I arrived at 9:15 PM because the listed closing time is 10:00 PM. That’s a full 45 minutes before closing, yet the staff at Mr. Pork Belly told me they were already closing. The place was almost empty, so it’s not like they were overwhelmed. This was really disappointing, if you’re going to stop serving well before your posted hours, you should update your closing time to reflect that. I drove all the way from Fort Lauderdale and ended up wasting my time.

Loved Shoma Bazaar! The options are great for food and such a cool concept for the bar and lounge. I wish we had something like this in Brickell!

Manny was exceptional! This bar is an absolute gem! The atmosphere is welcoming and energetic, with just the right mix of cozy and vibrant. The staff is friendly, attentive, and genuinely knows how to make you feel at home. The drinks? Incredible — expertly crafted cocktails, a great beer selection, and top-shelf spirits. Whether you’re stopping in for happy hour, a night out with friends, or a laid-back evening, this place never disappoints. Clean, well-managed, and always a good time. Highly recommend!

Shoma Bazaar is the best food hall in Miami Doral with award winning restaurants like Chick N Jones , voted best fried chicken in Miami . they also offer roasted and grilled pollo seasoned to perfection and perfect pairing to a curated cocktail at the well appointed bar

Went for an after work get together. Must pay for parking, the atmosphere is nice. Ordered from BFF burgers which was good. When I went to the vendor to place a to go order, the cashier was rude! Not even a hello.
I am writing to express my extreme disappointment and frustration following a deeply upsetting experience at your establishment last night. What was supposed to be a celebratory evening for my friend’s birthday turned into an infuriating and disrespectful encounter—primarily due to the unprofessional conduct of your general manager, whose behavior was shockingly dismissive and downright rude.
Our group ordered several dishes and consumed a substantial amount of food. While the adults stepped over to the bar to order drinks, a waitress approached our table and asked my 15-year-old daughter if she could take the plates—even though they still had food on them. Rather than offering boxes to take the food to go, the waitress took it upon herself to start clearing the table without any clear confirmation. My daughter, understandably distracted on her phone, replied “I don’t know” and, being polite as she was raised to be, handed over some plates—not realizing she was giving away everyone’s unfinished meals.
When we returned to the table and saw all the food had been taken, we asked to speak to a manager. The waitress who was involved disappeared and never returned. Eventually, we had to track someone down to request a manager again. That’s when the general manager arrived, and what happened next was utterly unprofessional and unacceptable.
Rather than attempting to resolve the issue with any level of care or courtesy, the general manager took an immediate defensive stance, showing zero concern for the fact that we had just lost a significant amount of food—after spending over $400. She dismissed our frustration and coldly said, “Let’s check the cameras,” as if her goal was simply to prove us wrong rather than understand the issue.
She then had the audacity to blame my 15-year-old daughter, saying she helped the waitress and even going so far as to imply that my daughter “looked older.” Not only is that completely inappropriate—it is also insulting. Your staff took advantage of a minor’s politeness and turned it into justification for discarding our food without checking with any adults at the table.
To make matters worse, while we were still clearly upset, one of your waitresses was seen laughing at us, and my husband witnessed it firsthand. This kind of behavior is absolutely unacceptable. Meanwhile, others—like staff from the bar and even a kind employee from the Italian restaurant—made more of an effort to help than the general manager ever did. In fact, she contributed nothing to resolving the issue and instead made it worse with her condescending, cold, and unprofessional demeanor.
This experience was not only frustrating—it was insulting. You automatically add gratuity to the bill, yet think it’s acceptable to laugh at guests, dismiss a valid concern, and put the blame on a child?
I will never return to this establishment, and I will be sure to share this experience widely. I sincerely hope you take a hard look at the general manager’s behavior, because someone in that position should be setting a standard—not tearing down your reputation.
