Went with the Master Splinter of Yelp, Mr. Johnny T for a weekly chit chat on all things Yelp. We were in the area and decided to stop in. You must enter through the hotels lobby to get to the restaurant. It was about 11AM and there wasn't anyone else there....I thought that was a bad sign from the get go. We decided to roll the dice and sat down. We got a table outside to enjoy this wonderful Miami weather. The seating outside has about 6 fans, so it keeps you cool. It is located right next to the pool. I had the blueberry whole wheat pancakes. WOW. The portions are huge and for South Beach the prices are reasonable. The pancakes were a little burnt on one side, but it was fine. The blueberry and banana foster on top totally drowned out the flavor of a little over cooked pancake. The had chocolate chip banana pancakes - which I look forward to trying next time. The service was a little weird, and felt almost forced. They were almost TOO attentive, which for me personally - is a bit bothersome. If you are laying it on that thick, it feels.... unnatural. Overall the food is great for breakfast...when I am back on that side of the bridge I look forward to trying the lunch menu.

Words cannot express how quickly I have fallen in love with FIX ... Let me begin with the fact that the place was relatively empty when we arrived. Luckily, I read "Blue"'s review and knew not to be hesitant of this. We sat in the back near the patio area. Very cozy despite the fact we were on the Beach. We were in for a real treat. There was a small group sitting across from us doing an interview, we were delighted with breakfast and a show! They have everything and anything you could possibly want for breakfast ... and lunch too. The Rice Krispies French Toast was just a little slice of heaven on my plate. Unfortunately, that was all I was able to eat this visit. But I will definitely be returning AND bringing along the Fam!

Stayed at the hotel next door, but regretted it the minute we walked here: fantastic outdoor patio seating by the pool. Very casual, modern food. Between the four of us, we ordered the sliders (with bacon and great sauce!), the Ahi Tuna (can't go wrong with that), and the tuna tacos, which probably were the best out of already great selections. Add to that some mojitos wonderfully done and freshly made lemonade. Staff member / bartender super friendly and funny. Nice place! Waterfall and outdoor area beautiful and calming. Service impeccable. Sorry we did not stay at this hotel. Made our visit here complete.

I was the only customer for a 3:00 pm lunch, so I sat at the bar and enjoyed the company of the bartender/waitress Arlene. She brought my Greek Salad and I had overlooked the absence of lettuce in the description. It had everything you'd expect except the lettuce. She offered me a free side of beautiful field greens and I was "FIXed!" Upscale casual. Cool and comfy with a nice Collins St. view!

Almost reasonable for breakfast (but nothing exciting, and the continental option was a sorry thing with 1 Danish, 1 croissant, no jam, no fruit). Very very limited options for dinner. Service was friendly but sloooooooow.

The service was impeccable! The dining area is I. The back of the hotel and not off Collins which took us by surpriSe very tiny pool area but they made up for it with the food. Service- average for Miami. Lag time was bordering appropriate but so friendly ! Definite place to stop for a quiet meal that's still great! Highly suggest it. They have a brunch menu that ends at 11 and then switches to lunch

Improvements have been made....especially with the service. Came here again recently and was pleasantly surprised by the service improvements. The food is still good too. Lot of creative and healthy options here. I saw someone ordering the red velvet pancakes and I will definitely be back to try them.

My boyfriend and I have been here for brunch a few times. It is always quiet and most of the tables are empty. We always sit in the back by the pool which is generally relaxing. We love the brunch menu - the goat cheese omelet is great. The fruit bowl was fresh. Bloody marys are good, bellini's are decent. They are known for their rice krispie French toast - which was very tasty but too much for one person as a meal. I want to go back to try the red velvet pancakes and chocolate-peanut butter pancakes. Would recommend going with a group so you can try a bunch of different things. Lunch sandwiches always look yummy too

The outdoor patio is a relaxing place to have brunch, its quite and the sound of the fountain is very peaceful, especially if you have been up partying all night. The Bloody fix is amazing. I had two. I had the kurobota pork belly & quail egg benedict which was a great combination of flavors and textures. Yum! The only thing I would suggest is getting a side, as the items do not come with one and you will probably want more to eat if you don't. The potato hash was smaller than expected, so I would suggest getting that along with your order. The rice krispie french toast was AMAZING and definitely worth the trip just to have that. The coffee is atrocious. My friend ordered an americano and our server brought out a carafe of regular coffee and poured it into a mug... it was worse than diner coffee. watery and bitter. I know my coffee and this was ALL wrong. Our waiter was Zor. I think he had been up all night, though I found him funny and helpful regardless of his puffy red eyes. Get some eye drops dude. lol Oh! And they said on the phone that they would let us park with the valet, but when we got there they said no valet unless we were staying at the hotel. Boo! Considering it took my friend about 20 minutes to find a spot. Just tell us "no" then we know what to expect. That was pretty lame!

Just had a very nice brunch at Fix on Saturday. After being caught in bad traffic on the Causeway causing my husband and I to be a half hour late for our reservation, I was very relieved that they had no issue seating us. Our waiter was very nice, but don't go there if you're in a rush. We were fine with the leisurely pace and it was really lovely sitting out by the pool. We came with the Travelzoo deal and it was definitely worth it. I started with a bellini and my husband had a mimosa. Then we waited a very long time for my seasonal berries starter and his seasonal fruit plate. Both were filled with fresh fruit and it was a nice, light way to start the meal. As much as I wanted to dive into the Rice Krispie-crusted French Toast or the Red Velvet Pancakes, I was just not in the mood. However, I was very happy with my Mushroom Omelet which was the perfect size for me (i.e. not diner-enormous) and had some unique flavors going on. My husband had the Bacon Cheeseburger Kobe beef sliders, which he enjoyed. The portion of three sliders was substantial and it came with fries. I would definitely eat here again if I were a guest in the hotel or happened to be in the neighborhood, but it was quite a trek from Broward.

The rice-crispies-covered french toast really is all that. I enjoyed sitting outside in the back patio and soaked my feet in the pool with my bellini while my order came out to the table... the servers were very friendly and attentive. our lattes were yummy, and the gazpacho had a nice smokey/roasted flavor to it. i'll be back when i need a brunch again :)

We were prepared to receive a not so friendly service based on some of the reviews mentioned and because we bought a Travelzoo deal for the Brunch. We were wrong! We were greeted as soon as we walked into the Blue Moon Hotel. We sat outside by the pool - very nice & quiet. Service - Excellent! The waiter Zor(sp?) was very attentive and accommodating. He provided excellent service throughout. Then the manager & the chef also came out to greet us. Food - Excellent! We had the fresh fruit plate, fresh berries, Rock Shrimp & Stone Crab Omelet (a must! It had lumps of the crab meat, large shrimps, & the omelet was not dry at all!) and the wild mushroom, shrimp & bacon omelet, a glass of fresh squeezed OJ(w/ refills), & a Bellini. Price - Very Good! The prices on the menu were reasonable; typical SoBe prices. We did use the Travelzoo Brunch deal ($29) which came w/ 2 Healthier Start, 2 Entrees, and 2 Drinks. However, we would definitely go back for the food even w/o a deal. They definitely did not discriminate us for using the Travelzoo deal like some places do. They provided top notch service along with their top notch quality of food.

