Seeing…read morewe were the only table in the entire restaurant made me apprehensive but eventually the place started to fill up. That's my only criticism of the restaurant AND where we live on the West Coast everyone is asleep when Miami just starts picking up. Now to the service and food. Food was stunning. Nothing short of magnificent. The bread. Don't order the bread, order two. HFS. Now I want to make bread at home. Next, the Tiradito de Pulpo, yeah order that too. Amazing flavors and texture. For the entrees we ran the table on cuts. Wife had the ribeye, son had the filet and I had the NY. All were cooked to perfection. I could eat here everyday. Amazing place that deserves 6 stars.

One can reserve a table or walk-in (like we did on 2 separate occasions-lol). Area 31 has Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner Service. There is also Brunch Service on Sat. & Sun. - 8am - 2pm. There is a "Social Hour" / Happy Hour that is held at specific times in their terrace / lounge area. Once we walked through the Kimpton Epic Hotel Lobby and got the elevator to Area 31 for dinner, we are welcomed by their indoor dining area. Before we knew it, we stepped outside & observed some of the dopest breathtaking scenic rooftop & waterfront views. We looked down & saw views of Biscayne Bay w boats going down the waterway... we looked up & glanced at the night skyline which was beautiful. Definitely 5 Stars for the view, & the terrific ambiance. Chic, upscale, classy w/ a hint of down-to-earth Miami vibe is how I would describe Area 31. Staff are friendly & we received good customer service. We saw people celebrating birthdays at their dining tables while we all enjoyed the Miami weather. We ordered Lobster Bucatini & it was good. area31restaurant.com @area31miami Hours are 7am - 10pm. Breakfast is 7am - 11am & Dinner is 6pm - 10pm.

So I recommend recommended if you stay at the hotel. One weird thing is that the bill has a built-in tip. That's fine. But at the bottom, they say it's an 8% tip added.

My bf and I had the salmon oshi press to start, the sushi never disappoints at Earls! Then had the entree they just added on, the smokehouse pork chop. Highly recommend.

Thank you Nicky for your service!! You were awesome :))

Earls was a nice change of pace for dinner, and we enjoyed trying a little bit of everything on the…read moremenu. We started with the Korean ribs, sticky fried rice bites topped with tuna, chicken tenders, calamari, and shrimp & pork dumplings. The standout appetizer was definitely the dumplings, which we'd gladly order again. The ribs were tender, though the gochujang sauce may be a bit overpowering for those who aren't fans of bold umami flavors. Fortunately, that's right up our alley. The calamari was also cooked perfectly with a great texture. Our server, Isa, was fantastic throughout the evening. She kept our drinks topped off, checked in consistently without being intrusive, and made several great recommendations that helped guide our selections. For our main dishes, we sampled a variety of items. The filet was cooked properly but could have used a bit more seasoning. It paired nicely with the mashed potatoes and mushrooms. All of our steaks were cooked to the requested temperature, which is always appreciated and not something every restaurant consistently gets right. The tortellini was another solid choice, featuring a flavorful cream sauce that paired well with the added grilled chicken. Unfortunately, the Korean beef bibimbap was the biggest disappointment of the evening. It lacked flavor, and the rice at the bottom of the bowl was overly burnt and crispy from the residual heat. To finish the meal, we shared the crème brûlée cheesecake and sticky toffee pudding. The cheesecake was a great ending to the meal, while the sticky toffee pudding reminded us somewhat of a molten chocolate cake and was equally enjoyable. Overall, there were more hits than misses, and we'd return to explore more of the menu.

Now their happy hour...great drink and food prices. Try the spicy margarita. Yum! They also have private rooms for your entire party...just call ahead. I have hosted happy hour events here and it is always wonderful.

Also, people kept strolling in, looks like they have a private back area. People were interestingly dressed and kept taking photos near the back. The service was okay, it felt like the food took long to come out, considering there weren't a lot of diners there. Two of us had the picanha, it was good but it was à la carte, so I ordered potatoes with like a chili oil topping as a side. Split that with my daughter who ordered the mahi mahi and really enjoyed the mahi. The last person in our party ordered a chicken dish, I think it might have been Asian style; she said it was okay.

As we went inside, my wife and I decided to have a private dining because our two children are very loud and nosy, we didn't want to disturb and ruins the night of other table and customer. So anyways, let's talk about their food. I'll just say it's delicious, nothing fancy. I'll recommend the steak we ordered. We both ordered a steak and a wine which was very affordable and delicious. Our kids only ate 1portion of burger and fries because I know they can't finish it because the portion of their burger and fries were so big. The food here is very affordable, they are very tasty, very clean place and large portions. If ever you want to visit here, you should make a reservation in advance because thre are too many people who come here and there's a chance that there won't be any seats available by the time you arrive. That's one of the reasons why my wife and I have private dining.

Novecento in Brickell is the perfect spot to soak in the energy of downtown Miami without feeling…read moreoverwhelmed by it. Located right in the heart of the action, the second-floor patio offers an incredible vantage point of the street-level hustle while providing a slightly elevated, breezy escape. On a warm May evening, the atmosphere was spot on. It is refreshing to find an Argentinian establishment that offers a refined, curated dining experience beyond the typical "all-you-can-eat" rodizio style. The wine list is excellent, and since Malbec is a personal favorite, it was an easy and rewarding choice to start the night. I ordered the Milanesa (Tenderloin), which is essentially the South American answer to country fried steak. Instead of the heavy gravy you might find in the American South, I had it served "A Caballo" topped with medium-fried eggs. The tenderloin was exceptionally flavorful and the batter was seasoned perfectly. It remained tender under the crisp exterior, and the eggs added a rich, velvety finish. I opted for the charred asparagus, and it was honestly a highlight of the meal. They were massive stalks with a beautiful char that provided a perfect al dente crunch. It's rare to find asparagus that avoids that "dreaded mushy" texture, but Novecento nailed it. Between the view, the breeze, and a great glass of red, this was a standout Miami evening. Whether you are looking for a lively social spot or a high-quality Argentinian meal, this location delivers.

They have a $27 lunch special which comes with an appetizer, an entree and a coffee or a dessert. There were 7 of us and 3 of us got the lunch special. Two of them had the NY strip and liked it. They ordered it medium well but said that they should have ordered it medium instead because it wasn't pink at all. The dessert was also yummy. The birthday girl had the Caesar salad and added chicken to it. She also had a creme brulee for dessert. I preferred the dessert that came with the lunch special because the creme brulee was brown in color not the usual yellow egg color. It may have been coffee flavored. I had a burger and it was great! So were the fries. They also came with ketchup, which I was happy about. 18% tip is automatically included. We had asked for separate checks but ended up getting only one bill so we had to divide it up back at the office, which was a pain. Service was okay. Not bad but not impressive either. Overall, we enjoyed the food and we would come back.
