Area 31

I really liked the place, food and drinks. By the time we were finishing our drinks, the security guy Daron said that we should leave. When we asked why, since we haven't finished our cocktails . He said that we could provide you with takeaway cups in a very rude manner. Worst service ever, they can not wait 10 minutes, after spending $500, and it was not even midnight. 😒 I will never turn back again.

Celebrated a birthday here. On 8/23 for a 7:15 reservation. Got there early and was allowed to sit right away. Amazing views. The every member of the FOH went above and beyond my expectations. From the host, to the server, to the server assistant, and the front manager! What an amazing team. The food equally good. Ordered apps, entrees, and dessert and all three courses were 10/10. Thank you for a wonderful night. Will be back soon.

Area 31 is one of the best restaurants in Miami. Spectacular views from the restaurant on the 16th floor of the Epic Hotel. They recently updated their menu with many new dishes with Turkish inspired flavors. Dinner: For appetizers, we had the tuna tataki, spicy tiger prawns, and ceviche. All of them were excellent. The tuna had a delicious ginger-soy sauce and the tiger prawns were to die for! Our favorite of the new entrees was the Asado. Perfectly cooked and the Korean bbq glaze gave it a sweetness that is unbeatable. The Spanish chicken was crispy and flavorful and the lamb chops were fantastic as well. The roasted eggplant and pepper topping that came with the lamb chops was a perfect complement to the meat. For a side, we had the cous & cheese - a take on Mac and cheese. Wow! It was delicious, finished with breadcrumbs on top for an extra crunch. The Nama Choco dessert was decadent and delicious. Perfectly sized chocolate bites paired with fresh berries and a berry sauce. Breakfast: the Smoked Salmon Pizzette was one of the best breakfast dishes I have ever had. The salmon was high quality and there is so much on the pita. The whipped cream cheese was also excellent. Another dish I highly recommend is the French toast. It is light and served with fresh berries! Overall an excellent experience - Seda and Pedro were excellent servers along with the rest of the staff. I highly recommend this restaurant if you’re in the area!

We had a wonderful experience at Area 31 at the Kimpton EPIC Hotel. The food was excellent. They were able to easily accommodated our gluten allergy. It was also fun walking around the pool and seeing the Miami skyline and bay prior to dinner. We ate outside in June and the temperature was very comfortable.
