The meal was decent/acceptable for the exorbitant cost. The pasta entree and savory treat macaron were the standouts. The front-of-house team emitted a rather odd, annoyed vibe. The service staff are quite rushed with their explanations of the dishes, and it is quite noisy for such a tiny dining area. read more

Everything I expected. Service was excellent. Everyone was attentive and informative. Still thinking about the tuna with the hint of curry.

Exquisite, superb, soul satisfying food at Stubborn Seed. Staff is very kind and attentive and the food is exceptional. I often go back to my photos to re-visualize the meal because it was so delicious. The meals appear to be so simple but once the food landed on your tongue your taste buds are instantly satisfied, curious and impressed by the flavor profiles and how different things successfully blend together so nicely. The cooking staff are clearly very talented! read more

I've been to Stubborn Seed twice in April. First time a 4 star second time 5 star. The difference for me was ordering the tasting menu vs the regular menu. The first time around the waiter would not tell us what was on the menu vs he would avoid any allergies. The second time the waiter provided the information so all three of us ordered. Everything was delicious highly recommend going. read more

I came here for my birthday on a Friday night. The restaurant was relatively crowded but the ambiance was perfect. When we were originally seated I decided I wanted to sit where I could see the kitchen and they were very accommodating and moved us right away. Upon sitting down and looking at the menu, I noticed at the top there was a message that said "Happy Birthday to the Morris party". What a nice touch! From here, I'll go through every item we had: 1. Rest in Peaches (boyfriend's drink) - he liked it and felt it was strong 2. Stubborn Seed Old Fashioned (I had 2)- very good 3. Gooey Jalapeño Fritters - good, not great 4. Yellow Fin Tuna Tartare - phenomenal, and I'm not even a fish person. I could've had a few of these for an entire meal and would've been completely satisfied with only that as a meal. 5. Ricotta Gnudi and Gratitude Garden Mushroom - could've done without the foam, but the gnudi themselves were incredibly creamy and luscious. I'm not a big mushroom fan and wasn't a fan of the mushroom stalks but the tops had a nice texture and sort of tasted like meat. 6. Pan Roasted Barramundi (boyfriend's but I tasted it) - good, very crispy skin which was great, and a really yummy broth 7. Westholm Ranch Koji Waygu - freaking phenomenal. Probably the best steak I've ever had. I can't say enough how DELICIOUS this was. Server recommended medium rare and even though I normally go with medium, I went with his suggestion. 8. Caramel Rum Cake - super good. My boyfriend called ahead to have them put a candle on the plate and they were able to accommodate 9. I think it was called All Chai'd Up or something? Cocktail with rum in it...very smooth and easy to drink but I thought the description mentioned milk in it and the drink was completely clear. That's it for what we ordered. The service was spot on. The food runner explained the dishes in detail and with enthusiasm. Our waiter couldn't have been better. The meal was probably top 2 or 3 best meals I've had in my life, if not #1. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and even though it was expensive, I would absolutely go back. Super happy with the entire experience. read more

So, I'm forced to give Stubborn Seed 5 stars but only because 6 wasn't an option. Everything was amazing. The restaurant has a quiet elegance without being pretentious. Even with most of the tables filled, the noise level was relatively low allowing easy conversation. The aesthetic invited a relaxing feeling. The service was too notch, starting with Maya at the front to our waiter Arturo. Both were very warm, friendly and attentive. However, it is quickly apparent the the entire service staff at Stubborn seed operate as highly synchronized team. Everyone who brought a dish had a smile and a detailed description of what was being presented. It was my wife's birthday and she was as made to feel like a VIP; we even had a personalized message on our menu! Small gestures, but meaningful. The food. What can I say other than everything we ate was fantastic. Each dish had layers of flavor and were balanced to perfection. The skill of the chefs and their attention to detail was present in each bite. Starters: Cacio E pepe - amazing Yellowfiah tuna crudo - amazing Foie gras - sensational Ricotta gnudi - great Entrees: Red snapper - amazing Bell and evans chicken - Sensational Desserts were amazing too. I do not remember descriptions - blueberry dish, apple dish (38 layers of apple pressed together!!!), peanut butter dish. If you live in Miami, Stubborn Seed is a place you need to visit. You will not be disappointed. If you do not live in Miami, book a trip to Miami and make a reservation!! Best restaurant I've eaten at. Ever. read more

