"I'm sure you have heard of the expression dinner and a movie right? Well, how about dinner and a language lesson?Deciding to give myself an early birthday treat after a long couple of weeks, I decided to try Ararat for dinner. While they have a few outside tables, their highlight is the formal inside dining room (get reservations!) as well as the bar where I sat. The dining room has a dimly lit, classy romantic vibe. At least Friday nights, there's also a live cover band serenading the crowd with a mix of Russian, Armenian and 80s/90s US ballads. The bar seats were plush and comfortable too.Coming from casual Friday at the office, I was a little more casual. My next visit I will definitely go a little better dressed.Speaking of the bar, my server was my teacher, as she gave me the opportunity to order in Russian. All the dishes I tried were "mnogo vkuzno" Very delicious! I started with the Khinkali Dumplings, delicious pockets of pasta filled with a nicely spicy minced beef & pork with a yummy kick from the coriander and fresh black pepper. My main was a tasty and well presented Chicken Tapaka - similar to rotisserie chicken - in a cast iron pan & garnished with red onions and pomegranate and a dipping dish of a red sauce. The side of jasmine rice had good texture to accompany my meat dish. A fluffy Napoleon with creamy filling, powdered sugar and a fresh berry made for a sweet closing of my dinner."
"I had lunch here yesterday, we live close by and wanted to finally see what the vibe and the food was like. The waitress was super lovely and knowledgeable about the menu. She explained to us the concept , the dishes, she also brought some water out for our dog and a fan bc we sat outside. I thought that was excellent attention to detail and customer service! I believe her name is Andrea. For the food we got the eggplant salad, my boyfriend got the skewers beef/lamb with veggies and I got the chicken skewers with fries and some cabbage that came with it. The eggplant salad was very refreshing and homey. It was great to combat the heat and the flavor was light but delicious ! We really enjoyed it. My boyfriend's skewers were very dry and okay tasting, his veggies had no seasoning or dressing. He didn't love what he ordered unfortunately. My chicken was the highlight show stopper, it was chicken thighs which I love!! So juicy so flavorful!! My fries were cold unfortunately and the cabbage on my plate was also seasonless and had no dressing. I didn't mind too much bc I put the eggplant salad on it and it became flavorful instantly. We were a bit shocked to walk inside and see the refrigerators empty it was a bit strange. The waitress explained to us they are opening the deli side in a few weeks. I would highly recommend the chicken and the eggplant salad, Can't wait to be back when all of it is open!"

Visit Restaurant Page"A very posh but beautiful setting right on the beach. This was one of those restaurants that we just happened to stumble upon while walking on the path. We wanted to get a drink and a little bite to eat so we hopped in and we're seated right away. There was a person who brought us our waters. Unfortunately it was hot out and we kept drinking them pretty fast but it took them a little bit of time to refill them. That was one of the things that knocked them down a star was that they were not super attentive to refills. When they would come fill our waters , sometimes they would only fill one or two and then leave the rest of our table with empty glasses . The food was decent we just got little dishes. A drink each and three food dishes cost us 200 dollars. So it definitely wasn't a cheap stop in. But the atmosphere was really nice."
"Defrickenlicious decision to eat here. Great food, awesome service, and the owner is super fun & down to earth. They pay close attention to custom orders and allergies THANK YOU HABIBI! Shukran Definitely come check this place out as you cruise the 79th Street Corridor and 79th St Causeway from Miami through North Bay Village on your way to and from Miami Beach."
"Motek was better than anticipated.The first time we had Motek in Aventura was last year and we were thoroughly impressed with the service, ambience, and food. Our server last time was Hugo and he was on top of everything and so wonderful. Very accommodating as well. We got the Shakshuka and avocado toast last time. Both were divine. I must say the Shakshuka here is the best I've ever had. It had so much flavor and the challah was amazing. We sat outdoors and it was so beautiful out at the time. The patio is always busy.This time, we decided to sit indoors as it was way too hot and humid to sit outside. Our server was David and he was great. We ordered a few different items, including the chicken Shawarma platter, spicy salmon ceviche and fennel pomegranate salad. I saw photos of the chicken Shawarma and opted to try that. So happy we did because it was bomb! I loved that they cut the chicken into small bite-size pieces. The hummus was super smooth and creamy and fresh. The side salad was refreshing. I wish they gave more bread to dip with the hummus and for eating with the Shawarma. We only got one thin piece of naan underneath the chicken and we should've asked for more.The spicy salmon ceviche was on point! I'm so happy we decided to try that. I loved the added texture of bell peppers and other flavors in there. It didn't just taste like citrus but it had a punch of spice and good flavor all in all. Same with the ceviche dish, I wish they provided more bread to eat with the ceviche. The fennel pomegranate salad was also good and refreshing, but we were so full that we didn't get to finish it. I tried to pack the remaining salad, but it kept leaking so eventually I ended up tossing it, which seemed like a waste because I would have loved to finish the leftover later.I would highly recommend as it's a whole vibe here. We love Mediterranean food in general and this is always a good experience thus far. Check it out if you get a chance. They have a new location opening soon in south Miami. Motek is taking over the old Prime Fish location.Love me some Motek! Thanks for great experiences on both visits. I'm seriously impressed."
