“We made a reservation for our Anniversary (24-02-18) after looking at some online reviews in the area we were staying in Miami. SO happy we chose here to celebrate our anniversary! The atmosphere was very inviting, busy yet flowing with a full dining room. Our waiter Andreu was very welcoming asking us if we were there for a special occasion. With our anniversary he provided us each with a glass of champagne! He explained the dinner specials and even brought us a taste of one of the appetizers called Fiocchi Rapers – filled pasta with cheese and pear, with crispy prosciutto and creamy truffle sauce. So delicious! We decided on 2 entrees, the Lasagna Bolognese, and the Crab Ravioli. Absolutely, hands down, some of the best pasta dishes we’ve ever eaten!“
“What a great find! I have visited this restaurant with my girlfriend twice and both time it has been phenomenal. Our first time was for dinner. We were in the mood for some Turkish food and happened to find this on a quick search on google. The music, the service, the food. All were fantastic. Second time was for Sunday Brunch and we had the unlimited Turkish breakfast. Wow! The shear amount and taste was incredible. Some of the best breakfast I have ever had. We ordered some additional dishes like the Menemen and what a great choice it was! You will definitely not leave hungry! I feel bad for forgetting her name and having thrown out my receipt but the waitress there was such a great host and we will definitely be going back!“
“You guys will have a gastronomical orgasm here. From the sushi to the dessert I wanted to cry tears of joy with each bite. You guys remember when the restaurant critic had a bite of Remy’s ratatouille and it took him back to his childhood when he was just a lad, that’s what will happen to you here.“

“The best pizzas in Miami and theBetter attention. Luis and Dani are super friendly, they make you feel at home, it is not theFirst time visiting the place and every time I come I don't want to try any other pizza other than theirs. The Claudio is my favorite.“
“We had the BEST experience at Mister 01 and cannot wait to come back! Our waitress, Abbey made all the difference. It felt like fine dining in Dallas’ Harwood District. Worth the wait on a Friday night. We had giggled about whether the pizza would really be “Extraordinary” and it actually was! Especially the crust. They also have gluten-free and vegan options. Be a sure you take the time to let your server give you the backstory on the restaurant. It’s pretty awesome!! The icing on the cake was upon leaving when Abbey gave us handmade origami hearts with encouraging words inside. She didn’t know it, but we sure needed those sweet words! Thank you Abbey and Chef for a wonderful evening.“
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about this restaurant…as a LOCAL. I have been here solo (at night) and I’ve gone with my boyfriend (early evening) and both times the service was friendly, knowledgeable and relaxed. If you take the time to get to know your server, you find out a lot of really cool things about not only them but the restaurant. Did you know that every server speaks Italian and the majority of them all are from Italy? I bet if he took the time to get to know the people that are there on a daily basis the more you understand the quality of food that you’re receiving. Pasta is freshly made. All the vegetables looked and tasted fresh. The burrata was perfect. And the choices on the menu were not TOO many but had just the right amount. BTW they have GLUTEN FREE PASTA! I also enjoyed a glass of rosé, both times and two different glasses of red wine. Great selections. After dinner I enjoyed a cappuccino and an espresso the other time and had an overall great experience. This is now my favorite spot to go for Italian in South Beach. Highly recommend“
“An absolute gem of a dining experience! From the moment you step into this cozy, quintessentially French restaurant, you're transported to a culinary haven. The ambiance is warm and inviting, perfect for a romantic evening or intimate gathering. But it's the masterfully crafted cuisine that steals the show. Each dish is a work of art, meticulously prepared with the finest ingredients and bursting with exquisite flavors. From the velvety soups to the delicate pastries, every bite is a delight to the senses. The attentive staff adds to the charm, ensuring a seamless dining experience from start to finish. If you're seeking an unforgettable taste of France, look no further than this culinary masterpiece.“
“I am Italian and find very difficult to find authentic and traditional food in Miami. However, since Igor opened his restaurant a few years ago, I visit it at least once or twice a week. He uses the best imported Italian ingredients for his recipes which are all 100% real and authentic. The presentation of the dishes is elegant end the portions are abundant. Since the chef is from Venice, he has a special talent for seafood; my favorite is his seafood risotto but he offers many other amazing options.“
“There was a little bit of a wait when we arrived but I got placed in line via a concierge system and we waited around 20 minutes for a table for four. Not bad at all. Service was great and the pizzas we ordered were tasty. My favorite was the meat lovers and the coffee pizza. 5/5 experience and I would definitely come back for this.“
“An amazing gem of a restaurant with great food, service, and ambiance. If I lived closer this would be a regular spot, for sure. Their plates are incredible, like the actual plates, and the food on top of them was delicious. Definitely recommend for a fun, casual, enjoyable meal with friends.“
