This is my third visit to Phuc Yea and I've always had an amazing meal. My favorite must order item is their Py Noodles. They are garlicky and cheesy and simply addicting. The lemongrass chicken is also a great dish. On my last visit I ordered the Green Papaya Salad and this will now be added to must order list of items to have on my next visit. Wow, it is an explosion of flavors. It is simply delicious. For dessert I tried the chocolate bread pudding with condensed milk which is served in a hot skillet and it is chocolaty goodness. Not only do they have great good, but their ambiance and music gives the restaurant a great vibe. Definitely Phuc Yeah is on my faves list of restaurants. read more

You would think this place is always empty, as there is usually no one in the tables facing Biscayne boulevard. The dining room is actually tucked away in the back of the building, with an expansive bar and several tables. Decor is modern and hip, with Vietnamese accents, but acoustics are horrible, making it very hard to have a conversation without yelling at each other. Food is passable. The green papaya salad was tasty, but a little too acidic. The fried fish salad was sad, with almost no vegetables and fish that was mostly batter fried in old frying oil. The fried tofu was the highlight of the night, crispy and interestingly spiced. Don't order steamed rice, it tastes funky and has an unpleasant texture. Service is okay. I didn't understand the waitress' reluctance in telling us the market price for the sea food items. Overall an unmemorable experience. Don't know if I would be going back. read more

The million dollar rice is to die for. I love love it. It's so tasty and fresh. The wings are pretty tasty too. Cool place to take a date and they have great service as well. read more

Saw the other bad reviews and thought it was a hit/miss. And still wanted to give it a try. Sadly the food wasn't good, poor service (we left most of our food uneaten and the waiter didn't care), very noisy, and the cherry on the top is that it was pricy. read more

Went with a group of friends and we all absolutely loved the food and service. Great place to hang out and chill and stuff your face!! read more

This place has been on my radar for a while but for one reason or another I was not able to try it until now. Finally we made it last Saturday around 6.00 pm . We went to the front of the building and waited for like 10 minute thinking it was still closed but just then some one showed up and told us the entrance was at the back of the building by the parking. A sign telling you used the back door will be very nice. Also we struggled a bit finding a parking space at the street and then we learned the restaurant has his own parking on the back - again no sign letting you know it was parking for the restaurant. I love the space. It is much bigger thanwhat I expected and the decor and ambience were industrial style and nice. The drink menu is mostly classic cocktails with some additional upscale ingredients that sound very attractive on the menu but dob't add much in flavor. The cocktails were very good and well executed but they taste like the classics, so do not get distracted by the florishes. The food was good, everything was very tasty, but again the wow factor was not there. The octopus was the standout dish that we tried. The plates were very well presented with decent portion sizes. The service was great , we sat at the bar, and the bartender was attentive to our needs. The food and drinks always came fast even though the restaurant was getting busier. All and all I had a good time, and yes I recommend the place. It is a nice to try, just keep you expectations realistic to enyoy it more. read more

Phuc Yea - Vietnamese Near Me - Miami, Florida

Brunch here was scrumptious and boozy! They have a "Bottomless Boozy Brunch" which is $15 for unlimited mimosas, rosé, or white wine coolers, and you don't have to pick just one, you can try all 3 and keep rotating them if you like. Their mimosas were really good, made with guava and guanabana. They also offer other drinks for $12, but for $2 more, I'll take the bottomless!! *Federal Biskit - while this biscuit was tasty, I wish it would have been served with honey or jam because it was quite dense. *Pig Wings n Waffles - LOVED the wings, didn't like the waffles. meh *Pork Bao - They really know how to make some delicious pork! This was very good! *Softshell Crab Po' Boy - get it! It was heavenly!! *Coffee Banana Pancakes - These were alright. Nothing to write about really. Would I come back? Heck Yea! ;) read more

