    The food was amazing. We most definitely wanted to try a few options on the menu and nothing disappointed. The restaurant is very spacious the staff were amazing and the service was excellent. I will most definitely be coming back.

    Great hh deal! The pizza was standard for a margarita pizza and huge for the hh price. The calamari was awesome- so fresh and crispy with salty flavor. Cute place too with outdoor seating. The service was a bit slow but other than that would return for the hh again.

    Beautiful restaurant inside and out it is decorated in a very elegant style. It is a very large restaurant with private side rooms that are also gorgeous. The music and the vibe was outstanding. The food was delicious and fresh. The service was also good. The only downside is that it's located in downtown across from the are a and parking is a challenge.

    Came here for a cute Sunday midday date and was pleasantly surprised with the whole experience. The inside is decorated wonderfully and really adds to the experience. I highly suggest sharing a pizza and pasta as their portions pretty big. The pasta and pizza was fresh and full of flavor. Only con is they don't automatically provide you with bread, that's extra. The server was attentive and the food came out pretty quick. I will definitely be coming back for more pasta!

    If opera is originally from Italy, doesn't it make sense to go to an Italian restaurant after the show? After going to a performance this last Saturday at the Arsht Center, my friend and I ended up here for a late dinner. We sat outside on the patio and service was superb! Even though we arrived close to closing time, we were able to get our different pics from the menu and our server even brought me birthday gelato complete with the candle. I'm a red sauce kind of guy so I ordered their penne arrabiatta with add-on meatballs. The noodles had a great texture and the "gravy" was definitely spicy. I loved it! I nursed a rum old-fashioned, which was well blended and smooth. It was even garnished with a maraschino cherry. As far as my other friends's dishes, one of them ordered a salad, which, though I didn't try, looked generously portioned and well presented. My other friend ordered a fungi pizza, which was large enough for her to get takeout and share with our group at the table. Though I'm not a vegetarian., I did enjoy the slice I tried.

    I have been a fan of Serafina since I first ate at one in NYC. I was in Downtown Miami with a work friend. She never ate at any Serafina before. I also enjoy the one in Aventura but this was my first time eating at this new location. We ordered some beers which were good. We also ordered a Caesar salad to split. I was surprised when we received a very small salad. But it turns out they only charged $10 when it said $18 on the menu. A small salad isn't even listed. So we ordered another one. It was delicious. We shared the chicken parmigiana. It is excellent. The cheese tastes so good. The sauce on the spaghetti is absolutely delicious. I asked our server if they sell.it by the jar but I don't think she knew what I meant. Anyway, the chicken parmigiana is enough to share as you can see in the picture. I do think they skipped on the spaghetti, even if we didn't share. Overall, a great restaurant with a nice atmosphere.

    Nice high end Italian restaurant. They had a classy bar setup and some decent specials. It was very full, barely one seat open. The bar tender that took care of us was a little rough around the edges. Wasn't really hearing our order correctly, and forgot to bring out a drink. For a high end spot, would have expected a different level of training or screening; however, she also wasn't rude. Maybe just an off night, which is human. The truffle fries were really nice! I'd come back here to give it another shot, and especially try the food.

    I should have read my review from the first time I was here They definitely are very consistent at this Serafina location. Food was great, service was terrible.. even more so then last time. To the point where mid our appetizers we wanted to get up and leave. Even my niece said, she doesn't seem to want to serve us ‍ and of course having been a party of 11, her tip was already secured. Since we were there to celebrate my hubbies bday, we just ordered something fast to be able to pick up and go. The manager was very nice and polite, but again... these managers need to sit down with their staff and properly train them. I will definitely not be going back. **BEWARE*** They DONT do refills on their sodas, so you will be chanted $5 for a cup of ice.

    I popped in for lunch since I'd been promising myself I'd do so each time I walk by. I wanted to take advantage of the $35 lunch special that I see advertised. We decided to just sit at the bar. Once in, we loved the ambiance but my sis and I were neither moved by the lunch menu offerings and opted for the main menu. I had the filet pappardelle that did not disappoint and the Serafina Star for my cocktail. Also really good. The bartender Crystal was very pleasant and helpful as well. I'll certainly be back.

    The food was fresh, delicious and so tasty. My son who is a picky eater enjoyed it all.

    We dined in the evening during a RNB event that created great vibes. The aesthetics and the seating were pleasing to the eye. Our server name was Tammy but she wasn't very attentive to our table but we asked another guy for assistance whenever she wasn't around. Since it was ladies night on Thursday, complimentary truffle fries and mini martinis were offered. One of the other servers gave the truffle fries to us and when our server Tammy came back she informed us the martinis were not complimentary the Ladies night promotion is applied only at the bar. This was after the drinks had already been served to us. She told us she'll apply a discount to correct it. Items ordered: Calamari-5/10(soft,chewy no flavor) Penne All'arrabbiata spicy marinara (this was in fact very spicy but I enjoyed it) Penne alla vodka with chicken 9/10 Truffle fries(fresh delicious) 10/10 The cake was so scrumptious I would definitely return back

    Sooo yummy!! Came here for lunch with my coworkers and it was delish! I had the Ravioli and it was so tasty. The portions are pretty big actually so well worth it. Will definitely come back again!

