    Had a very poor experience here. The service was slow and rude, the food was not good at all. When I told the waitress she didn’t even respond. The muffin for the Benedict was mushy and old. The Ruben sandwich was dry and all bread. They ran out of lox! My husband had a $30 Benedict that was literally egg and muffin that’s it! Will not go back.

    I had a reservation for 7 pm for 2. Walked in, no one at front reception, no problem, the restaurant was empty except for 2 tables, walked further into the restaurant and saw 2 people working in back. They did not acknowledge our presence, waiting for 3 minutes for someone, anyone, to invite us to sit. Never happened. And considering the last time I was there a few weeks ago, the service was abominable, but I confess, the food was good. We were told then that the chef was busy preparing meals for Uber Eats requests. I said, sure, but what about the folks that came into your restaurant, when should we have to wait 45 mins. between appetizer and entre?? My feeling this most recent time is the employees didn't want to sit us because they were busy with Uber eats folks. Fine, but once again, another great restaurant is going by the way side.

    While my companions felt the food service was somewhat slow, I enjoy a leisurely dinner with time to catch up with old friends as was the case on a recent evening. The Autumn prix-fixe dinner was delicious and a great value.

    Diego and Icebox GM Shasha made our dining experience the best it could have been. We love Icebox, and it's our go-to place for excellent food and service while having fun! We were there recently for brunch with our six-year-old, and we could not have had a better time eating great food while the staff "accommodated" our energetic little boy. Always Fun, great for options and selection, and always a friendly (attitude-less) team at Icebox!

    We decided to dine here to try the Taste of Summer menu which both my husband and I enjoyed. There is something for everyone. The dishes are nicely plated and well portioned. Good wine list selection. Interior space is very pleasant, high ceiling and nice Sunset Harbour neighborhood. We shall return.

The attention was also good, Diego (our waiter) was super nice and attentive, he took care of our requests. Will surely come back nex time we’re in Miami for a great brunch

    This restaurant was amazing. Everything we had was absolutely delicious. We had the octopus and white bean plate, we had the tuna tartare times two, we had the steak, we had the grouper, asparagus, puréed, celery, root, etc. everything was delicious. They have gluten-free items marked on the menu. The staff was friendly and engaging. The staff was also very quick. They have outdoor seating that is fully covered for weather. I love this place.

    Took friends visiting and happy we went to Icebox. Everybody choose their dish but took it upon myself to order the ricotta pancake for the table to share. Special thanks to Manuel for his personal and friendly service. Minor point might be to add fresh orange (and grapefruit) juice to the menu. Will keep returning. Perfect Sunday brunch.

    We were visiting the area and stopped by to have a quick lunch a few days ago and it was very good. Then we learned that they also served dinner and tried it tonight. We sat at the bar and had a wonderful meal and engaged in interesting conversation with the bartender.

    Good food, nice environment, seems like there isn't enough weight stuff because it took forever to have our order taken. They ran out of gluten-free desserts on a Saturday morning, which actually is good because then I didn't eat them, but seemed a little unusual that they would be out of them Just as the weekend was starting.

    The waitress never put in one of our orders and the kitchen put cheese in a omelette when we didn’t ask for it. Atmosphere was really nice though and the food was decent. This place is supposed to have great dessert but we were too full to have any, maybe it would have raised the overall experience. I don’t regret coming here but it was really just okay.
