Best Casual Restaurants in Downtown Miami

I like the Hard Rock Cafe’s museum vibe. Even the restroom signs had fun rock-and-roll signage. I had a party of 15 to celebrate a 50-year anniversary so it was just nice to be able to sit and be together. Our seats were ready Before our reservation!! Food was good. Typical American cuisine and it tasted nice. I got the fajitas which I highly recommend. Drinks were fine. I got the lemonade and paid extra to bring home a souvenir. The signature lemonade was worth it especially since I don’t drink alcohol. Service was FANTASTIC! We bought the souvenir photos and then our server, Kim, was great! Kim made sure to double-check food allergies in the kitchen, she took our group photos, she helped adjust our drinks, brought out extra plates and extra waters, and super patient with all our questions. The wait time from ordering to service was longer than I like but we have such a big group that I don’t strike that against any restaurant. My only critique is the noise level of the ambient music… it felt like we had to shout to hear each other at our own table.

AMZING experience. From chef Johnnie to our waiter to the staff seating us. The food was beyond delicious. Lots of flavor lots of texture. Such a great place to be. Will absolutely be bringing more guest back. Could not speaking any more highly of the staff and food and experience. Food and dessert was delicious.

Great authentic food and fast pleasant service. We enjoyed the dinner on the pier.

From the moment you enter and see the funky, eclectic decor, you know that you're in a welcoming space. You'll be warmly greeted and seated. The menu offers enough plates to allow for a variety of palates, but few enough that allow them to be perfected. The homemade pasta dishes are always an excellent choice, the salads are fresh and the panini are lovely. If you love eggplant parmigiani, you're in luck. And the dessert menu is divine!

This was the kickoff to my luvs bday weekend. Came here to watch the football game and it turned out to be so much more fun. I would recommend this location specifically!
