The most-lucrative restaurant in America.
MILA is Riviera Dining Group's flagship, the rooftop clubstaurant on Meridian Avenue that by 2025 was grossing more than any other independent restaurant in the country. Prime-time demand is relentless, the room turns on a tight ninety-minute clock, and the floor openly favors the names it recognizes. A reservation made weeks out can still lose its table when a familiar face walks in, because the host stand here runs on standing, not on a timestamp.
It is not a reservation system. It is a guest list. We hold real relationships with the room, we watch the cancellations the public never sees, and we know which windows actually open at the prime hours everyone else is fighting over. We put your name where the floor recognizes it, so the seat holds when you arrive.

How do I get a reservation at Mila?
Name Mila and the night you want. We book it on your account the instant a table opens or a cancellation appears, and you only pay if we actually get it.
Why is Mila so hard to book?
Mila is one of the most in-demand tables in South Beach. Prime-time seats are claimed within seconds of release, and many never reach the public at all, so refreshing on your own rarely works.
When do Mila reservations open up?
Mila releases tables on a set schedule, and seats also reappear when other guests cancel. We watch both around the clock and move the instant one opens, so you never have to refresh at midnight.
How much does it cost to book Mila through The Elusive List?
One flat fee, charged only when we confirm your table. No table, no charge. Sign in to see the exact fee for Mila.