My stomach is super satisfied! My sis and went here and had two appetizers. The CRUNCHY TRUFFLE BRAVAS and the Foie gras. Both were delicious. The Foie Gras had smoke flavor a little crispy on the outside. It was instant gratification, I want to do it again. read more

This place is a real treat. Recommend by couple of friends we reserved a table for a Sunday brunch feeling a bit sceptical but wow, this place delivered! Firstly new to Miami we had no idea that finding a parking space in the area can be a real mission. We called the restaurant to give them heads up and let them know that we shall be running late. They were nothing but very understanding and accommodating and gladly kept the table for us. Their brunch offer is insane! The food is beautiful cooked and presented. I've never had a 3 course brunch before but I loved it! Staff is very friendly and extremely attentive. We were hoping to go back and have dinner there but sadly ran out of time with so much to do in Miami. We shall be back! read more

What took me so long? Our anniversary is in January and Husband knocked it out of the park with this choice! Stubborn Seed's tasting menu was everything I could have asked for in a celebratory meal. So many courses, textures, flavors, and combinations you never would have dreamed of! Started with an $18 cocktail, the Dessert Daisy, which was so pretty, refreshing, sweet, and a little spicy. Almost immediately a plate of snacks came to our table. Delicious little little morsels which were only a tease for the parade of courses that would follow. Some of the following courses included: Kushi Oysters-I heard Chef Jeremy sends the oysters back if they are not utterly fresh. The Thai chili mignonette gives the oysters a nice pop of flavor. Lavash with chicken liver butter. All I can say is this is not your Bubby's chopped liver! Hawaiian Kajiki, Warm Celery Root-I never thought I would eat celery root....and like it! With mushrooms, herbs, and blossoms, I have never quite tasted anything like this dish! Umami Short Rib (with a miso mustard butter) will absolutely melt in your mouth! Other dishes included Roasted Main Scallops, and Smoked Foie Gras. All of the fish tasted like it just came from the sea. My only disappointment was that there was no Butter Poached Lobster on this tasting menu. I had read about Lobster being on other tasting menus served but I do know these types of menus can change daily. The Scallops were very good but not my favorite item on the menu. So hard to pick a favorite dish. I loved the Foie Gras and the Umami Short Rib was so rich and flavorful. Actually, the dessert, the Corn Pavlova might be a candidate for one of my favorites I am not usually a dessert person but this dish was so unique! It was not overly sweet and tasted so heavenly I could have licked the plate Service could not have been better. The plates came out at a nice pace and every dish was described in detail by our server. We were not sitting right in front of the kitchen window but we did get several glimpses of Top Chef winner Jeremy Ford at work. Thinking about this meal seven and a half months ago makes my mouth water. Stubborn Seed is a restaurant with serious but playful food and I can't wait to try it again. read more

The ambiance is romantic and laid back. When you sit at the table you unravel your linen and take out a flower. We were greeted and served majority of the time by the front of the house manager. We did an 8 course tasting menu. The biscuits were the best cheddar jalapeño biscuits I've tasted. Oysters with sour apple mignonette wowed me. The open blue cobia was flavor packed with citrus and acidity. The smoked prime rib wasn't exactly what I expected. Overall, chef Jeremy Ford has a creative and flavorful menu that I can admire, but his kitchen lacked organization on 11/28/20 Saturday night at 8:45pm. The time in between dishes of the tasting course was uncomfortable. My guest and I were physically uncomfortable (our asses and legs were numb) for sitting for so long. We were there from 8:45-11:45 (the earliest). We ended up being excited to leave the restaurant which was a feeling not expected from when we arrived. Who knows what happened in the kitchen that night, front of the house manager offered us two free beers and kept marching in and out of the kitchen on our behalf without out us requesting it. We were sitting at a table across from the bar and the bartender could see how miserable our experience was and were offered free tequila shots (We refused). Since we had a flight at 4am. The server was majority of the time absent and no one advocated to take anything off the check. So we paid $300 (including my first beer) and NOT including tax or tip for the experience to taste a top chef's creative food and for over three hours of sitting on our sore asses. Coming from a server myself. I was insulted to be just offered a free beer for that, but I'm a believer the only advocate for comps should come from the restaurant. I don't think @stubbornseed advocated for its guests this night to seek their money was well spent. And it was not. Would I give @stubbornseed a second chance? Not sure. All I know is we paid close to $400 for an absent server, physically uncomfortable wait in between courses, and creative dishes that were either a hit or a miss. read more