I was so excited to find a new brunch spot nearby. It was a Sunday and everyone was out back... The server was prob hungover bcuz he was taking forever and could not manage the few tables he had. He went inside a few times without bringing back a menu. ??? I continued to wait until I finally got up and practically yelled at him for not bring me one or even noticing I had been waiting for him. He apologized profusely and in his defense said he was the only waiter blah blah blah. (There were only 3 other tables besides me.) The menu on yelp is not an updated one and they didn't have what I wanted. I ordered the egg sandwich. My order took FOREVER! I have no idea why since it was slow. He even brought me an extra mimosa because it was taking soo long. With out making this review even longer: Service sucked, food mediocre. Potatoes bland. Wasn't charged for my drinks. But nice chill spot...

Very good for breakfast. Relaxing atmosphere good options for breakfast. We had Benedict it was good but simple eating a lot in SoBe you get used to creatively loaded dishes also tried rice crispy french toast. That wasn't that great. Was lucking crunchiness from rice crispy and was a little bit chewy. I also ordered a Bloody Mary and this was super good so overall experience was good. I might come back for some pancakes

Went for breakfast and enjoyed it! My friends and I ordered blueberry pancakes, red velvet pancakes, and the rice crispy french toast. Everything was delicious. The server (forgot his name) was amazing and so nice!! I would recommend ordering a few dishes and sharing because the portions are so filling because of all the bread haha. Great food and nice, funky atmosphere! Loved it!

OH NO FIX! We came for breakfast and your food was fantastic. We were SOOO happy with it that we decided to come back for dinner the next evening as we were only staying up the road. BUT the dinner was nowhere near as good. My steak was overcooked for medium rare and drowning in too sauce with unimaginative sides. My partners fish was equally just so so. For the price we were expecting better, I have to say the sight of an empty restaurant at 8pm should have warned us off but we believed in you. So yeah, great Rice Krispie french toast and that pork thing was amazing. If it had just been breakfast I'd be looking at 4, possibly 5 stars. It's such a shame dinner didn't live up to the price tag.

Hands down, one of the best breakfast sandwiches I've ever had. The service was above and beyond and the mostly champagne mimosas hit the spot. Can't wait to come back and try other dishes.

This is the restaurant/ bar in the hotel where we stayed during our weekend in south beach. There were so many things right with this place! Breakfast - as a guest you could order a continental or choose from the menu. I had a fantastic egg white omelet with wild mushrooms and goat cheese one morning which was well worth the price. We tried the eggs benedict with shredded beef. One morning I simply had a side of bacon and hash browns. Everything was delicious. You can sit on the front patio area, in the main restaurant, or on the back patio which overlooks the tiny pool. This is good at night when the water feature is lit up, but kind of awkward during the day when people are sunbathing... and you are eating and gawking. Although, it would have been nice to have waiter service at the pool while we were laying out, but I digress. The bar area is separate but overlooks Collins Ave which is great people watching. They have a fancy power juicer which they use for all the cocktails which have juice (orange, lemon, lime). Mmm fresh juice in a cocktail, what a novel idea. The bartenders are all RAD. Great mixologists; very friendly, funny and will suggest fun, delicious drinks any time of the day. They make great shots and have experimented and tasted everything they offer. These guys helped make our stay fun!

Absolutely horrible service! Came in with a group of 10 for brunch and were the only people in the restaurant. It took over 30 minutes before they even got us drinks. The food was all mediocre at best and not worth the 2hours + that we sat there.

Came here with some friends one from out of town for brunch, the place is really cute and nice but the food is nothing to brag about. The service was great and our waitress was friendly on the other hand the chef was kind of pushy and annoying. We had ordered the chicken sandwich, the omelet and eggs benedict (did not like) and we had ordered the rice krispie french toast and he made us immediately try them when we wanted them for dessert and the truth is they kinda sucked and had no flavor..sorry but wont be going back here.

Ended up here for brunch solely due to finding a great deal on Travelzoo - $29 for two "healthy" items, 2 entrees and 2 drinks. My friend I chose to get bloody marys (normally $10), which were very good. We also picked the red velvet pancakes ($13) and the eggs benedict ($13) for our entrees, as well as the berries ($10) and pastry basket ($10) for our "healthy" options. One thing - I don't know if it was a mistake or not, but the bread basket, per the menu, came with juices and coffees for us both. So in the end, for $29 (plus $12 for tax+tip that we added) we got a TON of food. The highlight for me were the pastries, which were all delicious, as well as the aforementioned bloody marys. The pancakes were good, but VERY sweet. And the benedict was fine - nothing to write home about, but I've certainly had worse. The service was good, and the location was very convenient for where we were staying. Would I have wanted to pay full price for the meal? Definitely not. But for about $20 a person all in, including a drink, it was certainly worth it. I wish we had been offered to sit outside, since the indoor eating area is just mediocre. And the place was absolutely empty on a beautiful day, which doesn't seem like a great sign. I probably won't be running back on my next visit to Miami, but at half off it'd be hard to turn down.

Fix is the newly renovated restaurant inside the Blue Moon Hotel. The wooden floors and bistro tables give it a modern French country vibe. The music is relaxing and played at a low enough volume to have a conversation. Be sure you get a table close to the pool with the waterfall. Breakfast is served daily from 8:00 to noon and being that breakfast is my favorite meal of the day they received an extra star based on my love affair with carbs. We started with hot coffee (big cups but could be a bit stronger) and oatmeal. They use steel cut oats, the good stuff. Oatmeal was a nice big bowl and cooked to creamy perfection. The downside is the price. If I recall correctly, close to $10 for just a bowl of oats. Whole wheat pancakes are hard to find so I couldn't pass them up. They were moist and served with warm caramelized bananas on top. The inside of the pancake actually had a warm berry puree. Very nice, but again you pay $13 for three pancakes and no sides. Some fresh berries on top would have been nice. The mushroom and goat cheese omelet with sun dried tomato pesto was very good, another $13 dish with no sides, and sides are $5. That's pricy for breakfast. Although the food is delicious, they need to either lower the prices or add some sides, like toast, hash browns or fruit. Anything really, to increase the bang for your buck. Overall, one of South Beach's better breakfast/ brunch options, especially when you are looking for a quiet retreat from the hustle and bustle.