"We met friends from the Midwest who were visiting family in south Florida. They are kosher. This wasn't our usual choice for us of dining venues, but we do like mediterranean cuisine, so we felt it was a promising option. In addition, it was a restaurant that none of us had been to before. We were familiar with the shopping center as many years ago there was both a sushi restaurant and Chinese restaurant that we used to frequent here. There's plenty of parking in the lots nearby although it is a busy corner.The restaurant is small. Our server had just started working there so she was quite careful in taking our order and had to check the answers to our questions. Even though the service wasn't perfect (she didn't bring a few extra items we'd asked for -- like salad dressing, etc.), we knew she was trying. Our friends started out with a hummus appetizer. It came with pita bread. The hummus was quite good. It was topped with some whole chickpeas and oil. It was a large enough of a serving to share. After that, they both had the (vegetarian) vegetable soup which came with a large amount of couscous. They added some of the couscous to the soup. The coucous was served in a decorative tagine. I had their chicken schnitzel salad. This was a piece of battered chicken breast deep fried and cut into pieces on top of an Israeli salad. My husband had their shakshuka dish. This had three eggs cooked in the tomato sauce. Both portions were quite large. The eggs were cooked a bit more than my husband would have liked, but he still enjoyed the dish. To drink, we shared a pot of very good mint tea. It was large enough for quite a few glasses each.For dessert, our friends had a piece of baklava. And we tried their knafeh. It is one of my husband's favorite desserts as it is not overly sweet. It was a tad overcooked, as the filo was a bit too browned, but still quite good. We are glad we had the opportunity to try this restaurant. And yes, we would come back here again -- even without our kosher friends."
"A couple of days back I went to lunch here with some coworkers who do not believe in taking pictures of food and such. I enjoyed it then, and this came back by myself recently. Aladdin Mediterranean consists of both an Arabic grocery store /bodega, as well as a few tables for sit down meal . There's a TV on the wall streaming middle eastern music and variety shows. The very friendly and personable owner greets you and attends to you himself. During both visits, of course, I satisfied my sweet tooth with their flaky yummy pistachio and almond baklava. Whether you enjoy it right on your meal, or to take it later to eat at the office, this is a must.My most recent lunch was both their chicken and hummus lunch plate & a bowl of vegan red lentils. The chicken was well seasoned and a good portion for lunch while the bed of hummus had a great nutty taste and a mild touch of heat from I believe red peppers. Along with my soup, it was great for mixing with the fresh pita bread served. As mentioned with the bodega component, there are plenty of goods for purchase including various type of olives, pastries and dates among other halal products. I would definitely recommend!"
"This was my first visit to The Greek Joint. I turned to Yelp, of course, when the restaurant one street over was completely booked. I love Greek food, so It was worth a try! The staff was friendly and very attentive, from the first moment until the end. The food was very good, and the prices on par with other restaurants in the area, but maybe slightly higher than expected compared to other Greek restaurants. The dip Platter was a great starter, I loved the spicy fetta spread the best. The stuffed grape leaves were really good, but not what we were expecting. They were warm with a combination of rice and meat, topped with a creamy lemon sauce. My husband had the gyro, sorry he didn't let me get a pic before he tore into it. It was filled with meat, tomatoes, onion, and a healthy serving of tzatziki. His fries were thick and crispy; it also came with a small side salad. I chose 2 separate items rather than an entree. The Spanokopita was tasty with the flaky filo and plenty of spinach filling. My salad was huge, but not what I expected, as there was not your typical lettuce base, which is what I was looking for. It was good, but again, not as expected. I think more details on the menu would be helpful, especially for items that may be different from the norm. We skipped dessert as the items listed weren't typical Greek desserts, which was a bit disappointing, but we were full anyway. I would definitely return though, especially for a casual lunch."
