    High end bar in the Miami Beach Edition Marriott. A great dirty martini served with a caviar, cream, and blini. Wood paneling and a view of the tropical garden. Great place for a drink and caviar.

    I was expecting more because it was a Michelin star. The drinks were really great & so was the ambiance. I was not so impressed with the food. Service was great and they really took care of me. I'm sure there's other better places to go in Miami, I probably won't be back. I was not so impressed

    My Husband and I came here after a mistake of going somewhere else. We went here on a whim, w no reservation thankfully the host was able to accommodate. The vibe with soulful music was a welcome reprieve. The food was well prepared and the service was exceptional!

    I had a great experience here at the Matador Bar. The cocktail lists are decent price for a highly rated hotel. He was new there but the bartender Emmanuel and Victor took great care of us. They were very patient with guests and knowledgeable with Cocktail recommendations. If you want something huge and picture pretty, go for the tonic based drinks. They are flavorful and pretty strong. They also have small bites and I recommend the crab fritters or the Calamari. :) definitely a spot for a great mixology style craft cocktails.

    This place was awesome. I loved the ambience, the staff was friendly, the food and drinks were delish. I'm definitely coming back and having a nice dinner. When my girl and I went, we only had the truffle pizza and some drinks. The pizza was honestly one of the best I've ever had. Easily top 3. I can't wait to be back and have it again!

    I've had the pleasure visiting the Matador Bar on a number of occasions and always leave dreaming of the next time I can return. To start, their cocktails are killer, but know you will spend a pretty penny (think $18). They have a rotating menu of specials with some standbys like the Barcelona G&T or Mexican Bull. On my last visit, I had the Mission Viejo which is their take on a mojito. Whatever mood you're in or liquor you prefer, I'm confident you could find something you like. You can also count on quality ingredients and a strong drink that's worth the money... I'm wary of the $30 pineapple drink but alas, if you have the money to spend go right ahead! They also serve a small bites menu of dishes like spicy tuna tartare, sweet pea guacamole, and "crunchy potato nuggets" which are essentially patatas bravas. On my last visit, we ordered fritters of comte cheese and truffle that were really delicious. The menu reflects plates you can also find next door at Matador Room. The atmosphere is what really stands out in my mind. The high walls are lined with photos from French photographer Lucien Clergue that portray the art of bullfighting. There are plenty of seats lining the circular bar, or there are comfier couches if you want to lounge. The bartenders are courteous (like everyone at the Edition), and it's fun to watch them mix and shake in front of you. If you're in the area or dining at one of Edition's restaurants (Matador Room or Market) or partying at Basement, definitely make this a Miami Beach stop!

    A beautiful space to chill, enjoy some good cocktails and delicious bites from Matador Room. I especially love the big wall of bullfight photos by French photographer Lucien Clergue. The room is spacious with its ultra-high ceiling and the huge wall of photos that are defined in red, black and white colors--near-perfect ambiance. The food menu is a part of Matador Room's menu. We shared tuna tartare and glazed short rib tacos. Both of them are DELICIOUS! One of the best tacos I had in my life. With dripping fatty savory beef juice, the tacos are soft, juicy, and savory. Chef Jean George, can I have a bottle of the restaurant's signature hot sauce to-go please! A bit pricy drinks ($18) plus 18% gratuity. But the whole experience worth every penny, imo. The pineapple cocktail is the signature drink here (didn't try it because it's priced at $30 with regular portion size).

    Some great bands in here on Thursday and Friday nights. Drinks are expensive. One bartender was super friendly. This past Thursday the bartender seemed pretty stressed out. Probably too busy? Who knows. Well decorated with extra seating along the wall and outside. Prices could be better. Saw a group leave after seeing the prices.

The atmosphere feels energetic without being overwhelming, and the music sets the mood really well and they have TV in case that's important to you lol. The food absolutely stands out -- everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared. The menu has a great variety, and you can tell they really care about quality and presentation. Drinks were just as impressive: well-balanced cocktails, strong pours, and creative options if you're in the mood to try something new. Service was friendly, attentive, and fast without feeling rushed. The staff was knowledgeable about the menu and gave great recommendations, which always makes the experience even better. Overall, Bar Luca delivers great food, great drinks, and great energy. Definitely a spot I'd come back to and recommend if you're looking for a cool place to eat out in Miami.

Bar Luca is basically a small lobby bar/restaurant in a boutique hotel in Miami Beach. We came for happy hour to try a few different things which neither of us loved. The Chicken Wings seemed reheated and were small. The meatball was a single, and was a small portion for the price, especially considering happy hour. The drinks were ok and the staff friendly, so adding a star for that but not memorable enough for me to return.

We did a full buyout of the space, and from start to finish everything exceeded expectations. The food was absolutely fabulous, the space was fun and vibrant, and it perfectly captured the local Miami vibe we were hoping to share with our team. The service was truly top-tier -- attentive, organized, and seamless, even with a large group. Our attendees had an amazing time, with plenty of great food, great energy, and lots of pictures and memory-making throughout the evening. It was the perfect way to round out a week of corporate meetings, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend for both group events and special occasions.

There's everything from a hammock to standard outdoor furniture. We ordered a few drinks throughout the night, thoughts on all: - Breakfast in the Moonlight: delicious, tastes like a tiki drink, easy to drink and balanced -East of Eden: I didn't love this one as much but the bartender recommended it so it must be popular. It gives me cucumber water at the spa vibes but in a cocktail form. -Always Summer Negroni: I absolutely loved this drink! My favorite one of the night. So cool because it's a clear drink. Really nicely balanced cocktail, not too bitter. -La Bamba Colada: Tastes like a piña colada! But not overly sweet. No dairy for my fellow lactose intolerant friends (just coconut milk). At some point we also ordered a salad, the Shaker Salad with mahi mahi - I liked it! Friendly bartender and staff and overall great place to stop in and grab a drink! They have pretty reasonable prices too.
