Biscuits with good garlic butter

One star because I have to. One star for the oyster and for the cream puffs. I can't tell you how excited I was to experience the chef's table Saint Tropez dining experience tonight. Which is why I am so sorry to have to give this honest review of this mediocre experience they cost me almost $300. I have been wanting to do something special for my best friend and thought I had found the perfect evening. I expected to be wowed. I expected to meet the chef and be able to talk to her about her journey . I expected to drink delicious wine because it is after all a vineyard restaurant. Instead, everything was disappointing, bland, and rushed. Like most life experiences, everything started off beautifully. The oyster dish was very good although I can't tell you all the ingredients that went into it, but it was a nice experience,. Ttat's where it ended. I will go into detail with the pictures that follow. As far as the experience goes, I expected her to take a little bit of time to answer questions or just hang out, but it looked like there was a fire in the kitchen because she had to keep running in and running out. Hoping for minimal interaction? Although they were only eight of us at the table none of the others seemed to have any interest in speaking to each other just speaking amongst themselves about finances and money. I did my best to introduce myself and make conversation but it wasn't a very social experience at all. Thank God I didn't go alone or I'd had been hecka lonely. . As far as the meal goes, I will explain as the pictures follow. All I can say is I do not recommend anyone to spend their money or time on this. If his was the st tropez experience I'd hate to see what the dark dining one was. Carlos Rossi and Chef Boyardee? I feel insulted and frankly believe we deserve better. Chef Adrienne, you let me down

Mini Happy Hr Burgers
Rafael B.

Social occasion late lunch/dinner. Service was OUTSTANDING. A big thank you to Chantel for hosting and making us feel at home. We sat outside with the beautiful view and perfect weather. Started with the bread and i will say by far the BEST bread i have ever eaten at any restaurant ever. The butter spread was amazing and the sweet honey... please never change. The sweet and spicy shrimp was cooked perfectly. The mini burgers tasted like White Castle burgers from NY with a hint of Big Mac sauce, that's the best compliment you can get... amazing. The steak was cooked perfect medium rare - LIKE BUTTA. Melted in your mouth juicy and delicious. Keep up the great service and delicious food, can't wait to come back and try out the brunch menu.

White Chocolate Tres Leches Croissant Bread Pudding
Alexandra S.

This place was absolutely amazing!!! We went for Mother's Day brunch which was priced at a great price for a 3 course meal and the drink options were also very affordable! Favorite dish was the appetizers and the salmon. Must try the bolognese pasta!!! Lastly, the tres leches croissant pudding was DELICIOUS!!! Cold vanilla bean ice cream with a warm dish. Coming to this restaurant very very soon as the service was amazing and everyone was so friendly !

Alexandra R.

First time checking this place out. I usually order the desserts to go because honestly they are amazing. The food was good they had a good lunch special deals I recommend the steak and fries. So good!!! The service was great and the ambiance too. Next time I want to sit outside. Please get The pork wonton chips !

I've been following Chef Adriane for years now from her very first OG location to every new chapter she's opened since. It's been amazing to see her growth, and no matter where she's cooking, the quality and flavor always stay top tier. Tuesday nights are my favorite because of her famous French Onion Soup .. you can only get it on Tuesdays and it's honestly the best I've ever had. It's rich, flavorful, and the portion is huge... easily a full meal on its own and absolutely worth every bite and penny. Tonight, I switched it up and tried the lobster ravioli instead of my usual steak frites and it was fantastic. The brown crusted salmon also deserve some recognition because I'm not even a salmon eater, but it's one of my go-to dishes here. Perfectly cooked, paired with those creamy potatoes and that incredible sauce... truly to die for. If you haven't had her French onion soup here do yourself a favor and make it a Tuesday night tradition!

I just love this place! They have my favorite dessert ever the white chocolate tres leches croissant bread pudding with vanilla bean ice cream, I don't have enough words to describe how delicious it is. I love how intimate and spacious this restaurant is. Last but not least the service is always great.

24-Hour Braised Prime Beef Short Rib - soooooo good!
Marielle J.

Beautiful restaurant inside and outside! The patio has a view of the water. My sister hosted her wedding rehearsal luncheon here. Service and the general manager were super accommodating and attentive! The food is spectacular! My sister and her husband had a set menu and everyone loved their food. I had the 24 hour braised prime beef short rib with sweet potatoes, spinach, au jus, white truffle oil and garlic - such good flavors. The appetizers were solid such as siuna ahi tuna tartare and the crispy panko crusted French goat cheese balls. The white chocolate tres leches bread pudding was out of this world! The BEST bread pudding I've ever had! They took care of us well -- cannot wait to come back in the future!

Whitney J.

I went to Chef Adrienne's Vineyards last night and it was incredible from start to finish. We sat outside on the patio by the water and the weather was perfect -- it made the whole experience feel extra special. The service was on point--attentive without being overbearing--and every single thing I ate was delicious. We had the tomahawk and the truffle mac & cheese, and both were insanely good, but the standout for me was the goat cheese appetizer... absolutely amazing. The drinks were just as impressive and perfectly made. No one at the table had a single complaint, which never happens. I honestly cannot wait to go back.

