    This was our favorite meal by far while staying in Aventura this week. Incredible service - Chelsea may be one of my favorite servers I've ever had. She truly loves what she does and it shines through in her personality -- enhancing the dining experience. The outside environment was amazing and made it easy to converse with others at our table. And the food was incredible. It was presented well and tasted even better! So so good. I loved it all. From the espresso martini to the Caesar with candied walnuts - to the wild mushrooms. And the sea brean fish with Japanese sweet potato. One item was better than the next. Loved it so much and would definitely want to come back next time I come to Ft. Lauderdale.

    I had a great meal here. I love that the menu is produce forward, with mushrooms, artichokes, hearts of palm, and more being showcased. The branzino was great, as were the grilled hearts of palm. The bread they give the table is unbelievable too. The restaurant seems very nice inside while the outside definitely lacked ambiance. Regardless, the food alone makes me want to return.

    Great restaurant very nice and cute inside. Food quality is excellent. Lots of fish options started out with the grilled heart of palm. Best thing ever with truffle next got the Caesar salad. That was amazing. They had two different kinds. We got the original then we just also got a salmon, Tito and a tuna Tartar. Everything was great quality fresh tasty. Great service nice restaurant easy parking.

    Came to the restaurant this evening with my family and I was very surprised by service when we came in. I had a reservation and they gave us a high top table and I do not like high tops so the manager Franco did his best and changed us quickly to a regular table that started well and definitely made my experience at the restaurant. Much better than service was done by Tony really professional. We ordered a New York strip we ordered a burger a Caesar salad, the traditional one and salmon tiradito. The strip was cooked to perfection, medium rare the burger medium was spectacular. The Caesar salad salad with pinenuts gave it a twist that was really nice and the salmon tiradito was also very good. They have a small wine list, but they have a pretty good selection. The restaurant is small and cozy but all in all it was a very good experience. I will be coming to this place more often as service and food is very good.

    Best restaurant of the area by far! Excellent food and service. All his "crudos" are absolutely the best, freshness and flavor on point. His Cesar salad with wasabi has the perfect kick Love the lamb chops and the Japanese sweet potatoes. A must if you are in the aventura area.

