Description

An early South Beach pioneer, Dr. Timothy Hogle has been instrumental in South Beach's resurgence as one of the nation's brightest dining destinations. In 1986, he created what became the Beach's first sushi restaurant, Toni's Sushi. But, oddly enough, Hogle didn't start his career on South Beach as a restaurateur. His dental practice has attracted top celebrities and models as patients, giving Hogle the nickname of "dentist to the stars."

In 1996, Hogle launched Tantra Productions, a Miami Beach-based post-production studio. A year later, Hogle developed a restaurant concept based on the ancient Indian philosophy of spiritual realization through heightening the senses. The result? Tantra Restaurant & Lounge. Hogle, who has been practicing meditation for over 25 years, wanted to create an environment that stimulated the five senses. After months of intensive research, he developed an aphrodisiac menu with flavors spanning the globe and designed the restaurant to create the perfect Tantric ambience, which includes fresh cut grass on the floors, a soothing indoor waterfall, fiber-optic starlight and vanilla-scented candles. He even imported a veritable fortune of authentic Tantric art. Since it's opening in December 1997, Tantra has become South Beach's hottest dining and entertainment destination, attracting celebrities, locals and visitors.