Shame on me for taking so long to return to a restaurant I've been to before and know I love. I won't make that mistake again. If you haven't been, Miami Spice or not, get to it. The Spice menu at Phuc Yea works a little differently than others. Ultimately, it's a five-course menu highlighting some of their best dishes and some newer additions. The second course (P.Y. Noddles: make them crabby for a $5 supplement) and a chef's choice dessert are the only preselected items. What I tried: Pho Spiced Short Rib Scallop Tartare Crispy Fish Onion Salad P.Y. Noodles (Crabby) Chili Mangoes & Cukes Veggie Curry Veggie Fried Rice Churros Guava & Cheese Panna Cotta (not on the spice menu) Papaya Salad (not on the Spice menu) Cast Iron Lemongrass Chicken HIT: More like doing it, and doing it, and doing it well. I'll settle on the Cast Iron Lemongrass Chicken and the Pho Spiced Short Rib ($15 supplement) as the standout dishes. I loved the chicken's layered flavors: citrusy with equal parts sweet and heat for a fun finish. The short rib (regularly $29 on the main menu), arrived plated simply on a large wooden tray, accompanied by a summer watermelon salad. I pushed the herbs covering the meat aside, for the big reveal. Oh my, it looked divine and smelled positively intoxicating. Arriving at the very end of dinner after way too many courses, I gluttonously attempted to soldier through it. The caramelized meat easily fell off the bone and surprised me with its flavor profile. Taking one look around the room, I noticed I wasn't the only one in a trance by this dish. It almost brought me to tears. Really. What a night! MISS: Không Có Gì. Is that how you say it? #NothingbutaGThang As I mentioned in my original review, Phuc Yea's got soul. Prepare to swag-dine and sway to the baddest of the baddest mix of 90s hip-hop setting the vibe: definitely, the place to be. read more

Fusion Vietnamese food. Owner is from Peru. Parents from Vietnam. Bill total automatically added 20% tip to check, waiter did not forewarn so gave double tip. Was told market price for rib was $48. Got charged $65 for rib after asking for breakout of check receipt. Very sneaky. read more

First things first.. the short rib pho is AMAZING. Must try. Wow. Unfortunately, it's $60 a bowl. Fortunately, you can share it with 3 people, no problem! Ok lol, the wagyu fried rice was tasty but lacking a bit of flavor. Our server was very sweet but seemed possibly a little new so he didn't know the answers to all of our questions. This restaurant's style is intended for sharing amongst the table. I would definitely come back for that pho alone.. just know you'll be spending some money here. The dumplings were $17 and was a very small dish. read more

Phuc Yea - Vietnamese coffee - Vietnamese Near Me - Miami, Florida

Came here for a birthday dinner with family. Excellent food, great experience. We had a private room to enjoy among ourselves. Because we had a private room, we were able to enjoy a bit more dedicated service. Our server was beyond attentive and anticipated out every need. The alcoholic beverages here are quite strong. Very nice flavors and great choices of premium liquors. We enjoyed Mai-Tais, daiquiris, Moscow Mules, champagne etc. A favorite of the night was something called the LadyBoy (terrible name, awesome concoction!)! There was not one complaint about a drink, all the specialty drinks we're nicely prepared with the perfect amount of sugar and spice! Food-Venture We started with Bao buns, steamy hot buns packed with so much flavor! It literally two to three bites and done and yet they had so much flavor! From the pickled veggies to the fresh cilantro to the fresh fish. We had soft shell crab and cod Bao Buns. Excellent!! We ordered the whole snapper, the seafood boil, the scallops, the PY garlic noodles, the salt and pepper tiger prawns, octopus, spicy fried rice ... ... You name it, we ordered it! There was not one complaint at our table . Everyone enjoyed each and every bite. Note that some items were so good that we doubled our orders!!! This place would get 5 stars however we did believe that some of the prices were a bit too much for these 79th St. Miami Streets. We're not one to complain and we love great quality food however, some of these newer restaurants are raising their prices by $2, $3, and up to $5 per entree when not necessary. We found that many of the dishes were quite overpriced and one dish (Snapper) was a big surprise when we received the bill! Market Price my ASS!! Other than that great service, amazing food. I would recommend others to experience the palate journey however, be very wary of the prices and some of the sizes of the dishes. read more

