Todd English, a celebrity chef and four-time James Beard Award winner, will collaborate with Bentley Residences to create the menu and atmosphere for the development’s resident-only restaurant.

The exclusive restaurant will be open to residents for breakfast, lunch, and dinner and will offer private catering as well as poolside dining. It is situated on the lobby level and offers views of the pool and ocean. For a few resident-only events and demonstrations, chef Todd English will personally show up at the exclusive restaurant.

This exclusive gastronomic experience, with furnishings designed by Bentley Motors, will be one-of-a-kind and available only to the residents and their invited guests. There is a connection and link to the famed automobile brand thanks to the use of numerous fabrics and materials that were inspired by high-end luxury Bentley cars.

For instance, Bentley’s distinctive diamond patterning, which is present on the building’s external architecture as well, is referenced in the high-gloss flooring. For an upscale melancholy vibe, the private restaurant’s interiors combine a dark color scheme with strong details. The room’s forest green backlit banquettes give it a sense of seclusion, and the dramatic louvers that cover the walls give it a dramatic feel. For a more laid-back and informal dining experience, there is also plenty of bar seating available.

Todd English is known for being a restauranteur, author, and television personality, as well as his current establishments, Olives, Figs, and Pappas Taverna in New York City. He is also well-known for his appearances on the Food Network, PBS, and well-liked shows like Top Chef and Iron Chef. The private restaurant by Todd English, which is slated to provide residents a relaxed yet upscale atmosphere, will be the chef’s first private condominium idea.

A selected cuisine will also be offered for in-residence dining, and the menus will change seasonally. After being voted “National Rising Star Chef” by the Maryann Beard Foundation in 1991, English initially became well-known internationally for his take on rustic Mediterranean food. The dining experience will be enhanced by his extraordinary expertise and charm, which will offer a personalized touch with every meal.

According to English, “Every aspect of Bentley Residences has been so thoughtfully designed to perfection and I’m incredibly honored for this opportunity to partner with Gil Dezer and further elevate the luxurious lifestyle through unique culinary creations for residents. We’re excited to provide a curated experience with rotating seasonal menus that will make dining at Bentley Residences a joy for residents and their guests.”

The first private restaurant from Chef Todd English will benefit from his decades of expertise developing some of the most well-known restaurants in the world. English is well known for his cooking, but he has also been on a variety of television programs, including Iron Chef, Top Chef, The Today Show, and Food Trip with Todd English on The Food Network. He has additionally worked as the Executive Celebrity Chef for a number of high-profile occasions, such as the Super Bowl, Fashion Week, Tony Awards, and Sundance Film Festival.

$40 Million Construction Loan Secured for Bentley Residences

Bentley Residences Sunny Isles Beach

A $40 million construction loan was secured by Dezer Development’s proposed Bentley Residences condominium development in Sunny Isles Beach.

Records show that City National Bank of Florida provided the mortgage. The financing is for pre-development expenses related to the planned 216-unit luxury tower at 18401 Collins Avenue.

The Sunny Isles Beach-based development company, run by Gil Dezer, just unveiled a $10 million sales center with a scale model of a 6,000-square-foot condo at Bentley Residences. For apartments facing the Intracoastal Waterway, prices vary from $5 million to almost $6 million. Units with a view of the ocean start at $7.2 million. The penthouses will cost between $57 million and $75 million.

Bentley Motors and Dezer collaborated to create their first residential building ever constructed. According to a press release, the 61-story Bentley Residences will have a “Dezervator” auto elevator in the middle of the structure. Each luxury unit will include a three or four-car garage with electric vehicle charging outlets.

According to records, a Dezer affiliate paid $6.8 million in 1996 for the 3.6-acre property, which includes a five-story hotel bearing the Wyndham name. The 180-key building’s demolition is anticipated to begin in the first quarter of 2019, with a 2026 completion date for the project as the goal.

Dezer is transforming the North Miami Beach Intracoastal Mall into the $1.5 billion mixed-use Uptown Harbour project. The expansive development, which spans over 30 acres and includes 2,000 residential units, 575,000 square feet of retail and office space, 250 hotel rooms, a port, and a central park, was given initial approval by the North Miami Beach City Commission in 2020.

Bentley Residences will be Dezer’s second opulent residence with a modern vehicle lift. The first was the Porsche Design Tower, a 2016 completion of a 60-story luxury brand high-rise in Sunny Isles Beach.

Bentley Residences Miami Sales Center

First Look: Bentley Residences Scale Model and Sales Center Revealed

Bentley Residences Miami Scale Model

Today our team got the privilege of being the first to tour the new Bentley Residences Miami Sales Center and the one word that keeps playing through our heads is stunning. This sales center is so unique and every detail is so intricate that we cannot even begin to describe what we saw and heard…but I am going to try.

For starters, the exterior of the sales center is insane (in a good way). When you approach the building, you immediately notice the rust-colored Bentley statue. The outside of the building appears to be all glass reflecting the statue creating a diamond-like effect. The massive Bentley logo is located right outside the entrance.

Once you enter the gallery of the building, you immediately notice the inlaid lighting on the granite floors wrapping around but upward towards the ceiling creating a unique lighting experience. The lounge features comfortable seating and beautiful hardwood floors, and just around the corner is a sky blue Bentley.

During our tour, the scale model arrived at the sales center and we got to see the assembly of the model.

A model residence is just after the scale model. Once you enter, you immediately notice the 4 car garage that each residence will offer. After you exit your private elevator to your foyer, an expansive window overlooks your private pool. The open floor plan showcases a custom kitchen, attractive sitting area, and automatically retracting balcony doors. The innovative doors lead to an expansive terrace with a summer kitchen and access to your private pool.

Bentley Residences in Sunny Isles Beach

Following the completion of the $10 million oceanfront sales center, Dezer Development plans to begin sales of Bentley Residences this year. The sales center and site located in Sunny Isles Beach features a full model unit for potential buyers.

Bentley Residences will be located at 18401 Collins Avenue and will be considered the world’s first Bentley-branded residential building. According to the Developer, once sales launch, they plan for a $1.2 billion sellout.

Seeking to capitalize on the region’s high demand for residential real estate, developers have been hurrying to begin sales of new condo buildings around South Florida. This was one of the driving factors to get the sales launched for Bentley Residences

Dezer plans to open the sales center in two phases, one at the end of January 2022 and the second phase in March 2022. The 12,000-square-foot sales center, which will be built on the site of the former Armani/Casa Residences sales gallery, at 18325 Collins Avenue, will contain a 6,000-square-foot model of a Bentley unit, a broker’s lounge, and a theater for presentations.

According to a press release, a life-sized Bentley sculpture will be displayed outside of the sales gallery before being relocated to the Bentley Residences site after completion of the tower.

The project itself will rise 60 stories tall at 749 feet. The tower will feature 216 luxury condos with in-unit garages and some units showcasing large pools on the balconies. Pricing for units will range from $3.9 million to $6 million for water-facing units. Ocean-facing units will range from $5.5 million to $7.5 million while penthouses will be in the $20 million range.

Units on the east side will have four-car garages, while those on the west side will have three-car garages. With its patterned glass, the Sunny Isles structure will be “unmistakably Bentley,” according to Dezer.

Designed by Sieger Suarez Architects, the 3.6-acre property will feature a gym, pool, spa, theater, restaurant, lounge, bar, cabanas, and gardens.

Construction is set to begin in summer 2022 with completion in 2026.