Chef Adrianne's Vineyard is one of the best things that have happened to Kendall, so this review is a compilation of the many times I have visited. First of all, and referring to my last visit, excellent choice in the martini hour ($8 martinis from 4-7 M-F). I love the martinis here, and I have had my share martinis in Miami, from Caviar Russe (excellent martinis) to the Tea Room (East Hotel, average martinis), I have to say their slightly dirty martinis are amazing! The food is comforting and flavorful, and the staff is always so welcoming. Chef Adrianne's Vineyard is the place you go to share good wine, good cocktails, good food, and possibly avoid the Miami fad. I have to commend their happy hour menu though and the bartenders, what a team! Of course, we will be back

24-Hour Braised Prime Beef Short Rib
Isabella K.

Absolutely fantastic! You know a restaurant is good when it is chef-owned! And Chef Adrienne Calvo is an absolute icon in Miami. This restaurant is located in Town & Country. It is absolute beautifully. Service is great and food is delicious. My waitress Manuela was so sweet and on point. I tried the Tamalito with Shrimp and let me tell you, this is not your average tamal. It was out of this world's good. Also tried the burrata with prosciutto but thought the tamal was more unique. I had the Filet Mignon that came with mashed potatoes and spinach. The jus it came in was delicious. The side of crispy honey Brussels sprouts was amazing! Highly recommend?

Parker House Pull-A-Part Bread
Angelo R.

It's that time of the year when we gather with family and friends at the dinner table to spread Holiday Cheer! And the best place to eat and be merry is @chefadriannesvineyard in Kendall. Led by local celebrity @chefadrianne this beloved restaurant serves exceptional dishes that will impress the most demanding palates. I was so impressed by the quality of the ingredients starting with the Fig Burrata to the Lamb Rack. Even the pull-apart bread alone will make you salivate but her famous French Onion soup is really to die for. But remember, it's only available on Tuesdays but the menu has so much to offer, like Bone Marrow, Pork Belly, Steaks and even Oysters. The Lamb Rack I ordered was cooked to perfection but the Spicy Rigatoni really surprised me. The sauce was on point with the hint of heat. It's was so addictive indeed. And don't skip on their craft cocktails. I highly recommend their Tequila Espresso Martini and also the Praline Old Fashioned if you love whiskey like me. This restaurant was truly remarkable from the service to the food preparation, presentation and quality.

Another great experience at Chef Adrianne's - food was amazing, the onion soup was pretty good- James was out server this time around and he was pretty good, attentive and funny. Ambiance was perfect a day before Xmas full of great energy - great times!

Bell & Evans Chicken Supreme
Samantha B.

Came here for Mother's Day brunch and it did not disappoint! I will say we came in knowing it would be a busy service and that the kitchen would likely be backed up. When we got to the restaurant we decided to grab a drink at the bar before our reservation time. My mom and I ordered lychee martinis and they were delicious, perfectly made. When it was time for our reservation we were sat instantly. To start we all ordered the Caesar salad and omg it was delicious. Homemade croutons, the dressing, everything about it was great. As my entree I ordered the brown sugar salon and my mother ordered the Bell & Evan's Chicken supreme. The food took a while to come out as expected but when it did it was great. They weren't hot hot but I chalk that up to the service being slammed and would expect the food to be hot on a regular day. My mother really enjoyed her chicken and I tried it and can say it was cooked perfectly. I didn't love the potatoes underneath the salmon but that wasn't a big deal to me. The fish was good and the presentation was beautiful. For dessert we ordered three different ones so we could try them all. We got the dark chocolate and Nutella croissant bread pudding, the white chocolate tres leches croissant bread pudding and the pavlova. All three were great but I think the pavlova was the best. So light and not overly sweet. Overall, we had a wonderful brunch here. You can tell everyone was working really hard to make it a successful brunch service.

I visited the restaurant on a Saturday, we were a group of 9, including 3 kids ages 4, 6 and 11 and we didn't have a problem. We had an amazing time.

You need to order through a delivery service...such as Uber, Doordash, Knock Knock, etc.

I didn't see or notice one but I don't think that at this time they may be offering it because of limited seated. I would call them. Enjoy!

yes you could, as long as they dont carry on their menu, or at least a different year , enjoy

First entree came out in 10 minutes. 5-10 minutes later the second entree came (it was toasted bagels with their accompaniments on a tower... so like the easiest item ever). After waiting about 50 minutes total our final entree arrived... a breakfast pizza. So I guess don't go here if you intend to eat together? Or want hot food. No communication except at the 30 minute mark of waiting a random person came to tell us that the pizza was working. Our server abandoned us, so we never got a second round while waiting almost an hour for our food. She apparently was too busy taking the second table to walk in. No one apologized for the wait on food. None of what we ordered tasted good. I guess with cold food that's hard to judge though. My avocado toast had a full field of micro greens that covered up any other flavor it might have had. I'm sure the crowd of middle aged dinners appreciated the DJ though. Cuz this is Miami and that's how things are done. Slow, inconsiderate, and loud.

