Terrazza

Review for Sunday Brunch ONLY-​Methinks not? is the best way to describe this place. I am truly surprised at the high ratings for their brunch. Maybe they were having an «off day» when I came here because I would never go back. I have been to plenty of brunches before. High priced, low priced and the in-​between. This deserves to be not even be on a list for brunches. It was sub-​par and mediocre to say the least and what a waste of money. First off, their spread wasn’t really a spread and their omelette station wasn’t even a station but there was some guy standing there who looked like he was waiting to take your omelette order. When I started telling him what i wanted on my omelette he tells me that I have to place the order with my server and not with him. huh? what do you mean? Your standing at the omelette station? Anyway, I decided to not order one after all. Too much work. The only thing I ended up eating was kale salad and a watermelon & feta salad, and some tiny piece of dried up salmon. I definitely feel that they need to revamp this «Sunday Brunch» that they have and also remodel and clean up the grounds of the hotel/​outdoor eating area. I wish I had taken pictures of this place. What a major difference from years ago when I first came here and thought how fabulous of a hotel it was. Not anymore. Sorry Shore Club.

We got back from a Miami vacation yesterday. We stayed at the Shore Club and had several meals at Terrazza. Every time we went the food was great. The service and waitstaff we’re professional, welcoming, and on top of everything. Our favorite waiter in all Miami is Dmitri. He was attentive and friendly and remembered us each time we came to eat. It is such a shame that Shore Club and Terrazza are closing.

We have been here 4 times and it has today regained it’s status as my favorite brunch anywhere. The bellini’s are the best. My favorite food items include the sliders, polenta, salads and an amazing selection of desserts. Even the coffee is great.

I’m surprised this place doesn’t get 5 stars. My girlfriend and I came here for Sunday brunch. The food was very good. There was a nice assortment of breakfast and lunch options plus an omelette station. We had unlimited mimosas for 2 hours. The service was impeccable. We did not have to ask once to have our drinks refilled. Plates were taken off our table as soon as we were done eating. The experience was awesome and the view of the pool was spectacular! I will be back next time in in Miami!

I visited Terrazza a few weeks ago and had a lovely meal. I love the garden leading to this restaurant at the Shore Club. The highlight of my meal was the seafood salad. No seafood skimping on this salad! The seafood is all premium quality and loved that the vinaigrette was not too strong leaving the flavors of the seafood to come out clean. The pasta dish I tried was their fettuccine with meat sauce, delish! I found the service to be very attentive (hard to find in Miami Beach).

1 star because I can’t give ZERO on Unilocal!but this place is fail. We had a reservation for 10 people for a birthday dinner, we arrive around 9 PM, restaurant is pretty much empty in this first week of September in Miami, we get seated and ask to see Miami Spice menu. The server tells us that the restaurant only honor Miami Spice menu up to a group of 5 people! excuse me! I’ve been all around Miami for Miami Spice for years and never heard this before. It’s not on their or the restaurant’s website! We asked to speak to a manager (Eddy), you would think a manager at a restaurant like Terrazza at the Shore Club would know how to treat customers, provide service and meet the expectation? Nope you are wrong! this manager lacks all the industry principals and skills, refuse to honor the Miami Spice and refuse to serve us! Pretty much asking us to leave. Very unprofessional I don’t even expect from a high school drop! Restaurants are built on two major principles: serve great food and give great service. This restaurant owners fail to take the time to chart out what specifically they want their service to look and feel like or invest the funds to create a solid service program. Anyways, we ended up across the street at Bâoli where we didn’t have a reservation, and they Honored their Miami Spice menu. The food was great and the atmosphere was fabulous. They also have live music and DJ after 11 in their lounge area.
Last this to say: we are not tourist, we live in Miami Beach, and we always bring guests, family and friends and recommend places to people visiting from out of town. one thing I’m sure about is that I will Never recommend Terrazza to anyone until their fix their problems starting with the management and Honor their commitment to a program (Miami Spice). A separate complaint will be filed with (Miami Spice program) to investigate this behavior.

The shore club salad was good, way to many pickled beets, but still good.
The scallops were under cooked (twice! I asked for another serving) they were so salty the taste of salt lasted even after chewing mint gum and drinking a mojito!
Asked the server and buser for water three times and tea twice! The bread served before the meal was also so doughy that it stuck to your teach and seemed under baked!
Both deserts that were served to the table were good, the pasta my mother had wasn’t good either.
The server was polite but the manager Sept. 4^th stated that he looked at the scallops and they were cooked… they were pan seared and not cooked all the way, I know seafood Mr!!!
They were too salty and like a slimy-​gum texture. He didn’t force a 18% tip but still charged for the entire meal!!! Not Going Back or Recommending To any of my Broward or Miami-​Dade network! Unacceptable!

