Beautiful restaurant, terrible food. Let me start by saying I absolutely love Peruvian and Japanese food, however this is not it. Save your money and go elsewhere.Nice presentation, but no flavor and the portions are tiny. I went to celebrate my birthday, ordered: Yellowtail “Nikkei Sashimi“ - (the ONLY thing I would consider going back for. Sad to say the best thing on the menu is the one dish that isn’t cooked); Spicy Tuna roll - no spice or flavor whatsoever; King Oyster Mushroom Tostadas - bland; Wood Fired Bok Choy - terrible, undercooked and no flavor; Charcoal Roasted Sweet Potato - undercooked and no flavor; Pollo de Miso - biggest portion of all but nothing great, the yogurt is unnecessary and gives it a strange smell and taste; Tentáculos de Pulpo - tough and no flavor. At this point I gave up and stopped ordering. Needless to say, we had dessert elsewhere. I will say our server had a great personality but I would not recommend or go back.
Very nice place my friend and I went in for a late lunch and tired out various items on the menu. I would say most things are the size of an appetizer. (So small portions) overall the staff was very nice and helpful when explaining the menu. Cocktails were also very delicious. The only thing I didn’t care for was the table we were sat at, it kept rocking? but besides that I enjoyed this place very much.
We made a reservation at chotto matte Miami at 8pm this evening to visit during our holiday. Due to a change of plans we had to cancel our booking - 4 days before I attempted to call chotto matte but could not get through. I tried again every day including this morning (the day we were due to go for the meal) and still could not get through via the phone. I was waiting to 38 minutes and had to hang up as I have a UK mobile phone and it costs a fortune! I emailed, I messaged them on Instagram and had no reply. I then got a confirmation text this morning so replied to cancel and was then charged a cancellation fee. I immediately rang the restaurant again and finally someone answered called Osma (the restaurant manager). This man was extremely rude, he continuously spoke over me and didn’t seem to understand that I had been trying to cancel the table for several days. I understand if it’s less than 24 hours there is a late cancellation charge however it is not my fault they don’t answer their phone lines or emails and make it impossible to cancel. Despite me explaining this 5 or 6 times, Osma continued to be extremely unhelpful telling me he would look for the email, disregarding then numerous phone calls I have made. My boyfriend then took the phone as he could see my frustration and Osma again spoke over him, and eventually hung up on him. He rang back and Osma accused him of being aggressive and once again hung up the phone. TERRIBLE SERVICE - please be aware of how difficult it is to cancel at chotto matte. I have all my emails and call logs and will be contacting my bank for a refund as well as emailing chotto matte. Appalling service.
In Miami for the Grand Prix, a colleague and I thought better have a good dinner out before things got super busy…. And over the moon with our decision! Staff we are all so polite. Our server had amazing recommendations and so friendly! The sharing menu we had was amazing, they kindly swapped 2 dishes out for us for something we preferred… so accommodating! And the cocktails were unreal! Really really loved it… it was expensive mind you, but so happy to pay it when quality of whole experience is worth it! and if we have a spare night again, we would love to go back!
Fantastic tasting menu coupled with awesome service and fabulous cocktails- if in Miami or London for that matter don’t forget to experience this first hand. One note- in the Miami location the music can be a tad loud so beware.
Been going here for years and love this spot! Such a great vibe!! Food and service always spot on!! Add this to your list of place to check out in South Beach!
This place is mediocre at best. Sure, the restaurant is beautiful (I mean during the daytime at least so you can ACTUALLY appreciate the sun shining through the open ceiling). But overall, the music, food, service was lackluster.We ordered a variety of dishes including the jalea mixta, spicy tuna crispy rice, yellowtail nikkei sashimi, asado de tira, chicken kaarage and wagyu gyoza. Not a single dish stood out to us, overwhelming lack of flavor complexity; essentially one note.Service was also quite disappointing. Perhaps the already included 20% gratuity allowed the server to forget about ordering our drinks/food and not check on us a single time to ask if we needed anything… like basic things such as condiments. Hello, soy sauce?Lastly, the inability to divide up our check at the end was the cherry on top. We were a group of 6 and had all of our orders written out on our phone yet they were unable to accommodate and limited us 4 cards only to pay.All in all, there are many other aesthetically pleasing, fusion-style, Japanese inspired restaurants here in Miami such as Dragonfly and Paperfish. Unlikely would I visit again, this is a prime example of over asking and under delivering.
Our server Jose was great, he was very helpful with our food and drink selection. The food here is delicious, we will definitely be returning on our next trip to Miami. The energy at this location is great, along with the friendly staff.
Amazing spot! Really beautiful and unique decor, it even has an opening roof and nice mood lighting. Food was absolutely amazing! So delicious every single plate and so much flavor. Even the gluten free dessert which was the lava cake. Highly recommend!!
Ten stars!!! We went earlier in the day when they first open. We tried them the first day and my god! Blown away! Everyone and I mean everyone was extremely friendly and professional! It was a dining experience like no other. Flavors drinks atmosphere amazing! I was struggling with my chopsticks and our waiter gave us an excellent presentation on how to utilize them best! Had a great time. We came back the very next day! Chef personally came out to greet us and made us a special dessert!A very special place was etched into my heart those two days…Whenever we come back to Miami we will always always always visit!!!Food was so good I couldn’t take many photos ?The bathroom is the black light!!!
