Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Miami Shores

I enjoyed my Christmas dinner at Makoto. I was running a little late but when I arrived they were willing to sit me immediately. I had a reservation but wanted to sit at the bar. Antonio is amazing with customer service. When he wasn’t around the other bartender Michelle was checking in on me. Even when I appeared to need help, a Manager (Cindy) stopped and ask me did I need anything make my experience better. Happy Holidays!! I will be back to see them. Food: Crab baked Handroll - 10 out of 10! I had two. Chicken gyozas or potstickers (not sure) 9 out of 10 (I thought they would be fried) Rock Shrimp - 9 out of 10 (a dipping sauce will make them perfect) Chicken Ramen - 7 out of 10 (it’s good but somethings missing in the flavor) I’m just working my way through the menu but I will definitely be back. Again and Again!

Wonderful night for Noche Buena, excellent ambiance and service with Lucas. Great Latin specials with Chipa, Vitel Tone and a moqueca type dish. Delicious and great pricing. Hope to be back soon!

Another wonderful experience. We brough 2 nephews from out of town, and they were blown away by the food, service, attention to detail by the staff, and the show. We ate family style and were given adequate time between courses to enjoy our family. Then we topped off desert with the Bomb! This is a delicate outer shell of merengue, with fresh seasonal fruits and freshly whipped cream. Bravo! This restaurant has quickly become our go to place to eat especially when we have guests in town. Sharing this experience is on the top of our list.

Each dish was amazing and the service was top notch. Top dishes for me were foie gras mousse, A5 Wagyu, and gnocchi with truffle. Expensive but worth every dollar. We loved sitting at the counter but if you want a more typical dining experience ask for a table when you make reservation.

Have been here a few times when visiting our son t Barry University, fun, cool vibe, food is so delicious. My husband & I shared the 16 oz ribeye, with a salad. Delicious! Had the dirty artichoke appetizer & it was delightful. Wine was great as well. Definitely recommend!
