Restaurant Review #3: «Komodo Miami»

Komodo Miami

Today my review will be about Komodo Restaurant, which is located in Miami.

    Address: in 801 Brickell Ave Miami, FL, 33131, United States.
    Website: komodomiami.com
    Telephone: +1 (305) 534-2211

I will judge the meals and the drinks on a scale from 1 to 5.

🐲 First of all, I would like to mention that the restaurant is called after Komodo dragons, that can be found in Indonesian Islands. So, as you can guess this restaurant serves Asian Fusion food.

🐲 The design of the restaurant is very modern and interesting. When you come in, the hostess invites you to wait at a bar while your table is preparing. And it doesn’t matter whether you reserved a table or not. We had a reservation for 9 pm, but were sitting at the bar for approximately 40 minutes. And only after we lost our patience and asked about the table, the girl at the reception took us to our table.

Ranking: 5

Appetizers we ordered from

Rolls / Raw / Sashimi

      🍣Tuna & Toro Roll 28$🍣
 Ingredients: tuna tataki, tuna toro, avocado, sesame, spicy mayo.

I can’t say that we tried the best rolls in the world. May be Komodo affirms that they are good at Asian Fusion cuisine, but Tuna and Toro Rolls I don’t recommend to order.

Ranking: 3

As a Main Course we decided to take Komodo’s most popular dish from the

Featured Item

         🍗Peking Duck 92$🍗
Cucumber, scallion, pancakes, hoisin.

Well, I am a HUUUUGE fan of Peking Duck and usually judge the serving very strict. However, I can say that Komodo didn’t disappointed me with this dish. It was too good - strongly recommend!

Ranking: 5

Desserts - 14$

            🍰Nutty Bar🍰
Almond sponge, salted caramel mousse, peanut, vanilla ice cream.

This was one of the most tastiest deserts I have ever tried.

Ranking: 5

All in all, I think that this place do not worth it’s money. Only the desert deserves it’s price. However, once you are there, look around as you can see there a lot of celebrities. For example, when I was there, next to my table Tyga was having dinner with his team.