"In town for SOBE we found Redwood thru YELP. Redwood is a neat restaurant with a mix of traditional seating and home style from your house with even a breakout area with lounge chairs. The restaurant lighting is soft, and the bar area is attractive and intimate. We arrived at 6pm and met the chef/owner and were further in luck as tonight the restaurant offered live music - acoustic guitarMy wife and I shared the ceviche which was flavorful and refreshing with the proper amount of acid and came with homemade chips - delicious. For mains my wife had the linguine von gole , it was good but could have used more clams and the ones it was served with were slighlty overcooked. I ordered the flat bread marguerita with grill chicken as an additional throw on. The pizza size was perfect and the flavor was goodOverall a great environment to meet with friends and enjoy dinner next time I will try a chef special."

I had the absolute pleasure of dining at Ararat Bar and Grill last weekend and, let me tell you, it was an unforgettable experience!From the moment we stepped into Ararat, the warm, inviting atmosphere set the tone for the evening. The decor, with its tasteful combination of modern and traditional elements, creates a cozy and comfortable ambiance that's just right - not too casual, but also not overly formal.The menu is a delightful fusion of traditional and contemporary dishes, and it's evident that the chef has put an incredible amount of thought into each item. We started with the eggplant rolls and lachmacu, which was a vibrant array of flavors and textures. For the main course, we had the kebab. Kebab was perfect, the appetizers were not memorable. The standout of the evening, however, was the impeccable service. The staff at Ararat were attentive and friendly, without being intrusive. They made excellent recommendations and seemed genuinely passionate about ensuring we had a great dining experience.And let's not forget the bar: it's well-stocked with an impressive selection of wines and craft beers, and the cocktails are simply out of this world.If you're looking for a place to have a great meal, relax, and be treated like a valued guest, Ararat Bar and Grill should be at the top of your list. It's a gem that truly encapsulates the essence of fine dining and warm hospitality. Can't wait to return for another round!

The restaurant is literally less than 20 feet away from the beach, so the views are just gorgeous overlooking the ocean/sand. Plus the energy/atmosphere of the restaurant is on point as well.Their staff is incredibly friendly, and our server today, Steven, took excellent care of us.As for the food, it was solid. The burger was good, the fries were spectacular, and the Greek sampler with veggies and hummus was good too. The turkey club was just alright. Overall, five stars for the views, atmosphere & excellent service! Definitely recommend eating here.

I have been looking for authentic North African/Middle Eastern cuisine in Miami and Habibi Kush offers this! This could be tasted even in the good quality olive oil which is hard to find. Service here was also wonderful with a kind and personable staff and owner. The ambiance is also nice with a bar, indoor dining and outdoor patio area. I can't wait to be back!

I had been hearing about Motek from a few friends whose food judgments I trust. So when I finally went on a double date I was thrilled to see what the rave was all about. I love Mediterranean food as is but Motek really did pleasantly surprise me and leave me wanting more. It's located in Aventura mall, the outside area and it has a very cute design and ambiance to it. You can go dressed up or down, whatever you prefer. The staff was kind and friendly. Our waiter helped with our selection. We got a lot of items to try out. I was told the hummus was a MUST and I concur, the hummus is a MUST! The babaganoush was great as well. For my entree I ordered the Arayes burger which was voted best burger and I can totally see why. Very juicy and flavorful. The chicken shawarma was delicious as well. All the food tasted fresh. I will be back here again!
Visit Restaurant Page"This is our friend group's all time favorite restaurant in the Miami area. It's gorgeous... the outdoor covered patio/ garden area is lovely. The food is healthy and it tastes insanely good. Bring an empty stomach bc it's very hard to stop eating! The servers are extremely knowledgeable about the menu and don't mind helping out. I love that!"
"Came here for a friend's surprise birthday and oh boy was he reeeeally surprised!!The table started off with seating 12 people but last minute the party grew to 16. They were very accommodating and patient with the shifting of seats. Staff is super friendly and professional, and although it seems like a small restaurant, it feels bigger and open due to the white walls, murals and portraits of Greece, and big windows. For an establishment that has been around for 50 years, it still looks very enchanting and feels like you're actually in Greece for a moment!The host ordered an array of appetizers, so I got to try the traditional Greek salad, the fried cheese, grilled chicken, pita with hummus, tzatziki, and I want to say the third dip was babaganoush but I could be wrong and think it tastes similar. Afterwards, we were free to order more food so my husband and I shared the lamb skewers (hidden in the sides section of the menu) and Greek sausage. Both were heavenly delicious and packed with flavor! The lamb by itself was already juicy and flavorful, but the owner recommended to have it with tzatziki sauce and it was the cherry on top!This experience was delicious and authentic, we'd definitely come again!"
