What an experience. One random Thursday we decided to go and try this place out considering all the…read morehype and the vibe was less than impressive. To start when we walked up to the restaurant, there was a pretty lady wearing a club style red dress on the phone and didn't even bat an eye when we walked in, so we didn't think she was the hostess. When we walked into the actual restaurant, it looked cool however considering the owner is Alex de Gente de Zona, the music sounded like someone turned on 101.5 Lite FM. It took about a minute for the hostess to walk in and greet us (the lady in the red dress) and take us to the table. As we perused the menu, I got excited by the selections. The server Ashley (I think that was her name) was great. Extremely personable and loved her candor about our selections and making sure we ordered enough food. However she informed us that a few of the plates we were most excited for, were no longer available and they were redoing the menu. At the end of the night the food was mediocre for the price. I'm giving it 3 stars because I might consider having drinks there but may never go back for dinner. The music started changing slightly as we were paying our bill. could have been the night? Don't know but that doesn't excuse the food not being worth the price.

Guess we came at a good time cause later we did see more people come in. For starters, the staff here were all so professional and welcoming. Shoutout to MARIA for being the sweetest! Great recommendations from her. I loved the food so much. Mix ceviche -- so refreshing and loved the variety Jalea Bocas house (fried shrimp, fried fish, fried yuca fries) -- a little bit of everything and fried perfectly. Paired with the sauces. Skirt and fettuccine -- cooked as I requested (medium). Packed with flavor. SO FREAKING GOOD. Arroz cremoso de aji Amarillo with lomo saltado -- unique dish that worked so well. Recommend! Spicy margarita -- best drink here. Mezcal mule -- my mom and I didn't really like it because it was too smoky. Maria was kind enough to swap it out for us with another spicy margarita and didn't charge for the mezcal mule. Love the ambiance. They have daily promos on some of their items so be sure to check it out. I highly recommend this spot. 10/10

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 is consistently outstanding--beautifully presented, flavorful, and crafted with real passion. I want to give special recognition to Hotel Manager José, whose leadership clearly elevates the entire guest experience.

Their attention to detail, friendliness, and genuine care are what set Blue Matisse apart from every other restaurant in the area. Whether it's breakfast, lunch, or dinner, Blue Matisse is consistently exceptional.

Also sip into a refreshing mint Frappuccino to truly enjoy the swirling coffee flavors of the spot! The mint contrasts the sweetness of the coffee. Everything was fresh, quick, and hit the spot.

My boyfriend and I came in starving after our match, so we were definitely looking for something that felt like real fuel, not just a heavy brunch. I ordered the Power Wrap, which was packed with fresh ingredients and protein -- super satisfying without feeling heavy. I paired it with the Morning Meditation juice, which was bright, refreshing, and the perfect boost after a workout. My boyfriend ordered the Chimichurri Steak & Egg Hash, and wow... the flavors were incredible. The steak was tender and savory, the chimichurri added that perfect fresh kick, and everything together felt hearty and comforting. Of course, we also had to enjoy it with a great cup of coffee, which made the whole breakfast even better. Everything was delicious, fresh, and nourishing -- the kind of meal that leaves you feeling satisfied and energized instead of sluggish. If you want a great breakfast or brunch in Miami that feels both indulgent and healthy, First Watch is definitely a place worth visiting.

My wife had the bandeja paisa bowl, and I went with the risotto lomo saltado. That dish almost put me to sleep in the best way possible. Comfort food level 100. We had to finish the night with one of their coffees, and it was the perfect ending to the meal. Big shoutout to our server Elvis, who guided us through the menu and gave great recommendations. Usually menus with influences from so many different cultures can feel all over the place, but Luka somehow pulls it off perfectly. They're not just trying to do a little bit of everything. They truly feel like masters of it all. Definitely coming back.

Cada plato que probé fue una obra maestra -- la variedad, la sazón, la perfección en cada detalle. Una comida que trasciende fronteras y nacionalidades. En más de dos décadas viviendo aquí, jamás había comido algo tan auténtico, tan bien ejecutado, sin poder hacerle una sola crítica. Ni una. Hasta el café fue impecable. El lugar es hermoso, la atención cálida y genuina, y se siente el amor y la dedicación detrás de cada cosa que sirven. La buena comida no necesita que seas de un país específico para tocarte el corazón, solo necesita estar hecha con alma. Y en Luka, el alma se siente desde el primer bocado hasta el último sorbo de café. ¡Volveré sin duda!
