Hoja Taqueria presents a Mexican-inspired cocktail menu crafted by Christine Wiseman. Drinks incorporate flavors, spices, and ingredients, with options like 'Banana Mole Colada' and 'CORN PORN.' Another dining option is The Jim and Neesie, located off the lobby, which serves dishes like kale salad, cacio e pepe pasta, charred romanesco, and eight-ounce pan-seared fillet steak with truffle jus. An adjacent lounge area with picture windows, floor cushions, low tables, and mid-century chairs serves as a breakfast nook.

Location and access
Situated on Collins Avenue in Miami Beach, Generator Miami is near South Beach. The hotel's location provides access to museums, theaters, restaurants, nightclubs, shops, green parks, marinas, bays and canals. Nearby landmarks include Basement Miami (0.5 km), The Spa at DavidBartonGym (1 km), and Collins Park (1.5 km). Miami International Airport is 20 km from the hotel.
Hotel services
Generator Miami offers a 24-hour front desk, shuttle service, shared lounge, and free WiFi throughout the property. This South Beach hotel combines old American glamour with Cuban and contemporary elements. The white stucco façade features red eyebrow accents, a central portico, and a neon sign, representing South Beach's Streamline Moderne architectural movement from the 1930s.
“In my opinion, this property strikes a solid balance as both a social hub and a conveniently located base. Its proximity to the beach and easy bus access to key spots like South Beach and the airport is a real advantage. While some may find the bathroom sinks less than ideal, the overall experience seems to lean towards comfort and practicality.”
