“Rice Kitchen located on US1 in Miami is a hidden gemstone. The food is consistently delicious and the service is always top notch. The employees are very friendly, knowledgeable and always aim to please. I consistently order from uber eats and call to confirm the order, each time employees such as Edgar and other staff are so polite and helpful. Definitely recommend this restaurant !“

“After being recommended this place from a friend, we were hoping it would be the goto location in Miami Lakes, although pricey. Unfortunately, the meat was raw and the onions were rotten. Will not return.“

“I find myself coming back to this restaurant more and more. The service is excellent, the food consistently delicious, and the ambiance strikes that perfect balance — elegant without being snobby. It's one of the few places in Miami where you can enjoy dinner with noise levels that allow good conversation with soft jazz in the background. Favorite dishes: Halibut Croquettes, Frijolada de Mariscos, and Filet Mignon.“

“My friend and I stumbled upon this place and we are so happy we did! We had the chicken shawarma sandwiches and hummus. That is the best chicken shawarma sandwich I’ve ever had!! I crave it weekly. I’ve gone back several times and everyone I bring loves it also. Definitely check it out!“

“My group had a wonderful time at ZOI Restaurant today lunch time. There were 10 of us celebrating 2 Birthday’s. From the large free parking lot to the entrance, gorgeous orchids growing on the lush trees greet you. The outdoor garden patio seating area where we dined is magical, and the seats are so plush and comfortable. It’s an unexpected botanical garden of palms, cycads, orchids, and bromeliads surrounding large lagoons. The Mediterranean /Greek food is wonderfully delicious, especially the variety of Mezzes that I had. The grilled Octopus and Lamb Chops were sensational. ZOI has developed the perfect mix of food, intimacy, and culinary expertise. Management spoiled us with pampering and great service. This place was so much fun, we didn’t want to leave.“

“Bahia at the Four Seasons Miami stands as a culinary gem, offering an unforgettable dining experience that tantalizes the senses. From the moment you step into this oasis, the warm and attentive service sets a tone of unparalleled hospitality. The journey begins with a delightful array of dips, featuring the creamiest hummus and a rich, smoky babaganoush, each bursting with authentic flavors. The mezze, particularly the falafel, are crafted to perfection, offering a crisp exterior and a tender, flavorful heart that transports you to the streets of the Middle East. As for the main courses, the swordfish kebab and gambas al forno are masterpieces. The swordfish, grilled to a sublime tenderness, harmonizes beautifully with its Mediterranean-inspired marinade. The gambas al forno are a revelation, with each shrimp perfectly cooked and infused with a blend of spices that elevates this dish to new heights. The crescendo of this culinary symphony is the dessert – a heavenly baklava paired with lemon ice cream. The baklava, with its layers of flaky pastry, nuts, and honey, provides a textural contrast to the refreshing and tangy lemon ice cream, culminating in a dance of sweet and citrus on the palate. The ambiance of Bahia complements its cuisine flawlessly, blending elegance with a relaxed Mediterranean charm. Every detail, from the decor to the lighting, creates an environment that enhances the overall dining experience. Bahia is not just a restaurant; it is a destination where every dish tells a story, each bite is a celebration, and the service is as memorable as the food. A visit to Bahia at the Four Seasons Miami is an indulgence for the soul and a feast for the senses.“

“The hard part is entrance. You go through a gate, to the end to a guest parking then enter the building and turn right then left. After a confusing entrance there is a very quiet restaurant with nice spacing, great for having conversations. Server was great and helpful with choosing appetizers, entrees and wine. Pasta was on-point and very balanced. All in all, a great place for both a romantic date or a business dinner. Will return.“

“I love coming here. It’s delicious and fresh! I like everything I’ve tried in the menu. I’ve eaten in and taken out. My favorite is the chicken kabob with black lentils and a Greek salad and hummus.

They also have a great rewards program. I visit weekly. If you want fresh, healthy, delicious food, this is the place.“

“LOVE IT!“

“This unique restaurant made me feel not only comfortable, but well served as if I were a queen. From the environment, to the dancers, and even our waiters. We truly felt like Jasmine from the movie Aladdin. The food was EXOTIC, delicious, and one of a kind. After sipping on a while bottle of red wine I opted for the espresso for dessert and let me tell you.... best coffee I have ever tasted in South Florida. Can't thank the warming staff for keeping this place one of my number one restaurants in Florida! Oh and this was at the Hallandale location, can't imagine the Miami spot. ALSO, please sit outdoors! It's picture heaven for any content creator. Thanks again Jaffa! Keep shinning on.“