I'd heard a lot of good things here on yelp and a couple of local food blogs (foodforthought and thewhetpalette), and thought I'd check it out for Miami Spice, when I'm not overwhelmed by all the choice on the menu (though the spice menu has quite a bit of choice also). I'm not a huge fan of restaurant names I can't say out loud in front of my kids, so I guess this place is meant to be more for adults (though on my Friday 7pm visit, there were several tables with toddlers, and given we were seated next to a bar, that seemed as appropriate as bringing a kid to a 10pm horror movie). Parking was free on a side street one block north of the restaurant. It's not a great part of town, so if you're more reasonable than I, you'll likely avail yourself of the $5 valet (which should really just be self-park - do you need someone to park your car 20 feet away from where you drop off?). The Miami Spice menu had changed many times during the 2 month promotion (extended to 3 months this year after hurricane Irma), and it was important to check the restaurant's website to see what rotating options hit the menu the week of my visit. From the 4 appetizer options, we chose the EDAMAME HUMMUS (which looked great with towering fried 'chips') and the BAY SCALLOP CRUDO, which had a kick, but given how dark the restaurant is, I couldn't really see how much scallop it had. We paired these dishes with a glass of rose, and I'd recommend sticking to cocktails, because wines did not pair well with the spice in the dishes at all. For the mains we went with COCA COLA DUCK (which was tasty) and CAJUN PRAWNS WOK (head-on shrimp, and I did not enjoy this one at all - not just the labor to get to the meat, but also the gritty taste of the cajun seasoning). Again we had a wine pairing, this time a red pinot noir, and again I don't recommend the wine list: bad wine, and bad pairing with the food. Some of the most interesting tastes of the night were the sides: the PY NOODLES were very good, and the VEGGIE FRIED RICE was solid (though not my choice). The CHILI MANGOES AND CUKES would have been my second choice. All of the above courses rotate weekly during Miami Spice with much of the rest of the menu, but the dessert was the same throughout: CHURROS with some kind of ice cream and chocolate sauce. It was ok, but didn't really highlight the viet-cajun theme of the place, and the sauce tasted like hershey's out of a squeeze bottle. Food-wise everything was pretty good, but not many "wows" (and the prawns were far from a wow), which makes it a 4. But ambiance takes it down to 3: though there was lots of seating near the entrance that was quiet and spacious, on my visit everyone was seated in the crowded, loud and VERY dark bar/lounge area. Maybe I could have requested to be at the front, and if I return that's what I'd do. For HAPPY HOUR though, I'd give the place a 4.5: they have some very nice cocktails for $6, and some rolls for half price. I forgot to ask about oysters, which are also half-off MP (so I don't really know what they cost). It's popular though, so be warned or arrive early. The bar atmosphere, while a minus for the dining experience, is appropriate to a happy hour. read more

Phuc Yea - Hummus; rice and noodles; churros and the bill - Vietnamese Near Me - Miami, Florida

***Before getting into my review, I'm none too happy with the fact that there's a required 20% service charge on top of the waiter's tip*** However, I don't want this to affect providing my review, see which are two separate things which can, if grouped together, could've affected my overall review. While I have a few negative comments, it's nothing that can't be remedied by the owner. The bests were the octopus starter which was in a bed of semi creamed garbanzos. It was so flavorful and perfectly textured. I would've loved having double the portion for my dinner. I also loved the Pho. I didn't however care for the scallop crudo appetizer as it seemed a bit thick and has zero flavor -though it was drizzled with soy or something. I also could rug one without the veggie fried rice I received in error as I requested the Cajun rice loaded with different meats. This veg rice lacked flavor and was just completely lack luster. The area we were sat was nicely tucked away and private. I'd recommend that they reduce the music volume as it obscenely loud, making it hard to communicate. Either way, I'd definitely return to try the other dishes like the short rib and chicken (as they were all out of chicken-that's crazy). read more

Been here a couple times to dine in and we liked the food. Today we ordered take out and the food quality was still pretty good. Actually felt better eating at home since the ambience there can be quite loud, although the crispy Imperial Rolls lost their crisp on the journey. Reason for the two stars is that an item was missing and the response to the problem was unsatisfactory. Apparently the website menu is not updated. Jasmine rice is no longer included with the Veggie Curry, although it says so on the menu. The person on the phone did not offer any type of solution or compensation. Unfortunately the food here isn't amazing enough to deal with this kind of service, so not sure if we will return. read more

