Caviar Russe Miami

"This is one of our favorite restaurants in NYC. We saw there was a location in Miami where we are going for a trip and was so excited! We called ahead to reserve a table for 6 adults and 3 children. We appreciate they were able to accommodate our son plus our friends 2 kids. The whole vibe of the dinner though was disappointing. Nothing like the service we received on multiple visits to the NYC location. The server although somewhat polite, seemed annoyed and curt with us. We assume it's because we had children? But if children are not welcome, they should not have said it was ok while making the reservation. I'm also currently pregnant and asked about non alcoholic options. He said they could probably make something for us. But never asked again the entire meal until I requested an option from a different server. Our waters were also not refilled. The restaurant was only half filled but the service for the food was extremely slow. We started at 6 and by 830 we were still waiting for our dishes. We ended up having to cancel the last courses and leave by 9ish. All the courses were delicious as usual except for the foie gras dish which was very very salty and difficult to eat even spread on the toast provided. I've never left foie on the table, this would be the first. The meal wasn't so horrible, but we all agreed this particular servers attitude just made us feel very unwelcome and set the tone for a negative experience at the restaurant. Our bill btw was just under $3k with a $440 mandatory 20% gratuity"

"I was really looking forward to seeing this place and trying the tasting menu and caviars. Because my schedule was limited I could not go back to the hotel and change into dress clothes. However me and my guest arrived early and took a seat outside. I had a dress shirt on with swim shorts. As this is miami we came from the beach. My guest was dressed in casual clothes. We asked for a table on the outside away from everyone. It's inside the hallway but outside the resteraunt. We were thirsty from walking so I walked inside to ask for water and was met with the manager who told me the he is refusing to serve me and I had to leave. I do not know why he was so upset or so rude but it was uncalled for. I came there to enjoy a unique meal with my guest and was treated unfairly. I don't know how they can make up for this. But I thought I would give my experience anyway. I left 40 on the table for the server because it was not his fault. And we left. I could not be more upset with how this manager dealt with this situation and how he spoke and treated me."

"Fantastic meal! Go into the experience with the understanding that as with a lot of fine dining the price tag is not going to be insignificant however, the food is worth every penny! Was able to have a wonderful date with some wonderful food and wine!"

"Pretty decent place with an overall pleasant culinary experience. Although not particularly exciting dishes, the execution was good and the flavor is there."

"This is a serious restaurant with very good food and decent professional service Small and perfect dining area with open kitchen located in outstanding lobby in the four seasons building in Brickell Avenue The oysters was perfect The foie Gras mousse was served with strawberries which was instead of the traditional compote of apple! A new idea and we liked it The tuna tartare topped with caviar was super good to excellent The Caviar and it’s accompanying mixing presentation was outstanding and super good The Moët et Chandon Champagne alongside the Caviar was great combination and we enjoyed the whole dinner experience and we will definitely comeback again"
