Chicken lunch plate
Ceci Q.

Y'all somehow this restaurant didn't make it into the Michelin guide and I don't know why because it deserves 5 stars. --I hope I'm not letting the secret out by bragging here but the food was so good. The chicken was so perfect it defined the word succulent. I had to ponder how they cooked this because it didn't come out all wet from stewing or whatever. And the best part it was a $6 plate (and that came with a ton of rice/ gravy and free drink).

One of my favorite places to go to. Good prices and the food is out of this world. This place deserves 10 stars. The food is always fresh and the flavors are amazing!

Bon Bagay Seafood and Grill - Literally leaves with a crumble piece of chicken.  Lalo with crabmeat.  Crabmeat where?  Disappointing!

Today my boyfriend went to buy us lunch, we eat different varieties of food. He order Lalo, which…read moreis cook with crabmeat. When he went in he advised the lady, please make sure there is seafood In there, especially if you are charging $20 for Jute leaves and crabmeat. He went to the bathroom as he waited for his order, as he was coming out she was talking to another gentleman calling him cheap (he didn't want to say anything to prevent trouble). How do you run a business allowing your staff to talk bad about a customer that is disrespectful and unprofessional. He gets home open up his food and finds chicken meat. So he calls the lady up and is like I specifically ask you to make sure there was crabmeat and extra if you can. And she goes I didn't have any so I put chicken meat. He then advised her if he told her he didn't want to order chicken so he order LaLo to get a different meat besides chicken. He advised her why would I want a different meat besides what was cook in my food. The sad part was it wasn't even a whole chicken, it was a crumble piece of chicken (that was just tossed in there) and half the top shell of the crabmeat (just a shell). She then said I didn't have anymore crabmeat and he said you should have advised me so I'm not paying $20 for jute leaves and a crumble chicken meat. He went to the restaurant to get a refund owner refused refund and the owner and staff was disrespectful. If you run your business in scamming people on false advertisement Of your food to gain profit, that's not running a business that's just theft.

Quite little Seafood Restaurant in a small Strip Mall has a kinda unique feature that you don't see too often in South Florida but is common in my "Neck Of The Woods", there's a Fresh Seafood Market attached. The menu is not large but it has some pretty good items. Some are standard South Florida menu items Calamari, Conch Salad, Fritter, Scampi are among the offerings but there are a few standouts like: Blackened Fish, Shrimp Creole, Buffalo Shrimp, Caribbean Fish Soup, Shrimp And Grits, Po Boys and a few other sandwiches and pastas round out the menu. But the star of the show are the Fresh Shucked Oysters. From Virginia and only a $1.25 during Happy Hour, these oysters are delicious and have a different taste than their primos from the Gulf Of Mexico that I grew up on.....delicious nonetheless. The great staff makes dining here a much better experience. You're warmly welcomed and presented with a little bite of Krab Salad as soon as you sit. Happy Hour starts at 4PM and ends at 7PM. Do not miss the opportunity to indulge, it's a nice gateway to the great dinner you'll enjoy.

Interior: As soon as I walked in I was shocked how small this place is. This is a take out restaurant only. The location in Atlanta is much bigger and have dine in tables and a full bar. Much nicer than this one. The Opa Locka location only have a few chairs to sit down to wait for your order. As you walk in you immediately see the order counter. They have their menus on the wall and to go menus on the counter. Nothing special inside. Food: I ordered the shrimp platter that came parsley potatoes and garlic corn. And 6pc lemon pepper wing and fries. The shrimp platter was okay. The wings were ridiculously small. It was $11 for tiny baby wings. They really shouldn't sell no one wings that tiny. I was definitely disappointed when I opened my box. It tasted more like salt & pepper wings rather than lemon pepper. I tasted a bunch of salt. The fries were a bit salty too. Location: Its located in a plaza. Right next door to a Spanish bakery and a banquet hall. The parking is decent but depending on how busy the plaza is you may not get front door parking of course. Customer service: I was greeted immediately when I walked in. It was two people working in the front, a girl and guy, they both was nice. After I ordered, the girl told me it will be about 15-20mins for my food. Which I kinda expected a bit of a wait. Despite the horribleness of the food, the customer service is what made me give this place a 3 star.

My ladyfriend and I heard about this spot through the Gram, earning a free mojito with our meal for signing up on their mailing list/ loyalty program. Speaking of service, our server was very friendly and great in timing with food recommendations and plating, even taking our picture. We came in last minute without a reservation, and were able to get a table for 2 next to the bar. They also have outside seating. Their menu is a fusion of various types of Spanish cuisines, and portions are generous. We shared various appetizers, a main & dessert and still had leftovers. As far as main course, their risotto with grilled chicken added was perfect! The chicken had a yummy slightly smoky flavor from the grill on a bed of rich, creamy rice. I believe I also tasted notes of Parmesan cheese. We also enjoyed crispy tostones, cheese balls (I skipped the crème sauce) and croquettes with a yummy pineapple sauce. Knowing that I'm a dessert fiend, I ordered the "1910 dessert": flambéed pistachio crepes with ice cream. Our waiter said they only light it up for birthdays and since her birthday was most recent..yes the staff sang for her. Highly recommend this spot for great dinner in Miami Lakes!