The first bar we tried didn't work out (long story) and my husband mentioned having seen an interesting bar next to Pisco y Nazca where we had been a few times. So off we went. It was around 9:00 pm, and there was only like one other couple there. My understanding is it's more of a club vibe later so that's prob why. It is all outdoors with a bar across the back. It looked nice and was decorated for Christmas. We chose to stand at the bar instead of sitting at a table which seemed to have service. We ended up ordering a cocktail each (amaretto sour and mojito). There weren't any prices on the menu (except for the specialty cocktails which they were out of). Our total for the two drinks came to $42! So I paused and asked if the tip had already been added, and the bartender sort of mumbled something about "no", so I asked if the drinks were actually $20 each. (I mean, we're in Kendall, not South Beach!) So then he showed me the receipt that showed the drinks were $16.50 each and an auto grat of 20%+ had already been added. I did not add an additional tip on top of that. But the experience was in line with some of what I read here (afterwards) of them being a little scammy financially. I'd give it 1 star but the drinks were fine and I could see the vibe being fun once more people showed up.

When he finally took our order, he barely listened. I asked for a classic Old Fashioned and he brought me something that tasted like watered-down whiskey with too much bitters and a random orange slice thrown in. My friend's whiskey sour was unbalanced -- definitely not worth the $18 price tag. I politely mentioned to recommend us another drinks options he just shrugged and said "we don't have that" Not offer another choice or an apology. The drinks were mediocre at best, but his attitude made it worse. He ignored us most of the night and acted annoyed every time we ordered. Zero professionalism. The place has a great vibe but with service like this, is not worth to spend almost $200 dollars there for few drinks. I don't remember his name but he was tall, Latin and maybe from Colombia. We just wanted to report his behavior to management but in a Saturday's night you just don't want to ruined more. Next.

The surprise star of the meal was the Brussels sprouts. These are hands down some of the best I've had at a restaurant. The combination of savory ham, sweet jam, and tangy blue cheese sauce worked beautifully. If you're a blue cheese fan, do not skip this one! For dessert, we shared the Beauty Cake.

It was a busy night, so I understand they were getting a lot of traffic, but they could have used a quick check-in and cleaning during service. Overall, it was a wonderful experience with great food, attentive service, and a fun atmosphere. Looking forward to coming back and working my way through more of the menu.

Excellent. Was quoted a wait time of 20 minutes was sat in 15…read more Food was excellent. Had the board with different grilled items and all were exceptional except for the pork loin. It was a little dry. All in all a great dining experience and would highly recommend.

Last night, Friday night, was my birthday weekend, and although I've never been one to make a big…read moredeal about celebrating my birthday, Erika B wanted to take me out to dinner and suggested Carnicero Restaurant in Kendall. Looking back, I couldn't have asked for a better place to spend the evening. When we arrived, there was a huge line of people waiting, which is usually a sign that something special is happening inside. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by a friendly hostess with a beautiful smile who assured us the wait would only be about 30 minutes. We decided to grab a couple of seats at the bar while we waited, and that's when the evening started feeling extra special. The bartender welcomed us with a smile and the very first words out of his mouth were, "Happy Birthday!" To this day, I'm not sure how he knew, but it immediately made me feel welcomed and appreciated. We enjoyed glasses of the house red wine, a wonderful Ribera del Duero from Spain, and shared an order of beef croquettes that were absolutely amazing. True to their word, about 30 minutes later, the bartender personally escorted us to our table. Our server, Iliana, introduced herself and quickly became one of the highlights of our visit. She was warm, attentive, and genuinely cared about making our experience memorable. We shared the 12-ounce Denver Wagyu steak and the 12-ounce lechón asado, accompanied by moros, plátanos maduros, and tostones. Every dish arrived fresh, perfectly cooked, and bursting with flavor. The quality of the food was outstanding from start to finish. Just when I thought the evening couldn't get any better, the staff surprised me by bringing out a flaming pineapple while singing Happy Birthday. It was such a thoughtful touch and made the celebration feel even more special. Inside the pineapple was a Crema Catalana that was simply incredible and the perfect ending to a fantastic meal. What impressed me most wasn't just the food, it was the people. From the hostess, to the bartender, to Iliana, everyone made us feel genuinely welcome. The restaurant was spotless and beautifully decorated, and for a few hours I felt like I had been transported back to Spain instead of being in Miami. A heartfelt thank you to Erika B for planning such a wonderful evening and to the entire Carnicero team for making my birthday celebration one I'll remember for a long time. Great food, exceptional service, and a warm atmosphere made for a truly unforgettable Friday night. I highly recommend Carnicero and look forward to returning soon.
