We stayed at W Miami Beach and decided to try to available options at the hotel. The restaurant was empty when we entered. It felt like I bought the place out for the night. Our server was awesome. I looked at the menu on Open Table and decided I'd get the charcuterie board for starts. When I looked over the menu at the restaurant, it wasn't there. Our server asked the chef and they provided a very nice board. I also hoped for a beer I saw on the Open Table menu, La Fin Du Monde, that also was not available. Ok, I guess I'll have a Lagunita. On to the food, I ordered the slow-cooked short ribs. Slow-cooked short ribs have to be juicy and tender. Well, it was tender but tasted like chalk. They provided what I expected was a sauce for the short ribs. It seemed like straight soy sauce. I thought I needed a high blood pressure pill! Needless to say, I didn't eat the plate. The staff did notice my displeasure and took my plate off the bill. So, that was very nice of them. I'd go back ), but try something different. Thanks to our server again. I forget her name but she helped to salvage the night.

From the appetizers through desert, beautiful presentation, service, and palate. I simply love the way this chef seasons his food. Tried a different entre tonight. I had the Wild Mushroom Tagliolini. The use of the black truffle accentuates this dish, but it is not overbearing. One of the best if not best in town.

The food and the service were amazing! Really cute spot with great ambience. The highlights for us were definitely the tuna tartare, steak, pulpo, & manchego croquetas. And don’t skip the tres leches with key lime merengue for dessert — delicious and very unique!
