Salt Cafe Miami Beach

They deceive and scam the customer. Although the menu clearly states a 20% service charge, when you ask for the bill, they don't print a receipt with a clear breakdown. Instead, a machine operated remotely by the waiter (you can't read it properly) tells you an amount due, leaving you unsure whether the 20% is already included or added later. Then, they ask for an additional tip on top of the 20% you already paid. This deception ruins the entire experience. I thought it might be an isolated incident, but after reading the reviews, it's clear this scam is widespread at this restaurant. Using confusion to defraud customers is unacceptable.

Excellent place. Healthy, delicious, and high-quality food. Sofi and Agus's service was impeccable; they were incredibly friendly and attentive at all times. A very good experience, I would definitely return.

We had such a wonderful experience at Salt Cafe! Our server, Frances, was absolutely exceptional. He was attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. His service truly made our experience even better!! The food was also delicious, everything we ordered was great. Highly recommend Salt Cafe, and definitely ask for Frances if you visit!

If you are looking for fantastic Italian cuisine in Miami Beach without a restrictive dress code, Salt Cafe is an absolute gem. We came in craving a great meal in a relaxed environment, and it exceeded expectations. The food was incredible—we had the crab cakes, fresh salads, lamb chops, and a classic fettuccine Alfredo that hit every mark. ​What truly made the evening, though, was Emilio. He was remarkably attentive, charismatic, and genuinely invested in making sure our dinner was perfect. If you are in the area, I highly recommend stopping in. Outstanding food and even better service!

The breakfast was delicious, the atmosphere is really nice, there is outdoor air conditioning which I think is one of the important things! The waiters are very nice and helpful with everything

Server was attentive. Food was delicious. Sorry forgot to take pics. Had tropical salad with salmon, cooked perfectly. The rest of our party had salmon entree, bolognese and a wrap. All enjoyed!!! Definitely recommend!

Food and atmosphere are really good but service needs a bit improvement but overall would recommend, they have good breakfast and coffees

Pleasant experience, delicious meal, excellent service 👍🏾 Very clean, attentive staff. I recommend it! Thank you so much to Belen and Jonathan! Love I'll be back

I live in miami & I’ve had this place on my list for a long time, was excited to finally try it out after seeing so much from their instagram. Sadly I was not impressed. Just another small overpriced miami beach cafe attatched to a small hotel. The food & drinks were okay, nothing special. My boyfriend hated his food. It was pretty dead on a saturday evening and service was fast. The only plus side was the weekend happy hour having half off drinks. But with super expensive parking and everything its still not worth it.

Service was good, food was mid mid mid. I had the Alfredo chicken Pasta had a stench. Ceviche was not bad. Also had the steak and eggs. Steak was okay, eggs were bland. Restaurant is inside a hotel lobby, you can expect people walking in and out. They do have weekend happy hour. Service was great, if food was better woulda rated this place higher.

"An absolute hidden gem in Miami! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The service was attentive and friendly without being overwhelming. Every single dish we ordered was bursting with flavor, perfectly cooked, and beautifully presented,especially the tuna burger.If you are in the area, do not miss this place. Five stars all around!"
