About Gekko Miami
Gekko Miami is the creation of Bad Bunny and David Grutman — and the collaboration shows. This Japanese-Peruvian steakhouse in the heart of Brickell has become Miami's most celebrity-saturated dining destination, drawing A-list musicians, athletes, and entertainment figures on a nightly basis. The menu combines the precision of Japanese technique with the bold flavors of Peruvian cuisine — wagyu beef, exceptional omakase-style cuts, ceviche, and a cocktail program that matches the energy of the room. The interior is dramatic, the lighting is perfect, and the sound system ensures that dinner feels like an event. As the night progresses, Gekko transitions fully into party mode — bottle service, DJs, and an atmosphere that lives up to its Brickell setting. Reservations are highly sought-after and the best tables require advance planning. Golden Palm Hospitality secures Gekko reservations with full VIP arrangements for groups of any size.

Bad Bunny and David Grutman's Japanese Steakhouse in Brickell
Gekko is one of the hardest tables to get in Miami. Co-owned by global superstar Bad Bunny and hospitality titan David Grutman, this Japanese-inspired steakhouse and lounge at 8 SE 8th Street in Brickell has become one of the most talked-about dining destinations in the country since opening. The name comes from the Japanese word for moonlight, and the restaurant's jewel-toned, dimly lit interior lives up to that reference entirely. Gekko seats up to 185 guests across its main dining room and lounge areas, with a private dining room accommodating up to 16 guests and a semi-private Green Room for intimate events. The Gekko Lounge features a private bar, outdoor area, and DJ booth and can host up to 75 guests for private events. Full venue buyouts accommodate up to 200 guests. Golden Palm Hospitality has direct relationships with Gekko's management team and secures reservations for our clients when standard channels are unavailable.
What to Expect at Gekko Miami
Gekko's aesthetic is lush, luxe, and jewel-toned with custom wallpaper, dark rich palettes, hints of soft golden light, and design elements including gold dragon accents throughout the space. The result is an intimate, rare nocturnal world that makes every dinner feel like an occasion. The menu is a celebration of Japanese culinary artistry. Signature dishes include A5 Wagyu cooked tableside on hot stones with theatrical presentation, Wagyu Crispy Rice, Lobster Dumplings, premium sushi and innovative maki rolls, and an extensive selection of premium steaks. The cocktail program is bespoke and the wine list is extensive with bottle service available in the lounge. As dinner transitions into the evening, the Gekko Lounge comes alive with top-tier DJs keeping the energy going late into the night. Gekko is simultaneously one of Miami's best restaurants and one of its most compelling late-night experiences. Gekko is open seven days a week. Monday, Wednesday, and Sunday from 6pm to 10pm. Tuesday and Thursday from 6pm to 11pm. Friday and Saturday from 6pm to midnight.
