We’ve had their burgers before - some of the best in the whole area. Tonight’s delivery was a bit disappointing: first of all, only by accident we noticed plastic sticks inside the burgers (to keep all the parts together) - they were hidden under the buns - there must be a way for the customer to see it before they take a bite!Second, I ordered my burger (in the picture) as “well done” - but you can tell it wasn’t quite well done. Hope our next order will be up to our expectations.

The food was semi okay but service was horrible. The food came undercooked and not cooked the way it was requested and the waitress was no where to be found and never checked in to see how things are or if we needed anything. Asked for ketchup and 10 minutes latter she comes back saying they are all out of ketchup!! Poor management and service.Will not be going back.

This restaurant is an incredible place to hang out with friends or to eat out with family. Yafit, my server most of the time I go there, is such a lovely worker. She is very kind and makes the best drinks. If you get the chance to go there, you should try the sweet potato fries. They are easily my favorite item on the menu.Parking: It is quite easy to park there. Even though there isn't a parking a lot, parking is still accessible.Kid-friendliness: All foods on the menu are well presented, well cooked, and freshly made. Even though they don't feature a kids menu, most of the menu is kid-friendly. Even if your kid doesn't finish it all (like my brother), the food can be taken home (and I am sure you will want to because the food is very good).Wheelchair accessibility: For wheelchair users like my grandma, this restaurant is very accessible. She was able to easily move around the restaurant and enjoy her experience.

Below average and way too expensive. Had the brisket (not good - very dry, felt like it was old) and beef spare ribs (extremely delicious - these were the savior of the meal). Service was pretty poor (the vibes inside were weird - lots of staff but rarely present). The killer was the price - $150 for just two main courses and one side dish each. I know it’s Kosher but still seems very steep for the quality.This could be an amazing restaurant with some changes to the way things are run. Hoping for the best and would return if someone recommended it had improved.

The service was terrible. The meat tasty but very greasy except for the brisket, which was excellent. The sides were lousy,portions small for everything and prices sky high. It is obvious Mendel is no longer there. Last time…:((((

We came hungry at 730 and the place was mobbed! The line to be seated was out the door. I went outside and made a reservation on my phone for 745. Mitch was totally on top of the situation. Setting up new tables, seating people and cleaning due to the short staff. My wife and I enjoyed the food immensely. Even though they were understaffed and not expecting such a crowd (don't know why) the food came out quickly and cooked perfectly. Mitch even compt our desert because he felt bad we were in a little of a makeshift table and had to wait. Everyone there was having a great time. Just wondering what the name of the Hebrew song you play for birthdays I can't find it?? TYSM

An exceptionally average meal in an exceptionally average restaurant with poor staff. Manager was rude and not interested in having happy customers. 6 diners, all food came at different times. Beer was served after food. There are some phenomenal kosher restaurants in Miami. This is not one of them.There's a reason every other restaurant in Bal Harbour is heaving on a Thursday night and this was empty.