    Japanese Ice Cream Sandwich

    Miami Spice at Perl This hidden gem of a restaurant in Aventura really surprised us - although the food was good it was the service that truly made this restaurant stand out! The service was EXCEPTIONAL! We were greeted by our server who had been there since the restaurant opened in 2020 and she was so outgoing, warm, and friendly, and truly excited about the food and the menu the restaurant served. She truly took exceptional care of us! If only the food was as good as the service was I'd rate the restaurant 5 stars but unfortunately some of the dishes fell a little flat. The food was very much 50/50 : either the dish was absolutely amazing or just not that great... This was our first time at the restaurant and were excited to try their Miami Spice Menu. We started with the grilled artichoke hearts which was a very simple dish but done very well. The artichokes were perfectly cooked a little crispy and had a great grilled flavor to them that went perfectly with the leek remoulade sauce. It was one of my favorite dishes - it was simple but fresh and full of flavor! Highly recommend! We ordered the beef tenderloin tartare as our second appetizer and was a dish I was really excited to try because i absolutely love tartare dishes. Unfortunately, this dish was just bad it was very disappointing. First of all, presentation was just bad on this dish. Although you know beef tartare is a rare dish or almost raw dish I don't think the dish needed to actually "LOOK" raw and it just looked bad on the plate. It looked like a raw beef burger patty that you picked up from the grocery store which made the dish off putting to eat or try. It didn't help that the beef tartare was round like a raw beef burger patty and the same frozen light pink color that you would see from a raw grocery store burger patty and it was served with a handful of fries so together on the plate it looked like you were getting ready to cook a raw burger at a BBQ and had fries on the plate for it. For such a high end place and for the high end price point they could have done something more elevated with this dish and rethought the presentation. Flavor wise the dish was ok, but not a great dish it, and we didn't finish it. Our server was amazing though and even though we didn't complain about the dish and simply left it she immediately saw we weren't a big fan of the dish and brought out the grouper carpaccio for us to try instead. Now that dish was absolutely DELICIOUS! Not only was the presentation of the dish absolutely beautifully and colorful and reminded you of summer but it was delicious as well and full of flavor. It had a little bit of a kick to it but it was fresh and light and absolutely perfect. I really wish we would have skipped the beef tartare and started with this appetizer instead. For entrees we both ordered the 10 oz hanger steak since it had been a while since we had a good steak and truly it was one of the best steaks I've ever had. 10 out of 10! Highly recommend! The steak was a great size (especially for Miami Spice) and was cooked perfectly medium rare. It was so soft and tender and it melted right in your mouth. It was served with fries and served with just a little bit of sauce on it that went perfectly with the steak. Again for such a nice restaurant, and compared to the rest of the menu, this dish was a very simple dish and wasn't very complex or different but it was a very good dish and executed perfectly. For desert we decided to order both the Miami Spice deserts to try one of each and the deserts fell a little flat here as well - it was 50/50. Although not the biggest fan of matcha... we decided to try the matcha cheesecake anyways but it wasn't to our taste - another dish we took two bites of and didn't finish. The cheesecake had an overpowering amount of matcha flavor to it and we were just not a fan of it, it tasted a little too earthy for our liking. I'm sure if you like matcha you'd enjoy it though. The Japanese ice cream sandwiches were tasted good but were not a wow dessert, they were just ok. It was two small halves of a macaroon looking sandwich filled with ice cream cut in half and served over a black napkin and the ice cream was good but nothing remarkable or special. For the beautiful restaurant we were in I feel like they could have chosen something more creative or beautiful to end the meal with or a desert that had a little more wow factor to it. We just expected a little more for desert to be honest. Overall the restaurant did have a couple of outstanding dishes and the service throughout was absolutely amazing - our server truly made the evening special.

    Stopped by here on my birthday, 4/26, hoping they would be good for lunch. Nope they weren't, they were superb. The host, the server(Andrew) , the ambiance were outstanding. The food was flavorful, delicious. The broccolini was superb & so were the red snapper tacos. I ate outside which was a great choice. They have a bird in the cage above. Stop by here...u will not regret it.

    Spicy Watermelon Margarita
    Karen G.

    This place has become my favorite restaurant in aventura!!! the service and food cant compare to anywhere else. My favorite was the branzino and the mushroom lasagna but i can confidently say anything you order off the menu will taste delicious. Our serve frank guided us through our dinner. If frank suggests ordering anything you must do it! i trust his suggestion blindly. Apart from knowing the menu frank was super attentive and kind. I had been here 1 time before to eat and another just for drink; must say the staff service is extremely welcoming. if you're too full for dessert, no you're not. Gds gift paired with a coffee is worth making the sacrifice of entering a potential food coma. cant recommend a restaurant as strongly as this one! AMAZING 100/10 must try.

    Chocolate flan cake and olive oil cake with lemon curd.
    Lynette B.

    Was so excited to try Perl on the final evening of Miami Spice. The place has a nice interior and nice outdoor seating area. I was curious to see the rooftop they mentioned was available for private events when we walked in. That would be a great spot for a small company holiday party or even a birthday. Our server was very lovely and knew the menu very well. The only issue was we had asked for tap water but were charged at the end for a bottle of water. Not a huge deal. We started off with their delicious complimentary bread. Then the burrata and ceviche - both were very good with great flavor. We both had the branzino which you could tell was made fresh and the skin was beautifully crisp. The mushrooms and onions were perfect as were the tomatoes and capers. And to complete our delicious meal, we had the chocolate flan cake and the olive oil cake with lemon curd. I can't pick a favorite - they were both divine. Would love to go back and try more of their crudos.

