Place charges $3/person for regular water, $5 to substitute crudite for bread. Staff was extremely rude and inattentive, and then automatically added 20% to the bill without even asking. Food was great, experience not so much.

Ambiance is great. Loved the outdoor seating. The service was very good. The menu is more of a small plate/tapas type menu. I think the food was prepared well but the table was divided about likes and dislikes of the various dishes. People either really liked or disliked the same dish. Although everyone felt like the Tomahawk Steak was just ok.

The waiter recommended the dumpling were outstanding. Same with main course Brazino fish so fresh and light. The kale salad truffle pita bread was wonderful. Overall great food presentation! The brussel sprouts were nothing to write home about. Maybe because that ingredient was in the kale salad and was overload. Our server recommended that not sure about that. Shrimp rice was delicious. Food excellent and ambiance classy.

Both were creatively executed. Our server and all of the staff with whom we interacted were friendly and accommodating. I would highly recommend!

Did the Biblos 4 course experiance! It's not a set menu but rather whatever the chef chooses so your experiance is the freshest! Surprisingly alot of food! So glad we did the experiance as we tried some dishes that we probably wouldn't have ordered & they were amazing! Lamb ribs & Fried chicken were amazing, anything truffles was delicious, the beet starter was surprising good! It is pricey at 90USD pp. Remember 20% gratituty automatically added to the bill! Overall would 100% do it all over again! Thanks for a memorable time!

The food was good, as was our server. However, we checked in for our 8:30pm meal and were told our table would be ready "In a few minutes". At 9pm we were still waiting for our table, watching all of the other diners enjoy their meal. This set the tone for an evening of good food, but not a good experience. I understand that things get crowded sometimes and that many restaurants are short-staffed. But some communication, some offer to give us drinks as we waited would have gone a long way. Once I politely let my displeasure be known and we were finally seated (well after 9pm), the manager came over to apologize and told us he would send us dessert "On the house"--which turned out to be two smallish desserts for the four of us. Too little, too late.

If you're in the Miami area, you have to go to this restaurant. My wife an I were on our honeymoon and this place was recommended by another couple and it didn't disappoint. Only real hiccup was that our main meal was served with our appetizers, but it was more of a blessing than a curse. Every single dish was A+, even the pita was the best I've ever had. We might plan another trip to Miami just to eat here again.

Delicious food . Loved it and surprised by how much we all enjoyed the salads. We ordered all 3, and Branzino, plus more. Music is way too loud. Never understand music so loud you can barely hear the server. I know I am old but I really think most diners would appreciate turning the volume down a bit.
