    El sabor de la comida es excelente, pedimos ceviche, lomo saltado, un torta de chocolate y un chilcano de fresa, lo unico de mejorar aqui es que en el lomo saltado no viene mucha carne. Del ambiente es bonito, pero hay zancudos, es la segunda vez que voy y segunda vez que sufro con eso. En la atencion todos son super amables pero tardan demasiado para atender, tanto como para hacer el pedido como para traer la comida!

    A friend invited me here this weekend, we were excited knowing that it was new. We saw the beautiful pictures on social media. Unfortunately, we had a huge let down but are willing to give it another chance and give it some time to warm up since they are only 2 weeks old. The restaurant is beautiful inside with a decent outdoor patio. Lots of blues, gold hues and intimate vibes. Service was terrible and if you read my reviews, you know I never say this. It wasn't our lovely waiters fault (Veronica) she was amazing. However, the entire team lacked leadership and training. They all seemed confused but the managers were scolding them in front of the customers and not helpful at all. I disliked seeing that so much. It's embarrassing to the employee and person dining. They should have pulled the waitress to the side instead. They forgot my drink, I received it at the end of the meal. Service took forever and the person next to me got served raw duck in which she returned and they brought back the same duck that had a bite on it cooked instead of getting a new one. On to the food. Here is where it gets better and the reason they got 3 stars because the service alone was 1. We ordered the following: Taquitos Peruanos- purple corn tortilla, spicy tuna (wasn't spicy) avocado & mango gel. We loved this appetizer. The mango gel was yummy. I would order this again. Conchas a la Batayaki - dynamite sauce, chalaquita scallop, sweet potato. Was a different more modern take on this peruvian dish. It was good. Arroz a la Chiclayana - duck breast, cilantro fried rice, avocado, egg, squash, chocolate. If you like duck this is good. Luckily mine was cooked well. Ceviche clasico - classic ceviche. It was good but not my favorite. Dessert: Suspiro limeno- lemon custard style dessert, i loved this. We forcefully had to park in Valet. I have no idea if they have guest parking because the restaurant is on the bottom of a residential building i did not see extra parking spaces. Valet was $14.

    at first restaurant was very empty and we disn't like the vibe. then the waitress and her assistant approach to us , and everything change. the music at background was cool the service was amazing. drinks are tasty and the most important , the food was good , dishes are really large. overall we will go back again. It was intimate , quiet. the desert by the way was owsome. This chef ‍ got the touch.

    Suspiro Limeño - Dulce the leche on the bottom with meringue type desserts on top with cinnamon!

    This is my second time at UMA! The first time we had an amazing experience. Our server Ximena was very attentive, kind and professional. All the dishes she recommended were delicious! Since our experience the first time was wonderful, we decided to come back again. The presentation is so unique and the food tastes as great as the presentation looks! I will keep recommending this restaurant to family and friends!

    The Valet Parking is a nightmare, so we left. I hope they fix the parking situation or else move to a new location.

    Pretty good place, from outside you can't see the the nice decor inside…read more Ambience was pretty good even tho music was a bit to high. Service was quick and attentive. Even tho menu was a bit hard to understand if you r not familiar with this type of food, everything that we order was good. Definitely recommend to try some Mediterranean food

    Baku Cafe Bar and Restaurant has the challenge of being a plaza-based restaurant, meaning the main…read more"view" is mostly the parking lot and the line of Sunny Isles buildings nearby. Still, they did a solid job making the outdoor seating feel inviting with nicely arranged patio furniture and decor that creates a more comfortable atmosphere. Just keep in mind that the patio sits along a pedestrian arcade area, so expect people constantly passing by during your meal. Service was good overall -- attentive enough with no major complaints, but nothing particularly memorable either. Food, however, was a mixed experience. Maybe we didn't choose the restaurant's strongest dishes, but if something is on the menu, it should still meet expectations. The beef filet mignon kebab was cooked to the requested medium rare temperature, which was appreciated, but the meat itself lacked tenderness. The kutabi was decent but didn't leave much of an impression. The soup was probably the weakest part of the meal, tasting more like reheated leftovers from the previous day rather than something freshly prepared.
