    03/16/25 - 12pm.**FYI** if you valet, the restaurant will validate your parking so you wont have a $30 valet fee. Now this is a must go to Brunch at a total of $115 a person it is worth it!! Amazing Stone Crabs, Shrimp, Tomahawk Steak, Brisket, Ribeye , Snapper, Fresh Pasta , and so much more. I totally ate my weight in Stone Crab and Shrimp. The service was great too as well. Just look at my pics to get just a few items that this brunch has to offer. We will be back!! Oh yes, we will be back.

    Yummy food with quite a variety of stations to chose from! We didn't the bottomless bunch and enjoyed our experience.

    After receiving our marriage certificate on Miami Beach, we decided to dine a little closer to home to celebrate our 10 year Anniversary. Nina Compton's Compère Lapin was in-town and taking over Edge Steak & Bar at The Four Seasons Brickell for 2 months and ended up being the perfect spot. New Orleans inspired cuisine is very difficult to find in Miami, so we made sure to book our reservation several weeks in advance for this unique dining experience. Given that this experience/temporary residency was at The Four Seasons Hotel, the service and hospitality was exactly what one would expect: warm and attentive. Although it was May in Miami and right in the beginning of summer, it was a very breezy evening that made for a wonderful back drop. I enjoyed a Brugal 1888 Old Fashioned while looking over the menu. We decided to order the following dishes: - CRAWFISH HUSHPUPPIES: With Cilantro Aioli and Lemon. Fantastic appetizer! The cilantro aioli was to die for, and crawfish is something that's hard to come by around here outside of a handful of cajun restaurants. - HOT FIRE FRIED CHICKEN: Served on Coconut Grits & topped with Hot Honey & Pickles. My fiancée/now wife's order. The chicken was extremely tender, had a great kick to it due to the hot honey, and was complemented by the sweetness of the coconut grits. - BLACKENED WHOLE FLORIDA LOBSTER: Maque Choux & Herb Breadcrumbs. This was my order. I normally don't order lobster tail out at restaurants, but this one caught my attention due to all the extras added. Definitely enjoyed it! After a delicious dinner, we were given a sweet surprise, complements of the chef, for our 10 year anniversary. My fiancée was full so we didn't stay to order a "full" dessert dish after the fact. This sweet surprise was comprised of a caramel brittle, with the "Happy Anniversary" written in a small block of dark chocolate. We hope that Nina Compton and Compère Lapin are able to make a permanent comeback in Miami one day. But until then, we will just have to visit New Orleans in the near future to get our fix!

    Feel like royalty for $115! I was blown away but the different stations, spreads, presentation and most importantly, the taste. You can help yourself at the buffet or there's a menu item you can choose to order from e.g. eggs any way, ceviche, ricotta pancakes, lamb skewer, etc The breakfast/dessert pastry options were endless: cakes, muffins, tarts, crossaints, macaroons. The meat station covered all the important proteins: sausages, rib eye, paella, a whole fish The wait staff is very attentive. They quickly refill your glass if you opt for the additional $35 for bottomless. $40 for valet.

    FYI, review is based off my Compere Lapin pop up experience only. My friend spoke highly of Nina Compton and so we booked reservations and I am so happy we did. It was the opening weekend so they had live music going to set the mood and the first round of drinks had me feeling nice. I got the "A Night at the Oloffson" which was made with Claritin Le Rocher Haitian rum, passion fruit and ginger syrup and it was strong but tasty. For our appetizer, we got the crawfish hushpuppies and I loved the crisp exterior and soft pillowy interior and they weren't cheap with the crawfish meat. Then we moved onto to the Caribbean chopped salad that had a light and smooth coconut dressing and that was definitely my favorite. I also tried the pork belly with tamarind sauce and plaintain purée but which was good but I should've followed my heart and gotten the shrimp but will do so next time. The for the main course we got the Escovitch snapper and hot chicken with coconut grits and they were both delicious but I expected both to be more spicy. I skipped dessert this time, I know shocking, lol but I definitely enjoyed that drink so I got a second. This was a nice dining experience and I would there would be more Caribbean fine dining restaurants that served GOOD QUALITY food like this.

    I went to Edge the other day for happy hour and we had a fabulous time! The service was very good and drinks were very good. We ended up staying for dinner and the food was good. Does it compensate for the pricing, I am not so sure, but it was good and I liked everything. I must say the sides were delicious and prob my favorite parts of the meal. The salad and mushrooms were on another level! I forgot to picture a lot of things. Our fish was fresh and buttery, how we like it! The risotto was not bad, but not memorable. I prob would not order it again. Overall our experience at Edge was a very nice one and I will def be back. We were kind of in a big group, but this spot is def nice for a date night as well.

    Mushroom risotto
    Trevor K.

    In my personal opinion Edge is hands down the best brunch in Miami. There is a scene and a vibe to the place from inside to out, with live music playing. The large array of food selections is incredible with each dish thought out and executed so well. We chose the drink package with the brunch and it didn't disappoint. There was no feeling of being rushed out of the place or like we were held to a time frame like most Miami brunches. The staff was so hospitable with even Gregory the GM stopping by to inquire how everything is. You can tell they care and our passionate. So many dishes were memorable like the mushroom risotto and the sauces for the seafood selections. The desserts were outstanding and perfection!

