CocoWalk's Newest Restaurant Does Everything Well
Cheesecake Who?
It was, indeed, a sad day for Coconut Grove when we lost our beloved Cheesecake Factory on the second floor of CocoWalk. Like, last night at The Tavern-level sad. And while Planta Queen was a nice replacement, there was still a serious void in the high-quality, a-little-something-for-everyone department in the Grove.
Well, I’m happy to report that void has been successfully filled with the opening of Grand Public Kitchen and Bar, where you can roll in with a group of differing tastes and still see everyone leave satisfied. It comes to Miami from some Canadian hospitality vets. And as we’ve seen with spots like Earls, Moxy’s, and Cactus Club, our ever-polite neighbors to the north are eager to please, executing several different styles exquisitely.
So is this like Cheesecake Factory 2.0?
Not quite. Its menu doesn’t require an entire freshman year English course to finish, first of all. It’s also a far more elevated…
