Arroz con Mariscos, Ojo de Bife, Pão de Queijo
Kenneth J.

Atmosphere: 4/5 Food: Flavor: 4.5/5 Presentation: 4/5 Service: 4.5/5 Value: 3.5/5 Anniversary dinner. If you're a table of two be prepared awkward seating arrangements. Places like this make sure to prioritize their cash cows, aka larger parties. The live music is a plus. Will say that I was charged twice for an item that was sent back, didn't notice until days later and management reversed the transaction with no issues. We were seated in the main lounge. Will be back to try out the rooftop.

Raw Chicken Hamachi

Definitely not SLAMMMMMIN! Another MID Miami restaurant... so is the Rainforest Cafe for adults??? LOL! Drinks are $25 plus! Fooooood is super mid mid! Service is ok. Interior design the only thing that we we're missing were the animal noises LMAO check out the pics and I'll explain the cheese balls from COSTCO, the paella 1-5 a "3" star, and the hamachi felt like eating raw chicken SMH! Take it from me a foodie for ten years plus? It's MID!

Fun spot with friends! Pricey but seemed almost like an amusement park with all the Fabius sections and ushering to get into different areas. I liked the rooftop and lounge. The rooftop closed fairly earlier than the rest. Service was average. Drinks were well crafted.

It's beautiful and has a nice vibe. First floor was a more quiet vibe and second floor was a louder, bar feel. They have live singers and a live dj which I liked. The food though .... Insanely overpriced, tiny portions, and overall so average. The yuca truffle fries were amazing I really liked those. Spicy mayo that comes with it also yummy. The beef tartare was good but not wow. The salmon sushi roll was not good at all. Did not like it. The rice with duck was good but not a lot of food. Pornstar martini was good. Overall wouldn't recommend. $200 later and we left hungry ......

Absolutely amazing food and experience! Enjoyed the $65 Miami Spice dinner menu on a Sunday evening. All 3 courses were served quickly and they were delicious. The host and servers are polite and attentive. Great decor (great for photos) and vibe. Highly recommend!

Amazonico! What an absolute gorgeous restaurant located in Brickell. Literally every level was an experience. The first floor was the bar and indoor/outdoor dining area. Although it was beautifully decorated, we only took photos on this level and chose to sit upstairs because it's open air and it was a rainy and humid night in Miami. I was celebrating my birthday with a few friends and the lounge on the second level was perfect. Loved the vibe for dinner on this floor and there was live music which was fun, lovely and entertaining . It was a very busy Saturday so they gave us a 2 hour table limit even with reservations. The service was great and food was delicious. Our server made some great recommendations. The drinks were good and fancy but the speciality cocktails were full of ice. For starters, we had the Rollito Samosa chicken rolls and Camarones Melosos. We also had the Arroz Chaufa, Merluza Negra, Ojo de Bife and Pargo Salvaje snapper. My favorites were the shrimp, duck fried rice and steak. After dinner, we went upstairs to the outside rooftop bar and once Selva (club) opened, we had a few cocktails in there. Overall a great evening at Amazonico. You can literally enjoy a full night there, starting with dinner and ending with dancing at Selva. I will definitely be back!

This is one of the most beautiful restaurants in Brickell. The decor is absolutely stunning, and you can tell every detail has been carefully curated, from the plates to the cocktail glasses. The atmosphere alone makes it worth visiting. The service was fantastic. Everyone we interacted with was incredibly kind and accommodating. Definitely make a reservation ahead of time because they fill up quickly, we booked ours over a week in advance. We also loved the second-floor lounge, where we caught the Argentina vs. Switzerland FIFA match, and later checked out La Selva upstairs, which was a fun way to end the night. The cocktails were excellent! The Peacock Spritz was my favorite, and the espresso martini was also delicious. The food was flavorful as well, especially the beef dish we ordered, it was incredibly tender. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is the value. I understand it's Brickell, so I expected premium prices, but I don't think the food portions justify them. The guacamole, for example, was delicious but came in a tiny bowl with only a few plantain chips for $26. Most of the dishes we tried were very good, but not exceptional enough to justify the price, especially considering the portion sizes. Knocking even $5-10 off some of the dishes would make the experience feel much more reasonable. Overall, I'd definitely come back for the beautiful atmosphere, great drinks, and outstanding service, just be prepared for the prices.

