Most of what opened in downtown Coral Gables between Labor Day and mid-October runs during the day. There's frozen yogurt with yoga classes, a sushi counter and an Italian food hall whose first schedule ends at 5 p.m. on weekdays. Coming soon are a bagel shop and a tavern that will start as a lunch pop-up. The best-known departure this fall was a dinner room with a cocktail lounge and a live-music stage.
The sections below cover the businesses by address, then what they have in common. They also flag which announced openings have no date yet.
Walking the Mile by Street Number
Here is the current status of each Miracle Mile storefront that changed hands, opened or closed in recent weeks, as of Oct. 12, 2026:
- 70 Miracle Mile, Don Favio's Pizza Gourmet. The Burn Miami reported on Sept. 1 that the pizzeria appeared to be closed for good. A neighboring operator believed it had closed a few days earlier, so the exact last day isn't known.
- 100 Miracle Mile, Buccan and Imoto. Chef Clay Conley's Buccan opened this summer, and a July 17 review in Coral Gables Magazine called it newly opened. The menu is globally inspired small plates for sharing, including tuna crisp, hamachi tiradito, sweet corn agnolotti and duck confit. Its sister restaurant, Imoto, is set to open today, Monday, Oct. 12. The Burn Miami got that date from team members, and reservations open the same day. The outlet believes Imoto's entrance is around the corner on Galiano Street.
- 111 Miracle Mile, Bonsai Sushi. Open by Sept. 23, serving sushi along with Asian chicken curry, lomo saltado and pad thai.
- 239 Miracle Mile, YoYo. Opened Sept. 11 with frozen yogurt, Swedish-Miami café fare, coffee and matcha, plus yoga and Pilates classes in the same space.
- 317 Miracle Mile, Call Your Mother Deli. Coming to the former Bodega Taqueria storefront. No opening date has been announced yet.
- 374 Miracle Mile, Canelita Cheesecake. Closed by Oct. 6 after opening earlier this summer. The shop is moving to 31 NE 17th St. in Miami, and no new tenant had been named for the Gables storefront.
Two of the six addresses lost a business this fall, three gained one, and one is still in progress. Most of the gains open early and close early.
The Newcomers Are Built for Daytime
Zuccaly opened with an afternoon schedule
The biggest opening of the season isn't on the Mile itself. It's a few blocks away at The Plaza Coral Gables. Zuccaly, the 8,000-square-foot Italian food hall from Da Silva Hospitality Group, opened Thursday, Oct. 8, at 111 Palermo Ave. It has six food stations, an Italian market and a full bar. The group is led by Erasmo da Silva, who also runs Zucca. Miami New Times describes Zuccaly as a casual, Italian piazza-style place where diners share dishes from different stations and stay for an aperitivo, a looser format than Zucca's traditional fine dining.
According to The Burn Miami, the stations are:
- Portavia Gastro Market for prepared foods, pantry staples and Italian imports to take home
- The Pasta & Risotto Hall
- La Biga Pizza Hall
- The Grill & Fish Hall
- Il Giardino
- Dolci & Gelato
The soft-opening hours are where the daytime pattern shows most clearly. Miami New Times reported a limited schedule of 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Thursday and Friday and 1 to 8 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, closed Monday and Tuesday. The website lists noon to 11 p.m. daily, but the outlet said to follow the temporary schedule until Zuccaly announces a change. Anyone planning a weeknight dinner there this month should check first.
The rest of the new arrivals run on breakfast, lunch and workouts
YoYo combines a café, frozen yogurt and yoga classes in one storefront. A few miles south, MELI Frozen Yogurt had opened a new Coral Gables store at 6601 South Red Road by Sept. 2. Back at The Plaza, the PVOLVE fitness studio at 3011 Ponce de Leon Blvd. was taking presale signups in September and is expected to open before Jan. 1.
