Chef and Entrepreneur Michael Schwartz is a stickler on doing everything right. So when his Cypress Room opened in the Design District and it wasn’t the big success he had planned on (the figurative bar was very high), he decided to retool it into a more casual atmosphere in keeping with its name ‘tavern”, along with a lower priced menu, and brasserie type fare. We went there in the former iteration and, as you may remember, named its burger one of the top three in Miami, and decided to check out the “new” Cypress Tavern, 3620 N.E. 2nd Avenue (T.305-520-5197). His right hand and Brand Director, Jackie Sayet, calls it an “approachable, elevated dining experience” with which you’ll see I agree.
