Overall a flop. I was very excited to go and have a family dinner at Tigre, but what a disappointment.
Overpriced, online menu is outdated, since the majority of the seating is outside, they should consider to put more fans to minimize Miami's summer heat.
The entrance is hard to find since the outside landscaping is out of control and I understand that Deborah is trying to recreate Tigre (BsAs) atmosphere, but it looks abandoned and it is very hard to walk on a very narrow, concrete stepping stone path.
The inside and the restrooms do not have a very good ventilation system, either. It smells like humidity and there are no napkins to dry your hands inside the restrooms. The lighting is intended to be warm and candid, however, after a while it is tiring for your eyes.
When it comes to food...as soon as we got there, the greeter was very emphatic that they would show us our table as soon as our friends closed their bar tab. Normally, in any other restaurant the bar tab is transferred to the table or closed at the table, but they do not make you wait until the bar tab is closed.
The food was not great, the portion for the swordfish (to share) $90.00 was not to share. The meloso rice has an overpowering red sauce that covers the rest of the flavors, and the dessert menu is is also outdated and not the greatest.
The service was okay, a bit slow and the fact some of them wear "regular" street clothes made it confusing to distinguish them from the guests.
I hope they can read my experience and improve their performance.