Table guacamole and Brazilian cheese bread
Melissa B.

Exceptional customer service before we even stepped foot inside! I wanted to write this review because my experience with Amazonico started long before we arrived, and their customer service genuinely impressed me. Making a reservation was very easy, but I do recommend reading the credit card policy carefully. I initially missed the fine print and didn't realize that cancellations within the required timeframe are $50 per person, not per reservation. For our party of three, that meant I was expecting to lose $150. Unfortunately, our incoming flight was canceled, and because the restaurant doesn't open until 6 p.m., I couldn't reach anyone before the cancellation window closed. I emailed the reservation contact anyway, hoping for the best. To my surprise, within about three hours a very kind representative personally called me back and modified our reservation. She absolutely didn't have to do that, and I had already accepted that I'd probably be out the $150. That level of customer service made a lasting impression before we ever walked through the doors. She also took the time to clarify the family policies, which I found a little confusing on the website. The restaurant and lounge are separate spaces. Guests under 21 are welcome in the restaurant but not in the lounge. Children under 10 are asked to dine before 7 p.m., while children over 10 are welcome in the restaurant at any time. That clarification was incredibly helpful for planning our evening. As for the food, I'll keep it brief since plenty of other reviews cover it in detail. The tableside guacamole was excellent--don't skip the finishing salt, because it really brings all the flavors together. The Brazilian cheese bread was so good that we ordered a second basket. I had the Chilean sea bass, which was very good, and paired it with the carrots and broccolini. Since most entrées are à la carte, I'd definitely recommend ordering sides if you have a healthy appetite. The vegetables were a generous portion and were delicious. My child ordered sushi, which was good as well. One thing to know before you go is that the menu can take a little deciphering if you're unfamiliar with some of the ingredients or dishes, and younger diners may have a harder time deciding what to order. The atmosphere is beautiful and energetic, but on the lower level it is very loud. If you're going for the ambiance, live music, and lively vibe, you'll probably love it. If you're hoping for an intimate dinner or meaningful conversation, just know you'll likely be talking over the music most of the evening. For three people, including appetizers, entrées, sides, and drinks, our bill came to just under $300. Keep in mind that a 20% service charge is automatically added and goes to the servers and waitstaff, so factor that into your budget. Overall, while the food and atmosphere were enjoyable, the standout part of our experience was the outstanding customer service. The way they handled an unexpected travel issue earned my trust, and that's the reason I'll gladly return.

Asado de costilla-delicious
Sabrina S.

Located near Brickell City Centre, Miami's Amazónico's location (also in Monte Carlo, Dubai, Madrid) has a beautiful atmosphere and a live band each evening. There's a lounge on the second floor and a club, Selva, on the third floor. FOOD: Appetizers: Hamachi Crocante-good Salmon Tiradiro (not wild caught)-good Amazon salad-very good (not your typical salad-no lettuce or greens) Entree: Asado de costilla-delicious! Dessert: Creme de Choclo was good, not too sweet Rio Caribe was ok. SERVICE: If you're interested in the Miami spice menu, be sure to ask for it because our server gave us regular menus without the miami spice option. Our server, Jose, was not warm or friendly. He lacked eye contact during some communication and seemed disinterested. He was inattentive and at some point another person started serving us. We thought that was our new server. That person, Movi, was very friendly, kind, and even went out of his way to answer one of my questions. At the end of our night, Jose finally came back at the time of the bill and for the first time asked one attentive question (how our dessert was). Danielle the bartender was so friendly and welcoming. Important bathroom tips: There is one bathroom at this restaurant and it's upstairs. Bathroom door lock is very tricky, double check it's locked. FYI: There may be an unusual amount of women taking many pictures of themselves at this restaurant. Parking: Valet $30-depending on what time you leave, there's a long wait to get your car. There's also a parking garage in the same building of the restaurant.

Wild snapper
Angela N.