"On a recent work trip in Miami, a few of us and some clients decided to try out this place. We decided to do family style and share a little bit of everything. The restaurant was a bit small but still had a decent amount of seats and we were able to get a table relatively quickly. Our server was very nice and gave us different suggestions on what to get/what's good to share.Everything we had was delicious and was so flavorful. I've never been a huge Mediterranean fan but I loved everything there. I highly recommend it and could see myself coming back !"
"We ordered takeout for the first time and it was excellent!We originally were going to dine in, but we were on a time crunch to go home so we popped in and ordered our meal to go.We came on a Monday night and were greeted right away. We were escorted to the bar and the hostess/server gave us a few minutes to peruse the menu. She suggested the Ferdo Special Platter to share which came with a little bit of everything; protein, rice, salad and hummus along with garlic sauce. We also ordered a side of French fries. While we waited, we enjoyed a glass of delicious Lebanese wine. Our food came out shortly after finishing our wines and we were on our way. With our short time there, the service was great and we'll definitely be back to dine in.When we get home, our food was packaged nicely and it was alllll delicious! The meats were cooked to perfection and she even gave us extra pita to enjoy. All of the flavors were fresh and plentiful and we ate the whole thing. A new Mediterranean spot to add to our rotation!"
"Unbelievable authentic restaurant here in Soflo; may be my new favorite in Broward period. I've been here twice since opening and everything is outstanding. The service is amazing, quick, attentive, and friendly. The vibes are 100%, with great decor and energy. The owner/chef was there making sure everything runs smoothly, and is just as friendly. The food is insane!! We ordered multiple starters and nothing was less than perfect. The Israel Mezza gave us a small variety of starters: hummus, homemade pickles, bread, and salads. Everything was flavorful and fresh. We also had the Brussels sprouts and eggplant (not pictured) and they were just as good. The main courses were even better. The chicken tajine and some of the best couscous I've ever had. You can tell it's 100% homemade. The chicken was tender and was packed with flavor too. The harrais was juicy and had a hint of sweetness. Not pictured are the lamb tajine, salmon, and kofta kebab that held up to the other mains too. The desserts here are all dairy free and you can't even tell! We had the dessert of the day, a banana bread pudding, and it was one of the best I've ever had. Nothing was lacking! TLDR: you have to come here for authentic middle eastern food with excellent vibes and energy."
"Is it Greek? Is it Italian? It's delicious! Great selection of Italian and Greek food topped with great food and good portions. The place can get loud and hot if it's packed. And getting a table can be tricky so make sure you make a reservation, specially if you are trying to go on busy weekends. Service was very good and the food was brought out in a timely manner. The lentil soup was delicious and the Quattro formaggi gnocchi was exactly as I remember from Il Villagio which apparently has become part of this restaurant. Pricey but worth it!"
"I recently discovered Aba Miami in Bal Harbour, and it's quickly become an obsession.Whether you're looking to treat yourself after a shopping spree, plan a romantic date night, or gather with a group of friends, Aba is the perfect spot for literally every occasion. First off, the restaurant is absolutely stunning. The Mediterranean-inspired decor creates an intimate and inviting ambiance that makes every visit feel special. Having dined here three times, I can confidently say the service is consistently top-notch. The staff is attentive, charming, and extremely knowledgeable about the menu.Now, let's talk about the food--the true star of the experience. Every dish I've tried has been outstanding, but the appetizers wow me every time. The muhammara is a MUST-TRY it's easily one of the best I've ever had. Their lunch specials, like the falafel sandwich, are also great option. And don't even get me started on the desserts--they're nothing short of showstopping."
"I dined at Crazy About You twice while visiting Miami. That never happens when I'm on vacation, which shows how much I liked the restaurant. I wasn't able to get a table because they were booked on both nights, so I sat at the bar outside. The view outside is magnificent at night, so it was actually the perfect spot to sit in the restaurant.The first night, I had the Black Truffle Linguine. It was delicious!! The entree also came with a side, so I tried the Smoked Mahi Mahi Dip.The second night, I had the Wagyu Double Cheeseburger. It tasted great, and I recommend it also.By the way, the drinks here are awesome!"
