   We never miss OLA! when we’re in Miami, and it never disappoints…the fabulous pan de Bono that they bring around to rock shrimp, smoked fish tacos, ceviche, confit duck salad…it’s all absolutely wonderful. It’s our salvation whenever the airline strands us at MIA.

   I was very excited to eat here because it came highly recommended. My husband enjoyed the ceviche- he said it was the best he’s ever had. I found my empanadas and pork diner to be fine, but not great. The table where we were seated felt crowded. The wait staff bumped into me the entire time and no one even noticed or thought to say anything.

    One of our favorite restaurants! We’ve been coming to Ola for about 15 years now.. every time we visit Miami. From the minute you walk in and are greeted by the fabulous Albert.. to the pain de bono ( best rolls ever!). We always start with the mixto ceviche, perfect.. and then the lamb chops. The roast pork is also amazing! Can’t wait to get back next year!

    Outstanding as always. The ceviches were probably the best I’ve had anywhere; the appetizers, especially the duck salad, were delicious; and the grouper entree was amazing. The watermelon mojitos were as good as I’d remembered. All combined with warm and friendly service.

    The Miami spice menu was decent. The shrimp avocado salad was refreshing and the Panela salmon was delicious. They ran out of the one decent dessert that they had on the menu. The others did not sound or look very appetizing. I did enjoy the quiet and the brightness of the establishment. They are located across from the One Hotel.

    Outstanding food but if you go I highly recommend sitting outside as the inside is very bland. Since there were two large parties the service was not what I expected. Just as an FYI, the prices on the website are not what was on the menu provided. In some cases, items were $20 higher than what was listed. Since we were on vacation we didn’t push the issue. Overall, great food and ambiance when dinning outside. Enjoy!

    This is one of my all time favorites when visiting Miami. The pan de bono (Colombian sweet bread that they serve before your meal) is amazing and their ceviche is divine. I’ve tried many of their main dishes and while the special is usually the best, their salmon and filet dishes are also outstanding.

    OLA is a fabulous find here in Miami Beach that our whole family absolutely loved! Everyone from the Hostess and Maitre’D to the various wait staff that served us were great. This is what I was imagining for food when we came to Miami Beach. Latin Inspired, at least 5 types of Civeche on the menu, great apps, salads and entres. In addition, they were very kid friendly. We came early b/c of our kids, but we were just as welcome and treated just as well as others w/o kids under 5. Can’t say that for everywhere here in SOBE…. Be sure to enjoy their dinner rolls too. Very unique and gluten free.

    We have been going to Ola since 2004 when it was in the Sanctuary Hotel. It was great. The last few times it has not been good. Last night We ordered short rib empanadas, cold! We ordered smoked fish tacos, no Smokey flavor and lobster empanadas that barely had lobster. The $18 tequila was barely a full shot of tequila as I watched the bartender pour it I was simply irritated. It was so irritating we never bothered to order entrees. We paid our ridiculous check and left. What makes it worse is the man at the podium who we have seen at Ola since 2003 lacks any warmth and is unwelcoming. Never need to go back.

    Lots of tables outdoors on Indian Creek make this a lovely place to dine. The food was outstanding if pricy. The cuisine is Latin. There were lots of choices for ceviche; we shared a Thai ceviche which was delicious and more like a carpaccio. We also shared the Waygu beef meatballs, which we enjoyed but it seemed like not too many for $26. We also shared the whole snapper, which was perfectly cooked with lovely tiny pepper accents; a generous portion, we took some home. The hot-out-of-the-oven rolls, made with queso blanco, were out of this world. Our server was especially well-informed about the dishes and ingredients.
