Best WLM Reviews
Amara at Paraiso, was the perfect choice for my birthday lunch with my partner. The view of Biscayne Bay was simply magical—peaceful, elegant, and the kind of scenery that makes you stop and savor the moment.
The food? Incredible. Every bite was a burst of flavor, easily one of the best meals we’ve ever had. It’s clear the chefs know how to elevate coastal and Latin American cuisine to something truly memorable.
If you’re looking for a place to celebrate, enjoy a view, and indulge in amazing food, this is it!
I have been to this place on multiple occasions, and food is consistently good. While dinner is very nice with oysters and chilled wine by the water, I definitely prefer brunch for 2 reasons. First, you can see the bay, and it is just beautiful, and second, their brunch dishes are amazing. The burger with thick cut bacon is super delicious. I would go back anytime for that. And their aroz Verde is very filling and flavorful! Even if you are not vegetarian, I recommend trying or ordering as a side dish for a table to share. Good place!
I can say that this is one of my favorite places in Miami the food is amazing the view, atmosphere and vibe are everything you would expect. I recommend making reservations because it is always busy again guys the food is EXCELLENT as is the service good options as well for drink and wine lovers!
Great spot for a brunch. Amazing views and good drinks. The desserts were AWESOME! People were kind and service was very helpful. A bit pricey, but definitely good for a special day!
Had the opportunity of celebrating my boyfriend’s birthday at Amara and sincerely it could not have been more special and memorable. The restaurant itself is extremely beautiful, clean, organized, pleasant to the eye even with the music being just perfect and the employees being warm and welcoming from beginning to end of the service.
We sat outside right in front of the water and the views were AMAZING! We started our evening with some customized header menu’s that said “happy birthday” with my boyfriend’s name on it and that alone was the motive of a big laugh and smile which really did bury itself in my heart forever so thank you Amara for providing a core memory.
Now, on to the real good stuff: the FOOD!!!! Let me just start by saying everything was way better than I could possibly explain. We started with some of their raw oysters which were INCREDIBLE! They have taken away spot #2 from another restaurant on my list of top 3 places for oysters; these were fresh but also juicy? They truly did felt and tasted like an aphrodisiac we truly didn’t want to finish them ???? but all food things… after the oysters we had their octopus which was a perfect mix of sweet & salty JUST THE OCTOPUS alone, the lettuce is a nice plus but definitely not necessary trust me when I tell you that this one you’ll want to eat alone it’s also a fun concept the way it’s plated. Next we had their prawns which came with three different sauces on the side; pico de gallo, red pepper oil and I believe chimichurri? (We were having champagne clearly I was doing my best to stay focused) ???? which were amazing and we didn’t even use the sauces because the prawns were just that girl, perfect charr and cooked perfectly a touch of lemon just in case but anything else is just extra. Then we had their short rib with gnocchi and little onions (again, champagne) which was also very tasty and the short rib didn’t even need the fork it literally melt at the touch of it, the gnocchi I am not a big fan of but the one served at Amara is suprisinglu good and has a texture that feels different to the taste (in a good way).
We finished off with their surprise dessert which was a plate filled with of all their sweets and I have so much to say and it is all good but unfortunately Yelp has said enough so I do invite you to visit them SPECIALLY ON TUESDAY WHEN THEY HAVE $1 oysters YEAH YOU READ RIGHT!!!! Go get you some ???? and ????????
Good food, good drinks, nice atmosphere cool DJ, just the service was notas good. Our server had a bit of an attitude, like if he was doing us a favor or probably was too early for him. Our reservation was on Saturday morning 11:30am.
We spend about $600 for a brunch of 4 people.
Probably will come back on a different time. I hope the experience will be better with a different server.
Wonderful Experience at Amara at Paraiso Bay
My husband and I, along with two friends visiting from Switzerland, had an amazing dining experience at Amara at Paraiso Bay. We opted for the "Miami Space" menu, which was outstanding.
I made a reservation online and requested a table close to the water. I also called in and left a message, to secure the reservation. Upon arrival, the hostess mentioned that only a patio table was available, but she seemed genuinely eager to help. Thankfully, our server, Zaina J., made it possible to get us closer to the water. She had a fantastic personality and really went the extra mile to accommodate us.
The restaurant wasn't full, with many tables empty throughout our visit, so it never felt crowded. When we had questions about the drinks and menu, Zaina kindly referred us to another staff member who knew more about the beverages. Unfortunately, that interaction wasn’t great at all - the individual was dismissive kind of an arrogance. (he only gets a two star) and he walked away and didn’t returned, which we didn't mind.
Despite that hiccup, Zaina made up for the experience tenfold. She was incredibly patient, helping us navigate the menu, which was a bit challenging for tourists like us. Her attentiveness, efficiency, and kindness truly stood out. As a small business owner, I recognize and appreciate quality staff, and Zaina is exactly the type of employee any business would be lucky to have.(she would get a 7 star) just for how she handled the situation professionally.
The food was fantastic—each dish was delicious, with generous portions and beautiful presentation. And the location? Simply stunning. The view of the ocean and the sunset made for an unforgettable dining experience.
great dinner tonight! Leveraged the last Miami Spice night and also live that it is an Inkind member. Food was delicious and Carolina was an excellent server!
