Created under the leadership of Executive Chef Vinh Nguyen, AIR blends classical French culinary structure with Asian influence. Each dish reflects control, balance, and focus on technique. The menu follows a nine course tasting format that evolves throughout the year, allowing seasonal ingredients to guide every progression. This approach ensures repeat guests encounter a fresh experience while maintaining a consistent culinary identity.
The dining room draws inspiration from the interior of a luxury yacht. Guests enter a space shaped by refined nautical detailing, custom craftsmanship, and panoramic riverfront views. The environment mirrors the feeling of boarding a private vessel, where movement, light, and texture create a calm yet polished setting that supports the fine dining journey.

Chef Vinh Nguyen’s background anchors the kitchen in French discipline while allowing Asian flavor profiles to shape depth and contrast. Each plate arrives with intention, built through measured execution rather than excess. The tasting menu flows as a complete experience rather than a collection of individual courses, reinforcing AIR’s focus on cohesion and rhythm.

The beverage program plays an equal role in the experience. Guests choose from a curated wine list or a tiered wine pairing option designed for different levels of wine knowledge. From emerging labels to cellar worthy selections, the program supports both relaxed dining and collector level interest. A refined cocktail offering stands alongside the wine program, with drinks developed through the same technical structure as the kitchen. Each cocktail follows a composed formula built on balance, restraint, and clarity of flavor.

Service defines a core element of AIR by Seaspice. Hospitality follows polished standards aligned with Forbes level dining. Seating remains intentionally limited to protect pacing and privacy. The service team operates with focus on timing, discretion, and anticipation, allowing each course to arrive naturally within the flow of the evening. Attention to detail remains consistent from arrival through final service.
AIR introduces a new fine dining benchmark in Miami by uniting cuisine, beverage, design, and hospitality into one focused concept. The restaurant speaks to diners who value structure, calm luxury, and thoughtful execution. With riverfront views, a seasonal tasting menu, and a service philosophy rooted in precision, AIR by Seaspice establishes a destination built for serious lovers of fine dining and guests who seek elevated experiences within the Miami culinary scene.
