R House drops a lineup of indulgent, over-the-top burgers inspired by the spirit of its drag icons.

November 12, 2025

R House Wynwood has never played it safe. The drag brunch is legendary. The performances are electric. The energy is pure Wynwood magic. And now the restaurant is stepping into an entirely new spotlight with a lineup of over the top burgers that drop on November 21. This menu is loud, glamorous, a little sinful, and completely obsessed with flavor, which means it fits right in with the queens who inspired it.

Every burger on the lineup comes straight from Executive Chef and Owner Rocco Carulli. He took the confidence and personality of R House’s performers and turned it into food that refuses to blend in. These burgers are big. They are dramatic. And they honestly taste like Miami feels at midnight.

The new menu is available during brunch, dinner, and late-night service, and it marks the start of a whole new era for R House. Think boozy milkshakes, rotating burger specials, and plenty of surprises that will keep people coming back hungry.

The Stars of the Show

R Burger
Mojo pork, Swiss, chipotle barbecue sauce, caramelized onions, crispy fritas, and an eight ounce patty that means business.
BBL
A bacon wrapped beef patty filled with molten cheese and crowned with pink champagne onions, cowboy candied jalapeños, a splash of secret sauce and a pop of edible gold. Miami would be proud.
Big Papi
Beef meets chorizo and things get wild. Havarti cheese, stuffed poblano, grilled avocado, fried plantains, pico, and spicy aioli. Go double or triple if you feel unstoppable.
Greek Goddess
A true tribute to Athena Dion. A lamb and beef kofta patty with feta, goat cheese, grilled onions, olive tapenade, tzatziki and sun dried tomato aioli. There is also a vegan falafel version if thats the way you like it.
Italian Stallion
A meatball patty with crispy prosciutto, burrata, provolone, basil pesto, and a parmesan crisp. Imagine your loudest Italian relative cheering you on with every bite.
Walk That Duck
Beef, duck confit, fig jam, blue cheese, caramelized shallots and herb aioli. Offered as a single, double or triple for anyone who wants to live dangerously.
Macho Burger
Spicy aioli, smoky four cheese mac, sharp cheddar, thick cut bacon and crispy shallots. Comfort food that refuses to be humble.
Skinny Legend
Spicy grilled chicken, pink pickled onions, arugula, avocado lime cream and hot honey. Light enough to feel angelic but still packed with attitude.
Basic B
A classic that knows what it is. Beef, American cheese, red onions, pickles and R House secret sauce on a brioche bun. Available in any size your heart desires.

Ocean Drive landmark Palace Bar celebrates Women’s Month, Miami Music Week, and its 38th year with international DJs, rooftop parties, and a full month of nightlife programming.

March 4, 2026

If there’s one place on Ocean Drive that consistently knows how to throw a party, it’s Palace Bar Miami Beach.

The iconic LGBTQ+ venue at 1052 Ocean Drive is stepping into March with a packed calendar of nightlife events, international DJs, rooftop takeovers, and new programming celebrating Women’s Month and Miami Music Week 2026.

For nearly four decades, Palace has been one of the most recognizable venues in Miami Beach nightlife. Known for its legendary drag brunches, high-energy performances, and rooftop events overlooking Ocean Drive, the venue continues to evolve while staying rooted in the community that helped make it a South Beach institution.

This month, the programming stretches beyond the building itself.

A rooftop launch and beachside hospitality

March begins with Palace stepping directly onto the sand.

On Sunday, March 1, the venue hosted VIP cabanas at the Winter Party Beach Party on 10th Street Beach, bringing premium cocktail and bottle service hospitality directly to the shoreline.

Later that same day, Palace launched AURÉA: Where Day Turns Legendary, a new weekly luxury rooftop Sunday series designed around golden-hour energy and sunset views over Ocean Drive.

The opening event featured DJ Juka from Mexico alongside opening DJ JRNY, setting the tone for what Palace hopes will become a signature weekly rooftop experience.

A new seasonal cocktail collection

A few days later, on Wednesday, March 4, the venue unveiled its Spring and Summer Cocktail Collection.

The seasonal menu introduces fresh flavor profiles, vibrant presentation, and a signature drink designed to define the months ahead. The launch arrives just as Miami’s event season begins heating up ahead of Miami Music Week and the busy spring calendar across South Beach.

Sunset Sapphire launches March 21

The celebrations continue on Saturday, March 21 with the debut of Sunset Sapphire, a new monthly nightlife experience launching during Women’s Month.

Hosted by queer influencer couple Zashia Santiago and Tay Tate, the event blends music, cocktails, movement, and immersive visual moments into a vibrant night celebrating women and their communities.

Set in the heart of the Ocean Drive nightlife district, Sunset Sapphire aims to become one of Miami Beach’s newest signature nightlife gatherings.

Palace becomes a Miami Music Week hub

Later in the month, Miami Music Week arrives and Palace Bar transforms into a multi-day destination for DJs, producers, and music lovers visiting the city from around the world.

From March 26 through March 29, the venue will host four nights of programming across both its rooftop and main space.

The weekend begins Thursday, March 26 with a label-driven showcase presented in partnership with HOTL Records. The event will feature more than fifteen DJs performing across an extended lineup.

On Friday, March 27, the energy moves to the rooftop with “We’re Never Going Home,” a takeover presented alongside Groove Cruise. More than twenty-five DJs will perform across a marathon rooftop and venue experience that runs from afternoon into the early morning hours.

One of the biggest highlights arrives Saturday, March 28 when Younan Music hosts its Miami Music Week showcase at Palace. Running from 12 PM to 4 AM, the event will feature more than fifteen DJs and a lineup of internationally recognized house and electronic artists including Carlo Lio, Juanito, Saeed Younan, Sirus Hood, Vito (UK), Eddie Lopez, Adriano Longi, and Diezel.

The weekend wraps up Sunday, March 29 with a community-focused finale presented by Palace Productions. The closing event will spotlight more than ten local LGBTQ+ DJs and highlight Palace’s continued commitment to uplifting queer artists in Miami’s nightlife scene.

A busy month for a South Beach institution

Alongside the music programming, Palace continues celebrating its 38th year as one of Miami Beach’s most iconic nightlife venues.

Whether guests arrive for rooftop DJs, seasonal cocktails, or simply to soak in the energy of Ocean Drive, the venue remains one of the city’s most recognizable destinations for nightlife and entertainment.

South Florida Insider will also be covering select Palace Bar events throughout the month, including the Sunset Sapphire launch on March 21 and the Younan Music Miami Music Week showcase on March 28.
