PINECREST Location 9559 S Dixie Hwy Pinecrest, FL 33156…read moreWe visited this place today for the first time. The food was very tasty. The meat servers were so attentive and sweet. The hostess and waitress were unbelievably kind. The owner / manager was so delightful to speak with. Ok so normally I would not complain, but the music was uncomfortably loud. Other than the music being so loud we absolutely recommend this place hands down.

We Tried this new place for us last night and the bartender completely ruined the experience. He…read morewas extremely rude. From the moment we sat down, the guy looked annoyed that we were there. Zero greeting, zero eye contact. We waited almost 10 minutes just to get acknowledged while he was chatting with another customers at the other end of the bar. When he finally took our order, he barely listened. I asked for a classic Old Fashioned and he brought me something that tasted like watered-down whiskey with too much bitters and a random orange slice thrown in. My friend's whiskey sour was unbalanced -- definitely not worth the $18 price tag. I politely mentioned to recommend us another drinks options he just shrugged and said "we don't have that" Not offer another choice or an apology. The drinks were mediocre at best, but his attitude made it worse. He ignored us most of the night and acted annoyed every time we ordered. Zero professionalism. The place has a great vibe but with service like this, is not worth to spend almost $200 dollars there for few drinks. I don't remember his name but he was tall, Latin and maybe from Colombia. We just wanted to report his behavior to management but in a Saturday's night you just don't want to ruined more. Next.

I came here with a friend after a nearby event. It was late at night, but let me tell you, this is…read morethe spot. It was my first time and it certainly won't be my last. So, let's get into it: I don't know about you, but the one thing I do not enjoy doing is driving and circling around, being lost, just to find an establishment. So, I love that this restaurant is so easy to find with good signage, lots of nearby parking, both street and lots. Anywho, once I parked, the manager Judd was so friendly and kind and directed me to the table where my friend was seated. He overheard that I was kind of speaking loud over the music when I barely had a voice due to losing it from another event, so he kindly turned down the music for us. Once there, service was quick and attentive. I got a Fresh Paloma for my drink and the Seared Salmon for dinner. The drink was a good size and tasted good, no complaints there. As for the dinner, WOW. This was delicious, I would get this again. The flavors were there and the portions were just perfect (not too much and not too little, I usually never get enough or leave with leftovers). Also, not overpriced for Miami in my opinion. Aside from that, I did try some of my friend's off-menu pasta and it was really yummy. Furthermore, they have great weekly specials: (Note, subject to change. Please check Instagram or call for Current Week): Tuesday: Burgers and Bottles, $10 Burgers and Half off Select Bottles of Wine Wednesday: Double Loyalty Points and Fire, Flour & Fizz ($12 Pizzas, $12 Aperol Spritz, $7 Prosecco, 5pm-close) Thursday Ladies Night: Complimentary Bubbly for Ladies 4pm-7pm Sunday: 10am-4pm Bloody Mary Bar Go check it out, I don't think you'll regret it. Let me know what you think! :)

We loved the Lychee Martini, Paloma and especially the Old 57 which is their version of an Old Fashioned. It's open for weekend brunch, lunch, dinner, and they also have an amazing happy hour!

They have a unique rosemary taste and come with an aioli that is out of this world. So good! I saw that there are places to sit at night and different events like ladies night, happy hour, etc. I plan to try one of them as I truly enjoyed the atmosphere of this restaurant.

It's a neighborhood institution that has held its own for close to three decades. Is it pristine and sparkly on the inside? No. It's a dive bar for fuggs sake. Drinks are strong, music is loud, and vibes are vibing. If I've got friends visiting that aren't into the over-priced voids of Brickell and South Beach, you can bet Bougie's is where we're heading. The venue is a century old historic cottage that has a death grip on old school Miami charm, nestled within the heart of South Miami. The tree lined outdoor seating is a rare treat these days for a bar, and it's a great area to catch up with friends, particularly on their less busy nights. After taking advantage of their banging drink specials, be prepared to dance your pants off with their curated mix of weekly entertainment.

I tried my friends drink and it was too strong. Don't get me wrong I enjoy a strong drink but a lemon drop martini should taste sweeter than how it was made here. The service was good. Not too many people were there.

Everything was phenomenal, and our server, Catty, was wonderful. The crudo, croquettes, and beef tartare were absolute standouts--wow. The porterhouse was cooked to perfection, and every single side was incredible. You have to try the French onion mashed potatoes and the Brussels sprouts. We somehow still made room for dessert, and it was amazing too, even though we were sooo full. We had plenty of leftovers to take home! From the food to the service, everything was exceptional. Definitely Michelin-worthy in my opinion. Can't wait to come back!

Food- 4 Service- 1…read more Atmosphere- 5 My friends and I came here for lunch. We decided to try the Miami Spice menu. We had a reservation for 1pm. We were sat immediately and they had a printed sign with our name on it on our table. That was a nice touch. The service was VERY slow! We waited at least 10 minutes before the waiter (Danny/Daniel) ever came over to offer us water. Another 20 minutes later and we still hadn't ordered our food. My friend's iced tea still hadn't arrived. I had to go to the hostess stand and tell them that we'd been there for half an hour and hadn't even ordered yet. We never even saw our waiter during that time. Eventually a manager came over and took our order. I ordered the Hamachi Crudo as my appetizer and the salmon as my entree, and the blueberry lemon cheesecake for my dessert. My friend ordered the same thing, except the cookie as her dessert. My other friend ordered the Cesar salad as her appetizer and the Beauty chicken sando as her entree. The Hamachi was absolutely delicious (but incredibly small). The Cesar salad was HUGE! It was almost 2:30 by the time we got our entrees (1.5 hours after arriving). Our salmons were barely warm, meaning that they had been ready for a while, but they had been left sitting in the kitchen. We had arrived pretty hungry, and since our appetizer was only 3-4 bites, and it'd already been an hour and a half, we weren't about to send our food back to be heated up. The salmon, although not hot, was good. I liked the sauce it came in. It was a little over cooked on the outside. But, overall and well made, tasty dish. My friend liked her chicken sandwich. It came with about 2-4 big "fries". Upon using the ladies room, I discovered that the hand dryer was not working. It was 3pm (2 hours later) when we received our desserts. We had to add more time to the parking meter. The waiter informed us that he couldn't offer us any coffee as the machine was being serviced. The restaurant looks nice. The chairs are comfortable. It's nicely decorated. The music was great- mostly 80's music. All in all, we were pretty disappointed in our experience. As a Michelin Guide restaurant, we expected more. Better/faster service, for sure! A working coffee machine. Hot food. I'm glad I came for Miami Spice. I probably won't be returning. If I do return I'll ask for a different waiter.