“As a local, I love this bar so much! Hands down the best bar in Miami Beach. Will be so sad if the hotel closes for renovation, will miss everything— beautiful food, unique wines, awesome staff, delicious (pickle!) cocktails, and relaxing vibe—about this special little gem. There is absolutely no other place like Water Lion here or across the bay.“
“A hidden gem. 100% grass fed grass finish quality food cooked to perfection. The server was a sweet heart and provided a great dining experience. I look forward to returning soon.I can not wait to stop by their butcher shop close by and purchase some quality meat to take home. I doubt I'll cook it as good as they did.“

“First things first, my review is looooong overdue lol (pls don't judge me)I went and got the omakase special when it was Miami Spice Month and boy did it not disappoint! The price was $60 and was totally worth it! I loved how they cook in front of you and it was for a small group of people. This gives you not only a more intimate setting but also a chance to ask the chefs any questions.“
“OUTSTANDING!!!! One of the best dinners we’ve ever had!!!!! Everything was just STELLAR. Every single food item was delicious and fresh and authentic. And the service was UNBELIEVABLE! ALAN was our captain, and he was one of the best servers we’ve ever had. He made our birthday celebrations unforgettable. Thank you ALAN! And Oliver provided drinks and appetizers and was just superb! Thank you OLIVER! Thanks to Alan, Oliver and the entire Il Mulino team for giving us one of the most unforgettable nights we’ve ever had!!!!!!“
“Delicious Argentinian steakhouse. We ordered Lo De Lea tabla to share and everything was perfectly cooked ?? the sangrias were great also, ask for the Luxe one with Prosecco! Our server Micaela was super friendly and helpful! The staff was super attentive as well.If you tag them on your IG story they give you a surprise! We got ice cream! Will definitely come back!Parking: Parking is right next door the hotel. Super close!“
“I love Battubelin and take every guest I have so that I can enjoy it again. Signore Stefano is always so welcoming and one of my favorite servers Carlotta, so accommodating and attentive. Their pizza I think is the best in Miami and my guests enjoy everything they order. It passes the critical taste tests of both my sons who were raised in Italy and with their mother are foodies. Nothing more needs saying, go and enjoy!“
“Lagniappe is a true taste of Louisiana in the heart of Austin! From their Cajun classics to their inventive cocktails, every bite and sip is a celebration of Southern hospitality. The cozy ambiance and friendly staff make it a perfect spot to unwind and indulge in the flavors of the bayou.“
“Not sure there are enough words to describe this epic experience. The hospitality, the atmosphere, the vibe are so unique , but legendary Chef Franco Antonio creates his unique Shushi magic and his gorgeous wife share their love of food and drinks in an intimate unforgettable evening.“
“Every time we fly to Miami we make sure to reserve a table at Lentrecote and let me tell you after 5 years of coming it never disappoints. I hope that people in Miami know how lucky they are to have this Restautant in their city. I wish they would open one in mine, but till then thanks Lentrecote for always satisfying our Steak Frites dream cravings.“
“I have nothing but amazing things to say about Barcelona Wine Bar and all the staff. After inquiring at a few places to spend my 30th birthday I chose BWB and couldn’t have been happier. My party was for 20+ people which can be quite complicated to cater to and they did such an amazing job at organizing it all, checking in with the entire party as well as myself the whole night to make sure everyone was taken care of. Cristian, our server, was nothing short of attentive and so kind the entire night. Peter the manager was a lifesaver who went above and beyond for me after having a wardrobe malfunction. We ordered white and red sangrias which were delicious and refreshing, ended up getting a few pitchers! The food was amaaaazing, some of the yummiest tapas we’ve had.. the arancini balls with truffle honey omg! We got an assortment of tapas as well as grilled meat platters, salads, paella, and focaccia breads, everything was fresh and definitely cooked with love. There was not one thing, including the desserts that we didn’t like. The food, service, staff, and ambiance were so great and we all had such a nice time. I HIGHLY recommend BWB for anyone looking to have an event or even just dine-in casually. They made my 30th birthday so great, stress-free, and filled with amazing food.“
“For authentic Italian food, this is the place to visit or become a regular! The drinks are spectacular and so unique! The food is outstanding! Everything from the pasta to the desserts is made right in the premises! The bartenders and staff are super friendly and knowledgeable! Highly recommend! Paige & Marco (bartenders) are outstanding!“
“Everything was fantastic. Excellent service, very nice restaurant and the food and wine exceeded expectations. Everything is cooked from scratch daily and it really shows. We had marvelous bread, an app of fried calamari, shrimp and zucchini with marinara, lobster ravioli, ravioli osso bucco with sage, and cheesecake. All outstanding and very reasonable prices. Highly recommend!“
“This bar has an incredible selection of craft beers from around the world. Whether you're a beer connoisseur or just looking to try something new, they have something for everyone. The staff is passionate and helpful, making it a great place to expand your beer palate.“
“Excellent Spanish food restaurant with a wide variety of wines, exquisite food and attention, the interior design similar to Spain winery and has a large terrace where they present a good flamenco tablao. The prices are very good and the presentation of the dishes is spectacular. Recommended for large and small groups of family!!“