6 STARS! Vibe: Small and very intimate. Service: Our waiter Jake, was very attentive but not intrusive. While he was busy, the other wait staff were happy to help out. Drinks: All three of us ordered from the tasting menu. I had the beverage pairing while my brother had the wine pairing. Please note that the beverage pairing consists of an eclectic mix wine, sake, and liquor which all paired very well with each dish that was brought out. I was happy I chose the beverage pairing. Food: As mentioned earlier, we all ordered from the 8 course tasting menu not knowing what each course entailed. By the way, the entire table has to order from the tasting menu in order for you to try it. With that said, we had: Chicken liver spread Caviar Komodo oysters Gooey truffle cheese Cobia Warm celery root Orange serbet (palate cleanser) Parpadelle with foie gras Lobster in Thai Curry Sauce Lamb with miso brown butter glaze Last but not least, the dessert which I cannot remember the name of, but it was a slice of heaven on Earth. You can tell the amount of time, love, and dedication was reflected in each perfectly presented dish. Everything was very flavorful and most of the dishes had different seeds in it highlighting the chefs personality. The only dish I wasn't too fond of was the Cobia- everything else was exceptional. Verdict: I wish I could afford to come back at least once a week. Bravo Chef Jeremy Ford. We'll definitely be back. read more

Immensely creative food and drinks. What's better is that they actually taste good! Ambience is decent. Frankly a bit ordinary. The open kitchen behind giant window showcases what looks like a well run machine. Food service by one of the chefs is a great touch. Been here many times. Will keep coming back. read more

Amazing experience! We had the chefs tasting menu. Every dish was better then the one before. We also ordered the wine tasting to go with our meal. Fabulous meal, fabulous service! read more

Stubborn seed's winter menu is one of the best Miami meals you can find on south beach. The fact that Jeremy Ford invents the menu daily should sell you right off the bat. Most of the dishes incorporate local ingredients (the fresh caught wahoo was delicious). The menu also takes risks that more than pay off - the koji wagyu ribeye comes with a miso sauce that complements extremely well. I also appreciate their "sharing" style of dining - each dish comes to your table as it's finished, instead of in separate courses, so you're getting the freshest preparation of the dish. Good food comes at a price, but in this case it's very worth it. read more

Not enough things to say about this place. From the moment we walked in we were greeted with impeccable service. Luis, our waiter, was attentive, didn't skip a beat and made sure we were happy with our meal the whole way through. The food was one incredible course after the other- truly and experience with all the broths poured, smoky bubbles popping, drinks color changing before your eyes. Although it's a total of 9 items it's perfectly sized so you leave full but not overly stuffed. The restaurant opened at 6, our reservation was at 6 and by 7 the placed was almost full but the service didn't diminish. The plates took a little longer to come out but not so much that we were wondering when it would arrive. The soundtrack played just loud enough to hear but would get lost in the background easily. Located on the corner across from a parking lot and tons of street parking. The lighting wasn't too bright ,'didn't feel like and interrogation room. Overall 10/10 would absolutely recommend if you want to splurge on a lovely dining experience. At the very least, try the duck truffle dish - holy cow read more

