   Head waiter was not very straightforward with responses to simple questions. Assisting staff and General Manager were excellent! Food was excellent, but dessert was a bit underwhelming.

    One of the best meals ever; great pairing with wine, every course was extremely well thought through with culmination in fantastic desert. We went and order 3 different wine selections for our home collection after this meal. Job well done by the entire staff!!!

    Disappointing. The food was “just ok”. The wine pairing was terrible but upon the feedback, we were allowed to switch out and get a bottle instead. The bottle was great. Service was friendly and excellent. The food was not particularly noteworthy

    We had the chef's tasting menu and every single course was a work of art and treat to the senses. The macaron with caviar was the show stopper. Highly recommend checking this restaurant out if you are in Miami.

    An excellent meal with some unique course including a caviar macaroon which was unexpectedly delightful. Indeed, all courses were delicious and beautifully displayed. In addition to the pairings which complemented the food, the pre-dinner Facundo was superb.

    I want to first start off by saying that I usually eat at one or two Michelin rated restaurants per year, so I am not a newbie when it comes to these environments. When my wife and I entered, the hostess immediately began by welcoming us and started to show us to our table. Then a gentleman, assuming a dining room manager, grabbed ahold of the tablet and asked us our name again and looked at us in confusion as if we didn't have a reservation. He then paused and said "Oh! there you are, you are early!" Our reservation was for 8:15PM, it was 8:11PM...so we were on time. Not that this was wrong by any means, I just expected a little more warmth and graciousness, you know the details that puts these restaurants above the rest. The hostess did her job perfect, and quite frankly I was a little embarrassed for her dur to her managers "takeover". Dining room was small, but details on the table where nice, service staff was warm, Luis was our server and he asked us about any allergies that we may have. My wife explained to him that she was allergic to seafood, his response was "All seafood?" she responded with yes, and she then stated we made that notation in the reservation, as to not "surprise" the chef. He looked at his book and said "oh yeah, you did". Again, our expectation was set slightly higher due to the "star". Luis however did a great job, he guided us through some spectacular cocktail, which my wife is still claiming the "Butterfly Effect" is the best cocktail she has ever had. That is saying a lot! Kudos to the Mixologist! The food was really good, I wouldn't say exceptional, but very well thought out and flavor combinations where relevant. The Duck Entree was one i was really looking forward to, however the amount of duck breast was about 1 ounce. It was cooked beautifully, but why so little? that's the star of the plate! Presentation on all courses were creative, and well received. Dinning room Was incredibly loud. we felt the value was lacking, to be honest

    Stubborn Seed was a top-3 restaurant experience for me. In my experience a tasting menu is always hit or miss. Some dishes you love and some are ok or even bad but here, every single dish was fantastic. Really, so fantastic that I will return every time I’m in Miami and am actually considering one night trips to Miami from Chicago just to go to this restaurant. If you haven’t need make your reservation now!

    SOBEWFF tasting menu - solid Michelin-star experience! Very creative start with mostly strong execution: the sauce for the wolf fish was a bit heavy and pedestrian (the fish itself was impeccable), and the dessert finished weak (the elevated strawberry shortcake fell kinda short) but all the other dishes were great!

    Probably not a place to go if you are gay, unfortunately. Seating is tight, less than a foot between tables, so it takes some effort to focus on your tablemates and not be distracted. But that is true in most in-demand restaurants in big cities and comes with the territory. But here, one notices who is welcome and who is not. Seated at a tight two-top, I noticed that a all three gay couples dining that night, myself included, were at these tight two-top tables. But all the three straight, or at least mixed-sex couples, were taken to four-top tables and place settings removed for more space and privacy. Four-top in the middle of the room, a four-top banquette against the wall, and a lovely corner table facing the room as well. Every restaurant has better and worse tables to be sure, but the 100% consistency of last night is really hard to stomach, and make excuses for. Food was as excellent as a Michelin rating always warrants. Our server Arturo was charming and the meal and wine flowed perfectly. The food-runners remembered the myriad ingredients with the best of them as well. But I won’t be returning. And honestly I think that is probably fine with them. My spouse and I are not who they are looking for.

    Absolutely amazing. Worth every cent. Our server, Starling, was excellent and pushed the meal over the top. I had read reviews that commented on noise level and felt rushed. We had neither experience. We will return every visit to Miami. I can't recommend this place enough. Don't miss it. It's the real deal and a must eat at!!