I was here shortly after it opened for a private event which was phenomenal. Food and service were excellent. We had cocktails and appetizers on the rooftop and then we were seated inside for dinner. I decided to bring my friend back this past weekend and definitely a different experience. Our server was efficient but not the most helpful. We asked if the tonic could be swapped out for soda and he said that none of the cocktails could be altered. I asked if they were batched and he said no - they just won't make changes. Super odd. The ensalada Amazonica was delicious. My friend ordered the guacamole as she saw it go by but didn't realize it had sea urchin. The sea urchin was putrid and acrid - definitely NOT Japanese sea urchin. We had to send it back - it was putrid. The best part of the meal was the wild snapper and rosemary potatoes. Unfortunately our server did not know how to filet the fish properly so we had a lot of bones. I gave 3 stars for the live music, ambience and my previous experience. This visit killed any positive experience for me. Won't be coming back. I live on the beach and wasn't worth the drive. Good for cocktails if you are staying nearby.

I didn't love this and actually returned it. The bread was way too hard.

Went here for dinner with my girls and we did the Miami spice menu. I thought my mocktail was so good! The food was good too. I really enjoyed the avocado salad and the short ribs. The chocolate cake was very rich and tasted alright. However, the creme brûlée was muchhh better. Amazonico is definitely nice inside with a cool ambiance, very earthy, jungle, Amazon feeling! There's also live music, lots of space and floors. Our waiter was cool too. However, he suggested a $55 drink for my friend without highlighting the cost which I thought was weird. We did the Miami spice menu for $65 and her drink was $55. We felt like some transparency should've done but oh well. Cute spot, probably would go back? Not sure but def think it should be experienced. Also, they're very strict with reservations. Card on file to book and you legit have like 1.5-2 hours to eat before they're rushing you to leave because there's another party waiting to be seated.

Absolutely beautiful restaurant. The design is tropical, there's indoor and outdoor seating, and even a rooftop bar. We visited for the first time for an anniversary dinner part for some friends. The food was very good. It was family style in a sense where everything was shared and you had small bites of a variety of dishes. The servers looked a little stressed and unorganized. They were very nice but we're running around. The team did not seem well coordinated. The seating was also very tight. They gave us nice menus to explain the courses but then did not bring out all of the food listed on the tasting menus...which were personalized to our party. After our dinner they made us move to some high bar stools. It was very tight. There qas a dj playing super loud music on the 2nd floor and the place gets packed. The music was good, but its an odd vibe for a restaurant. Definitely a bit over hyped and people come here for the ambiance and "Miami Experience". As a local, likely not a place that I would come back to unless someone else was paying.

Amazing restaurant from entrance to exit. It truly feels like you're in the Amazon when you're here. The decoration is so gorgeous from the plates with the animals to the greenery everywhere. The live band is a great touch for a romantic dinner or just a birthday dinner. This service was outstanding some of the best service I've ever had at a restaurant. They were very attentive and recommended amazing dishes. We tried almost everything on the menu and all of it did not disappoint. My absolute favorite were the ceviche and the salad as well as the tuna Toro with caviar. As far as the entrées, the tomahawk steak was tender and with great flavor and all the sides that we got were delicious from the vegetables to A rice with seafood. The wine pairings that the Somlier recommended were also great and all the cocktails we had were awesome. I would return any day! It's also great that they have a lounge on the second floor and a rooftop on third floor on this specific date that became the rooftop was closed due to the rain, but I have been to it before and it is truly an awesome experience with the view of Brickell and the aesthetics of the bar being exquisite. The lounge area is very nice to unwind and have a few more cocktails and just enjoy and people watch and listen to the DJ and the music. There's also a club on that second floor, which they opened that day at 10:30 PM or 11 PM. We were unable to go in because of that time was when we had to leave.

The Lasseter is one of (I think) two bars within Julia & Henry's, the new food hall in Miami…read more There are a ton of options that look great. I think they fit Miami well, and are slight twists in classic drink options. Our bartender was awesome. She was super knowledgeable and helpful in making recommendations as we decided what to order, and you can tell she really put effort into making sure the drinks were good. The drinks were really good! My only complaint is the price. Of course handcrafted cocktails are expensive, especially in Miami, but wow. The drinks were really small, and had so much ice that they ended up being not very many sips at all. They were definitely good, but the very small size for almost $20 a drink was kind of outrageous.

