Some days, work just takes it out of you. Maybe it was endless meetings, an overflowing inbox, or that one coworker who really tested your patience. Whatever the case, you need a reset—preferably with a cocktail in hand and some darn good food. We’ve got you covered: These Miami spots are perfect for unwinding, recharging, and momentarily forgetting that work even exists.
Long day? Shake it off at Gao, a Vietnamese hotspot that brings serious energy to South Beach. Think pho, beef satay, shrimp pad Thai, and other specialties that wake up your taste buds after a mind-numbing workday. The vibe? Lively, with dim lighting and just the right amount of buzz to make you forget about that email you ignored. Finish up your meal with a lychee trifle, and suddenly, the stress melts away—one bite at a time.
GAO is permanently closed.
