Open Kitchen is an absolute treasure nestled in Bal Harbour. From the moment you step in, you’re welcomed with a warm, family-friendly atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. The space is inviting, and the vibe is relaxed yet refined perfect after a long, sunny day at the beach.

What truly sets Open Kitchen apart is the incredible quality of the food. Their dishes are not only beautifully presented, but also incredibly healthy and fresh.

Whether you’re enjoying a light salad, a hearty main course, or one of their absolutely amazing desserts, every item on the menu feels like a thoughtful creation crafted with love.

A special shoutout to Ivana, our server, who was an absolute delight. She was warm, professional, and so attentive to every detail constantly making sure we had everything we needed without ever being intrusive. Her hospitality elevated the whole experience.

And behind the scenes, you can truly feel the passion of the chef, whose love for cooking and care for customers radiates through every dish. It’s rare to find a place where both the food and the service are so consistently excellent.

Whether you’re local or just visiting the area, Open Kitchen is a must visit spot. It's the perfect place to refuel your body and soul after a day at the beach. Highly, highly recommended!“

“Excellent food! Best sea food I’ve ever had!“

“Wonderful and fresh food, great atmosphere and very professional crew“

“This place is small but what it lacks in size it stands out in presentation and taste. I ordered a turkey burger, the meat was juicy and full of flavor and the avocado added a beautiful texture, taste and color and the coleslaw was delicious.“

“Awful. Rude staff, poor service, overpriced and pretty sure they discriminate racially. Nice views and design does not make up for it.“

“Very friendly staff and good atmosphere! We had the Cuban sandwich and avacado toast and some cold draft peroni beers! They were very accommodating to our needs and sat us away from a nice family with kids so we could have private adult conversation without disturbing them! ( it can be noisy on the beachfront cafes so you have to talk a bit louder!) overall very nice place!“

“Visite el restaurant y disfrute en familia los deliciosos platos y tragos ,nos sentimos espectacular y quiero resaltar la atención tan esmerada ,con gran carisma del empleado Camilo ,el cual hizo nuestra estancia muy familiar y placentera ,tiene mucho potencial para dar un excelente servicio al cliente ,de hecho le recomendé a unos amigos visitar el restaurant y pronto regresaremos de nuevo ,gracias“

“We stumbled in here for lunch, exploring the neighborhood. At first, I thought the menu for lunch was too small perhaps with too many ingredients for each dish. Clearly my mistake. This kitchen really knows how to combine ingredients for incredible flavor and balance. It’s clear that the chef has put a lot of thought into each of these dishes, without them being fussy or overly wrought. The sweet potato bowl was an explosion of flavors and incredibly satisfying. Even though we were full, I insisted on trying both desserts. The house made vanilla ice cream with rum was one of the best vanillas I’ve ever had and their take on the Pavlova, well, I would come back just for that. Maria provided knowledgeable and attentive service and the overall vibe of the place will bring us back for dinner soon, bravo, Flora..“

“Eliana and Sandra were so sweet and every time I come i feel like home! The food was delicious and Im never disappointed!! Had the ceviche and lomo saltado and never felt so satisfied as I did after eating here“

“My Review to INTIMO: It's simply put one of the best restaurants in Miami. Any angle you look at it: food quality, taste and presentation; service impeccable; cocktails far from average & usual - interesting, full flavor, gorgeously presented. The dishes and cups. The edible bright flowers that bring life and color to the plate. The waiters! Knowledgeable, delicate, with a sense of humor. Violinist - modernistic rap music that sounds like Bach. Ambiance. The light low key table lamps that look like candles. Beautiful photography and chachkas on the walls. One of the main courses we ordered - polenta with crab meat. I could just do this polenta alone like a dessert cream brûlée. It's a place to return to. Thanks to the chef Juan Chipoco, thanks to every person working at INTIMO who helped to create THE experience. Isabel Levin“

