My favorite dishes were the egg dip and the Facundo cocktail with the passion-fruit mousse on top — truly amazing. And the desserts were on another level.
Loved the whole experience. I’d definitely come back. Highly recommended!
Highly recommend!
With the wine pairing, you are served seven different drinks that pair beautifully with their respective courses and also give a great variety from sparkling white to light and then bold red to a Moscato with dessert and even a sake (this was my personal favorite of the night).
The service is super friendly and attentive and explains each course in detail. I highly recommend this for a fancy night out and we will be back anytime we are in Miami!
I opted for the 3-course amuse menu ($85 + tax), and appreciated that unlike many Miami restaurants, they don’t automatically add a 20% service charge.
The meal began with a delightful soft roll and beautifully shaped butter.
The food was excellent overall, though the Seared Berkshire Porkchop (2nd course) had prominent cinnamon that wasn’t mentioned on the menu. When I mentioned this, the staff was incredibly responsive – he later apologized and surprised me with a complimentary caviar course. This level of attentiveness was outstanding.
As a birthday celebration, they went above and beyond with a gorgeous dessert presentation including “Happy Birthday” carved on the plate with a candle. The desserts were delicious and beautifully plated.
Despite being “only” one Michelin star, this is hands-down the best Michelin experience I’ve had. The combination of exceptional service, excellent food, and reasonable pricing makes it a must-visit.
I’ll definitely return on my next Miami trip!
Service overall was friendly and professional, and we were especially impressed by the staff’s knowledge and attention to detail. They described each course with ease, naming every component and ingredient, which really enhanced the experience and helped us appreciate the complexity behind each dish.
The pacing of the food itself was on the slower side, but it allowed time to fully enjoy the wine pairings and presentation. The atmosphere is sleek and modern — just a little colder than expected, so bringing a light sweater isn’t a bad idea.
There was a noticeable fragrance in the dining room — likely from candles or diffusers — that was pleasant but a bit strong and overpowering the food at times.
Overall, the night felt special. Thank you to the team for helping us celebrate both my birthday and our anniversary!
The service was exceptional—our servers were incredibly attentive, knowledgeable, and able to explain every dish in detail, along with each wine and how thoughtfully it complemented the food. It was an unforgettable experience from start to finish.
