Best service ever, Kayla is the greatest. Very good food also! The Mushroom Bolognese was fantastic!

Not many new restaurants open up & hit it out of the ballpark in a week's time w/their service, food & libations!!! Our server/bartender Illya was absolutely amazing! Patient, entertaining, charismatic with our whole group. And we were a rowdy bunch - classy but rowdy! We ordered almost every item on their late hour HH menu - HH at 10PM in the Grove!??!?!? It's been a long time since those days (Fat Tuesdays anyone)! But they had it in check! Bang bang Chicken bites give you an instant lip lift w/their sweet & VERY spicy glaze. So so good. The Roma Margherita Pizza w/Stracciatella was so crispy, warm & cheesy! Oh my word... And their Dragon Roll was a perfect bite to end the night. For my cocktail I had the White Lies which contained gin, bitters, vermouth & I added a shot of St. Germains. Everything about this spot screams potential! The hostesses were also so very sweet & engaging - I cannot wait to be back! read more

Restaurant is a very pretty place beautiful seating a nice view overlooking the Grand Ave., Bayshore McFarlane intersection. Fun to remember this was a gasoline station 45 years ago and they rented rollerskates on the ground floor with that in mind I wish they still had rollerskates rather than this restaurant Probably the worst cheeseburger I've had in years. The quality of the meat was somewhere between bland and a very bad veggie burger, but it was supposed to be a mix of Chuck and sirloin. I have never left a hamburger on my plate in my life and this was the first time. The truffle fries were great and we tried the waiters favorite, which was a. Crabcake of some sort and a I don't know what it was but both people that were at our table tonight said it was terrible "unfinishable" pretty much like my burger. The bar drink was OK but very weak. The waiter was very nice but this is definitely one of the worst food quality restaurants I've eaten in my life. What's worse is getting hit with a $17 parking charge for 90 minutes to patronize their own tenants is just vile. Miami lifetime resident I am done with places like this as well as the one that sits beneath it. read more

We celebrated Father's Day at Grand Public with my husband, dad, and father-in-law; a party of 11 including 3 kids. We were seated immediately, which was appreciated, but the table was too small for our group and we had to pull over an extra chair ourselves from a neighboring table. Shortly after being seated, water from the A/C began dripping on my head. When I brought it to the staff's attention, they offered to move us to another table, but with a group of 11 we preferred to stay put. I asked them if they would clean the area instead, which resolved the issue for the rest of our meal. What surprised me most was that, on Father's Day, not a single staff member acknowledged the fathers at our table. No "Happy Father's Day," no small gesture, nothing. It felt like a missed opportunity, especially on a holiday centered around celebrating dads. Another disappointment was discovering that only the brunch menu was being served. This was not disclosed when I made the reservation. Had I known, I would have booked an earlier time or chosen a different restaurant. To make matters worse, there was no kids' menu. With brunch items mostly over $20 and not particularly kid-friendly, feeding children became unnecessarily expensive. The value simply wasn't there. I ordered a turkey sandwich for $27 with no side included. It was dry, so I asked for additional aioli and was instead given a dijonnaise that clearly wasn't the same sauce as what was on the sandwich, and then charged $3 for it. We were also charged $2 for extra honey butter after the original portions served with the Parker rolls were removed from our table. The nickel-and-diming felt excessive. Pricing throughout the menu seemed inconsistent. A burger was $24 and included fries, while a $27 turkey sandwich came with nothing, and fries were an additional $7. As for the food, my family enjoyed their breakfast items, but nothing on the lunch portion of brunch stood out as exceptional except the Parker rolls, which were easily the highlight of the meal. The cocktails were enjoyable, particularly my Peacock Spritz and my husband's Spicy Watermelon margarita. Lastly, we waited about 10-15 minutes after our meal for our waiter to bring a dessert and coffee menu. He never came back and eventually I flagged him down and asked for the check, which is when I found out about the sauce costs. I paid and we walked down the street for dessert and coffee. Unfortunately, what was supposed to be a special Father's Day celebration left us disappointed. We chose this restaurant because we have seen great reviews, but it just wasn't a good experience for us. read more

