The restaurant is closed yet you allowed us to make a reservation. Please remove this restaurant from your app as we were told they no longer serve as a restaurant merely a school for students.

First time here and for their Miami Spice lunch which was totally delicious Spanish food of which I have had plenty! The bacalao croquettes were outstanding as was my vegetarian paella with cauliflower and artichoke. The coconut flan for dessert was spot on! They've only been open for the past 4 months, but their dedication to excellence is undeniable. Give these guys a try. You won't be disappointed!

My experience was very pleasant even from my initial phone conversation when I called about any dress code. The young lady was very sweet. We were 3 couples and we were celebrating a birthday. The Miami Spice special menu had lovely options, and I ended up choosing their amazing traditional paella; while my husband ordered the black paella with octopus ink. We were also complimentary treated to what I call mini empanadas with a lovely dipping sauce. Our appetizers were very varied throughout the table, but all were over-the-top delicious. I would definitely return to enjoy this lovely restaurant with its very good food and service. One note: no mixed cocktails here - just beer and wine, which was fine with us.

We went for Miami Spice. Turns out they’ve only been open for two months and are affiliated with the culinary school nearby. Food was delicious! Everyone loved what they had. Will definitely be back!