The exterior of Phuc Yea is really unassuming. Step in and you'll find a very eclectic but nice decor containing pieces reflective of Asian culture from red lanterns to Buddha but also walls filled with flower and colorful female portraits. I had a few nibbles from the restaurant. Enjoyed their happy hour oysters for $1 each. Also enjoyed the roasted pork bao buns which had a hint of spice given the jalapeno Sriracha sauce, a pair for $11. It did seem a bit blocky though. It could have benefited from being cut in half. The rice crackers with edamame hummus was crispy and flavorful.  I would come back based on other tasty looking dishes that came out that night. I hear their Sunday brunch is also really good. read more

So disappointed with this place. Went to Chinese new year for my birthday. The staff was not all that. Once girl was just rude. The set up did not flow at all... by the time you got the food and went up the stairs it was cold. The food itself was not good just not what I was hoping for at all. Anyways we bought our tickets on eventbrite and we sat at a table for four and ordered a bottle of wine. Well when we got the bill they racked on a 20% tip!!! To our ticket prices and the bottlw of wine and addedd tax which we had already paid on the tickets. The waiter just brought us water and opened our bottle of wine and now double tax! Manager was no where to be seen, we were told we would get a refund but nothing yet and no reply to our email. Not what I expected for my birthday. I would like to try it for a redgular dinner but this even was a disaster. read more

The old adage that fusion is "confusion" is dead. Phuc Yea's conscious approach shows you that when new fusion is done right, using local produce, "exotic" flavors and familiar points of reference, something innovative, exciting and delicious comes out. Although we lament the shortage of "authentic" Asian restaurants in the city, Phuc Yea moves us past that as if by saying, "you've just come back from Asia and had your fill with the real thing, now let's have some fun." Starting with the cocktails, they don't refer to the old orientalist standbys like the "suzy wong," but they dare to dream of something new, labeling their creations with names out of Urban Dictionary like, "basic b*tch." This fragrant aperitif was a nice way to wind down on a Friday evening and start a great catch up with good friends over delectable, shareable plates. One friend ordered the masitas de puerco dish which was a clever version of the Cuban deep fried pork chunks but infused with the tangy-sweet flavors of Southeast Asia. We also tried the edamame hummus which was such a deliciously simple idea, we instantly added it to our queue of dishes we'd like to try to replicate at home. The veggie curry stew was not only a hit with the entire table, but also showed the increasing trend where the plant-based dish more and more often trumps any meat-centric dish. My companions raved about the raw oysters and ordered a second round. I think what matters at a place like Phuc Yea is that it has context. We're clearly thousands of miles away from Vietnam, Malaysia and Hong Kong. Phuc Yea doesn't apologize for this fact. Instead, it brings those flavors closer by marrying them carefully and respectfully with the current gastronomy that appeals to local palates. This restaurant can serve as a nice intro to Southeast Asian food for the uninitiated and as a new modern proposal to the jaded. I for one happily fall somewhere in between and will gladly return to sample other surprisingly delicious creations from this imaginative, mindful, well traveled chef. read more

8:30pm reservation on a Saturday night. We were seated promptly and placed starter, wine and soft drink orders. We started with the Oyster Mushrooms and Pork Bao. It was a telling sign that the starters didn't arrive for nearly 45 minutes (9:12pm according to my iPhone camera timestamp) and the Bao were cool to the touch. The flavors were otherwise okay but I think I was probably expecting something more (literally and figuratively) for the $29 we spent on starters. At this point, the fun really starts. Another 47 minutes pass. During this time, our waiter comes by and blames a large party, our waiter promises to comp our food, a manager comes by and says it'll only be three more minutes (very precise...it wasn't just three minutes), the manager comes by again promising drink refills that never show up, etc. We discuss going to a Popeye's we saw on the drive over. Finally at 9:59pm some of our mains arrive - my wife's Black Cod and an order of the PY Noodles. My wife asks our server for a side of white rice (seems like a staple at many Asian inspired restaurants). The Cod and the Noodles are actually pretty tasty, and most importantly hot to the touch and taste. 10:08pm - $50 worth of short rib finally turns up right as I am flagging down our waiter to close our tab and leave. We accept the order although by this point, I've already scarfed down the PY Noodles in full and am just ready to go. A few minutes after that, my wife's white rice turns up along with the check for the full balance of our meal. The irony of being charged $5 for a side of white rice that showed up 15 minutes after the main it was needed for.... I hate leaving bad reviews but honest truth is that there are hundreds of great restaurants in Miami that will gladly serve you a hot meal, quickly, and probably for a lot less than $220. We won't return and can't recommend. read more