The short version: very tasty, interesting plates, and great service. Try the Wild Tuna and Beef Cheeks. I would go back! The longer version: Walking into the restaurant, you immediately notice the ambiance is dark and moody. The dining area is mid-size/on the smaller side with a larger bar area. The waiters are very knowledgeable of the dishes and flavor profiles and explain what each dish is as they set it in front of you. The dishes are made to be shared and are a good size to do so. The appetizers are small enough to order multiple things to try, and the entrees are large enough to be satisfied from just one plate, but not be completely stuffed or leave food left over, which I appreciate. The menu is printed daily, so some items change. Let me preface this by saying the price point is pretty steep for the entrees. I went for my birthday so we balled out, and I had never been so I wanted to try a lot of things. We started with the house made bread which is soft, salty, and delicious. It's served with fennel pollen and garbanzo chili dip, which is a refreshingly creamy alternative to butter. The fennel taste was a bit too strong for me, but I'm not a fan of fennel to begin with. I still ate it cause it was too good! Then, we had the Wild Tuna, which was our favorite. The habanero yogurt was EXQUISITE. There was a lovely balance of textures with the micro greens and crispy rice. I wish I could have more. I'll be going back specifically for this item. We also had the Charred Octopus. I can't give this the correct assessment because it's supposed to come with crispy potatoes, but they forgot them (and corrected this very gracefully by bringing us the potatoes after on the house), so it felt like the octopus was a bit too smoky, but I feel like the potatoes would've balanced it. I'm not sure I would try it again, but overall the octopus was tender and well cooked. For entrees, we had the Bell & Evans Chicken and the Mishima Ranch Beef Cheek. The Chicken was nothing to write home about, but the purée with truffle butter was plate-licking good. It really made the dish. The Beef Cheek was to die for. It was so tender and fell apart without using a knife. The plating was gorgeous. The flavors were all there. It was really freaking delicious. A must try. For dessert we had the Snickerdoodle Cookies with the added malted milk ice cream. Wow, these were yummy. The cookies have chocolate in the center. They were salty and fresh. The ice cream was perfectly mild. It wasn't too sweet. You can actually control the sweetness because they put cinnamon sugar underneath the ice cream which was a lovely surprise. If you love cookies, try them! A piece of advice for the price point: For all of these things plus 2 drinks, we ended up spending around $200. For $115 pp you can get a 5 course surprise menu. I feel like that's worth it if you see yourself ordering a lot of dishes, or if you're comfortable spending that much to try multiple things. read more

My boyfriend and I came here for our last night in Miami and when we thought the food in Miami couldn't get any better, Stubborn Seed proved us wrong! The atmosphere: modern and sophisticated. I especially liked that they had our seats side-by-side at a two person table. I know some people are opposed to be "same-side" seaters, but I really think it made for a better experience when doing the tasting menu because the waiter could look at as both while describing the dishes and drinks. The food: W-O-W. I can honestly say that this was in the top five (and we eat A LOT) meals of my life! We opted to do the tasting menu as well as the beverage pairing. Now, let me emphasize that this was not a wine pairing, but a mix of wines, beers, and cocktails. Unlike some of the other reviews that I read, I really thought that the pairings added to the food experience. There were some expected pairings like champagne with the oysters, but some more fun pairings as well! Although every dish was fantastic, the standouts for me were the smoked foie gras, lamb loin, and the chicken liver lavish!! Overall, this place IS pricey, but I can honestly say that it is as much of an experience as it is delicious. read more

Food : 2 stars. Too expensive for the portions and Food offerings, it cost us $175.00 per person , plus, beverages, tax and tips. When we made the reservation, we were not informed that Friday evening dinners only serve set Tasting Menu, no other choices if you want to dine at the dinning room! Service: 3 stars. After we being seated, we were informed that the Tasting Menu dinner will take two (2) hours, it was hard to complain slow service. However, our server and Food runner were pleasant. Ambiance: 2 stars. Too loud Rock and Roll music. MMH Service : 4 stars. The 7 course small tasting meal took more than two hours from their kitchen. it was hard to complain slow service. read more

