Thrillist Miami

Ecco

Now open for lunch and happy hour, 168 SE 1st St, Miami;
305.960.1900

America owes much to its pioneers: Columbus gambled that the
Earth was round to find it, the West was shaped by men who
braved its uncharted territories, and monkeys proudly
sacrificed their lives as we tried to beat the commies to
the moon. Pioneering the downtown food scene, with pizza: Ecco.

From club owners who helped pioneer Design District and
downtown nightlife, Ecco's a gourmet pizza boutique
trailblazing reasons to hang around after 5pm in
sparsely-fed downtown, with colorful industrial loft-like
interiors divided into a plush lounge up front and resto
seating in back, serving gourmet pizza from an Italian chef
who won so many local accolades, his competitors were happy
to give him the boot. Mostly organic brick-oven-fired pizzas
range from a classic Margherita, to the Four Formaggi
(Swiss, edam, mozz, and gorg), to Genovesse with pesto
chicken, to a pie with imported spicy salami, broccoli,
spinach, parmesan, and gorg called the Shock -- eaten
according to the classic semi-rhyme "two in the spinach, one
in the broc". Beyond 'za there's antipasti like fresh tuna,
avocado, and tomato, with aioli dressing over house-baked
bread; portabella stuffed with vegetable ragout and feta;
heavier fare like skirt steak with roasted potatoes; and
desserts like vanilla ice cream smothered in berries that've
been flambéed in brandy -- the booze, not the pop star,
because nobody knows where she is.

More Ecco-provided reasons to not flee downtown right after
work: a roster of live music, free wi-fi, a full bar w/
daily happy hours, and an upstairs loft for private to-dos
-- book it now, as there's sure to be a furious event-space
race.
