A Journey Through Flames


“Miami’s sizzling-hot Argentine grill” is what Forbes Travel Guide calls Los Fuegos, Faena Miami Beach’s signature restaurant from top chef Francis Mallmann.

At Los Fuegos, dining is an experience that transcends mere sustenance. It’s a journey through flames, rooted in Mallmann’s deep-seated passion for live-fire cooking. Los Fuegos stands as a vibrant testament to the rich heritage of Argentine cuisine, particularly the time-honored tradition of the asado, or wood-fired barbecue.

In a nod to the rising trend of vegetarianism, Mallmann recently published his plant-based cookbook, “Green Fire.” A selection of dishes inspired by his recipes can be found on the menu, including wood-fired artichokes with sesame yogurt; butternut squash drizzled with chermoula sauce and pistachio crumble; beets carpaccio cooked in embers; wild mushrooms with roasted garlic cream and egg yolk; and crispy Brussels sprouts with pecorino cheese and anchovies.

For the carnivores and pescatarians, there’s plenty to make your mouth water—namely the wood-oven empanadas bursting with flavor, succulent skirt steak, or prime rib-eye a la parrilla. An array of local fresh options cooked over an open flame include whole Mediterranean branzino with fennel and lemon, as well as snapper ceviche bathed in lime leche de tigre with sweet potato purée.

Every Sunday, Los Fuegos hosts an authentic asado where guests can share a wood-fired mixed parrillada piled high with skirt steak, prime ribeye steak, chorizo, morcilla, branzino, snapper, prawns, domino potatoes, and roasted sweet potatoes. Live music and a laid-back atmosphere make Los Fuegos the perfect way to spend a sunny afternoon with family and friends.

Where Fire and Flavor Ignite

"What makes Los Fuegos truly extraordinary is our commitment to the ancient art of cooking with fire,” explained Yassine Belkady, the restaurant’s manager. “We use no electricity whatsoever—just fire, wood ovens, and tradition” Everything has that distinctive char, those bold, nearly burnt flavors that taste almost primal. “When you dine here, you can literally smell the wood and rosemary in the air,” he added. The restaurant’s setting matches its culinary panache. By day, the veranda transforms into an airy ambience when its retractable roof opens to Miami’s brilliant skies. Guests enjoy lunch while overlooking the property’s stunning pool, creating what Belkady called “a completely different experience than any other hotel or restaurant in Miami.” 

Beneath the Tree of Life

Mornings here unfold slowly while guests sip on fresh-pressed juices—like the South Beach, a tropical elixir of coconut water, local citrus, mango, and strawberry, or a vitamin-rich Green Juice packed with spinach, kale, ginger, cucumber, celery and green apple. “The tranquility makes it really special,” noted Joshua Rodriguez, Director of Nightlife. “It’s a place where guests can grab a coffee, a light bite and relax or catch up on some emails.” A menu of delicious appetizers is great for snacking throughout the day, including crispy artichokes with sesame yogurt and sourdough breadcrumbs; prime rib empanadas with llajua sauce; and a vegan option of steamed veggie rice with sweet potato and broccoli. Come golden hour, the energy shifts. On weekends from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm, resident DJs set the mood as the bar transitions into a laidback sundowner haunt. The CopaCabana cocktail, a tropical indulgence of banana and apricot liqueur, coconut cream, allspice, and Bulleit Rye, is a guest favorite. “People order it because it’s served in a Faena-branded coconut, but it’s the taste that makes them request another one,” said Rodriguez.
