“10/10 experience at Pico e Gallo BBQ! The carne asada was absolutely delicious. It was so flavorful, tender, and cooked perfectly. The fried plantains were the perfect addition, and their homemade drink was SO good and refreshing!

What really made the experience stand out was the wonderful service. I didn’t catch his name but the gentleman who helped me was incredibly kind, welcoming, and attentive, and you could genuinely tell he cared about making sure I enjoyed the food and experience. He even gave me a free sample of their soup to try, and it was DELICIOUS! Such a thoughtful gesture, it was so good that I would definitely order a full serving next time.

Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and homemade, and the hospitality was just as good as the food. You can tell there is a lot of love and pride put into this place. I’m so glad I stopped in, and I’ll absolutely be back the next time I’m in Miami! ❤️ Definitely give this place a try. you won’t regret it!“

“Had some ribs and chicken last night. nice and tender with good service!! check 'em out!!“

“I was nearby last night and googled a place to get a good burger and I drove down to an area. I’ve never been and found this quaint little area with food trucks and the burger and milkshake here was divine. There’s a nice outside patio bar five or six food trucks that serve different food. I would definitely go back.!“

“In 2024, I participated in the Key2MIA tour, which took place around Juneteenth. One of the stops on the tour was “Meat the Veggies,” where I had the chance to try their food for the first time. I was blown away by their impressive presentation, beautifully set-up tent, and food truck. I was genuinely excited to try whatever they were offering, and thank goodness I did—it was absolutely delicious! Their mango chipotle sauce quickly became my favorite, and I even tagged and persistently reached out to them for months just to get more of it. I also tried their pulled oxtail meat, which was a solid 10/10. It’s a must-try, and I highly recommend it. I truly love this brand!“

“Excellent Service Food is AMAZING TDCJ discount“

“Ty n my no not na to hb t“

“The best BBQ!!. Had a gathering of friends and family and ordered the sampler and additional ribs. The gathering and good conversation soon took a turn to the ribs and brisket, and then the BBQ took a life of its own ,and all conversation. arguments, agreements, disagreements were soon forgotten to be replaced by this great, flavorful BBQ dinner. Cant say enough about Harvey's menu an touch and Natalie's attention to detail. Look forward to a 4th of July BBQ Harvey's style.“

“King Palace Chinese BBQ: South Florida’s Portal to NYC’s Chinatown

​For anyone who grew up or lived around Manhattan’s Mott Street or Flushing, Queens, finding authentic Cantonese cuisine in South Florida can feel like searching for a needle in a haystack. Enter King Palace Chinese BBQ in North Miami Beach—a unassuming gem that delivers the exact soul, sizzle, and nostalgia of NYC’s Chinatown.

​The Atmosphere: No Frills, All Flavor

​If you judge a restaurant by modern, sleek decor, you might miss out. Just like classic Chinatown haunts, King Palace keeps things strictly focused on the food:

​Stripped-Down Vibe: Faded photo menus, simple tables, and roast ducks hanging glistened in the window display welcome you the moment you walk in.

​Communal Energy: Steaming pots of complimentary jasmine tea arrive as soon as you sit down, setting the stage for a family-style feast.

​Diverse Crowd: On any given night, you’ll find multigenerational Asian families, locals, and transplanted New Yorkers filling the dining room.

Final Verdict
​Rating: 4 Stars
​King Palace Chinese BBQ bypasses trendiness to deliver authentic, deeply flavorful authentic Chinese Szechuan food at honest prices. If you've been craving real roast meat over white rice, high-wok-heat seafood, and the nostalgic comfort of an authentic Chinatown spot, this is as close as it gets in SoFlo.“

“The food was excellent the ribs was tender the was delicious and I can’t say anything bad about the cashier because she was very helpful friendly funny and she made us feel welcomed very efficient and always smiling no matter what day I come“

“Visiting in town and walked by this place. It's very inviting and I had an incredible meal. I had the Gallo pinto bowl it was delicious! The staff was really nice and I took coffee & flan to go. I would recommend the steak and fried soft cheese. Best lunch I had in a while!“

“We had the barbecue chicken and fries and pulled pork it was very good and we enjoyed our server Phil who made us laugh a lot would really recommend coming back it’s a great place“

“Muy buena atención por parte del chico que nos atendió el lugar espectacular muy satisfecha con el servicio 👍👍👍“

“Was driving around the area looking for some good BBQ and luckily came across this spot, definitely a great find. The prices are right and the value is solid.

I ordered the regular rib sandwich, and it did not disappoint. The ribs came out hot, smothered in sauce, with that perfectly fatty, flavorful meat, exactly how I like it.

For a little less than $10, I left full and satisfied. I’m on the road a lot, so I’ve already saved this place to my favorites. Definitely coming back for lunch again.“

“Freshest ingredients in Miami. $27.00 per person for lunch. Hot pot and all you can eat buffet. Great venue. Fantastic staff. Clean. 5/5 🌟 I'll be back.“

“La Fogata is the most authentic Nicaraguan restaurant! 🇳🇮❤ The food is absolutely delicious and truly reminds me of the flavors of Nicaragua. Everything is full of flavor, and you can really taste the authentic Nicaraguan cuisine in every bite. If you’re looking for a place to enjoy real Nicaraguan food, La Fogata is definitely a must-visit! 😋🇳🇮“

“Muy buena comida y un excelente servicio. Gracias Valery por atendernos tan bien 😊“

“I've been going there for years. They know me by name. Everyone is really friendly; the location is cozy. The ribs and sauce are delectable. The chicken has always been juicy and not dry. I tried their pork souse, and it is delicious. The baked beans and collard greens are wonderful.“

“As a foodie who travels for work, I sometimes dont want a fancy menu and it is sometimes difficult to find somewhere that you can have one or two simple things that are consistently good. But if you wanted to try something different and very authentic , this place can do both! the service is very good and the main server looks like a Peking Opera star!“
