I do not recommend this place at all! I was turned away at the door for dress code that I clearly followed from the text they sent with instructions. I was told to go buy some jeans at the mall and come back. My girlfriend stayed and by the time I got back the appetizers were cold. The food is definitely not worth the prices. The only good part was the Miami party atmosphere. If you want to spend a thousand dollars on a mediocre time, this spot is for you. I won’t go back!!

Title: A Vibrant Culinary Experience at Kiki on the RiverRating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Kiki on the River delivers exceptional cuisine, a lively atmosphere, and the best party in town. The fish with potatoes and mussels was outstanding, and the vibrant ambiance adds to the overall experience. Just be prepared for the higher price point.

Nice and pleasant restaurant and bar. Music is great, we have so much fun. Place is pack but fun and worthy to stayed. Waitress are very nice. Food is excellent and delicious. Parking is tough. But the rest is great !

We went for lunch on a Thursday and our check was over $1000 for 4 people. Not an issue if we had received great service and good food; however the food was terrible and the service was very slow. The fish was terrible, no taste at all. The truffle fries were cold and stale, the crab cake was bland. The only item we really enjoyed out of our whole meal was the orange dessert, and even then, the presentation was lacking. The restaurant decoration is beautiful, but other than taking some Instagram photos, there is absolutely nothing else worth it at this place. Won’t be coming back 👎🏼

Very nice Ambiance. The wait staff was very attentive and extremely knowledgeable of the menu. My husband had the pork chop and I bad the lamb chop. Both were very well made and presented beautifully. Or the veggies were fresh and nicely grilled. We also had cocktails that were very good as well. A reservation is a MUST.

The view is amazing, the workers were nice. The ladies that work in the bathroom are kind and patient. The tall African American security guard in the front was very funny and nice, he made my night. The background music was nice, this was a vibe. The only complaint I have is that the food was overpriced and it was not that good.

Food is delicious and has a lot of flavor. We really enjoyed ordering everything and sharing in a family tradition. 2 hour limit to each table so be cognizant. Atmosphere is alive and seeing yachts ride by is pretty cool! Enjoy loud music and upbeat fast tempo.

Unfortunately, my experience at Kiki on the River restaurant was quite disappointing. While the setting along the river was picturesque, the DJ playing live gave it a great vibe, but the food was mediocre at best, lacking the flavors and quality I expected from a restaurant of this caliber. The flaming cheese was bland, the chicken was very plain and for the price paid, I won't come back again. The decor and vibe is very instagram worthy, but if you're looking for great food, I wouldn't recommend this place.

I don’t know why all the bad reviews I had one of my best nights of all time here. The music the atmosphere, everything was stunning! Chatted with sexy British girl dark hair in a red dress, what a night!

I booked a reservation for 6 on a Friday night at 10:00 PM to celebrate my birthday. As a courtesy, I called the restaurant to advise them we’re on the way and may be late because of a few accidents on the highway. Arrive at 10:16 pm and was told my reservation is at 10:30 pm which means the hostess changed my reservation time! We were advised to check in and since we’re “early” we’d be told when our table is ready via text. We waited for almost an hour and at 11:20 pm we were never seated and was over it at that point. I proceeded to the hostess and requested my cake that we dropped off and headed to the valet to retrieve my car. I guess the manager was advised of the situation and approached us to try and make things right. After much thought, I didn’t want to ruin my night so we decided to stay. We were FINALLY seated and proceeded to order our food. The service we received once seated was nice but felt as though it was only a result of us trying to leave after our frustration. The ambiance for photography is nice and the DJs music seemed to only cater to a certain crowd. It was a one time experience for me and I would not be returning. Thank you to the manager for making it right but they need to do better with their reservations especially because they charge you for a last minute cancellation.

It was a great experience as always. The employees are so courteous, provide an excellent experience even with picky requests. *TOW-AWAY ZONE* As far as Parking please do "Valet" (One $25 valid for the whole time there) to avoid any discrepancy whatsoever after dining. "Don't Park in the surrounding or you'll get Towed" or used the 'Paybyphone" App. Enjoy your Waterview!🍸

A vibe! Great place for a girls night out or dinner with your boo! Be ready to yell when trying to talk lol. The music was great but not really able to hear the person next to you. Food was amazing! Drinks were great too. You can get some framed photos also which was nice since we were out for a bach! Only thing i would say is some of the staff could dial down on the uppity attitude. Our waiter was great but some of the coordinators were.. ugh.

By the far the worst experience I have had at any restaurant. Took my wife to this restaurant for a Valentine’s Day dinner. After having paid $155 per person for a 4 course dinner. Turns out that most of the courses had seafood except the main course. My wife was unable to eat anything other than the main course. Even at that the food was not cooked well. It was almost raw. The server was very inattentive he would do a round every other 20-30 minutes. Horrible service. The last draw was when I ordered a drink and I took a sip of the drink with a straw and bit a piece of glass. Once I saw what was in my mouth, I immediately called the manager to make him aware of everything and requested the check. Will never come back to this place. Unbelievable, on such a special occasion they managed to give us the worst experience!

