Mistora

I had the most exceptional server at this restaurant last night. Delyet was beyond accommodating, considerate and friendly. She obviously cares about providing excellent service. My food was not as appetizing as I would prefer, but because of the excellent customer service experience, I will be returning and continuing to tell others about this restaurant. The cocktails were also magnificent.

Amazing food and vibe. The music is perfect and service so good! I also love how they’re open late :)

Of course valet parking. Very small intimate space. I sat at the bar. Kam, my bartender was very nice. The specialty drinks were just juice. Don’t waste your money on The Phreshly Drinks menu. No alcohol present whatsoever. The sidecar I ordered made up for that other drink. The calamari was rubbery and unseasoned.

It was pretty early when we walked in. We were the only guests for about 5 minutes . We had reservations, however, we like to sit at the bar whenever possible and this worked out well for us. We ordered our cocktails, which were excellent. The tapas creamy kale dip was absolutely delicious. We ordered the Short Rib entree……..this was to die for. Staff were attentive and made us feel welcome and at home. Overall this was a great experience and highly recommend it to anyone! We will be back again.

As you can see from my profile, I do not leave reviews on Google. However, last night's experience was so laughably bizarre I would be remiss to not inform other potential patrons. I dined at Mistora with a small group and upon arriving, we were sat in the back event space. Other than our group, there were no other patrons in the restaurant at 7pm on a Tuesday evening. The back room we were dining in did not have any air circulation and the air vents were visibly closed. We asked if the air could be turned down and the staff said yes. But instead of turning the air down, they simply brought in a giant orange industrial fan. Not only did the air remain warm and humid but now we had to talk over a loud industrial fan. We ordered a round of drinks immediately which did not arrive for at least 30 minutes (keep in mind we were the only patrons in this restaurant at this time). We ordered our food next, which took another 45 minutes to arrive. My dish was the jerk chicken, priced at $27. What arrived (pictured in this review) was a large mountain of rice and beans and a tiny serving of pre-sliced chicken. The rice was flavored well but chicken was over cooked, dry, and hard to cut due to the skin being rubber. The jerk chicken is advertised as including a mango medley and fried plantains. As you can see from my photo, the dish did not come with these items. A friend at the table ordered the lobster mac and cheese, priced at $40. This dish was nearly inedible due to the macaroni being over salted and the lobster having no flavor at all. When some of the group went to use the restroom, they returned to inform us that there was no toilet paper in the establishment. The staff offered us cocktail napkins to use instead. Keep in mind, there is a publix just down the road where toilet paper can be purchased! But no, cocktails napkins are apparently good enough. I don't want to know what this is doing to the septic system. The restaurant is also oddly dark. This is not due to a lack of lighting fixtures since there are lovely sconces and basket-style chandeliers throughout, however none of those fixtures were powered on. The only light came from a few canned lights in the ceiling, making reading the menu very difficult. All things considered, our server was kind and helpful so these complaints do not reflect on her. It's obvious this is a failure at the management level. Mistora, how on earth do you run out of toilet paper in a restaurant with no other patrons? And not just that, why did no one immediately go to publix to purchase more? It tells me that whoever is overseeing the operations is either incompetent or simply doesn't care. It also begs the question of what else is sub-par or in violation of health code standards that we simply did not see or notice. I will never dine at Mistora again and I cannot recommend anyone else dine here either.

Dee and Kyree were amazing! Definitely get the mussels and the ruby rush and lingering dust cocktails. Stay away from the croquettes….. definitely an atmosphere that feels cozy.

Really like this place, definitely a hidden gem! The food was delicious, the owner was super cool! The hookah is very reasonable which I loved that! Would definitely come back!

They have potential, but the kitchen and bar were super slow. Food and drink took 2 hours. We got here at 9:30pm and here it is 11:30 and I’m just getting my dish. The dish had no flavor and it was sweet.

From the moment I walked in, I knew this restaurant was going to be a vibe. The ambiance was warm and inviting, with a perfect balance of cozy elegance and modern style. The food was nothing short of spectacular and the staff that served it was extremely attentive. The menu offered a great variety - must try the churro's for dessert!! Adding to the evening was the music, which was perfectly curated to complement the mood. Grab some friends and go catch a vibe!!

Of course valet parking. Very small intimate space. I sat at the bar. Kam, my bartender was very nice. The specialty drinks were just juice. Don't waste your money on The Phreshly Drinks menu.

We really wanted to give this location a fair chance since it just opened, even after reading some of the poor reviews--but unfortunately, our experience fell short. We were one of only two tables in the restaurant, yet service was extremely slow from the start. At one point, our server left to check what was still available on the menu, and after 20 minutes we still didn't even have water. When I asked aloud for a cocktail menu, the bartender didn't acknowledge me and instead went to find our server, which made things very awkward. After waiting 25 minutes without any progress, we decided to leave.

Horrible service, long waits (1 hour for drinks, over 2 hours for bad food), and zero communication about the hold-up. Cold, burnt food and cheap wine was swapped for expensive bottles. When they ran out of food, mystery substitution dishes were brought without asking if it was okay. Avoid at all costs.
