    Second time going there during our short holidays in Miami Beach. The food is fantastic, the service is excellent (Thank you Lee!). The ambiance is beautiful but the prices are on the high side, which is normal at this prime location!

    This hidden gem is a Michelin-star-level find on a quiet romantic walkable street just metres away from the tourist traps in the next block - the service was prompt, engaging and very helpful; the food delicious, varied and well-priced in a quiet yet busy but not frenzied environment! Armondo is the knowledgeable, engaging, humourous and extremely helpful Manager who's input topped it all off! This is one of our best Miami Beach restaurants ever – including those where dinner cost 4-5 times more in far less pleasing environments – we recommend it to everyone who enjoys great food, service and ambience!

    Great dinner last night. Beautiful outdoor setting. We started with the stuffed artichoke, which was unique and very tasty. We also ordered the seafood paella for two. It was a good size serving with lots of seafood. The restaurant wasn’t busy at all, but our server said that was unusual.