"When you first walk in,you are taken back by the light, airy, and beautiful ambiance of the restaurant. Our server was very friendly and provided us with her favorite items on the menu. The kale salad was very light, refreshing, and filling. But the star of our meal was the Keylime sorbet, it was so tart and had just the right amount of sweetness."
"Lira Beirut Eatery has become my absolute favorite dining spot in the area, and for good reason. With its incredible flavor profiles and unique dishes, each visit is a culinary adventure. I've had the pleasure of dining here multiple times, and I'm consistently impressed by the quality and consistency of the food. From their signature dishes to daily specials, every bite is a burst of authentic Lebanese flavors that keep me coming back for more.What sets Lira Beirut Eatery apart is not just its exceptional cuisine, but also the warm and welcoming atmosphere created by the friendly staff. Their hospitality truly enhances the dining experience and makes each visit memorable.The restaurant itself is cozy and intimate, which adds to its charm, but it does mean that space is limited. I highly recommend making a reservation to secure your spot, especially during peak hours.Overall, Lira Beirut Eatery is a one-of-a-kind gem in the neighborhood, offering delicious food, excellent service, and a cozy ambiance. Whether you're a fan of Lebanese cuisine or simply looking for a memorable dining experience, this place comes highly recommended."
"At the risk of sounding like Gordon Gecko or Milton Friedman, Supply and Demand baby...Sultan has been open on Collins Avenue since I might have needed an enhanced ID to enjoy nightlife. This is a cozy spot with a few inside and outside tables next to one of the classic clubs on the beach. If not 24 hour, they are open pretty late. So yes, they're going to be pricey.Though not in a clubbing day, I stopped Friday night after cocktails nearby, needing some sustenance, and enjoyed their chicken kabob platter with fries and hummus. The chicken was pretty juicy and the fries crispy. My hummus could have been a little richer and / or seasoned like my usual Mediterranean spot but no biggie. Make sure to save space for their baklava in I believe a honey sauce. It's slightly flaky and with a good balanced sweetness. Perfect to complete your recovery dinner!"
"Such a pretty rooftop restaurant in a cool artsy area. We came here with a big bachelorette party and loved the ambiance, food, and service. It was kind of fun to have a photographer come around and take pictures of us (that they then tried to sell to us afterwards) too. We started with some bottles of white and saganaki cheese, ahi tuna, ceviche for appetizers. Everything was delicious! For our entrees we shared the lobster pasta, grilled salmon, burrata salad, short rib, and another salad on the menu. Everything was divine- my favorite was the lobster pasta. Portions were huge too so it was great to share and try everything."
"Very nice ambiance, good was tasty. Service was pretty good too. We ordered a couple things to share (mostly appetizers) and a chicken kebab to try. The chicken was very good- juicy and flavorful. The kibbeh was good, not too dry like the usual Kinney ive eaten! I also liked the sauce beneath it. We got the meat and zaatar manoush (although the picture shows cheese the waitress kindly changed for us). The zaatar and meat one were very good. The baba ghanoush was good and so was the nabulsi salad!Overall it was a great time, if I really had one thing to comment on would be that an a period spritz was kinda pricey at $20 each. Will be back!"
"The food is good, the ambiance beautiful, but the service leaves a bit to be desired. Our server was very grouchy and kept trying to push us toward more expensive items, more expensive wine and even switched an app to a much more expensive entree. I called the manager the day after when I took a closer look at the bill and she was able to adjust for the sneaky upcharges. Took forever to get our wine. The food was delicious, everything from the zucchini and eggplant chips to the fish, but the prices are a bit outrageous. You're paying for the location after all. I did not like the baklava for dessert, it was tough as a rock (not soft and flaky like it should be) and did not taste like any baklava I've ever had. All in all, we probably would have had a much nicer experience here if it hadn't been for our unpleasant waiter. It was three of us (elegantly dressed middle aged ladies celebrating our friend's 50th birthday) and he single handedly ruined the mood and the evening for us. What a shame."