Excellent brunch option! Kayla was the best server form start to finish. Bottomless Mimosa for $25 is worth it and you can pick from many different flavor options for juice - mango, passion fruit, orange or pineapple. Food - Parker roll is a great starter with the honey butter spread. Blueberry pancakes are fluffy and delicious. (Similar to Japanese pancakes); Steak and Eggs is worth the price for quality meat and its NY strip; smoked turkey and avocado club is huge portions and the burger is a solid choice. Highly recommend and entire staff was amazing. I will be back for Miami spice (there is a Miami spice brunch option) read more

This review is for their happy hour. They have two slots 3-6 and 10 to close. We came in for their Ferrero Rocher Espresso Martini and it was everything we thought it would be. And it's on the happy hour menu which is a win. We also tried the truffle fries which were super good and thickly cut. Our servers Erick and Julian were so attentive and fun. We had a blast. Can't wait to come back and try their regular menu and another martini. Of course. The restaurant itself is beautifully decorated with corner windows facing coconut grove. Very nice ambiance. read more

Grand Public - American Near Me - Miami, Florida

Love the area CocoWalk. Lots of places to choose from so glad I picked Grand Public. The dishes I chose were super delicious- tuna taco and the dragon roll. I honestly wanted more. But didn't want to over stuff myself. I would love to come back and have more though. The service was a little slow but nothing to really complain about. Just a note. Overall, a great experience. read more

I was very impressed with Grand Public. The restaurant is nice and spacious. The staff is proper and friendly. If you are wondering what to order. Definitely the bread buns. They are amazing 100/10. The tuna tartare was delicious as well. The steak and sushi are good. After appetizers and sushi there was an extreme gap of time before the main course of steak and pasta came. Other than that, I had a great experience. The drink menu looked delicious as well so I will definitely be coming back try. read more

Grand Public - She's spicy Margarita - American Near Me - Miami, Florida

Grand public was incredible for a night cap and delicious bites! The hostesses were a dynamic duo who welcomed us with great energy, enthusiasm and hospitality. The bar was full so we grabbed a table right across from it, ordered the entire late night happy hour bites and some cocktails. The Ferrero Rocher martini was decadent and the watermelon martini was excellent! This feedback was from my friends who drink. I had water. Now for the bites; the tiradito was AMAZING and my top pick. The pizza was a close second. The dragon roll was really good but slight heavy (for me) on the sauce. The fries were too thick and were sent back because they were undercooked and when they came back it was well cooked but still too thick. The bang bang chicken was not our favorite. The sauce was heavy and I would have preferred it to be a buffalo sauce instead. With that being said, you can't beat the prices and ambiance. The decor is bougie and bright. I loved it! The bathroom was clean and nice also. This is the spot and certainly a vibe. Check them out and enjoy! read more

What a gem of a restaurant!!! We were impressed by the amazing service and our waiter, Eric went above and beyond to make our experience memorable. The rolls that we ordered were the BEST we've ever had. They were so good that we ordered an extra order with our dessert. I ordered the lobster ravioli which really was delicious. Every bite was a delight. My husband ordered the steak and fries and it was also exquisite. The atmosphere was very nice and they had a DJ playing great music. We highly recommend this restaurant we we can't wait to return. read more

What a fantastic experience! The food was outstanding, the ambiance was beautiful, but what truly made this place unforgettable was the service. This is one of those restaurants I'll keep coming back to--whether it's with friends, for a business dinner, on a date, or just to stop by for an amazing drink and great food. The best part is the hospitality. You can genuinely tell that everyone wants to be there and is committed to providing exceptional service. A special thank you to Kayla and Brian for making our visit even more memorable. We can't wait to come back! read more

