Giselle Miami

We came for Miami Spice!!! Nathan was our waiter and is AMAZING! Enjoyed our time here. Place is beautiful and DJ is playing good music. Their Miami Spice menu definitely FILLS you up. Again Nathan was great- he knew the menu like the back of his hand, and makes great recommendations.

Food is great and the show is really nice!If you are sitting at te tables as not the bar - it's a $150 min per person. My waiter must have been new because he kept coming up me suggesting the most expensive things as if we weren't gonna spend there. I told him to relax .

This place is so cute! The decor is fun, the music and the dancers are great, and the servers and bartenders are amazing - they are so sweet and add to the fun vibe themselves. I really recommend this place for drinks! I got an espresso martini with tequila. It's also at a nice location next to club space. It was raining so they didn't open the outside part up, but that looked like it would have been very cute as well and seems like it would be a nice spot to take pictures at as well.The reason I would give 4 out of 5 stars instead of all 5, however, is because I wasn't really impressed by the food at all. The steak and wagyu dumplings were very mediocre and everything on the menu is quite expensive. I don't mind spending for a great dinner, but I expected a bit better in terms of the quality of the food. The lamb chops did come out looking pretty cool with smoke and everything and would be fun to take a video of to post on social media. The truffle fries were quite good though, and came out in this glass goblet, but again, expensive for fries. I would definitely return for drinks and the show, but I doubt I would eat here again. However, it's a fun vibe and I like that it's got a girly, classy touch that suits the feminine name and the pink signs and lighting. It would be nice to start a night out at Giselle!

GISELLE NEVER AGAIN. I am reminded why I value Yelp in these (awful) situations, because understanding "what you are getting into" from others' experiences is important - especially if you're looking for a special night out to celebrate birthdays.Prior to going to Giselle I had been chatting with Miami locals about it and across the board the feedback was "not worth the vibe, too many other good places" (followed by a long list of them naming other places).We thought we'd try it anyway, it's VERY convenient if you're spending your evening (or in our case, into the wee hours) at E11VEN next door, but the location and the nice decor are it's only pros.There are lots of words below, but if you want just two words to describe the entire experience it would be MIAMI PRETENTIOUSNESS.We were seated as a table of 8 and as soon as we sat down, our waiter starting SELLING US on dishes and cocktails. I'm used to dining in NYC and SF where I lived for over 15 years and just finished reading Unreasonable Hospitality, and this experience was... well, exactly the opposite of that! Want to ask if anyone has food restrictions? No. Want to ask how many are dining, how hungry we are? No. If we're sharing dishes and doing family style? No. Just sell us on the most expensive dishes.It was the most unnatural and unpleasant hospitality that we even asked the (very kind) bus boy, WTF IS GOING ON HERE?! IS HE ALWAYS LIKE THAT?! Which he responded exactly the way we expected him to (which is, um yes, it's always that weird but he's not allowed to say that). We ordered drinks, I wasn't surprised I was given an empty white wine glass because the waiter didn't realize that a cremant is served in a flute and not via a poured carafe. Not a big deal, but if you know all the items to sell someone, you should know the wine list.We were not made aware of the "weekend minimum" ($150 per person) until the second round of "selling us on dishes presentation" happened. I didn't make the reservation, so I recommend reading all fine print if you are considering dining here. Some of us wanted to dine, the rest were happy to hit a $150 minimum per person on just drinks, but this answer did NOT please the wait staff who wanted to talk to management about us.We were literally SO TURNED OFF by the waiter wen just asked to close the bill. It was a lot of waiting around and just being ignored in the end. I totally wanted a second drink, but ... I couldn't figure out if I should go to the bar for that and then bring it back to my table. I was too scared of getting scolded by our waiter.When people talk about the pretentiousness of Miami, at the top of that list for me is Giselle. I just wanted to tell our server Andrew "can't we just have a chat like REAL human beings?" Then we can understand how we can enjoy this establishment and NOT have to uber elsewhere then uber BACK to go to E11VEN (where we had a very epic night.. or morning.. depending on how you look at it).I already know when people ask me where I recommend in Miami, before I list off all the places I love, I will FIRST give them a warning "no matter how many stars you see on yelp, don't go to Giselle."

Happy Hour looked a little different this time around. We enjoyed the service and the ambiance . I didn't take a picture of the menu but it's pretty good . The prices are decent.

Loved the wagu dumplings. They were full of savory flavor and we definitely should have stuck to trying their appetizers vs ordering entrees. We were disappointed that the flaming Australian Wagu Tomahawk was not worth the price. I have had better tomahawks for cheaper prices. The Mac and cheese that everyone rants and raves about wasn't for it for us. Their drinks were great. Service was great. Really loved the restaurants decor and lighting. I'm not sure that I would go back because the food didn't hit the spot.

I thought this place would be all aesthetics & no flavor! That it would be overpriced & overhyped.. Boy was I WRONG!!!!! THANK GOODNESS I was wrong!!!!! This restaurant is truly a CULINARY EXPERIENCE! Each dish is plated beautifully & all the ingredients are high quality. Our server was also extremely helpful & welcoming! I truly don't have any complaints. I loved EVERYTHING- I was constantly amazed every time something new came out. Worth every penny. I can't wait to return!

Such a gorgeous and fun spot. I always have a blast at Giselle! Amazing food, service, and ambiance. I highly recommend

I recently dined at Giselle Miami, and I can't say enough about the exceptional service I received from both Maria, the sous chef, and Nathan, our server. From start to finish, everything was perfect.Maria's attention to detail in the kitchen truly shined through in every dish. The flavors were vibrant, beautifully plated, and clearly made with passion and care. You could tell that she puts her heart into her work, and it made the meal an unforgettable experience.Nathan, on the other hand, went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. He was attentive without being overbearing, knowledgeable about the menu, and made excellent recommendations. His friendly demeanor and professionalism added so much to the overall experience.If you're looking for top-tier service and incredible food, I highly recommend Giselle Miami. Maria and Nathan are true gems, and they made my night one to remember!

I have so much to say about a amazing experience I recently had at Giselle Miami. We made a reservation a few weeks ago. With high expectations. And the team at Giselle made our night. We started at the bar and got a drink called timeless old fashion. About 10 min a nice hostess sat us at our table. Our server was Andrew. Friendly, knowledgeable and kind. Even joked and called him Andy. Which he didn't mind. The food was great. Service was impeccable. Thank you Giselle
