Watr at the 1 Rooftop Miami

Watr sits on the 18th floor of 2341 Collins Ave. It is a five-minute walk from the sands of South Beach. The room runs smart and elegant, serving a fusion of Japanese and South American cuisine.

Most restaurants on this stretch of Collins Avenue lean into the noise of the ground floor. Watr is the exception, trading the street-level crush for a high vantage point. It is a better choice than the beachside bistros if you want to avoid the crowds, as the quiet of the rooftop is its primary asset. While the surrounding district offers dozens of dining options, few provide this particular remove from the pavement.
