First and foremost, do not waste your time or money coming here…read more As a Miami native, I was genuinely disappointed by both the food and the level of service. Unfortunately, neither lived up to expectations. We started with the "jumbo" wings, which were anything but jumbo. We received only flats, and they were some of the smallest wings I've ever been served. After bringing this to the staff's attention, we were told the manager would take 50% off the order. However, when the bill arrived, we were informed that the manager had already left and the discount could no longer be honored. Instead, we were given only the $4 happy hour discount, despite being promised otherwise. For our entrées, we ordered the brisket sandwich and the half chicken. Neither was worth ordering. The chicken lacked the crispy texture it was advertised to have, and the brisket was bland and without flavor. The sandwich was also supposed to come with truffle fries, but instead we were served cold, plain fries. After mentioning it, the solution was to bring us a side of truffle oil and Parmesan cheese and ask us to mix it ourselves. The service was equally disappointing. We asked our server twice for drink refills, but she never brought them. We eventually had to flag down another server just to get our beverages refilled. Overall, this was a frustrating dining experience from start to finish. Between the poor-quality food, unfulfilled promises regarding the bill, and inattentive service, this restaurant fell well below the standard I would expect from a Miami establishment. I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience deserves one. I sincerely hope management addresses these issues because the current level of food quality and customer service is simply unacceptable. and quality is embarrassing for miami.

As hospitality industry veterans who have both worked alongside Michelin-starred chefs and dined at…read morestarred restaurants across the US and abroad, my husband and I came into Stubborn Seed with a clear sense of what this level should deliver. We chose it to celebrate our first wedding anniversary on the 4th of July, and it did not meet the bar, not on the food, and certainly not on hospitality. I have had better service at a casual bistro, and I genuinely don't understand how this place earned a star and the reviews that come with it. We did the nine-course tasting. To be fair, several courses were genuinely good. The yellowtail (course 1) and the oyster (course 2) were strong openers. The gusher (course 5), built around jalapeño, was a highlight, and the truffle popper was excellent. A few others were close but undercut by a heavy hand: the agnolotti was very good on its own, but the cream was so rich and so excessive that it buried the dish. The wagyu was fine once I set the sauce aside, though the cut itself lacked the marbling and melt you'd expect from real wagyu. From there it fell apart. The halibut was so overcooked we couldn't eat it. The foie gras was served cold and rock solid, impossible to spread on the toast as instructed, when it should have been brought to a soft, butter-like texture beforehand. The dessert was overwhelmingly sweet. The cocktails had the same problem. I ordered a tomato cocktail that should have been savory and instead came out cloying, over-sweetened with sweet vermouth and yellow chartreuse to the point that the savory character was lost entirely. The hospitality was worse than the food. I noted in our reservation that we were celebrating our first anniversary. The maître d' said "happy anniversary" when we arrived, and that was the beginning and end of it. At a starred restaurant, on an occasion you've flagged in advance, you'd expect a little more care. Instead our server was absent for most of the night. We had to flag down other staff simply to order more drinks, and we ordered four cocktails and two glasses of wine over the evening, so the fault wasn't a quiet table. The most telling moment was the recovery, or the total absence of one. When we sent back the inedible halibut, the server said it shouldn't have happened and moved on. Nothing followed. At this level, how a kitchen and floor handle a mistake matters more than the mistake itself. A comped course, or even a small pour of wine or champagne, is the expected gesture. We were offered nothing. The room didn't help. The restaurant was nearly empty, and the air conditioning was running so cold that I was uncomfortable for much of the meal. There were bright spots, and I want to be fair about them. But for a starred, tasting-menu experience, and for an anniversary we chose this place to mark, the evening fell short on nearly every measure a star is meant to represent. I'd encourage anyone looking for a special meal to consider one of Miami's other Michelin spots instead.

Stumbled into Bar Luca on Miami Beach during happy hour and walked out genuinely impressed,…read moreespecially given how rare it is to find specials this good in this part of town. Happy hour clocks in at $12 for food, $12 for all house cocktails, $10 spritzes, and a flat $6 for all beer, which in Miami Beach feels almost suspicious in the best way possible. I kept it simple with an ice cold Peroni while my wife went for the Giardino 75, a gorgeous little spritz built on Empress Indigo Gin, St. Germain, mint, lime, and prosecco. She loved it. The color alone was worth the ten bucks, but it actually drank as good as it looked. For food we shared the Bolognese Grilled Cheese and let me tell you, this thing punches well above its $12 price tag. Thick cut brioche toast, griddled until the edges go deep golden brown, stacked over a rich slow simmered bolognese with cheese pulling through every bite. Dusted with parmesan and fresh herbs, plated with cherry tomato skewers that added a nice little pop of acidity. Comfort food dressed up for a night out. Service was attentive and easy, drinks came quick, plates came hot, and nobody made us feel rushed even sitting through happy hour. The room itself has that playful Sicilian energy with the Moor head planters and bright touches throughout, which fits the vibe of the menu perfectly. Would I make a special trip back to Miami Beach for it? Probably not from Fort Myers, but if you're already in the area during happy hour, this is one of the better values you'll find on the beach. Solid four stars. Good drinks, good food, great specials, and service that actually showed up.

We stopped in mid-afternoon for a late lunch and were greeted right away. The hostess offered patio or indoor seating and thoughtfully let us know there was active construction nearby that would make the patio pretty noisy the entire time. That honesty was appreciated, we chose to sit inside so we could actually enjoy conversation. The space itself is beautiful, quaint, colorful, and perfectly in tune with that relaxed Miami Beach, art deco vibe without feeling overwhelming. It instantly felt like a calm beachside escape. When our server came over, I asked about gluten-free options. The menu had an indication of gluten-free options available but he went a step further and explained they offer a gluten-free bagel-style bread substitute, which made navigating the menu so much easier. I ordered the avocado with poached eggs (served on the gluten-free bagel thin), and it was incredible. The eggs were cooked perfectly, yolk bursting just right, and topped with fresh arugula and herbs that made every bite flavorful and fresh. Presentation was just as beautiful as the taste. My coworker had the grilled cheese and fries and loved every bite as well. Food came out quickly, everything was delicious, and the experience felt easy and thoughtful from start to finish. Huge bonus: they serve brunch-style options all day until 4pm, which is perfect when you're traveling or craving breakfast at unconventional hours. Finding a spot like this in the heart of Miami Beach on a Wednesday afternoon felt like a win. We would absolutely come back!
