El Bodegon de Brickell

I dont know why it took me so long to write this review because I was livid when I left there. I booked the place for my boyfriends birthday dinner and as we are waiting for our party a very pushy waitress was pushing us to order a bottle and order right away. There was a performance from some Venezuelan comedian and our friends were being charged a cover to get in.(something they could have mentioned before we made the reservation). As we are getting ready to order the waitress proceeds to tell us the menu for the day. Apparently on special nights you eat what they want you to eat. Forget the menu we saw on the website, oh and they want you to order NOW! I immediately started calling every restaurant on brickell for alternate dining options and finally lucked out at Perricones. We had a
coupon and they did not want to honor the coupon for the drinks we consumed. Never AGAIN! Oh and we had an awesome time at Perricones.

I came by for lunch and they had a lunch buffet going on for less than $ 10. The food was pretty good, but I did not feel wanting to come back for the buffet.
I plan to come back to try their punta trasera (best priced in Miami), and update the review.

Yet another addition to the downtown scene. I checked out the Grand Opening. There were free hors d’oeuvres and cocktails so needless to say, the place was packed. The crowd consisted mostly of professional, urban Latinos. It is located inside the Four Ambassadors so that makes it an easy choice for the happy hour crowd on Brickell.
