    Lamb Lollipops
    Christopher B.

    This is one of those club/lounge/restaurants located on the Miami River that allows the millionaires to park their yachts and come on expecting a party. The party aspect certainly does not disappoint at this spot. From the moment you walk in feel the red carpet feeling of luxuriousness and wealth. The main dining room has multiple couches and tables for bottle service and smaller tables for smaller groups to dine. There is a main bar in the center with a DJ booth directly above it. The interior is absolutely breathtaking and decorated just wonderfully! What unfortunately lowers my rating is the service. It's not very good at all. Now, I understand that you don't go to these places for the service but for the atmosphere, but I feel as though it isn't that difficult to be able to put a little more effort in as a bartender to smile and be kind and for a server to be speedy and more efficient. The bartenders are very robotic and not very approachable. It's difficult to hear inside because of the music but the waitress we had could have done a better job at checking back with us more often and making sure we were happy with our food and drink orders. The food was not bad at all either, but the portions were a bit small. The lobster roll was split in two for sharing but it was so small it could be eating in about two bites. The lamb lollipops were flavorful but not served hot but more warm/cool. The orange sauce absolutely made that dish taste so much better. The drinks were fantastic. While the bartenders couldn't look to be happy to save their lives, they know how to make some damn good drinks. My recommendations would be the Moroccan Margarita and the Lebanese Limonata. They were garnished beautifully and served in luxurious glassware. The hostesses were beautiful and the friendly and yes, they do require reservations with a $50 charge for each guest in case of no shows. There is a valet across the street for $40 and there is a mandatory 22% charge for service on each check. The bathrooms are small and could be improved immensely. The music was fantastic despite how loud it was that evening. Like I stated earlier, a great club atmosphere if you are willing to spend. My personal opinion: pre-game, go just for drinks, and dance the night away.

    I had such an amazing night celebrating my cousin's birthday! We arrived about 30 minutes past our reservation time, so our table had been given away. Thankfully, the staff was still able to accommodate us after about a 30-minute wait, and we were seated around 11 p.m., right when the party was in full swing. The energy was incredible! The DJ kept the crowd hyped, and the dining room was full of ambiance. Belly dancers moved gracefully between tables, and every time a bottle was purchased, the staff celebrated with music, lights, and cheers. There were flashing lights, sirens, smoke effects, and guests dancing at their tables. The staff encouraged everyone to join in, even handing out lights and tambourines to get the crowd engaged. Despite the lively atmosphere, the servers still managed to provide great service. The food was delicious! We shared several appetizers, including the hummus platter, shrimp lollipops, and dumplings. For my entrée, I had the seafood pasta, which was an excellent choice. The drinks were okay, though definitely on the pricey side. My only critique would be the restrooms, they're trailers, which doesn't quite match the luxury vibe of the venue. While they were nicely decorated, they could be upgraded. Overall, I highly recommend this place for a celebration or a fun night out with friends. The energy, entertainment, and food make it an unforgettable experience!

    I'll be honest, I walked into Habibi Miami fully prepared to be underwhelmed. With so much hype around new spots these days, I've been burned more times than I'd like to admit with overpriced, mediocre food and subpar service. But this place delivered. First off, let's talk decor: it's completely over-the-top in the best way possible. Vibrant colors, incredible lighting, attention to every detail , every corner of the restaurant feels like it was curated for the perfect Instagram moment. It's definitely a full-on club restaurant vibe, with the energy to match, dancers performing throughout the night, shows happening right at your table, and music that keeps the party going without being overwhelming. Now the cocktails: let me just say, as a self-proclaimed home mixologist who takes pride in crafting well-balanced, creative drinks at home, I'm usually a tough critic when it comes to restaurant cocktails. But these were next-level. Inventive, perfectly balanced, beautifully presented, every single one felt like a mini experience in itself (and i tried almost all of them). Honestly, some of the best cocktails I've had out in a while. Favorite cocktail was Marrakesh, which is a riff on a tiki drink. And the zebra love came in a close second with a very floral Rosy vibe. The food? Absolutely incredible. Every dish we tried was packed with flavor, perfectly cooked, and had some really fun, unexpected combinations. Starters included lobster rolls, which were so buttery and delicious, we had the Seabass carpaccio, which was so fresh and the Wagyu dumplings, which were OK for a meal. We shared the steak and the couscous. Couscous was by far my favorite. So savory and interesting in flavor Now for the one downside: the bathrooms are definitely a trailer-style situation, but even that was done with an elevated touch and creative décor. Only in Miami can you turn a porta-potty setup into a photo op. also the desserts were not my favorite. But maybe we made the wrong selection. We had the baklava which was not bad and the goats milk, fig ice cream, which we really did not like. Yes, it's a little pricey, but honestly, for a celebration, date night, or special occasion, I think it's 100% worth it. They also have hookah options if you want to hang out and party longer, but since I went on a Sunday, I went home fully satisfied after dinner.