    This restaurant has fallen apart under new leadership. The food is subpar and, at times, awful. Undercooked mussels that had to be sent back just recently. Anchovies are sometimes missing from their poorly dressed Caesar salad. Soup of the day? Never great - at best, good; often, poor. Rock hard leeks despite a lovely dressing. French onion soup that tastes fine but is always served boiling hot. You will burn yourself. Also, they've stopped making their own butter and now hand out packets instead, which is disgraceful to the baker, who still does well. The ambiance lacks energy because nobody wants to come here anymore. It's a shame, really, because the interior is lovely. The bar remains popular, but few seem interested in dining - and it's obvious why. Edge is a mediocre restaurant at best, bringing shame to the Four Seasons brand that houses it.

    Came for Sunday brunch and had to be rolled out. LOL!!! Edge has an awesome Sunday Brunch. The 2nd best I have had. The food, service & atmosphere was totally amazing. My favorite was the lobster & tomahawk ribeye. The deserts are completely spectacular!!! The was not a bad thing about this place.

    Have not been to Edge in a while. It used to be one of my favorite places for happy hour. Decided to go on a Sunday for an early dinner. Edge is located in the Four Seasons hotel on Brickell Ave. You must take the elevators to the 4th floor. The ambiance is very nice and it is upscale. The inside is very nice with a large bar just as you walk in. There is inside as well as outside seating. The staff are pleasant and work together to ensure that you are comfortable and have everything you need. It is pricey but everything in Brickell is. If you want something more upscale but they are not stuffy, this is the place to go.

    Sunday Brunch $110 Menu
    Becky L.

    Celebrated a very special occasion so I decided to splurge and do the $110 Sunday brunch here (includes menu items and coffee/tea but if you want cocktails, then it's the $145 option). Booked a reservation for the brunch through opentable. Aside from the buffet food, part of the all-you-can-eat includes made-to-order dishes on the menu. If you want any of the menu items, you should definitely order those as soon as you can, because it took nearly an hour for our food to arrive--there's plenty of buffet food for you to eat in the meantime but I was having to pace myself to make sure there was still room left when the ordered dishes arrived. From the menu, I ordered the lamb kabob and the grilled swordfish. The lamb kabob was well-seasoned, but to be honest not worth the wait. The swordfish was definitely a hit, especially with the spicy huancaina sauce that I can just eat by itself. Of the savory buffet items, my favorites had to be the paella, the stone crab, and the mushroom risotto which you can ask them to add shaved truffle on top. I was absolutely blown away by their desserts--all high quality. One of the reasons why I was drawn to this place was I saw the Strictly Dumpling video of this brunch showing the circle creme-filled croissants that I see are so popular in NYC. While it was good with the Nutella filling, to be honest, I wasn't as much of a fan of the exterior which was harder than a typical croissant. All the desserts were fantastic, but the ones that I'll probably remember for years to come are the 1. lemon meringue croissant (generously filled interior with lemon, and the meringue hugging the end like a snail shell), 2. the tres leches (moist cake bits drowning in the leches topped with sweet mango pieces and cream), and the mango passion fruit cheesecake (perfect tang of fruit pairing the creamy cheesy dessert). Whether it's worth the $110, I'd say yes if you enjoy the seafood like stone crab, shrimp, raw oysters, as well as a wide variety of top of the line dessert. They make sure to add other high-end ingredients like the truffle that you can add to the risotto, which was also warmed inside a giant cheese wheel. I even got to try honey comb for the first time, which made a great combination with the buffet of cheese and bread. For foodies who want to splurge a little for a special occasion, I'd say try the brunch for sure. Also I wanted to make it to the scheduled reservation on time so I ended up doing valet parking which was pricey--$35, but I didn't realize they do validated parking up to 3 hrs like the other reviewers here have mentioned. But if you can find street parking I'd opt for that just in case.

    This was one of the highlights of my first trips to Miami. I came here awhile back but the brunch buffet on Sundays is absolutely worth the price. Price is $115. We just got the classic brunch that included unlimited soft drinks, tea, and coffee. For food, the brunch includes the seafood raw bar, tomahawk steaks, made to order pasta, paella, dessert, and brunch classics. I took some pictures to help give an example. Quality of food was excellent. Service was great. All of the employees were helpful. Place was very clean and classy. When you go outside, you'll see amazing views of the city. I would come back.

    This Chicken Chop Chop Salad was delicious

    Over good not great expand the food was very good. I felt like I was upsold on the avocado and didn't even finish it. The salad was very good and my daughter loved her burger. I will be back and highly recommended this restaurant. It's located at the 4 seasons so the ambience was nice as well.

    Do they validate parking for you? Valet and self parking are pricey

    Yes, I went for brunch and we were there for about 3 hours and validated valet parking was about $16.

    Does this place serve halal food?

    They get their supply from Creekstone Farms, which is a provider of halal meat. I would call before you go to make sure they still get meat from Creekstone.

    Going here Sunday for a friend's birthday! Any MUST HAVE suggestions?

    Try the taco shack if available - so amazing. If you see my review you will also see a pic of some type of pancakes with what tasted like lemon zest and toasted marshmallow - I recommend that too. Hope you guys enjoy!

    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.

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.

The food options sound delish and the sliders and pizza seemed to be a hit as we saw that mostly. We were here for drinks though and we stuck to it. Only down fall for us is that we aren't cigar smokers, so the room was filled with it as we didn't know its a cigar lounge as well, but to each his own. Come drink eat and ber merry!

    Like any Miami-ite, I'm always looking to soak up all the cultural accoutrements the Magic City has…read moreto offer: food trucks, eating halls, sports events, car meet-ups, that one art museum in downtown I forget its name. 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.