No pressure !! :(…read more With such an amazing and innovative decor, dazzling bar and great vibes, my sibling, husband and I knew this was the place to be to enjoy ourselves with some drinks! The bar was lit, poppin' and vibrant. We were waiting by the end of the counter where they checked out other patrons near the sitting area. We were overlooked many times... I locked eyes with one of the bartender and she completely looked away from me.. several times :( took about 15 minutes and we reached our arms out and flagged bartender Reilly. Her greeting and attention was genuine so I was happy to get her. Unfortunately, she got busy and we got the initial lady that ignored us. She was not kind, not attentive and didn't really want to help us - she was very fake. With that being said, we had to remind her of our drinks after 20 minutes of placing the order, in which she responded with an attitude "it's being made. We're busy" -_- -_- :( the attitude was not needed. We watched others that came in before us being served. :( I was completely annoyed and upset. She didn't even bring the drinks to us like the other bartenders were doing, she made us get it. Poor service from this one bartender while the others were happy and servicing their patrons. After our first drinks, I noticed she spoke to her colleague and he came over and asked if we wanted to close out.. . Wtf kicking us out? We said no and he opened a tab. When she noticed we were ordering more, she was a bit more attentive. So wrong. Luckily, the drinks were delicious. Perfect. We did end up coming back to the Lasseter and got a gentleman bartender that was so kind and attentive and made our drinks even better! The attention to detail and love he made in my drinks, so that is why I decided to make make this a 3 stars rather than two. He saved this place. The toilet sitting area is very warm, not very air conditioned properly so expect to be a little warm especially after a couple of sips. It's also the walkway to an actual big restrooms for the whole building. The drinks are VERY pricy but the setting is perfect and makes up for it. Unfortunately, the service was not up to par. Disney priced drinks without the Disney customer service. Do I want to come back? Yes. Am I going to be picky with the vibes coming from the bartender and chose who to go to? Also yes. Hopefully, I can increase the rating.

The biggest thing for me was the overall energy and engagement from the staff. I'm naturally a pretty social and engaged person, especially when I'm sitting at a bar, and I made an effort to interact with the bartenders. I just didn't really feel that same engagement coming back. Nobody was necessarily rude or disrespectful--it just felt disconnected, and the energy was a little strange to me. I also didn't realize until I tried to pay that the bar doesn't accept cash. Maybe that was posted somewhere and I missed it, and once they told me, it wasn't a big deal. But little things like that, combined with the overall interaction, affected the experience. Another thing I didn't realize until receiving my check was that gratuity was already included. I wasn't verbally told about it, and I personally didn't see it disclosed anywhere beforehand. From my understanding, an automatic gratuity or service charge is required to be disclosed to the guest before the purchase, not something they should only discover when they receive the check. Maybe there was a notice somewhere that I missed, so I'm not saying there wasn't one, but I definitely wasn't aware of it. I think that's an important thing for guests to know upfront, especially because someone could easily add another tip without realizing gratuity was already included. Ironically, the one person I genuinely connected with and had a good conversation with was another guest at the bar, not a member of the staff. That interaction actually helped make my time there more enjoyable. For me, hospitality is about more than serving a drink. Especially when someone is clearly open, friendly, and trying to engage, that's an easy opportunity to create a connection and turn a first-time guest into someone who wants to come back. I felt like I gave plenty of opportunities for that interaction, but it just never really happened. I still had a good time because I can have a good time pretty much anywhere, and nothing happened that would make me say Lost Boys is a bad bar. It just didn't feel like the staff cared much about enhancing the experience beyond serving the drinks. So four stars because I respect what the place is and can see why it works as a neighborhood bar. It just didn't give me a reason to come back, and personally, I don't think I would.

The speakeasy atmosphere is outstanding--walking through the iconic red phone booth feels like stepping into another era, only with much better bourbon. Victoria was an absolute rockstar. She took some fantastic photos of our group (which is no small feat after a couple of perfectly made Manhattans), anticipated everything we needed, and somehow managed to make us feel like regulars on our first visit. Speaking of Manhattans... they're exactly the way we like them: balanced, boozy, and dangerously easy to order "just one more." Pair that with a great cigar, comfortable seating, and an atmosphere that somehow feels both upscale and relaxed, and you've got one of the best spots in Miami to unwind. We came for a drink. We stayed for the cigars. We left wondering if we should install a red phone booth at home. We'll definitely be back--and hopefully Victoria will still be there to remind us that "one more Manhattan" is always a questionable life decision.

