Brit C I’ve been back here a couple times now on my travels to Miami. It’s always clean, attentive staff & has a great view of Miami’s South Beach city sky line. Beautiful pool & spacious. I’ve been served by Dahiana a few times now on my travels. She’s a great bartender & server. She’s always welcoming with a friendly smile. This place is good for all ages. Food is tasty too. And they even filmed part of Bad Boys here!

Boris Begun We came for “Italian night Wednesday”. The host and server were both friendly, and the chef came to greet us, and a second time to make sure we liked our food. It’s a very large place and was mostly empty - it’s just off the beaten path of 5th Ave. The food tasted just like the Italian food I make at home. It was good but nothing special. Above Olive Garden, below Tony’s Di Napoli. But for $21 for a salad and entree both of us were very happy and satisfied with our meals. Service was prompt and our waiter checked on us exactly the right amount. I felt taken care of but not rushed or hassled. The dessert was the highlight of the meal and was not part of the special. It was a key lime coconut concoction. The taste, presentation, and amount were fantastic. It had a bit of everything - some cinnamon crisps, some toasted coconut chunks, some fruit puree, some key lime foam. It was honestly fantastic and I’m glad we made the decision to try it. The patio had a nice vibe with some light jazz playing at a very reasonable level for ambiance. We were the only ones sitting outside. The bathroom was clean. They were out of two proteins which signals to me that chef orders conservatively and prioritizes the freshness of his food. Overall we enjoyed our meal and would return to try other “themed” specials and the main menu items as well.

Daniella Cuellar I visited this small spot in Hialeah and was impressed by how clean it is and how welcoming the service feels. I had the chicken milanesa and it was delicious, flavorful, generous portions, and very fair prices. Perfect for a quick and satisfying lunch. Definitely a place I’d come back to!

LoreKataoka An absolutely impeccable experience. The restaurant impresses from the very first moment: beautifully curated decor, an elegant and welcoming atmosphere, and a clear attention to every detail. Everything feels thoughtful, refined, and intentional. The food was excellent — well-balanced flavors, high-quality ingredients, and beautiful presentation. A truly well-executed Italian dining experience that delivers both comfort and sophistication. I would like to make a special mention of Amilcar, whose service was outstanding. Polite, attentive, and genuinely kind, he went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Upon learning that I am a Google Maps Local Guide, he graciously offered a complimentary panettone and dessert, all done with great discretion and professionalism. It was one of those rare dining experiences where both the cuisine and the human touch leave a lasting impression. Highly recommended. I will certainly be back.

Cindy Wingate What a hidden gem! Don’t let this one pass you by. It is located in the hotel and easy to access once inside the building. Beautiful atmosphere…wonderful staff like CHURCH will make sure that your visit is perfect. Will even make a drink not on the menu and have it taste better than ever. Love the presentation of the food and taste. Highly recommend….

Kristee Rodriguez We had an amazing night after our wedding! The room was beautiful and we slept really good. Then we came downstairs to redeem our breakfast voucher and when I tell you it was the best toast have ever had! Our server was Mylik and he was a pleasure to have served us! He was very professional, kind, and a big people’s person. It was great to chat with him and the food was perfect!!! My husband and I would definitely come again just for the food. I had a pumpkin spiced iced latte (sorry Starbucks and Dunkin, but they had y’all beat) with their Toast Francaise. Carlos had a cappuccino with a Full American Breakfast. The food was too Teir one as well as the presentation ! Thank you so much!
