While visiting Miami with my husband and daughter, I wanted to show them this building which was once a cool but rundown apartment building known as the Amsterdam in the 1980s, when I lived there - before Gianni Versace bought it and turned it into his home. It took me back in time as the entry and lobby is still very much the same, and the walkway to the dining area, which was approx where the door to apt 106 once was. Being there brought back some great memories. The dining area was once another building which GV knocked down to make room for his patio and pool, behind which stands a beautiful, somewhat ostentatious, mosaic tiled wall which fortunately did not cross the line into gaudiness.

As a fellow industry worker from West Kendall, it’s refreshing to see a staple in West Kendall that hits every category, service and hospitality on point, Andres was knowledgeable on the menu, and patient. Overall, it’s one of Dade County’s best. Bartender that worked last nights shift was on point, displayed elegance and professionalism as he built his rounds. Host moving around like a swan, and controlling the pace of the floor.

What a cool place! I highly recommend making a reservation because it was very full even on a Tuesday night. Their birthday package was very nice, and the food was truly incredible. The whole place had a very lively vibe, and was beautifully decorated for the holidays. The parking situation is a little challenging, but at least the valet was free. I would definitely go back to celebrate other events. It seems great for a company party, as well. 

We love Cooper's Hawk, in Doral, Tampa and the North Naples location also. The food is consistently good, and excellent wine!

Everything was very good! My waiter Alex was awesome and very informative! Customer and kid friendly! Very nice food was really good also!
