Meat Market

tfresh upscale \r exellent service\r a real restaurant maybee the best in miami more

I was only in Miami for the weekend and had walked past the restaurant earlier in the day and thought it looked pretty stylish so I decided to check it out that evening.\r \r I didn't make a reservation but luckily there was a seat available at the bar.\r \r I ordered food (Salmon) which was amazing and had lots of Mojitos!\r \r All the bar staff were very friendly and I ended up talking to the manager! I've never been to a place with such a great atmosphere. Everyone, including the management, were so friendly!\r \r \r This restaurant not only serves great food, it also has a great atmosphere about it! Friendly staff more than willing to help (I've been to places in the past where this isn't the case). \r \r It's definitely a must if you're in Miami! I will definitely go back and recommend it time and time again!\r \r John, London more

Wow, this the place to go if you want to experience great food, great service and beautiful view. Located in Lincoln Rd, the Meat Market offers the best of Miami, beauty and great flavors. A++ more

Food was very good, but very overpriced. Dinner for 2. Two glasses of wine. No appetizer, no dessert. 150 with tip. more

Even though I am typically skeptical of beach restaurant's, The Meat Market, was much more than the ambiance. The food and drinks were fabulous. The service was fantastic, too (we went for an early dinner, though). more

Is great and uotsiide is even betts!! I love it more

Hogwash! The bland narrative below is nothing more than a futile attempt by this very restaurant at discounting the numerous criticisms found on major blogs around the city. A quick check will return the author's IP Address who is, not surprisingly, a native of Denver, Colorado where these buffoons hail from. You guys are amateurs at best! LOL If you plan on reviewing your own restaurant, try doing so from an internet cafe. And yes, the same people that brought us Kiss Steakhouse have now brought us Meat Market. Need I remind you that Kiss Steakhouse was an outright flop and received the SAME poor reviews when it opened that Meat Market is receiving now? In fact, Kiss Steakhouse was open for about two years (if that). Conclusion: Sean Brasel couldn't cook steak then and he sure as hell can't cook it now. I believe the celebrity you may be referring to is Calvin Klein. Well, I was member to his entourage at the Meat Market not long ago and we left in the middle of our meal because the steaks were not cooked properly. In fact, Calvin was so disgusted that he asked we all leave together. And out we went. The Review below is not a ""review"". It's nothing more than a description commonly used by a restaurant in their marketing materials that's been re-worded to pass as legitimate. Do not be fooled. You can go to any restaurant along Lincoln Road to ""people watch"". Tell me about the food. Did you even eat there or were you just asked to concoct some fictional account? An intelligent consumer knows bologna when they read it. And a knowledgeable diner knows bologna when they eat it. Pros: 12AM - that's when they CLOSE Cons: Food (esp. the steak) more

If you love the South Beach night life dining scene, you would be interested in the latest and greatest creation of the same team that brought usTouch Restaurant and Kiss Steakhouse. An evolution of their personal taste and experience, Executive Chef Sean Brasel and partners have raised the bar on Lincoln Road yet again. The ambience and texture of the main dining room combine to create an inviting and stylish see and be seen environment. Want to people watch and lounge a bit - relax outside in the comfortable chaise and sofas. The bar is one of my favorite spots, as it's three sides provide ample seating and a view of the surroundings, and the bar staff is friendly, attentive and extremely knowledgable about the menu. Chef Brasel is a culinary artist, boldly combining texture and flavor that delights, surprises, tantalizes, and never fails to be presented beautifully. I eat lean and mean, and the menu is versatile enough to please a variety of palates, and changes often enough to please regular diners. The energy is vibrant, reflective of Meat Market's central Lincoln Road location. I showed up for a late dinner one evening as a private party was wrapping up and spotted a local celebrity amongst the guests. In tougher economic times when many of us are more consciously considering where we get the most value for our money, I'm happy to say that I'll be supporting local businesses that go above and beyond. Meat Market certainly gets my vote. Pros: Ambience, Location, Food, Scene more

I'm sure the ""mastermind"" behind this restaurant's moniker feels clever indeed. Not so much. Whereas the name seems inventive, the menu does not. Would someone kindly inform the Executive Chef...excuse me...the cook, Sean Brasel, that baby escargot, filet mignon and quail eggs do not by virtue of their presence on a menu make for a fine dining establishment. Rick Munarriz was bold in his comparison of the Meat Market to Prime 112. You're comparing apples to oranges. Brasel isn't talented enough to be Mike Sabin's Sous Chef. And nevermind Morton's - it's in a class all its own. But my Review is not a product of the cook's cutlets. I would have never bothered writing this Review had it not been for my brief, yet dreadful encounter with the young, incredibly naive Brijette. Where ever did you find her? For a Meat Market, I expect better than this chopped liver. What a rude little girl. She seems to have fallen and tripped well past her pay grade. She is disrespectful and lacks the refinement necessary for a restaurant that alleges to be a fine dining establishment. Take a lesson from the ladies at The Forge or Capital Grille or Burger King for that matter. Considering Brigette is the first contact a patron has with the Meat Market, management would be wise to act accordingly. I was terribly disappointed from the onset and it's unfortunate that novelty will not be enough for the Meat Market to survive. I fear poor staffing and a weak menu will be its demise soon enough. During these times it is extremely important that service providers be courteous and polite always. Brijette was nothing more than a MEATer maid with her militant demeanor and unprofessional behavior. None of us will be returning and after our meal pondered whether we should become vegans. Pros: Location Cons: Brijette more

DO NOT TRUST your concierge they are paid a commission to send you there, this was repeated to me by a concierge. After eating there I think I have to believe the statement. This is a very sad to say for a steak house that the only thing good is anything but the steak and by good I mean OK. more
