Ola Miami Beach Restaurant

The name “Ola” comes from “Hola”, the spanish word for “Hello”. And this is how The OLA Miami Restaurant at the Sanctuare in South Beach greets everyone. OLA is famous for its Latin American Cuisine, with some oriental influence (See location & Contact info at the end of this post).

The ceviches has the signature of the renowned Chef Douglas Rodriguez, internationally known to be “The Godfather of Nuevo Latino Cuisine”. More than 10 types of ceviches seasoned with citrus and a variety of different spices are waiting for you at OLA Miami.

NOT INTO SUSHI?

And if you are not into sushi or sashimi, don’t worry! The place also offers a tasty menu of steaks and meats (“churrasco” prepaired). For dessert my recommendation is the Key Lime Pie.

Churrasco style cut – Grilled asparagus, chipotle crabmeat dressing and chimichurri
