Fantastic Service

By Rachelle L |

Our server Juan is the absolute best. He is the gold standard for excellent customer service. I would stay at the Kimpton ever time just to experience this level of service!

The Best Among the Best

By teniquab2018 |

Juan is by far one of the best service professionals. He has served me and my family over the years He is attentive with our needs and has good conversations. The juices they provide are amazing. Watermelon, green, pineapple and beet. The atmosphere is energetic and fun. The price is affordable.

Quality of service and culinary (max one-of-a-kind server)

By Neil B |

Amazing place, we feasted my food was quality and service that max gave us to transform our experience it is a great smiling waiter and always with little care, he advised us on the menu cocktails and exchange moments with him that was amazing. Thank you a thousand times max for your amazing service.

Area 31 Utter disappointment

By Inspiration435984 |

An major disappointment with the brunch service. Despite spending over $100 on a to-go brunch, the quality of the food and service was far below what one would expect from a reputable establishment.Firstly, the food was cold by the time it reached our room, which is less than a two-minute walk from the restaurant. This indicates a serious lapse in service efficiency and food handling.Furthermore, our order was not fulfilled correctly. I specifically ordered a vegetable omelet, yet received a plain egg omelet without any vegetables. Additionally, I ordered bacon but was instead given sausage. These mistakes are unacceptable, especially considering the premium price paid for the meal.To add to the disappointment, I was charged $11.00 for a cup of coffee that was both small and of poor quality. For the price, I expected a high standard of coffee, not something that tasted subpar.This experience was far from the exceptional service and quality that I anticipated from Area 31. Don't waste your money or time eating here.

Great hotel, I’ll be back. Shout out Juan

By Richard M |

Experience was great! Area 31 is amazing Juan looked after me. Thank you Juan. The food, service, everything was tip top. I’ll be back

Great food and service

By PilotTravelling |

Staff were friendly, I had Juan M, and along with the other wait staff- always smiling. Food was good along with generous portion sizes.

Dont waste money go elsewhere

By VASoleil |

Was looking forward to an excellent meal and was extremely disappointed. Evening started out ok with nice cocktails. Shared pork belly appetizer which was good. However, I ordered the risotto for dinner which was totally undercooked so I had an expensive inedible entree. And we were abandoned so could not communicate the issue to the wait staff. Thirty minutes later we were then asked if we wanted dessert menu. I replied if I am not able to eat my entree why would I bother with dessert. If restaurant is unable to cook risotto it should not be one the menu. Waste of money and time. Plenty of better places to eat.

Wonderful Service & View

Expensive for nothing

By Eric N |

Worse dining experience ever….very expensive for nothing $65.00 for 2 each 3 inches long crab legs hollowed out and filled with 1/2 ounces of some sort of overly salted crab mixture, it might even be the fake stuff!!! It really was high way robbery… the drinks were awful… ordered a mai tai, couldn’t even drink it most boring drinks ever. The service sucked. Our waiter spent his time chitchatting with other customers than paying attention to us… I do not recommend this overly expensive place to nobody. I don’t mind paying high dollars but give me good and quality food !!! I am telling you, who ever the chef is needs to review their prices: overly expensive for NOTHING to show for on the plates!!!

Everything was wonderful!

By Celeste G |

Excellent service

We had an excellent experience thanks to our waiter Juan M. From the moment we sat down, he was attentive, friendly, and incredibly professional without ever being intrusive. He knew the menu well, made great recommendations, and checked in at just the right times. His positive attitude truly elevated our meal and made us feel welcomed and taken care of. Service like this makes all the difference—we’ll definitely be back and hope to be seated in his section again.

An enjoyable experience every time

By GrandTour66980366950 |

Area 31 in Miami has great food and the service is always top notch. We have stayed at this hotel 3 times, and the servers are always kind and willing to converse with us. Located on the 16th floor over looking the water, you can watch yachts go by as you dine. Breakfast is a treat, with fresh pressed juice and freshly ground coffee. Lunch and drinks by the pool, everything is delicious.

Great food great service

By Chloe j |

I had an amazing experience at Area 31! Our server, Julian M, was so kind, attentive, and made us feel really taken care of the entire time. He had such a great attitude, checked in often without being overbearing, and made sure everything was perfect. You can tell he really enjoys what he does! definitely made our visit even better! Highly recommend asking for Julian if you dine here.

Exceptional Experience at the EPIC Kimpton Hotel – Rooftop Restaurant 31, Miami (Brickell)

By Shay B |

Every time I visit the EPIC Kimpton Hotel, it truly lives up to its name — epic! The Rooftop Restaurant 31 never disappoints. The food was absolutely delicious, and the ambiance was stunning, especially while sitting outside overlooking the beautiful Miami skyline. The staff was both pleasant and professional, providing top-notch service from start to finish. As a Diamond member, I truly appreciate how they go the extra mile to make you feel valued. Our waiter, Juan, was incredible — attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to make our evening special. The EPIC is one of my favorite IHG Boutique Hotels and has become my go-to spot whenever I’m in Miami. Whether you’re local or visiting, this place is a must-see and must-do! Highly recommend it for anyone looking for great food, excellent service, and a chic atmosphere in the heart of Brickell.