Fabian the bartender is worth the visit. A master at hand crafted cocktails. I had his Caipirinha with fresh squeezed lime juice and it was gone in an embarrassingly short period of time. The food menu is creative with everything from bar bites to full dinners. I had the Los Tacos Loco- Florida Cod Fish, lime coleslaw, avocado on flour tortillas. Very tasty! If you're in South Miami, make it a destination.

Come on Fix. This place has the potential to be a staple Miami Beach breakfast establishment, but unless they get it "fixed," it's likely to remain a joint purely for hotel guests, boasting a killer French toast and (unfortunately) scatterbrained, unorganized South Beach-style service. Where even to begin....service our first time here was acceptable, but the return visit was a disaster (again, only mollified by the Rice Krispie French toast). First of all, we amble in, and there's not only no real hostess stand to speak of, there's no hostess. We're noticed and seated, OK, fine. But why didn't you give us a menu? It took wayyyyy too long to get a menu. Finally we flag someone down and order. Then, we are asked what room we're in, as if the idea that a couple of locals would want to come in and have breakfast didn't occur to them. Hmmm.....well, it SHOULD occur to you, that's called "business," something such establishments would be wise to encourage, don't you think? Food gets to us in a reasonable time. I think the kitchen here is on the ball, it's just the front of the house that's clueless. I'm drooling over my French toast, but then we realize we have no knife and fork. We flag someone down and clearly say that we both need a knife and fork. My dining companion gets one, but I don't. I say I need one too, and after an excruciatingly long minute, I finally get to dig in. Oh, and then, when we get the bill, I see that they served me decaf coffee when I did not ask for decaf. Still three stars, because it has so much potential. If the service doesn't improve, though, no locals will want to stop in. I'll give it one more chance - right now, Krispies or not, it's on thin ice.

Really pretty decor but I came in to a ghost town at noon. When I asked if they were open the hostess had to check. After ascertaining they were open, I tried to order lunch. Though it was noon only breakfast was available. There were maybe 6 choices, but all were bread based. I had the breakfast sandwich which was okay. It came with a lot of bland potatoes. I was alternately left alone ("hello? Hellloooooo? Can I get water?") and rushed. They added gratuity which was ridiculous based on the service I received.

This a very nice, modern and cosy place. The seating outside around the pool is great. I was thinking to celebrate a closing deal in a very upscale restaurant and what a surprise the menu was just salads and sandwiches. I was about to stand up but they were very nice so I decided to stay. My salad was not fresh , the salmon was dry and over cook. The $ 16 Cuban sandwich was nothing special . Service was not that good, I got my food but not my silverware, the foot wait time was long, my water never was refilled, my appetizer came with the main course together, and never was asked how was the food or if I want a second drink. My pisco sour was awful. On top of everything we were the only table in the restaurant . Dime algo ? Maybe a nice place for day time , but I will definitely not go any time. I would love to rate it better but definitely I can not. One recommendation : change the night time menu.
Well I have been loving this place for a while now, but now it is official. SOBE WFF just named them the "Best Bite on the Beach" for the Rice Krispie French Toast with Marscapone Zabaglione and Buffalo Trace Burbon Caramel sauce. Congratulations to you guys for winning! - SOBE Examiner

We stayed at the hotel and went to the restaurant by default after a few subpar places. To our surprise, the food was amazing. I had the jerk chicken and my girlfriend had the turkey burger. Both were amazing. Later the same day, we shared the slider burgers, which were perfectly juicy and flavorful. If you just want a drink, you MUST have the pineapple mojito. Great job from the FOH team as well.

3.5. Fix has all the potential in the world but can't seem to get the momentum together to be as incredible as it should be. First off, South Beach is in great need of a go-to brunch spot for locals. You know, something that is reliable, tasty, reasonably-priced with good service. There are less than five of these such establishments I can think of and I wind up taking most of my out-of-town guests to the same place over and over again. I thought this changed with Fix. Collins Ave? Check. Hotel? Check. New(ish -- at the time of my first visit)? Check. There were some seriously good ingredients to work with and I was excited to investigate. Again, there are more positives than negatives ($5 flat water. Really?), but Fix needs to work on creating a consistent experience for guests. Over the course of my visits, here are my impressions: 1.) Service. It's all over the map. I have dealt with absent hostesses, forgetful servers, aggro/hostile management, and one of the BEST servers I have had in South Beach (Damon P; ask for him). With so many varied experiences, it's hard to say which Fix you're going to get. I have seen everything from servers sitting down at a table to complain about guests -- all the while patrons waited for silverware/food, to management yelling at staff in front of guests to service that was a bit too forced to be sincere to Damon P making concessions for my tablemates and creating a stellar eating experience. It's confusing. 2.) Stick with the sweet stuff. The chocolate chip/banana fosters pancake was a revelation. I have a notoriously large appetite and can finish nearly any plate -- which is shocking considering my six-pack. I couldn't finish this plate. This stack of cakes, topped with whipped cream was a delectable steal at its original price of $10. The price has since gone up to $12 and now the pancakes have an added peanut butter element. I haven't tried them but my gut says the peanut butter is too much. It seems the blueberry pancakes (huge portion; packed with berries) have been replaced with whole wheat cakes topped with pecans and berry compote. Hmm. I don't know about that. The savory portion of the menu isn't quite as successful. The hash is uninspired and bland. The build-your-own omelet comes with conditions (ask beforehand) and suffers from the same over-preparation that tarnished the fresh farms eggs: they were burnt. I hate eating burnt, dry eggs and I've had them twice at Fix. 3.) Environment. Eat outside. No matter the time of year or where people try to steer you, eat outside... but make sure you eat under the covering. You want the ambiance of the fountain without getting burned by the sun above (maybe that's what happened to the eggs). I've never seen a crowd at Fix. I can't imagine why. Seriously. I can't. I'm not being snarky. Perhaps people don't know about it? Perhaps the hiccups have scared away a local population tired of the same old same in South Beach? I don't know. For a romantic dinner, solitude can be a good thing. For brunch, it's a bit disconcerting to eat with so few other diners. At least when you do so, you can do it in the sun.

Cute interior. I had the rice crispy French toast, which was really good. The caramel and sweetened condensed milk on top made it seem more like a dessert, which isn't a bad thing. Hubby had the breakfast sandwich and a side of potatoes. I had a bite of the sandwich and was impressed. It was really flavorful..the potatoes were good, but too greasy. Overall, I thought everything was great, and I'm not really a breakfast person. What really stood out was that our server Zarathus, was super nice and attentive, which is hard to find out here in SOBE, since gratuity is already included. I would definitely recommend this place for breakfast.

