Beauty and the Butcher

About

Located in the heart of Coral Gables, Beauty and the Butcher is a culinary masterclass from Top Chef winner Jeremy Ford. This Michelin-recommended gem is a standout addition to the Pride Nav gay map, offering a sophisticated yet welcoming environment for the LGBTQ+ community in Miami. The restaurant’s name is a poetic nod to Ford’s eldest daughter (the beauty) and his own craft (the butcher). The interior strikes a perfect balance between sleek modernism and cozy comfort, featuring forest green leather booths, warm wood accents, and a stunning quartz bar showcasing dry-aged meats. For gay men looking for a high-end date night or queer foodies chasing the next great seasonal plate, this venue delivers with every bite. From the signature 'Little Piggy' bourbon cocktail to the Szechuan-cured hamachi, the menu is a celebration of complexity and South Florida flair. Whether you’re a local or a visitor exploring the broader Miami queer scene, Beauty and the Butcher provides a queer-friendly dining experience that feels both exclusive and inclusive. It’s more than just a restaurant; it’s a destination where fine dining meets heartfelt hospitality, making it a premier stop on any queer travel itinerary.
