Dubai-Born Gaia Brings Its Simple Yet Glamorous Mediterranean Flavors to Miami

Gaia, which will make its United States debut when it opens its Miami location in March, is a glamorous, globally minded restaurant where everything just blends. 

Gaia launched in Dubai in 2018 and has expanded to Monaco, Doha, London and Marbella; it serves Mediterranean food with an emphasis on Greek flavors. The restaurant is led by Nigerian-British chef Izu Ani, who cooked at some of Europe’s most avant-garde and elite restaurants before realizing he wanted to do something simpler and more nourishing.
