“Everything about this restaurant was great the food ,the place is clean , the staff was very nice specifically Veronica. she was awesome , cordial and very professional ,I highly recomend this place, I am definitely going back and again ???“

“Friendly, comfortable and cozy this is another Blue Collar gem. I came for the happy hour 5-6:30 and had three items and a amber ale draft. Now that that’s done; I’m coming back for the regular menu. Clams casino, oysters on the half shell and seared scallops were absolutely the bomb! Try it!“

“Had a great breakfast and best service by Ivan, super friendly, ahead of our needs and even gave us a free pastry, such a nice treat! Will be coming back soon!“

“Stopped at a bar in Miami Airport during a layover and it was actually a solid experience. Grabbed a smash burger and a couple Coronas, but it came out fast and tasted way better than I expected for airport food. Burger had a nice crisp on it and was pretty juicy.

Big shoutout to my waiter EJ though. Super chill, easy to talk to, and kept everything moving without me having to ask. Checked in at the right times and made sure I was good before my flight. You can tell he knows what he’s doing, especially with how busy it gets in there.

Overall just a smooth stop. If you’re passing through, it’s worth it and if you get EJ, you’re set.“

“The waitress Arissa is amazing! Super kind and she has an excellent costumer service.❤️❤️❤️“

“One of my favorite restaurants in Miami! So many yummy dishes! The lamb and the cornbread are delicious appetizers. For the main entree, I recommend the pepper pot. The drinks are pricey but good. The Marqueta is refreshing, I recommend it if you're a tequila fan.

I returned 3 years later to find the pepper pot is no longer on the menu. Please bring it back! I had the oxtail mac & cheese, which was phenomenal. The drink service was slow, though and they were out of a number of items for the cocktails.“

“great food. burgers cooked and seasoned perfect. Mac n cheese is a treat. fresh!“

“Firsy things first, This restaurant is now called Celias. We were looking for Biscayne Tavern and walked right past it twice lol. Went inside the hotel and they let us know we were in the right spot and that the name had changed. The food was very tasty and served hot. The Mahi Mahi sandwich was seasoned perfectly and the cilantro sauce was delicious. We had a few drinks that were also delicious. Overall its a nice place, decorated beautifully with tropical colors and accents.“

“Had breakfast this morning. Food was excellent, cappuccino’s were perfect! Gabriella served us and did everything she could to make it enjoyable for us. So 10/10 rating!“

“Great dinner! Open table suggested I give this restaurant a try......they were right!! Each dish was amazing and came with a performance presentation! My husband had the sea bass and said it was the best he ever had. I had the filet and the pome puree. Bothe were great! The desert was a show we had 6 leches pearl cake it was great! The neighboring tables were fun to watch. Smokey drinks brought in a chest that glowed blue with smoke billowing out snd a seafood tower with sparklers and smoke from dry ice! All the drama! We will be back!“

“Took us 30 min and a couple of stops to find someplace that had appetizing dishes for both of us. Friendly service, food was absolutely delicious, I completely finished my avocado egg toast, though my husband had more than he could eat (meatloaf). Happy diners!“

“I wouldn’t call this is a gastropub - it’s a sports bar. The walls are lined with screens showing American sport and it’s noisy. So if that’s not your thing, stay away. \nWe had a good experience.

“Stopped in for a light breakfast and some coffee on June 17, 2025. Had a great server by the name of Richie S. He was prompt, polite and professional. The three p's that denotes a great employee. He was also patience and properly groomed, those are rare qualities in today's society. This made my dining experience exceptional, and I have always enjoyed stopping at Denny's when traveling. It also made my day, thanks to Richie and the entire staff of Denny's at 3600 Biscayne Blvd in Miami, Florida.“

“This was my first visit and the food was very good. We had reservations so there wasn’t a wait. I had the chicken and waffles and the portion was so much that I couldn’t eat it all. Would definitely eat there again.“

“My best Sport grill , good food, excellent attention“

“Tiffany great service“

“We came here to celebrate my birthday dinner, and it was absolutely amazing. The service was top notch, with such incredible attention to detail by the staff. Our server was very knowledgeable and provided dining options for our group. We sat on their outdoor patio, which gives you a great view of the water where you can watch the boats go by. They also had live music by a lovely duo, which added to the dinner ambience.“