I spent months over hearing this kid named Alfredo praise this place at a bar I frequent. I had to finally come see for myself if it was the hype he says or if maybe he praises it because he bangs the chef. Finally came in tonight: Location great. Decor great. Hostess great. Bartender great. Guy in the suit (manager)? great! Random server that wasn't even my server named Mario introduced himself to me, fucking great. Looking through the window seeing Jeremy Ford yell at his chefs... some shit you'd see on TV, f*cking great! Everything was going perfect till we sat down and met our server Matt. Off the bat the whole welcoming / inviting feeling disappeared when I had to deal with Matt. Zero people skills, I asked him recommendations or to explain to me dishes and he would roll his eyes and feel pissed that he had to serve me. Thankfully Alfredo came out gave me suggestions and the dishes were actually amazing. The food lived up to all the hype; super creative, amazing presentation, it was literally a flavor adventure of dishes I have never experienced. Jeremy Ford really knows what he's doing to capture his diners. The only reason I'm knocking two stars is because for such an amazing experience all it took was one dickhead server that is equivalent to a Boston Market Employee to kill the whole experience. Thankfully towards the end some skinny kid with blonde/red long hair came and took over and helped end the night pleasant. Thank you for the invite Alfredo! Lived up to the hype! P.S the snickerdoodle cookies are to die for! read more

Two words characterized our experience at Stubborn Seed: smoke and sauce. You're more than likely to encounter a plume of smoke rising from your food or beverage, a move that feels a little showy or naive to jaded New Yorkers. But you're also likely to encounter a beautiful sauce, either dotted artistically on your dish or as the main event, that convinces you that the kitchen knows exactly what it's doing and helps you excuse its juvenile antics. When we arrived for our 8:30 reservation on a Sunday night, which I booked a week or two out, our table wasn't yet ready. We sat at the bar and ordered two drinks, each $18. My boyfriend opted for the Park Lane Sour, a scotch-fueled take on a whiskey sour pumped up with egg white and with a wicked licorice finish. I had the Half Baked, with rum, punsch, sweet potato, and orgeat. Oh, and smoke, which was trapped in the bong-like glass. This is the best smelling smoke I've probably ever smelled, to the point that we kept pulling out the top a little bit to smell it. My boyfriend also declared it to be the best drink he'd ever had, and while I don't know if I would go quite that far, it has definitively made it on to my 2018 shortlist. Get this, even if you don't know what the ingredients are. We were seated about 15 minutes later, at a shared table looking into the kitchen. It's a little less vibe-y than the rest of the dining room, but we ended up enjoying watching the chefs, including Jeremy Ford. We opted not to do the tasting menu and just order a-la-carte. Our meal kicked off with the Kusshi oysters ($23). It was hard to taste the underlying flavor, as they were doused in a sweet chili-spiked mignonette, but it was so good that I wasn't complaining. This one was also presented with smoke, though more of a dry-ice smoke situation. Next was the house made bread, which I think we neither ordered nor paid for. The bread was solid and the dip herbal and delicious. Next was a crudo / tartare which may have been a special as I can't find it on the menu now, with great plating and a good assortment of textures. Fish quality was superb. We were going all out, so of course we needed to do the foie gras ($28). I'm usually not a big fan of this, but the sear on it was unreal, and the quince paste complemented it perfectly. Umami short rib ($39) turned out to be a Trojan Horse for carrots served, I think, 6 different ways: two sauces, a foam, shaved, cooked, and powdered. All were lovely. The short rib itself was only okay; the roasted mushrooms ended up upstaging it. Rounding off the meal was the jojo tea cured cobia ($16), with smoke rising like a fine, shimmering mist from a pond of bubbling celery broth. The fish was unreal, and again a notable range of textures. We called it quits before dessert as we were stuffed. Service, after the initial hiccup of our table not being ready, was great. Staff was personable and presented the dishes well. The pacing ended up being pretty quick, between an hour and an hour and a half, but we didn't feel rushed. Best meal of the trip by far. It ended up approaching $100 each after tax and tip so save it for a special occasion. read more

