We made a reservation prior to coming because in order to make it inside you need to book a reservation. The establishment is small which is why you have to reserve. We came at around 10:45 and our reservation was for 11:00. They sat us down right away. The vibes are chill and cool, there's a dj playing music. It was like house, tech vibes. The music was great and people were enjoying their time. We had 1 cocktail each and went on our way because we just came to check out the spot honestly. I had the fabulous martini which has a purple hue to it, it was very refreshing. I love that they garnish it with a lavender. The espresso martini was made with Don Julio Reposado, and had real fresh espresso as per the menu. It was good but a bit strong too! We had asked for an extra shot of espresso on the side just as a pick me up. But our server told us that it comes cold, which is odd because the menu literally says freshly brewed espresso in the cocktail description. It was fine though, we still enjoyed the drinks. Overall, our experience was nice! If you are ever in the Hialeah area, you should totally check this spot out. They also have bites you can order but we were full from dinner and didn't get a chance to try anything. Definitely have to come back to try some more cocktails and grab some bites!

The food is consistently outstanding--beautifully presented, flavorful, and crafted with real passion. I want to give special recognition to Hotel Manager José, whose leadership clearly elevates the entire guest experience. His professionalism and warm presence make every visit feel personal and memorable. The service team is nothing short of world-class. German, Boston, Maria, Carolina, JP, Mazzie, and Cynthia deliver hospitality at its highest level. Each of them goes above and beyond to make guests feel valued, remembered, and taken care of. Their attention to detail, friendliness, and genuine care are what set Blue Matisse apart from every other restaurant in the area. Whether it's breakfast, lunch, or dinner, Blue Matisse is consistently exceptional. Five stars all the way--and highly recommended to anyone visiting Doral or looking for a phenomenal dining experience.

But right beside are tables of folks who are not a part of club. I was asked each time (breakfast, tea time, and happy hour if I had club lounge access). I started by having lunch here. The burger was really good and priced right at $19. The side of sweet potato fries were really good, German and Caroline were excellent servers at breakfast. German kept an eye on my iced tea and refilled it before I had to ask. I also requested egg whites. I had a couple plates of nice crispy bacon as well. For happy hour, Fernando was a true gem! He made sure I continuously had a glass of water. I enjoyed the club offerings and made friends with other guests. The next evening, Fernando was off and it was noticeable the service was not as attentive. There was a private event outside and people kept walking thru the tables designated for club guests. That was an atmosphere killer - far from "exclusive." This morning, German and Caroline were off. I had to ask to have my iced tea refilled. The check was brought to my table before I had taken my first bite of bacon. I was charged and then the charge taken off at check out. They had not noted I had club lounge access. I would like to try Nau once renovations are finished to the Club Lounge and the main restaurant.

We sat down... waiting... she's doing her make up at the bar. We are waiting.., a guy comes up and talks to her. After about 15 min, I walked over to ask how we can order. I guess you order at the bar; which is fine but you could have let us know instead of us waiting for 15 minutes. I asked about the Mac and cheese after we got It, because it does not say it is Kraft, it says cheddar sauce with parsley.. they gave us heated up Kraft Mac and cheese and added some parsley. The "heated up" great was cold but my daughter ate some, until she found HAIR in it! I told the bartender about the hair... not a word at all, handed me my bill. Not a sorry, oh because "it isn't my fault". I would never return to this hotel due to the bartender and the food. If you can't put a smile on your face and be nice in that line of work, find a new job. ‍

I did try to make a reservation before hand but due to the party size I was unable to make it online and there was no answer when I called. I love how the whole party does not need to be present for us to be seated. Once seated, the waitress came and took our order. We asked her if it was possible to individually split our bill but she indicated she was unable to do that for a party larger than 6 but was going to ask anyways. I think she forgot to ask because she just brought one bill. Thankfully, we were able to pay with no issues. As to the food and drinks. I was impress with their happy hour menu. It definitely has options for everyone. To drink, I tried the margarita. It was good but I could not really taste the pineapple it had. As to bites, I tried the salmon nigiri and it was good. The tuna crispy rice was okay. I've tried better at other places. The pork belly bao buns was delicious and filling and the rock shrimp was very tasty as well. I was pleasantly surprised with the size of the shrimps. The bao bun and shrimp were my favorite of the night. The service was good. I did like how the waitress brought a dessert with a candle without us asking when she realized we were celebrating a birthday. I also enjoyed the live music that they had later on in the night. Overall, I had a blast and will definitely return to try other items on the menu.

