El Tucán

This chic live music venue from French-born duo Mathieu Massa and Michael Ridard brings dinner-and-a-show to Brickell. The vibe is a riotous throwback to the cabarets of Havana of the 1940s and ’50s, when rum-soaked joints like the Tropicana were the last word in jet-set glamour. Its twice-nightly show speaks in a thick Cuban accent, right down to the burlesque dancing girls in their feathered carnival finery. Tied together by the 11-piece house band (fronted by Grammy Award winner Marlow Rosado), the Latin-inflected spectacle is served up in a joyous and relaxed atmosphere. Not surprisingly, a conga line of celebrities has been treading a path to El Tucán, including Will Smith, who is known to have jumped onstage and performed an impromptu 40-minute set with a salsa band. ¡Azúcar!