“My girlfriend and I stayed next door at the Confidante (soon to be renovated and reopened as the Andaz) and the front desk recommended this restaurant. We ended up having dinner there in our first and last nights in Miami. It was busy both nights (Thursday and Monday) but we were able to make a reservation. The manager and staff was very friendly. The food — from the complimentary bread to the appetizers, Caprese salad, main course and deserts were excellent. The wine list and drink menu was very good.We also learned that the crispy chicken sandwich and Angus Beef Cheeseburger we had for lunch on the beach for thee days came from the restaurant. Both were excellent and available for dining in and would be excellent choices for someone that doesn’t want the Italian items.Lastly, the restaurant, like EVERY OTHER restaurant we ate at in Miami adds a 20% service charge. We still added 10% to make sure our waiter(s) knew we appreciated their service as we had heard at other restaurants the wait staff does not get all of the 20%.“
“The food was amazing, the ambience was outstanding and the service was very professional, since we came in the from the buss boys and the manager, our server Marco made our experience a 10/10 and the hospitality from the manager Joan was perfect. Excellent place I highly recommend it!“

“I had a fantastic experience at Flame House Lounge! The ambiance was cozy and inviting, with comfortable seating and dim lighting that created a relaxing atmosphere. The staff was friendly and attentive, always ready to assist with flavor recommendations and make sure the coals were burning perfectly. The hookah flavors were top-notch, and they had an extensive menu to choose from. I particularly enjoyed the seafood salad bowl option. Plus, they had a great selection of beverages to complement the hookah. I'll definitely be returning for another enjoyable evening at Flame House Lounge. Thanks.“
“The Aloo Gobi was delicious and our server Jessica was very sweet and accommodating. It’s now my go-to Indian restaurant here in South Florida.Vegetarian options: They have a vegetarian section in their menu, as well as a vegan section.Dietary restrictions: It has a lot of vegetarian options and they can make it nut-free, soy-free, and gluten-free.“
“Amazing and friendly staff. Excellent food! My boyfriend and I love coming here to enjoy a nice and affordable meal together. All of the food is great, I recommend starting with an appetizer, then trying the Pad See Ew, and finish with the best Lychee in town!“
“My first time at this unassuming spot. Felt like a house party in all the right ways. Service was friendly. The crowd fun and not aggressive. The music energetically chill. They had a few bar and food areas scattered around. It was perfect night to enjoy their outdoor stage. Inside they had a different vibe going on, with a DJ set vs a live act outside. I'd definitely make my way back.“
“Excellent selection of wine, spirits, beers etc. the staff are incredible, very welcoming, helpful and knowledgeable. I’ve found unique whiskeys, mezcals and wines in there. It’s my go to for wine. They host tastings some evenings and always offer to order in whatever you like. A real local treasure.“
“Amber is definitely one of the most wholesome people I’ve met! She’s not only friendly but your best friend Even if you’re just passing by make sure to say hello!! Her frozen sangria is a MUST to get!! Amber will forever have my business and support! 13 years strong and I can see why!! “

“Little hidden spot in Hallandale. The service was above and beyond. I ordered the gnocchi and they were spectacular. I was stuffed midway and wanted to keep eating them. My husband ordered the rack of lamb and they were delicious. I live an hour away. I stopped by before going to watch a show. I will definitely be back. They have a great selection of wine as well. Our waiter was so friendly. We forgot to get his name.“
“I had the best experience at this facility. The wines are very rich, customer service was at an all time high. This is the best place to hang out with your friends and loved ones to have a drink and close the evening. The staff is very friendly, attentive and I would definitely recommend to anyone.“
“My recent visit to Cafe Avanti was nothing short of delightful. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted warmly by the staff, setting the tone for a wonderful evening. The ambiance of the restaurant was charming and inviting, creating the perfect atmosphere for a memorable dining experience.Now, onto the food – absolutely outstanding! Each dish was expertly crafted with fresh, high-quality ingredients, bursting with authentic Italian flavors. I particularly enjoyed the [mention standout dishes or specialties], which were exquisite. The presentation of the dishes was also impeccable, adding to the overall dining experience.Furthermore, the service was impeccable throughout the evening. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable, and eager to ensure that every aspect of our meal was enjoyable.Overall, I can't recommend Cafe Avanti highly enough. Whether you're looking for a romantic dinner for two or a gathering with friends and family, this restaurant exceeds expectations on every level. I'll definitely be returning soon!“
“I drink detox juices all the time. But this one I drake today was the most tasty and refreshing one. JACKIE was very kind, nice and polite. Recommended me the number 2 Live Juice and it came out spectacular. And price was very reasonable considering that in most places they charge $14-$17 for a 16 ounce cup. BEST JUICE BAR EVER!!!“