Nice hotel to stay

By Wander24633402711 |

It was a very good accommodation experience. The hotel is located in a clean, safe, and convenient area. The room size and layout were comfortable, I noticed there was no body lotion in the bathroom, perhaps they forgot to restock it? The breakfast on the 16th floor was excellent. Mr. Juan M. was very attentive and made sure my breakfast was perfect; the coffee was good and the milk was warm, everything was perfect.

Exceptional

By sarah w |

I stopped in for a quick meal after disemarking from a cruise and heading to my room. I was impressed with the professionalism and hospitality of my server, Juan. The Bloody Mary was one of the best I have ever had. Spicy and well seasoned, this cocktail is not to be missed. I ordered a Caesar salad and the ceviche. Both were exceptional and that's remarkable for two menu standards. The ceviche was better than anything I had last week in Aruba; Bonaire, and Curacao. I told the chef personally. The setting and design of the restaurant are beautiful and airy. The staff are professional and anticapatory. The food is a true gem. I'd come back in a heartbeat

Great service and food

By nathaliebiermanns |

Ultra Miami Visit

Waiter experience

By dianna s |

He has great customer service and a sense of humor. He made us laugh the entire time with his great jokes. He suggested some of their most best entrees. Please ask for Juan

Felt like I was taken in back and getting spanked by a dead lobster

By Kirk M |

I got sooooooo GYPPED, so the waiter claimed that they ran out of lobsters so he gave us 6 prawns that costed $120 instead of normal $50 for the plate. So the plate is supposed to be $50, he said no lobster.. So I thought the prawns will be a sub only (equal cost). No no no it wasn't. End up with a $350 bill (no alcohol)

Luis was an important part of the evening's entertainment. Recommended 100%

By Eduardo F |

Luis is the best bartender we have met in Miami, always attentive and ready to take care of everything we needed, he never showed us discontent, even when his shift was about to end he was up until the last moment trying to make sure everyone who was at the bar have a great night.

Excellent!

By Koren B |

Juan was an excellent waiter! Helped is with choosing what was best on the menu, and excellent customer service. Recommended with smoothies we should have too.

Excellent food, view and service with lots of gluten free options

By Jeff I |

We came to Area 31 after leaving another restaurant who could not provide gluten free options or substitutions. Our waiter Juan was very knowledgeable and guided my wife through all her safe choices. Even had gluten free Bloody Mary mix which was a bonus and very good. Food was very good, view was excellent, service was attentive and what would be expected from a restaurant so highly rated. Highly recommended

Neissa

Niomer is the best, really professional and friendly. We felt comfortable and understood, Definitely will come back because of him.

Juan M. @ the Kimpton Epic

By Ivory R |

Juan M. was wonderful! He was our server throughout our stay, and provided the most pleasant experience each day. I highly recommend him.

Overpriced for deplorable service

By Sarah Daï |

Almost 1h45 waiting between the order and the arrival of the dishes. They've apparently forgotten about us. It was our last night in Miami and despite a cup of free sparkler (I don’t drink) it didn’t catch up ... the dishes were really not great. Dry fish. Dessert resembling industrial. An additional 230€

Epic Hotel - pool side server

By Marilyn A |

I am very impressed with our pool server Erdinc at the Epic Hotel. He is very speedy and reliable! He is very friendly and always has a big smile on his face. I would highly recommend Erdinc being your poolside server! He gives top notch service!

Had a good time in Area31 with perfect service. Love to come here again.

A flawless experience

By Tarrence L |

Area 31 delivered an incredible experience from start to finish. The atmosphere, the view, and the overall vibe make it one of the standout spots in Miami — but what truly elevated my visit was the outstanding service from Juan M. Juan was exceptional in every way. His attention to detail, warm personality, and deep knowledge of the menu made the entire experience feel effortless and elevated. Every recommendation he offered was perfect, and he made sure we felt taken care of throughout our time there. Area 31 is already known for its great ambiance, but service like Juan’s takes it to another level. If you’re planning a visit, I highly recommend asking for Juan M — he made my experience unforgettable. I’ll absolutely be returning!

Some of the best service you will receive anywhere at any restaurant

By Randy |

My server today was Juan. He was Superior to almost everywhere else I have been going in the last several years. I wish the service overall at restaurants was as good as it is here. I will say that the restaurant is more pricey than some, but it is connected to the hotel! That being said you will receive no better service than here. Truly a pleasure to be here and many smiling faces. I never once had to ask for anything in fact it was there before I even requested it. The young people nowadays could use a lesson from the individuals who serve at this restaurant as they are not only A Step Above the Rest they are two or three steps above the rest. Great job guys you really make eating out a pleasure. Have a great rest of your Year and happy holidays. Randy

Wonderful experience 10/10

Dinner in the Heights

By Emerson C |

It is a very interesting restaurant, located 16 floors high, which gives a beautiful view of the center of Miami. Close to good hotels and other restaurants. We were well received and the food was good (not exceptional). We drank a very good California wine. It is worth the experience for the outdoor climate and the beautiful night view from part of Miami.

