   I booked a reservation at Playa for my birthday dinner and I had an overall good experience. The ambience was everything. My favorite part of the experience was the photographer at the entrance as soon as we arrived. It adds a unique touch to the dining experience. The food was also amazing, I ended up ordering the glazed salmon and the baked mac and cheese and it was really good. I will say I was a little disappointed to find that a lot of the food options were sold out by the time of my reservation’s. Our server, Giana, i believe her name was made sure that we were accommodated as much as possible for the inconvenience. Whenever I am in Miami again, I will be revisiting.

   I came here two years ago for my birthday and it was really good. But this time food quality wasn’t good. Very mid.

   Our service was very bad. Our server did not come and check up on us and she let our food sit out too long. We received our food. Our food was completely cold very disappointed in this restaurant. I was super excited because it was my birthday.

   If you appreciate your taste buds and value your money do not eat here. This was a DISAPPOINTING meal. The chicken wings came out the color white with no seasoning or sauce, the caesar salad dressing was definitely kraft brand and the branzino had 0 flavor to it at all, and the mac n cheese… i’m convinced they just put elbow pasta with the slightest bit of cheese and over baked it in the oven with 0 flavor. Thankful I went now before bringing all of my friends there for my birthday. I would’ve been blacklisted when it comes to picking the restaurants. To serve the most dead food and have everything priced extremely high is CRAZY. It’s definitely not giving what it gave 2 years ago.

   The Lobster Ravioli was good. The brussle sprouts and Mac n Cheese was way too oily/greasy. The Salmon was not seasoned well. The bok choy was dried out. The Henrietta cocktail tasted like Sprite and strawberry syrup. The music and atmosphere was great, but the price of the food and drinks was ridiculously high.

   FIRST OF ALL . Do not call them because the host personally told us they do not use the phones. Bc we tried to call several times and days in advance and we were running late. The host/waiter did not look at us or introduce themselves, just sat water on the table and left and then came back and ask if we were ready yet as if he ever acknowledged us. We waited long for food not once did the waiter apologize, and food came out cold and did not taste freshly made. Orders were not to standard. Please don’t believe the hype 🤣 “fake bougie”

   Paid the deposit and booked this place to celebrate my boyfriend’s birthday after seeing multiple post on TikTok about it. Disappointed was an understatement. The hostess said she couldn’t sit us in a booth in the front, because it was only 2 of us, despite it being multiple booths with only 2 ppl, she said we could go to the back. We prefer a booth so we went to the back. It was very dark and the leather was torn cutting my leg. They were out of a lot of items living only limited items with an already limited menu. This place is overpriced and over hyped.

   The hostess are not nice and condescending, the floor plan of the tables aren’t the best. More like a social media hot spot verses true hot spot. Exchanged our drinks for shots because they were literally juice! Servers were nice but seemed to have no organization. Likely wouldn’t return

    Horrible experience. Only a place to visit if there is an event going on, even then still not worth it. Food came out cold and over cooked (salmon, Mac and broccolini). Took forever to get utensils, gave us dirty napkins to eat with and didn’t even apologize when I mentioned it. Also we ordered a hookah and found out when we got the bill that it was $150!! FYI, they will not mention that to you so make sure you read and don’t have high expectations when coming to this establishment.
