How do I plan an evening out in Miami?
Miami eats late and dresses up. The strongest tables are spread across the water, a room in South Beach, a chef's counter in the Design District, a classic in Coral Gables, so a driver for the night lets you hold a reservation across town without hunting for parking.
Where dinner usually is: South Beach, the Design District, Brickell, Coconut Grove and Coral Gables.
The night moves, dinner in one neighborhood, a lounge in another, a club that doesn't fill until after midnight. Nobody wants to move their own car between them or wait out a surge at 3am.
Where the night tends to go after: South Beach, Wynwood, Brickell and the Design District.
Book the evening by the hour rather than as separate rides. Dinner, the next room and the ride home are one car and one driver, and nobody is waiting out a surge at closing. Four hours covers most evenings. If it runs longer, tell the concierge and they will extend it where the schedule allows.
