Gaia Miami

Gaia Miami is a Greek-Mediterranean restaurant in Miami Beach with a formal dress code, dinner service, and a bar open late. The clearest snapshot is simple: it is a higher-spend dinner choice, with the listed price at $120 per person, culinary direction from Izu Ani and Orestis Kotefas, and evening hours rather than lunch service. In practical terms, it is best read as a destination for a planned night out, not a casual stop between other daytime plans.

The case for booking is strongest if Greek-Mediterranean cooking is what you came for and the group is planning a dressed-up dinner in Miami Beach. Beyond the cuisine, price, chefs, dress code, and hours, avoid over-reading the listing: specific dishes, menu structure, seating areas, ratings, beverage details, and private-dining formats are not confirmed here. Treat the confirmed information as the framework, and make the reservation decision from there.

Greek-Mediterranean dinner in Miami Beach

Gaia Miami’s identity is Greek-Mediterranean, with Izu Ani and Orestis Kotefas listed as curating and founding chefs. That gives diners a clear reason to consider it when the plan calls for Mediterranean food in a more formal Miami Beach setting, especially when the cuisine and the tone of the evening matter as much as the location.

The confirmed schedule is dinner Sunday to Thursday from 5:30 PM to 10:30 PM, and Friday and Saturday from 5:30 PM to 11:00 PM. The bar is listed daily from 5:30 PM to 2:00 AM. For a deeper city scan before committing, use our full Miami Beach restaurants guide; for a broader trip plan around the area, the Miami Beach hotels guide, Miami Beach bars guide, Miami Beach wineries guide, and Miami Beach experiences guide are more useful than choosing dinner in isolation.

Book for dinner, with the late bar as part of the plan

The hours make Gaia Miami an evening venue. Dinner begins at 5:30 PM daily, with later dinner hours on Friday and Saturday, and the bar continues until 2:00 AM every day. That makes it a stronger fit for a planned night out than for anyone looking for a daytime meal, and it helps set expectations around timing before the group commits.

Guests should also take the formal dress code seriously. If the plan is a casual, beach-day meal, Gaia Miami may not be the right match. If the plan is a dressed-up Greek-Mediterranean dinner in Miami Beach at a listed price of $120 per person, the venue fits that brief more clearly. The important distinction is not just cost, but the overall formality of the evening.

Who should book, and who should skip it

Book if the priority is a formal Greek-Mediterranean dinner in Miami Beach, guided by the cooking of Izu Ani and Orestis Kotefas, with dinner service beginning at 5:30 PM and a bar open late. The most grounded way to judge the value is against the verified $120 per-person price and the kind of evening you want. For the right group, the appeal is the alignment of cuisine, setting, schedule, and dress code.

Skip it if the group wants lunch, casual value, or confirmed details about a specific menu format, signature dishes, seating style, ratings, or beverage program before committing. Those details may matter for some diners, and they are not established in the information here.