Anywayssss, when I caught the winds that there was a new sound bar in downtown, I NEEDED to be there. The concept of the sound bar is some type of Asian thing, I don't really know. But where in Asia there might be a few monks sitting around in silence listening to gongs or whatever, Miami goes BIG! Finding parking in downtown Miami on a Saturday is virtually impossible unless you bribe a valet servant with cash. So that's what I did. My ladyfriend and I arrived early to the sound bar, and there was already a hearty swarm of brodents and thots lined up to get in. Some crack head outside was shouting about IPA's. I told the door servant that I knew the DJ or something like that, and he let us right in. Once inside, the bar has that edgy big city, small hallway type of vibe. You could barely stand around in there, let alone get to the bar to order a drink. The mix of flapping gums and mixologists concocting cocktails made for a cacophonous distraction from the actual "music" we were there to "listen" to. My ladyfriend and I ducked out across the street to Black Market Miami Bar where the game was on and you could actually order a drink that didn't cost $50+. After a few libations, we headed back to Miami Sound Machine Bar (they need to put 'Miami' in every bar's name down here in case you forget where you are). There was a weird looking guy playing depressing vinyls with singing in different languages. I was more in the mood for something upbeat and groovy like salsa or merengue that I could dance to with my girls. Although I did hear the 12" Andrew Weatherall remix of Happy Mondays "Hallelujah" at some point, a staple at the Haçienda nightclub in Manchester - an institution that shook the music world and changed club culture forever. The head servant at the bar looked like Nirvana (yes, one man looking like a whole band). He was jaded and rude. I don't blame him! As the night wore on, the crowd got larger and more deplorable, and the room got smaller and smaller. I got stuck in an awkward conversation waiting to use the bathroom. I don't think sound bars are for me. Pros: The bar across the street had really fair drink prices, and the servants are polite and efficient. Cons: the ratchet yuppies that inhabit Miami's nightlife, always on the prowl to ruin a subculture with their tackiness.

Solid vibes at Miami Sound Bar. We were downtown Miami…read morelast night with a an extra hour so I suggested we stop over to this spot. We got there as it opened. I know it normally books up most nights so I figured if we got early we could snag a couple spots. My plan worked. We had a very nice bartender who got things going. We both got a creative drink from there menu. The DJ arrived the same time as us so he was just getting set. We were there long enough to hear him blend in about 5+ songs. I was digging how he was shaping the set from some chill song to some that had some pep. It was just long enough to know that next time we are done this way I think we will check out the Sound bar again.

Rosa Sky is a beautiful rooftop venue. After our group got turned down from another place a few…read moreblocks down, we went here, which was the original plan. The bouncers outside were nice to us, and the line to get in was not too bad. There is only one elevator going up, but it's just a short ride up. Once we got up, the music is loud, the lights are going, it's dark, and it's packed. All great signs of a solid and popular spot. I don't drink alcohol anymore, but my friends were able to get attention pretty quickly from the bartenders. There was a section there where I felt like I was being packed like sardines, but once we moved we were in comfortable spot. My feet started killing me since I wore heels the whole night, so to my delight, I found out there was an area to sit, and that pretty much saved my feet from falling off. The rooftop is such a vibe. We were able to get a section with a table by the balcony railing and see the downtown area in all it's glory with the lights and the Brickell sign in the background. It was thee perfect spot for photos, and we took advantage of it and had our mini photoshoot there on the spot. I was rather surprised that this place started to shut down by 2 am, I had the impression that FL goes until 5 in the morning, but it was no big deal since we were starting to wind our evening down anyways. I am thankful we got to experience going here, it truly made our night special for our bride to be.

The Mule is a standout, and the White Cloud (gin, sake, lime, and yuzu foam) was lovely. For food, the buffalo chicken empanadas were tasty. I'd skip the pork bao buns, as the meat was overcooked, but our server easily swapped them for the hamachi crudo, which was fantastic. ​Service was very pleasant, and the music set a great vibe at the perfect volume. Overall, it is a great rooftop spot that I would recommend.
