2 week agoWe had such an amazing dinner at Abba Le. Our server Alice made the entire experience exceptional. She was one of the best servers both of us have ever had (and we’ve lived in NYC dining all the time for 5 years!). Present at the right moments, friendly, relatable, helpful, everything. She was so kind and a total pleasure to interact with. We did the prix fixe menu and she took care of us every step of the way—checking in just the right amount, making thoughtful recommendations, and genuinely making sure we were enjoying ourselves. The food was outstanding—every course was beautifully presented and full of flavor. The steak, in particular, was a standout. Cooked perfectly. The decor and overall atmosphere were also incredible—warm, stylish, and perfectly suited to the experience. Highly recommend this spot for anyone visiting Miami or looking for an enjoyable night out. Can’t wait to come back!

4 week agoI tried the Miami Spice Menu for $44.60 (tax and 18% service included), and it was totally worth it! Got an appetizer, entrée and dessert (no drinks), portions were just right, flavors were amazing, and the presentation was on point. Highly recommend!

4 week agoUpon entering we waiting a couple minutes for the hostess & a few minutes for our server to initially greet us. This had me worried because I dont like bad service … But we our minds were changed because our server was really great. He had a great personality & continued to wipe our table after every course. My husband & I tried the Miami spice menu so we can try several items. We also tried the gin mint cucumber drink- so so good & refreshing! Food- I was initially skeptical about mushrooms on hummus, but WOW did they change my mind, it tasted amazing! & Im converted to it The moroccan cigar also tasted good. The chicken skewer & couscous was flavorful. The lamb kafta was also a good choice & we loved the babghounj it came with. But by far the best part of the meal for me was dessert! The hints of rose water & pistachio…. Match made in heaven ↔ Definitely will return

1 month agoAbsolutely delicious! The photos don’t do the portion sizes justice—most dishes are large enough to share, which made it fun to sample what everyone at our table ordered. There were several vegetarian and vegan options, even for dessert—a great surprise. The Garlic Frena is a must if you love fresh bread. I had the roasted beets and fire-roasted carrots—both were fantastic, but the beets were so good I took the leftovers home for a midnight snack. They also offer fresh-squeezed juices and a wide range of dishes, from ribeye steak to vibrant vegan salads. Everything was beautifully presented and clearly made with care. Victoria was attentive, and the food came out faster than expected, even though everything is made fresh. Actually, every staff member we interacted with was warm and helpful. My only regret was not knowing how generous the portions would be—we over-ordered and couldn’t finish it all. Highly recommend, especially for foodies who appreciate fresh, high-quality ingredients!

2 month agoI recently had the pleasure of dining at Abbale Modern Mediterranean in Aventura, and it was truly an exceptional experience from start to finish. The restaurant offers a refreshing take on Mediterranean cuisine, blending traditional flavors with a modern twist that feels both authentic and innovative. The food was outstanding. Every dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The hummus was creamy and rich, paired perfectly with warm, freshly baked pita. The seafood dishes were cooked to perfection, with a subtle smokiness from the wood-fired oven that elevated the taste. Fresh salads and vibrant sides added balance and variety, making the meal feel wholesome yet indulgent. Beyond the food, the atmosphere was chic and inviting. The design strikes a perfect balance between casual comfort and elegant sophistication, making it ideal for both a relaxed lunch and a special evening out. The staff was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable, ensuring that every detail of the dining experience was seamless. What impressed me most was the consistency—every plate felt carefully crafted, and the flavors were memorable without being overwhelming. It’s the kind of place where you want to linger, share dishes with friends, and enjoy the ambiance as much as the food. Overall, Abbale Modern Mediterranean is a gem in Aventura. Whether you’re looking for a romantic dinner, a family gathering, or simply a place to enjoy excellent Mediterranean cuisine, this restaurant delivers on all fronts. I highly recommend it and look forward to returning soon.

2 month agoOur waitress, Victoria, was outstanding. She was confident in the menu, navigated it skillfully with my dietary restrictions , and made excellent recommendations. Everything we ate was delicious! We ordered the Beet and Avocado salad, the hummus, the lamb kefta, and the salmon were all outstanding. And the star of the show was the unexpectedly delicious vegan tahini ice cream. I couldn’t have asked for a better way to celebrate my birthday! Thank you for making my special day extra special!
