    Burger, I asked for extra cheese, got it, but burger wasn't even hot enough for the top cheese to be melted.

    Honestly, the best thing about this place is a select few of employees, Carlo being an absolute star. I came and had the Sunday buffet. Absolutely disgusting. The BEST thing about it was POTATO SALAD. That's it. Their meat was cold, anything baked was cold as well, or warm and disgustingly mushy. I'm glad they lowered their price (just this past week?? lol), but compared to casino buffets I've had before, this is* a dismal comparison. Glad they don't really do seafood here. Yikes. I've also sat at their 1952 cafe as well (just for dinner, not part of the buffet), and the staff/servers couldn't be bothered with anything. They stayed at the host stand and yakked and texted forever, without checking on me at all. I ordered the shrimp appetizer (seemed to be a microwaved item - not crispy), and the burger with fries. The fries were cold when it came out, the burger was smothered in mayo and ketchup for some reason (and I MEAN smothered), and not cooked to order. First and foremost:::: your kitchen staff needs better training or better pay, because their efforts are horribly lacking at this moment. I say this, having worked in restaurants. How things came out? We would have been embarrassed - cold, sloppy food would never have made it out the door. Why does it matter that the fries were cold??? There was ONE SINGLE PERSON besides me eating there at the time. Obviously, customer care is nowhere near the top of "restaurant" staff priorities. No, I didn't bother to complain. Why? Because no one was bothered about me in the first place. I get it's a casino, and I shouldn't expect much, but these two experiences were terrible and speak volumes. Good luck, folks. On the slots, and on what food you order. ‍

    We went to the Air Supply concert and had a great time. There are many bars to get drinks. I didn't see any food being sold. The restroom is inside the casino. It's very clean, big and modern. No line:) There is a security check to enter concert area. No outside beverages allowed. Parking is free and easy. The upper level seating is covered by a roof.

    Magic City Casino 450 NW 37th Ave., Miami, FL 33125 4 Stars In Miami, everyone is a Cuban irredentist. However, living in Miami is apparently acceptable to this passionate group. Second --and third-generation Cuban-Americans abound at Magic City Casino. For my second foray into the Casino Review Landscape, I began on the casino floor. The Casino is full of the newest class 3 slots, or "Las Vegas" style slot machines. While I did not notice a high-limit area, I could have missed one. They do not have any live table games in the casino, but they do have an abundance of video roulette and craps machines. Literally wall-to-wall, as one can see in the pictures. Making my way into the card room. I noticed that everyone was Speaking Spanish. Just be aware that the English-only law for poker rooms is not being enforced here. The dealers are all solid in their card-handling skills and fluent in English. They only comp water and coffee, so if you like to drink while you play, be prepared to pay for liquor. Not only do they have loads of table games in their Poker Room, but they also have tables for Texas Hold 'Em, Three Card Poker, High Card Flush, and 5-card Stud, as well as daily poker promotions. After my modest win at the last reviewed casino, I sat at a 1-2 no-limit Texas Hold 'Em table again. I had dinner reservations at 5 PM, so I had roughly two hours to ply my luck. Magic City Casino has an extremely generous Players Club with bountiful rewards. The rake per hand is consistent with non-Indian gaming. The Big Boy says, "The slots are loose and fun, and the poker room is live. I won $62.00 in two hours. Not a bad take for a fun time."

    Worse casino

    I had a machine tell me that it paid out four times and it did not pay out. I've called for service. Had three employees stop. They called for someone to come. No one has come. I called the main number. Told him what machine I was at. They didn't come nobody here gives a Crap about anything worse casino I've ever been to..

    This review is for the Jai- Alai at Magic City Casino. We were happy to catch the last game of the Spring season. Free admission and free parking is always nice! I've lived in South Florida over 25 years and had always seen signs for Jai Alai and now I know what it is. What a cool sport, and a cool little arena space they have. They got refreshments, bar, games area for families. Really cool vibe and fun to a Friday night date night. We are looking forward to the next season!

    We purchased tickets to see the Magic City Lights event on a Friday which was held during the Christmas season and also took the opportunity to explore the casino. The venue appears to be a melting pot of Hispanic individuals where people of all ages come together. You will find a lively area in the slot machine room where a DJ spins Latino music and people dance, socialize, or play. When hunger strikes make your way to 1952 Cafe, restaurant. The concept is simple but provides a diverse menu that caters to a variety of diners. While the food may not have Michelin-star expectations, it delivers great value for the money without compromising on quality. A friendly employee recommended trying the Lomo Saltado which we did and we were not disappointed. We also ordered a Caesar salad.

Cons: you have to walk through the spa to get to the pool which felt awkward, tiny bathroom stalls, smaller pool. I will note that there were more kids at this location than I typically see at a ResortPass/hotel pool in Miami, and their splashing/cannon-balling right next to us with no parents actually parenting their kids (ex. Telling the kids to jump elsewhere) likely did impact my experience. When you're there to relax and you're getting splashed, the vibes as not aligned.