“It was amazing! Nico was a great server and every exceeded expectations“

“Nice atmosphere m, staff was great, and food was delicious. The mimosa was as big as my head.. lol However, it was $19. I wish there would have been a smaller size option as I have a very small stomach due to weight loss surgery. With the $19 mimosa I also got a coffee, eggs with cheese and bacon with a bagel to go for my friend. With tip the bill was $60. Now I realize I’m in South Beach, but I think that is a little excessive for breakfast. Lunch and dinner I understand.“

“The best sandwiches in Miami. Delicious and healthy“

“No birthday desert for 80th birthday! Very surprising as other restaurant do something!“

“Boia De is very special. Bold flavor with a delicate execution. The staff are humbly proud of their accomplishments and the Michelin Star is well deserved. The smoked muscles were delicious you need them. Steak tar-tar you must have. The gnocchi will change your life and the lamb could alter they ways of man & possibly change the world. No liquor needed here. Creative mixology with sake & Pilsner will make you happy. Desert a must… buy 2. Or 3.. Love from Mary & Peter“

“Diarelis was excellent.“

“We were lucky to find Crazy About You within walking distance of the Hampton Inn Suites. Stunning view, great cocktails and delicious food. I highly recommend! 👍“

“💟My favorite restaurant in Hollywood Beach, its service, its excellence🛐“

“We had a very enjoyable time at Omakai in Miami this weekend. The restaurant is beautiful and the food and service is excellent. I recommend it highly.“

“I had heard about this hot restaurant from New York that I must try, but was reticent to do so because Carbone was the name of a character from Goodfellas that Robert Deniro's Jimmy Conway whacked when tying up loose ends after the Lufthansa job! Poor sap was hanging frozen in a meat locker. I'm glad I put that imagery aside because this place was amazing! Platitudes like wonderful ambience, fine service, flavorful food, great family style dining, are all applicable but just don't capture the full spirit of the evening. From the pickled cauliflower, to the signature spicy rigatoni ala vodka (which pairs nicely with their pinot noir offering Presqu'ile), to the Caesar salad (you must have those croutons!), and their delicious Italian petit-fours, everything burst with flavor and was resplendent of the authenticity of old Venice. And since you will be spending more than a few pennies here, one must luxuriate in the mid century environs replete with Murano glass chandeliers while being serenaded with a sound track of Italian crooners like Mel Torme and Frank Sinatra in the full bela canta tradition. If you have a special occasion, Carbones Miami Beach will make for a memorable evening.“

“We found this place walking around and Agata was our server. She is so friendly and nice person, she was the reason we stayed more and ordered more drinks and definitely we will come back just to get amazing service from her. Nice music and atmosphere from this place ?“

“I had an incredible experience here! The gluten-free pizza was absolutely delicious—one of the best I’ve had. The service was outstanding, and Lenka truly went above and beyond to make the evening memorable. Her attention to detail, friendliness, and professionalism were exceptional. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for great food and amazing service!“

“Michelle is very nice and very fast.“

“This is a lovely authentic Italian restaurant. They welcomed us with big smiles. The food and service were great. We had a wonderful overall experience. We truly like our waiter Francesco very much. He was very attentive and kind. Husband and wife from Sarasota, FL“

“I live in Miami and my family flew down for my mom’s bday. We decided to bring her for her birthday since it’s always a good time and they do good shows but Vera made it even better! She knows how to get the party started! Got everyone up and dancing! My mom had a blast with her! Thank you so much! I rarely go to South Beach but she’s definitely worth the trip!!! Thanks again!“

“Absolutely amazing! Authentic Mexican food and tastes exactly like it. Nothing will ever compare to this! 100 percent need to pay a visit and try it!“

“Off the charts! 5 stars is the very least I could do!

As we were without reservations, we were seated at the bar. What a turn of events and absolute treat this turned out to be! This was quite literally a chef's table experience!

The staff here is just so kind, warm and inviting - they most certainly hotel right here. We were literally showered in warm hospitality!

Non-alcoholic drinks were made to my imagination and the pasta was so, so comforting and good! As a finer dining sister restaurant to the wonderful Eating House, we should have expected nothing less!

Chef, Anna, Danny, Oliver and Alex we can't thank you all enough! We are grateful for this experience and will be back for a repeat!“