This was an okay breakfast place, a little pricey for breakfast though, especially with the all of the breakfast specials you can find in SoBe. Eggs and Toast was $10, but it was delicious, as was the bacon. I'm sure you've read the other reviews about the Rice Krispies french toast, etc, and if you like sweet breakfast foods, absolutely go for it. We shared a plate between our group of 8 and it was more than enough for all of us. The service was absolutely incredible though, I wish I could remember the name of our waiter. He was super courteous and he's the reason I gave this place 4 stars instead of 3.

Don't come here expecting a good brunch. The "continental breakfast" is one dried Danish. 1 strawberry. 1 croissant. And coffee. Orange juice might be included if you ask nicely. $11. Give me a break. Avoid like the plague. Oh. And speaking of plagues. My blueberry was moldy.

Made a reservation on their website, but last minute changes had our party change almost double! They accomodated this change without any issue at all and provided us with great service and great food. The rice krispies french toast is a must have and we even ended ordering another plate of it because we couldn't get enough. Would definitely go back here and recommend it.

Walked out after 50 minutes. Coffee took 10 minutes after we ordered. We still didn't have our food 40 minutes after we ordered it. Tables and the bar weren't being cleared after people left, there had to be at least 15-20 dirty glasses on the bar. Nice atmosphere though!

Went to Fix for brunch with boyfriend and great friends...thank god! That was the only good part of the experience. Friends and the free round of mimosas we received after our order of a "bowl of fruit" (you know, the fresh kind you cut and serve) took 45 minutes to arrive at our table. The bowl of fruit was just a "healthy starter" meaning we were eating the main course almost 2 hours later. The server was very apologetic and says this never happens. Did I mention there were only three other tables aside from ours being served? Anyway, aside from the slow service I have to say the ambience is ok, the french toast IS something to write about and the inside of the restaurant is very chic, if you're into that kind of stuff. Me, I prefer good food without all the fluff.

My husband and I ate brunch here using the TravelZoo coupon while we were visiting Miami and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The food was great and everybody who worked there was very attentive. At one point I wanted to find an ATM for cash, I had three different employees helping me. When I came back after visiting the ATM every single one of them stopped by to make sure that I found what I needed. Also, I have a strawberry allergy and they were more than accommodating in making changes to my meal for me. The only shortcoming is how slow they were. I don't understand it because they didn't seem terribly busy, but it seemed to take forever just to get our drinks and entrees. Interestingly enough, my berries (which I asked to have made without strawberries) came right away while my husband's "healthy start" actually came after his entree. Luckily, we were in a vacation mind-frame and it was a nice space so we didn't mind terribly.

What an unfortunate visit to Fix. The food was ok - highlights being the french toast and omelette. But the service was absolutely abysmal. And it can't just be blamed on being short-staffed, which apparently they were. (This is a recurring theme in the reviews though?). There were literally 6-7 occupied tables while we were there, which is probably equal to 10% of capacity. In other words, the place was EMPTY and not busy. Yet, these tables could not be covered by two servers. Menus? Had to get up and get them myself after 10 minutes of waiting. Silverware/napkins? Not on the table. Why don't I just grab that myself too so my food doesn't get colder while I wait in hopes that the waiter will re-appear. 30 minutes to get yogurt/granola fruit plate? Yep. 35 minutes to get a semi-warm basket of pastries? Yes. 40 minutes for one order of french toast and one omelette? You betcha. On top of it, nothing came out together.....it was one plate at a time. All of us sitting outside just kept looking around at each other, as if to say "Is this for real?" Everyone waited this long for their food, not just us. We quickly realized that just about everyone eating there was using the Travelzoo deal. In other words, on a Sunday morning - prime time for brunch - there's no one else dining at Fix other than the deal catchers (likely first timers, as we were). That speaks volumes, even more than the "quality" of the service. Servers were apologetic for the delays and slow service, and I would understand it if they were BUSY. But they were not busy AT ALL, so you cannot adequately excuse that it takes 30+ minutes to put yogurt and granola in a cup and on a plate of fruit.

Walked into this place and was super excited just looking at how cute it was...thoroughly disappointed. The food was mediocre, after we waited 20 mins for an omelette and a fruit plate. But what topped it all was the poor service--hostess sucked/ staff the moment we walked in. And then just continued to suck, in personality in addition to their jobs. Come to find out at the end gratuity is included...makes sense why she didn't care from the beginning.

Nice place, but an incredibly bad place for brunch. Overpriced! We were a group of 6, we all ordered at the same time and half of us have long finished our food by the time the last ones got theirs. And it was a polite group, we tried to wait, but without exaggerating, there was over an hour between the time the first of us and the last of us got their food. And most of the orders were screwed up! They mixed up the ingredients in the omelettes so nobody got what they ordered. Three of us ordered eggs benedict-s, they were made 3 different ways. One had hollandaise sauce, the other didn't, one had canadian bacon, the other had regular bacon, the third had no bacon. Two had hash-browns on the plate, the third had french fries. Three of us ordered "fruit plates" all three were different. It took so long to get a drink, that we were all ordering two or three drinks at a time. By the way, the drinks were pretty bad too... And they had only two tables going, the rest of the restaurant was empty! The level of incompetence was amazing even for Miami. We couldn't help but laugh...

Went with the Master Splinter of Yelp, Mr. Johnny T for a weekly chit chat on all things Yelp. We were in the area and decided to stop in. You must enter through the hotels lobby to get to the restaurant. It was about 11AM and there wasn't anyone else there....I thought that was a bad sign from the get go. We decided to roll the dice and sat down. We got a table outside to enjoy this wonderful Miami weather. The seating outside has about 6 fans, so it keeps you cool. It is located right next to the pool. I had the blueberry whole wheat pancakes. WOW. The portions are huge and for South Beach the prices are reasonable. The pancakes were a little burnt on one side, but it was fine. The blueberry and banana foster on top totally drowned out the flavor of a little over cooked pancake. The had chocolate chip banana pancakes - which I look forward to trying next time. The service was a little weird, and felt almost forced. They were almost TOO attentive, which for me personally - is a bit bothersome. If you are laying it on that thick, it feels.... unnatural. Overall the food is great for breakfast...when I am back on that side of the bridge I look forward to trying the lunch menu.

Words cannot express how quickly I have fallen in love with FIX ... Let me begin with the fact that the place was relatively empty when we arrived. Luckily, I read "Blue"'s review and knew not to be hesitant of this. We sat in the back near the patio area. Very cozy despite the fact we were on the Beach. We were in for a real treat. There was a small group sitting across from us doing an interview, we were delighted with breakfast and a show! They have everything and anything you could possibly want for breakfast ... and lunch too. The Rice Krispies French Toast was just a little slice of heaven on my plate. Unfortunately, that was all I was able to eat this visit. But I will definitely be returning AND bringing along the Fam!

