BRUNCH DATE DONE RIGHT!…read more Today's brunch date at Jealous Fork was EVERYTHING! From the delicious, creative food to the excellent customer service and the reasonable prices --this place checked ALL the boxes! The food was fresh, flavorful, beautifully presented, and definitely worth talking about! And you know a restaurant is doing something right when the service makes you feel genuinely welcomed. We had the pleasure to be served by Toni & Gabby. Their service and recommendations were impeccable. We were also pleasantly surprised to meet one of the owners. Joaquin was humble and very friendly. Sometimes you don't need anything fancy... just good food, great company, and a little quality time together.

The food and drinks are consistently amazing. I've been coming here since they first opened (I believe back in 2014), and I'll keep coming back. Their menu is packed with bold, flavorful dishes, an impressive cocktail selection, and honestly, they were one of the places that got me through COVID! From the pizzas to the entrées, everything is outstanding. I celebrated my birthday here just last week, and as always, it was excellent. The churrasco is consistently tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. The mushroom risotto is rich, creamy, and bursting with earthy mushroom goodness. For dessert, we shared the warm banana bread with salted caramel ice cream, and wow... I still can't stop thinking about it. Whether it's happy hour, lunch, dinner, or a special occasion, Finka never ever ever disappoints. After all these years, it's still one of my favorite spots in Miami, and I recommend it to everyone looking for a memorable lunch, dinner or happy hour, do it right and come to Finka.

Unfortunately, today was a very different experience. It took about five minutes for anyone to acknowledge us, even though the bar wasn't busy. I ordered an Old Cuban Old Fashioned, one of my favorites, and was surprised to see the bartender use his hands instead of tongs to put the ice into the glass. I ended up sending the drink back because the glass was dirty. The second drink was made by another bartender, and again, I noticed him using his hands instead of tongs to handle the ice. The food was still great, but after today's experience, I'll definitely be paying much closer attention to how my drinks are prepared. I've always had a great experience at Finka, which is why today was especially disappointing. I hope this was just an off day and not a change in their usual standards.

We came here due to it being pretty close to our hotel and needing to grab dinner and not wanting…read moreto go to a full fledged sit down location. This restaurant is located in an unassuming stripmall. There is plenty of parking available. I didn't go in with any real expectations. We had 9 total people, so I wasn't sure if they'd be able to accommodate all of us. When we walked in you're greeted by a small counter where the staff is working quickly on orders and to-go orders. There are high top tables with seating and then lots of arcade games. The kids absolutely loved all the arcade games! I took a look at the menu and I opted to get a smash burger and fries. My husband got a smash burger and chili fries, and my kiddo got a smash burger and fries. You order at a kiosk, and then they call your order at the counter and you grab it. Everything came out hot. I was eager to dig into my burger and it was delicious! Not too big, not too small. The burger was flavorful. The fries were hot and crispy, with just enough salt. This place is a real gem. It's no frills, but great for kids and adults who love arcade games and burgers. Def recommend!

It's located in a shopping mall, the place is very small but offers seating. They have a few old fashioned video games in the dining area, which I thought was pretty cool. The ladies behind the counter were very nice and friendly despite being busy. There was a steady stream of customers coming in, mostly for take out. We split the chicken burrito and the truffle fries, which I'm glad we did because there is no way we could have eaten the whole thing. Portions are big! The burrito was covered in cheese, which gave it a nice crispy crunch on one side. Food was good, greasy as expected and giving a little food truck vibes. Their garlic cilantro sauce is fire! All in all, the place was pretty good.

We had some time between our arrival and our hotel check-in time, so we opted to hang for a bit. The bartender was excellent. She was not only friendly but quick with service and suggestions for options. The food and drinks were on par with the brand and good, as always! The pricing is standard for the chain and the area. They have plenty of seating and it's a large spot. The overall vibe is welcoming, clean, and rustic aesthetic. It is easy to just relax and hang out here! Overall: A+ Would def go back and hope to get the same bartender!!

The kids both had cheese pizza and fruit, and the pizza was really good! My sister and I each had the grilled chicken sandwich. It had whipped feta and bacon which added so much flavor and made it uniquely tasty. The French fries had their own herb seasoning which was especially good too. We both agreed the sandwich was the perfect portion as well. Our server, Courtney, was very attentive and friendly. And the restaurant had a sophisticated and pretty ambiance. My sister kept saying how much she loved the color scheme and the decor and how we made a great decision going there for lunch! I would definitely recommend, but I especially look forward to going back for brunch and some drinks!

There were several people recording videos here. They seemed like they were influencers. The environment felt a little off with them there. The restaurant is really decorated well.

