Father’s Day weekend at Viceroy Miami features cigar rolling, live jazz music and gourmet BBQ fare
– | No Comment

This Father’s Day, dad deserves the weekend of laid-back extravagance he craves. To celebrate the dad who enjoys great food and a spectacular atmosphere, Viceroy Miami’s Eos restaurant will be transformed into a lounge with a Speakeasy-like atmosphere on Saturday, June 15 with a live jazz band, hand-rolled cigars and a gourmet a la carte BBQ menu prepared by Executive Chef Morgan Nims. The weekend will continue on Sunday with an exceptional three-course prix fixe dinner.

Before celebrating with the kids on Sunday, the evening on Saturday starts inside Eos with a complimentary champagne aperitif. Guests will indulge in a special gourmet BBQ menu, featuring selections such as smoky cowboy steak with cipollini onion jam, tobacco onions and rosemary fingerling potatoes. Dinner will be finished with a homemade Hennessey-infused dessert.

After dinner, dads can complete the evening with a hand-rolled cigar on the Terrace at Eos. Amidst live tunes from the greatest jazz legends, guests will enjoy sipping on a Hennessy cognac flight paired with passed truffles and fruit tarts while overlooking Biscayne Bay from the 15th floor.

After the smoke clears, bring the whole family for a Father’s Day dinner on Sunday with a three-course prix fixe menu and wine pairing. Below are full menu options for Father’s Day weekend.
