It's Friday about 6:00pm in Coral Gables and just got outta meeting and traffic is horrible in South Florida, so happy looks like a good idea. Many choices of good restaurants with full bar in Coral Gables, but this time decided to try something new. Heard of CEBADA ROOFTOP on a news report on WSVN that promotes new restaurant, so decided to give it a try. At first had a hard time finding because when looking for address it's not your typical storefront restaurant on Giralda Ave, but look for a glass door and hall way that will lead up to roof and restaurant. It was a very nice experience, music is fine, tapas style food was good, our waiter was very attentive and nice. place had good decor and nice ambience, I feel is more like elegant casual than just casual. I would recommend this place and definitely would come back. top read more

I came late so I couldn't indulge on the happy hour deals but they have awesome cocktails. It's much bigger than I expected and the service is great. The menu is a bit on the pricier side but that's why Miami loves happy hour, am I right? read more

Came to Cebada for Happy Hour with Co-workers and really enjoyed my experience. The vibe was amazing and the music was very mellow and nice. The Happy House drink menu has a lot of options. I had the "it just tingles bro" and it was delicious and similar to a spicy margarita. We tried the croquettas which were great with a queso cream. We also had the pork bao buns which were amazing but we were told they are discontinuing them so make sure to go soon to try them! The waitress was also great and very attentive. read more

I've been wanting to try out Cebada since they opened since I've heard nothing but good things. Unfortunately on the day that we made the reservation it was raining, but they still have a covered space to seat us. Our server came over right away, and we all ordered passion fruit. Mojito's were delicious. Most of the food is tapas style so you'll share it with everybody. To start we ordered the corn ribs which is basically corn sliced off the stock with cheese and seasoning on it. I haven't had corn this way, but it was delicious. We also ordered the Croquetas, which came in a pack of six round Croquetas of Jamón(ham). They were very tasty and the sauce was a perfect complement to them. Lastly, for the appetizers, we ordered the baby back ribs, and those were my favorite! Full of flavor, and fall off the bone deliciousness. For the main course, we shared the flap steak which is large enough in my opinion to be split between two people. A friend of ours had the garlic fettuccine, and it was also very very good. We were too full to have any of dessert but I'm sure the desserts are also amazing. We all had a great time, and I would definitely like to come back to see the happy hour vibe on a sunny day. Even in the rain they had covered options and everything was great so we will definitely be back. It actually wasn't as normally packed. Which meant we got our food faster which was a good thing since we were hungry! read more

Stopped off for happy hour on the way home. They have dollar oysters on Tuesday which were delicious. The pan con tomate and ham croquetas were also good. They have specialty drinks for $10 and wines by the glass for $9. A shoutout to Q, the bartender who took good care of me. read more

Love coming here for happy hours, and it's a great spot to start off the night. Rooftop bar in the gables near miracle mile. In the center of everything. Haven't had their food but their wine is good and their drinks are great. Some of their drinks come premade which is a little annoying if you want to change anything but the servers are super nice and they give you recommendations based on your likes to create you your own drink. It's also always a great vibe here! There's music, there's comfy seating, there's a view -- what's not to like? Love this place! read more

One of my favorite spots in the Gables! The cutest rooftop bar with the best tapas and cocktails! Looking for a spot to have happy hour with friends, a birthday dinner or even a date night! This little rooftop bar is definitely the spot! There are so many delicious options to choose from! We did a tapas style dinner and just shared a bunch of appetizers to try a few things on the menu! What we ordered - - Fish dip on a crispy chip 10/10 - Raw oysters 9/10 - Ceviche 10/10 - Jamón Serrano Croquetas con Queso 11/10 (must try) - Margarita (cocktail) 11/10 Ambiance is lovely and food is delish! Can't go wrong with this spot! Enjoy! read more

The service was ok and the rooftop is kind of cool, however the food and drinks were underwhelming. We went on happy hour , they do have some drinks at a discounted price (some of them premixed frozen ) . We ordered croquetas de Jamon that did not taste like ham not they did have visible traces of ham in them. A hamburger full of ingredients that tasted like burnt meat and an eggplant mousse that was ok. Overall may be a good place to share drinks with friends at happy hour. Not worth a visit for the food. read more

One of my new favorite. Outdoor rooftop seating is always a bonus. We were provided with warm napkins which was such a nice touch and Marquis at the bar truly made our experience that much better. Food is spectacular! The DJ on Thursday nights is always a mood and $1 oysters on Tuesdays. read more

What a great atmosphere! Nice place to get a couple drinks with friends and mingle. This rooftop restaurant/bar has a great list of cocktails with some fun names for each and every one. The first cocktail I dived into was, "SI TE COJO TE MOJITO" it was their take on a mojito with a passion fruit essence. Extremely delicious! I later tried "TWO WHITE GUYS GO TO A DONKEY SHOW AND...." this spicy mango margarita was exquisite, my favorite that I tried. As an appetizer, the ham croquettes were round balls that just slowly melted upon your tongue. Overall, the service was great. Our server Lisa, was very attentive and checked on us on multiple occasions. read more

