Sra. Martinez channels Miami's vibrant spirit through a lens of Spanish tradition. This Coral Gables restaurant signals the return of a beloved concept, now reimagined with a broader culinary perspective that incorporates flavors from France and the Mediterranean. High-caliber dining shares the spotlight with an energetic bar scene and live music, inviting guests to settle in for the evening. Housed in a former music club, the space retains a small stage for performers, which contributes to an atmosphere that feels both welcoming and polished.\nA large wood-burning oven is central to the food preparation, imparting a distinct smokiness to many of the dishes. The cooking style emphasizes shared plates, a format that allows for a wide-ranging exploration of the carte. The culinary team has become known for its inventive croquetas, with variations like carbonara with cured egg yolk and a mariscos version with bomba rice and saffron aioli. Another dish that has garnered attention is the oxtail paella, enriched with bone marrow that is scraped into the saffron-infused rice tableside.\nBeyond the signature items, the selection showcases a commitment to seasonal ingredients and creative pairings. Starters might include chicken liver pâté with warm beignets or crispy squash blossoms filled with ricotta and halloumi. The list of main courses, or fuertes, can feature anything from a whole fire-roasted fish with chermoula to a New York strip aged and cut in-house. With a spacious bar and lounge area reserved for walk-ins, the cocktail program is a significant draw, making Sra. Martinez an inviting neighborhood destination.