    Exactly the kind of restaurant I wanted to dine at in Miami when visiting from out of town. Luckily it was spice so we could try a lot of the fare! Focaccia was super yummy I got a watermelon margarita and also tried the caipirinha cocktail both were on the stronger side and super refreshing! Broccoli and mushroom appetizers were simple but tasty. Burrata was my favorite the roasted cherry tomatoes were the perfect compliment to the creamy burrata. Loved the fish on the spice menu I think it was red snapper but I remember it has a delicious crispy skin on the outside and the prime rib was cooked perfectly and definitely a favorite in our party. For dessert we had the olive oil cake and a chocolate cake dessert that were excellent. Our server I wish I could remember her name but she was amazing she was working in the evening on 9/17 on the patio she had such great recommendations attentive service and so knowledgeable with the menu and just really made the experience wonderful!

    Spicy passion fruit martini-so good!
    Sabrina S.

    Great place for lunch or dinner. Nice and modern. Great background music that wasn't loud (tropical house when I visited). Food: Hearts of palm appetizer dish was superb! Never had it prepared just like that-unique combo of and delicious flavors. Mushroom appetizer was good. Drinks: That yellow jalapeño Service: Our server was so kind and great. I think he was from California. Parking: Free parking right next restaurant, they have a while section reserved for their customers.

    Salmon Tiradito Dinner
    Sehrish N.

    Found this restaurant kind of by accident and it was an absolute delight. We ordered the Watermelon Margarita to start and it was perfect and super fresh. Our waiter asked if we wanted the complimentary bread and it was definitely the highlight of our meal. It was so soft and delicious. We ordered the Tuna Tartare as an appetizer and it was so good. Completely fresh and the avocado crema was a perfect addition. For our entree we ordered the salmon and it had this smoky glaze on it, super tasty. The last thing we ordered was the Nutella croissant with a macchiato, I will 100% be back for that. Overall delicious meal, service, and ambiance.

Still, they did a solid job making the outdoor seating feel inviting with nicely arranged patio furniture and decor that creates a more comfortable atmosphere. Just keep in mind that the patio sits along a pedestrian arcade area, so expect people constantly passing by during your meal. Service was good overall -- attentive enough with no major complaints, but nothing particularly memorable either. Food, however, was a mixed experience. Maybe we didn't choose the restaurant's strongest dishes, but if something is on the menu, it should still meet expectations. The beef filet mignon kebab was cooked to the requested medium rare temperature, which was appreciated, but the meat itself lacked tenderness. The kutabi was decent but didn't leave much of an impression. The soup was probably the weakest part of the meal, tasting more like reheated leftovers from the previous day rather than something freshly prepared.

    Unfortunately, we had a very disappointing experience…read more We came on a Sunday for dinner, were seated, and then waited about 15 minutes for a server -- no one approached us during that time. The cappuccino I ordered was extremely disappointing: watery and tasteless, more like diluted milk. It honestly feels like there is no proper barista who understands how to make a good cappuccino. Things only got worse -- I had to look for a server myself just to get sugar, and after asking, it still took another ~10 minutes. We waited around 25 minutes for the Philadelphia rolls, which is already quite long, but the result was even worse: there was barely any cream cheese. The taste was completely off -- just poorly made rolls with almost no filling. I visited this place about six months ago and the service was noticeably better. Now it feels like both the service and food quality have significantly declined. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this place.

At first, I wasn't too happy -- there were no outdoor seats available and the music at the bar was super loud. We ended up sitting all the way in the back next to a wall by the bathrooms, and the vibe there was just okay. Later, we moved closer to the outside and it completely changed the experience -- I enjoyed it so much more! The drinks are a little pricey but absolutely worth it -- we had the Tikki Kill and it was delicious. The music was amazing and kept the energy up all night. The couches are super comfy, the hookah service is great (they change the charcoal without you even asking), and free parking is a huge plus. The service was friendly and attentive, which made the night even better. The only downsides are that you really need to make a reservation ahead of time for weekends, otherwise you might end up stuck at the bar or in a less atmospheric spot. Also, there are only two gender-neutral restrooms, so there can be a bit of a wait.