The food and cocktails are incredible! My group was visiting from canada and we ordered many items off the menu and none of them disappointed, we happen to be there during the Moroccan theme night and had the time of our lives! Hands down best place to dine and party in Miami! Service was absolutely incredible we were blown away. Everyone inside was classy and respectful which made our group enjoy our time even more.

An amazing restaurant on the river that is also a dance club. The food is delicious, the people are gorgeous and the Miami scene is in full force. They cater for a younger crowd between the ages of 21-40 and everyone is dress to impress. They only take reservation especially on the weekends. It is a must if you are ever in Miami. Great pics can be taken for Instagram. .

Great service. The energy and vibe is so hype, such a great time. Food was great, staff was kind and worked so quickly at getting us everything we needed.

Best place for a birthday dinner! From the music, the vibes, and the cool tree with a bunch of evil eyes. It was so beautiful and the bathrooms were literally what you pay for, super clean and modern. Food was 10/10 😋

I was very skeptical about this place because I saw the reviews and I didn’t want to be disappointed on my birthday however I was happy that we did. The food was amazing and the service was just wonderful. They were able to reseat us from our original spot and the it was a whole vibe. Would definitely come back and highly recommended

It’s looks aesthetically pleasing with the beautiful decor and music. Drinks were great but food was okay. Nothing crazy on their menu that you can’t get anywhere else. I made a reservation and still had to wait for a table? The service was not so great, I felt like I didn’t get the attendant as the service charge is 21% to tip. If that’s the case, please don’t neglect the customers.

This is a restaurant to came and visit once. Atmosphere is good . Food is extremely expensive and not that great. Great decorations. Most people came to take photos for Instagram. I really don't any other reason. Is nothing worth at this restaurant. They are more bounce security in your back making you feel so uncomfortable.. Won't be coming back ever.

Kiki really blow our minds away. The ambience is super cool and great music. The food was amazing. Best Greek food I had ever have. The service is the best of the best. My husband and I had such a great time at Kiki. We are definitely coming back. Is our new favorite restaurant.

Ambiance-EXCELLENT very exciting place for dinner. But that's where it ends. Service was SNAILS PACE. Food was good. Music extremely lacking. They played the Macarena and a bunch of old songs like 60 and 70's?! ONE DRAKE song, same song twice Really. I ordered a drink (pictured below) called "ONE Night Stand" oh I thought it was going to be great. It came in a container that was a pig (NOT SEXY) FULL OF ICE NO DRINK.

Perfect lunch date with my hubby! First time here and we're already planning a return visit. We were seated quickly. Our table had a great view. Good music playing and a great vibe. Our server, Adrian was amazing! He made us feel comfortable and gave great menu recommendations. Excellent sevice! The grilled octopus was delicious and prepared just right. My hubby enjoyed his filet and lobster, both cooked perfectly. I had a tuna steak that was amazing. The baklava for dessert was so good!!! The cocktails are excellent and a good variety to chose from. Can't wait to return!

A must go in Miami if your are into food & party. The food is not the best, however, the experience will outweight the food quality. I will put emphesis on the experience, it is unbelievable. You can spend here from $200-$50,000 or more in this place, depending on your budget or just stand back and enjoy the experience.

1- make a reservation 2- be prepared to spend at least $90 per person for a 2-hour dinner (including the 18% "service fee") 3- it'll be a little loud due to the music, so be warned (conversation across the table may be challenging, but the music is good) Kiki's is fun,and has a great view of the boat traffic on the Miami River, the music is upbeat and lively, and the food is worth the price. Enjoy!

Service: The service at KIKI on the River is a mixed bag. While some staff members demonstrate a commendable level of attentiveness and knowledge, there are inconsistencies in the overall service quality. During peak hours, there can be noticeable delays, and the staff, though generally courteous, may not always exhibit the level of attentiveness expected from a restaurant of KIKI’s caliber. Atmosphere: Set along the Miami River, KIKI on the River offers a scenic location. However, the atmosphere can feel somewhat divided between striving for a high-end feel and catering to a more casual, party-like vibe. This dichotomy, while appealing to some, might not resonate with those seeking a more cohesive dining experience. While we were seeking a loud party atmosphere with a good vibe of guests- it didn’t deliver this last visit, in comparison to our last visit there. The outdoor seating offers pleasant views but can become quite crowded and noisy, detracting from the overall ambiance. Food: The menu at KIKI on the River presents a range of Mediterranean-inspired dishes. While some dishes are well-executed with fresh ingredients, others lack the expected flair and creativity. The presentation is generally good, but the flavors and textures don’t always hit the mark, leading to a somewhat inconsistent culinary experience. Portion sizes vary, with some dishes offering good value and others seeming overpriced for what is delivered. Drink: The bar at KIKI on the River offers a decent selection of cocktails and wines. The cocktails, although creative, can sometimes be a hit or miss in terms of balance and flavor. While there are some standout options, others may not live up to expectations, especially considering the price point. Price: The pricing at KIKI on the River is on the higher side, which is not unusual for its location in Miami. However, considering the inconsistencies in food quality, service, and the overall experience, some guests might find it lacking in terms of value for money. The restaurant seems to bank heavily on its location and ambiance, but for some diners, this might not fully justify the premium pricing. Overall:KIKI on the River in Miami offers a scenic dining location with lots of potential, but it falls short in delivering a consistently high-quality experience that justifies its pricing. While it has moments where it shines, particularly in certain dishes and aspects of its location, there is room for improvement in service, food consistency, and ensuring a more cohesive atmosphere. You can at least go give it a try and feel it out while having cocktails and if you feel like it’s your vibe then stay and dine and potentially party into the night.