First time trying this place out. I like the fact that you have to walk into the place. It has a nice rustic hip vibe and the music was good and the volume was loud enough to hear it but low enough to still have a conversation. Walking into the place was nice but when we walked in it smelled kinda weird if you don't like the smell of mussels. Regardless I couldn't really smell it after a few minutes. We ordered the pho BO which is huge and it good for two people if you hungry. Meat came right off the bone no effort needed! My boyfriend got the seafood Pho which had pork and shrimp that one was my favorite. Very filling and satisfied my pho cravings What I loved most was the edamame hummus. Spicy but lovely ! I'll probably go back just for that and a cocktail. Parking is behind the building. I didn't have any trouble parking for a Friday night. Their happy hour seems good and they have specials during the week. Give it a go read more

Omg this place has a great vibe. The eclectic decor and Asian flare draws you in immediately. The space is incredible. The drinks were amazing and the food...the food was soooo delicious! Their PY noodles were addictive, I even made an additional order to go! The service was top notch, kudos to Fiona our server for an amazing experience. Outstanding service Outstanding food Outstanding attention to detail read more

Dirty place inside so dark you can't see your food would never go back and parking is horrible

Is the food Delicious? Phuc Yea! I came to this restaurant 2 months ago and let me tell you they kill the Brunch game! Seriously, everything is delicious. Some of the best dishes were: The Brekky Noodles- that 63 degree egg, takes the dish to a whole new level. The Crispy Shrimp and Grits, is another item not to be missed, this is probably the best shrimp and grits I've ever tasted. The Beef empanadas, would make any Colombian proud! Spot on flavor. Pro tip: Pair it with $5 Guaro shots. The Summer Roll is another killer dish. If you are seeking a unique meal Phuc Yea will deliver that! When this Covid situation is over and you get a chance to go don't forget to go bottomless with all you can drink Mimosas and PH-Rose! During this surreal time, support them. They have daily specials, let me break that down for you: Banh Mi Monday Pho Wednesday (Pre Oder by Noon and you get FREE all day Rose) Viet BBQ Thursdays Fried Chicken Friday Saturday Biscuits- These Federal Biscuit are so good! Trust me you'll want to try these! And of course.. their famous Sancocho Sunday! In addition, if you are feeling thirsty they have you covered with delicious cocktails TO GO, featuring their version of these classic cocktails: Patio Pounder- Mojito Queen Bee's Potion- Hemingway Daiquiri Lucky Cheng- Old Fashioned Tuk Tuk Beep Beep- (Love the name lol) Spicy Margarita District 5- Saigon Mike Order on their website and Support Local! read more

Finally got around to trying Phuc Yeah and it happened to be on Teacher Appreciation Day (woohoo!) so we had free appetizers and happy hour deals. We probably would have been fine with the amount of apps they brought out but wanted to explore some of the menu. Ambience is adorable, both inside and outside very cozy and authentic. Service was great, everyone is very friendly. Owner came to our table to make sure everything was OK! Parking was a little difficult--their lot is small, so if you're not lucky enough to snag a spot you need to street park nearby. For drinks we started off with a Hip Hop Sour Sop (comes in a juice can--loved the presentation but a little strong for me) and the Saigon Street Tea (winner!! Basically alcoholic bubble tea in a bag. Amazing). For appetizers they brought out chicken wings that were crispy and out of this world (the only other wings I like in miami are Sports Grille. I'm extremely picky and these were delectable!). They also brought out Green Papaya Salad which was so refreshing and unique, as well as tofu bites that were fried to perfection. As for our own meals, we had to try the Sweet N' Sour Pork Belly Bao (highly recommended) and the Daily Crudo, which was Jellyfish, pineapple, sesame, passionfruit, chilies, and nuroc cham. I'd never tried jellyfish before. It was....interesting. The flavors were wonderful but the jellyfish itself was nondescript and the texture got to me a little bit. Took about 2 bites and couldn't follow through. I do have to compliment their dinnerware. The plates are beautiful and add a lot to the restaurant. Would love to come back and try some Pho! read more

