"Went with a group of girlfriends while vacationing in Miami. We all loved the meal - we each ordered a fish dish and key lime pie for dessert. My miso sea bass was perfect and the pie was perfectly creamy and not too tarte. I would definitely go back. Our service was also wonderful. We ate on the patio overlooking ocean ave. it was lively and definitely a great place to have a long meal with great conversation."

"Stayed next door at another hotel, so the walk was short. We dined outdoors as the people walked by, but no one bothered us. The Bang-bang shrimp was excellent. The seafood risotto was good, but not great."

"Went here based on positive reviews and was not disappointed. We sat down by the sidewalk (lots of people walking by) but you can also sit higher up on the patio or inside. Lots of good choices on the menu and everything we ordered was delicious and good sized portions. A little pricy (but what isn't in South Beach) but I don't mind paying when the food is good, and it was. We will definitely be going back."

"The restaurant was very good. Great food,ambience, etc. The only negatives were the lack of sufficient light at the table, and the fact that I called ahead to tell them this was a birthday, and they eithe rforgot or the message was never delivered. However, I would come back again."

"Gorgeous location, excellent mahi-mahi and salmon, great key lime pie, mellow music at a reasonable noise level. Great dining experience, only problem was we felt a little rushed through the meal, nothing obvious, just a sense that they maybe wanted to turn over the table."

"We went for my husband's birthday because he wanted seafood. The calamari appetizer was fantastic. Both our meals were very good, but nothing that really blew us away. After dinner, he was too full to order dessert. I was dissapointed that we weren't going to get to wish him a happy birthday, but our server brought out the cheesecake dessert with a candle anyway -- at no charge. I was so thrilled that she did that. The dessert was excellent, as well."