Stayed at the hotel next door, but regretted it the minute we walked here: fantastic outdoor patio seating by the pool. Very casual, modern food. Between the four of us, we ordered the sliders (with bacon and great sauce!), the Ahi Tuna (can't go wrong with that), and the tuna tacos, which probably were the best out of already great selections. Add to that some mojitos wonderfully done and freshly made lemonade. Staff member / bartender super friendly and funny. Nice place! Waterfall and outdoor area beautiful and calming. Service impeccable. Sorry we did not stay at this hotel. Made our visit here complete.

I was the only customer for a 3:00 pm lunch, so I sat at the bar and enjoyed the company of the bartender/waitress Arlene. She brought my Greek Salad and I had overlooked the absence of lettuce in the description. It had everything you'd expect except the lettuce. She offered me a free side of beautiful field greens and I was "FIXed!" Upscale casual. Cool and comfy with a nice Collins St. view!
(4)Stefano Z.
Almost reasonable for breakfast (but nothing exciting, and the continental option was a sorry thing with 1 Danish, 1 croissant, no jam, no fruit). Very very limited options for dinner. Service was friendly but sloooooooow.
(2)Nnenna E.
The service was impeccable! The dining area is I. The back of the hotel and not off Collins which took us by surpriSe very tiny pool area but they made up for it with the food. Service- average for Miami. Lag time was bordering appropriate but so friendly ! Definite place to stop for a quiet meal that's still great! Highly suggest it. They have a brunch menu that ends at 11 and then switches to lunch

Places over rated ...service is poor.. Food is mediocre...rice crispy French toast is decent ... But will not recommend to friends After a short while got really bad stomach cramps stay away...
(1)Juan S.
Improvements have been made....especially with the service. Came here again recently and was pleasantly surprised by the service improvements. The food is still good too. Lot of creative and healthy options here. I saw someone ordering the red velvet pancakes and I will definitely be back to try them.

My boyfriend and I have been here for brunch a few times. It is always quiet and most of the tables are empty. We always sit in the back by the pool which is generally relaxing. We love the brunch menu - the goat cheese omelet is great. The fruit bowl was fresh. Bloody marys are good, bellini's are decent. They are known for their rice krispie French toast - which was very tasty but too much for one person as a meal. I want to go back to try the red velvet pancakes and chocolate-peanut butter pancakes. Would recommend going with a group so you can try a bunch of different things. Lunch sandwiches always look yummy too

The outdoor patio is a relaxing place to have brunch, its quite and the sound of the fountain is very peaceful, especially if you have been up partying all night. The Bloody fix is amazing. I had two. I had the kurobota pork belly & quail egg benedict which was a great combination of flavors and textures. Yum! The only thing I would suggest is getting a side, as the items do not come with one and you will probably want more to eat if you don't. The potato hash was smaller than expected, so I would suggest getting that along with your order. The rice krispie french toast was AMAZING and definitely worth the trip just to have that. The coffee is atrocious. My friend ordered an americano and our server brought out a carafe of regular coffee and poured it into a mug... it was worse than diner coffee. watery and bitter. I know my coffee and this was ALL wrong. Our waiter was Zor. I think he had been up all night, though I found him funny and helpful regardless of his puffy red eyes. Get some eye drops dude. lol Oh! And they said on the phone that they would let us park with the valet, but when we got there they said no valet unless we were staying at the hotel. Boo! Considering it took my friend about 20 minutes to find a spot. Just tell us "no" then we know what to expect. That was pretty lame!

Just had a very nice brunch at Fix on Saturday. After being caught in bad traffic on the Causeway causing my husband and I to be a half hour late for our reservation, I was very relieved that they had no issue seating us. Our waiter was very nice, but don't go there if you're in a rush. We were fine with the leisurely pace and it was really lovely sitting out by the pool. We came with the Travelzoo deal and it was definitely worth it. I started with a bellini and my husband had a mimosa. Then we waited a very long time for my seasonal berries starter and his seasonal fruit plate. Both were filled with fresh fruit and it was a nice, light way to start the meal. As much as I wanted to dive into the Rice Krispie-crusted French Toast or the Red Velvet Pancakes, I was just not in the mood. However, I was very happy with my Mushroom Omelet which was the perfect size for me (i.e. not diner-enormous) and had some unique flavors going on. My husband had the Bacon Cheeseburger Kobe beef sliders, which he enjoyed. The portion of three sliders was substantial and it came with fries. I would definitely eat here again if I were a guest in the hotel or happened to be in the neighborhood, but it was quite a trek from Broward.
(4)Cathy M.
The rice-crispies-covered french toast really is all that. I enjoyed sitting outside in the back patio and soaked my feet in the pool with my bellini while my order came out to the table... the servers were very friendly and attentive. our lattes were yummy, and the gazpacho had a nice smokey/roasted flavor to it. i'll be back when i need a brunch again :)
(3)J M.
We were prepared to receive a not so friendly service based on some of the reviews mentioned and because we bought a Travelzoo deal for the Brunch. We were wrong! We were greeted as soon as we walked into the Blue Moon Hotel. We sat outside by the pool - very nice & quiet. Service - Excellent! The waiter Zor(sp?) was very attentive and accommodating. He provided excellent service throughout. Then the manager & the chef also came out to greet us. Food - Excellent! We had the fresh fruit plate, fresh berries, Rock Shrimp & Stone Crab Omelet (a must! It had lumps of the crab meat, large shrimps, & the omelet was not dry at all!) and the wild mushroom, shrimp & bacon omelet, a glass of fresh squeezed OJ(w/ refills), & a Bellini. Price - Very Good! The prices on the menu were reasonable; typical SoBe prices. We did use the Travelzoo Brunch deal ($29) which came w/ 2 Healthier Start, 2 Entrees, and 2 Drinks. However, we would definitely go back for the food even w/o a deal. They definitely did not discriminate us for using the Travelzoo deal like some places do. They provided top notch service along with their top notch quality of food.

