Two new restaurants have opened at Hallandale Beach just in time for spring and summer. Davinci Café and KC Market have opened at Oasis Hallandale, adding to the ten-acre complex that's trying to become a downtown for the beach area.

Davinci Café serves a mix of European and Asian food along Hallandale Beach Boulevard. The place does triple duty as a breakfast joint, lunch spot, and dinner restaurant that turns into a cocktail bar with DJs some nights. Plus, dogs are welcome throughout the day.

What's Davinci? Asian Fusion from Breakfast Through Dinner

For breakfast, they serve shakshuka made with tomatoes, peppers, and garlic confit. The "Elegance" dish combines grilled asparagus, salmon, and a six-minute egg topped with miso hollandaise and red caviar. Lunch options range from mushroom soup with coconut milk to tom yum to a wagyu beef burger with gruyere cheese and truffle mushroom sauce. For heartier appetites, they offer flap steak with chimichurri and creamy fettuccine pasta with salmon and shrimp. The Ivan's Skillet features creamy chicken thighs with mushrooms, onion, and parmesan with potato confit.

Sweet options include the "Crownie," a brownie and croissant cake with coco sorbet; "Katmer," fried baklava with Turkish goat ice cream; and the namesake "Davinci," French toast with berries, Biscoff ganache, and miso caramel. After 6 p.m. Thursday through Sunday, the cocktail menu kicks in with classics like Negroni and Manhattan, plus house creations including the "Rum Diary" with pineapple rum and coconut ice, "Cocorita" made with variations of coconut and tequila, and the "Clear Piña Colada" featuring coconut oil-washed rum and pineapple cordial.

Kosher Market Makes Third Stop in South Florida

Next door, KC Market has set up its third location in 10,000 square feet of space. The kosher grocery store, which started back in 2009 in Emerald Hills, sells kosher food, runs a catering operation, also features a butcher counter, and bakes kosher pastries and breads on-site. Various vendors sell prepared kosher foods inside.

KC Market's owners launched the business when they noticed a gap in the area's kosher grocery and catering scene. Since then, they've expanded to include a full catering service with a fleet of refrigerated delivery vehicles that service events across Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties.

Other businesses at Oasis Hallandale include Oasis Fit, Dr. Bronovan ENT, and Oasis Dental. An Italian restaurant and design showroom will also open later this year, according to the developers.
