Florida's first db Bistro Moderne, a French-American restaurant by celebrity chef Daniel Boulud, will open later this year at the new JW Marriott Marquis Miami. The restaurant, whose interiors were designed by Toronto-based Yabu Pushelberg, will debut this fall and feature a dining area with striking contemporary accents and soaring 18-foot ceilings, as well as a stylish bar and lounge, a street-level terrace and two private dining rooms accommodating up to 60 guests.

The restaurant will be divided into three distinct main dining areas. At the center will be a room with sleek white washed oak floors and wall paneling, steel grey canvas and distressed leather upholstery and a geometric patterned ceiling. To the right will be the persimmon room with curved banquettes upholstered in deep mustard colored canvas and leather. To the left will be a smaller, more intimate room with a single central sandstone topped harvest table and walls lined with tinted mirrored trays.

The lounge area's bar will be faced in bronze metal and mirror and feature an over-sized tufted chaise lounge as a focal point. A wine tower will be located adjacent to the restaurant's entrance, which will include an intimate dining space lined with a patchwork of glass tiles in shades of gray and bronze.

The restaurant will be housed in a 41-floor JW Marriott Marquis complex that's slated to open this summer.