“So I ordered water the entire night and David B made sure each time I got a refill he made it special with different fruits.. he made sure the entire party had drinks flowing.. he is an amazing guy and has the best personality! He’s a tremendous asset to Earls..“

“Excellent food and service.The quality of the food and ingredients is appreciated. Our waiter Sebastian was the perfect complement to the excellence“

“Love it. Still the same from back in the day.“

“My friend and I were looking for a patio outdoor type restaurant cause it was such a beautiful day. It was a 10/10 if I could market this restaurant I would. My daughter was treated like an adult. (She’s 8) and she had a blast. The food was amazing. I got a Cesar salad and a turkey club. (My friend and I split it) and it was amazing food! Will be back!!“

“Excelente ambiente y lugar. Buena comida!“

“Nice smiling faces! felt nice and welcome! Thank you“

“The staff is wonderful! the food us 😋😋😋“

“Servers all said they knew nothing about the Thursday 1/2 rack of ribs special that they said it isn't offered anymore. Well flipping through the adds attached to the table flip add list, we showed it and she said she would have to speak to her manager. She returned saying they can honor it. People don't all know to flip through that and just get handed a regular menu with no extra attachment or notification. Open to all customers!!“

“We stopped in last Monday to kill time before we had to be on our cruise. I had the southwest salad amazingly delicious. My husband had the cheeseburger paradise, he said it was a great burger. Our bartenders Lisa and Dezearae were amazing. Always checking on us. They are very polite. Those two work well together. Definitely recommend and if you can get these two bartenders I can guarantee your experience will be amazing.“

“The legendary Churchill's! Played there for years until recently. Hopefully it re-opens completely soon!!! An iconic place in Miami.“

“Our first visit to Berries, we ordered shrimp scampi and fish and chips. Both dishes were really good. We loved our waiter, Enrique and hope to see him next time we visit.“

“The best attention the best food is delighted with your juice thanks Tamara for your excellent service [Original] La mejor atención la mejor comida quede encantada con su jugo Gracias Tamara por tu excelente servicio“

“The food was DELICIOUS. Sebastian was fantastic! He was essentially alone though to serve and bus almost 10 tables. Hire staff to help to make it a completely enjoyable experience. Sebastian worked HARD. That I’m talking more about him than the food says how much the owners need to prioritize additional staffing. My lobster/shrimp newburg was phenomenal. I hope you’re paying him well. His efforts capped off what could be a great dining experience, in an unassuming/unexpected location.“

“I was las Sunday January the 20 with my wife and daughter and they sit us in the bar area.. first the service was quick and all the team take time to play with my daughter even the manager owner pass to our area a couple of time to see how we was doing.. second the food was out of this world we get sad appetizer the pork belly that was a something really special and the pancakes excellent too.. thanks you guys for make our visit special.. from Madera family“

“Man, what a find! I was driving around after a brutal early morning of Amazon deliveries (you know how it is!), and I was seriously craving some good grits. I actually Googled "grits near me," which is how I stumbled upon this place. I'd seen a review that mentioned "classic diner vibes," and that totally sold me. Walking in, it was like stepping into a different world although it's a bit dated, everyone was so friendly – not just the staff, but the other customers too! I got a bunch of "good mornings" from complete strangers, which was honestly so refreshing. It felt like a real community, a family kind of atmosphere. My server was a total sweetheart. She knew the menu like the back of her hand and was super helpful in guiding me to the perfect breakfast. I ordered the Chuckwagon with eggs over medium, pan sausage, home fries and a side of cheese grits. My server even pointed out a way I could save a few bucks, which I really appreciated. It's awesome when servers are that considerate. The food came out fast and was exactly what I was hoping for – hot, fresh, and cooked perfectly. I got over-medium eggs and grits, and when I poured the grits over my eggs, my server gave me a knowing look and said, "Now that's how you do it – the classic Southern way!" That just made my day. It brought back all these memories of having breakfast with my grandparents – those classic diner breakfasts that just feel like home. It was a real nostalgia trip. Seriously, the whole experience was just what I needed – good food, good people, and a great atmosphere. It just felt… good. I did notice the prices were a little higher than what I saw in some older menu pics online, but honestly, with everything going on these days, it's not surprising. Even with the slightly higher prices, I absolutely loved this place. I'm definitely going back soon. It's the perfect spot for a comforting, classic breakfast that just hits the spot.“
