Crispy pork,grill skewer
Supawat J.

We were in the area for some business then we saw this place. We gave a try. ...it was good. For around $14 , you can get salmon,crispy pork belly, tasty fried shrimp,octopus salad .MOJO pork and some other delicious fusions food. The service was very good,our waitress always pick up the plates and refilled the drink. I will definitely come back.

I ordered a surprise bag from Uptown Buffet through Too Good To Go and was genuinely impressed! For just $7.99, I got a full variety -- sushi, lo mein, two soups, and more. It was fresh, tasty, and honestly way more than I expected for the price. Such a great deal and a fun way to try a little bit of everything. Would definitely grab another bag and might even dine in next time!

I can't understand the under appreciated comments here. The servers are quick in removing the plates, there is a variety of food, from sushi, Chinese style to deserts. I paid 14.50 on a Sunday evening. Be generous with the tip here, this might be the last hidden gem in Miami in terms of price and quality. 谢谢 xièxie!

The food is consistently outstanding--beautifully presented, flavorful, and crafted with real passion. I want to give special recognition to Hotel Manager José, whose leadership clearly elevates the entire guest experience. His professionalism and warm presence make every visit feel personal and memorable. The service team is nothing short of world-class. German, Boston, Maria, Carolina, JP, Mazzie, and Cynthia deliver hospitality at its highest level. Each of them goes above and beyond to make guests feel valued, remembered, and taken care of. Their attention to detail, friendliness, and genuine care are what set Blue Matisse apart from every other restaurant in the area. Whether it's breakfast, lunch, or dinner, Blue Matisse is consistently exceptional. Five stars all the way--and highly recommended to anyone visiting Doral or looking for a phenomenal dining experience.

Dawan was such a funny and personable server. Love her. I can tell it's been a long day for her but she still had the energy to keep going. Respect!! They have an AYCE menu so they do get pretty packed during that time so beware. We had a great experience. Despite sitting outside, we were still being checked on and water refilled. We ordered the Zen mojito and Miami sunshine. I really enjoyed the latter. For a family of 3, we ordered Shrimp head off 1/2lb + Combo #3 -- $69.99 1 lb green mussel, 1 lb clam, 1/2 lb shrimp, 1/2 snow crab leg -- with sausage, potatoes, and corn 3 sides of choice w/ garlic butter sauce & house(?) - side of white rice. Definitely order some rice because the sauce is too good to waste! Buttery, garlicky, flavor goodness. I like how they give you a hair tie haha. I would totally go back again!

There was a good selection of sushi, cooked dishes, hibachi, salad, shrimp, desserts, and ice cream. Parking was a bit challenging at that time of day, and the restaurant was quite crowded. However, we were seated immediately. Our drink order was taken promptly, and we headed straight to the buffet. Lunch ends at 3:30 PM, so timing is something to keep in mind. The food was replenished frequently, which helped maintain freshness despite the busy crowd. This is our go-to spot for the price point.

It's really quite enjoyable with some great variety for everyone. It's a little small, but good use of space, a bit older, but kept up.

Hot food table has cooked items like sesame chicken, steamed/cooked vegetables & seafood dishes etc. 4. Back table of soups and made to order rice/noodle dishes. All good here! The hardest thing is restraining one's self with things you love!! I advise walking through first, then taking just a small bit to try what you like from one area at a time. That way you have room for dessert which I always overdo Haha!! Check it out for yourself when in the area. It's fun! Thanks for following me, Happy yelping in 2026!

We asked to sit downstairs where the DJ starts around 11PM. The energy was great with incredibly comfortable and spacious seating. There was a 2 hour limit at the table, but we moved to the bar after our meal. Loved the caviar potato as an appetizer, and the beef tenderloin literally melted in my mouth. The downstairs scene gets pretty loud just an FYI. Service was top notch. Seems pretty trendy and mainstream, but definitely worth it.

Mila is undeniably gorgeous and absolutely the place to be seen for dinner -- but as a brunch…read moredestination, it left me longing for the Setai. Let's start with the good, because credit where it's due: the food is genuinely excellent, particularly the fish and seafood, which were the clear stars of the spread. And our server, while I'll get to a quibble shortly, was fun, warm, and thoroughly professional. Now the rest. Brunch should feel like a leisurely indulgence, not a contact sport. The meat station had a queue of 20+ people at peak -- I came for great food, not a deli ticket. The space is crowded and genuinely hard to navigate. Champagne required actively hunting down a server, whereas the Setai simply leaves a bottle at your table and lets you breathe. Coffee is $7 a cup -- at a brunch of this price point, charging for coffee feels a little cheeky. Then there was the pacing. Well before our two hours were up, our (otherwise lovely) server began the gentle wrap-up and produced the bill -- which is a curious energy for a "linger and enjoy" brunch. And we were charged an extra 2% as a "large party" of seven... at a buffet. Where we served ourselves. I'm still working out the math on that one. If you want a beautiful setting, live music, better drinks, attentive service, and zero queues, the Setai brunch wins -- every single time. Mila, save it for the nightlife.

Don't get me wrong, they are still excellent, but this is more of a 4.4 than a true 5 star. For me Zuma had a pleasant ambiance, lots of beautiful people, great outdoor seating to watch the yachts go by. So if that's what you are looking for, this is a good place to stop in. Also I give them points for not rushing you even though in their policy there is a seating time limit. We ended up just ordering the premium omakase, and that was quite a bit of food. I am glad I didn't order extras like I usually like to do at an Omakase. While the food in general is good and enjoyable, there was nothing very memorable, other than their Lava cake. That was to die for! And I skips dessert 99% of the time. Service was good but not stellar, could be because they had wait staff in training (during table service, our server didn't really know how to properly shave a truffle and another staff had to take over. Our courses are mumbled, doesn't sound like our server was confident about what the food is)

We're told to go upstairs for food only to find the restaurant closed. Went down to Zuma, even as guests at the hotel we couldn't get in because of our clothes. Second time at the Kimpton, made reservations for 6 pm, everything is great and normal. The menu has a lot! Idk if I love that idea or hate it. The skirt steak is not like any other one 've had before - in a good way! They made my son plain cumber rolls, which was accommodating. We sat outside by the water just in time for all the yacht rentals to roll in.
