An immersive dining and cultural experience marks Lunar New Year with traditional performances and a multi-cuisine menu set within one of Miami Beach’s most distinctive hotel spaces.
This Lunar New Year celebration takes place Monday, February 16 at Jaya at The Setai on Miami Beach, with reservations beginning at 6 p.m. The evening welcomes the Year of the Horse through live dragon and lion dances accompanied by traditional Guangdong drumming. Guests can explore a curated dining experience that highlights South Asian specialties from Jaya alongside contemporary Japanese dishes from Japón, paired with signature cocktails developed by Chef Vijay Veena.
Jaya, whose name means “victory” in Sanskrit, is known for showcasing regional South Asian cuisines through tandoor cooking, wok-based preparations and house specialties such as Peking duck, complemented by nightly live entertainment. The event unfolds within The Setai, an Asian Art Deco landmark recognized for its refined design, historic architectural elements and tranquil atmosphere, offering a setting that aligns closely with the evening’s cultural focus.
