    2nd time here in the same number of weeks. Food is fantastic, team is friendly and fun, and atmosphere is perfect for a downtown spot. Too many epic dishes to go over, but I will share pictures. If you’re looking for a place in downtown you haven’t been to, this should be the #1 place on your list, as all your friends will want to show their friends. Rooftop terrace is especially great, plus live DJ on some nights. Lastly, it’s just a 6 minute walk from MODE, the new hottest cocktail lounge (upstairs) + club (downstairs) in Miami. So perfect combination to take your date or friends there after a delicious meal. Howard

    We were in downtown for one night & went here for dinner. It was the best part of our stay in Miami. We were greeted warmly and sat quickly. I did have a reservation and would highly encourage one. It is a small venue with additional outside seating. Our server Dani was great! The entire staff provided exceptional service. They have a wide array of dishes to please even the pickiest eater. Everything we ate was beyond delicious. The food came out piping hot. We each had soup and a pasta. The pasta tasted as if made fresh. So good. If I'm ever back in Miami, I would definitely recommend.