A special thank you to Ana and Bella for their dedication to bringing initiatives like this to life. Their efforts, along with many other cultural projects they champion, help make Miami a richer, more creative, and more connected city. I'd also like to thank the InterContinental Miami for hosting this wonderful activation. The venue provides the perfect setting, surrounded by art and architecture that beautifully complement the experience. Looking forward to many more Collaborative Mondays to come!

    This was our 3rd annual stay at The Ritz-Carlton Coconut Grove, Miami. Beautiful property and great…read morelocation, but this visit was a mixed bag for the price (~$800/night before taxes/fees) and my Lifetime Titanium Bonvoy status. We booked a City View Executive Suite about 2 months in advance and requested quiet, high-floor, non-connecting, away from elevators. Our room wasn't ready until nearly 5pm, and we were placed in Room 329 on the 3rd floor (of 7 guest floors), steps from the elevator, street-facing over the front entrance. Room was clean, but the placement didn't match our request. Isabelle's is a highlight -- excellent breakfast (eggs, sandwiches, yogurt, oatmeal, power shots). Room service exceeded expectations: the chicken soup was top 5 I've ever had. Complimentary happy hour was also great (house Chardonnay was surprisingly good). We also received a $50/day F&B credit and breakfast for two (worth noting: breakfast can run $80-$100+ for two if paying out of pocket). Big downside: noise -- late-night piped-in music (called around 2-3am), loud Commodore bar vibe, nearby construction, and 1.5 hours of drilling next door on our last day. Shout-outs to Christina Strong (front desk--proactive and empathetic), Lucas at Isabelle's, and Steve (bellman) -- all excellent. Amazing walkable area (Koko, Narbona, waterfront paths), but room placement and noise management didn't match the Ritz price tag.

First, I thought everything was beautiful - from the entrance, to the hallways lit with chandeliers, to the serene and cozy waiting area. It was also easy to find on the second floor by following the signs. Second, the massage was phenomenal!! I can't remember the technician's name - started with a U or Y. But he did such an amazing job and was so thorough. I felt so relaxed afterward and like so much tension had left my body. Then he offered me a glass of champagne! I was so happy because I didn't realize this was part of the package lol. I stayed in my robe and lounged in the waiting area for another 20-30 minutes. I could have stayed so much longer but had to get home to my child. Oh also, he was super timely. I literally didn't even have to wait after I changed into my robe. Speaking of the waiting area, it was small but in a perfectly intimate and calming way. There was also a sauna for anyone who wanted to partake after their massage, and a shower to clean off before leaving. Also, I thought the locker room was charming. The lockets had automatic keypad locks which were easy to use. The receptionist was incredibly friendly, and welcomed me by name right when I got there. Valet parking was easy, and the spa validated the valet ticket. The only con - I used my Spa Finder card to pay. I actually had a physical card I was gifted recently and a printed out e-gift I still had money on from earlier this year. Unfortunately, she couldn't find a way to run the gift card using just a number so I had to scan my new card.. which is fine.. but I still have a balance on my e-gift card I'd like to use. Regardless, I would highly recommend this spa! (Side note.. I walked by their restaurant, Isabelle's on the way out and it was gorgeous. I've heard their brunch is great, and it seems like it would have been the perfect way to wrap up this spa day if I'd had time!)

Walking distance to a Publix, the mall, bakery, etc. The hotel checkin is on the 6th floor, the first floor is mainly a seating area and concierge. They offer free hot breakfast, mini fridge and microwave in the room, cruise shuttle at time of this review is priced at $12 with pick up times at 10a, 11a, and 12p. If you miss breakfast, they had breakfast bags with fruit and other grab and go items. You will need your room key to access the laundry room and guest floors. There is no carpet in the room I was in (basic king- not the elite level) and pets are not allowed. Service animals only. The hotel has a lobby bar, three restaurants are located right next door (Sproutz, Batch Gastropub, and Shahs of Kabob). I dined at Sproutz and Shahas of Kabob and both are good, but they are not affiliated with the hotel. I stayed 3 nights prior to my cruise and I really enjoyed my stay. The air conditioner worked with no issues, pillows are very soft, bed was firm, but not uncomfortable and I slept better in that bed, than my own. There is a master light switch to control the overhead light in the entry and bathroom. You can operate them separately (it just takes some flipping of lights to figure it out). Decent water pressure and nice, hot water at night. Morning time I suggest getting your shower in early. Hot water is still present but not as hot as it was the night before. Tip- I took my shower at 5/6am the morning of checkout and the water was hot and perfect for a nice shower before leaving for cruise. Staff was always smiling, friendly and willing to assist. Carlos at the concerige desk is very helpful, ask for his recommendations and he is more than happy to assist. The 7th floor has the laundry facility, but many machines were out of order.

The room had a king bed, a fridge, microwave, a TV, drawers, and a bathroom with a shower. It was very clean. We got two drink vouchers to redeem at the lobby/pool bar, which was a plus, to enjoy while we were at the pool. The hotel has a fitness center as well. The continental breakfast provided a selection of coffee and juices for the beverages. The food items consisted of a waffle bar, different types of pastries, and breakfast foods to choose from. They offered a little more than some of the other locations I have been at.

