Michelin Star chef Jeremy Ford is teaming up with Grove Bay Hospitality Group to open Beauty and the Butcher this fall in Coral Gables. Ford opened the Michelin Star & Miami Beach located restaurant Stubborn Seed with the same partners in 2017 and Ford was also the winner of "Top Chef" Season 13.

Beauty and the Butcher will take over the former Public Square space on Red Road, which opened in 2020 but is now closed.

“I want to channel that same inviting, laid-back atmosphere you can find at Stubborn Seed,” says Ford. “I like that guests can dress up or down at my restaurants without feeling out of place.” “I love the idea of taking upscale dining to the suburbs,” he says. “Plus, the Gables is blowing up with our local chef talent and big-name chefs like Thomas Keller are opening up shop there. I think it shows great food can be found in many different parts of Miami.”
