It feels like a big maze, where you keep discovering something new. Their nights vary with different events from djs to jazz and they have a variety of food on given nights. When I went they had pizza and tacos. A main bar with cocktails, a wine bar, and beer bar. I opted for the vodka passion fruit cocktail. It was pretty tasty, just had too much ice. It comes in a cute re-usable plastic cup. Staff was nice and helpful throughout the venue. There is seating scattered throughout Understory for food or just to relax. Definitely want to come back again soon!

If you are looking for a place where some of the best in Miami hospitality come together to create…read morethe coolest jungle vibes, look no further than Understory. Picture this - you walk into a tropical oasis and have the option of cocktails from Jaguar sun, wine selections from Bad Seed - a new wine bar pop up from Karina and the folks at Niu Wine -, rotating food from some of Miami's most loved chefs and last but not least - MUSIC! You'd think these folks just took your best friends magical back yard and created the most fun party in their house, but instead its at Understory and you can enjoy this oasis weekly on Thursday's and Fridays. I went for the first time last Thursday where I got to try a rum punch but with Mezcal that was delish. Then I moved on to a selection of delish wines and pizza by Flour and Weirdoughs. To say the vibe is impeccable is an understatement. I happily stayed until they closed at midnight, passing the time hanging out with friends and listening to the most fire playlist. They also have live jazz that starts at 9, which you can't really hear from the wine bar area since the space is so large, and DJs later in the evening as well as Friday. You can enjoy free entry before 8:30 pm. The best way to stay up to date on their weekly pop ups is to follow them on IG at @Understorymia. Can't wait to return!

We sat in the outdoor patio and it was beautiful. Moody lighting throughout, music, fans blowing and chatter all around make the experience incredible. Perfect for a girls night or date night. Service was absolutely incredible, throughout the night anyone that took care of us made sure to check on us and give us a little recommendation regarding the dish they were dropping off. Alex, our server, was amazing! Incredibly nice, personable, friendly and took his time to walk us through each dish and make sure we had an unforgettable night. We started the night with 2 pornstar martinis, which were delicious and served with a cup of prosecco. We got Parker House Rolls which were insane, extremely fluffy and fresh with a side of honey butter. The star dish of the night was the Agnolotti!! Absolute explosion of flavors, they were filled with what almost felt like a creamy corn soup, lathered in a delicious saffron sauce with pieces of blue crab. It was sweet, savory and a little sour, left me speechless. It was spectacular, balanced and beautifully made. The Hanger Stake was incredible as well, tender and cooked to perfection. Flavorful stake but the sweet glaze or sauce it came with was not my favorite, it took away from the flavor of the meat. Fries were order separately, since steak did not come with a side, and they were delicious and perfectly crispy. For dessert we ordered the Banana Toffee Cheesecake, it was delicious. Well balanced, the caramelized bananas and burnt toffee worked really nicely together. The key lime was a sweet surprise, very nice gesture from our server. Can't wait to be back and try the whole menu, the whole evening was perfect!

I've tried the burgers, pasta, pizza, ice cream, and this time I decided to try the lobster roll, which was delicious. One of my go-to favorites is the crab rolls, and I can never leave without grabbing cookies from Doña Posada. The concept is self-service, and the atmosphere is super relaxed and local, making it perfect for gatherings with friends or family. I totally recommend it if you're in the area and can't decide what to eat. This place has a little bit of everything for everyone!

I really wanted to love Citadel, but my overall experience left me with mixed feelings…read more On the positive side: the food was good, and the cleaning staff were extremely friendly, though clearly understaffed for the volume of people the place gets. That said, several things impacted my experience. It was very hot inside and packed with people, which makes it nearly impossible for the staff to provide good service. The exhaust/ventilation system doesn't seem sufficient for how busy the space gets, so you end up leaving with your hair and clothes smelling like food. The terrace looks lovely, but with Miami heat (easily 90°F), sitting outside isn't really a comfortable option. Lastly, most of the seating is uncomfortable, which doesn't help when the atmosphere is already overwhelming. Sorry, this is a place that I won't go back.

A large group of us gathered here for dinner and late-night drinks on a Friday night. This is a fun, happening spot. It's ideal if you're looking for a casual, laid-back night out in Miami. The rooftop can handle a lot of people. My wife and I ordered food downstairs at Manjay, the Caribbean/Haitian stall at the food court, and took it up to the rooftop (there's an elevator). You are allowed to do this at the Citadel (take food from the food court up to the roof). Staff on the rooftop will bus trays and tableware. I recommend Manjay, by the way, and left a review for it separately here on Yelp. On the rooftop, I had a couple of martinis, one extra dirty. They were well made and delicious. Our friends had a variety of drinks including beer (e.g., Monopolio Mexican amber lager). Pint glasses were served iced over which is certainly nice in the South Florida heat. Service was good. The staff was nice. Several of the chairs had holes in the seats, so that was annoying. The vibe was lively and friendly. Good music.

Then we got the panini special for the day and the bread was insanely delicious and all the ingredients tasted incredibly fresh. OH! And last but not least, the olive oil cake was truly outstanding. They have a stacked calendar of fun events and pop-ups too that make it a beautiful place to find community in the city, so I am beyond excited to come back and experience Bar Bucce for many times to come!

It also carries a lot of Italian products,for instance, I found apple cookies here that I hadn't been able to find anywhere else. Service was good, though no one ever came by to clear the plates from the table, which matters to me since I like to linger and chat after the meal, and having all the dishes piled up in the middle isn't very comfortable. It's self-service, but they're still supposed to come by and clear the table. 100% recommended!

The restaurant is conveniently located right on the downtown strip with free street parking nearby, which is always a plus. The atmosphere was inviting from the moment we walked in. The host welcomed us and told us we could sit anywhere we liked, so we chose a quieter table away from the bar area. There is also a stage section that looked perfect for live music nights, although there was no entertainment during our visit. Overall, the ambiance was trendy, relaxed, and had a great neighborhood feel. They also appeared to have some very good happy hour specials for those who drink. Our server was very sweet and offered several recommendations. We decided to share the burrata appetizer and the skirt steak dinner. The steak arrived first and looked absolutely beautiful. The quality of the meat itself was outstanding and cooked very well. Unfortunately, there was a noticeable charred flavor from what seemed like a dirty grill, which took away from an otherwise excellent steak. It was disappointing because the quality of the meat was truly superb. The fries were also surprisingly good and almost tasted closer to sweet potato fries. At that point, we realized our burrata appetizer had been forgotten. Once we flagged down our server, she immediately corrected the mistake and brought it out quickly. Thankfully, it was absolutely delicious and ended up being one of the highlights of the meal. The fresh burrata paired perfectly with the heirloom tomatoes and tasted incredibly fresh and flavorful. Toward the end of dinner, service became difficult again. We were ready for more water, a box, and the check, but our server was nowhere to be found despite the restaurant not being particularly busy since it was still early in the evening. I eventually had to get up and ask the bartender for assistance. Overall, I really enjoyed the ambiance and appreciated the quality of the food. There were definitely some service inconsistencies, but the restaurant has a lot of potential and several dishes that stood out.