Great views and service

Area 31: Where Culinary Magic Meets Mixology Wizardry

By Chris B |

Welcome to Area 31, where Diana Dum's kitchen is like a magic cauldron, and Luis the bartender is the wizard of mixology, turning mere drinks into potions of joy. The food is so divine, it's like having a taste bud disco party in your mouth. And the staff? They're not just friendly; they're the comedians of hospitality, serving up laughs along with your meal. So come for the food, stay for the fun, and leave with a belly full of delicious memories.

Amazing! We are here for breakfast and it was delicious. Everything was included with our stay we both had steak and eggs, fruit platter, unlimited drinks, and more. I typically will only drink coffee if it has all the sugary additives from Starbucks but the Cuban coffee blew my mind! The service was impeccable, super nice and the ambiance was cozy, warm, and inviting. If the breakfast was this good, I can only imagine how well the dinner is! Would definitely go back it was amazing!

Well done Area 31

We came down for an early start to a day of frantic Christmas shopping. Awesome food from a menu of regional favorites. The ceviche in particular was spot on, and everything was freshly made and perfectly cooked. All topped off with great service from our server Juan!

Excellent!

By Jaz G |

Food was incredible and Juan took great care of us. Each time at breakfast the staff was attentive and made us feel incredibly welcome.

Unfriendly and never again

By Petra |

The view mega, but that's all! Unfriendly and never again! We had around 9.00 pm reserved a table and were already there at 8.30! The lady at the reception asked us to have an aperitif outside at the bar as our table was not ready yet. At 9.10 pm I went to ask if the table was ready, then she told us: You sent me a message on the phone (which we did not receive) and since we did not come you have now passed on the table!!! There is nothing left free now!!! What a cheek! She knew where we were and did and did not personally inform! By the way, it didn't have very many people and was therefore very clear. I told her I didn't think it was okay, you weren't interested in that at all and just ran away! So like that, fuck me and go somewhere else!!! That's what we did, too! They really don't need to... Never again... there are great locations

A dream

Excellent service von Juan M and lovely food. He is taking his job very seriously and has taken care of us during the whole breakfast.

Give this man a raise—he’s the reason I’ll be coming back to Area 31!

By Cherina C |

I had an amazing experience thanks to Juan! From the moment I walked in, he greeted me with a warm smile and positive energy. He was attentive, professional, and genuinely went above and beyond to make sure I was taken care of. Juan answered all my questions with patience and clarity, made thoughtful recommendations, and treated me with respect the entire time. It’s clear he takes pride in his work and cares about the customer experience. You don’t always come across people like that—he’s truly a gem! The service was fast, the space was clean, and everything ran smoothly because of Juan’s efficiency and attention to detail. I left feeling valued and appreciated.

By Xavier P |

Great service!

Super relaxing and fun

By Seta K |

We were there for few days, and Jose, the server at the pool helped us all those days! He was very kind and courteous, including all others. I would recommend that place!

Horrible Birthday!

By HopeG117 |

The service was horrendous !!! The food is mediocre, do not expect any bread at all unless you request it three or four times! While other tables were already finished we were still waiting for our bread or waiting for our waiter to come over and bring our food. The place itself lacks personality, decor is plain the only saving grace is the view, but you need to seat outside to enjoy it.

Awesome Breakfast Experience!

By Wes S |

Juan was incredible! His service and interaction was impeccable. My wife says the Cuban coffee should be called ‘liquid orgasm’ —obviously she loved it!! The food was delicious and the fruit fresh—a delightful dining experience!

Excellent Breakfast Service

By Sergei A |

We visited only for breakfast, and our waiter Juan made it such a pleasant start to the day with his attentive and friendly service.

The hidden gem in Miami - Best Brunch

By Yuzhe X |

The best brunch experience in Miami. We stayed at the Kimpton Epic for 5 nights and never got sick of the hotel breakfast. It’s actually one of the highlights of our 5-day tour. The lobster & crab Benedict is soooo good. I had this single dish for five mornings. And the service is awesome and so welcoming!

Upscale and nice

By Mk31 |

This is a high-end upscale dining place, the prices are high, but so is the food quality. There’s also a lovely outdoor area with fantastic views of the waterfront and downtown Miami, I highly recommend it.

Excellent and friendly service

Food is great, cocktails too. Get the green juice with tequila and sit in Juan’s section. Great conversation and service. You won’t be disappointed. He makes you feel right at home. Very memorable experience and much needed after a day of traveling.
