I was told that when you're in Florida ESPECIALLY Miami you HAVE to get Cuban food. And wow... now…read moreI understand why. As we were driving in, the place already looked beautiful. We came in the evening and immediately, as we walked up, there was music, people laughing, talking, smiling... the energy was incredible. I also loved that there was a bar off to the side while waiting. We ordered a few mojitos and sat outside at the tables and benches, just enjoying the atmosphere. When our name was finally called and we walked inside, I genuinely felt like I was stepping into history. The atmosphere here is unmatched. The music, the aromas, the people. God, I loved it here and I hadn't even tried the food yet. We ordered the braised oxtail (which came with plantains and rice), salmon glazed in guava BBQ sauce, ceviche tropical, assorted empanadas, and a Cuban sandwich. Everything was phenomenal. The sauce paired with the empanadas perfectly. The guava BBQ glaze on the salmon was absolute perfection. It was the perfect combo of sweet, smoky, and flavorful. The ceviche had the perfect acidity and tasted so fresh and refreshing. This is one of the most famous Cuban restaurants in Miami. It completely lives up to the reputation. Highly recommended

DIRT AND MUD IN THE SALAD!!! WATCH OUT…read more We ordered the salad with mango and pecans. They do not wash there lettuce. There was literally dirt/mud at the bottom and I took my first bite and it felt like biting into sand. Upon spitting the food out onto my plate it was black sludge. Literally my tongue and teeth were black. The waiter came by and grabbed the plate when I was in the bathroom. I spent about 10 minutes trying to get that BLACK SLUDGE out of my mouth. When I was spitting out the dirt/mud wife noticed the bus boys laughing at me and there was not a manger in sight. When I asked for a manager he did not even respond. No apology or anything just a look of confusion. Worst experience in a restaurant in my life and I love to eat and have been to many types of restaurant big and small. Cheap and expensive and this one takes the cake. We were so bummed as I see thousands of great reviews. But if there was a zero I would have given zero stars the way they handled the situation. If you eat there in the future make sure to check for DIRT/MUD.

The menu has a nice variety of options, so it's easy to find something you're in the mood for whether you want something light or a more filling meal. Everything comes out quickly, but still tastes like it's made with care rather than rushed. The atmosphere is relaxed and casual, making it a perfect place to grab a quick lunch or an easy dinner without spending a lot. Overall, it's a reliable go-to when you want good food that won't break the bank.

The Sichuan hot pot was more but is a bigger pot than the cheaper options which was nice to note, and the flavors were pretty authentic for Taiwanese hot pot!

The service is good here and the staff are friendly and will answer any questions you might have about hot pot. The ambiance is similar to a regular sit down diner but I saw a lot of ppl order takeout as well!

The chicharrón had little to no meat, the beans had no seasoning at all, and the corn cake was so dry and dense it felt like biting into a ball of brown paper. For a dish that should be flavorful and comforting, it missed every mark. On the positive side, we loved the empanadas, especially the meat ones -- crispy, well‑seasoned, and easily the best part of the meal. The guanábana juice was also delicious and refreshing. The service was a 10. Friendly, attentive, and honestly the highlight of the visit. Overall: amazing service and great empanadas, but the bandeja paisa needs serious improvement.

Our server Carolina, was a sweet heart and gave us the perfect recommendations on what to eat and try. The drinks were all made by her and were delicious.

P.S- Parking was pretty easy to find if you get there early around 5-6pm but after that it gets pretty packed so make sure to make reservations online. Thank you so much!

Google said they have good $10 happy hour eats and drinks, but they didn't have any of the food options when I went. The cocktails were great! A super cute bartender made them and served them up to us at this dimly lit bar. So dimly lit we could barely read the menu and I'm not old, I swear! Lol. I'm not even sure what it is that we ordered, kind of like a ceviche meets guacamole. I think it was good, I'm honestly not sure. It was fatty, almost buttery, my date didn't like that. It came with some kind of chip that broke really easily. The marinated cucumber dish was pretty solid though. I'd get that again. I have friends in the area, so I'll likely try it again, but there will be many other places that I'll be trying first.

Service was good but could use more servers at times. Ambiance and decorations were good. There is some glare from the windows when the sun is out. I think this place is worth a shot if you don't have other options/ if you want to have a lot of different food options. Food: 1) tteokboki: tasted really great and had a spice to it. The chicken was okay with it but it did not need it. The egg was interesting to me but it was still good. 2) green tea: very refreshing

I ordered the Sancocho de Costilla and it was packed with tender beef rib, yuca, potato, carrot, plantain, and corn in a rich, flavorful broth. The portion was generous and tasted homemade perfect for a hearty meal. I paired it with a fresh beets salad and crispy tostones on the side. The tostones were perfectly fried (golden and crunchy), and the avocado + lime on the plate added a nice fresh touch. Everything came out hot and well-seasoned. Nothing fancy about the setting, but the food delivers that authentic Colombian taste. Service was friendly and quick. Great value for the portion sizes. Will be back to try more items next time

The only downside was the service, but that was clearly due to the restaurant being understaffed--not the fault of the staff, who were doing their best under the circumstances.

