MIAMI, FL—— Tenzer PLLC
has completed the successful negotiation of a restaurant lease for La Petite Maison, a high-end French
Mediterranean restaurant in Miami’s Brickell neighborhood. Miami marks the
first U.S. location for the iconic brand.
Renowned restaurateur Arjun Waney first fell in love with La
Petite Maison when he dined at the original location, founded by Nicole Rubi and Bernard Ollé, in Nice,
France. Waney bought the ownership rights of the brand to expand the concept
internationally outside France.

His business partners for the brand’s U.S.
expansion include Bob Ramchand and Raphael Duntoye, the Chef Patron. La
Petite Maison has three additional locations in London, Istanbul and Dubai.
Located at 1300 Brickell
Bay Drive, La Petite Maison provides indoor and outdoor seating. Tenzer
arranged the lease for approximately 5,000 square feet of interior space and
nearly 2,500 square feet of terrace space.
La Petite Maison is
situated within BrickellHouse, a 46-story ultra-modern luxury residential
tower. For the Tenzer attorneys, one of the challenges of having a restaurant
in a high-rise building is navigating through the intricacies of the
condominium regime to ensure the client’s vision for the use of the space lines
up with the covenants and conditions of record.
Additionally, given the
retail units in this particular project were also condominiumized and sold to
third parties, the negotiation process included not only the actual landlord,
but also the developer and condo association.
In addition to La Petite
Maison, Tenzer attorneys recently negotiated a 5,200-square-foot restaurant
lease for another one of Waney’s ventures, a new Latin-Asian concept in South
Beach called DÔA. Similar to La Petite Maison, DÔA is part of a mixed-use
development with a hotel and residences. Before finalizing the restaurant
lease, the attorneys had to ensure the condo documents were devoid of material
issues that would interfere with construction or operation.
