    I ordered the truffle paste, it was lukewarm, my friend's dish was hot. Food is ok! I loved the tiramisu dessert. The environment is really cool. But if you want to have dinner and enjoy ambient music, this is not the place, the music is really loud. It's lively… I ordered a non-alcoholic drink, a mojito, which was wonderful. The waiter's service was excellent. I didn't like it very much when I arrived because I couldn't sit down while my friend didn't arrive even though I was at my reservation time and the restaurant was empty at early hours. But overall I liked it.

    Never again, food was horrible and service was even worse. Why can’t Miami have good food ? The server was new but still had no clue what she was doing. They brought the wrong drinks, food was cold and the bill was criminal. I would only go back for a drink at the bar, maybe, I just can’t get over what they charge for such bad food. I feel so ripped off and will be calling my bank to lodge a complaint. One of the bad things about living in Miami is the lack of good food. It just doesn’t exist here on any scale and the people here have no clue or taste about food so these places do the bare minimum

    What a great restaurant. The spicy rigatoni is really good and surprisingly light tasting. I would say Carbone’s and Sofia’s has the best in town. The vibe is also really well put together.

    This was the last thing from the fine dining and Toronto expectation. It is — even at 7.30– like a singles nightspot with food. Very load music makes conversation virtually impossible. Requests to lower the sound did not work. The waiter was untrained and had no idea about fine dining service. He wanted to be helpful but had no idea. If you want a DJ evening and lots of young people it is great but not for a nice upscale dinner.

    Food was great, but very small portions and way overpriced. Then our waitress told us that the 20% service charge goes to the house and if I want her to get any I have to add additional tip??? Our lunch bill was over $450 for three of us. Don’t think I’ll go back anytime soon even though the food was good but not that good. And it’s like a cafe not like 5 star dining with white glove service.

    This place was a disappointment. Not all that glitters is gold. The decor was the best part, however, other than that not worth visiting twice. Last night my husband and I had reservations for an early Valentine's Day dinner. We were greeted with rudeness (typical Miami. The hostess said our table would be outside when my husband specially asked to be sat in the main dining room on his Open Table reservation. We said absolutely not we were all dressed up and it was hot outside (we're locals). They somehow found us a table inside. We walked to the bar to have a drink while we waited for them to clean the table. While we stood at the bar for 10 minutes not one bartender came to greet us. I heard one bartender tell another Im in the weeds I cannot help you. The waiters/managers were running all over the restaurant frantic, the sommelier fanning himself, it was chaotic. The table was ready and so just sat, hopefully drinks would be faster at our table. Nope. We sat at our table for about 10 minutes and no one would come over to greet us. I had to get the attention of a hostess/manager who told me "sorry we are slammed". Finally a waiter came over and told us they are busy (we can see that) but he would take our drink order. I threw in some apps too since I was hungry. The apps came before the drinks which defeated the purpose. I got oysters and ordered some Prosecco to go with.
