After noting this place had such a high overall rating on Yelp, we were really expecting good…read morethings - and since we like wine bars in general, we were excited to try Sospiro. Our first visit here was on a Tuesday night. We arrived a bit more than an hour before their posted closing time, but the place appeared to be empty. After waiting in the main bar/dining area for a few minutes with no one greeting us (though I could hear people talking back in what I believe is the kitchen) we decided to leave. We returned a few nights later after having dinner at nearby Flemings, were seated right away, given menus and we each ordered a glass of wine. After our wine was poured, we were basically forgotten about and we kind of felt like outsiders here, because most everyone at the bar and seated at 2 or 3 of the tables all seemed to know each other: The guy who'd been our server sat down at a table and ate/drank with the woman there. The guys seated at the bar grabbed glasses and served wine to women sitting at the other 2 stools, but there didn't seem to be any staff simply checking on the rest of us. The one employee who did later check in on some dining patrons was walking around with his 1/2 finished glass of wine in hand while doing so. Needless to say, our 2 visits here were both a bit odd. Service, at least for us was badly lacking, and compared to another wine bar and a few restaurants we patronize in this general area, the pours we were given here at Sospiro were a bit stingy. Sad, too, as we really enjoy good wine spots and were hoping we'd found a solid one in Sospiro. Not the case, at least in our experience.

We received great, friendly, and attentive service by Jofrey. We enjoyed the short rib tacos, oysters, meat balls, grilled olives from the happy hour menu and the mussels, beets burrata, and tiramisu tres leches from the main menu. Everything was flavorful and delicious. We also tried their Cool Breeze and Mula Naranja mocktails, but very different but refreshing. Absolutely enjoyed them. If you are in the area, do not hesitate to stop by. It's really nice place. *Tip was not automatically included on the bill and suggested tip started at 18%

It's cute, moody, but not over done so perfect for date night or girls night. All their wines are great and you can't beat the price at $9 a glass. They recently extended the happy hour from 6pm to 7pm which I'm glad!! Now the food - I have never had a bad item from here. I will forever talk about their bacon wrapped dates (not pictured). And this trip I absolutely fell in love with the spinach cheese dip. My one complaint is why does it only come with three toasties? I had to ask for more, which they gladly accommodated me - and the same with the guys next to me. But if you're bringing me a whole bowl of deliciousness, I need more than three toasties with it!!!

My friend and I…read moreusually go to the spot in Midtown but the service tonight made this my new favorite location. Everyone from the bartenders to the server, to the hostesses were all extremely lovely and accommodating. They were very hospitable and made sure that any request that we had would be attempted. We ordered the Swordfish special and Cacio E Pepe pasta. The pasta was good but the swordfish was really what was cooked to perfection! It was not too soft but not rubbery at all. I liked the lemon caper butter sauce as well. We also grabbed a burrata because...why not? It was also decadent and scrumptious despite it being a slightly small portion size but still adequate for two to share. We were also asked if we wanted any extra cheese on top of the pasta which we definitely obliged! The lighting was gorgeous on the patio and very romantic. It was a nice spot right in the heart of Coral Gables and the nice experience has me wanting to return so soon.

A really quite delicious Spanish Tapa restaurant hindered by really god-awful service…read more We were seated during happy hour and only the second occupied table in the establishment. "Lucky us," we thought, "now our waiter surely won't be distracted." How naive! After sitting around aimlessly, our menus finally arrived five minutes after sitting down. Our drink orders finally taken ten minutes after that, and my mother was weirdly talked down to while asking a simple question about happy hour. Despite all of that, we were still looking forward to our meal, enjoyed our tapas, and awaited our main. It never came, and as the waiter came by to ask us how everything was we told him what was missing. Apologetic he was not. Unfortunately, the food really was quite good and genuine (otherwise it would be easier to write La Taberna Giralda off completely). Its ambiance is cute, despite its harsh overhead lighting, and it's surely a nice place to take in a Flamenco show or some Spanish music. Still, if you're someone who expects or enjoys good service, I recommend you take your business elsewhere.

The service was exceptional, the Resturant is quiet and the owner Sebsatio. Gave use great service. My wife started with the beat salad which was remarkable. The beats were soft and tasty. I started with an arugula with shave fennel salad very good but not as tasty as my wife's salad. Shen then had the filet which was perfectly cooked and had an incredible mushroom sauce. I had the linguine with clam sausage. Best I have ever had including numerous restaurants in Italy. For desert we split the tiramisu whose was tremendous although I think the lady fingers could have used a little more rum or liquor. Only minor issue was no vegetable with the filet but not a big issue. Overall I highly recommend this Resturant and will be back. Do not wait to go here since it is so so good.

Horrible Experience - Blatant Discrimination and Zero Service…read more Today June 26th, 2026 I would give this place zero stars if I could. The experience my partner and I had at El Carajo was absolutely disgraceful. From the moment we walked in, it was clear we were not welcome. After being seated, we were completely abandoned. We sat at our table for over 12 minutes without a single employee acknowledging our presence. The waitress actively ignored us, completely bypassing our table to serve other parties who arrived after us. She never came over to greet us, never offered us water, and never took our order. It became painfully obvious that this absolute lack of service was not an oversight, but deliberate discrimination because we are a gay couple. To be treated like we were invisible and inherently unwelcome in a public establishment is deeply hurtful and completely unacceptable. The environment felt hostile, and the blatant prejudice we experienced ruined our evening. We ultimately had to leave without even ordering. Do not support this establishment if you value equality, respect, and basic human decency. They do not deserve your business.

For years Xixon was one my favorite restaurants in Miami. It felt like a little piece of northern…read moreSpain. A true Spanish "restaurant" ambiance where even the servers were Spanish with whom you could talk about the old country. What a disappointment it was to see the place has transformed into a night club with Latin America music (with extensive profanity) so loud we couldn't even have a conversation or understand what the servers were saying. The menu changed for the worse, two of plates we wanted have been removed although they still show in the menu. Also remarkable the service was below pedestrian. Servers vaping and smoking hukka (not sure if spelled correctly) while serving. Maybe it is the ownership is aiming to a different audience, and as good capitalist, I wish them much success. However, those who like me used to love the old Xixon should know is gone. It is just not for me, my family and at least those accompanying us tonight. So long!
