Double Luck was recently placed on Infatuations top 25 best restaurants in Miami. For that reason I…read morehave to give my honest review as I feel like that deserves merit. Merit that I do not think Double Luck deserves just yet. My honest review is more like 3.5 stars. The atmosphere and service were great, particularly I can say that the servers had a great attention to detail with all the tables. It felt like they came at all the right times and had a keen on instantly picking up trash from a table or dirty plates that made us feel great and well taken care of. Now onto the food, we started off with crab raccoons, and the say the least it was pretty underwhelming, and not as expected. The filling had a strong almost like cheese, filled paste, very little crab, taste, and feel. We then ordered the eardrop salad with cucumber, and I would like to say this was probably the best meal of the night and it was a salad very refreshing light great textures, a true delight. We then proceeded to order the crab fried rice along with the Hennessy chicken. The crab fried rice was good as you would expect. It's fried rice and nothing special. Nothing on this world could probably get this anywhere and have the same taste in fuel. Good size was the portion it's completely shareable with one other person which was honestly great. The Hennessy chicken was just how you would expect it like walking into a more upscale panda express. Overall, that's just how it felt like we were at a more elevated. Upscale Chinese restaurant did not really feel too traditionally Chinese just maybe a place that wants to look sexy for the Instagram photos. To be put on a top 25 restaurant in Miami with the great places and and who is I think you need to really elevate your game and stand out when it comes to the food and not just the gimmicks. I have a true soft spot for the hospitality industry so I would never give a restaurant three stars as I know how hard it is to do good and great work so I hope double luck the best and that they could truly elevate their game and come with more unique dishes.

Epic doesn't even begin to describe this sandwich…read more I had been trying to get my hands on these sandos for the longest time, and I'm so glad I finally made it. The Chicken Katsu was delicious, but the real mind-blowing bite? The Gua Gua--a dreamy combo of creamy burrata, stracciatella, and savory mortadella, all tied together with their next-level guajillo guayaba sauce. For some reason, it reminded me of a banh mi--fresh, balanced, and absolutely life-changing. One bite in, and I knew I'd be chasing these sandwiches wherever they pop up next. Because after all, they're a pop-up, and for now, you can find them at ToBeDetermined on Sundays. - PollitoPecks

Food (1-10) 10 the best Appetizers - Honey Biscuits (10) - Hot, fluffy, and the strawberry preserve made me have a flashback moment to my Grandma's house. 1) Chicken & Waffles (9) - Hot, crispy, & moist especially the breast. Seasoned well enough but the honey hot sauce added that extra kick. Waffles were fine and the watermelon cubes did not work for me. I observed several other people's plates, and most of them did not eat them. 2.) Braised Short Ribs (9) - My wife's favorite. "Lord have mercy." The meat was so tender, seasoned and the mashed potatoes underneath were spot on. Great dish 3) Salmon - (8) - Good, a family member main course. They were raving about it. 4) Brussels sprouts & Fried Okra (10) - Both were in a small cast-iron skillet. If you're from down south you know what that means. Hot, crispy, and seasoned to perfection.

We…read moremade a reservation ahead of time for Saturday lunch, and the experience exceeded our expectations. Chris was our waiter, and he was amazing and thoughtful throughout the meal. He even adjusted the umbrella to keep us shaded and brought over a small table for me to place my bag, which was such a nice touch. He recommended some of their most popular dishes, so we ordered the tempura shrimp tacos, freshly shucked oysters, tuna rainbow salad, and a piña colada served in their signature coconut. The food arrived quickly and looked vibrant. Chris even helped plate everything beautifully so I could take content photos. The spread was colorful, fresh, and tasted just as amazing as it looked. Nikki Beach was such a vibe with plenty of cute photo spots throughout the property. You can also rent a cabana or lounge bed if you're looking to relax or party by the beach. Overall, it was a 10/10 experience for us. It had the perfect Miami vibe, and we absolutely loved it!

Our server didn't introduce herself -- instead, she immediately asked to hold my ID and card staring at it for along extended time, which felt very uncomfortable, especially as someone traveling. She then barely checked on us the rest of the time, and we had to rely on other staff just to get water while sitting in the heat with limited shade. When it was time to pay, when I asked for my ID back she told me I wouldn't get my ID back until after payment. We paid in cash, and she still didn't return it -- I had to ask another employee to track it down. The food and drinks were good, but the service was poor and unwelcoming, especially for a $300 bill. I was also disappointed that I was not able to even order my cousin a birthday desert to celebrate. As four Black women, the overall experience felt uncomfortable and off-putting. I wouldn't return.

The sauce to dip in was really good. As for the sides, I liked them! Nothing was mind blowing but they were good. My favorite were the grilled tomatoes with spinach and cheese.

To be fair, service was pretty slow at first--we didn't even have menus for a while. The restaurant had a full buyout event earlier and seemed to be playing catch-up.

Every dish was absolutely delicious and felt elevated and luxurious. Our favorites were the spicy tuna crispy rice, lamb chops, and beetroot maki. This place absolutely lives up to the hype and is somewhere I'll definitely return to. After dinner, the downstairs space transformed into a lounge/club atmosphere. It was packed, the energy was amazing, and it ended up being such a fun spot for dancing and drinks. Highly recommend!
