Reviews for Stubborn Seed in Miami Beach, FL
Excellent, delicious and high quality food - very different flavors to other high end or Michelin rated restaurants we've been... to. Freshest (and tastiest) oysters we had in all of Miami and I was dreaming about the noodles for two days after eating them.Tuna melted in our mouths and the broth in the swordfish dish was complex and delicious. Highly recommend. Read more
It’s rare to find such a wonderful restaurant like Stubborn Seed that has a great vibe, amazing service and exceptional food... all in one but this does just that! When in Miami, I recommend coming here and going for the tasting menu and wine pairing. Itis well worth the it and your taste buds will thank you. Our 7 year old daughter was with us and she loved the cheese puffs,bravas and the juiciest chicken ever. The service is was top notch and the attention to details was seen throughout therestaurant. It was a wonderful way to start our vacation. Make sure to make a reservation too! Read more
Some of the best food I've had in a while. Felt like I was on an episode of Chefs Table. Highly recommend sitting at the bar... because the staff are incredibly fun to speak with. The Jalapeno Fritters and Blueberry olive oil cake are a must. Read more
We were there to celebrate our anniversary. The tasting menu was creative and impressive! We loved the menu made for us:) We... enjoyed the food as well as the open kitchen setup. One star was reduced because we had an appointment at 9:30pm but got seatedaround 10:30pm and started eating around 10:40pm. We were told the chef was in the kitchen but when we sat down he was no longerthere, too bad! We finished our dinner around 12:30am. I wish they did a better job on respecting the appointment time, althoughour mood was not impacted:) Read more
The food and service here were top notch. We did the 8 course tasting menu that gave us a little bit of everything from the menu... and we left stuffed! Tasting menu takes away the decision making but was all items from the menu. Presentation and flavors werefantastic. Great cocktails, quick service, and a lovely vibe away from the chaos of the main South Beach strip. Read more
The chef’s 5-course tasting menu was served in a very artistic way. My favorite was the mushroom dish. Beautifully plated and... an excellent and exotic variety of mushrooms with different mouthfeels and chewiness. Great flavor. Palate cleanser was servedbefore the main course, which was unique and take the already high level restaurant into the next level. Dessert put a verynice end to the wholesome meal. Read more
This place was amazing. Well deserving of at least 2 Michelin Stars. Every dish from the tasting menu and every cocktail we... tried was perfect. The wait staff were the best I've ever had, and I have never been treated better in another restaurant. Wehad the pleasure of meeting the head chef Jeremy Ford. The man is a culinary master and a wonderful person to talk with. Giving5 stars only because 6 is not an option. Read more
Not Michelin star quality The bill: around 1.200$ for 4 guests. No tip included. Two bottles of wine and 4 cocktails plus the... tasting menu. The food: the quality of the food was good but not spectacular. Neither the experience itself. Interestingflavours in general but nothing that I haven’t tried before in restaurants without stars such as Bazaar by Jose Andres. Maybefor Miami quality, this is a good restaurant but disappointing if you’ve tried several one star restaurants around theworld. The food included 7 courses. A little starter and dessert. Please notice portions are very small so If you have a bigappetite you will be slightly hungry when you leave. My husband left a bit hungry. The service: good but extremely far formexcellent as a one star restaurant should be. The restaurant tried to cancel our reservation 3 hours before the reservation.Unacceptable. They ended up apologizing but that was already a bit awkward. The ambience: the restaurant has indoors andoutdoors tables. The music was nice (a lot of David Bowie, Oasis…) but very loud. Families with children, avoid: therestrooms are clean, but they do not have hand sanitizer other than soap. There’s no changing table! A child won’t enjoy theexperience. Just keep that in mind if you’re planning on visiting with children or babies. This is not a negative as someplaces aren’t meant to be child friendly, but just something to be aware of. Overall: if you’ve tried several one starrestaurants, this one might be disappointing. I’m surprised it squeaked by. Read more
