Perricone's Marketplace & Cafe

The last thing you expect to discover on the outskirts of downtown Miami is a cozy New England barn sitting in a quiet park surrounded by lush vegetation, but that's exactly what you find at Perricone's Market Place and Cafe in Brickell's Mary Brickell Village. Its resistance to rampant modernity is a welcome surprise in the shadows of sky-scraping banks that line the famous Brickell Avenue along Biscayne Bay.

Make sure to check out ladies' night every Wednesday from 5 to 11pm for up to 3 complimentary Prosecco, Bellini's, Pinot Grigio or Merlot per guest, with the purchase of any entree from the menu.

Inside this seemingly humble restaurant and market is a dining and shopping experience that reflects the owner's taste for fine food, wine and wonderful intimacy.  Proprietor Steven Perricone's vision for the restaurant and marketplace was a home built in the early 1900's on this site. His wish to convey old world charm and warmth was found in the wooden walls and floors of the old house.

During renovations however, a non-supporting wall was removed and the roof which held a cistern collapsed, rendering the building unusable. Undaunted, Steven went to Vermont in search of and found a well preserved wooden barn (circa 1700) that held within it's walls the geniality that was destroyed in the old home. Piece by piece the barn was taken apart and brought to Miami so that the hand hewn beams, walls and flooring would grace the restaurant and marketplace, while also complementing the natural environment of the park and trees surrounding it.

Whether it is the hearty Sunday Brunch, fast business lunch, a relaxing dining experience or taking home delicious treasures, Perricone's owner and gracious staff are intent on providing you with food and service in an atmosphere of friendly ambiance.
