For the amount of colour they incorporate in their decor and menu, it's certainly not reflected in their cocktails - Would love to see them expand their mocktail menu

The space has this underground, hidden-away feeling, and all the comic-style, collectible card-inspired decor and menus are incredibly cool. There are so many little details that add to the experience. The service was excellent. They seated us right away, and the drinks were thoughtfully crafted, beautifully presented, and delicious. I especially loved the way each cocktail was brought out and explained, down to the ingredients and details. It almost had that fine-dining level of presentation and attention, but with cocktails. The combination of the atmosphere, creative drinks, and great service made the whole experience feel unique. Definitely a great date spot and somewhere I would absolutely come back to.

Beautiful dim lighting surrounds the place, there's card games for you and your friends. There's board games for you and your partner. Wine, cocktails, food and an ambiance that has you feeling like you just stumbled into a little spot in Europe. Completely outside venue under shade, the room is filled with different couches, seats, tables, a DJ booth and a bar area. I had such a good time that J forgot to take photos. The service was alright, but im sure these guys get busy. We had originally planned to stay for an hour, next thing you know, we're there for 3.

Came here for an Eventbrite jazz event and I'm convinced it's the only way I would've found this…read morejoint because talk about "hidden". It was giving either Sottovoce or Magie vibes if you've been to any of those. The jazz music was outside and it was really hot. So I ordered a cocktail by the name of Pampa y la Via that was both refreshing and delicious but lacking a punch unfortunately. I then just decided to drink a few glasses of white wine which is my go to anyway. Got a little hungry but didn't want to eat heavy. Wanted more like to munch on something so I ordered the aperitivo plate consisting of stuffed pizza bites, one with peppers and one pepperoni. Reminded me of Annie's pizza poppers but obviously elevated. From trying that small app I gathered that pizza is one of their specialties so I'll be coming back to test that theory. The waitstaff is very attentive and welcoming. Outside area is very dim lit and kinda romantic and intimate if you ask me so it would be perfect for a date too. They do have a private parking lot but it isn't too big and street parking is non existent so get there at least 20 minutes before your reservation, if you make any.

The Key is the rooftop bar located on top of the Citadel food hall in Little River, just north of…read moreLittle Haiti. 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 drinks I will say weren't my favorite and I didn't eat any food.

My partner and I were exploring a new area in Miami Shores and decided to try Sins Gastrobar for an…read moreearly dinner. The restaurant is conveniently located right on the downtown strip with free street parking nearby, which is always a plus. The atmosphere was inviting from the moment we walked in. The host welcomed us and told us we could sit anywhere we liked, so we chose a quieter table away from the bar area. There is also a stage section that looked perfect for live music nights, although there was no entertainment during our visit. Overall, the ambiance was trendy, relaxed, and had a great neighborhood feel. They also appeared to have some very good happy hour specials for those who drink. Our server was very sweet and offered several recommendations. We decided to share the burrata appetizer and the skirt steak dinner. The steak arrived first and looked absolutely beautiful. The quality of the meat itself was outstanding and cooked very well. Unfortunately, there was a noticeable charred flavor from what seemed like a dirty grill, which took away from an otherwise excellent steak. It was disappointing because the quality of the meat was truly superb. The fries were also surprisingly good and almost tasted closer to sweet potato fries. At that point, we realized our burrata appetizer had been forgotten. Once we flagged down our server, she immediately corrected the mistake and brought it out quickly. Thankfully, it was absolutely delicious and ended up being one of the highlights of the meal. The fresh burrata paired perfectly with the heirloom tomatoes and tasted incredibly fresh and flavorful. Toward the end of dinner, service became difficult again. We were ready for more water, a box, and the check, but our server was nowhere to be found despite the restaurant not being particularly busy since it was still early in the evening. I eventually had to get up and ask the bartender for assistance. Overall, I really enjoyed the ambiance and appreciated the quality of the food. There were definitely some service inconsistencies, but the restaurant has a lot of potential and several dishes that stood out.

I'd heard about Magie for a while from friends in the natural wine scene in Orlando and had to visit while in town. There is convenient (although somewhat limited) parking just to the side of the building, and entering feels like you just entered your cool friend's house. We almost sat inside on a couple of sofas, but opted to brave the humid Miami heat on the back porch/terrace since they were playing the World Cup game on a projection screen. The back is huge and has several sitting areas, including on an elevated porch with fans, as well as couches and bistro tables set up on the pavers down below. There is foliage everywhere and you feel transported (you'd have no clue this business was on a busy road). We got a couple of bottles of wine from their fridges, along with a smattering of shareable dishes from the kitchen (ordered inside). Everything was delightful and we were loving life (again- even in the humid summer heat!). I'd definitely return and enjoy the interior next time. Love a good wine and nosh spot and this is solidly at the top of my list when visiting Miami!

Seems good but you end up paying 35 + 15% auto grat + 3% card fee and it ends up to be 45$ per person. Its literally the same as just buying one of their already expensive 50$ bottles. If your in a group, it makes no sense. Also got a parking ticket so watch out. Auto service charge at a place with no actual table service also feels off..

The only downfall is that it took forever. When you order your food, they give you a buzzer, but the buzzer beeps and does not vibrate. The DJ plus the ambience makes it really hard to ever hear your buzzer. They should really invest in vibrating ones, either way food took a really long time crazy because food is served tapas style. I liked the seating. It's open and just chill overall. You can sit at a table, a lounge chair, or even opt to play dominoes.

It's been a hot minute since I have reviewed the Citadel and I feel like an update is in order as…read morethis is one of my favorite places to co-work as of late. The Citadel is a food hall that really gets it right. They have amazing vendors where locals want to eat at, a great bar, strong wifi, and easy parking. No matter the time of day you visit - you can certainly find something you'd like here. My favorites are Vice City Bean for coffee, Maki-San for sushi and of course USBS for burgers. There are plenty of tables to dine at, and you can definitely post up there to work or catch up with a friend. My favorite hack is to roll up in the early afternoon, because happy hour starts at 4 pm and the wines are $6 and they have bites on the menu that start at $5. My go-to is a glass of white wine and two hand rolls for around $15 - total steal! Service has always been friendly no matter the vendor I visit and I love the community vibe. If you want to shop, they have some cool local stores there too. And for those with a sweet tooth, there is scandy candy in one of the shops. There is parking in the back lot that usually is not full but if it is there is also metered street parking.

I had a lychee martini which was very tasty and the fresh lychee garnish was fantastic. The food taste really varies, depending on where you order from and the dish you get. We tried the vodka sauce rigatoni, which was delicious, but the carbonara was very underwhelming. Our server upstairs in the rooftop was friendly and attentive, but we did have to chase after him a bit to get the check towards the end.