I enjoyed the show occasionally as a guilty pleasure, but I'm really not big into the whole reality TV does dining type of thing, however my hubs has had Hell's Kitchen on his must eat list for years. We never made it to the one in Vegas last year, so I thought Id treat him to lunch at this yesterday after a work event he was honored at. After yesterday's experience, I have no problem admitting I was wrong and will wholeheartedly walk that sentiment back. Hell's Kitchen impressed me, which if you've read my reviews isn't always an easy thing to do. The food flavors were all on point, service was exceptional, and the coursing time hit the mark from start to finish. The only reason this is 4 stars and not 5, is hubby's main was not very hot. There were only a handful of tables at the time so that element was a bit disappointing. I opted for Miami Spice, and hubs picked the Express lunch which comes out to a better deal for what he ordered. We never had to look for a server for water, and they were really accommodating in adjusting my order (I have to have sauces on side and low salt right now because of a health issue). On to the main event, the meal! Drinks: Strawberry & Mint Spritz: This N/A bev sounded interesting on paper but neither of us super enjoyed it. It was just a little too syrupy sweet. I love that they're using N/A prosecco and apertivos though and not just putting a bunch of juice and sodas in a cup and calling it a mocktail. If we ever make it back I'd be up for trying a different one on the list or a real deal cocktail. Caesar salad: This was a generous portion with delicate parmesan crisps and large crunchy croutons. The limited amount of dressing I did use was delicious and perfectly balanced. I skipped most of the croutons as they were too salty for me, but probably perfect for the average Joe. Carrot soup: My guy enjoyed this thoroughly, and stopped short of licking the bowl. I tried it, but it wasn't my cup of tea. The presentation was lovely. Crispy Skin Salmon: This was my choice from the Miami Spice menu. It's miso marinated and served with a crispy sushi rice cake, sautéed baby bok choy, and a miso beurre blanc which they put on the side for me. I asked for the fish to be cooked well done, and they nailed that. It was perfection on the tongue and still delicate and moist in spite of being fully cooked. The skin was expertly crisp as well and really tasty. The only negative of this dish was the oil factor. Salmon is oily on its own, but this plate was dripping from the rice cake to the bok choy, and that's omitting the beurre blanc entirely. Speaking of, everything was so flavorful on its own that the dish carried itself without any extra salt or sauce. I did try the beurre blanc with a few bites though and it was nice. Petit Beef Wellington: Aside from not being hot enough, hubby overall enjoyed this. He prefers a lumpy skin on mash, but I thought the mash purée was divine. We just both wish it was hotter when it came out. Cherry Blossom Cheesecake: I haaaate that almond extract taste found in cherry cordials, and this was loaded with it from my one bite. Thankfully I didn't order this. Hubs did, and loved it! Also the plating was beautiful! Sticky Toffee Pudding: Was this the best STP I've ever had? No. Was it enjoyable? Absolutely! In hindsight, I wish hubs had gotten the 2 course express menu and split this dessert with me because it's full size and a massive overload of sugar for one person. I barely ate a quarter and ended up in a sugar coma the rest of the day. Would I still order it again? You bet your sweet ass! To wrap this up, this was a surprisingly enjoyable meal. The check still packed a punch though at $150 for two with one mocktail. Overall I do think it's a great pick for a nicer meal with upscale British and European favorites with a global inspired twist.

Mission is a chain that has restaurants in many states. It pays tribute to those who serve our country: firefighters, police, first responders and the military. There are many photos on the wall of people in uniform, including a few movie posters, such as Tom Cruise in Top Gun, as well as badges of various military, police and firefighter branches. The first good sign for food quality is when we placed our order and was asked, if we want the brisket moist or lean. Different people like their brisket differently, no wrong answer there just preference, and I'm glad we are given a choice. The brisket is moist, as we like. the cornbread though was too dry, and the collard greens too salty. They offer six different sauces, and my fave is the Florida one with mango. While we were dining, a staff came by, and gave us two cards to welcome our first visit, with very generous offer to entice us to return. Wow, thank you! Though I have to say, even without the cards we will!

The food was great and they had a small arcade. I figured this would be a great place to watch a game but never got to do it since I do not live close by. Forward to last weekend: there was a World Cup game that I wanted to watch and an errand to run at Dolphin Mall afterward. So I figured: what better place than Sports & Social? They required a cc deposit for reservations so I didn't make one. And also realized I didn't need to when I walked in. There is an outside watch area without service in the heat (no idea why anyone would watch it there and nobody did since it was empty). When I walked in, the host barely acknowledged me and kept chatting to someone else. We were told it's self seating but that I can't sit in a booth since we are only two people. I sat in one regardless and it wasn't a problem. Why would you tell a mom with a child to sit on a high top if there are other options available? Especially since there was a single man in booth next to me and a family of three on the other side next to me. Anyhow, my waitress was nice but service was so slow! I ordered a cheeseburger for my son and boneless wings for me. The food took a whole hour to come! They brought out the tiniest cheeseburger patty I've ever seen for my son. All the sauces I asked for were missing and I had to ask again for the side salad I ordered. Wings were supposed to be mild but way to too spicy. I didn't finish them. Asked a few times for unsweet tea but they didn't have any. Yes, the big screens are great but the TVs went out two times for a few minutes. They said it's because there's a cloud outside. Also, the arcade stuff was completely gone and under construction. Wanted to order desert but since everything took so long, I decided to order the check right before game end.
