MIKA Coral Gables delivers a chic and upscale dining experience with a stunning ambiance, marked by warm tones and elegant décor.
The meal started strong with soft, flavorful focaccia bread and an octopus appetizer that was perfectly tender, complemented by crispy potatoes and a delicious sauce.
The drinks impressed, quite strong, spicy and were beautifully presented.
For entrees, the branzino stood out for its massive portion size and delicious preparation, while the chicken entrée was equally satisfying. However, the pricing structure could feel steep, with sides not included and ranging from $12-$20, on top of entrées priced around $40-$70. There were entrees in the near $190 range as well.
Service was a highlight, with Jimena and Alina providing exceptional hospitality and attentiveness, elevating the overall experience. It's worth noting that MIKA has only been open for about two weeks and is still working through minor kinks, but their potential is clear.
Desserts looked tempting but weren't sampled this time. Overall, MIKA excels in quality, presentation, and service, making it a great choice for a special occasion or upscale night out.
