LIFE HOUSE SOUTH OF FIFTH – Mexican
Life House South of Fifth is a Tudor-style boutique hotel at the quiet southern tip of South Beach, and its restaurant, Pretty Swell, runs a surf-culture-inspired kitchen under chef John Iatrellis built on sustainable, flexitarian cooking. A rotating daily tiradito, poke or ceviche anchors the menu alongside four-dollar street tacos — wagyu and jackfruit versions included — plus a sun-dried tomato hummus and a watermelon-and-feta salad. The room spreads across a plant-filled front terrace, a wicker-furnished interior around a long bar, and a bougainvillea-lined back patio. Reviewers keep pointing to the ceviche and the tacos specifically as the things to order.
