Kick-Off Party for Simply Italian at Fratelli Lyon

Get ready to be transported to Italy, as we host a kick-off party for Simply Italian at Fratelli Lyon. Located in the Design District, Fratelli Lyon comes to us from Ken Lyon and offers clean and simple Italian cuisine in a stylish atmosphere. In addition to offering authentic regional Italian cuisine, we like Fratelli Lyon even more because they actively participate in the slow food movement, emphasize local food traditions and source artisanal and environmentally sound products.

What: Kick-off party for Simply Italian

Where: Fratelli Lyon, 4141 NE 2nd Ave, Miami

When: Tuesday, November 17

Time: 6:00 – 8:00 pm

Simply Italian is a festival in Miami from November 20-29 celebrating the food and wine of Italy, brought to you by the same people behind VinItaly.  Participating restaurants will offer a special menu during this week. Guests who dine at these restaurants will be able to enjoy a week of special offers, degustation of Italian food & wine and a chance to win an all-inclusive trip to Italy.

Please bring cash to pay for your additional drinks. There is not an ATM nearby and credit cards will only be accepted inside the restaurant (meaning a longer wait time). Our party will be set up outside the main restaurant.