    Outdoor seating area is huge.

    This Italian restaurant/bar is located across the street from Kaseya Center and is definitely worth trying, especially around Happy Hour, which should be going on right before the evening Heat game. The Happy Hour menu has standouts like the meatballs, Margarita pizza, and Mussels for $12. You can also pick off their extensive menu. The outdoor seating area is large and comfy. The interior is also very special and upscale. What really brings this eating experience together is the friendly and courteous staff.

The speakeasy atmosphere is outstanding--walking through the iconic red phone booth feels like stepping into another era, only with much better bourbon. Victoria was an absolute rockstar. She took some fantastic photos of our group (which is no small feat after a couple of perfectly made Manhattans), anticipated everything we needed, and somehow managed to make us feel like regulars on our first visit. Speaking of Manhattans... they're exactly the way we like them: balanced, boozy, and dangerously easy to order "just one more." Pair that with a great cigar, comfortable seating, and an atmosphere that somehow feels both upscale and relaxed, and you've got one of the best spots in Miami to unwind. We came for a drink. We stayed for the cigars. We left wondering if we should install a red phone booth at home. We'll definitely be back--and hopefully Victoria will still be there to remind us that "one more Manhattan" is always a questionable life decision.

Just try anything or ask.to be surprised. Remy was our server and he is freaking awesome and has skills. He helped us choose our cocktails cause everything was sounding like a vibe. The food options sound delish and the sliders and pizza seemed to be a hit as we saw that mostly. We were here for drinks though and we stuck to it. Only down fall for us is that we aren't cigar smokers, so the room was filled with it as we didn't know its a cigar lounge as well, but to each his own. Come drink eat and ber merry!

The bouncers outside were nice to us, and the line to get in was not too bad. There is only one elevator going up, but it's just a short ride up. Once we got up, the music is loud, the lights are going, it's dark, and it's packed. All great signs of a solid and popular spot. I don't drink alcohol anymore, but my friends were able to get attention pretty quickly from the bartenders. There was a section there where I felt like I was being packed like sardines, but once we moved we were in comfortable spot. My feet started killing me since I wore heels the whole night, so to my delight, I found out there was an area to sit, and that pretty much saved my feet from falling off. The rooftop is such a vibe. We were able to get a section with a table by the balcony railing and see the downtown area in all it's glory with the lights and the Brickell sign in the background. It was thee perfect spot for photos, and we took advantage of it and had our mini photoshoot there on the spot. I was rather surprised that this place started to shut down by 2 am, I had the impression that FL goes until 5 in the morning, but it was no big deal since we were starting to wind our evening down anyways. I am thankful we got to experience going here, it truly made our night special for our bride to be.

The Mule is a standout, and the White Cloud (gin, sake, lime, and yuzu foam) was lovely. For food, the buffalo chicken empanadas were tasty. I'd skip the pork bao buns, as the meat was overcooked, but our server easily swapped them for the hamachi crudo, which was fantastic. ​Service was very pleasant, and the music set a great vibe at the perfect volume. Overall, it is a great rooftop spot that I would recommend.

I find this disappointing as I always like to go to try different dishes from the standard menu. To me it shows that the restaurants that do a special menu are normally more innovative. Had I known this beforehand I would not have come. Having said that the food I sampled was decent enough. My appetizer was the Korean chicken which was plentiful. My main was the ribs. I was surprised to see that it was just that only meat. I expected there to have been a bit of a garnish or greens. Between the ribs and chicken my whole diet was meat. The dessert was two choices. I went with the chocolate cake. The hocolate cake slice was the smallest slice I've ever been served in a restaurant. I really liked the decor. I also really liked the music that was being played. Service was efficient. The ladies toilets had a damp smell. Overall I was disappointed and would not visit again.

It's located in the heart of Brickell close to Brickell City Centre and next to Talkin' Tacos. I've passed it many times and never been before. Our comedy show was at 9pm so we got there early and you enter a bar area with a small dance floor and DJ booth. The door guy told us to wait next to the doors by DJ booth. They opened the doors a little after 9pm and let us in. There's this whole other room in the back with tons of seating, a stage and bar area. Some of the decor felt a bit outdated, but it was still a cool vibe nonetheless. The space is so big and has so much potential for improvement, We snagged seating in the middle area. There were several cozy couples seating in front of the stage but 2nd row, we didn't want to get picked on the entire night. Lol. The two main hosts of the comedy show looked like they worked at Blackbird Ordinary as they had staff jackets on. They were in our opinion, the FUNNIEST!!! Everyone also got free shots with their tickets. Nice bonus! Lemondrop shots!!! Whew, it's been a hot minute since I did shots. Ha. After they started the show, they introduced several local or out of towner comedians and honestly, it was a good diverse crew of comedians. I wish we got a list of the comedians as I would like to check out their social media pages or follow them. Overall, we had such a good time and laughed so hard our faces hurt. This comedy show was like a hidden gem. Glad we found them and would love to come back and check out other comedians.
