    My first time trying snapper which was the daily catch, it was amazing! So flavorful. Plus, you can’t beat that ocean view. Great atmosphere. The waiter was so nice and helpful with decision making.

    Located right behind the boardwalk with a lovely ocean view, food was top notch, and they helped me pull off a birthday cake surprise for my boyfriend! Highly recommend the fish and grits as well as any of their cocktails. All around amazing food and exceptional service ☀️

    Food took over 40 minutes to come. Starter was brought out with main and was cold. Fish tacos and Brussels sprouts were terrible. Pizza just barely edible. Waiter was polite and tried his best but cannot recommend this restaurant for food. Maybe just go for a drink as it is nice location.

    What a stunning restaurant with the best ocean views in all of Miami! We had a few minutes wait as the restaurant was busy, but the experience was excellent and definitely recommend Ocean Social. Food was delicious and the frose cocktail, WOW! Great service and atmosphere. I'll definitely be back! Thank you for a wonderful lunch!

    This resto needs a lot of work. It makes me very sad because Malibu farms used to be an incredible spot. The ambience was a solid 4/10. Given that the restaurant was completely empty our food took an absorbent amount of time to cook. I hope they can turn it around.

    Once again, just like the old Malibu Farm, terrible service. The place was near empty and we were not offered water or drinks. No acknowledgment by the wait staff at all. Someone came after us and was immediately helped. Left and had a great time at Nobu. I won’t go back. It’s a shame because I love the view there. Sad thing is usually I get great service in Miami and I’m known as a great tipper. Their loss.

    Love this spot. Come here every time I’m in miami. Food is fresh and delicious and so is the view. On my most recent visit the host could not find my reservation, some type of glitch with computer. I was able to show my open table reservation, and the hostess seemed a bit frustrated but said I would be seated next. She then proceeded to inform me that to dine I needed to wear a cover up top. I was wearing a one piece and denim shorts. I went on to explain that I didn’t have anything else and as I looked around there were people in mesh coverups and quite honestly I felt that I was even more covered than them. I asked her what the difference was if I wore a tank top and shorts and she said it was management but that “it was fine…” Once seated there were at least two women with bikini tops at tables adjacent to mine. I decided to just let is slide and not let this encounter ruin my morning or my vacation, no need to let someone’s attitude or bad day ruin mine. However, since she is the face of the restaurant for all patrons coming through, management should speak with her!

    Absolutely not worth the money this spot. Very slow staff, when ordering alcohol they ask again several times and do not know the names of drinks, extremely inattentive. Dishes are brought with a long wait, although the restaurant is 30% full. Crab pasta is disgusting. So much garlic inside that you're just surprised that it's cooked by the chef. They managed to add some cabbage to the spaghetti. Well, this is not compatible food, who taught the cook from it. And finally, sticky tables, to which hands stick. In short, this place is a total disappointment. I will never come again and will not recommend to anyone.

    We really wanted to like this experience for our Valentine's Day. What a terrible waste of money it ended up being. They offered a pre-set menu with 7 courses for a lot of money.....but I thought it is Valentine's Day, and lets splurge. The first course arrived after 30 minutes, with the second course, 1.5 hrs after that. They skipped one course and delivered the last two out of order. Food was cold in most cases and lacked the presentation that was expected. Worst of all was that at the end, when we mentioned all of this to the manager, there was nothing that he could do. I told them that for a $500 plus dinner I should be expecting better and that I wasn't going to leave a tip....well we had no choice here either South Beach, FL automatically adds gratuity whether good or bad service we were told......The waiter mentioned that if we weren't happy to leave a review.......well here you go, I hope others do not get the same experience, better yet avoid this place all together!

    Horrible service. We waited for 20 minutes and not one person checked on us. They were charging $175 for a prix fix menu but they shouldn’t have charged $20. We finally left after not one person acknowledged us.

    The restaurant was not at all what we expected. We thought this would be a quaint oceanside restaurant with peaceful ambience. The sound system was loud and directly over our booth playing very cheesy 80s music. Others in nearby customers complained and moved. The tables were worn and had something sticky on them. The outdoor patio had a faint fish smell that would catch you off guard. The website was misleading about the vegetarian options they had. After spending $50 for bread service 6 pieces of bread ( tasty ) and a beer and glass of wine we decided to cut dinner short.

    First there wasn’t a Dj at brunch - The bottomless Mimosas aren’t self led, so you’ll need to flag down your waiter for 45 mins to bring you a refill mimosa each time, only for 45 mins. Lastly the food was not good. My egg order came out wrong and the bacon was over baked and dried out. The only silver lining here would be the beach front view. Cheers!
