Vintro Kitchen - Miami Beach

The worst experience I had in a restaurant, the food had to be returned, service inexistent I paid for my wein, which we tried to eat bad food, probably 2 days old or more I was very surprised for the high reviews.

Restaurant was completely empty. Good average at best. Weird vibes

Beautiful space. Food quality exceeded our expectations. Extremely attentive and professional service. Although the restaurant was a bit quiet for a Wednesday evening, the atmosphere perfectly suited our dining mood. We will return!

Initial plan was for a top rated restaurant in south beach. After long day of travel opted to dine at vintro kitchen. We were not dissapointed. Great choice if you are staying at hotel or area. The roasted cauliflower and Brussels sprouts were excellen?

I forget what day of the week it was but, based on the glowing reviews on Open Table, I honestly thought we 'd be lucky to snatch a reservation at this fine restaurant. Much to our delight and surprise, equaled with a creeping sense of horror the place was virtually empty. Why? Were the reviews wrong? Had it changed management, or kitchen staffs? Had budget conscious owners fired a good chef to increase the bottom line? Wrong on all counts. This place is a hidden gem, tucked away in a hotel you wouldn 't know existed unless you accidentally booked a room there. Everything we ordered was great the grilled octopus, the Greek salad and the seared scallops alone are reason enough for a return visit. My son, the picky eater, was hesitant about sampling his orzo mac and goat cheese, and I really can 't say how it tasted because he practically licked the plate after he had his first bite. Even the brussel sprouts the brussel sprouts!!! such a yucky veggie were terrific. And the service was equal or better than the meal... we practically invited the guy to sit with us, and tell us about the restaurant and the food preparation. Attentive, knowledgeable, friendly (but not over the top), in short, professional, everything great service should be. Too bad I can 't remember the server 's name, but in the interest of giving credit where credit is due, it said Benedett at the top of my cc charge slip. All in all, a fantastic meal, and great service... which is where the other side of the creeping sense of horror comes in. How long will this hidden gem survive? Too bad there 's no rating for Very, Very, Very Good as the food and service at Vintro are just shade short of Excellent, a whole lot better than many better known and more expensive establishments.