Quite possibly my favorite brunch I have been to in my life, ever. First off, Shore Club is the quintessential perfect South Beach hotel in my opinion aesthetically. Bright colors, comfortable areas to hang out, and attractive people. Now place a restaurant poolside with a perfect view of all that pool action, add bottomless mimosas and amazing food, and you have a happy girl. I spent my birthday doing the «Ladies Who Brunch» Sunday Brunch here which is $ 44 per lady (add $ 20 for males) and includes an impressive buffet selection and bottomless mimosas, bellinis, and bloody marys. They also serve up brunch on Saturdays and breakfast daily.
Favorite foods: the truffled grits/​polenta on a small plate (I think with pork belly), the octopus risotto small plate, watermelon salad, the amazing cheese display, every single dessert.
4 stars just because service was pretty slow on getting those bellinis re-​filled.

We had brunch here
The service was excellent and extremely friendly
The location is cool
The food was ok, huge portions but nothing special

Went on Sunday for lunch but found out only Brunch buffet without MENU. I don’t know what those dishes are and, attention, NO BUFFET CAN BE GOOD. When those dishes have already been made and sitting on a counter for some time, they go bad. Very disappointed. The service was horrible, too. The host wasn’t pay attention in the phone when I made reservation, nor did he treat me well when I was dining:(

Came here for the Sunday «Ladies Brunch» during a bachelorette weekend and it was one of the best brunches I’ve been to in a while. The whole «buffet» concept always has me a bit skeptical because typically the food isn’t always fresh but the chefs @ Terrazza definitely know what they’re doing because everything was perfection. My favorite dish was the beef short ribs over polenta. The beef literally melted in my mouth. I also enjoyed the made-​to-​order omelets; they used two eggs instead of three which made it a lot less «eggy» than most places, a good thing IMO. The restaurant also offers a wide array of salads (the kale and Caesar were my faves), dessert options and bottomless mimosas, bellinis and sangria. From now on, the brunch at Terrazza will definitely be on my to-​do list whenever I’m in Miami.

The food, and service is excellent! Patrick and Ashley gave excellent customer service, they were attentive!
My sister has stomach issues, and can not eat anything with spice! We informed Patrick of her issue, and he made sure the dish was not spicy! He double checked with the cook!
Ashley was not out server but when I
had asked the bus boy a question, he was not able to answer because of the language barrier! She heard the conversation, and asked if she can help! Ashley was paying attention to other customers besides her own! She is willing to help any customer!
I give the customer service a 10!

Everything that could go wrong here basically did. Since we stayed in this hotel, we thought we could get a quick bite to eat. We were wrong. Place was empty when we got here. Our food took forever to come. I think it took us about 2 hours from start to finish. I had the Benedict, which was good, but nothing special that you can’t find elsewhere. However, my friend that ordered toast with eggs, she waited forever. Her eggs came out first and she waited 40 minutes for toast! And yes, we did keep asking where her toast was. Finally the toast came out, and it was a platter with 10 slices! This was ridiculous, since no one else in our group even ate it, and my friend only needed 2 slices for her eggs. Big waste of food. Since the toast came out so late, she ate it with her cold eggs. She didn’t bother asking to get new eggs because if it took 40 minutes for toast, imagine how long it would take for scrambled eggs. To top it off, her eggs had egg shells. Our server was also new, but it didn’t seem like it was his fault. He was there when we needed him and it just seemed like he put in all the orders, and the kitchen just didn’t cook. I wonder if they all had 40 minute break in the middle of brunch time?
We did talk to a manager about this experience, and he explained that they just got a lot of new staff. Still… I would never eat here again. We were comped just my friend’s eggs and toast that she didn’t even finish due to egg shells Overall, terrible experience. Don’t bother with this place.

