    The ambiance and hummus were great. Service? Not so much. Waited an hour and was never asked to place an entree order. Our server passed us multiple times and only checked on us once. We were fed up and asked someone else for the bill. A glass of prosecco, house wine, a hummus app, and still water (yes, we were charged for filtered water) came out to $54.64. I really was hoping for a great meal here but unfortunately, that wasn't the case.

    This place is truly a gem in the Miami restaurants scene. The setting is an almost botanical- like garden, complete with a natural spring. There are many different dining areas inside the garden, including a hookah lounge at the very end. Everything is very chill. The menu has a good variety of Mediterranean food, the only thing that stood out oddly enough was a pasta Bolognese. Not sure how it’s found it’s place on the menu. We ordered the whole Seabass, which was amazing! As were the mushrooms & lemon potatoes. The service was some of the best we have received in a long time. Very personal and attentive. Live jazz music rounded off the entire experience. We will definitely be back. Thank you to the entire staff for an amazing evening.

    Went for Mother’s Day, ambience was very nice they had live music however, they were trying out a new menu for that day and food was not up to the quality of their regular menu. My plate arrived cold and I sent to back, all they did was warm it up in the microwave. I was very disappointed with the quality and service at that point and didn’t even stay for desert.

    ZOI Restaurant & LoungeResponded on May 20, 2023Dear Susana, sorry to hear about your far from perfect experience. We will definitely address this within our team to see what went wrong and we hope you will give us another chance to impress you!

    The canopied terrace is a breathtaking setting for lunch or dinner. Lush subtropical plants and palms surround two lagoons. An amazing ambience that invites you to stay for hours. We just had a light lunch of the freshest Greek Salad, Mussels, warm pita, and a yummy Rafi dessert. First class from beginning to end. Beautiful restaurant with great food. Definitely an ideal spot for bigger groups too. Zoi Restaurant gets everything right. It’s why I keep coming back.

    This has become one of our new favorite restaurants in Miami. From gorgeous ambiance to absolutely delicious food. We are a family of 5, with three picky teenagers and there was something for everyone. Everything we tried was delicious, from the salads, their dips and finally the entrees. The only thing we didn’t try was their desserts because we were all stuffed. Can’t wait to go back to try it and bring our friends. The place is so beautiful, especially the outdoor area, would be perfect for a romantic night out or even a big party celebration.

    My group had a wonderful time at ZOI Restaurant and Lounge today. There were 10 of us celebrating 2 birthdays. Walking from the large free parking lot adjacent to the restaurant, one is greeted by gorgeous orchids growing on the lush trees. The outdoor garden patio seating area where we dined is magical. It’s an unexpected botanical garden of palms, cycads, orchids and bromeliads surrounding lagoons . In case of inclement weather, the restaurant installed electric windowed awnings . They thought of everything for the diners comfort. The Mediterranean/Greek food is wonderfully delicious especially the variety of Mezzes . The grilled Octopus and Lamb chops were sensational. ZOI has developed the perfect mix of food, intimacy and culinary expertise. Management spoiled us with pampering and great service. We were having so much fun we didn’t want to go home. This place is so special!

    ZOI Restaurant & LoungeResponded on April 6, 2023It was a pleasure hosting you at ZOI! We want to thank you for choosing us as the place for your special occasions and hope to see you with us soon again!

    ZOI Restaurant & LoungeResponded on March 21, 2023Hi Beverly, Yes , while we do offer wine and beer only as of now, we are also working on getting a permanent full license. But we offer a special Oasis Hour where we offer two drinks for the price of one daily between 12 PM and 6 PM and we offer refreshing wine based cocktails. Hope to see you again!

    Although the service was good the waiter was overly “familiar” and took forever to bring the bill in the end. Also made a point of asking for an additional tip, even when service charge already included , which he failed to point out. Not value for money. Food is OK

    Cafe Roval was absolutely my favorite restaurant so this reinvention is has a rough comparison. The atmosphere around the pond is actually a little bit improved with more comfortable furniture. I found the menu, a bit limited, and the dishes not exactly to my taste. When we arrived, the music was too loud, but the staff was very accommodating and turned it down. It’s a overall very good experience.
