Milanese hospitality institution Sant Ambroeus announces its second Miami location at MIRAI Design District, which will follow the brand’s inaugural Miami opening in South Beach in 2027.
Sant Ambroeus will occupy approximately 5,000 square feet at MIRAI Design District, where the concept will include a full-service restaurant, coffee bar, and outdoor dining experience slated to open in 2028. The space will be designed by internationally acclaimed architect and designer Fabrizio Casiraghi, whose work is known for blending timeless European elegance with contemporary sensibility. More than a traditional restaurant outpost, the space is envisioned as an all-day gathering place woven into the daily life of the neighborhood.
Developed by WellDuo, Leviathan Development, Lionheart Capital and The Lane Organization, MIRAI Design District is the first mixed-use development in the United States by internationally acclaimed architect Kengo Kuma and Associates (KKAA). The project marks a significant milestone for the influential Japanese architect, whose work has become synonymous with blending architecture, nature, and cultural experience.
“Sant Ambroeus represents exactly the kind of thoughtful, design-conscious hospitality we envisioned for MIRAI,” said Eduardo Pelaez, principal of WellDuo. “The brand has a rare ability to create spaces that feel simultaneously international and deeply personal, rooted in elegance, culture, and everyday experience. Their presence helps define the type of environment we’re building at MIRAI: curated, design-driven, and centered around how people actually want to gather, linger, and experience Miami beautifully.”
Founded in Milan in 1936, Sant Ambroeus has become internationally recognized for blending Milanese sophistication with contemporary New York energy, cultivating a loyal following across fashion, art, design, and hospitality circles. With locations spanning Milan, New York, Palm Beach, Aspen, Paris, and now expanding further into Miami, the brand has long positioned itself within neighborhoods where culture, creativity, and lifestyle naturally converge. The brand’s arrival at MIRAI further reinforces the project as a curated cultural destination where hospitality, architecture, fashion, and daily life intersect.
“At Sant Ambroeus, we’ve always looked for locations that already possess a strong sense of identity, culture, and creative energy,” said Gaetano Guarducci, managing partner of SA Hospitality Group. “MIRAI immediately felt aligned with that philosophy. The architecture, the emphasis on thoughtful design, and the evolving energy of this part of the Design District made it feel like a natural fit for our next chapter in Miami. As Miami continues to evolve into a truly global city, we’re excited to deepen our roots here in a neighborhood that already speaks so naturally to the worlds of fashion, art, design, and hospitality.”