We had a great dining experience tonight at Grand Public. Alana took care of us - she was a joy to work with. Her recommendations, kindness and attention to detail made it all a very enjoyable experience. Mark with his wonderful sense of humor had our daughter laughing and smiling throughout. We definitely can't wait to go back. Oh, and the ribeye steak is definitely worth every penny, and so is the Grand Burger. Highly recommend both. Thanks, guys. Sebastian, Ivette & Nina read more

Grand Public - Best food ambiance and service!! - American Near Me - Miami, Florida

First let me tell you that the restaurant is beautiful. Light wood and open areas give it a nice vibe. Drinks and service was wonderful also. We were a party of 14 so yeah it was tough on the server but she was wonderful. Started with happy hour drinks and some happy hour food which was good. We all later ordered mostly hamburgers and sandwiches which everyone like. Some of us ordered rigatoni meatball pasta which was liked and others ordered the lemon fettuccine. I was disappointed with the lemon fettuccine pasta. It was dry and had no lemon flavor. The other person that ordered it also said the same thing. I believe the food needs to be tighten up a bit to make this restaurant a truly great place. read more

Fabulous! Thank you, Ilene, Matty , Camill, Nicole and the entire staff so much for a delicious intro to Grand Public!

Grand Public - The special touches do not go unnoticed! Violet spritz à la Coconut Grove!! - American Near Me - Miami, Florida

Wanted to love this spot. But, no. Tuna stack appetizer was tasteless and salty. Caesar salad drenched in a dressing that just tasted like lemon. A fly in my wine. The meatballs with rigatoni had a nice smoky flavor and were good. Too many better places to dine. The space is beautiful though. Take a pass. read more

I had a wonderful birthday dinner here with my family. All four of us loved our food, the cocktails were on point, and the service was excellent. I wish I'd had the presence of mind to remember our server's name. He was great, and especially patient with my stepdad who is older and has trouble hearing. Thanks for a great dinner. Oh and I almost forgot we had the best table! It was in front of the this huge window looking down over the busy intersection in front of cocowalk. They did an excellent job of maintaining the quiet and intimacy of a nice restaurant while having this vibrant and entertaining view. I'll be back next time I'm in town! read more

I went there with a friend today for their new brunch. Do not sleep on this brunch. The ingredients were fresh. The food was made to order. We had the blueberry pancakes and a side of steak. Yes an actual side of steak. We kept trying to figure out how they made those thick fluffy pancakes cooked all the way through the middle but still have like a nice crunch on the outside. It was so delicious. We shared it and we each got a latte. The latte art is a work in progress apparently. But the latte was delicious The restaurant is absolutely gorgeous. It's kind of a modern Scandinavian style. It is more of a grown-up place. It's not your typical boozy Miami brunch that's really loud. We loved the service. Everything about it was great. If I had to give something negative, I would say the toilet paper in the bathroom is cheap. That's literally the only negative thing I could say about the entire experience. read more

We're staying in Coconut Grove within walking distance of CocoWalk, and tonight we decided to try out the newly opened Grand Public Kitchen and Bar for dinner. In short, it was AMAZING! Never have I ever had such a combination of exceptionally good food and outstanding service. Our server Nicolas was so kind, attentive and friendly, and one of the managers, Victoria stopped by to make sure we had a nice dinner and was genuinely interested in our feedback. It was like meeting new friends! Of course it was easy to rave about how delicious my half grilled chicken was as well as my husband's lobster ravioli. I could eat here every day! I can't say enough good things about this restaurant, it'll definitely be our go to place whenever we're in Coconut Grove. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed! read more

I came here with a group of girls for the first time on a Friday evening. It was supposed to be our first stop of the night and we loved it so much we stayed the entire night. The food was amazing and the cocktails are great. Fantastic HH! AND a late night HH (loved that). The dragon roll was absolutely fire and all the staff was incredible. I have literally never felt more taken care of in my life. Everyone was checking on us and super attentive to our table. Nile was a manager there that was absolutely awesome. Sophia was one of our servers and was super great too. Nile mentioned that a brunch was coming soon! Will definitely choose this spot for brunch for my birthday in the summer! Such great vibes and music! Love this place! read more
