Step up a few stairs, walk through the main entrance doors and beyond the sofas in the foyer is the entrance which looks more like an entrance to an office. The door gives way to slightly dim warm lighting, which creates an intimate and relaxing atmosphere. I sat at the bar with my husband and heard the bartender, Phillip taking repeated orders of old fashioned and espresso martini. I saw a table polishing glasses and glasses of wines and then came the surprise - their selections! Their selections were smaller than expected but thoughtfully chosen. We asked Phillip for his recommendations, along the lines of red & bold. He gladly pointed us to a wine that was not on the menu. It seems they offer a menu selection and off-menu/rotating selection from unique wine regions. We had a red blend from China (yes that's correct, it surprised me equally). But then I realized, I haven't had wines from most of the regions they offer and the curiosity sets in. Looking forward to explore the menu and off-menu selection. Perfect bar for date night or post dinner drinks and for all the wine explorers out there.

We didn't try the food but I could only imagine it being very good. The service was great Phillip…read moredid a great job recommending different wines and beverages. It was all amazing. I love the dim atmosphere and very quiet.

I've been visiting a lot recently, and even joined their wine club which offers two curated wines a month. Locally owned and operated, I feel really good supporting a place that the owners put so much effort into to offer such a gem of a spot for locals. I've tried a lot of wines here, and I'm always amazed at finding something new to me that I enjoy. If you haven't been, it's the perfect place for a date, a girls night, or a day for yourself. They also have good snacks and charcuterie for you to munch on while you drink vino. Don't know much about wine? No problem. Their team will point you in the right direction and they have something for everyone. This is an approachable wine bar- they want you to enjoy the wine as much as they do and I love that about Magie. This spot has a nice indoor space and a beautiful outdoor area. They also have a sister location in the Grove.

There is a parking lot right on the side of the building, but if that lot is full, there is also street parking, and parking across the street in a lot behind the Citadel. The service here was great! All of the staff were very nice and welcoming. The set up of the lounge is also very cozy. There is plenty of space for people to sit whether you're on a date or with a small group, but seating is first come first serve, so if you're coming with a group it's better to get there earlier in the evening so you have a space comfortable enough for the size of your group. There is also indoor and outdoor seating which is nice. There are many wines to choose from and they also have a decent menu with light bites. We opted for the Dino nuggets and caviar which were a hit, the fried olives and some meats and cheeses with some cornishons, fig jam and a sliced baguette. Overall this place has a great vibe to it and I heard they host events every so often. I highly recommend it if you're looking for a nice space to chill with some friends and enjoy a nice spot in Miami.

The crowd was friendly, the vibe was social, and it's easy to strike up conversations and meet new people. Definitely a great place for a date night, hanging out with friends, or just enjoying a good glass of wine in a really cool setting. If you're in Miami and looking for a chill spot with great ambiance and wine, Lagniappe House is absolutely worth checking out. Great spot for a date night.

It felt like a lot of small things that added up enough to leave us all feeling meh about it. We made a reservation and were right on time. We were told our table wasn't ready so we waited outside due to the entrance being extremely tight. It was a super chilly and windy night so that wasn't great. I went in to ask after almost 15 minutes and they immediately walked us to an open table, which felt weird to not have called us back in despite the table sitting vacant. The ordering process was fine and the waitress was informative and chatty enough that we commented about it when she left after taking our order. Things then kind of randomly took a turn. They served our food with a few dishes coming out super quickly. One more came out and not long after, all plates were cleared, even though one - the tuna tartare, wasn't done. We all were so taken aback and slightly distracted that we didn't really react and then kind of all asked "was there not a ton still left on that plate?" So we assumed whatever was coming out was coming soon and we were in great spirits and celebrating "NYEE" so we let it go. For the rest of the night, we struggled to flag down a waiter, and just overall felt like we had done something wrong. It was super strange and took away from the night. It took over 20 minutes before our last entree came out. I understand veal can take long to prepare, but they could have notified us or spaced it appropriately. The pasta it came with felt a bit like an airplane pasta - felt very thoughtlessly prepared. Another note on something that stood out- plates are out on table and were never swapped out when we were brought our food. Even if there is turnover quick enough that it doesn't sit for long, I would rather not have my plate out in the open to then eat off of. My thinking is that it must have been an off night because I haven't heard anything bad about Semilla. However, it was a bummer enough that it has me second guessing if I want to come back.

This is how I found "Got Wine". They have a foldable sign out on Collins, since the actual restaurant is tucked away on 26th Street and closer to the bay walk. When I stopped in around 8pm, I was the only patron as I'm guessing it's more of a daytime spot to grab some sips and bites after the beach. The interior is dimly lit, and the high top tanks are rounded by wine dispensing machines . I forgot to ask, but believe they have bottles for sale as well. I will say this, the sign on Collins is good marketing because the restaurant is tucked away. Service was casually attentive, with my waiter making great recommendations. I do wish they had some desserts or dessert wine. That would have made the 5th star. I enjoyed their "Encubierto" white wine blend from Argentina. It was light, chilled, slight citrusy yet tart. It's perfect for early evening or after a long walk and paired well with the chicken Milanese (breaded chicken) I ordered. It was lightly breaded and well done, with a generous portion especially for a tapas spot. It was accompanied with a mixed green house salad that had a large variety of baby tomatoes (one of my favorite condiments). I also enjoyed their teriyaki chicken skewers served with a tangier l, richer sauce.
