In Merrick Park, Coral Gables. Why would you go here. There is absolutely no reason as far as I am concerned. Unless I suppose if you are taking a group of kids out and don’t want to sacrifice food taste as the food is fine. Its just nothing is going on and there are so so very many better choices

Toscano Divino
This was one of those odd picks. Todd usually chooses something off the beaten path for wednesday nights. Im nt sure how he came u with this. Perhaps because it was a beautiful night and we wanted to be outside. SO here we were in the heart of Mary Brickell Village enjoying the people watching eating passable italian.
TK’s
what an incredible disappointment. Perfectly situated in the grove with a comfortable seating arrangement and a good location. But the food really went good. No promise, no need to ever go again.

Steak. Its about Meat. Its very cold, very expensive, very loud, and far down on my list of places to eat.
Palm d’or
With a reputation as thee place to go in the Gables this overpriced, poorly serviced, eatery in the Biltmore Hotel has failed to impress me twice in the past few years. If pretentious indicates class to you and if endless waits indicate careful service then come and enjoy the food. The last night we were there after an hour waiting on our appetizer the waiter eventually explained there was a big party being served.. huh??? and they were stingy on the desserts, as I was starving i asked for a few cookies from the dessert cart, i was informed that really they were after dinner and eventually four tiny cookies appeared at our table of four. again, huh???
El Novillo
El Novillo is one of those big argentinian steak houses where meat is king. Unfortunately, everything else really was lacking. Salad was watery and bland, choices of sides were almost non existent, but the meat was good.
