    Maps is quite the space. It's comparable to even the coolest Bay Area venues like the New Parish which host visual arts also.

    We attended a wedding reception at the Penthouse at Riverside Wharf in downtown Miami and had a…read morewonderful time. This is a great event venue mainly for a couple reasons: 1. It has excellent elevated views of the Miami skyline to the east and the Miami River, boats, and the W Flagler St Drawbridge (historical landmark, built in 1938) to the west. I believe the penthouse is located on the 10th floor of a relatively new building. 2. The venue is modern and versatile. The inside spaces (including restrooms) had a clean, updated look. For this event, there were multiple bars and food stations set up both indoors and outdoors. The dance floor was outside. The combination of string lights, rooftop patio decor, and the city skyline was beautiful. There was only one elevator to get everyone up and down, so there was a bottleneck there. They brought in a fire dancer to perform outside on the rooftop, which was really cool.

    My friends and I went to The Penthouse at Riverside Wharf this weekend, and what a view!…read more The venue has great views on both sides - it has an urban background with the skyline and the freeway on one side, and an awesome view of The Wharf and waterfront on the other side. There's limited street parking, but there's an adjacent parking lot. I'd recommend using a valet service if you are hosting an event here. I absolutely loved the views here, which is why this place gets 5 stars!

Paid $30 in the private parking lot after an exhausting hunt for street parking. Cute gift shop and café in the lobby. Good amount of security officers and staff inside and well organized with gender assigned public bathrooms.

    I went here for the first time last night. I went to an event with food, drinks and a concert…read more Parking is $40 and it is right behind the venue. The venue where the food and drinks were was big and inviting. They had nice bars set up. I am not sure of this is how this place is set up normally. I won't comment on the service, food and drinks because I don't know if that is directly from the venue. I do know that their security was not as thorough as they should have been. One positive thing is they have a LOT of women's bathrooms. It sounds funny, but you ladies know that when there is a concert, there can be long waits to go. As far as the concert area, this reminded me of a big nightclub. There are no seats for the general public. VIP area had some seats that looked uncomfortable. Besides that, there were not many seats at all and far too many people in that area. This venue is behind Wynwood Marketplace and honestly, it is a pain to get to if you are walking here from the Marketplace. I would come back but only for an event that seems worth it.

From my seat on the patio, there was a view of the skyline- I just missed sunset, but it was still beautiful. The cocktails, the wine, and the food were good but the standout besides the view was the service. Gaga was awesome. Kept checking on me but wasn't intrusive. Rushed to get me whatever I needed. Took the time to take photos of me from every different angle lol I would definitely come back on my next trip to Miami and request to sit in Gaga's section. Cheers!

However, there were some hiccups with the food and portions. The service was good. They always stayed on top of refills and ensured we had everything we needed. I ordered the charcoal grilled octopus appetizer and the grilled lamb chops with two sides. The food was delicious. However, It's a little embarrassing to charge 28 dollars for 3 small tentacles of an octopus one being so tiny, that it was burnt to crisp. Second, grilled lamp chops for $47 with no sides? Ordering the sides separately, the exotic wild mushrooms for $16 were salty. Creamy mashed potatoes $14 were delicious. So, essentially a complete dish was $77. My business partner's short rib was short on the rib but still tasted good. You're not even a one Michelin-star restaurant to command these prices for the portion. I do not mind paying more but not for these portion sizes, $105 without the cocktail, no thank you. The fine dining experience is overrated in today's market. Your staff, ambiance, and flavor of the food, saved this review. One and done.
