Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Kendall West

Wonderful place , lightening , service , I just can say the variety salads 🥗 is sad . Price is ok. Music Thursdays can be better ..

Delicious , flavorful food. The miso sea bass was a 10 as was the hot chocolate cake. Good vibe and energy but not so loud . Always make time to dine here when I am in Miami . Highly recommend.

The setting in the Versace mansion is perfect. The fountain, pool, tile work, statues and tapestries are the perfect setting for traditional Italian dining. The ocean air breeze flowing over the open southern wall by the pool perfectly complements the vibe in this ristorante with an authentic trattoria feel. Somehow, I wasn’t even annoyed by the constant picture taking of influencers and other diners as the setting is more like - how could you not? The medium rare lamb chops and truffle gnocchi were perfect. The desserts are a demonstration of the talent of both the chef and the servers. Try the tiramisu to see what I mean.

Such a fun experience at Kiki on the River. The food was outstanding. The Miami “scene” was out for sure. We live in Chicago and very used to premium prices for our meals - this was excessive. For 2 adults and a 14 yr old it was $450. My husband and I each had 2 drinks. We had one entre, filet a Caesar salad, tuna tartar, grilled vegetables. That costs about $350 with tip at Morton’s. We had fun and chalked it up to vacation meal. It’s definitely a spot worth going if you like the Miami scene.

This is my first time at the tap42 on Kendall. Our experience was fantastic. Valentina was our waitress and I don’t want anyone else than Valentina. She is patient, respectful, courteous. The food portions were big and shareable. The cocktails were great and reasonably priced for happy hour. We sat in the terrace and the vibe was great for a Tuesday. Will go back again ! Thank you for a great time.
