PINECREST Location 9559 S Dixie Hwy Pinecrest, FL 33156…read moreWe visited this place today for the first time. The food was very tasty. The meat servers were so attentive and sweet. The hostess and waitress were unbelievably kind. The owner / manager was so delightful to speak with. Ok so normally I would not complain, but the music was uncomfortably loud. Other than the music being so loud we absolutely recommend this place hands down.

We Tried this new place for us last night and the bartender completely ruined the experience. He…read morewas extremely rude. From the moment we sat down, the guy looked annoyed that we were there. Zero greeting, zero eye contact. We waited almost 10 minutes just to get acknowledged while he was chatting with another customers at the other end of the bar. When he finally took our order, he barely listened. I asked for a classic Old Fashioned and he brought me something that tasted like watered-down whiskey with too much bitters and a random orange slice thrown in. My friend's whiskey sour was unbalanced -- definitely not worth the $18 price tag. I politely mentioned to recommend us another drinks options he just shrugged and said "we don't have that" Not offer another choice or an apology. The drinks were mediocre at best, but his attitude made it worse. He ignored us most of the night and acted annoyed every time we ordered. Zero professionalism. The place has a great vibe but with service like this, is not worth to spend almost $200 dollars there for few drinks. I don't remember his name but he was tall, Latin and maybe from Colombia. We just wanted to report his behavior to management but in a Saturday's night you just don't want to ruined more. Next.

I came here with a friend after a nearby event. It was late at night, but let me tell you, this is…read morethe spot. It was my first time and it certainly won't be my last. So, let's get into it: I don't know about you, but the one thing I do not enjoy doing is driving and circling around, being lost, just to find an establishment. So, I love that this restaurant is so easy to find with good signage, lots of nearby parking, both street and lots. Anywho, once I parked, the manager Judd was so friendly and kind and directed me to the table where my friend was seated. He overheard that I was kind of speaking loud over the music when I barely had a voice due to losing it from another event, so he kindly turned down the music for us. Once there, service was quick and attentive. I got a Fresh Paloma for my drink and the Seared Salmon for dinner. The drink was a good size and tasted good, no complaints there. As for the dinner, WOW. This was delicious, I would get this again. The flavors were there and the portions were just perfect (not too much and not too little, I usually never get enough or leave with leftovers). Also, not overpriced for Miami in my opinion. Aside from that, I did try some of my friend's off-menu pasta and it was really yummy. Furthermore, they have great weekly specials: (Note, subject to change. Please check Instagram or call for Current Week): Tuesday: Burgers and Bottles, $10 Burgers and Half off Select Bottles of Wine Wednesday: Double Loyalty Points and Fire, Flour & Fizz ($12 Pizzas, $12 Aperol Spritz, $7 Prosecco, 5pm-close) Thursday Ladies Night: Complimentary Bubbly for Ladies 4pm-7pm Sunday: 10am-4pm Bloody Mary Bar Go check it out, I don't think you'll regret it.

All that really needs to be said is this: I've found my new favorite restaurant. Everything was…read moreexceptional -- the food, the drinks, and the service. We started with the charcuterie, which was such a fresh and unique take on a classic appetizer. You get to choose your own meats and cheeses, and it's served with truffle honey, pickles, bread, prunes, and Marcona almonds -- every bite was incredible. For my entrée, I ordered the churrasco. I usually go with medium rare, but this time I took our waitress's recommendation and ordered it medium. It was, without exaggeration, one of the best steaks I've ever had. It came with garlic purée, grilled onion, Maldon salt, and the most flavorful chimichurri. My husband had the t-bone and also enjoyed it. As a side, the French onion mashed potatoes are an absolute must. They were unreal. To finish, we had the lemon blueberry cheesecake with pistachio ice cream, and it was the perfect ending to the meal. Everything tasted fresh, thoughtfully prepared, and absolutely delicious. A special shoutout to our waitress, Cat, who was outstanding. She took the time to walk us through the menu, answered every question, and never made us feel rushed. You could genuinely tell she loves what she does, and it made the experience even better. I already can't wait to go back.

From the moment we walked in, everything felt intentional and elevated without being overdone. The atmosphere strikes that perfect balance between stylish and comfortable, making it just as great for a night out as it is for a more special occasion. The service was attentive, warm, and genuinely welcoming, which made the whole experience feel effortless. The food was outstanding. Every dish was beautifully presented and full of flavor, with a clear attention to detail in both ingredients and execution. You can tell there's real care behind the menu, not just in how it looks but in how everything comes together on the plate. Overall, it's the kind of place you leave already thinking about when you'll come back. Highly recommend.

At a time when large sports bars are everywhere, it is nice to get away at times and enjoy the comforts of these lounges, even if you are an non-smoker. Somehow the air may seem even cleaner than your average bar. Smoke & Narrel Cigar Lounge in downtown Dadeland has been trying to make a name for itself by hosting free spirit tasting every Wednesday night. What started with tasting of different brands of whiskey and burbon has now extended to tequila, rum, wine, and now Pisco. Every week, a representative from a spirit brand gives details about what makes their brand special, provides a brief explanation on the history and the distillation process, and you can taste different varieties of their spirit, all free of charge. I try not to miss these events as I find them informative and educational, and i also get to try brands that I may not be that familiar with. It is an experience that is worth an hour or two of my Wednesday nights

You can choose from a cozy ground-floor terrace, a lush indoor dining room, or the rooftop (Mamey on 3rd), perfect for happy hour with live music. The service was efficient and friendly, Ken took great care of us and made sure everything flowed smoothly. The menu has a great variety and everything is beautifully presented. I started with the sweet-sauce chicken wings, perfectly crispy and full of flavor, followed by a round of tacos, some with beef, others with chicken, fresh and well balanced. I also had the chance to shake things up with an espresso martini or known as RumWake. It had all those rich coffee aromas and an interesting twist from a banana nut texture. It was good, but I still prefer the classic version. Their mojito, which I usually don't enjoy, totally surprised me, bright mint notes toned down the sweetness just right. At Mamey, they call it the "Mint Condition," and it's definitely worth a conditional try. The one drink I liked the least was the Serata, essentially an Aperol spritz with Asian gin blended with Prosecco. It felt watered down and the flavors just didn't come together for me. Overall, Mamey delivers a unique "island-minded" experience that blends flavors from the Caribbean, Asia, and Latin America. Between the beautiful setting, creative menu, great cocktails (with a couple of misses), and attentive service, it's a spot I'd come back to for both casual nights and special occasions.
