Seasalt and Pepper has been anointed by foodies and restaurant critics as the next big thing in Miami’s food scene, with celebrities flocking to the waterfront bistro and customers lining up to get seats.

The Miami River seafood restaurant was opened in December by designer Stephane Dupoux, who claimed to have a strong hand in discovering Manhattan’s Meatpacking District’s potential as a club district, and his partner Carlos Miranda. One of the 200-seat restaurant’s intended goals was to help revitalize the Miami River district.
