Corporate Holiday Party Venue in Sunny Isles Beach: When to Book and How It Works

Corporate Holiday Party Venue in Sunny Isles Beach: When to Book and How It Works blog hero

Corporate holiday parties in Sunny Isles Beach get booked in October and November, and the teams that wait for December are the ones choosing from what is left. If your office is picturing a waterfront dinner instead of a hotel ballroom, this guide covers the practical side of putting the evening together: when to call, what to settle first and how a group menu takes shape at Mykonos Kitchen & Bar.

Mykonos Kitchen & Bar is a waterfront Greek and Mediterranean restaurant at 400 Sunny Isles Blvd in Sunny Isles Beach, with a terrace over the water, indoor and outdoor seating and two kitchens under one roof: Greek charcoal cooking and Mediterranean classics alongside a full sushi menu. The restaurant hosts private events of every size, from a long-table team dinner to a full celebration for up to 150 guests, with the menu and decor customized for the occasion. The current menu with prices is always on our menu page, and December dates are booked through OpenTable, the contact page or by phone at (305) 497-9775.

When to Book a December Party

The honest answer is now. The first weeks of November are when the good December dates move, and by Thanksgiving the calendar is mostly spoken for. If you can be flexible, a weekday evening in the first half of December is the easiest corporate slot to arrange: the kitchen is fresh, the terrace is calmer and the whole team can actually hear each other. Saturdays are the scarcest, and the restaurant is closed on Mondays, so plan around a Tuesday through Sunday window and check the current hours for your date.

Two December details are worth knowing early. New Year's Eve runs as a fixed-price gala dinner with live music and a DJ, so if your team wants that night, ask about it as soon as the idea appears, because the evening is sold per seat. And if you are thinking about entertainment for your own date, the restaurant hosts live music on select evenings, often on weekends, so check the schedule while picking the day rather than after.

How a Group Menu Takes Shape

Group menus here start the Greek way: meze for the middle of the table, so nobody waits for the first course. Think dips with warm pita, spanakopita and grilled octopus moving down the table while the charcoal grills work on the mains, from lamb chops to whole grilled fish. For teams with mixed tastes, the sushi menu runs as a second wing of the same kitchen, which solves the eternal office argument of where to eat. The events team customizes the menu around your headcount and budget, and everything on it can be checked against the current menu on the day you book.

The Space: Over the Water, Up to 150 Guests

The celebration itself happens on the terrace over the water or in the indoor dining room, and most December parties end up using both. Private events run for groups of every size up to 150 guests, with the decor customized for the occasion, and teams arriving by boat can use the restaurant's private dock, the same one from our Dock & Dine page. For a smaller leadership dinner rather than a whole-company night, we have written about planning a private dinner party with a view, and the same team handles both.

How to Book

Book through OpenTable, by phone at (305) 497-9775, or through the contact page, and lead with your date, headcount and menu format. Group events are settled in cash, by check or by Zelle, and the deposit terms are confirmed when you book, so the earlier you call, the more of December is still on the table.

FAQ

How far in advance should we book a corporate holiday party?

For a December date, October and early November are the safest window. Weekday dates can come together later, but by late November the choice is usually down to what is left.

How many guests can Mykonos Kitchen & Bar host for a private event?

Up to 150 guests, with indoor and outdoor seating on the waterfront terrace and menu and decor customized for the occasion.

Can we bring the whole company for New Year's Eve?

New Year's Eve runs as a fixed-price gala dinner with live music and a DJ, and seats are sold per guest, so group requests should go in early. The terms for group bookings on that night are confirmed when you book.

How do we pay for a group event?

Group events are settled in cash, by check or by Zelle. Deposit and final headcount terms are confirmed when you book through OpenTable or by phone.