I've heard about, and been wanting to come to Phuc Yea for awhile. It was a special celebration of sorts as a good friend is leaving Miami and this place was chosen as one of our final dinners. Needless to say, I was looking forward to dining here. First off, I want to make it clear that the food at Phuc Yea was great. We shared Cajun Fried Rice, Edamame Hummus, Seared Octopus (the best thing on the menu), Fried Chicken, and the Smoked Short Rib. Again, all dishes were great, well cooked, and full of flavor. The seared octopus is straight up addictive! The problem with Phuc Yea are the following: - First off when the reservation was booked, it was originally booked for outside but then moved indoors for some reason. Because of that, my partner couldn't come for health reasons. I figured the outdoor tables went fast and were booked, but when I go to the restaurant and saw the ENTIRE open area they had for dining was open with no one in it and then again when I left, I felt really disappointed by this. - Phuc Yea has a lot of little rules like no substitutions and they won't accept more than 4 cards to pay the bill. To be fair, this is listed on their website, but several of our party didn't read that. I can only imagine many people don't check the website prior. - Probably the one that stings the most is the automatic 20% gratuity. Not sure why this is here as these types of charges are usually charges on hotel restaurants and this is very far from Miami Beach. It really comes off as pretentious. Again, this is on their website, but I didn't see it prior. Finally, these last two are probably isolated events to our group: - We ordered the bread pudding, which was delicious, but for some reason took 30 minutes to get to us. At a point in the meal I was wondering if they forgot to put the order in, or maybe its one of those dishes that takes 30 minutes. Using the lessons learned from above, I checked the website, and there's nothing that says this dish takes long to prepare. I ended up getting out of their later than I would have liked. - Finally, a large party of maybe 10+ guests came in and sat next to us. The noise level coming from this obnoxious group of people was annoying at best. Rude, crude behavior of something you would find at a sports bar, not Phuc Yea. The table behind us was also annoyed. After awhile I just couldn't hear the conversation at my own table. I thought maybe that the staff would have told the group about their behavior at the restaurant but nothing, they just continued to exist with no concern or respect for anyone else. It soured my entire experience. I thought Phuc Yea would be more of a classier place but based on my lone experience of dining here, I question if they have their act together. Perhaps your experience might be better. I would love to come back here with other friends for their food, but am now hesitant as I don't feel the restaurant deserved a 20% tip on poor service. Not sure if I'd return or recommend. read more

I had been wanting to try Phuc Yea for a while and when I saw they had crawfish and it was the last day I just had to go!  I had been dying to have crawfish and there are not very many places to eat them so I was super excited!  I made reservations on Saturday for Sunday at 7:30.   The set up down stairs was kind of odd.  No one was there except for the sushi chef's  (I think that's who they were) and they advised us that someone would be right with us.  We stood around for a bit longer than I expected.  The nice gentleman came down looked up our reservation and said he had to check to see of our table was ready.  So back up the stairs he went and we waited for a bit more.  He opened the doors and asked us to come in.   What first hit me was how loud and cramped the place was.  Not from the music though.  They have music being piped through but it is only to one side of the restaurant. If you are sitting up against the wall It is almost impossible to get to your spot without your butt in someone's table or someone's butt in yours.  Very awkward.   Someone came and took our drink orders and we looked at the menu although I already knew those crawdads were mine!  My boyfriend being vegetarian opted for the broccoli and the veggie roll.  He was not interested in the curry and we didn't see a lot of veggie options.  We probably could have asked the waiter and I am sure the chef would not have minded to create something but the cramped space already had my BF in a bad mood but I was not going to let that get in the way of me enjoying a nice big bowl of mud bugs.  As we waited for our food I was hearing the couple next to us complaining about the service and their crawfish and about the kid clearing tables asking if he could take their plates while they were still eating. I heard them mention it was their it was their second time there.  I just took it as them just being complainers.   The moment I was waiting for arrived.  The bowl was placed before me and I dug in!  I loooved the seasoning. Not terribly spicy and the flavors were so well balanced!  It was time to pinch some tails and suck some heads!  And then the disappointment came.  It was impossible to pinch the tails and pull the meat out because they were so small.  You had to fight to get out a piece of meat that was the size of a pistachio.  I had one small potato in my bowl.  Just one.  I guess it kept my carb intake low.  I did have three pieces of corn that was really good and the andouille was outstanding!  A few tables away from us they were having these beautiful large prawns that looked amazing....and I continued to fight my tiny tails.   The only time we saw our waiter was when we ordered.  I would have loved another glass of wine, would have loved a cup of coffee or shared a dessert.  But no one ever came to us.  20 minutes after our meal was over and the table cleared my BF got up to use the restroom and I finally got up to see if I could get our check.  I asked for the manager.  His name was DJ.  I told him about the situation and he apologized followed by several excuses.  We paid our check standing by the bar, left, and went somewhere else for a bite to eat...we were starving! read more

