This was an extraordinary experience. The presentation was precise and beautiful. The staff were professional, friendly, helpful, and informative. The food was unique and delicious. We enjoyed this so much.
Chef Juan Manuel came out personally to greet us. The food was gastronomically at another level and the 18 course tasting was an amazing experience. The cocktails were on point and the service was top notch.

Perfection at its best. We loved our experience 10 days ago and returned to try the bar experience because the flavors and people that make el cielo have all been magnificent. Wish you all the best you guys! Look forward to a future tasting again soon!

This was a beautiful dining experience; the menu is creatively curated to the Columbian style of cuisine. Highly recommend. Definitely above a one star for quality, creativity and experience.

The Service was impeccable, and the food delicious! We went early evening on a weekday, so it was not crowded at all. We have been to other Michelin star restaurants with tasting menus, and like the others, this one was fantastic. The only negative is that even though this is a first class dining experience, I found it quite expensive. But then again, this is Miami, so not unexpected. I would not hesitate to go dine there again.

We had an amazing experience! We were served by Santiago and Luisa. They explain everything throughly. We tried Mando, the old fashion and a whiskey sour. The coffee was extraordinary!
Todo estuvo perfecto. El ambiente frente a la bahía hermoso. La atención fue excelente por todos los meseros. La experiencia Michellin fue exquisita. Cada curso superaba al anterior. No hubo un curso que no disfrutáramos. Y para finalizar tuvimos la gran bendición de que el chef Juan Manuel estuviera. Fue perfecto

This was one of the best dinners my friend and I have ever had. We both are well traveled foodies and have eaten at our fair share of top rated/Michelin starred restaurants. When we were looking for dinner for our last night in Miami we were thrilled to snag an early table. When we read about "The Experiences" I will admit we were mildly skeptical. Would this be a bit over-the-top pretentious ? Was this a real life version of "The Menu"? It was neither! Not only was every.single.course. outstanding, but the interaction was FUN and playful, the waitstaff kind and with a great sense of humor. We both highly recommend dining here!
A really amazing culinary experience in Miami. The flavors were fantastic and complex and combined great local ingredients with traditional Colombian cooking. Several plates were truly unique and experiential and the execution was of a high quality. I could see this place with a second Michelin star in the near future.

This was one of the most amazing dining experiences I've ever had. I seldom write reviews but this was truly one I had to share. The food was so unique and the presentation so dramatic I cannot recommend it highly enough. It is a dinner I will never forget! It is not inexpensive but was absolutely worth it.
My boyfriend and I sat at the bar with Laura. We enjoyed the bar tasting and added one of each al la carte item. While the whole experience was fun, I think we both enjoyed Laura more than the food. The 18 course sit down was a little more food than either of us wanted for a late dinner, and by sitting at the bar we got to watch and interact with some of the staff. While we want to go to the DC location for the entire experience, our shorter version was perfect.

Everyone was attentive, the food was served at a great pace, there was no waiting, the ambient was very welcoming and kind. Most importantly the food was amazing. Highly recommend whether you're in Dc area, Miami, or in Columbia.
Overpriced pretentious restaurant. If you like show and non food related experiences, this is your place. If you like to eat good and tasty food. This is not the place. Such a disappointment. Be prepared to eat foams and gelatine. And for the owner... pay your staff correctly so yo don't have to ask your patrons to leave extra tip besides the 20 % service charge.

The Experience menu was amazing... everything is so good, it's hard to decide what was better. The tree of life was so tasty and the lamb was exquisite. Service awesome, Chris made our night very special.