I was so excited to find a new brunch spot nearby. It was a Sunday and everyone was out back... The server was prob hungover bcuz he was taking forever and could not manage the few tables he had. He went inside a few times without bringing back a menu. ??? I continued to wait until I finally got up and practically yelled at him for not bring me one or even noticing I had been waiting for him. He apologized profusely and in his defense said he was the only waiter blah blah blah. (There were only 3 other tables besides me.) The menu on yelp is not an updated one and they didn't have what I wanted. I ordered the egg sandwich. My order took FOREVER! I have no idea why since it was slow. He even brought me an extra mimosa because it was taking soo long. With out making this review even longer: Service sucked, food mediocre. Potatoes bland. Wasn't charged for my drinks. But nice chill spot...
(2)Yulia K.
Very good for breakfast. Relaxing atmosphere good options for breakfast. We had Benedict it was good but simple eating a lot in SoBe you get used to creatively loaded dishes also tried rice crispy french toast. That wasn't that great. Was lucking crunchiness from rice crispy and was a little bit chewy. I also ordered a Bloody Mary and this was super good so overall experience was good. I might come back for some pancakes
(4)Deidra B.
Outstanding service had a frittata with breakfast potato and fruit bowl. Oj and tomato juice. Would oh here again. Nice place very warm great service.
(4)Foodie L.
Went for breakfast and enjoyed it! My friends and I ordered blueberry pancakes, red velvet pancakes, and the rice crispy french toast. Everything was delicious. The server (forgot his name) was amazing and so nice!! I would recommend ordering a few dishes and sharing because the portions are so filling because of all the bread haha. Great food and nice, funky atmosphere! Loved it!
(4)Tristan J.
OH NO FIX! We came for breakfast and your food was fantastic. We were SOOO happy with it that we decided to come back for dinner the next evening as we were only staying up the road. BUT the dinner was nowhere near as good. My steak was overcooked for medium rare and drowning in too sauce with unimaginative sides. My partners fish was equally just so so. For the price we were expecting better, I have to say the sight of an empty restaurant at 8pm should have warned us off but we believed in you. So yeah, great Rice Krispie french toast and that pork thing was amazing. If it had just been breakfast I'd be looking at 4, possibly 5 stars. It's such a shame dinner didn't live up to the price tag.
(3)Josiah G.
Hands down, one of the best breakfast sandwiches I've ever had. The service was above and beyond and the mostly champagne mimosas hit the spot. Can't wait to come back and try other dishes.
(4)Sherri K.
This is the restaurant/ bar in the hotel where we stayed during our weekend in south beach. There were so many things right with this place! Breakfast - as a guest you could order a continental or choose from the menu. I had a fantastic egg white omelet with wild mushrooms and goat cheese one morning which was well worth the price. We tried the eggs benedict with shredded beef. One morning I simply had a side of bacon and hash browns. Everything was delicious. You can sit on the front patio area, in the main restaurant, or on the back patio which overlooks the tiny pool. This is good at night when the water feature is lit up, but kind of awkward during the day when people are sunbathing... and you are eating and gawking. Although, it would have been nice to have waiter service at the pool while we were laying out, but I digress. The bar area is separate but overlooks Collins Ave which is great people watching. They have a fancy power juicer which they use for all the cocktails which have juice (orange, lemon, lime). Mmm fresh juice in a cocktail, what a novel idea. The bartenders are all RAD. Great mixologists; very friendly, funny and will suggest fun, delicious drinks any time of the day. They make great shots and have experimented and tasted everything they offer. These guys helped make our stay fun!
(4)Jim V.
Absolutely horrible service! Came in with a group of 10 for brunch and were the only people in the restaurant. It took over 30 minutes before they even got us drinks. The food was all mediocre at best and not worth the 2hours + that we sat there.
(2)Jessica B.
Came here with some friends one from out of town for brunch, the place is really cute and nice but the food is nothing to brag about. The service was great and our waitress was friendly on the other hand the chef was kind of pushy and annoying. We had ordered the chicken sandwich, the omelet and eggs benedict (did not like) and we had ordered the rice krispie french toast and he made us immediately try them when we wanted them for dessert and the truth is they kinda sucked and had no flavor..sorry but wont be going back here.
(2)Nicole H.
Ended up here for brunch solely due to finding a great deal on Travelzoo - $29 for two "healthy" items, 2 entrees and 2 drinks. My friend I chose to get bloody marys (normally $10), which were very good. We also picked the red velvet pancakes ($13) and the eggs benedict ($13) for our entrees, as well as the berries ($10) and pastry basket ($10) for our "healthy" options. One thing - I don't know if it was a mistake or not, but the bread basket, per the menu, came with juices and coffees for us both. So in the end, for $29 (plus $12 for tax+tip that we added) we got a TON of food. The highlight for me were the pastries, which were all delicious, as well as the aforementioned bloody marys. The pancakes were good, but VERY sweet. And the benedict was fine - nothing to write home about, but I've certainly had worse. The service was good, and the location was very convenient for where we were staying. Would I have wanted to pay full price for the meal? Definitely not. But for about $20 a person all in, including a drink, it was certainly worth it. I wish we had been offered to sit outside, since the indoor eating area is just mediocre. And the place was absolutely empty on a beautiful day, which doesn't seem like a great sign. I probably won't be running back on my next visit to Miami, but at half off it'd be hard to turn down.

Fix is the newly renovated restaurant inside the Blue Moon Hotel. The wooden floors and bistro tables give it a modern French country vibe. The music is relaxing and played at a low enough volume to have a conversation. Be sure you get a table close to the pool with the waterfall. Breakfast is served daily from 8:00 to noon and being that breakfast is my favorite meal of the day they received an extra star based on my love affair with carbs. We started with hot coffee (big cups but could be a bit stronger) and oatmeal. They use steel cut oats, the good stuff. Oatmeal was a nice big bowl and cooked to creamy perfection. The downside is the price. If I recall correctly, close to $10 for just a bowl of oats. Whole wheat pancakes are hard to find so I couldn't pass them up. They were moist and served with warm caramelized bananas on top. The inside of the pancake actually had a warm berry puree. Very nice, but again you pay $13 for three pancakes and no sides. Some fresh berries on top would have been nice. The mushroom and goat cheese omelet with sun dried tomato pesto was very good, another $13 dish with no sides, and sides are $5. That's pricy for breakfast. Although the food is delicious, they need to either lower the prices or add some sides, like toast, hash browns or fruit. Anything really, to increase the bang for your buck. Overall, one of South Beach's better breakfast/ brunch options, especially when you are looking for a quiet retreat from the hustle and bustle.

Fabian the bartender is worth the visit. A master at hand crafted cocktails. I had his Caipirinha with fresh squeezed lime juice and it was gone in an embarrassingly short period of time. The food menu is creative with everything from bar bites to full dinners. I had the Los Tacos Loco- Florida Cod Fish, lime coleslaw, avocado on flour tortillas. Very tasty! If you're in South Miami, make it a destination.

