Had a couple of drinks with my boyfriend as the sun was setting.
Gorgeous view outside on the balcony and from inside the restaurant as well.
High quality ingredients for the drink, I didn’t think they were expensive for the level of quality, about $18 or $19 per cocktail if I recall?
They appear to have an awesome Tuesday date night deal, sorry I don’t know the details!
Outside on the balcony there was a high pitched buzzing noise being emitted near constantly that was incredibly annoying and almost made us leave at first but the sunset was so pretty that we decided to just ignore it as much as possible. I think that the noise was for protecting birds from flying into the windows and might be a state law requirement so not much to do about that.
Valet parking out front, it’s up a driveway so street parking is a little further out
Overall a very nice experience, the food sounded appetizing but I wasn’t hungry at the time unfortunately :/
Amazing views.

This will be the second time we have dined at this restaurant. First time was amazing and was our favorite. Second time, we won't go back.
Service definitely not the issue. We had the same waiter both times and he is amazing. Issue must be management and chef. The menu has really changed with less choices and less quality.
Prices went through the roof. We were there for 5 nights and picked a fine dining option every evening. Baleen was our least favorite and most expensive this trip.
It's fairly difficult to find. It's inside Sole Miami resort.

Came here for my husband’s birthday while we were staying at Solé. The food is phenomenal. The shrimp ajillo, kids cheeseburger, and wild mushroom pizza were excellent. Beautiful decor and pretty empty

The food was great but the service was below good standard. Waited 40 minutes for an egg omelet with potatoes. Waited 30 minutes for yogurt and fruit. And had to get a Manager to see why I didnt get my Omelet way after we had our food served. No waiters came to see how we were doing or to see if we needed anything else. Only after I complained did manager ask us if we were ok.
Other than that, food was delicious.
Service needs to improve a lot.

I sadly have to give a thumbs down and I hardly ever give bad reviews. Everywhere else in Miami Beach was very attentive but we made a reservation here as had just pulled into town for 3 days before our cruise. I am sure the food was good but we were never served. We waited quite a while and only rec'd water but it seemed like others were getting attention then when the waiter finally came they asked if we were ready with no mention of specials or anything like that. We wanted Mimosas and asked if they had champagne since it wasn't listed on our wine/drink menu and he said they did but could not give us a price of the bottle. We asked again to be sure. I can't imagine purchasing a bottle of anything without knowing the price. It was very strange and I don't think it was a language barrier. We decided to go elsewhere on Mothers Day and did mention our experience to the Manager when we left. The trip did improve greatly afterwards thankfully. I don't think customers should be made to wait that long when a place is not packed with people.
We came to Bhalee ln Kitchen for my husbands birthday and it was amazing. They were so accommodating and also the food was amazing. Jhalyaseen, Trish, and our waitress Zoyum were amazing! Thanks for taking care of us all the way from Palm Harbor Florida!
Never got to eat. Service was terrible. Could not get a wine list. The best thing about it was the valet service, only money spent was in tipping the valet. Reservations were easy on OpenTable.
Had a great experience eating right in the beach. The food was delicious! I highly recommend ordering The bacon cheeseburger, the meat was very good quality and it was delivered right to me on the sand. Luis was super kind and friendly—really made my day. Highly recommend!

Beautiful restaurant with great views. We didn't stay at hotel and it was difficult to find the restaurant. Food very overpriced- I had fish and chips (soggy fries) for $28 & husband had skirt steak (with frites that were rock hard). The drinks were great but expensive. Server was kind. Almost $200. Pretty setting but Def not worth the $$.
I like food delivery to the beach. Good service. Little expensive.
Considering it’s a hotel, the food was very good. We had mahi-mahi tacos.
The best thing was our server Luis Balboa, really attentive .
Great place, but not to much to choose from the menu it's basic..
6pm reservations for family with 2 small children. Dinner took 50 min from order to delivery. Our waiter never checked to see if we wanted more cocktails or if the food tasted good. The steak was over cooked and didn’t look or cut like a fillet . Our waiter was annoyed when I asked for a 2nd cup of coffee. Do not recommend
