The skyscraper canyon that is Brickell has been a bit lax in satisfying the social needs of its office refugees. With the opening of Euro-influenced Segafredo, the professional set now have reason to stick around from day to night. The futuristic coffee house aesthetic and delicate, unpretentious Italian eats of the global brand have been transplanted to Miami's financial district. Taking multi-tasking to its stylish extreme, this outpost effortlessly melds several destinations into one: it's a restaurant, a casual cafe (or caffe, for you Italianos) and a boutique nightclub. Daytime idlers can linger over well-executed cappuccinos, flaky croissants and at lunchtime, crusty panini oozing with mozzarella and basil. The coffee bar with barstools, plush red leather couches and free internet attracts laptop toters galore.
Spazio Nero, the on-premise club whose name is Italian for black space, takes its thematic credo seriously. Think vampy black leather couches with silver buttons, black-tinted mirrors throughout, and fleur-de-lis textured black-on-black wallpaper. At 2,000 square feet, there's ample space to get your dance on as local spinning talent hold forth from the elevated DJ booth.
Because this is Miami, you know the eclectic antique furniture in the outdoor living room lounge will be packed round the clock. Better claim your couch.

This is my new favorite hangout!!! whether for a quick lunch, to relax after work (except friday's it get's crazy) or to dance in their club, this place offers it all without compromising on any of its attributes...
it is a gift from heaven for all of us brickell dwellers!!! no more nightmare drive to SoBe!
Not having to drive is always a plus in my book.
I LOVE Segafredo Brickell.... its like the new "Hott Spot"! My friends got a table at their club inside, Spazio Nero- we had a blast! I'll def be back!
What of the pricing? Is it expensive for dinner, drinks, or lunch? Is there a fee for Spazio Nero? What type of music do they usually play?
It's the typical Miami scene. They won't let you in if you're not drop dead gorgeous, barely dressed or loaded. And to top it off the bouncers have an attitude problem, they think they are Gods gift to Earth. They should lay off the power trip and take a good look in the mirror. It's an ok hangout, but let's be real, it's nothing special.
thank god for the bouncers, otherwise we'd have Martini bar #2 and we don't want that!!
Friendly staff, look good and they'll let you in! Don't come with your 5 buddies and expect to get in either, this place maintains an strict ratio of beautiful girls to good looking fellows!
