We visited Le Jardinier restaurant today at 2:40 pm for reserved lunch for 2. We chose a terrace table and had a prefixed menu and some extra . The atmosphere was nice and friendly, the staff was super welcoming and helpful, the all food was simply superb. We’ve been to this place before and I have to say, that today we had much more pleasant experience. The wine , all food, dessert were delicious. We’re from NYC and visited a lot of different restaurants. Today’s lunch was one of the very best! Andres, the waiter, and all others deserved recognition, thank you! We’re planning to return to you at the end of December, at our next trip to Miami. Happy Thanksgiving! Galina

I’m so happy I had my birthday dinner here. The staff were friendly and welcoming from the start to finish. Especially Jil and our server Cameron was so knowledgeable about the various dishes and drinks we tried. My mom started with the ume blossom for her cocktail and said it was smooth. I had the margarita verde which is sweet but spicy and delicious. To start we ordered the salmon crispy rice and that was a perfect selection. That had us wanting more. We then ordered the grilled spanish octopus which was grilled to perfection. Then Mediterranean Black Cod was the star of the table. It was so buttery and delicious. It kept slipping from my fork. We also ordered the spicy chipotle lamb chops with shiso yogurt and it was a great compliment to the black cod. For a side we had the broccolini with miso tahini and it was great. Last but not least I had the citrus olive oil cake with Greek yogurt and that was the best dessert to compliment our dinner. Overall I enjoyed my dinner and had a wonderful birthday. I definitely recommend and come back!

Great spot but it’s not really a very good place to take a date. Very loud music made it impossible to talk for large portions of dinner. Excellent place for cocktails and dancing or to go with friends

We would have scored Zoi much lower had it not been for our server and restaurant concierge, Sonny. He made us feel seen, welcome and important which while mostly ego-based, adds to an overall restaurant vibe. Sonny goes out of his way to ensure every patron gets VIP treatment. The food is good, not knock your socks off great but adequate as part of an overall enjoyable, sexy and romantic dining experience. Make sure Sonny makes your coffee. Traditional Cuban style that was exceptional. We’ll be back even if it’s just to give him a hug.
