   Most of what we ordered was fine, but the shrimp bisque was cold and tasted like tomato basil soup! Cream brûlée was delicious!

   Thank you for your feedback, Kathy! We’re glad you enjoyed the crème brûlée and found the ambiance to your liking. We’re sorry the shrimp bisque wasn’t up to expectations—it’s disappointing to hear it was cold and not what you expected. If something ever feels off during your visit, please don’t hesitate to let us know on the spot. We’re always happy to make it right so you can enjoy the best possible experience. We hope to welcome you back soon for a more seamless dining experience!

   The food was fine. However, the Christmas Miracle Pop up decor was such a disappointment compared to the last couple of years.

   Wonderful Nights of Lights dining experience. Server was attentive and friendly but not bothersome. Food was flavorful and delicious. Chicken, swordfish and shrimp were all cooked perfectly. Everything came out from the kitchen so fast. Wines were nice. Some of the mixed drinks were a bit odd tasting. Overall, love this local gem; consistently a great dining experience.

   The team did a great job, good food and service. Ashlee was very great to everyone. Not as decorative as in years past, but still super festive and fun. Definitely recomend!!

   Doug, thank you for the kind words and the recommendation! We're so glad you enjoyed the food, hospitality, and festive vibe—and we’ll be sure to pass along your praise to Ashlee for making your visit extra special. This year, we decided to switch things up after three years of our whimsical theme and are still fine-tuning the new look. If there’s anything specific you’d like to see added, we’d love to hear your ideas. We want every visit to feel magical and memorable. Can’t wait to welcome you back for more great times on Aviles St.!

   We went here for the Miracle Pop-up Bar, one of our holiday annual traditions. The festive drinks are always super fun and delicious, and their food menu is great as ever. Both my husband and I had a couple of their vegan options which were delicious, and the other two with us had the mussels and the chicken sandwich. Portion sizes were so much bigger than I remembered! It’s always busy, especially during the Christmas season so reservations are an absolute must. Even with all the busy-ness, the staff was super prompt, attentive, and friendly. Fun little perk: they gave us special Miracle beanies as a thank you for making a reservation!

It’s wonderful knowing you and your guests enjoyed our festive cocktails and delicious vegan options. Thanks for noticing the generous portion sizes—we aim to keep things hearty and satisfying! The holiday hustle on Aviles St. makes reservations a smart move, and we’re glad the Miracle beanies added a special touch to your visit. Can’t wait to welcome you back next year for more festive cheer!