I wanted to like this place more than I did :( It has a cool vibe, and the dishes were fine but nothing special. We got the fire roasted oysters (four tiny oysters- -the dish is mostly panko), veggie spring rolls, crabby noodles (this is an $18 dish and it has IMITATION CRAB MEAT [?!]), and the roasted pork. The pork was my favorite. The staff wasn't especially friendly or hospitable. Kind of a letdown. read more

Yooooooo Phuc Yeah lives up to its name! First of all, I love pho and Asian food is my favorite so I've tried a lot of places and this spot is top tier.

He recommended my boyfriend to get the Phuc Yea Pho and he loved it!! I got the green papaya salad cause ya girl loves her veggies. It was so flavorful and yummy yummy in my tummy! Can't wait to come back n try some more dishes! Hopefully JONN is our server again, he really brought da vibes! read more

Food is good but not worth the money. Between two people ended up spending $200 for 3 cocktails, 1 rice, 1 bao buns, 1 dessert and 1 entree.

Food was much to be desired. Ambiance was not spectacular. Staff was confrontational . Will not recommend

Phuc Yea - Wagyu - Vietnamese Near Me - Miami, Florida

3 dishes were not particularly good and very small portion for price. The $49 pho was really good and fed 4 people as a main course, so that was cool. Ambiance is not very nice, I wouldn't impress anyone here, feels like a parking area next to an alley. The service was weird, like they didn't know how to explain basic things in English and were a little rude. The 20% required gratuity should be illegal. Absolutely not ok to charge that and then they ask for a minimum of 5% more on top when you get the check? I have to click on "no tip" on a huge screen in front of other diners to only tip 20% for halfway done, unsophisticated service? 2 stars is generous read more

My best friend took me here as it was down the street from our Air BNB. She said it was absolutely AMAZING and we had to go. (I should note she is an extremely picky eater). We made reservations on Sunday for 12 and of course being just opening it was extremely empty, but that's okay with us! We had an amazing waiter by the name of David who was able to give us some great recommendations that we took. I'm sad that I didn't take photos of all the food, but take it from me... IT WAS AMAZING! We had to start fried shrimp and fried chicken bao. Our waiter expressed how fried chicken bao was only on Sundays. We also had P.Y. Noodles, the Summer Roll, Pork Dumplings, and French Toast Bites for dessert. We ate every single bite of everything and it was perfect. We loved the family style of sharing because it gave us the opportunity to try so many things. My friend had two mimosas with passion fruit in it that she enjoyed as well. You could even see the bits of fruit on the bottom of the glass, that's how fresh it was! We were shocked to see how much the bill was (in a good way) for SIX plates of food and two mimosas. It was a lot less than what we originally guessed. I would definitely love to come to this place the next time we are in Miami. It was so delicious and I can't wait to try all the other things from the menu. read more

Great music and very nice ambience. If you're looking for a chill vibe, this is definitely the place to go to. I had the masitas de puerco, papaya salad, clam curry, and PY noodles. My favorites were the masitas and curry! Delicious and unique. The only thing I would say is if you're not a fan of spicy food then this isn't the place for you. Many of their dishes are a bit spicy and have jalapeños. read more