Come on Fix. This place has the potential to be a staple Miami Beach breakfast establishment, but unless they get it "fixed," it's likely to remain a joint purely for hotel guests, boasting a killer French toast and (unfortunately) scatterbrained, unorganized South Beach-style service. Where even to begin....service our first time here was acceptable, but the return visit was a disaster (again, only mollified by the Rice Krispie French toast). First of all, we amble in, and there's not only no real hostess stand to speak of, there's no hostess. We're noticed and seated, OK, fine. But why didn't you give us a menu? It took wayyyyy too long to get a menu. Finally we flag someone down and order. Then, we are asked what room we're in, as if the idea that a couple of locals would want to come in and have breakfast didn't occur to them. Hmmm.....well, it SHOULD occur to you, that's called "business," something such establishments would be wise to encourage, don't you think? Food gets to us in a reasonable time. I think the kitchen here is on the ball, it's just the front of the house that's clueless. I'm drooling over my French toast, but then we realize we have no knife and fork. We flag someone down and clearly say that we both need a knife and fork. My dining companion gets one, but I don't. I say I need one too, and after an excruciatingly long minute, I finally get to dig in. Oh, and then, when we get the bill, I see that they served me decaf coffee when I did not ask for decaf. Still three stars, because it has so much potential. If the service doesn't improve, though, no locals will want to stop in. I'll give it one more chance - right now, Krispies or not, it's on thin ice.

Really pretty decor but I came in to a ghost town at noon. When I asked if they were open the hostess had to check. After ascertaining they were open, I tried to order lunch. Though it was noon only breakfast was available. There were maybe 6 choices, but all were bread based. I had the breakfast sandwich which was okay. It came with a lot of bland potatoes. I was alternately left alone ("hello? Hellloooooo? Can I get water?") and rushed. They added gratuity which was ridiculous based on the service I received.

This a very nice, modern and cosy place. The seating outside around the pool is great. I was thinking to celebrate a closing deal in a very upscale restaurant and what a surprise the menu was just salads and sandwiches. I was about to stand up but they were very nice so I decided to stay. My salad was not fresh , the salmon was dry and over cook. The $ 16 Cuban sandwich was nothing special . Service was not that good, I got my food but not my silverware, the foot wait time was long, my water never was refilled, my appetizer came with the main course together, and never was asked how was the food or if I want a second drink. My pisco sour was awful. On top of everything we were the only table in the restaurant . Dime algo ? Maybe a nice place for day time , but I will definitely not go any time. I would love to rate it better but definitely I can not. One recommendation : change the night time menu.

FIX is a brunch winner! Located in the Blue Moon Hotel in SoBe, FIX is a light and airy restaurant with a casual & laid back feel. We were warmly greeted by the hostess & our server was attentive & friendly which is always a plus. I came specifically to try the award winning Rice Krispy French Toast on the menu. I am normally not a French toast lover because of the chewy texture and monotony of flavor, but I was curious from all the positive buzz. Well, FIX's Rice Krispy version of French toast is a fun nod to childhood without losing itself to novelty & the only French toast I will ever order from now on. Slices of French toast are panko'd, if you will, with rice krispys then a condensed milk sauce is drizzled atop with some fresh strawberries on the side. Delish!! My DH loved it and he loves traditional French toast. DH had the Eggs Benedict & commented his hollandaise sauce was perfectly done. I also appreciated that we were given water bottles when we asked for water without being charged. If I could make any recommendations, it would only be on the coffee. I ordered a café con leche and after a wait was given a mug full of leche with only a splash of American coffee. Not ok given this is Miami. But, I am willing to overlook that & will visit again. I recommend bringing out of towners here for brunch.

Well I have been loving this place for a while now, but now it is official. SOBE WFF just named them the "Best Bite on the Beach" for the Rice Krispie French Toast with Marscapone Zabaglione and Buffalo Trace Burbon Caramel sauce. Congratulations to you guys for winning! - SOBE Examiner
(5)Kevin M.
We stayed at the hotel and went to the restaurant by default after a few subpar places. To our surprise, the food was amazing. I had the jerk chicken and my girlfriend had the turkey burger. Both were amazing. Later the same day, we shared the slider burgers, which were perfectly juicy and flavorful. If you just want a drink, you MUST have the pineapple mojito. Great job from the FOH team as well.

3.5. Fix has all the potential in the world but can't seem to get the momentum together to be as incredible as it should be. First off, South Beach is in great need of a go-to brunch spot for locals. You know, something that is reliable, tasty, reasonably-priced with good service. There are less than five of these such establishments I can think of and I wind up taking most of my out-of-town guests to the same place over and over again. I thought this changed with Fix. Collins Ave? Check. Hotel? Check. New(ish -- at the time of my first visit)? Check. There were some seriously good ingredients to work with and I was excited to investigate. Again, there are more positives than negatives ($5 flat water. Really?), but Fix needs to work on creating a consistent experience for guests. Over the course of my visits, here are my impressions: 1.) Service. It's all over the map. I have dealt with absent hostesses, forgetful servers, aggro/hostile management, and one of the BEST servers I have had in South Beach (Damon P; ask for him). With so many varied experiences, it's hard to say which Fix you're going to get. I have seen everything from servers sitting down at a table to complain about guests -- all the while patrons waited for silverware/food, to management yelling at staff in front of guests to service that was a bit too forced to be sincere to Damon P making concessions for my tablemates and creating a stellar eating experience. It's confusing. 2.) Stick with the sweet stuff. The chocolate chip/banana fosters pancake was a revelation. I have a notoriously large appetite and can finish nearly any plate -- which is shocking considering my six-pack. I couldn't finish this plate. This stack of cakes, topped with whipped cream was a delectable steal at its original price of $10. The price has since gone up to $12 and now the pancakes have an added peanut butter element. I haven't tried them but my gut says the peanut butter is too much. It seems the blueberry pancakes (huge portion; packed with berries) have been replaced with whole wheat cakes topped with pecans and berry compote. Hmm. I don't know about that. The savory portion of the menu isn't quite as successful. The hash is uninspired and bland. The build-your-own omelet comes with conditions (ask beforehand) and suffers from the same over-preparation that tarnished the fresh farms eggs: they were burnt. I hate eating burnt, dry eggs and I've had them twice at Fix. 3.) Environment. Eat outside. No matter the time of year or where people try to steer you, eat outside... but make sure you eat under the covering. You want the ambiance of the fountain without getting burned by the sun above (maybe that's what happened to the eggs). I've never seen a crowd at Fix. I can't imagine why. Seriously. I can't. I'm not being snarky. Perhaps people don't know about it? Perhaps the hiccups have scared away a local population tired of the same old same in South Beach? I don't know. For a romantic dinner, solitude can be a good thing. For brunch, it's a bit disconcerting to eat with so few other diners. At least when you do so, you can do it in the sun.

