I’ve been to both Nikki Beach in Ibiza and Mallorca. This was my first time going to the OG Nikki Beach in Miami. The menu selection was great, almost too good with the amount of great choices they had on offer. Really friendly and attentive staff as well and great music. Some might say it is on the pricier side but you know what you’re paying for with fantastic food and a brilliant ambiance

Started out @ the bar— had an enjoyable conversation with Nicholas who is not only an expert bartender he is also a genuine gentleman! We sat outside to enjoy our belated anniversary celebration. Marisa (I hope I captured her correct name) was an outstanding server who was not only kind but extremely knowledgeable regarding the menu— and as a vegetarian I was extremely impressed. Both of our dinners were prepared and presented in an extremely pleasing manner. We both thoroughly enjoyed our dinner! I must commend the restaurant for having an extremely cordial and competent staff— everyone we came in contact was very friendly and kind. Thank you for making our celebration memorable and special. We look forward to returning to the hotel in the near future!
