The concepts will appear at the same address and are planned to be conjoined into a dual experience for guests. As Kalifa told the Miami New Times, “The idea behind Oro and Elixir came from a collection of memories and experiences we’ve had from traveling around the world. The idea is to have a complete night-out experience in one place.”

It will be a unified space for guests to enjoy dinner and a lounge space – all under the same roof; however, the experiences will still be distinct. Guests can expect for Oro to serve fine cuts of meat and an array of seafood. Elixir will be situated above Oro as an open-air rooftop bar, where patrons can enjoy beverages from mixologists and a bottle service. Entertainment will be provided, and according to the New Times, we can expect to see aerialists and fire-dancers. 

The upscale concepts are planned to open at 818 Lincoln Rd this fall in October or November, Kalifa reports. 

Kalifa is also planning to unveil the renovated edition of his concept El Patio. The space is undergoing the work now, and it will open in about three months. Expect the concept to include more outdoor seating space and indoor bars.