Cute interior. I had the rice crispy French toast, which was really good. The caramel and sweetened condensed milk on top made it seem more like a dessert, which isn't a bad thing. Hubby had the breakfast sandwich and a side of potatoes. I had a bite of the sandwich and was impressed. It was really flavorful..the potatoes were good, but too greasy. Overall, I thought everything was great, and I'm not really a breakfast person. What really stood out was that our server Zarathus, was super nice and attentive, which is hard to find out here in SOBE, since gratuity is already included. I would definitely recommend this place for breakfast.
(4)Christina H.
Too expensive and food is subpar. We went for breakfast and it our poor waiter looked like he had been out all night and then was having a very rough morning. Kitchen service is slow, but the rice Krispy french toast is worth it!
(3)S K.
Quiet brunch by the pool
(5)Nick A.
This was an okay breakfast place, a little pricey for breakfast though, especially with the all of the breakfast specials you can find in SoBe. Eggs and Toast was $10, but it was delicious, as was the bacon. I'm sure you've read the other reviews about the Rice Krispies french toast, etc, and if you like sweet breakfast foods, absolutely go for it. We shared a plate between our group of 8 and it was more than enough for all of us. The service was absolutely incredible though, I wish I could remember the name of our waiter. He was super courteous and he's the reason I gave this place 4 stars instead of 3.
(4)Novi M.
This place was a bit empty for being a Sunday...but the food is amazing the service was great. We had a very friendly waiter and he was very knowledgeable on the menu. We had the rice crispy french toast and crab omelette...Amazing!
(5)Hope L.
Yummy and original brunch menu. Served even though it was after breakfast hours.
(4)John G.
The absolute worst service ever. The waited finally came by 55 minutes after we sat down and took my menu away; to which I responded by asking him if I could order first. He apologized for not being prepared. We were a wedding party of 10. The reservation was booked weeks in advance.
(1)Jon B.
Don't come here expecting a good brunch. The "continental breakfast" is one dried Danish. 1 strawberry. 1 croissant. And coffee. Orange juice might be included if you ask nicely. $11. Give me a break. Avoid like the plague. Oh. And speaking of plagues. My blueberry was moldy.
(1)Thomas H.
Very chill un-SoBe bar. Perfect for quiet cocktail before calling it a night.
(5)Alisha F.
Made a reservation on their website, but last minute changes had our party change almost double! They accomodated this change without any issue at all and provided us with great service and great food. The rice krispies french toast is a must have and we even ended ordering another plate of it because we couldn't get enough. Would definitely go back here and recommend it.
(5)Christopher R.
Walked out after 50 minutes. Coffee took 10 minutes after we ordered. We still didn't have our food 40 minutes after we ordered it. Tables and the bar weren't being cleared after people left, there had to be at least 15-20 dirty glasses on the bar. Nice atmosphere though!
(1)Yesy C.
Went to Fix for brunch with boyfriend and great friends...thank god! That was the only good part of the experience. Friends and the free round of mimosas we received after our order of a "bowl of fruit" (you know, the fresh kind you cut and serve) took 45 minutes to arrive at our table. The bowl of fruit was just a "healthy starter" meaning we were eating the main course almost 2 hours later. The server was very apologetic and says this never happens. Did I mention there were only three other tables aside from ours being served? Anyway, aside from the slow service I have to say the ambience is ok, the french toast IS something to write about and the inside of the restaurant is very chic, if you're into that kind of stuff. Me, I prefer good food without all the fluff.
(1)Shannon W.
My husband and I ate brunch here using the TravelZoo coupon while we were visiting Miami and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The food was great and everybody who worked there was very attentive. At one point I wanted to find an ATM for cash, I had three different employees helping me. When I came back after visiting the ATM every single one of them stopped by to make sure that I found what I needed. Also, I have a strawberry allergy and they were more than accommodating in making changes to my meal for me. The only shortcoming is how slow they were. I don't understand it because they didn't seem terribly busy, but it seemed to take forever just to get our drinks and entrees. Interestingly enough, my berries (which I asked to have made without strawberries) came right away while my husband's "healthy start" actually came after his entree. Luckily, we were in a vacation mind-frame and it was a nice space so we didn't mind terribly.

What an unfortunate visit to Fix. The food was ok - highlights being the french toast and omelette. But the service was absolutely abysmal. And it can't just be blamed on being short-staffed, which apparently they were. (This is a recurring theme in the reviews though?). There were literally 6-7 occupied tables while we were there, which is probably equal to 10% of capacity. In other words, the place was EMPTY and not busy. Yet, these tables could not be covered by two servers. Menus? Had to get up and get them myself after 10 minutes of waiting. Silverware/napkins? Not on the table. Why don't I just grab that myself too so my food doesn't get colder while I wait in hopes that the waiter will re-appear. 30 minutes to get yogurt/granola fruit plate? Yep. 35 minutes to get a semi-warm basket of pastries? Yes. 40 minutes for one order of french toast and one omelette? You betcha. On top of it, nothing came out together.....it was one plate at a time. All of us sitting outside just kept looking around at each other, as if to say "Is this for real?" Everyone waited this long for their food, not just us. We quickly realized that just about everyone eating there was using the Travelzoo deal. In other words, on a Sunday morning - prime time for brunch - there's no one else dining at Fix other than the deal catchers (likely first timers, as we were). That speaks volumes, even more than the "quality" of the service. Servers were apologetic for the delays and slow service, and I would understand it if they were BUSY. But they were not busy AT ALL, so you cannot adequately excuse that it takes 30+ minutes to put yogurt and granola in a cup and on a plate of fruit.

Walked into this place and was super excited just looking at how cute it was...thoroughly disappointed. The food was mediocre, after we waited 20 mins for an omelette and a fruit plate. But what topped it all was the poor service--hostess sucked/ staff the moment we walked in. And then just continued to suck, in personality in addition to their jobs. Come to find out at the end gratuity is included...makes sense why she didn't care from the beginning.

Nice place, but an incredibly bad place for brunch. Overpriced! We were a group of 6, we all ordered at the same time and half of us have long finished our food by the time the last ones got theirs. And it was a polite group, we tried to wait, but without exaggerating, there was over an hour between the time the first of us and the last of us got their food. And most of the orders were screwed up! They mixed up the ingredients in the omelettes so nobody got what they ordered. Three of us ordered eggs benedict-s, they were made 3 different ways. One had hollandaise sauce, the other didn't, one had canadian bacon, the other had regular bacon, the third had no bacon. Two had hash-browns on the plate, the third had french fries. Three of us ordered "fruit plates" all three were different. It took so long to get a drink, that we were all ordering two or three drinks at a time. By the way, the drinks were pretty bad too... And they had only two tables going, the rest of the restaurant was empty! The level of incompetence was amazing even for Miami. We couldn't help but laugh...
