AVIV

Unfortunately a disappointing meal. I was excited to eat here, because I’ve been to Solomonov’s other restaurant in New York and am a fan of his approach to Israeli food. The short rib was very dry. For the price, it should have been a well marbled piece of meat. The sauce lacked flavor. The everything trout was also dry (maybe overcooked?). The mushroom hummus was decent, but I’ve had better in Tel Aviv at much less fancy places. The sorbet was nicely flavored. The guava flavor stands out. The brown butter ice cream was too subtle. I have to believe that maybe the kitchen just poorly cooked our food. I don’t know. But, the restaurant doesn’t seem very full, and that might be an indication of the overall quality. Solomonov is a talented chef. If he saw what I was served (for the price), I think he would fly to Miami to fix whatever is going on.

First fine dining experience and Aviv did not disappoint! The servers were super attentive and took great care of us. The food was beyond amazing and each dish was very thought out. The schnitzel was out of this world. I would recommend for a higher-end dinner.

We had a wonderful meal here. I'd go back just for the Dorade fish. It was cooked perfectly with a skin that expertly crisped on the grill. The fries are superb. I'd love to learn how they're prepared so I can duplicate them at home. Every dish we had was fresh and full of flavor. We had lovely orange wine at a reasonably priced, 80 dollars. The ambiance is superb. Service was great. We look forward to visiting again.

Another knockout from Mike Solomonov! We headed there straight from the airport- best decision ever. The warm welcome set the tone for Miami, a gorgeous space, a team that’s both knowledgeable and genuinely kind, and food that’s as creative as it is delicious. Chef Collin and Mor’s passion practically shines off every plate. Highly, highly recommend.

In a city where almost every new trendy restaurant is Mediterranean inspired, it’s has been a journey to finally find a place that delivers. Aviv is absolutely incredible. We did the recommended Tayim sharing menu. The menu has incredible options (for meat lovers and vegans alike). Our food was delicious, service was attentive, and ambience perfect for socializing, while still being able to hear everyone at the table. I have been here twice already and have made this my go-to restaurant.

AVIV absolutely blew me away! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm, vibrant, and inviting. The service was top-notch — friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Now, the food… wow. The hummus was some of the best I’ve ever had — creamy, rich, and perfectly seasoned. The kebab was equally impressive: juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. Every bite was a treat. It’s clear that AVIV cares deeply about both the food they serve and the experience they offer. I’ll definitely be coming back.

From the crispiness of the skin if the dorade, the generously zaatar and olive oil seasoned pita, the amberjack crudo, the Turkish kofte, the pargiyot, to the melt in your mouth stuffed warm dates, the Israeli /middle Eastern inspired gorgeous food at Aviv is served with a Miami twist that works. Leaning heavier on the salads and sea foods and seasonings with lots of gluten free and vegetarian options, the dishes still manage to taste light and healthy and appropriate for the scorching sticky summer weather but delivers all the craveable decadent savoriness. Service was on point for the most part. While the space was light and airy with great lighting and acoustics, it still has that generic hotel restaurant feeling albeit very high end of the scale.

Aviv at 1 Hotel is truly phe-nom-en-al! Every detail, from the warm service to the stunning presentation, made this one of the most memorable meals I’ve had in Miami. We started with the mezze platter—so fresh and flavorful—and then devoured the dorado and wagyu shish kebab (no photos because they disappeared too fast!). The desserts were next-level—creative, decadent, and beautifully plated. Bonus points for the chic tea service that wrapped up the night perfectly. Aviv isn’t just a restaurant—it’s an experience. 10/10 recommend!
