CHILLED OYSTERS
Sabina C.

The food is really good here but the service is Miami slow, so if you're going to come here, make sure you have enough time to waste. Even with a coursed meal which I've done both, expect to be here for a good +2hrs. Cocktails are really good here. The menu is pretty diverse and I've tried about everything for lunch & dinner. I haven't had a bad dish. I would recommend this place, super cute too!

The vibes was definitely vibing at Swan. We went as a group for a bachelorette weekend and they made our bride feel special, so we loved that! The atmosphere was well kept and decorated, and the inside of the restaurant smelled very nice. We sat outside but I went inside on the way to the bathroom. We ate from the fall menu and I had the Parker house rolls (fresh, warm, soft, buttery and amazing) and the avocado crab Louie salad. The salad was very good but the black truffle fries were even better!

My experience at Swan was very lovely. The waiter took the time out to go over some of the menu items and recommended the Lumache pasta which was delicious. The brunch options for Miami Spice were great and all dishes were a perfect portion. The Lychee sangria was very refreshing and I enjoyed the drink. The service was quick when our orders was being taken and the food came out in a reasonable time. The ambiance is very picture worthy and a perfect place to celebrate a milestone or occasion. We had reservations so we were seated right away and you are able to have a conversation.

Was visiting Miami and wanted to check this place out. It was pretty empty for a Saturday night but still a nice vibe. I like that they place good music. The food was good, but not anything special for the price point. I think you go more for the aesthetics and vibe. My espresso martini was absolutely delicious! Service was pretty decent.

Cute restaurant & good vibes. I went for a late brunch and had a nice variety of food which were all pretty tasty. Their cocktails are also pretty good.

From the moment we got there it wasn't a good experience. Our reservation was for 10pm and we got sat at 10:45pm. Then when we sat took about 20 mins for the server to come to us for drinks. We ordered our drinks and that took 40 mins to come. Once it came I ordered another round and NEVER got it, a whole hour went by and I said never mind I don't want it anymore. We had finished our food already. The food was good but it's not worth the experience I had. The environment was good. Music was good there was a DJ and a show outside. I wasn't mad at that at all. I would only go for the club part. Not for dinner ever again.

Veal Parmigiana
Rachel S.

Food and drinks were incredible. The veal parmigiana was seasoning and perfect. Worth sharing because it's such a large portion. Service was excellent and the vibe was cute inside and very eclectic outside. Loved the music while just waiting at the bar to be seated.

COCONUT CRAB CAKE BENEDCIT

Lovely time at Swan! I personally love brunch and Swan did not disappoint. We had a large group of 8 guests and it seemed as though our server was new but he definitely tried his best and was very attentive. Swan is a staple restaurant while visiting the area. Drinks: I tried a couple of drinks from the table but didn't live any. I ended up with a mimosa with pineapple juices. Food: Everything was spectacular. Blackened Grouper sandwich - I did not try this but it got rave reviews at the table. Crispy Chicken Sandwich - Really nicely seasoned and the chicken was impeccably cooked. The chicken was a breast which can sometimes seem dry but this chicken was dry at all. Crab Benedict - No complaints here. Strawberry Pancake - The package was fluffy and delicious. My only reservation would be the amount of syrup on the pancake. Others who ate it had no complaints Cinnamon Roll Waffle - A little sweet but I think that was to be expected. Either way, it was yummy. Egg White Omelette - They lost me at goat cheese because I am not a fan but cheese aside, this was a really great omelette. I will absolutely return.

In Miami for a few days and decided to check out Swan. We weren't disappointed. It's in the design district so it's amongst other chic restaurants and shops. We had reservations and were quickly sat. I was surprised that it was pretty scarce but I hear Mondays are the popular night- with the fire dancers and DJ. Service was attentive. Everyone enjoyed their meals. It's trendy and chic. Very eye catching in the patio. Would love to come back again when I'm in Miami.

CRAB CAKE BENEDICT
Aneesha R.

I came to Swan for brunch on my birthday this year and was impressed with how accommodating the restaurant was - we were able to make a very large reservation with no problems, service was excellent, and they even gave me a little shot of one of their signature cocktails with a sparkler for my birthday! We felt well attended-to the entire time. I was not super impressed with the food quality nor value, however. I chose the coconut crab cake benedict, and while yummy, the brunch portion sizes weren't satisfactory. I would maybe give this place another try!

Crispy Artichokes
Renata G.

Came for a late lunch during the week and it was eerie empty. We sat at the bar for quick service and ordered a bunch of plates to share. The only thing I liked was the crispy artichokes. They had the most disgusting pizza I've ever had, especially the pistachio one. I'd rather get dollar slice pizza than Swan's any day. I guess their thing is the parties upstairs? Idk but I would definitely not show up for the food. I swiped around the photos on their business page and realized this place is like Cheesecake Factory that's pretending to be high end. Smoke & mirrors Miami vibe.