The arrival with the most buzz is Call Your Mother. The Washington, D.C., bagel shop started in 2018 and now has more than 30 locations operating or planned around the country, according to the Coral Gables Gazette. The Gables shop will be its first in South Florida. Bagels are baked on site, and the expected menu includes the Jetski, with brisket, pastrami, sofrito, cheese and jalapeño on a cheddar bagel, and the Suncity, with eggs, cheese and spicy honey on an everything bagel.
Barley Tavern is starting with lunch too. Chef Jorgie Ramos told The Burn Miami that it will begin as a lunchtime pop-up at Cebada Rooftop, 124 Giralda Ave., before moving to a permanent Gables location that hasn't been announced.
Dinner Took the Notable Departure
Sra. Martinez at 2325 Galiano St. served its final dinner on Saturday, Sept. 26, Miami New Times reported. The owners said they would keep the space and were already working on what comes next, but they didn't say what will go there. The restaurant had returned on Dec. 13, 2024, after 12 years away. It took over the former Open Stage Club space, which had a dining room, a covered patio, a cocktail lounge and a stage for live music. That mix of late dinner, drinks and live music hasn't appeared in any of the openings announced since.
The biggest sit-down arrival is at 100 Miracle Mile. Buccan serves shared plates, and Imoto's menu, according to its website as quoted by The Burn Miami, features sushi and sashimi, dumplings, tempura and teppanyaki. If the outlet is right that Imoto's entrance is on Galiano Street, both of Chef Conley's restaurants will sit a short walk from the empty Sra. Martinez space. Both concepts started in West Palm Beach before coming to the Gables.
What's Still Only Announced
Several of the season's most-discussed names are still waiting on a date, or on confirmation that a reported date held. Here's the latest timing for each, with the date of the update:
| Business | Address | Latest stated timing | As of |
|---|---|---|---|
| Imoto | 100 Miracle Mile | Monday, Oct. 12, not yet confirmed | Oct. 6 report |
| Call Your Mother Deli | 317 Miracle Mile | "Late-year"; an earlier report said early December | Aug. 31 report |
| Havana Harry's | 4612 S. Le Jeune Road | Fall 2026, no date | Sept. 14 report |
| Barley Tavern pop-up | Cebada Rooftop, 124 Giralda Ave. | No start date announced | Oct. 7 report |
| Lira House | 223 Valencia Ave. | No timetable | Oct. 6 report |
| PVOLVE | 3011 Ponce de Leon Blvd. | Before year-end | Sept. 3 report |
Two of these need a closer look. Call Your Mother has two reported targets. Miami New Times cited the owners' early-December goal on Aug. 24, and a week later the Gazette described the timing only as late-year. Havana Harry's has been closed for more than a year, according to the Coral Gables Gazette. Its Oct. 2 update on its own site says only that it is preparing to welcome guests back. The homepage still shows "We're open every day!" hours next to a "Coming back Fall 2026" banner, so those posted hours aren't a sign that it has reopened.
Lira House will take the former Maroosh space on Valencia Avenue. The Burn Miami's Oct. 6 report gave no timeline.
The October Calendar Leans Early Too
The city's own Halloween schedule, published Sept. 28, also runs mostly during the day:
- Pumpkin Patch at Ponce Circle Park, 2810 Ponce de Leon Blvd., Saturday, Oct. 17, 2 to 6 p.m.
- Kiddo-Ween Festival, the Coral Gables Museum's first, at 285 Aragon Ave., Saturday, Oct. 24, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
- Trick-or-Treat on the Mile at participating Miracle Mile businesses, Saturday, Oct. 31, 3 to 6 p.m.
- Day of the Dead celebration at Ponce Circle Park, Saturday, Oct. 31, 4 to 9 p.m.
The City of Coral Gables announcement has details for each event. Trick-or-Treat on the Mile will be the first Halloween on the street for this fall's newcomers, including YoYo at 239 and Bonsai Sushi at 111.
