It appears those…read morewho've given Porterhouse the lowest ratings and have been the most critical, seem unhappy that this eatery isn't like it used to be "back in the day". While I'd not visited Porterhouse before, when we came here recently we actually considered it a happy find. We were in Aventura looking for a late dinner spot on a Thursday, and were originally planning to go to Houston's, but noted it closes early. An internet search for steakhouses turned up Porterhouse which was open until late, so we decided to check it out. They sat us right away, together on a couch at a table usually meant for 4 and we were given the food menu, cocktail menu and their wine list. We decided to start with a cocktail, which were well-poured and reasonably priced. We then ordered the burrata and toasted bread as an appetizer, and for our entrees we requested the NY strip, branzino fish, mac & cheese and asparagus, all to share. We also had a bottle of wine with dinner. Everything we had was good, and the service was attentive throughout our time here. The only real disappointments were: 1) The sparse presentation of the burrata salad (see photo). It was described in the menu as "creamy 4 oz burrata served with heirloom tomato, ripe peaches, olive oil, white balsamic reduction and fresh graded hazelnuts topped with micro greens". What we were served was just a ball of burrata with some un-ripe tomato wedges and a sprinkling of nuts, but the presentation was certainly lacking vs. many other restaurants that offer that dish. 2) I personally found the branzino to be a bit flavorless, again, comparing that fish here to what we've had elsewhere. Aside from those few notes, everything we had was fine, and the NY strip was VERY flavorful and tender. Prices here are more or less in-line with other better steakhouses in the Miami area, but we were surprised by how reasonably priced some of their wines were at Porterhouse compared to many other restaurants. Their wine pricing alone may be enough to lure us back. This restaurant was listed as being open until 2 a.m. that night, but surprisingly, they began calling last call for the kitchen a few hours before that. Also, note they include an automatic 20% service charge on all checks. We chose to sit on the patio in front (which was great with the ocean breeze and the view of the waterfalls in front of the buildings across from this place), but when I went inside to use the restroom it looked quite lively and fun, and next time we may choose to sit at the bar. They had karaoke on that night and then changed to a DJ, and the very large bar and indoor dining area were quite full and the patrons appeared to be having a good time.

The chicken wings, ordered extra extra crispy, were good. However, the cocktails were too sweet, &…read morethe crispy artichoke was disappointing. Also, be aware, 20% gratuity is added. While expected for large parties, it was not expected for a party of 4. Unless you're only looking for wings, skip it. Plenty of better options!

The customer service is excellent--attentive, friendly, and always making sure you're having a great experience. The ambiance is effortlessly elegant, with chic décor that adds to the sophisticated yet relaxed vibe. The drinks are where this place truly shines. I had the Mt. Fuji, a mezcal-based cocktail, and it was absolutely delicious--perfectly balanced with just the right smoky kick. You can tell the bartenders really know their craft, creating well-thought-out drinks that are both tasty and beautifully presented. Whether you're stopping by for a casual drink or looking for a classy spot to unwind, the St. Regis Bar won't disappoint. It's the kind of place that makes you want to come back for more, not just for the drinks but for the whole experience. Highly recommend!

We walked through the lobby to the restaurant, which is situated overlooking the Haulover inlet (far enough away from the nude beach so your meal is not ruined, LOL!). There is indoor and outdoor seating; both have great views. You can also sit at the bar. The vibe is upscale nautical. The server was great; friendly and just attentive enough! We opted to sit inside as the humidity level was near 100% and there were storm clouds brewing. If you opt to sit inside, bring a cover up as the AC is working very well here! During our meal, the usual afternoon storm arrived and provided a dramatic show, complete with theatrical lightning! We had the ceviche and watermelon feta salad to start. The ceviche was super fresh and beautifully tart. The watermelon on the salad was at peak ripeness! Next, we had the chipotle rubbed shrimp tacos - two tacos with two giant shrimp nestled inside alongside avocado. I did not partake of the cheeseburger, but Larry needed a nap when we got home, so I think it did it's job. The fries that came with it were excellent. I'm not a fan of flan - I dislike the texture - but the taste and presentation were beautiful. The sorbet was a surprising standout. They were out of blood orange, so I was offered mango or lime instead. I have a mango tree that fruits all summer and I am sick of mango at this point, so I opted for lime. It was unbelievably delicious! Tart, creamy even though it's dairy free, absolutely refreshing! In all, Artisan serves basic food executed very well in a beautiful setting with expert service. Well worth it!

We decided to try the Miami Spice menu, honestly, that's the main reason we picked this spot and it turned out to be a great deal. From appetizers to dessert, everything was enjoyable. While there wasn't a standout "wow" moment with the food, there were no disappointments either just a solid, satisfying lunch. Outside of the Miami Spice pricing, the regular menu does lean on the higher side, so for us, this special menu made it well worth it. Overall, it was a nice afternoon out with good food, great service, and a beautiful view.

Not sure if it was because my friend's band was playing so it was full of Argentinian people as well as a celebrity, or if that's the usually crowd. Any which way, it was a blast. The bar is run by two Argentinian women who were awesome. Very sweet. I just had one drink because came from a happy hour so was already primed. I ordered the popular Argentine drink which is Fernet with Coke which is usually in the proportion of 70/30 but these girls have a heavy pour so more like 60/40. I also ordered empanadas which were delicious!! I had a Malbec meat empanada and a cheese and onion one. Unfortunately I live far from this place but if I lived close, it would definitely be a great place to hang out on weekends. Enjoy!! Ps. I came with my American friend who does live in the area and loved both the Argentinian people's vibe and the bar's vibe. He said he will be back on his own.
