookings, offering a unique and elegant setting for special occasions.