    Service was ehhh Atmosphere is great dinner party vibes Classy bougie place Food is good It's not a hip hop vibe you will be bored If you love house beats you will like this place After having booking minimum spend of $3500 over the phone for everything When the bill came they said it had to be $3500 in liquor . Also when I purchase the bottle of clase azul they served shots and every shot had particles in it . It looked like drugs I called management they said it was wood that probably fell on the ice they didn't comp absolutely anything then had the audacity that I had to spend $3500 more in liquor . A joke I wouldn't go to spend my money

    Great location on the river. Beautiful decor and ambiance. Nice to sit at the bar looking out onto to river. I didn't see any seating outside which would have been nice to have. Nice selection of Mediterranean cuisine, wines and drinks. Staff was very attentive. Just as a word of caution valet parking is $40

    Llan was our server and we had an amazing experience, everything was perfection. The service was top tier best in miami. They pay attention to the tiniest details of service. The atmosphere is a vibe and has beautiful lights, great fitting music. Will definitely come back and recommend.

    This was the damage

    Came here for my birthday dinner and had a great time! The food was really good, and the atmosphere was amazing -- from the performances to the service, everything was on point. Food was a solid 10/10. They also do a complimentary birthday dessert and celebration, which was a nice touch. Just a heads up: hookah is $200, and there's a 2-hour table limit.

    I had the worst dining experience at Habibi. The only reason I'm not giving this place a one star is because of the manager, who genuinely tried his hardest to make our experience better. Despite his efforts, I would never return. We had a reservation on a Saturday night. As we were about to enter the restaurant, the security guards refused to let us in because one of our friends didn't meet their "dress code." He was wearing a sweater with jeans and sneakers--nothing offensive or overly casual--but apparently, this wasn't acceptable. After 10 minutes of back and forth with them, our friend decided to leave, telling us to enjoy dinner without him. In hindsight, we should have taken this as a sign to leave too. When we checked in with the hostesses, they told us to wait at the bar. Fifteen minutes passed, and then 25 more. When we asked for an update, they told us we were waiting for a table to clear. Another 20 minutes went by and at this point, we had waited over an hour for our reservation. When we pressed again, they admitted there were no tables available because the owner had shown up with his friends, leaving us without a spot. While waiting, we noticed people dressed far more casually than our friend, a girl in leggings and sneakers, and a man in drawstring sweatpants. Yet somehow, our friend in a nice sweater and sneakers wasn't allowed in? After another 30 minutes of waiting, we were fed up. The manager stepped in and did his best to accommodate us, eventually seating us at the bar. Unfortunately, things didn't improve much from there. The food was mediocre. The burgers were overly salty, but the salads and truffle cheese sticks were surprisingly good. However, we never received our entrées because the "show" started, and the kitchen seemed to stop altogether. The vibe is fun if you're into the typical Miami "pay for the scene, not the service or food" experience, but it's not for me. Between the ridiculous dress code, the mismanagement of reservations, and the lackluster food, this was easily one of the worst dining experiences I've ever had.

    My friend had a reservation for 10 people for her birthday, and we came in from out of town to celebrate. We arrived on time for our 10:00 reservation, but the table was not ready. The staff told us to wait at the bar, which was already completely packed. The bartender and several staff members were rude and seemed to judge people based on what they were wearing. With nowhere else to wait, we were basically stuck standing outside on the sidewalk. The whole experience was disappointing and unwelcoming -- definitely not what you expect when you make a reservation in advance.

