Bentley Residences Miami, the first Bentley-branded residential tower in the world and developed by Dezer Development, has announced the name of its exclusive resident-only restaurant: "Proper English by Todd English," led by four-time James Beard Award-winning celebrity chef Todd English. English will curate the menu and the overall experience for the project's private restaurant, set to debut in early 2028.

Chef Todd English is a highly recognized restaurateur, author, and television personality best known for his appearances on Food Network and popular shows like Top Chef and Iron Chef. His current restaurants include Olives, Figs, and The Pepper Club, his Vegas outpost within The English Hotel. Additionally, English opened two international culinary destinations in 2024: Jade by Todd English in Bali and Todd English Pub & Market in Abu Dhabi.

What the Restaurant Offers

"Proper English by Chef Todd English will provide our residents with casual dining in a sophisticated environment and unique experiences created by a world-class chef," said Gil Dezer, President of Dezer Development. "Bentley Residences will deliver a coveted level of exclusivity and privacy while incorporating luxuries ordinarily found in a five-star resort, like this above and beyond culinary concept."

Located on the lobby level with views of the resort-style pool and ocean, the private restaurant will be open to residents for breakfast, lunch, and dinner and available for private resident catering and poolside dining. Chef Todd English will often make personal appearances at the private restaurant and host resident-only chef demonstrations. The menus will rotate seasonally, and a diverse menu will also be available for in-residence dining.

Known for his interpretation of rustic Mediterranean cuisine, English first rose to international fame after being named "National Rising Star Chef" in 1991 by the James Beard Foundation. His remarkable talent and hands-on personality set the stage for a unique dining experience and ensure a personalized touch during every meal.

Chef English's Vision

"We're thrilled to begin working the planning for the restaurant and resident dining experiences," said Todd English. "It's a true pleasure to work with the Dezer Development team with our plan to elevate the luxurious lifestyle through unique culinary creations for the residents. We're excited to provide a curated experience with rotating seasonal menus that will make dining at Bentley Residences Miami a joy for residents and their guests."

Bentley-Designed Interiors

Boasting interiors designed by Bentley, this private culinary experience will be one-of-a-kind, only to be enjoyed by the residents and their welcomed guests. Many of the fabrics and materials incorporated into the design of the dining spaces were inspired by Bentley's design DNA, creating a connection to the brand's prestigious vehicles.

For example, the high-gloss flooring is a nod to Bentley's signature diamond patterning, which is also featured on the exterior architecture of the building. The interiors of the private restaurant combine a dark color palette and bold finishes for an upscale moody aesthetic. Forest green backlit banquettes create a sense of privacy within the room, and dramatic louvers cladding the walls give the space an air of drama. Ample bar seating is also available for a more relaxed and casual dining experience.

English's First Private Restaurant

As Chef Todd English's first private restaurant, the offering will benefit from his decades of experience launching some of the world's most successful concepts. Not only does he have high recognition for his food, English has also been seen on numerous television shows such as The Food Network's Opening Soon, Iron Chef, Top Chef, Today Show, and Food Trip with Todd English. Additionally, he has served as Executive Celebrity Chef for star-studded events including Super Bowl, Culinary Kick-off Grand Prix during Formula 1 Las Vegas, Fashion Week, Tony Awards, and Sundance Film Festival.
