   The food was the best I’ve ever had in Miami. The menu is distinctive, craft cocktails are amazing, and the cost/value of this impeccably delicious food can’t be over emphasized. Bravo to the chef. At long last, Miami has a restaurant that rivals the best in Europe and Northern California.

   Even the most simple (sounding) selections -cheesy puffs, chicken were memorable. Cocktails were good, wine selection nice with a wide range of price levels though bottles were about 3x retail. Service was friendly and attentive. I loved the classic rock but it was a little loud making conversation challenging. Overall, this was a delicious, fun experience. We were happy with our 3 starters, 2entrees and 2 desserts for two people. Cappuccinos were lovely and served with dessert as requested.

   Our food runner and the mango dessert was the things that made our night. Me and my husband are both chefs in great nominated restaurants and we got very disappointed with the food there. I don’t know if was the time (because we had the last reservation) but everything were zero surprising for good… We got the cheese bread that when mixed with the pickled cucumber made a huge difference for good. Tuna tartare, old tuna and very fishy (not good refrigerated and old piece of tuna) we couldn’t eat at all. The sauce tasted like plastic. Shrimp Gnocchi very poor but didn’t taste bad (or great/surprising) Chicken was the best plate in all of this plates we received, but it was literally 1 min extra in the heat so kinda dry. Purée a little sticky but I liked the flavor. So let’s talk about the wagyu… 105 dolars for literally 3oz OR LESS of smoked meat. Why smoke a piece of wagyu? And the vegetables and the jus… Like, it destroyed the meal…. (Ps not talking about the old looking about that - different colors of tones in the beef) Dessert was WOW and congrats to the chef that created. Very summery and delicious. I definitely wouldn’t like to come back, but maybe I will do in a few time to check if you guys made it better. Our food runner was great, I think he’s new because he looked very excited to serve us and definitely it was a plus. Ps our host was a little exaggerated when he called us to ask for us to be on time. A little kindness with the clients that spend a lot of money getting almost the whole menu would definitely make it better… I really hope you guys get better and show us (the clients) why you guys deserve the Michelin star… I was disappointed, but the dessert saved the end of the meal. Wish you good luck for the future.

    Chef Jeremy Ford never disappoints. Our fifth visit was off the charts. Service is impeccable and knowledgeable. His food is always inventive and full of flavor. It’s like eating a great painting with every color and line meticulously executed.

    The food and service lived up to the hype! Amazing! The ambiance was nice, but nothing memorable. The only real downside was the lack of valet parking. After 20 minutes of searching, we finally asked another restaurant’s valet to park us. Help your customers to have the best experience possible and offer valet parking please.

    We took our 16 year old daughter for her birthday. The staff was incredible to make it celebratory. We took the tasting menu for all 3. Our daughter has severe allergies and we thought it will not be possible with all her dietary restrictions. Despite being a busy night, the chef did the whole menu with adjustments to the dishes for her. That was incredibly nice and special. The food was delicious, specially the crudo. We had a great evening. Great way to turn 16!

    Modern and minimal, candles and low lighting Edison bulbs, moderate volume old rock to modern pop music, all set the scene for Chef Jeremy Ford’s tasting menu from his badass chef crew. Land and Sea selections dominate the fused French and Asian influences of the plates, artistically arranged in beautiful presentations. Eight courses and two desserts, each small enough to easily finish in less than six bites. This chef team is able to provide strictly vegetarian substitutions as well. This type of dinner at Stubborn Seed, on a full capacity evening, will be finalized and paying the tab at the least timeframe of three hours. These types of preparations and presentations take time and professional skill to complete and be appropriate to serve. An absolute must attend is the category of Stubborn Seed. Congratulations all around to Stubborn Seed employees for achieving one star Michelin dining designation.

    This is a difficult review to write. While the food and service is exceptional. The experience was very disappointing. Ordering a chefs tasting menu of the caliber of Chef Ford comes with high expectations and anticipation. And you expect to get what you pay for— we did not. The cadence of the second half of the menu was slow and uneven with no explanation. Our wine ran out when I asked the waiter what was going on he said he would speak to the manager. Wine was then suggested, offered and poured clearly to be complimentary: it was not! Two glasses of fine red wine offered by the manager and appeared on the bill for $68.00. This was no error; you can read other reviews and hear the same story of the Michelin starred restaurant. Let me close by suggesting for wonderful and impressive dining experience try Joe Andreas Baazar, Thomas Keller Surf Club or Jean-Georges Vongerichten Matador Room. All will deliver memorable experiences. Chef Ford, we will not return to your restaurant.

    We had the a la carte option, and were underwhelmed with the originality and taste of a number of the dishes. The truffled bravas were decent but not especially tasty, the foie gras was poor (watery and acidic- and it should be neither). The truffled chicken was tasty, while the swordfish we had was well cooked but not especially flavorful (corn jus excepted). In the peanut candy bar dessert the amazing banana ice cream showed up the rest of the dessert as sub par.

    The Best Meal I’ve Had in My Life So Far! If you visit Miami, go to Stubborn Seed! Not only does this place have a great name, the food and service are fantastic. The Foie Gras was amazing paired with a pineapple-plantation-scotch bonnet sauce, crushed macadamia nuts, and shaved white chocolate. The best part for me is that every cook, prep cook, chef, bartender, server, farmer, rancher, fish monger, and host has their name on the menu. It takes a tribe of dedicated hands to run a good restaurant, and this place understands that on a deep level.

    Perfect place for a nite out with my wife. We got an early dinner reservation (6:15pm) to ensure sufficient time to eat, drink and talk. Food was amazing, and so was the service. We didn’t get any cocktails but we got an excellent bottle of wine and a five dishes as dinner. Would recommend it and will get back soon Thanks Stubborn Seed for such an amazing evening and experience… FA

    We chose this restaurant and the Chef’s tasting for our 25th anniversary dinner. This was the first time we had eaten at a Michelin Star restaurant. The food was incredible! We have eaten food this good in our entire lives, and I’m a foodie. There were things in the courses I never would’ve ordered in a million years, but to much my surprise things like raw oysters and raw tuna were absolutely mouth watering. The service was good, but we had so many it was dizzying. The drinks from the bar were top notch and prepared very well. This night will be a night to remember for my husband and I.

    My husband and I went here to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We enjoyed every moment. We chose the tasting menu option and did not regret it. The eight dishes and dessert were delectable, and paired with an amazing selection of champagnes and wines. The staff was very professional and friendly. I would highly recommend Stubborn Seed to anyone who wants to treat themselves to a very special meal.
