They had rolled back part of the roof and put patio lights so it was dining under the stars. The lighting wasn't harsh so it made for cozy atmosphere. We ordered the birria quesadilla and our waiter suggested the shrimp tacos. They did not disappoint! Full of flavor and texture, we would have them again. The birria was way bigger than expected and tummy too. Our waiter was helpful and on it the whole night. Definitely a great experience.

I will start by saying that my opinion is probably clouded by the fact that my two best friends and…read moreI flew down from Virginia for the day during a terrible winter storm, leaving 20 degree weather and ice everywhere and our kids all being out of school for two weeks to come down and sit by the ocean in 65 degree sunshine and drink cocktails and eat shrimp. They could have kicked sand in my face and served me cold Taco Bell and I would still have thought it was amazing because we were ECSTATIC to be down here. So take my review with a grain of salt (or sand). I thought the food was FANTASTIC, the service was amazing, the view was what I imagine heaven would look like, and it was pretty much perfection. We arrived at the restaurant just after 11 and were probably the second guests here, so we were seated immediately, after being escorted here by the friendliest members of Eden Roc hotel. Our server immediately brought a carafe of cold water and some menus and adjusted the sun shades so we could take pictures and bask in the sun like lizards. She checked up on us a few times and took our drink orders while we narrowed down what we wanted to eat. We opted for the ceviche appetizer to share, I went with the shrimp tacos, they both chose the birria quesadillas, as well as the Life's a peach, pink bikini, and espresso martini cocktails. The ceviche was so good. We loved how fresh everything tasted, it was definitely the perfect size to share and it was cold and delicious. My shrimp tacos were the best I have ever had and the shrimp was so plump and perfectly seasoned, the veggies were super fresh, and I absolutely devoured them. The birria quesadillas looked and smelled amazing, they were stuffed with filling. The drinks were STRONG. The restaurant does add on a 22% service charge that we had to ask if it was a tip - whether our amazing server got it, or was it something that the restaurant charged or what so we would know if we needed to tip her individually (because 22% is a pretty standard tip I feel, but we didn't want to accidentally tip 44% if she did get it when this was our first of many stops in a resort town...) She did say that she splits it (with the bartenders and hostess I reckon) but I would love it if it said that somewhere so we didn't have to feel awkward asking. Miami is very much a tourist/visitor town, so definitely has some different policies than we are used to. Overall though, the stunning views and delicious food will definitely have us coming back on our next girls trip.

No coming back to the table to check on drinks/water, no coming back when my brother asked for more plantain chips, etc. You will be exposed to mosquitos and possibly flies here which is expected in an open air restaurant (including the inside) during summer, I'm not fragile, just letting you know now. I found the food to be overpriced for the quality they offer. Valet is your only option here at $6.00 for up to 3 hours as of this writing. Vegetarian options are limited. They do offer daily specials. Staff is friendly and once you get their attention they will help you out quickly. One thing that I didn't care for is a staff member manhandling dogs and then not washing up. People: dogs don't belong in restaurants, you can go an hour or two without them...if you need emotional support to eat, do it in the comfort of your home. You get a nice waterfront (intracoastal) view and there is indoor seating. Located inside the 5600 Condo at 5600 Collins. I liked the gazpacho and the guac was generous. They do offer a full bar.

I was trying to confirm with the host is their a group check or if it's separate but after asking twice she didn't understand what I asked due to her response. The server came with menus and they had plenty of drink options and food even sushi. I received my drink which was a passion fruit lemonade with rum and I didn't tasted any alcohol. For a $16 drink I was disappointed and I noticed they only had one server. After our food was taking a while the server came to apologize and to let us the gyoza and sushi items was coming from a kitchen from another restaurant. I was okay with the food coming from another restaurant as long as it was hot. When my food finally came it wasn't hot and it seems like it was sitting out. To wait over 30mins for a meal that's not freshly hot was unacceptable. After the manager asked how was the food and I said it wasn't great he didn't even bother to continue the conversation just picked up the food and never returned so we can pay our bill. We had to call the server after 40mins went by without seeing her.

From the moment we arrived, the ambiance and location created the perfect atmosphere for a special evening. The food truly exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend the Miso Black Cod -- it was phenomenal and had the same rich, buttery texture as Chilean sea bass. Absolutely delicious. The Wagyu Burger was also outstanding -- freshly ground, high quality, and cooked perfectly. We also tried one of their sushi rolls topped with miso and filled with fresh tuna and salmon, and it was incredibly fresh and beautifully prepared. You can really taste the quality in every bite. Our server (I didn't catch her name -- an Asian woman, possibly in her 40s) was wonderful and made our experience even more enjoyable with her attentive and warm service. We truly loved this place and are already looking forward to coming back, especially to explore more of their sushi menu. Highly recommend!

They need to be a good sushi place to survive in this area but again like most places in the area charge 20% gratuity. This makes employees feel entitled and lose motivation to give good service. These are subsidies for the company to pay employees. The ambiance is actually good for this area. I would give 5 stars if the prices were more reasonable or if they actually had spectacular food. In any other city this would be decent sushi at half the price.

Went to the bar ordered an old fashioned which was great, my wife got their signature margarita, very cucumbery my wife didn't like it, I did not mind it. The bartender Rey was great. At 915 I finally had enough and went to the hostess to ask what was going on as they were seating people that had arrived after us. She then informs me we are the next table, in other words she forgot about us. Sat down very crowded tables, felt like we were all one big party. Couldn't hear our waitress name as the music was very loud. Asked if we wanted drinks but forgot to mention we get a welcome drink already paid for so kudos for getting more money out of me. After sitting there for another hour and half we had eaten not even half what was on the nights menu, we had eaten two little pieces of tuna tataki, two dumplings and the biggest insult the Omakase, which was 6 pieces of nigiri, 2 salmon, 2 white fish, 2 tuna. If that is your 'chefs choice' on a specialized dinner you need a new chef, felt like I was at Publix! After waiting another 15 mins we told the waitress that we had not gotten the welcome drink and the avocado salad. She apologized that the kitchen was backed up and she would see what was going on. We are now over 2 hours sitting there and no mains yet. We had enough we asked for the check and left. Ruined our entire night as it was now after 11pm on Valentine's Day there was no where to go eat so we went home hungry. We will not return to this place. Over priced Miami Beach hype! Completely disappointed.

The Spanish tapas are great for sharing and that way you can try everything too. The pan con tomate was so simple yet one of the best things on the menu. The ingredients they use are so fresh! The tuna tar tar was also one of my favorites and the sauce was drinkable it was so light and complemented the tuna so well. The octopus was not as I would have expected and in a rich cheesy sauce but still very flavorful and tender. The empanadas were perfect as well. Our server Conrad was so friendly and helped us with recommendations for wine and dishes.
