1910 Restaurant & Bar Miami Lakes

4.2(38 reviews)

After a full day of work, the last thing I wanted to do was drive across Miami in search of dinner…read more Fortunately, Miami Lakes has its own surprises. One of them is 1910 Restaurant & Bar, a Spanish-inspired restaurant that blends premium steaks, seafood, and a little theatrical flair without losing sight of flavor. The meal opened with an order of Cheese Balls, crisp golden spheres that reminded me of pão de queijo, except they skipped most of the bread and focused almost entirely on the cheese. The exterior shattered pleasantly, giving way to a molten, creamy center. Paired with a pineapple sauce, each bite balanced sweet and salty in exactly the right proportions. My wife ordered the Australian Wagyu Flap Sirloin, a 12-ounce cut grilled over charcoal and served with house-made chimichurri. It was everything you hope Wagyu will be, deeply beefy, wonderfully tender, and rich without becoming overwhelming. The chimichurri added brightness without stealing the spotlight. Then came the dish that first caught my attention. The La Reina de la Casa, or "Queen of the House." At first glance, it almost feels designed for social media, a cheese pizza crowned with an enormous grilled octopus. I would be lying if I said that presentation didn't influence my order. Fortunately, this wasn't style over substance. The pizza itself stood on its own with a crisp crust and generous layer of bubbling cheese. The octopus, however, was the reason to order it. It was expertly grilled, tender without a hint of chewiness, and seasoned with a spice blend the server politely described as the chef's secret. Whatever was in that seasoning deserved to remain a secret, because it transformed an already well-cooked octopus into something memorable. Dessert brought things back to the classics with a crème brûlée. The sugar crust cracked cleanly beneath the spoon, revealing a silky vanilla custard underneath. Simple, elegant, and exactly the ending the meal needed. 1910 could have leaned heavily on flashy presentations and premium ingredients. Instead, it paired both with thoughtful execution. That's a far more difficult trick to pull off. Some restaurants earn attention because they're photogenic. The best ones earn repeat visits because the food is every bit as impressive as the photos.

I found them on TikTok and decided to stop by today and I'm glad I did. When I saw the ad on TT I told myself that the quality was gonna be subpar and boy was I wrong. Perfectly cooked juice-oozing filet wrapped in bacon with chimichurri on the side. The moros(rice and beans) was also a pleasant surprise. I believe they use basmati rice which is different than most restaurants. Crunchy tostones made in house too, not the frozen stuff thank God. And the portions? I couldn't eat it all so there's that. The joint is nicely decorated and it has a full bar as well as a good wine selection. The service was exceptional and even the manager checks on the table periodically so kudos for that too. An 18% gratuity is already included but well deserved nevertheless.

The place was empty at that time, the waitress gave us a small table, table for 2, and the place was empty. We ask to be moved to a different one. She replied the place is full and we need each table for the right amount of people. 5 minutes went by and a party of 3 was given a table next to us, and that table is for 4. The irony is, we did ask the same waitress( it seems like she is a trainee) to seat us at that table and she refused and she refused to put an additional chair for us to use to put my wife and my mother bag, since the table was very small for a party of 3. And I will ask the owner to use cameras and be the judge your self. We were there to have fun, to see the zafiros band and of course to eat good food and have nice drinks. The food took for ever to arrive and we had the wrong croketas. And God is our witness the food was 0/10 in favor and on a top of that was burned. They all taste the same. We waited about 50 minutes trying to get the waitress attention to order the main dish and another drink. And I had to go to the bar and get the drink my self and I exchanged few words with two ladies seated at the bar thinking one of them was the owner( use your cameras to validate my story please). We decide to leave the disastrous place. I asked to have the bill at 10:05 and the bill was handed to me at 10:30 and I have to go to the front to pay and the waitress couldn't do it and called the cook to came out of the kitchen to collect the bull( Mr owner once again use your cameras to validate my story). When I was about to leave the place, at 10:36 that's when the show was about to start. And my understanding the show is suppose to start at 09:00. Mr owner I suggest that you really work on time management, improve the service( because your service is a disaster) and please improve the quality of the food. Our experience at your place was a pure disaster , the worst ever I have seen. And trust me, we really tried to have patience and consideration with the trainee waitress.