Finally tried Cebada and wow, we were blown away. Be warned, you will have to endure the brutal Miami heat, but the vibes, service, and food will make it worth every bead of sweat dripping down your face. We planned to just pop in for one drink and leave, but we enjoyed ourselves so much that we ended up having a couple of rounds and trying some of the bites from the menu. The service: One of a kind. We always have a really hard time finding good service, so when we get it, it's a big deal. Gio and Alejandro took care of us. Gio made me an amazing martini. He also made food recommendations, which we appreciated. We were going to order the steak bao buns, and he suggested the lechón, which was a great recommendation. After my Martini, I ordered a glass of rose. Gio comes over with two glasses of wine, which confused me at first. Then I realized he was offering me a sampling of two of the rose's they offered so that I could choose which I preferred. That small gesture blew me away. He and Alejandro were both super attentive, fun, and made great recommendations. Someone get these guys a raise! The food: Delicious. The lechón bao buns are the best bao buns I have ever had. They were recommended by Gio and did not disappoint. We inhaled them, so no time to take a pic. But yum! They toast them on the outside and sprinkle some coarse salt on them. Delish. We also had the duck dumplings, which were served in a really interesting sauce and also delicious! These were also recommended by Gio. The drinks: I had an espresso martini, which I found to be one of the better ones I have had in Miami. My fiancé had Every Belen Guy's Christmas Vacation, which he enjoyed. I really enjoyed my glass of rose. So refreshing on a hot day. We can't wait to come back!! read more

I was recommended this spot by a friend! I was in town visiting and let me tell it did not disappoint. I had their Chorrizo coca, ceviche, Jamon croquetas, brussel sprouts, and patitas bravas. It was delicious! The service was amazing, very friendly and knowledgeable! The views and location is amazing!!! I love their drink names, and was looking for vodka inspred drink and Alyssa our server, recommend I try the Bruce lychee drink! It was amzazing! She also gave us a few other spots to tour while in town!. We'll definitely come back and recommend Cebada! read more

Food/ drinks: went with a group of people and I personally ordered off their Happy Hour menu. Everything I ordered was good EXCEPT the whipped eggplant. It had no flavor at all. I added lime and salt and it was still awfully bland. Service: service was good. They added gratuity and didn't mention it upon paying. I asked for a paper receipt and that's how I noticed. Not sure I would have if I just reviewed my bill from their hand held card reader. Here's the fun part. We were given a 2 hour limit at our table. The waitress cashed us out at the 2 hour mark. The place was 1/2 empty AND there were no lines of people waiting to get in. -1 star for eggplant, -1 star for no mention of tip AND being "kicked out". Would I go back? Sure, if someone else suggests it . I wouldn't necessarily suggest it . read more

My friend and I were walking Miracle mile without a place in mind but we wanted a vibe to grab a quick bite and drink so we dropped in without reservations. The place was packed with not an empty space at the bar and not empty table available. But the atmosphere was defiantly a vibe, with great music playing. We thought when giving our name we would have to wait but luckily there was two folks leaving at the perfect time and we were able to grab a table. The menu is on the smaller side, but you can definitely order 2-3 shareable plates per person to try some of their delicious tapas. Or you can go all out and get one of their seafood plates. The drinks had the most unique names on a menu i had ever seen but they were super tasty. I had the Peach please and the why are your pants so tight, both great! The service was both speedy and friendly. Definitely glad we got to try this spot out. read more

Yes! Yes! Yes! Great food, catchy and delicious cocktail choices and the music took me back to the 90's where music was really poppin! I absolutely loved it! We loved it and can't wait to go back. The lobster rolls without sesame seeds were mouthwatering. And the corn ribs is a must try! For us, it was the spot to start the night, grab a few cocktails and wine from happy hour and nibble on some bites and then paint the town red! It was nice and we will certainly be returning. Be sure to make a reservation! Jasmine, the hostess, took our reservation the day before and she was just as bubbly and helpful when we arrived. Thanks Jasmine! read more

I am absolutely in love with Coral Gables first rooftop bar. I had the opportunity to check it out this week for happy hour, and it did not disappoint- HH is from 5 to 7 PM Monday- Friday. They offer great specials on cocktails, frozen style drinks beer and wine. We shared a cheeseboard, with manchego, parm, blue cheese, walnuts, almonds, etc. I tried the Paloma frozen drink, my friend had the Aperol Spritz- both excellent. I look forward to stopping by again hopefully for dinner to try their menu as everything looked amazing. read more

First I love love that there is finally a rooftop bar in Coral Gables! Another great spot to enjoy some creative cocktails and enjoy some oysters (they only carry two options one from the east and west). The atmosphere is great for after work or if you're starting your night out. However, wish there were more lounge chairs so party of 2s can also enjoy and relax while sipping our glass of wine or cocktails. But sitting at the high top bar table overlooking Giralda is also a plus. It's the spot to check out so make reservations. read more