Lots of people were dressed up, the drinks were pouring, people were laughing. The ambiance was beautiful. It was good times. The food was good too. I had a Latin Mule cocktail (a twist on the Moscow Mule) which was so good. The perfect drink and I'm still thinking about it. My husband had a Lucky Buddha beer. For app we had Roasted Provoleta. It came out on fire and I didn't realize it was ours or I would have started taking video earlier. By the time I stated the video the flames were petering out. It had an interesting Smokey taste but was good. For dinner I had the Negroni combo and he had the Sashimi combo and we essentially split it all. It was all incredible. The sashimi had such a good flavor. Really everything did. I want to go back for this entire combo of food (but maybe try another app next time not bc it wasn't good but that's the only one I'm not dying to have again). Our server was very friendly but he was way too busy, so service was slow. I was so worried we were going to be late to pick up our child even though we started with plenty of time. He didn't come back to take our order until a little bit after we finished our appetizer. I had to flag him down for our check at the end, and it took literally 20 minutes, no exaggeration, to get our check. The hostesses were not overly kind either.

Was the first time for all of us and I really like when everyone at table is experiencing it for the first time together, definitely adds to the overall vibe/occasion. As we were walking up, they had nicely decorated patio tables, which we learned inside is where Happy Hour is available "all-day", which is music to anyone's ears! It was a Monday so there was plenty of room (we had a reservation either way), and noticed right away that the place didn't feel stuffy (high ceilings) and the decor was very nice. I chose a real nice booth to sit in which had me facing the huge blue bar wall. Aesthetically pleasing and didn't look cheap, which is a plus. My sister and I arrived first, so we went ahead with cocktails while we waited for our cousins to park and walk over. My sister went for traditional margarita but made it Mango, and it was great. I ordered the Mezcalita de Naranja and its was the bomb - I had 3. Would absolutely get again. Once the cousins arrived they went for a red sangria which looked dark and not exactly traditional, and another Mezcalita after tasting it. Thumbs up on the drinks, very well made. The food was very well portioned and everything was delicious. Aside from the entrees pictured we also did an order of steak quesadillas, toro taquitos (raw tuna), and some tequeños. Hard to say if one was really the standout but I chose to toro taquitos and the tuna was fresh, wasn't overly spicy and hit nicely with my drink. Quesadillas were dope too, steak was medium-well. My main was the Molcajete and if you go hungry, will definitely hit the spot right. Great service all around, our server Mildanny made several good recommendations for us, including the dessert which was a hit. Cost for 4 people was pretty reasonable and that's that it was pretty much two drinks per person. Will definitely be back to take advantage of HH!

Flavorful, good presentation, and a solid choice if you're just going in the mood for tacos and drinks. Now, I normally don't order steak at places that aren't steakhouses, but the menu got me and I tried the picanha with rice, beans, and fries. The flavor was good, but it didn't have that signature picanha texture. It also wasn't as warm as it should have been, which took away from it a bit. About half of the cut was fat too, which made it feel less balanced. The guacamole needed a little more seasoning. It wasn't bad, just missing that extra punch. Overall, I still enjoyed the experience. I just think this is more of a tacos and cocktails spot than a place to order steak. Now on the upside, it's hands down the best happy hour experience / pricing in the downtown doral area! And the waitress was really helpful and friendly too. I will be back again, for some tacos and cocktails!

A place that's family-friendly, date-night-friendly, and perfect for a group of friends to hang out and have a good time. Doral Yard is exactly that. It's a hodgepodge of several restaurant booths along with a central bar and plenty of seating options. Everyone can order from a different vendor, which I absolutely love. If you're in the mood for sushi, your kid is craving Spanish food, your significant other wants a burger and fries, and your parents are in the mood for pizza -- there are so many options for every palate. When I went, I ordered from Poke Kai. I had the Tuna Poke Burger -- crispy rice "buns," raw tuna, eel sauce, scallions, cilantro sauce, spicy mayo, Kai salad, avocado, and sesame seeds. So good! My son ordered two sushi rolls: Mauloa Roll - salmon, cucumber, scallion, crab, fried shallots, and unagi mayo. Moana Tuna Roll - tuna, cream cheese, scallion, crab, tempura flakes, togarashi mayo, and lemon zest. My partner ordered from another vendor called YIP. He had miso soup and Peking duck bao. Of course, I also had to try the drinks from the bar (The Bar at The Yard). I ordered: NOT A PEAR IN THE WORLD ($16) - Patrón Reposado tequila, lime juice, Chile Ancho Reyes, prickly pear syrup, and Firewater Tincture bitters. WATERMELON SUGAR ($14) - Hendrick's gin, lime juice, mint, fresh watermelon juice, and simple syrup. Both drinks were super refreshing -- and one definitely had a spicy kick! If you haven't been to Doral Yard yet, please check it out. You will not be disappointed.
