The food was delicious. We had the salmon, shrimp cocktail, and Caesar salad and we loved it all. It was, however, extremely loud music so we opted to take our meal back to our room to enjoy it in a little quieter Space.

The hygiene conditions were so poor that I cannot recommend this restaurant at all. To begin with, this place has basically turned into a feeding ground for pigeons. The couch seats near the entrance are especially bad—pigeons walk freely underneath the couches, and if you’re not careful, they’ll even fly onto the armrests and low tables.
I had high expectations since this is a restaurant at the five-star Fontainebleau Miami Beach, so it was very disappointing. The food itself was good and the atmosphere of the restaurant was nice, which made the lack of hygiene stand out even more.
I strongly recommend that the restaurant management take serious action to address the pigeon problem.

It’s a great place to spend your evening or day by the pool. Sometimes the music gets a bit loud especially if you are near the speakers. But overall it’s a chill place.

Food was delicious! Atmosphere was adorable. Service was PERFECT. A but pricey for the food, but not nearly as pricey as all other restaurants at Fontainebleau. So we loved it!!!

Waiter ‘Max’ ruined our experience. Terrible rude waiter- ignored our requests and had a very argumentative attitude with us the entire time. Unwelcoming and unfriendly.

Way above your average poolside restaurant. We ordered a few dishes to share, but the ones I can't stop thinking about were the Spanish octopus, the sauce was absolutely incredible. And the shiitake mushroom dish, packed with flavor. Such a great lunch that I'll be dreaming about for a while!

We get there, server at the front immediately rude. Not welcoming or friendly at all. She doesn't give us menus after sitting us all the way in the back, we requested to sit more towards the bar. She says it will take a lot of time to clean a 24 inch table. It gets cleaned in 1 Minute and cleaner tells us to come to the table. We proceed to sit there for 20 min until server questions us about lying about our seats and says we should when gotten mended, we tell her the server didn't give us any and was still skeptical until I showed our text message about it. Server then comes back and blames us for the mistake. After waiting 30 minutes we left. Service was not great at all. They need to address the front servers attitude towards customers. Just not a good experience

What a fun bar! This spot between the pool and beach is perfect for a vacation. The DJ was playing great party music, and the bar staff would sometimes spray CO2 cannons just like a Miami club. The Miami Vice was very refreshing, and the staff was attentive. La Cote is a great time.

The food was delish, beautiful location close to the pool, not far from the ocean
Fun all around. Great food and service. Fantastic poolside atmosphere and definitely much nicer than your typical hotel poolside restaurant. Service was fantastic! My only constructive criticism which would take service from fantastic to superb is having the staff read reservation notes so that questions are not asked at the table. In this case, one diner was vegetarian and we were also celebrating a birthday....the hostess should be passing this information to the rest of the staff otherwise what's the point of giving you information upfront?

Overall great experience! Service was very good and everyone was attentive to everything we needed.

expecting an upscale atmosphere and quality of cuisine, we were terribly disappointed. it's an extremely loud and overcrowded party city experience. absolutely awful if you like quality and peaceful atmosphere. never going back there.

The food was absolutely the best and eclipses only by the caliber of our server who was super cool and very accommodating.

Very fun place to have lunch, this place will give you Miami vibes with its beautiful views of the ocean and its tasty food options and including music for the guests and the cool drinks from the bar. Can’t go wrong with La Cote.
