Nice and quiet!Food was excellent and the service was on point. We had the lobster tacos and the tuna tartare. Both were very tasty and fresh.

I came here on a Friday night to check out the Miami spice menu. The day before I looked online to booked a reservation for 7pm, but none were available, so I called to inquire about bar seating. The hostess, Marcia, cheerfully answered my questions and even made a reservation on my behalf. Upon arrival, Marcia greeted me by name and gave me options for seating. I chose a spot in the corner, which I regretted only because there wasn't much airflow in that area. My server was James and he was great. He provided honest and accurate recommendations. He was attentive, kind, and informed. The fabulously fizzy mocktail was delicious and refreshing! However, I believe it's a bit pricey for a drink without alcohol.The artichoke carpaccio was pretty tasty. I didn't know what to expect but I ate most of it. The white sauce was tasty and the granola added a good crunch. The SPICY PACCHERI ALLA VODKA was simple and good. I do think there could have been a little more flavor in the dish, but I still enjoyed it. The tiramisu was amazing! I'd definitely order that again. The ambience was cute and clean. I loved the sleek look and the distance between the tables. I enjoyed it so much I went to the bar after dinner to enjoy another fabulously fizzy mocktail. I wish they were open later, since they closed at 10 on a Friday. I will definitely return.

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.

What a wonderful evening under the full moon with a beautiful view of the water, wonderful entertainment, delicious cocktails, and food. This was my first time attending the full moon celebration here. I saw the email with the event info and decided to come try it out. It's a local place I come for lunch and now I'll be coming more for the full moon evenings! The music was great, he had a wonderful voice. The service was attentive and great!

Had a wonderful happy hour experience at The Strand. The small bites menu provided a variety of scrumptious options, one of which was arancini, which was the best I've ever had. I can't wait to go back for dinner and taste the other creations by Executive Chef Christopher Robertson, who came to our table to suggest food and drink pairings. This is an excellent spot in Miami Beach for a great culinary experience.

Treated my mom to a spa day for her birthday and we had lunch at The Strand. Food was delicious, the location had a great view. We ordered the burger and the lobster tacos, very very tasty. Service was a little slow for the volume of people that were there at the time, but nothing too bad.

The restaurant is located in the lobby of the hotel and has a chic and stylish atmosphere, perfect for lunch or dinner. I personally have stopped by for lunch a couple of times at this point. The food was definitely a highlight. Every dish we ordered was prepared well. The pizza and the crab salad were great! That being said, the menu though is well-balanced, offers only a mild variety of options, but everything we tried was tasty. Insider info (sort of): the restaurant has a separate space for the limited / exclusive dining experience, which receive the Micheline star recently... I am yet to try that. In addition to the good food, the place has an impressive selection of drinks. The cocktail menu is extensive (including mocktails).However, there was one downside...the beer we ordered was expired ... this was definitely strange, as I anticipated better quality control from a restaurant of this caliber.Another aspect to consider is the price. While the quality of the food and drinks was great, the prices are on the higher side. #bubblytip: Definitely try the "Strand Spritzer" or "Gym Tonic" for a not-so-alcoholic option!

Great lunch spot during our resort pass stay for the day! Definitely pricey, but it's an upscale hotel so this was expected. Everything tasted wonderful. James from Pensacola provided great service! We ate outside with the beautiful weather. Later in the day, we spent time at the bar inside for some mocktails. Beautiful presentation and absolutely delicious. Highly recommend!

The service was amazing! The staff was extremely welcoming and very helpful ensuring our experience was satisfactory. I went for happy hour which is 4 to 6 pm Sunday through Thursday. The food was phenomenal. We had Crispy polenta which was my absolute favorite, banana split, cheese pizza, smash burger with a delicious special sauce, arancini barolo, fingerling bravas wits saffron aioli, and oysters mignonette. The espresso martini was absolutely delicious too. The entire evening was perfect. Great company while sharing even more delicious food and drinks. I definitely recommend treating yourself and enjoying a drink (or two) with delicious food!
