Asked for an outdoor seating received an indoor awkward facing table. Good food though the salad had salted pork which was again in its self awkward. Overall good environment
It was my 60th birthday I made a reservation and I had to wait 1 1/2 hours to be seated. It was a horrible experience I live at Apogee right next door I will never go back to this restaurant and will make sure I encourage other not to go to this over rated restaurant!
The food was spectacular!
For the price we paid the Tomahawk steak was disappointing super chewy and bland. However, service was great.
Secured us our favorite table in the window - usual server - excellent experience - thank you !
I presented my $50 coupon from Open Table and they would not accept. I do not think that we will ever go back again.
Horrible experience! Outside table was by the bar and kept getting interrupted by the apparent Evening staff employees that worked the previous night exchanging stories w/the current staff behind the bar while every others word was F@@K! Not worth the money!
We made a reservation. Upon arrival we were told outdoor seating was first come first serve and the wait would be 30-40 min. After noticing other people being sat before us who had just gotten there, we were told it would only be another 10 min or so. Heard the host say to either a manager or the owner, “you are going to get me in trouble” as he sat what appeared to be friends of his as soon as they walked up. After a little over an hour, we were sat. Service was very poor. Only saw our server upon taking the order and bringing the bill. Had to flag someone down to get refills on drinks, etc.
Food was amazing!!!! Perfect! No complaints!
Scenery of boats on the water while eating was fabulous!
Great food and service!

Overall it's a very nice restaurant. It's typical high-end steak house fare. BUT there are a few issues that set it far behind a Flemings, Mortons, Ruth Chris or even an Eddie V's.... #1 the wait staff, while they're certainly friendly enough, our waiter seemed genuinely uninterested. Perhaps he was having a bad day. #2 it's WAY WAY over priced... honestly I expected that... the venue, the location, the view... you're going to pay extra. That being said having eating a filet outside at Ruth Chris in Honolulu I can honestly say the view isn't worth the extra cost. #3 The food overall was good. Not Ruth Chris or Mortons good but good. The baked potato for $15 was only 1/2 the potato... the Filet with fried lobster... the only surf and turf option for an extra $20... was really sad, the chef should be embarrassed. The lobster consisted of 2 chicken nugget sized chunks of lobster and a bunch of shell.
Overall... its ok... the steak is good.. just don't expect top notch service or an overwhelming amount of options.. expect limited sides, smallish non-steak portions, and $100 per plate. Afterwards it's like the Grand Canyon, there's no need to make a second trip.
Jim, We are so sorry to hear your experience lacking. Apologies to you and your guest . I will personally show this to our Chef so we may look at your concerns. We'll work to do better. Thank you very much for taking the time to give us your feedback. We do look forward to serving you again soon.

We sat inside and were fortunate to have a round table facing the water. We ordered the tomahawks and they were fantastic. We also had wonderful service from Carlo, our server. A perfect evening!

Smith & Wollensky Steakhouse in Miami is supposed to be one of the best steakhouses in the area, but the meal is definitely not exceptional. The location is beautiful, but food is average at best. For the price point, I expected better tasting food. Overall, disappointed with the food quality and service. The waitstaff are in a hurry, not personable and messed up the order. Regretfully, this was a very poor yet expensive diving experience. If you value delicious food, save your money and eat elsewhere.
Debra, We are so sorry to hear your experience lacking. Apologies to you and your guest . Thank you very much for taking the time to give us your feedback. Regarding Overall, disappointed with the food quality and service.We look to do better on next occasion. And We will speak to our chef. We do look forward to serving you again soon.

They should do something about re-positioning the umbrellas outside so you’re guests aren’t scorched by the sun.
Ashley, It was a pleasure to have been able to make such a memorable experience for you, that you felt us worthy of a 5 star rating! As to the umbrellas. If they are not fastened down, the wind can cause them to come undone. Looking forward to your next visit with us.

