    One of the restaurants - The image shows the interior of a coffee shop with a geometric-patterned counter made of wood and white tiles. Two baristas are working behind the counter, one wearing a green cap and the other in black. There are cups, straws, and coffee equipment on the counter. Large windows in the background let in natural light, and there are hanging pendant lights and a wooden ceiling structure. Customers are visible, including one wearing a mask and a cap.

    Citadel is a spacious and beautiful Food Hall, Cocktail Bar and Marketplace in one, with lots of restaurants and stalls with food, drinks, and dessert options from local chefs and vendors, and a Rooftop Bar with extensive views of the city. The Marketplace have small shops and boutiques. It also has live entertainment, and DJ's to entertain the guests. Service was good, lively and welcoming atmosphere, and a great place to unwind and relax whatever time of the day you visit this lovely place. Check it out!

    Wow a food hall that actually has great food, drinks and impeccable service with a rooftop to boot. This is a hidden gem in Little River. You can choose from sushi to oysters, and even grab gelato for dessert at The Citadel. Eat downstairs and enjoy the bustle of the food hall or pop upstairs to the rooftop and enjoy the views. You can order anything from Downstairs food court to be delivered upstairs. No scrambling between vendors they will do it for you while you sip a cocktail, relax and enjoy the vibe. Don't forget to check the thrift shop on your way out which is full Of nostalgic treasures from 80s action figures to vintage playboy mags. Definitely coming back to try the raw bar and maybe pick up a new plant!

    Maki-San in Citadel
    Axelle-Gabrielle M.

    I love this place! There are so many options of food to choose from and they are all so different and delicious. We ordered from Maki-San & Pho Sho and the food at both places were made quickly and they were fresh. At Maki-San for the hand rolls and crispy rice the total was $35.96 after a $5.99 tip. At Pho Sho the total was $21.87 after a $3 tip. Pho Sho has a happy hour special until 7pm where you can purchase 1 crispy chicken Bao for $5. Coming on a Friday night is great, but you will have to pay for street parking or park in the lot directly behind the building. I recommend the street parking because it is cheaper, although the parking in the lot is secured by a gate. The music is also very loud so if you are looking for a more quiet atmosphere, I recommend coming during day time because they start playing music louder in the evening.

    We came to visit phosho and it's always delish!!! Service great and fast m! We tried Doña Posad for the 1st time for deserts and we are very glad we did!!! We took home a 4 leches dessert, a brownie and a guava cookie ....don't miss out on this delicious place!!!

    I just love the ambiance here. It's great open space, community dinning and food selection. There is quite a variety of food options I go for the Pho, it's warm, great flavor and nice chucks of beef. It has all the necessary toppings and fixing love the Pho. Order, pay, enter your phone number, get a text when your food is ready. Friendly staff even the chef was nice and friendly.

    We decided to get together for happy hour for my gym. This food court is super close. So many options to choose from. We went to the rooftop bar where they have plenty of seating. It is shaded which is great! You can order from downstairs and they will bring it to you. I got the lychee martini. So good and refreshing. They added a 20% tip because of our table size. They didn't mention it when I was paying (grrr). Other than that, I'd def go back!

    The Citadel is now one of my favorite food halls. The ambiance is exactly what you want in a spot like this. Low lighting, spacious seating, a giant screen playing sports, and great vibes all around. The first floor is full of different restaurants, and they have a rooftop bar for when you want to switch up the scenery. I even noticed they host activities like bingo on certain nights. Service was good at each place I tried and the food came out fast. The areas are kept clean which is crucial for a food hall. What I tried: Mini chimichanga from Gueritos Tex Mex was more of a cheesy eggroll. I wish it came with some sauce to dip in or a little extra something but it was pretty decent. Stuffed onigiri from Maki-San Sushi was good. Nothing out of the ordinary, but good taste. I'll probably branch out to a different item next time just to explore. !Honey jerk chicken bites from Manjay. This is a must try! If you like food with a nice kick and a whole lot of flavor, this is it. Plantain fries were unique and the chicken was just... wow! There are so many vendors I didn't get to try (yet), but I'll absolutely be back. The Citadel is a foodie's playground with good vibes. Cons: - It's Miami, of course you'll have to pay for parking but there are plenty of spaces. - Prices for the food is as expected, a bit on the pricey side for what you get but nothing too crazy. They do have happy hour and some places have deals of the day so that's a plus.

    I went with friends for happy hour Saturday. The ambiance and music were good. We sat at the roof top, ordered drinks an appetizers, the food was ok, I didn't lime the crispy spicy tuna rice. The server was on point, our waitress was polite, respectful and helpful. I liked the DJ.

    Great food, great vibes, good service, love the rooftop. Everything great until I saw an extra $48 on credit card. Now in dispute phase. Was advised by my CC company to contact them and give them a chance to make it right, which I have. They also said if it happened to me it may be a recurring issue so best to advise them. Let's see if they make it right or if I have to escalate the issue. When you dine on the rooftop you can choose from any restaurant but pay one bill to your server on the rooftop.

Picture this - you walk into a tropical oasis and have the option of cocktails from Jaguar sun, wine selections from Bad Seed - a new wine bar pop up from Karina and the folks at Niu Wine -, rotating food from some of Miami's most loved chefs and last but not least - MUSIC! You'd think these folks just took your best friends magical back yard and created the most fun party in their house, but instead its at Understory and you can enjoy this oasis weekly on Thursday's and Fridays. I went for the first time last Thursday where I got to try a rum punch but with Mezcal that was delish. Then I moved on to a selection of delish wines and pizza by Flour and Weirdoughs. To say the vibe is impeccable is an understatement. I happily stayed until they closed at midnight, passing the time hanging out with friends and listening to the most fire playlist. They also have live jazz that starts at 9, which you can't really hear from the wine bar area since the space is so large, and DJs later in the evening as well as Friday. You can enjoy free entry before 8:30 pm. The best way to stay up to date on their weekly pop ups is to follow them on IG at @Understorymia. Can't wait to return!

A large group of us gathered here for dinner and late-night drinks on a Friday night. This is a fun, happening spot. It's ideal if you're looking for a casual, laid-back night out in Miami. The rooftop can handle a lot of people. My wife and I ordered food downstairs at Manjay, the Caribbean/Haitian stall at the food court, and took it up to the rooftop (there's an elevator). You are allowed to do this at the Citadel (take food from the food court up to the roof). Staff on the rooftop will bus trays and tableware. I recommend Manjay, by the way, and left a review for it separately here on Yelp. On the rooftop, I had a couple of martinis, one extra dirty. They were well made and delicious. Our friends had a variety of drinks including beer (e.g., Monopolio Mexican amber lager). Pint glasses were served iced over which is certainly nice in the South Florida heat. Service was good. The staff was nice. Several of the chairs had holes in the seats, so that was annoying. The vibe was lively and friendly. Good music.

The zucchini pizza is so fun and different and the regular New York inspired slice is also great. Do not sleep on the foccacia - it's amazing. Service here is always friendly and there is a ton of wine to choose from. They also have a full bar with indoor and outdoor seating. You can buy wine here to enjoy at the restaurant or also pick it up to go. I also saw on Instagram they have happy hour and pizza specials so make sure to look it up before you go so you can snag a deal. The outdoor area is really spacious with plenty of seating for groups. It is right by a train so you will hear that go by, something to keep in mind if you have little ones. This is a solid neighborhood spot that I find myself coming back to over and over.
