We reserved a table outside but it was very windy so, we asked to moved closer to the bar where the wind wasn’t too bad. We waited about 3 min then I walked up to the hostess to ask again about us being moved? She said we had to wait even though we had a reservation. I believe the manager over heard and offered us another table and we decided to sit at the bar. The manager comp 2 drinks for us and made sure we were comfortable even coming back later to check on us I thought that was very classy. My only suggestion is that the ladies working at the hostess station should work on their customer service more to ensure the best guest experience. Despite the wind my date and I had a good time we even got a picture of the moon!

When we are in Miami we always make a point to make a reservation at Stubborn Seed. The food never disappoints, the service is wonderful and Ana - the pastry chef, is an amazing talent by herself. The kitchen is helmed by a great chef and we always remark to each other when leaving that not only was our evening memorable - it was also a great value.

It is always a pleasure to be at Amara, the Boardwalk tables are great, beautiful views and ambiance. Service at the bar and dining was excelent. One detail we did not enjoy was that nobody told us the happy hour drinks were only at the bar so when they moved us out to the table we were not able to enjoy our second drink. Now we know!! I still recomend it greatly.