Went back again & still loving this place. They've changed their food & cocktail menu a bit, but they still have many of the items customers have loved like the Jojo tea-cured cobia, the lavash, the celery root, the lobster in green curry, the chicken dish, and the potato bread with garbanzo dip. Some of the new items for fall include a pumpkin pappardelle dish (Divine, creamy, flavorful) & a spiced apple cake with bourbon toffee & cream cheese frosting for dessert (small portion is perfect given the richness of the cake). One of my favorite cocktails (the Desert Daisy) is gone so I had the Sunny Day & added some jalapeño for a kick. It was also very good, but I missed the Desert Daisy. I took a friend visiting from out of town to showcase the cuisine of Miami & she loved it. Also my friend has Celiac Disease so she asked for her food to be gluten-free & the kitchen was happy to accommodate her. For example, for the celery root, the mushroom is normally fried in a tempura batter so they didn't do that & instead just served the mushrooms without the batter (still great). She then had the lamb (gluten-free) for dinner & the dirty chai affogatto for dessert (she just skipped the almond biscotti). Still my favorite restaurant in Miami. I'll be back. read more

By the end of the second course (scallop aguachile) I thought we were in for disappointment because nothing could taste better than the second course.

The "eight" course ($150) tasting menu includes a course comprised of a single clam the size of a stunted snail , a half melted palate cleanser of nondescript sorbet of indeterminate type , overcooked fish and tough Wagyu (didn't know this was possible). This is a "culinary adventure" into mediocrity. Service was even worse . Forty five minutes between pasta and fish (maybe why it was over cooked) and then between fish and meat (doesn't explain why it was tough) and a rather socially limited staff that without our asking told us they would serve our food before others who were waiting even longer (hopefully not since lunch) which felt sordid. They called literally one minute after our reservation time as we were walking in to find out where we were. They clearly seem more concerned with their time rather than ours . read more

My favorite dinning experience in Miami. The food is fun, every course was unique and full of flavor. The staff was phenomenal. Our server, Stephen, navigated us through the tasting menu and made libation recomendations that paired perfectly with our food. Thanks to everyone at Stubborn Seed for a great night. read more

One of the worst service experiences we've had in any city, ever. The host is an unmitigated disaster. After we arrived on time for our reservation and waited for 45+ minutes he gave away our seats to a couple that arrived AN HOUR LATE and then told us "things are complicated" and that "we didn't want those seats anyways". Other highlights include him telling all the waiting couples that the "chef was stressed and punching the walls in the kitchen". For a 9:15 PM reservation, we got seated at 10:15 and left at 12:15 AM. At 10:40 I had to ask when our tasting menu would start coming out. I got a blank stare and a "whenever you want". When service finally started, a manager came over to inform us that they don't accommodate vegetarians (despite us calling and being told they have a vegetarian tasting menu) and they don't accommodate any food allergies. And as a result there would be a course where I wouldn't get food. It is 2022. And you can't handle a vegetarian course? Get with the times. It's unfortunate how the service ruined the night because the food itself was delicious and super inventive. The cocktails were also really good. So is a $300 tasting here worth it? Up to you. The food is fantastic, the service catastrophic. We won't be back and wouldn't recommend it to any of our friends. read more

To put it short and clear this is the most amazing restaurant I have been in the last years ( and I have been in a lot of them). It is impossible not to be surprised by the incredible creations.

Paired with the roasted cauliflower was an amazing meal for two. Finish with the snicker doodle cookies and this is a night I would recommend to everyone! read more

This is my second time at stubborn seed we returned since the first experience was wonderful .I have to say they where very sweet in printing a special menu for our anniversary but all ended there . The food has lost much of its taste and quality not sure why ?

But I guess what had me most taken aback where no masks used at all by waiters none at all... I was very nervous since Delta is running rapid still in Miami ... Many of us still would like our waiters to at least wear masks... I did not leave because it was our anniversary but I was truly uncomfortable... read more

I was so excited to come here because I have seen such great things on Instagram of this place, but the food did not meet my expectations.
