I had a lovely time dining with some of my close friends at The Deck at Island Gardens. Our waiter, Trent, was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and took very good care of us throughout our dining experience. The food and drinks exceeded expectations (palette wise) and the restaurant itself is decorated tastefully and located right on the water. 10/10 would recommend

I was hoping for a great Mother’s Day but unfortunately it was hot, rainy and humid. The music was very loud, so loud I couldn’t have a conversation with my family and the buffet was ok, nothing special, not many choices. Do not think it was worthy of the $85pp. I would’ve preferred a la carte.

researched this place, but didn't know how "lively" it was. Beautiful spot, views of the skyline over the bay and of the docks with multi-million $$ yachts. Killer food and excellent service. Not cheap, but heard pretty standard for MiJami!

While the food tasted delicious, the menu was unimpressive for the outrageous prices. The service was fine although sometimes it felt as if the wait staff was a bit snooty. The music was extremely loud and made it difficult to have a conversation— after all it’s a restaurant mot a nightclub.

First ..if you want an amazing view of Miami at night go to the Rusty Pelican..here while on the water your view is blocked by super yachts..if that’s what ur into but forget the skyline shot. Also had a cruise liner do a 180 in front of us so that view was a complete take out of city Service. Just don’t like when waiter starts out with .”if you like my service please write me up by name..if not please leave my name out of your review. Service was fine, nothing over the top but when waiter saw I didn’t add additional tip to the already built in 20% he turned his nose up..he was def hunting to the add on tip and once paid that was the last smile we saw Price: i am a NYC diner..but come on…with 20% added always I can’t justify an $80 bottle of wine (and yes I just bought same bottle a in liquor store) selling for $300 after service Music: awesome band to include bongo and amazing electric violin player. Very clubby with a chic crowd but at high top to loud to have conversation. Again..Rusty Pelican kills it for food and view..here nightclub feel with nightclub bottle service attitude

Everything was just amazing. The service was top notch, the food was great, the ambiance was perfect. The restaurant is a bit on the expensive side but, it’s worth it. We went Saturday evening, they had the DJ playing and there was a belly dancer for entertainment. Very cute. Definitely will come back!

We had a good time but we’re disappointed in the selection of entrees. While we’ve had good meals here in the past, it seemed there were less options in the $30-40 range and and more big ticket meals for two.

The restaurant was very loud. There was an EDM concert right next door so maybe the restaurant pumped up their music to drown out the concert but there was too much going on while trying to eat dinner. We enjoyed the fire lady and the food was tasty but overall we were happy to leave to get out of the circus like atmosphere.

We are so sorry to hear we didn't meet your expectations during your dinner with us. We apologize for the music being loud which was as you said because of the Miami Music Week events next to our restaurant.We would love to accommodate you in a quieter time to give you a better experience on your next visit whenever you like! Thank you
