"Los Félix is located in Miami's Coconut Grove neighborhood, where its modern menu, natural wine list, and rotating vinyl music program have been embraced by visitors and locals alike since 2021. The restaurant was the brainchild of Grassfed Culture Hospitality, a collective led by restaurateurs Josh Hackler, Pili Restrepo, and executive chef Sebastian Vargas. The entire ethos of Los Felix revolves around honoring the ancestral tradition of Milpa farming, a traditional intercropping system that allows the land to regenerate naturally."
"The rotating menu always shines a spotlight on fresh, native ingredients like squash, chiles, and cacao, and heirloom corn, which is ground using the kitchen's in-house molino, or corn mill. All of this, as well as a focus on biodiversity and maintaining strong relationships with local farmers, has earned Los Félix a Michelin Green Star, marking its status as an industry leader in sustainability. The restaurant has also held a general Michelin Star since 2022."
"In keeping with the farm-to-table ethos, Los Felix has deep connections with a number of fishermen in Miami-Dade county. The menu features only what is freshly available, rotating between stocks of black grouper, yellowtail snapper, and more. All of the meat is grass-fed and seed oils are a no-go, with beef tallow being the choice for frying instead. There are also innovative vegetarian options available, like black garlic tetélas and corn dumplings with pistachio mole."
