Trina Restaurant and Lounge
The Atlantic, 601 N. Fort Lauderdale Beach Blvd., Fort Lauderdale, 954/567-8070, www.theatlantichotelfortlauderdale.com

Located on the ground level of The Atlantic hotel, Trina offers an amazing restaurant and an even better bar. Named after Trinakria, the three-legged Medusa on the flag of Sicily, this contemporary lounge offers an intimate setting and a clever drink menu, which includes libations such as the ruby red, comprising grapefruit muddled with sugarcane syrup, Patrón tequila and Citrónge rimmed with Red Sea salt; and the Clark Bar, a mix of Godiva dark liqueur, brandy, Frangelico and cream. The hotel offers valet parking, so you don't have to stress about finding a spot along the strip. After a few cocktails, you'll forget you're not in South Beach.
