The venue left a very pleasant impression. We ordered beef carpaccio, which was delicious. We also tried the octopus with potatoes and tomatoes it was cooked perfectly, tender and flavorful. We had two cocktails: an Old Fashioned and a Pornstar Martini. The Old Fashioned was prepared exactly the way it should be and we really enjoyed it. The Pornstar Martini was also very good. The bartender’s work left an extremely positive impression. I’d also like to note the convenience of the service: there were special buttons on the table to call a server, which was very practical and made communication with the staff much easier. The service was pleasant and unobtrusive. We were seated outside, and the atmosphere was calm and comfortable. Overall, both the kitchen and the service left a very positive impression, and we would be happy to return again.
Our waitress was excellent and was helpful with my kids. Great Atmosphere and vide. Very chil and relaxed. The drinks were great. Definitely will stop here again when visiting my in-laws.
We visited based on recommendations from two people, and it was 100% worth it! The food was delicious, the cocktails were perfectly crafted, and the service was outstanding. Kate took great care of us she was friendly, attentive, and helped us choose the best dishes and drinks. If I find myself in Miami again, this spot will absolutely be on my list!
We dined at DaVinci in Hallandale Beach, and overall it was a mixed experience. The restaurant was full, which is always a good sign and shows its popularity. The owner is Ukrainian, and most of the customers seemed to be from Eastern European countries, giving the place a distinctive, lively atmosphere. We started with a beef tartare with truffle oil. While the meat quality was good, there were too many capers, which masked the taste of the meat, and the dish was slightly too salty. On the other hand, the duck confit and the seafood pasta were excellent and a real pleasure for the taste buds—well prepared and full of flavor. The decor is attractive and elegant, but the experience was affected by a long wait to be served and some ordering issues, likely due to how busy the restaurant was. With improved service organization and more balanced seasoning, DaVinci has the potential to be a very enjoyable dining spot. 😀
I loved everything I got! The burnt edamame was delicious, and the truffle pasta was so good. The salad was also great, and the matcha was good. The syrniki were super delicious; I especially loved the sauce on the bottom. The interior is very comfortable with chill vibes, and the service was amazing. I loved our waitress!
