Stubborn Seed - Miami Beach

Great experience and service! Miami spice menu was very interesting and delicious! Thank you!

outstanding in every way but the food is absolutely the winner here. imaginative and delicious. the best restaurant in south beach.

Experience was amazing! Specifically Tokyo was amazing! The detail in his descriptions made the experience all the better. He deserves a raise

Food took a long time to arrive and when it did it was inedible because it was too salty. I kept trying to gaslight myself that it was in only in my head and kept taking bites, my last bite I had to spit out. Seems the chef forgot it was salted so they salted it 2 more times before it got to our table. Told the runner when they asked how the food was and “we will make sure we tell the chef” - a missed opportunity to make it right.We went for Miami spice and the people next to us that didn't, got their food fast. Is the restaurant discriminating against locals that are supporting the business during off season. Bartender asked how it was we told her the same. “Did you tell the runner?” Yes we did and we are telling you now but nothing. Had high hopes.

The dinind experience is absolutely exquisite at this restaurant. The love and care put into every ingredient and dish is evident. I adored our server who had the most lovely smile and great passion for the food, which made it more tantalizing and exciting. The only thing I would change is the ambience and music...something about that just didn't align for me...but Its just my opinion and this shouldn't deter anyone from going!

Perhaps being extremely handsome is a job requirement here — and if it is, I'm 100% on board. Michael was amazing from the moment I arrived, greeting me warmly and seating me right away. He knew the Miami Spice menu inside and out, which made choosing so much easier. Ricardo, my server and bartender, crafted a delicious gin cocktail and offered spot-on recommendations to perfectly complement my Miami Spice selections. Even Tokyo added to the experience with his own fantastic gin cocktails, plus the true gentlemanly touch of walking me out when I was done — a small gesture that left a big impression. And then there was Jordan — the absolute highlight of the evening. The way he described each dish was pure poetry, building anticipation and making me even more excited for every plate that arrived. All in all, it was a phenomenal dining experience. Compliments to Chef Jeremy -and his farm. Beautiful people, incredible service, and unforgettable food. Solid 10/10.

10/10 recommend this restaurants on all levels. Food was fabulous to begin with, every dish that came out was unique and well made. Service was great without issue. Steven, the waiter did a great job recommending choices based on our preferences. Very good restaurant and will come back

The food here is really good — definitely at a Michelin star level in terms of taste. But the Miami Spice menu was honestly ridiculous… it’s supposed to be a 3-course menu, yet the portions were the size of an 8-course tasting menu. My son actually had to eat again after we left.
The atmosphere didn’t match what I’d expect from a Michelin star restaurant either — loud, popular music and a sports bar vibe. The AC was freezing, and there was a strong hotel-like scent in the air, which isn’t great when you’re trying to enjoy a meal.
The service, unfortunately, also wasn’t at the level you’d expect from a Michelin star — it just didn’t have that attention to detail or refinement.
I’ve been to many Michelin restaurants, and while the food here is solid, the overall experience just wasn’t at that level.

Not the classic Michelin star restaurant, more informal, but the food very creative and the staff was great ! Tokyo and Starling were very professional and personal at the same time … definitely recommend it specially with Spice prices!

Food was incredible as expected. Service, great as well. Bathrooms cleaned and well stocked.

Food was very tasty though the dessert was a bit disappointing. Portions were very small even for a Miamii spice menu.

We had the pleasure of sitting at the bar with Ida taking care of us. She was very knowledgeable (I had a lot of questions). I’m also a picky eater and she made sure I got something I’d like. She absolutely nailed it! 10/10 will be going again the next time we are in South Beach.

A must try if you are In Miami, charming decor, great ambiance without being pretentious... Our server Kevin was great, attentive and knowledgeable. We had the tasting menu with the wine pairing and the value for the money is great. Can't wait to go back!!!