What a fun, hidden spot! It was our first time here, and we want to come back to try more! The location is easy to get to, and parking is easy. It has an outdoor covered patio with an indoor bar on the second floor. The decoration is tropical, with Miami vibes with scattered houseplants, wicker, and clean white counters. We only ordered drinks at the bar and were pleasantly surprised! I ordered the drink "Bro, why are your pants so tight" with the flavor profile of guava and lime with vodka. It is delicious! Very fresh! My boyfriend ordered the Old Cuban with flavors of Mamey, Flor de Cana, Mint, and Prosseco. Hint Mamey flavors towards the end and overall tasty. The food menu looks excellent! I want to come back and try more. I'm the meantime; the bar was phenomenal. read more

New spot in Coral Gables!!! Had a blast last night at Cebada Rooftop. Coral Gables was definitely missing a rooftop restaurant and I never realize until last night. This place was a great addition to the Coral Gables area. You have to take an elevator upstairs and this reminded me of places in San Francisco and New York but a lot more cleaner. Once you're upstairs, you're greeted by the host! There's a perfect picture taking section to your left once you get off the elevator. I love them places do that! I feel like it shows that the owner thought about multiple factors when considering their restaurant/bar. This makes it fun for the customer! The drinks were amazing and I loved the creative names! They were aesthetically pleasing to the eye as well and you can tell a lot of work was put into it. They had a VARIETY to choose from! I loved the guava, mojito and coffee one!!! They have a small selection of food but I feel like it was perfect to match the environment and so it doesn't take focus away from the alcohol section. Perfect for a night out to have some light bites as well. I definitely recommend this place and props to the owner for opening such a cool spot. Will definitely come back and try out their happy hour read more

"I had a terrible experience at this restaurant. Despite HAVING a reservation, the hostess never asked for our name and seated us in a place that should not even have chairs. IT was near the chimneys, making it unbearably hot, and the view was directly into the roof next door. We had come for dinner, not just drinks, and the seating arrangement was completely inappropriate. At one point, the server felt bad and try to moved us to another table, only to remove us because it was apparently reserved. While the food was good and the waiter was attentive, the overall experience was awful. I would never return. That section should not even be open for seating." The hostess was so RUDE!! read more

Cebada Rooftop - Roof Top - Wine Bars Near Me - Coral Gables, Florida

Food was phenomenal, we got the pumpkin gnocchi and the squid ink pasta. Both were fantastic. Don't overlook the pan con tomate, it's a classic but the nailed the freshness. Only downfall was that we sat inside for dinner (which we had reservations for since it was our 6 month anniversary) and we got sat by the bathrooms (one stall each, not great and smelled putrid) where the ceiling was dripping water the entire time. Doors were kept open despite the humidity and we were swarmed by mosquitos all of dinner. Our server was nice but was very absent during our meal, we had to flag down another waitress a few times since it seems they forgot about us. Overall, probably would come back but not super inclined to. read more

What a wonderful place to meet up for some drinks or dinner. Started off at the bar during happy hour, ordered myself one of the house draft cocktails called "Relax, it only tingles a little" and not only was it refreshing and delicious but so cutely decorated, a flamingo printed straw and a decorative flamingo on my drink, it was so good I had to order a second one and this time it came with a cactus decorated straw and a little yellow ducky for decoration. After the drinks we asked to sit at a table and even though we didn't have a reservation we were quickly sat. We had a wonderful dinner under the full moon and every dish we ordered was better than the one before. We shared all of the dishes we ordered so we could try all the items. Started with some cauliflower, seasoned in a cream sauce and toasted breadcrumbs, so yummy. Also ordered the smoked duck drummets, a first for me, and the meat was falling off the bone. The Australian flap steak we ordered was also cooked to the temperature we asked for and was flavorful. And for dessert we ordered the Tina donut balls which were so light and fluffy that it was hard to stop eating those little bite size deliciousness. I highly recommend all these dishes and already planned another visit to keep exploring the menu. read more

We came to Cebada for a 40th birthday celebration and I was really looking forward to going because all of Miami and Coral Gables has been speaking of this place. To start off, we loved the entrance, looks like you're in the wrong area but the elevator takes you right up to the entrance of the rooftop. Once we were acclimated with the group, we started getting helped by Ali, which was truly amazing the whole night remembering our names and what we wanted as drinks as they kept coming. We tried the round ham croquettes with the guava dip and it was amazing, it was our favorite of the night. But there were others that we tried, like the flat bread pizza, strips of corn, and mini sandwiches. All priced well for their sizes. Only bad thing about going in July, even at 9pm, is that it's super hot, although they did have a lot of fans everywhere to try to keep people cool. I did wear Jeans but wished I would have worn shorts. read more

Food was ok but not worth the price. Service was terrible, they are like machines and are not in the spirit of serving, more worried about when their shift ends to go home. The drinks were also watery and it's more about the decoration and presentation than the quality and taste of it. Ambiance was nice, buzzy place. Overall I would not recommend it because food and service are average but you are paying premium for it. read more

This is was my fist time in this places, and everything was amazing. I loved the vibe, the music, and the service. This is a new place in Ponce de Leon.

They also have a nice selection of wines if you are a wine lover. I hope you enjoy your visit like i did. read more