"Y'all know that since Cosmic Gate released "Exploration of Space" the Full Moon on the beach is fixed on my social calendar. Although usually I go to the regular Full Moon party a little further north, a close friend who lives in the area told me about the dinner party at The Strand for Full Moon night. While there's an indoor dining room, we chose to enjoy the sunset vibe and live music outside on the ocean view terrace. We started with a couple of fruity yet strong cocktail specials they had for their lunar dinner. My impression is they were tropical variations on an old fashioned (mine) and martini (hers), with mixers such as egg white creme & blueberries. The bartender did a great job mixing, as they well blended. For dinner, we shared both their Truffle & Prosciutto, as well as a Strawberry Burratini salad. The prosciutto on the pie was generously portioned, thinly sliced, fresh kale & perfectly aromatic truffles. A creamy ball of straciatella cheese over a bed of kale, sliced strawberries & crunchy walnuts made our salad. Both dishes were light, healthy but tasty.James, our server, and his team were pleasant and attentive with bringing our courses and recommendations. I'd definitely recommend this spot for a pleasantly casual dinner."
"I typically stop in Mau for cocktails and maybe a bar bite because I love the ambiance and staff here. I had to opportunity to have some of my girls who were in town to meet me here for dinner and we had a time and everyone enjoyed their food. The music by DJ Epps was a vibe. Lena checked in making sure that we were having a great time and everything was good. The hookah was nice and smooth. It was overall a good experience that my girls enjoyed."
"While heading to the convention, I stumbled upon a charming little shop that beckoned me in for breakfast. The highlight? The best simit I've had in the country--warm, golden, and perfect.I couldn't resist returning for dinner, sitting outside under the evening sky. Our friendly server recommended the Turkish lahmacun, and we ordered soup, salad, and that delicious flatbread. Every bite was spot-on, with impeccable service to match.We ended the meal with a kunefe, a sweet, savory treat that wrapped up a delightful Turkish dining experience in this cozy spot."
"I really enjoyed my time here with friends. We noticed this place after dining recently next door at a nice Italian restaurant. This restaurant has gorgeous decor - see my pictures as proof. The service was friendly and sweet. They have printed menus which show pictures of their dishes - which I always appreciate. Food for me is VISUAL, as well as the taste. It makes it easier to order as you know what you are technically getting. To be noted my food looked exactly as the photos depicted.They have a lovely outside deck area - which overlooks the canal there. Whilst there we saw fish, ducks and skiers. Such a pleasant spot.I sampled their rosewater and lemon lemonade - which was very pleasant. I also tried their vegetarian platter - which offers a nice introduction. I recommend this place and will most definitely come back."
"Over the past few years it feels like we are getting more Basque restaurants in Miami. I've had great experience with them, so I look forward to trying Zeru for the first time for Miami Spice. The dining room is beautifully decorated, with a high ceiling. I love how there is a little "tree" by each table for people to hang their coats or bags. I wish every restuarant is so considerate!! Besides the three courses on the Spice menu, I was also given an amuse-bouche and some welcome pintxos: a mussel croquette, a pata negra and parmesan croquette, and a mini tomato and serrano ham toast.I have the txangurro for appetizer, which is a crab meat spread, and for my entree the seafood socarrat. The txangurro, while loaded with crab meat, tastes blander than I expected, somehow missing the rich, creamy tomalley that I am used to tasting in other txangurro I've tried before. The seafood, especially the shrimp on the socarrat, was excellent. Shrimp is one ingredient where there's a vast difference between the good and the bad, and this big juicy ones, nicely grilled, is definitely among the best. While I expect the socarrat to be more charred and crispy, like the Persian tahdig or Korean stone pot rice, overall the dish is so delicious I'd love to return for it. It also goes very well with a glass of crispy white.The catalan cream for dessert is light and fluffy, not too sweet.The service is very efficient. There seems to be a team of waiters. As soon as you finish a dish, someone will come and pick up the dishes. Then another will come by to replace the silverware, and then within minutes your next course is brought to you. There is limited street parking available, or you can valet or park in nearby garages."
"How gorgeous does this spread look??? If only you can scratch & sniff!! Their shakshuka was so good, along with the rest of the items on this table that we came back 2 days in a row!!! Their morning breakfast scramble came with the dips & bread as u see. We added their delicious french toast & Americanos. It's family owned, take you in like you're a part of their family and serve you the freshest ingredients available. Can't wait to go back to Miami so I can visit them again!"
"Ohana is great, and not just because they're my local sushi joint. They have fun and creative rolls with generous portions, and if you have an eagle eye you can spot a coupon once a month in your local mailer that makes them a really solid deal. Their lunch happy hour is one of the best deals and meals in Kendall. You get a full size specialty roll of choosing from nearly any on the regular menu, a choice of salad (wakame or wakame special), choice of soup, and an appetizer. They also do a decent happy hour with some great food specials, but I haven't had a chance to try it. Personal faves: Ike roll, Waku roll, Tuna tacos, and the Yuzu salad."