    Come for the drinks and the vibes. The food I was not impressed by. I also went about 3 weeks it's been open. Entertainment is great and the place looks nice, but food and service was not my favorite here. The branzino was very dry, we couldn't eat it. Also had the prawn with cous cous & veggies which we're alright. The sea bass (raw) was delicious however!

    This restaurant definitely has a unique vibe and concept. Located in the heart of a busy Florida city, it offers a dual experience that aims to transport you to the vibrant streets of Marrakech. The décor and ambiance are immersive, and the chefs do a good job crafting an authentic Moroccan menu, rich with spices and traditional ingredients. The tagines and couscous dishes are flavorful, though not extraordinary--especially considering the high prices. That said, there are a few issues to be aware of: * Reservations: Do not book the 8:00 p.m. slot unless you're okay with being rushed. No matter how much you spend, they will ask you to leave by 10:00 p.m. On the flip side, if you book the 10:00 p.m. reservation, expect to wait--sometimes not being seated until after 11:00 p.m. * Atmosphere: It turns into the typical Miami "show" later in the night--think influencers, high heels, and a lot of table-hopping. If that's your scene and you show up late, you'll likely have fun. If not, adjust your expectations accordingly. * Valet Parking: The valet across the street is owned by the restaurant. They charge $40 and only accept cash or Zelle--no credit cards. Bottom line: You're paying for the scene and ambiance more than the food. Go late, bring cash, and know what you're signing up for.

    Before you elk into Habibi just know it will feel like stepping into a celebration of Middle Eastern hospitality warm lighting, aromas of spice, live belly dancers smoke in the air, and that wonderful hum of people sharing food together. That's what food should be about: not just eating, but gathering. Now, let's talk about these dishes. The mezze platter is where I'd always start. It's a beautiful spread of silky hummus, smoky baba ganoush, tangy labneh, and warm, pillowy bread fresh from the oven. You tear a piece of bread, drag it through that hummus, and omg the balance is beyond spot on nutty, creamy, with just the right hit of lemon. The grilled kebabs are a masterclass in simplicity done right . Perfectly seasoned, charred edges that give you that kiss of smoke, and meat that's tender and juicy. You can tell straight away that the marinade has been given time to really do its work. But the star for me? The lamb shank tagine. When that bad boy arrives at the table, the aroma alone is enough to stop any conversation. The lamb just falls away from the bone, slow-cooked with prunes, apricots, and a blend of spices that's layered and deep without being overpowering. You get sweetness, savoriness, warmth its comfort food at its absolute best. And don't skip dessert. Why would you do that? The baklava is crisp, golden, and dripping with just the right amount of honey sweet, but not cloying. Paired with a strong Turkish coffee, it's the perfect finish. At Habibi, every dish tells a story. It's not fussy, it's not overcomplicated--it's food that's cooked with heart and shared with joy. And for me, that's the highest compliment I can give.

    Food was fresh and quick. Service was good and attentive. Ambiance was amazing had live dancers going around. Gave a complimentary appetizer for Valentine's Day which is the ceviche.

    This was truly an experience! When we got access inside, we were greeted by such a nice woman. She…read moreintroduced herself and gave us information about the place. Showed us to the bar and got our seats wiped down. The kitchen wasn't serving hot food since we came after 10pm, so we opted for hummus which was soo good! Our drinks were great, and my bf got a cigar which was a great experience. The man who was in that area, was knowledgeable and helped him choose the right one. This is a great place for a group night out and I can't wait to come back with my friends! The ambiance is like you're in a different time, very different and I loved every minute of it!

We reserved the second floor lounge area, which was amazing. The drinks were great and the food was good. Obviously this is not a sitdown restaurant so don't come expecting a full-blown steak. But the pizza and the food options were definitely elevated bar foods. The service was amazing. Our bartender and weight staff were very helpful and kind. The best part is that you come in through a red phone booth. Once you make a reservation, they give you a phone number to dial in and then it opens! A total experience.
