"The food was simply amazing and the drinks were really creative and tasty! Eva, our waitress was fantastic! The chef answered some questions we had and explained some of his ideas on the menu. Great find for a couple of out of towers. Would definitely go back. The decor was really interesting too, with the digital walls changing scenes every few minutes."

"Better than expected sushi and great cocktails. Usually I skip the cocktail menu, but this is one to savor.

We arrived early for the food-around 8:30pm on a Saturday and the place was all ours. By 10 the bar crowd gears up and it gets a bit tougher to enjoy the food because of the mayhem. But overall great find, not too pricey and well worth a visit for the visuals and crowd."

"The food here is awesome. Although I think most would consider it more an upscale lounge, don't be fooled -- it's a great place to go just for the food The menus is designed as more of a tapas style which sometimes is not my favorite, but here it worked for me as there were so many things I wanted to try--all of them great. I could have ordered every item The cocktails are just as good and inventive."

"Helmed by the area's best new chef, Todd Erickson, Haven is a feast for the senses! From the ever-changing, computer controlled wall murals to the perfect S. Beach vibe to the AMAZING food, Haven is for foodies and lounge lovers alike. The foodies will adore Todd's creative, dynamic, DELICIOUS food, and enjoy the vibe, while the lounge lovers will love the vibe and may be surprised by how much they love the food! Try the chef's table/bar if you can and enjoy watching the action in the kitchen!"

"Where to begin with Haven...
The doorman obviously keeps a tight leash on the crowd but always a consummate professional and ssssuper cute.
The bartenders are smokin' and so are the drinks...liquid nitrogen crafted cocktail...Thank you Nathan!
The waitresses float and flirt around the floor as if on stage at The Moulin Rouge...Guichie Guichie Ya Ya Eva!
The crowd was well heeled, well dressed and well...HOT! An amazing mix of people to keep you coming back.
The Chef, Todd Erickson, voted best looking in Miami I hear, delivered our food to the table and was very engaging.
Eat everything on the menu...Lobster, Duck, Scallops and House Made Ice Cream.
The venue is a surround sound, visual feast that keeps you engaged and enthralled all"

"The best place to sit, eat and enjoy the evening is at the bar. Watching the bartender (Izzic) make all of his drinks both his own and traditional provided a wonderful backdrop of entertain straight out of cocktails. The food was just as great with tasteful creations that complemented the drinks and made for discussion points for our conversation during the evening. "how did they make it" "or what their secret ingredient" We had a great time. Rudy"