Our experience was terrible ! While on the way to our table , my fiancé tripped on the hardwood floor located in the far south of the restaurant. Upon closer examination , it was noted one of the floor panels had buckled. We notified management right away and were offered ice . My fiancé bumped her arm on the wall as a result of trip , and was unable to use her right arm to eat. I literally had to cut her steak for her . Smith and Wollensky use to be our favorite while in Miami , but due to their lack of compassion for an accident, that was caused by their negligence , needless to say we will not return . This situation is pathetic!
Let me begin by extending my sincere apologies for your experience at Smith & Wollensky. We certainly hope your wife is ok. I see that ice was offered by management team and hope she feels better. Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback. We do look forward to serving you again soon. Kind Regards, Charles Murphey Manager Smith & Wollensky, Miami 1 Washington Ave. | Miami Beach, FL 33139 Reservations: (305) 673-2800

Food was ok, service ok untill they rush us out of our table. We were finishing our meal, waiter asked if we wanted coffe i said, maybe in a minute and told him, maybe with dessert, few minutes later asked if we wanted coffe again, we ordered a drink and they brought the check rite away... no dessert no coffe...
Let me begin by extending my sincere apologies for your experience at Smith & Wollensky. Service is key and it seemed as if you were rushed. Not our standard. We'll work one this.

More overpriced than ever, with a boring one-sided menu. No PPX or birthday recognition received, though everything was on file. Then became nasty since our tip was not high enough. I should have reconsidered and reduced it to $0. If you want me to pay your staff, make it worth it.
BabyPrinz. We are so sorry to hear your experience lacking. Apologies to you and your guest .We sincerely strive for each guest to have a wonderful experience. Clearly on several levels, we didn't. Questioning tip is simply not tolerated here. Thank you for giving us your feedback. We do look forward to serving you again soon.

Great location, food was exquisite and the service on point. We had a reservation, we were on time and we were offered an outside table. When we went outside to sit, we were informed it would be at least a 20 minute wait. I then said, no we will be seated now! So we were taken back inside.
Very strange!
The service was great!! The food as well.
Fantastic to see you had such a wonderful time, that you rated us 5 Stars! Thank you so much for saying the service and food are great! Look forward to your next visit.

Excellent from the time we checked in to reserve our table until we finished our meal. Wait staff couldn't have been more attentive to our needs. The food was phenomenal. Filet Mignon (10oz.) was the best I have ever eaten. The evening view of the waterway was stunning. Can't wait to return on my next visit to South Beach.
Kathleen, Fantastic to see you had such a wonderful time, that you rated us 5 Stars! Thank you so much! Look forward to your next visit. Kind Regards, Charles Murphey Manager Smith & Wollensky, Miami 1 Washington Ave. | Miami Beach, FL 33139 Reservations: (305) 673-2800

We’ve been coming to Smith for years, this time around everything was horrible, both of our servers were awful, I had to ask for plates for the bread, I had to ask for more cold water, I had to ask for a lemon twist in my French martini, I had to ask for serving spoons so we can eat our appetizers. We ordered bone in ribeye, it was so rubbery that I literally told them to make us another one, 30 min later we got another one that was beyond rare, we sent it back 3!!!!! 3 times! By the time they got it right all our sides were cold!
Let me begin by extending my sincere apologies for your experience at Smith & Wollensky. The Ribeye along with French Martini issues? We'll work one this. Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback. We do look forward to serving you again soon.

Do not order seafood here. They should stick with what they (kind of) know... steak, everything else was garbage. Honestly, the steak was nothing special either. The location was the main factor in choosing this restaurant and the view was very disappointing. There was one other table in the restaurant at 9:00, should've been our sign. They tried to close our tab and ask us to leave before we had even received drink we had ordered and asked for 3 times already. What a mess.
Dear Morgan, Let me begin by extending my sincere apologies for your experience at Smith & Wollensky. You listed multiple reasons of concern. We'll work one this. Thank you very much for taking the time to give us your feedback. Please feel free to contact me here at the restaurant. We do look forward to serving you again soon.

We were seat quickly. I was surprised it had a second floor. Our table was socially distanced. We had three waiters. Our food was standard. Overall everything is old and needs an extreme makeover. The best part was the view and this was not provided by the owners of the restaurant.
Dear Bobby , We are so sorry to hear your experience lacking regarding Food and view. We try our best to give the best table available to all but sell out often due to Covid seating limits. I'll discuss concerns with our chef. Thanks for feedback. We do look forward to serving you again soon.
