  20. Great Place for Steaks.
    Great food although it's off the beaten path of south Beach.. Located on 41st street. The steaks he had were great.. The crowd was mostly older stuff rich guys and young model girls posing trying to catch one of the old rich guys.

  22. One of a Kind Experience
    We frequented there during Miami Spice Restaurant Month. It was a great ambience and I felt like we served very well, the servers were very attentive. The "spice" menu was a good variety and I thought that the food was excellent and the variety of breads that came in the basket were tasty. The only thing that I didn't like was that we were charged for the birthday sparkler b/c it was two of t...

  23. Miami Spice customers treated like second class citizens
    We booked dinner for the Miami Spice menu, not expecting it to be as lavish as the regular high-priced menu. Boy were we right. The portions were tiny- my caesar salad was drenched in dressing and cheap parmesan cheese- I have had better at Macaroni Grill. The tenderloin was tasty, but the waitstaff delivered the wrong temperature steak to myself and my 3 dinner companions. The presentation wa...

  26. Great Lounge
    I went to the Forge because my friend was throwing a party there. I had so much fun and the DJ was great. Nice decor and atmosphere. The drinks were pretty good also. I didnt have any food while I was there so I can't comment on that. Overall it was a great place

  28. Beautiful Place but?
    Since moving to Miami I had always heard about the Forge. I finally went last month and was not blown away. The restaurant itself is visually appealing. The menus were large (so large they assist you in opening them as they have been known to break glasses on the tables!) The steaks were nice. What you would expect?but it felt like it was past its prime. The service was sub-par. A nice experience...

  29. Charming European ambiance, bring a flashlight (the servers do), great food, great service
    If you?ve never been to a high end New York steak house, The Forge?s heavily seared dry aged beef, delicious homemade sauces (not even needed the beef is so good), and delectable sides deliver that experience to south Florida. I had the filet on the bone ($55). When I return, I will have the filet mignon off the bone ($30) as one of my dining companions chose, as the extra $25 didn?t deliver an...

  30. Lost in Miami
    Once upon a time The Forge was great, unfortunately not anymore, from bad service to mediocre food, nothing works the way a prestigious restaurant should. Horrible from the prices to the huge portions of non-quality food, to the lack of attention. Not recommended.

  31. I won't be back
    They messed up our check several times and pretty much forgot about the table throughout the entire meal. Even when the birthday cake came out, the waiter couldn't find anyone to sing with him to it became a one man serenade. There were additions to our check that we didn't order and what we did order came out different than the description. The food was nothing to write home about. I don't r...

  32. Once our favorite..no longer!!!
    The service was terrible, didn"t get bread until dinner arrived. The maitre d' was constantly yelling at the waiters in both English and Spanish to provide service. Waited, waited and waited for everything. And none of the 4 of us enjoyed the food.

  33. Doesn't get any WORSE than The Forge.
    Our experience at this allegedly amazing restaurant was as bad as it gets. The staff at this restaurant is incompetent and useless. It took them close to an hour to bring water, even more time to bring beverages, and then, when we ordered a bottle of champagne, we were asked six times by three different people which brand it was, even though we gave them the name and the number on the wine list. ...

  34. Hated it !!!!
    Had reservations but when we got to the door they denied our entrance b/c they said we didn't have reservations. My bestfriend who wanted to eat there so badly insisted and spoke to the manager. Finaly after seeing her beg they let us in. After all that irritation and frustration the food just didn't taste good. People and the staff seem snoby instead of welcoming and friendly. Worst time eve...

  35. Just Average
    We had reservations and arrived on time. The maitre'd requested we wait at the bar, while our table was prepared. I think he forgot about us until 30 minutes later we inquired about our table, and there were plenty of tables available. The atmosphere is nice, the DJ is good, but the steaks were just average. Brazilian steakhouses in New York seem much better. Too much hype for nothing.

  36. Poser's Mecca
    Definitely NOT the best steak in America (any self respecting American even Frenchman will agree, just go to a Texas steakhouse in Austin or an Argentine steak house in Miami and you will agree). The service is just horrible and the type of people that frequent the place are hardly worth the time. Its a posers Mecca. The music is great; you just have to put up with the obnoxious staff and clien...

    The hype is what brought me to The Forge. The service is excellent but the food turned out to be less than expected.

  38. Excellent
    We absolutley loved it! We went with about 10 friends and had a great time. The food was divine and the service was incredible. The wine list was superb and so was the service. The sous chef even surprised us by sending out chocolate souffles at no charge. That made our evening! I would definetely go again!

  39. Once upon a time...The Forge was great
    The Forge restaurant was a wonderful classy restaurant while under the management and close eye of Mr. Al Marnick. After the son took over this place has gone down faster than the Titanic. Tasteless dancers on Wednesday nights, and the so called "events" are a joke. Same people, all the time. On top of it Chef Cal left and the new chef's creations are bortherline gross. The silverwear doesn't eve...

  40. pooooor ambiance
    You walk in and you feel you are surrounded by sharks on a feeding frenzy. Gold diggers with fake blond hair and implants, and aging nouveau rich men with carpet-looking hairpieces. So fake!!! It's like an xfile episode of what south beach would look like if people stopped having children and all that was left were those ex crobar and space lovers, now in their late fifties, clinging desperately...

  41. good for parents
    This an old fashioned restaurant. The food and service were excellent, but it's not the hippest joint in town. My parents LOVED it. So I say, if you are taking a group out (or visiting your grandparents), it would be a good choice. There is something for everyone.

  42. Extravagant yet Civilized
    The place is nice. Massive chandeliers hang in over you, attentive non-pretentious waiters take your order, and many single women stare wondering if that's your Porsche parked outside. The food was good, but easily forgettable. A door in the restaurant gives you access to a club next door where many 30-something Gold-diggers await.

    I love the decor; it's very eclectic. I was told it from the owners collection of treasures from trips abroad. The food is to die for! The service was good, though the meal was long.

  44. Delicious romantic indulgence
    Perfect for a romantic evening or even if you are dining with friends. Once you have finished your dinner, you can continue your evening at The Forge's lively lounge located right next door.

  47. Best Steak? I don't think so
    The Super Steak puported to be the "best " was good, but I wouldn't say "THE BEST". And no porterhouse on the menu. I miss Luger's "sTEAK FOR tWO" But ambiance was great, portions were large.

    You need big bucks to come here, but it's well worth it. The Forge is undoubtedly the most romantic restaurant in Miami. You will not be disappointed.