Drinks

We came here this past weekend for Miami Spice Menu and I must admit, they are very generous with their 3 course meal and portion! We loved both the outside and inside of the restaurant! We started off with their hamachi and had their Bronzino as an entree! The food is really good! Don't forget to order the tiger prawn shrimp! Amazing service and great drinks! Don't forget to order their espresso martinis!

LUMACHE Vodka Pasta with added chicken
Hannah R.

Ambiance was beautiful outside. Inside was less impressive. The music was extremely loud while the dj was playing. It was relieving when she finished. Our server was decent. Food came out in a decent amount of time. However, our side of broccolini came out 20 minutes after our entrees which defeats the purpose. The frito misto was perfect, exactly what you expect with a yummy aioli. My watermelon smash was very well balanced and refreshing. However, my girlfriend's passionfruit lemonade was tart and needed an added agave syrup. My vodka pasta was quite salty. The added chicken was cooked very well. My girlfriend's salmon was also salty/tart. The broccolini was perfect. We ordered the cobbler for desert and received two scoops of vanilla ice cream to accompany it and that was good, what you expect from a cobbler. Overall an ok experience, great photo op, not worth the $220 we spent.

After you valet, be sure to use the restrooms because it's a journey to and from your table. Now, this is where we thought we were at a self service restaurant. After being seated there was no waiter in sight, the table next to us speaking loud and clear that they have been waiting for their check for over twenty minutes. After 15 minutes, still no server in sight. I got up to go order from the bar, behind me comes our server. He took our order and brought our drinks and that was the end of him. The Pina Colada was a bit too sweet, the rosé, perfect. After we finished our drinks I went in search for our waiter once again. He was nowhere to be found, so I asked another server if we could order a salad, she insisted on finding him for us. Out of nowhere he appeared, and I no longer had any patience. We asked to move tables, for a new server and this is where a true five star service started. We ended with a fantastic, attentive and friendly waiter. He brought us drinks in a timely manner, checked up on us often and reminded us that good service does exist, just not with our first server. Overall, the service needs some serious attention here. We are not sure we would visit again. There are many other places that have great service every time not just sometimes. Cheers!

I have to say that I found the whole experience strange. We were sat at the bar and after consulting with the server because of a gluten allergy, we went with the summer tasting menu with the wine pairings. The server was very personable and on top of her game, so I don't think any of the issues we had were her fault. We ordered cocktails to start. I love Money 47 gin, so I asked for a martini. I was shocked at the end of the night when that cost $48! I understand that it is a premium gin, but that's crazy. We often go to another Michelin-recognized restaurant and their double monkey martini is no more than $30. I asked at the end of our meal because I assumed it was rung in incorrectly, but nope! Also, we did the tasting menu and we were not half way through our cocktail before they pushed the first wine as part of the tasting. It was a prosecco. For an additional $140 for the pairing, I would have expected a champagne. Now to the food. It was mostly good, but not exceptional. For instance, the crudo did not use the best fish. I could not eat two pieces of the fish because it was too tough. This was the first course, and I was immediately put off. The caviar and sauce were very good, but the protein was unacceptable. I said something about it, but no real apology. With this level of experience, I would have expected a manager or chef to come out and say something. The rest of the meal was a mix of highs and lows. The pasta was amazing. The trout was ok. The rabbit was ok, but the rest of the dish was great. For Miami, the service was better than most, but not great. I didn't feel like the severs knew the dishes, but they could recite the ingredients and intentions. I was very much surprised that not one of our glasses of wine was served by the som (was there one?). For us, this restaurant was not equivalent to the price and one time was enough for us.

Ruka Winewood has been on my radar for a while and I recently found out they have happy hours between 6-9pm, so what a better opportunity to give it a try. For a Wednesday night, they had a fair number of customers. I sampled their happy hour red blend pour. It was mid body, somewhat complex but low on tannins which allowed for easy and smooth drinking. The fruit content was moderate. It was the perfect wine for an early night, to sip and hang out with friends. I pretty much enjoyed the two glasses I had. Service was not the best to be honest. During the 1 hour I was there, no one checked on me. No one asked me if I wanted more wine, water or another pizza, etc. I was hopping to have their charcuterie board paired with wine, but they had no charcuterie. I asked for the pizza options and hey only had one out of the 3 options on the menu, only the cheese pizza. The pizza is not the best looking pizza, but it tasted delicious. The cheese was sort of smokey, that was delish. I would have that pizza again. Summarizing, I'm coming back pretty soon for their red wine, at $5/glass, you can't beat that up, specially when it is such high quality. I hope they have the charcuterie next time.
