Dancing with the Stars power couple Daniella Karagach and Pasha Pashkov have proven they have more than just footwork to show the world. The championship ballroom duo has traded their dancing shoes for barista spoons, partnering with Miami entrepreneur Emanuel Rich to launch Sulta Rosa their first-ever restaurant concept bringing a fresh and elegant energy to Miami Beach's iconic dining scene.

Nestled at 821 Lincoln Road in the heart of Miami Beach, Sulta Rosa held its highly anticipated grand opening on July 7. The chic new café is a deliberate departure from the couple's fast-paced, high-energy performances. Rather than a grab-and-go espresso stop, Sulta Rosa is conceived as a refined sanctuary a place where guests are invited to slow down, linger, and truly savor every sip and bite in a beautifully curated atmosphere.

For years, Karagach and Pashkov have turned their global touring and competition schedule into a personal quest seeking out the world's finest local cafés from city to city, continent to continent. Now, they are channeling that well-traveled passion into a menu that reads like a love letter to the world's greatest culinary traditions. Sulta Rosa embraces what may be the most universal language of all: carbs and caffeine. The thoughtfully curated selection of luxury delicacies spans the globe without ever leaving Lincoln Road buttery, golden croissants that transport you straight to a Parisian side street, handcrafted gelato evoking the sun-drenched piazzas of Rome, artisanal baklava layered with rich Mediterranean heritage, freshly baked cookies that deliver the warmth of home, and specialty coffee beverages crafted with the kind of precision and care that would satisfy even the most discerning café connoisseur.

At its heart, Sulta Rosa is a luxury coffee and dessert experience built around a simple but powerful idea: the art of the pause. Every corner of the warm, modern space has been thoughtfully designed to foster genuine connection from the intimate seating arrangements to the soft, inviting ambiance that makes it easy to lose track of time in the best possible way. For Karagach and Pashkov, coffee has never been just a caffeine fix; it is a meaningful daily ritual, a moment of stillness amid the whirlwind of rehearsals, performances, and life on the road. Sulta Rosa is the first expression of their larger vision: to bring beautiful, community-centric neighborhood cafés to life in cities that crave them. It is a place where the daily hustle fades into the background, conversation flows as freely as the espresso, and as the duo would have it your taste buds do all the dancing.

With Karagach and Pashkov's flair for elegance and Rich's deep Miami roots, Sulta Rosa is already generating buzz as one of the most exciting new openings on Lincoln Road this season. Whether you're a devoted fan of the duo's dance floor charisma or simply in search of a sophisticated new café experience, Sulta Rosa promises a visit worth savoring — no dance moves required.