I asked repeatedly for an early, 2pm check-in. When I go there around 2:15, the front desk area was in chaos. There were 2 people being waited on and I was first in line, but had to wait for ~10 minutes to get any attention. Even with repeated communication, the room was not ready. My kids were heading into melt down mode. Not a great start. I got a call at 2:45 that my room was ready. We headed back around 4 and then it was the same chaos, and very long wait to get our 1 piece of luggage. Once upstairs, the hotel is very neat and tidy and our room was a 2 bedroom suite with a balcony, facing the bay and city. The condition and working order of the room, bathroom, and kitchenette were excellent. We loved the minimalist aesthetic. They did have a happy bday card and some chocolates for me in my room - a very nice touch. The main event downstairs is the pool area. They had a DJ playing vibey lounge music and it was packed with people chilling and drinking as mature adults. Definitely not a wild spring break scene. The pool is heated, too. The best is being in the pool as the sun sets - very magical as the place goes from day to night. Great hotel - lousy front desk.

I went to order an empanada from the front and the man that was behind the counter (after taking a 80 payment for 3 food items and 2 coffees..) walked to the front desk gave the girl a hug went outside did some stuff and then came back to make our drinks. I don't even understand what happened there there was one employee working behind and he just walked away. I was told from the front desk that they only have one available cart for us to use and that the carts they had the previous day "disappeared"- the bellman was incredibly rude and laughed at me bc I asked how the carts from yesterday just disappeared... (might've been a bad question but a place like this that is so expensive... it makes no sense to have 1 cart in the entire hotel) I had to ask I believe a manager(Sebastian) he was so incredibly helpful and got us what we needed and really was the only helpful staff member there he rocks, he apologized oh behalf of the other staff and was helpful and patient with the situation! The food was probably the worst food I have ever eaten- they need to figure out that situation first. For the prices they charge I really wanted to tell the chef face to face how bad it was. The fish was over cooked to the point it was literally so crispy like a French fry there was no moisture left in the fish. The fries (were very good) the coleslaw had no flavor it tasted like mayo and cabbage like nothing else seemed to be in it.. somehow bland... The fish was bland. The tartar sauce was bland. Somehow even the horseradish sauce they gave me was bland. It was sincerely the worst fish fry I have ever eaten in my entire life. And I do not say that lightly........Really haven't had an experience like this anywhere else it was utterly ridiculous absolutely laughable for what they charge and the location. The best part if my meal was the fried and ketchup. So sad. The pastries? The chefs makes pretty croissants but the filling is absolutely terrible it was like curry chicken and peppers nothing like a chicken empanada.. didn't have any beef options all in all I would absolutely never recommend this place to anybody ever. Seems like it's going downhill or staff just doesn't care! I've seen the other recent reviews and they aren't great.. Doesn't seem like they let the chefs put anything on the menu themselves and really streamlined the whole thing terribly. I would not recommend this hotel unless you want rude service and terrible food. The only good thing about this place is that it's on the water..

We sat down and ate they brought the food bbq to the table brought is drinks during the dinner they had live music that followed outside fire dancers and hula dancing. Then you were able to walk around the island birds a few animals jungle vibe. Than back on the boat for a ride back. Food was chicken which was tender and tasty. Ribs that feel off the bone with extra bbq sauce. Corn bread coleslaw.

    Great way to spend 90 minutes. Cost was reasonable. Boat left exactly at departure time…read more Sights were interesting although most of the trip was taken up with view of famous people's homes. This was expected though since most of these types of boat rides are similar in that respect. One interesting highlight was the trip into Port Canaveral to see some of the cruise ships in port. The tour guide/docent named Mason kept us engaged throughout the trip with his knowledge and an occasional one-liner. All in all a very pleasant afternoon. Highly recommended

    I just saw the band Interpol at the James L. Knight Center and had a frustrating experience with…read morethe concessions and bar service. When ordering food or drinks, the staff add a tip to the transaction before showing the total when you pay with a card or tap to pay. There is no clear prompt or option to choose the tip amount before the charge processes. You see the final total only after the tip is already included. This ha-penned to me and to my friends.. I normally tip but I do not like the deception. This practice is misleading. Customers deserve the chance to review the total and decide the tip themselves before payment goes through. Transparency at the point of sale matters, especially in a venue where many people move quickly through concession lines. The concessions are operated by Hyatt Hotels, which makes the situation even more disappointing. A hospitality brand of this size should hold a higher standard for clear and fair payment practices. Events at the Knight Center bring thousands of guests. The payment process should be transparent and respectful of the customer's choice. Adding gratuity before showing the total is not acceptable and should be corrected.

    With several pop up bars, great seating arrangements, good sound and lighting...this was a great…read morevenue to host the Rick Ross Port of Miami Orchestra concert. I had an absolute blast! I didn't have food but I did hit the bar. Prices weren't bad and service was friendly. I love that it was conveniently located not far from home that made for an easy commute. Great event space!