Definitely the place to go for Sunday Brunch! From the food, service, and the atmosphere of the place I was in awe. The unlimited Sangrias, Mimosas, and Bellinis were a plus to the delicious food. It was a buffet and man did I have all I can eat and drink, so totally worth it. I was in Miami for a week and my girls and I definitely agree this was one of the best meals/​deals we had. So worth it, I can’t wait to come back! :)

Terrazza, an evening Shore Club Style!
1901 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL
Terraza is a lovely venue were most of the seating overlooks the Shore Club’s infamous pool area giving your dining experience a bit of romance in a relaxed atmosphere. The service was terrific without being too overbearing, very knowledgeable of the menu and helpful in making recommendations. For cocktails I tried the Dreaming in a bubble, a champagne cocktail that tickles your taste buds, my friend tried the passion fruit margarita. We started with the Crudo tuna and avocado tartare, Kale salad with goat cheese grapes and onions followed by a Seafood salad (scallops, shrimp with red wine vinegar). For entrée we continued with the spinach Ravioli and Short Rib with polenta and cavatelli. Pastas perfectly cooked al dente and the seafood was wonderful. For dessert we had vanilla bean mascarpone and chocolate lava cake. A nice place for a romantic dinner or a night out with friends.
Inserder tips;
*Don’t forget to stop by the sky bar for a night cap to complete your evening!
*Sunday brush is from 8am to 4 pm for $ 44, ladies get unlimited Bellini’s and bloody mary’s, men will have an upcharge of $ 20.

mother sister and I had a very pleasant experience here on a Sunday evening. located inside the Shore Club, Terrazza is their italiano place. beautiful outdoor seating which must a be a treat during brunch. server was very attentive and helpful. granted there was only about 4 tables filled in the place but it was End of May and the Heat were in the semi finals. had a nice bottle of white vino, delicious panchetta brussel sprouts and a wedge salad for sister, RISOTTO AI FRUTTI DI MARE for myself, GARGANELLI for sister and fish for mama. everyone enjoyed their meal thoroughly and the server was attentive, finished off with sharing a tiramisu and some gelato. I should preface that I had a $ 200 GC for this meal which covered everything and tip included. would I return with paying with my own hard money? Sure, this time for a boozy ladies brunch no diggity no doubt

OK… So thank god I didn’t have to pay for my own meal. Went there for meeting. This place is defiantly 5 star restaurant. The place is gorgeous and the servers were really good. Very elegant and very south beach.
Why do I give 4 star? Because the food wasn’t that great compare to the price. I had sea food… Something. Lobster was tough and over cook as well as the rest of the seafood on my plate.
The appetizers were… OK. Brussel sprout thing was really crunchy… like, raw crunchy. Maybe its suppose to be like that and bitter? Green beans thing was also crunchy with tomato something on top… Chips looking thing was probebly from a bag. At least it taste like it.
The cheese and olive plater was good. Nothing special. I can get the same thing at Sam ‘s. Probebly for ALOT cheaper.

We had a really nice dinner here last night. Our waiter (Mike) was very knowledgeable about the menu and the specific wines on the wine list. He was attentive without being over bearing.
I was a bit of a pig and ordered 3 apps all of which were fresh, delicious and a reasonable size. For south beach it was pretty well priced as well.
My girlfriends steak was cooked to perfection and she loved the sauce it came with. I tried it and it was nice, but I prefer my steak to stand alone.
This won’t make my list of top restaurant, but I would go back. Dining pool side was a nice touch.

LOVE!
Ladies who brunch is the best thing that they have there on Sundays.
GHANI IS THE BEST SERVER EVER!!!

LOVE!
I ate here when this place was Ago and loved it. Now it’s even better! Chef Tom is a culinary ninja. I bow to him in his mastery of all things delicious.
Chris, my waiter, was wonderful. Start to finish I was expertly attended to. All the staff are polite, kind, and helpful. It is that old school, Italian kindness and hospitality that I miss terribly in LA. Love you guys!
NOW, onto the food.
When I eat here, it is no holds barred. I come to play.
For my first course on this particular evening, I had the burrata. It was so creamy and light, paired with crisp tomatoes, fresh arugula, and lightly seasoned and oiled. It was mouth watering. It may be the best burrata I’ve ever had.
My limited Italian has caused me to forget the name of the homemade pasta I had, but it was ricotta filled gnocchi with prosciutto and peas in a DELIGHTFUL peppery, cream sauce. I usually only eat half my plate when it’s pasta, but I will gladly admit that that I licked the bowl clean. Holy lord, that was good pasta. I talked to chef Tom between moaning and belly rubs, and told him how much I loved him. This pasta shames all other pasta.
Because I couldn’t control myself, I had a piece of tiramisu. The lady fingers were perfect, and the chocolate it was paired with balanced it perfectly. It was quite large, so I couldn’t finish it, but it would be a great dessert to share.
Finally, by sheer willpower, I fit in two glasses of good prosecco. At $ 12 a glass it is a steal in South Beach.
The patio is romantic and beautiful, the staff are wonderful, and the food is Michelin star, Beard award worthy.
When you are in South Beach, be good to your palate, and visit Terraza.
