Make Me Blush

The refreshing ‘Head Over Heels’ cocktail is a mix of E11EVEN Vodka, Sparkling Rosé, Raspberry, Lemongrass & Citrus served in a glass stiletto and designed to be shared, while the French Kiss is made with Sipsmith London Dry Gin, Champagne, Lemon, Maraschino Cherry. 

Head over Heels

Giselle is sophisticated yet eclectic, seductively captivating, edgy, and outright extravagant on every level, from her presentation to the aura of mystery she evokes in each guest that walks through her doors.

The team tapped international award-winning South Africa-based interior architect Tristan Du Plessis to completely transform the space with high-style design, modern elegance, and custom-made decor elements from all around the world, including Italy, Netherlands, Paris, London, Greece, New York, South Africa, and Miami. 

Upon arrival, guests will take a private elevator up to the main entrance of the rooftop restaurant, where they will be invited to step into the sultry fantasy world of Giselle via a luminous mosaic-tiled tunnel that whimsically leads into Giselle’s foyer.

A custom-built retractable roof spans the entirety of the indoor-outdoor restaurant, allowing for a truly dynamic dining experience.

The dazzling, panoramic setting was designed with an unparalleled level of artistry that breathes life into each of the exceptionally detailed areas that make up Giselle Miami. 

Giselle’s 14-seat marble-adorned Bar presents an idyllic space for guests to sip and savor her signature libations.

Offering guests an added multimedia art experience, an animated digital art display cases the wall behind the Bar and showcases the work of Miami-based filmmaker and producer Frank Kelly.

Kelly was tapped to produce a custom short film series for the space that reveals snippets of Giselle’s persona with a seductive cinematic eye. 

An intimate Lounge/Terrace area extends from the Bar, offering comfortable lounge seating and elegant black marble embellished dining tables set against Miami’s evening skyline.

Separating this space from the central dining area within the venue, a double-sided mirrored sign spells out, in neon fluorescence, the spoken words of Giselle: “I’ll be here, if by chance, you’ll be here too.” 

Giselle’s Central Dining area houses a thoughtful curation of table settings to accommodate varied restaurant-goers party sizes – from cozy tables for two all the way up to larger seatings for ten.

A partially enclosed space, bordered by lush greenery and marble scaffolding, boasts three large-party custom-built round tables.

Refined with sleek wood paneling and delicately hand-carved trimmings, each table setting within this area can comfortably seat up to 10 guests. 

The must-see crown jewel within Giselle’s artfully devised layout leads us to the concept’s utterly awe-striking Dream Room.

This high-design main dining room space is engulfed with impossibly oversized French lace and elaborate baroque detailing, whereas the walls and ceilings are ornamented in 3D wood-carved architectural detailings.

At the heart of the Dream Room, an open interactive kitchen offers an exclusive experiential element for guests.

Giselle’s spectacular settings each offer their own unique personality and idyllic backdrops for bespoke private dining experiences and events. 

Giselle is located at 15 NE 11 St., Miami, FL 33132. Opening hours of operation are Wednesday – Sunday, from 6:00pm until late.
