When we arrived to the restaurant it was totally empty. There was a bartender who greeted us but it seemed as though he wasn't aware there were reservations for that evening. He stated that there was no server at the moment but we could sit anywhere we'd like. He came and took our drink and food orders. The food was just okay and I would not come back. However, kudos to the Bartender for being the bar maid, hostess and waiter!!
The menu is not the same...the rice used to be my favorite, it was not good! And the oysters had tooooo much of a fishy smell.
WORST EXPERIENCE EVER ! Never coming back to this place. Our reservation was at 10:45pm we got there on time order our food and it took them 3 HOURS to serve our food and when the food arrived to our table by 1:30am we weren't even hungry anymore and that jerked pasta was not edible was WAY TO SPICY that got us sick and they didn't have the desserts that shows on menu. All the menu is overpriced...
I got there at 7 on time. Walked in behind a group of guys. It was four of them n me and my girl. So six of us walked. No cook no waiters just a bartender. We sat until about 8:45 no orders no food no nothing. The guys b4 us got there for idk how cus we was told the kitchen wasn't ready or in. Wat ever tht mean. As we sat ppl was coming to work but no one helped but the bartender. Honestly it's more but I can't tell it all. It was the worst ever
I was charged $25/person for a reservation the restaurant accepted only to be completely closed at the time of my reservation on arrival. No one to answer the phone or explain why the hours show as open (6:30pm for happy hour) when the restaurant is closed.
There were 3 other tables other than ours and the food took 1.5 hrs, about a hr passed and the server told us that one of the items we ordered was out, then we got the fried rice and the rice wasn't fully cooked & hard. For two drinks each and a pasta it was $154. Music was good but that was about it.
I ordered the jerk chicken pasta & the chicken was burnt. The ambience was nice but the music was so loud you can't hear your conversation. Although the restaurant wasn't full it took forever for our food to come out. Drinks were weak as well.
I think the lighting and decor were on point. The staff was really and accommodating. We were running really late and we still were seated in a timely manner with no issues with my reservation. The music is really loud it's hard to talk or have a conversation. I'm guessing it's suppose to be more of a party after 9 because it felt like the club. I would much rather house music or R&B for dinner. The rap music didn't really set the middle to me. The blue wall is legendary lol. Overall good restaurant, could be great. They didn't have the steak eggrolls and someone told me they were really good here. My steak was really good and the garlic really popped on the Broccolini.
Horrible!! The waitress was nice but the restaurant sucks! They didn't have anything in the kitchen that was on the menu. Ordered lobster they burnt it. Only had one order of lamb chops, it was a mess. The place smells like mildew. It's not a beautiful inside as it is shown in pictures.
Overall we had a good time and our server was super nice! However, I don't like the fact that they give you small portions of food, there was no liquor in the drinks at all it tastes like syrup. Also, they're considered a “lounge” and we weren't able to get hookah after 10pm. Also, it's mandatory you buy a bottle after 9pm and the minimum is $1000. That's absolutely ridiculous . I feel like if you want to be seen as a club then don't offer dinner and open up at 11:00pm like most clubs. People should be demanded to buy bottles and also, how are you a hookah lounge but don't offer it until after 10? But after 9 you have to buy a bottle. That's a complete rip off and I see why the place was empty. Service is great but they need to re-do their business strategy because it's all over the place.

This restaurant has nice decor, but they need to repair the cushions in the booths. The night I was there the waitress was not friendly, everything we asked for the answer was no (pre fix menu selection, Miami spice deal, use inkind app for payment, to speak to a manager). The management needs to really evaluate the overall service and restaurant decor. The wi fi wasn't working so they couldn't take credit card payment and didn't tell us until it was time to pay the bill.
Food was very salty. Seats all had holes and rips. Waiter didn't know where to take customer's orders
I was honestly shocked and disappointed with my experience at Playa. I paid $2,700 for a table, and throughout the night the service and experience were far below expectations: •Several items we ordered (and prepaid for) were out of stock, but management refused to credit us back. •We paid for juice and had to ask three separate times before receiving just one small carafe of cranberry juice — which eight people had to share for the entire night. •When I asked for glasses and napkins, the server eventually returned with two dirty, unwashed glasses from the bar. With 8 of us at the table, we ended up having to reuse shot glasses to mix drinks. Clean glasses were never brought despite multiple requests. •We prepaid for Red Bulls but never received them. After asking at least five times, we were finally told at the end of the night they had run out. Still, they refused to credit the charge back to my card, saying they “couldn't.” •On top of that, our waitress had a terrible attitude, was dismissive throughout the night, and refused to provide a copy of my receipt when I asked. For the amount we paid, this level of service is completely unacceptable.
Too loud, drinks weren't tasty. Food wasn't good Hard to focus on food or conversation. Felt like I was in a club. Photographer was the best part.
As far as my experience at Playa Miami, the food was overpriced for the portions that they served the waitress was busy working in the party area more than she was in the main area where we were seated at so we had very limited access to her I was not pleased at all with the experience and the cost that I paid for the food.
