Danny DeVito's new Italian restaurant (Pic)
Actor Danny DeVito and New York restaurateur David Manero are prepairing to open DeVito's South Beach, Old World Italy on Ocean Drive in the space formerly know as Joia.
Having a celebrity restaurant South of Fifth Street will defintly put the squeeze on nearby restaurants like Prime 112, Nemo, China Grill and Smith and Wollensky. Without a doubt, someone will get bumped from the Top 20 Restaurants list.
Wikipedia says Danny DeVito is a vegetarian. I wonder if this will have any effect on the menu? I hope so. I can't think of any restaurants in Miami that even consider, let alone cater to vegetarians.
Mr. DeVito's new restaurant is scheduled to open in February of 2007.
