A great experience. Food was good. Service was great. Magician was fun. No band, only on weekends. The magician knew about my wife's birthday from the reservation, but not the server. Although super polite, but a bit distracted. Parking ( $40 valet, but basically just being allowed to leave ur car in front of the restaurant. 20% gratuity is added on the check, it is a service fee for all staff. Additional gratuity is asked for and expected for your own server. Overall, a great and fun experience.

Long story short. We ordered a draft beer and a mixed drink when we ordered dinner. The mixed drink came out about 15 minutes later. Another 10 minutes later, I went to the bar to order a beer in hopes of getting it sooner. My waiter taps me on the shoulder and says its on the way out, that I can sit down. Another 5 minutes later we received our food. Another 5 minutes later I received my beer. The battered fish was less than mehh, tasted kind of funky. Also note, the occupancy was at about 10%.
Chicken and pork were completely overcooked. Prices are ridiculously bad. We had two starters, three mains and 7 drinks in total. $413 without tips. Service and setting was the only decent part of the meal If you want your eyes gouged out for less than mediocre food, go here
Our waiter had no clue it was our Anniversary, he didn't come back to the table for dinner service we did get an appetizer. VERY disappointed
We had an awesome time! We dined everyday there. Great food, great servers, and awesome entertainment at night. Definitely going back the next time we are around.
Great live entertainment complete with singer, dancers and band! Amazing food as always! A must visit while in South Beach.
Gave me my correct bill of $109 then took my card and swiped it on their portable machine. As the server bolted away I got a notification from my credit card that they charged $308. The manager fixed it right away, but the way the server moved so quickly through the screens on the payment system and ran away so quickly after I signed leaves me suspicious.
Food was excellent. Extremely loud music making it difficult to have conversation. Seemed a bit short on servers. Took a fair amount of time to get drinks / water. Make sure to ask about prices on drinks. Ended up paying $41 for a margarita because I asked for a Grand Marnier floater which I'm convinced was not in the drink (at least not as a floater). I asked the waiter and he insisted it was in there. Live and learn. It's our first night in Miami. Definitely worth going for the good.
Enjoyed our visit. Only drawback was length of time it took for meals to come out of kitchen, but when it did it was delicious

Food was delicious! Location was great! The price of the food and the service was not worth it!
Great food, lovely servers. We went a little early which is why it was slightly quiet. Classic margarita was great. Highly recommend!
We xome a group of us every year to celebrate in April. The staff are extraordinarily welcoming and it's become a tradition. Cuban food in Miami Beach (believed it or not) is hit or miss. Some Cuban restaurants “modify “ the recipes for the tourists and to cut costs and forget their Cuban roots. Not so here. They are the best in South Beach.
We started out with cocktails and appetizers, and they were absolutely fabulous. The Cuban shrimp cocktail was very flavorful! We then had a sampler platter that my husband and I split and it was definitely enough food for both of us. It was great trying the different taste of Cuban dishes. Our server was very attentive and we just had such a wonderful time! 
The food and service was great! I'd say the only disappointment was the drink. I got a pina colada and barely had any liquor in it. Taste good but barely any liquor
