Very nice chill date night restaurant on Sunday following our weekend in Miami. Vibes were chill laid back yet romantic and simple. Food was very good without all the fire and loud music, we’d experienced everywhere else we’d gone. Service was also very good, I think our waiters name was Frankie, very helpful in making our selections as well as attentive.

A foodies reward awaits anyone venturing into Mignonette. Every dish is prepared to perfection with a unique combination of spices that coats the palette. The service is attentive and provides a perfectly timed dinner experience. Highly recommend.

Great place!
I brought my boyfriend here for his birthday, and overall, the experience was just okay. Unfortunately, our waiter was inconsistent and barely checked on us, which made the service feel lackluster.
We started with the oyster flight and the clams casino—easily the highlight of our meal. The oysters were fresh, clean, and free of grit, while the clams casino were some of the best I’ve ever had. They were packed with flavor, served in a delicious combination of bacon, shallots, piquillo peppers, and white wine sauce. At this point, we were excited for what was to come.
However, things started to go downhill. We had also ordered the fish dip, but it never arrived. Our waiter never acknowledged the mistake, so we didn’t even get the chance to try it.
For our entrées, I ordered the snapper with cheesy polenta and broccolini, and I really enjoyed my dish. The flavors were well-balanced, and the fish was cooked beautifully. The only downside was that the polenta, while delicious, was served a bit cold. My boyfriend, on the other hand, was extremely disappointed with his grouper. It looked and tasted like a frozen piece of fish—bland, uninspired, and overshadowed by the sides. Given that we live in Florida, where fresh seafood is a staple, this was a major letdown.
Hoping to end the meal on a high note, we wanted to order a slice of key lime pie—but, unsurprisingly, they were out. At that point, it just felt like the cherry on top of an already frustrating experience.
Needless to say, we probably won’t be back unless it’s just for appetizers (or maybe to finally try that fish dip we never received—if they don’t forget again, lol).

Excellent oysters and service was very attentive. Little hole in the wall place off the beaten path with fresh food and a solid variety of options. Splitting dishes with someone is recommended, although you may end up fighting over the bites. The surf and turf is definitely a two person deal, but the filet mignon was cooked to perfection and the sauce was excellent. The key limepie was appropriately tart and the graham cracker crust was on point.

Team work makes the dream work applies here. Had great service from multiple staff members. Had some of the best scallops and octopus we have ever had.

Awkwardly Discriminative. Went to this restaurant for a a couple of Fridays in a row with the thought of becoming regulars since we live across the street upstairs and have a small child. We thought it would be a good family location with happy hour, went a few times to the happy hour. And then invited a group of friends to join us but then when we came with our friends we were told happy hour no longer was provided to table service only at the bar. After going several Fridays in a row and I have a small child so we never sat at the bar and were offered happy hour. We also ordered a bottle of San pelligrino and were told to not even pay for it that is how badly they wanted us to leave. It was super awkward because we had a group of 7 of us with our child a very family style group and were basically asked to leave. No sure why this ocurred but this is not a family friendly place. I guess if you’re not of a certain class or without children they are not supportive of diners. Do not recommend.

10/10 I just dined here with my husband and we both left happy and with full bellies. We started with the oyster flight and it was delicious. Oysters were cleaned very well. Then, we had mussels in white sauce - I literally could’ve drank the sauce - it was so flavorful! *I should also mention the timing of the dishes was appreciated. We had a nice amount of time between appetizers, entrees & dessert*
Main courses were outstanding and the portions were generous. It felt as though a loving family member cooked for us. We literally were stuffed to the brim but had to finish strong with dessert. We got the bread pudding and it was the cherry on top to our amazing meal.

It was really disappointing, my last time here it was an awful experience, the food was so bad, overcooked, burnt, salty, the lobster quality is super bad, I did not enjoy anything. Moreover, we let waiter and manager know , they did not apologize for it, and then when they brought the check they lied , saying that they took out the fries from the check but the fries was a side of the plate and they did not do anything about it . I don’t recommend this place anymore, it’s nothing how it used to be.

Food was AWFUL. Even though I enjoyed the chips & the wine. The Branzino was was smelled & tasted very fishy.
My mother ate it because she didn't want to insult me, Since I not only suggested to come to the restaurant but I also ordered it...
