A staple of the Miami dining scene, Sugarcane Raw Bar & Grill has ended its 15-year stint in Midtown. The restaurant, known for its crafty cocktails and eclectic menu, shuttered at the end of January, as reported by Local 10. The closing came with subdued fanfare, a brief nod to its decade and a half of service on their social media.
Located at 3252 NE First Ave, Sugarcane was part of the fabric of the Midtown neighborhood. In a heartfelt farewell post on its website, the restaurant said, "Thank you, Miami, for an unforgettable run. Together we have made many memories." While this door has closed, fans of the Sugarcane experience can still seek out its flavors at their Las Vegas location, nestled in the Venetian hotel, Sugarcane's website notes.
The establishment was renowned not just for its food but for the life events that its patrons celebrated within its confines – from engagement parties to promotion dinners. The dining spot leaves behind a legacy of being the go to local place, as immortalized in their final statement, "We brought it all to Midtown and you chose us year after year." For Miami locals saddened by the loss of their favorite dining spot, there's comfort in knowing its signature flavors—like the Spice of Love cocktail or goat cheese croquette—can still be found in Las Vegas. The Sugarcane team reminds patrons, "And after January, when you get a craving for a Spice of Love or a goat cheese croquette or Torrejas, remember that Sugarcane Las Vegas is only a plane ride away! We hope to see you there!" as mentioned on its official website.