We had dinner there last night. The place decor and ambiance is nice. The food OK. Some dishes were great (ribs and dumplings), others were not (noddles). For a restaurant that the first thing that puts on their menu is a message that a "MANDATORY" 20% service will be charged they are setting an expectation that you are in for an outstanding level of service which was far from what we experienced. We felt nickel and dimmed about every little thing. They conduct business with a lack of transparency and we were surprised by a things when we got the bill: - $14 Martinis come with an extra $2 charge for the bartender sharking it (?) - The smoked porked riblets came with an extra $4 charge for pickles! And another $4 charge for steam buns. This was conveniently not mentioned to us when we ordered that dish. We ordered a bottle of wine and multiple drinks. ONE of those $14 drinks was not to our liking. When we brought this to the waiters' attention his response was that the restaurant had a policy of not changing any drinks. That we could send it back and order a new one but that he was not going to be able to remove this one from the check.! Is this the type of response from a restaurant that pretends to impose a 20% service change?. These issues combined with an imposed 20% mandatory service charge made it a disappointing experience. read more

The Miami Spice brunch menu at Phuc Yea was packed with a variety of flavors. The Flour and Weirdoughs bread basket came with delicious treats and even more delicious spicy honey which is not to be missed. The chicken wings and waffles comes with a sweet sauce that perfectly combines the meat and waffle. The short rib hash also had a delightful kick which brings out the flavors without burning your mouth. Although it is hard to pick a favorite the biscuits and gravy are a stand out dish. The biscuit is sumptuous but that cajun style gravy transports you straight to New Orleans. For the grand finally you have french toast sticks which are a take on your childhood favorite if your mom was an all star chef and not a microwave champion. read more

Great time with Antionio as our bartender. I wanted to try as many items from the menu as possible and he helped us order the perfect items. Here's how it went Cocktails - phuc it just eat me (mine) - mimo spritz (mine) - phuongs den (my bf) - missionaries downfall (my bf) Food: - 2 dozen oysters (east & west) - papaya salad paired with - imperial roll - duck confit - bread pudding Try these, thank me later. Papaya salad was fresh, great ingredients that went well together with the imperial rolls. I used the salad as filling for the wraps i made and it was a great idea. The oysters were the perfect in between snack to have while we chatted and waited for the next dish. The duck was the grand finale. It was perfectly crispy. The pickled daikon with pineapple was such a nice fresh touch to the curry. It lightened up the dish and it was perfect to share considering we still wanted desert. The bread pudding was a lot, im not going to lie. Maybe we'll go for something lighter next time. Either way, it was topped with coconut and powdered sugar, perfect! read more

An almost hidden gem on Biscayne Blvd... I pass by here quite often due to it being in in my neighborhood, & the name has always seemed funny to me, however, never in my wildest dreams would I have expected it to be how it was... it seems like a tiny little restaurant from the outside, but in good ol' Miamian fashion, "honeyyyy let me tell you something!", I was super surprised! Once I finally found where to park (since it was packed, & to be fair, there are a good # of spaces but I'm assuming it was peak hour & this place seems to be liked by a lot of people), I walked in through the back entrance & was greeted by nice people who took me inside to see the huge pleasant surprise of how big this place truly is! I sat by the bar bc like I mentioned, it was packed! The lighting is low, decor is nice, the vibes are definitely vibing, especially to go w/ a significant other bc it's kinda romantic & dark, however, it can be cute for any regular occasion, & for first timers too, bc the place alone will be a great conversation starter. The people that work there are attentive but not to the point of being overly attentive, which I personally don't mind about (since I prefer staff to not check on me every 2 minutes)... the food was good, but on the pricey side IMO. I don't remember exactly what I ordered but I remember it being well cooked, tasty, & not cheap for what it was, those three details ARE in fact, really clear in my mind, lol. So overall experience: beautiful place, finding a parking spot was not my favorite but the people inside were nice, & the menu was on what I would call not crazy expensive but definitely not super affordable (depending on what you order). I will end this review by saying that I do recommend the place & will most likely return again, next time w/ company bc I believe it'll be an even more enjoyable experience that way. read more