This place exceeded my expectations. When we first got there the valet experience was not all that. But the staff on the inside made up for this. We got the Oysters, its my second time and I wish I got more. It was delicious. We mostly got the lamb chops which was Amazing. We were advices to eat with out fingers and we sure did. I took home my remainders and it tasted better the next day. The drinks were great as well. My best part was how attentive and special the servers made me feel. They removed all dirty dishes once we were done. Its was truly an amazing experience at this place. Will be coming back.

Celebrated my birthday this past February. Food was excellent can say otherwise. We definitely love the place, just a bit too crowded at the front bar but besides that I definitely recommend Kiki’s.

This place is a whole vibe! It's packed at night but a whole lotta fun! Great people watching, amazing dancing/music, and the food was fantastic! We had a large party of 16 people so I always worry I won't get to actually experience the food with a set menu, but Kiki didn't disappoint! We had a full course selection from apps to dessert and EVERYTHING was fantastic, like my greedy butt didn't even take pics cause it was so good but a reason to go back! Service was also on it, despise being busy. I would def go back in a heart beat! Enjoy.

Visited with a few friends and we thoroughly enjoyed this Resturant/club/bar lol. Literally go there for the vibes, the music is way-too loud for any meaningful conversation but the DJ played a variety of music that would getting you off your seat dancing. I was not too hungry at the time we went but i suggest having a platter of some type finger food. Overall, i would love to visit again!! Great concept We also all got captain hats for one of the performances, pretty dope!

Food was ok not my favorite but the service is amazinggg I didn’t get to ask for their names he was so sweet and the lady taking our orders was very professional and friendly loved the service the ambiance was great

Amazing! The food was excellent, we choos the grilled fish of the day and the tuna tartare and we were 100% satisfied. The location is magic, very romantic and on the river You can appreciate the boats going up and down from your table. For sure I suggest to try Kiki on the river .

I discovered this restaurant through a friend who had urged me to go numerous times. It’s a beautiful place with a panoramic view of the river in downtown Miami with boats coasting by. They have incredibly imaginative, cocktails, unique recipes with layers of flavors. I highly recommend the appetizer crispy shrimp. The jumbo shrimp were crisp but light and perfectly prepared with delicate seasoning. The lamb chops were highly recommended by our waiter and I definitely recommend them to you. I tried their salmon and I probably should’ve looked at the ingredients a little bit more. I love Greek recipes so as soon as I saw feta, I was all in, however, it was served topped with tomato sauce and I really didn’t like it. Neither of us did. The salmon was perfectly prepared, but I don’t recommend this, a combo of tomato sauce and salmon - it just didn’t resonate. The asparagus risotto is new on their menu and quite flavorful, delicious. The tiramisu is served to tableside and was a favorite of ours, (but you must have a sweet tooth). All in all, I recommend the restaurant for its breezy waterfront setting, creative cuisine and great service.

One oOne of the tastiest restaurants offering seafood dishes and mushroom risotto. The place is very noisy you can't hear your friend at the table but the ambiance is nice, there is a bar that you can see while you are at your table and also the restaurant on the river you see the yachts partying. On weekends there are some yachts stopping at the restaurant and they serve alcoholic drinks. Different and unique ambiance 😍✨

Clubby vibe, good drinks. Nothing crazy special— service was a bit pushy. And the air conditioners drip all over the table. Not an amazing vibe but good for large groups

Javier is the best waiter!! He treated my boyfriend and I so well, he made our time truly amazing here. I definitely recommend this place. The atmosphere is amazing, we sat right next to the water and had beautiful views. Food is outstanding as well! Love you Kiki.. until nxt time❤️

I go to kiki once or twice a month but the service I received yesterday was the best out of the 6 months I’ve been coming here! My server was Dawson he was very helpful and interacted with our table recommending the dishes he thought we would like. He made sure we had the best time ever. Kiki exceeded my expectations this last time and I couldn’t be happier to have spent my birthday here!!!!

I had a late dinner at Kiki on the River. The restaurant was loud and festive with sparklers and smoke being blown every 3 minutes. Aside from the chaos, the food was actually delicious. An array of seafood options. The octopus was a highlight. I paired it with the shrimp orzo for the perfect seafood orzo salad. If you want Jersey Shore vibes and a Mediterranean twist, go to Kiki’s on a Saturday night.
