    The food is fantastic. The staff is fast friendly just plain groovy the wait staff treats you like Familia. DIVA. MICHELLE. ALFONSO , Even the great workers in the back.ALL GREAT PEOPLE. CAN'T WAIT TO COME BACK Ron and Sole are the greatest people to meet. You will find Roni there in the morning making these home made Mediterranean dishes from scratch. The bartenders are fast. Fun and friendly!

    Mojito’s made with rotten mint. I decided to ask to the waitress why did she use the mint like that, and her answer was: “oh no, the mint is fresh, is just smushed.” Come on really?! $36 for 2 mojitos, 20% tip included and not optional, for this kind of service?! Shame on you. 1st and last time here.

    Drinks are good. Wanted to have a breakfast at this place tomorrow but unfortunately they don't serve breakfast anymore

    Tldr: Mediocre tourist trap. The food isn't uniformly bad (we enjoyed the French fries; the baba ghanoush was decent), but it's generally low end. The tabbouleh did not taste fresh at all. The dessert we tried was frankly terrible. The wait staff was nice enough, but there was a noticable push toward the more expensive "sampler" menu items. Fortunately, we ignored those suggestions. When we saw what came in the sampler platters that were brought to other tables, it was obvious that they are very bad deals.

    We found this place while walking along the beach and I’m glad we stopped by. The shrimp tikka masala was very flavorful and came with 4 big shrimps. The chicken kabob was cooked to perfection. And Alfonso, our waiter, was such a sweetheart! We dined outside and it was nice and calm. Can’t wait to visit again.

    So good we went back twice! Awesome vibe with live music and great food! They have a lot of staff and were constantly busy. Javier on the bar was a non-stop mixologist! The white chocolate martini & Long Island ice-tea were our favorites. We had falafels, Chicken tikka & tandoori chicken with naan. Very tasty and chicken pieces were tender. Could've been a little more heat in the spice for our taste. The owner seemed to be a little publicly harsh with his staff which is why I'm giving a 4 instead of a 5

    The worst food possible to get. The food was stale and the taste !!! Well it wasn’t there at all. The only good that had taste was ketchup and mayonese. Pizza had no toppings even though specified. It felt like eating frozen food that was not even completely heated.

    The place is great and the staff is fantastic. I read some bad reviews, but we have been coming here for two years every time we visit Miami and it's just great. The happy hour is a wonderful deal and the drinks are definitely NOT watered down - just the opposite in fact. The food tastes great and it is on the expensive side. You can order from the gourmet burger place while having drinks and it's a great way to save a little and still have great food but the drinks are fantastic. Fully recommend.

    The quality of the food is super good for the price. This restaurant offers such a great variety for almost everybody. Great platters to share for when you eat with others too. Highly recommend trying the Maza platter, great value and delicious. The salads are chopped freshly on the spot and you can really taste that when you order. Super happy to have this beautiful restaurant right across from the beach!

    Came across this spot on the beach. My 1st time here. My table was dirty before we even sat down. I had to ask to clean it for me. Then the Flfood was way overpriced for what they serve. $26 for a basic salad with a small portion of chicken. Really? Tandoori Chicken was not spicy and the rice was hard and no flavor and at $24 is a rip off. Service was terrible for being so slow and almost an empty night. I asked our waitress for a refill and she forgot instantly and decided to go seat other customers instead. The chairs outside were so uncomfortable. They are terrible. For the prices you are charging food, you should at least be able to afford some new chairs or cushions. Then on top of all this bad experience you add a 20% service charge? Nope! Never again will I come to this place. There's way better restaurants with this kind of food for half the price and way better service. Oh and by the way, yeah it's by the beach but not on the beach so you don't really have a clear view of the ocean other than a parking lot and buildings.

    Roni’s on the beach was a great experience, and the server Alfonso was very pleasant and genuine. The Iraqi style tilapia was delicious, great flavor. Kalamata hummus and warm pita was just as good for an appetizer.

    I stopped by for an iced coffee at the place on my way walking back from the beach. It's a nice place with a sweet staff. The prices are fair for the beach and the food looks good.

    Great Mediterranean food, atmosphere and live music on the weekends. Location could not be better, across the street from the beach. My favorite dish is their hummus with steak appetizer. Your meal is not complete unless you top it off with Turkish coffee and baklava. Visit them once and you will be hooked, just as I am. I must warn you, because it is located in a tourist area, 20% gratuity will be added to your bill automatically. So far, I have always added a few more dollars to the tip because the waiters and waitresses have earned it.

    Amazing food by Roni and great service by Divah she was a fun waitress. Roni came out with desert homemade baklava. We love Mediterranean dishes and this hit the spot. Would highly recommend.

    Great location right across the street from the ocean makes you feel like you're in some sort of exotic foreign country. Ronnie's atmosphere inside will transport you to the vibe of Morocco. Good food but too bad they don't extend the breakfast eggs, waffles, and pancakes to the regular weekly menu instead they only keep it for the weekend. This place could be the go-to spot for the neighborhood and surrounding community if it always served breakfast all day sometimes people just want to come and chill while eating lite.

Upstanding what I get to the memory friend, what is your memory in the company of Angie

    Overall the place is a little bit expensive for what they offer but the truth is I love it. Also, they have great happy hour deals. I tried the margaritas and sex on the beach and both were great! The service was good and the spot is to die for. A nice place to pass by, drink and eat something quick and go to the beach.

  • 5/5 Angie Valdivia G. 10 months ago on Google
    Great spot in front of the beach! Super relax and good music, amazing service and excellent food. They also have smoothies and a bar with very good cocktails and exotic decoration. Definitely a place to return to every week.

  • 4/5 Luis c. 10 months ago on Google
    The food and service were excellent. The restaurant inside looks a bit crowded with the decorations and stored boxes on the side of the dining area. It probably deserves some reorganization of the dining area, going for a simpler decore And removing boxes, printer and laptop from the dining area. The food tastes like real middle eastern food. Our waiter was very attentive and prompt with our orders

  • 2/5 Kevin F. 6 months ago on Google
    First and foremost, there’s a 20% service fee - WATCH OUT - the machine still asks for a tip at the end. The wraps were okay but the fried calamari was awful. It looked like it came from a supermarket frozen pack, got microwaved in the back, and served to us. Environment was good and in front of the beach which may justify higher prices.

  • 5/5 Elizabeth M. 9 months ago on Google
    We went for happy hour (4-7 everyday) and enjoyed the $7 drink deals and $7 food specials. The falafel wrap and the drinks were great! Can't resist a bit of baklava either.

  • 5/5 umer n. 10 months ago on Google
    I had an amazing time at Roni’s by the Ocean. The drinks were fantastic and the bartender even made a special drink just for me. I was pleasantly surprised when they gave us a free dessert too! The prices were very reasonable, which made the experience even better. I highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a great time in Miami Beach