The service was ok, a little slow. We ordered the karage chicken and it was reaaalllyy good. We also ordered the ramen which felt not super traditional in its flavor, but we enjoyed a lot. The only thing I don't like about Baby Jane is that they have a DJ who BLASTS (and I do mean BLASTS) music once they start their set. I feel like it doesn't match the vibe of the really cool, laid back atmosphere. It's a small bar / restaurant, and you can't hear the person next to you once the DJ starts.

Rating: 5.0 Been a…read morehuge fan of the Iron Chef show since I was a kid and my favorite has aways been the Japanese Chef Masaharu Morimoto! And since experiencing his Disney Springs restaurant Morimoto Asia, I had been looking forward for him to come to Miami. This was a couple of years back during the cooler season in Miami. RESTAURANT: I just know that this location is going to be beautiful. Chef Morimoto restaurants are worldwide and so I was not disappointed to see how beautiful this restaurant was and how perfectly complemented the vibe of the Wynwood scene. The restaurant doors open to the street, which was perfect during our winter visit. Inside is an open floor plan with a variety of seating options from the izakaya style table, banquet dining against the wall, to the huge bar. There are even covered seating outside that reminded me of New York. Decor is both minimal but with burst of colors with his signature wall art and backlit panels against the wall. And ofcourse, it won't be an authentic Japanese restaurant without the a display of hyper-realistic food models which can be found as soon as you enter the restaurant to entice your taste buds. Everything just looked sleaked and clean and love the pop of green from the huge fig trees. SERVICE: Service was amazing. From the moment we entered, we were greeted and seated right away for our reservation. Our server answered all of our questions and suggested some fruity cocktails. And lo and behold, owner Chef Morimoto himself presented us with our food and torched it right infront of us! He was so polite and humble and wonderful. We watched him moved from one side of the restaurant to the other with the endurance of a guy in his 20s and he's like 60 something! He did not stop. It was such a treat to have him in our table and how he indulged us when we chanted "Iron Chef! Iron Chef!". It was an amazing experience. FOOD: The menu have the right amount of options, from finger food to ramen, sushi and not to mention the drinks. For starters, pork belly and soft shell crab bao and bbq ribs. Deliciousness! The buns warm and pillowy. The pork, so tender. But that soft shell crab...that made me want to slap someone it was so good. Flavorful, no fishiness whatsoever, crunch on the outside and just happiness on the inside. I will eat a million of these. Then my friend ordered some Yakitori fresh from the grill: chicken, pork belly, shrimp, wagyu. They were simple, fresh and so fingerlicking good. Then the ramen; tonkotsu and gyukotsu. On this cold evening, it was exactly what we needed. These two huge bowls we passed around our table of six. The broth were divine! The pork belly was so delicate that it melts in your mouth. The beef falling off the bones were so tender and delicious. Sushi rolls: spider roll and the surf and turf. The spider roll with that soft shell crab was bomb. But the that A5 wagyu surf and turf was the star of the show. It comes out as raw slices on a roll and Chef Morimoto came out and torched it himself next to our table! I don't know if it tasted spectacular because it's wagyu or because the chef himself had torched it but this was my favorite! Overall, this was the most memorable dining experience I've had in a long time. I am sure that fangirling over the Iron Chef was the main reason but it seems that everything just fell into place for us that evening. Parking was literally next door in the garage, super easy no drama. Service was next level, maybe because the boss was there but we were not going to complain. And the food, impeccable! Pricepoint is just reasonable considering the quality, quantity and the location. It is definitely worth the trip coming here and I can't wait to visit again soon to see if everything will be the same without the Chef Morimoto around. I have a feeling it will be just as wonderful.

Last night that place was Momi Ramen in Brickell. I went after work on a cool, lightly rainy evening when all I wanted was something comforting. Ramen felt right. This was actually my first time here, even though I've lived in Brickell for ten years. They used to be cash only, which honestly kept me away, but they now accept credit cards, so it finally felt accessible. The space is small and intimate, almost like a New York-style Asian diner. Quiet, calm, and focused on the food. I ordered the chicken ramen with a Sapporo and everything hit exactly how it should. Deep flavors, well balanced, and incredibly comforting. If you're looking for a good meal in Brickell that doesn't feel like an influencer set, this is it. Sometimes the best places are the ones that just do their job well and let the food speak for itself.
