Obra Kitchen Table - Miami
Obra Kitchen Table
Description
Tucked near the water, this chef-driven spot pairs a sleek open kitchen and modern, light-filled dining room with fresh, artfully presented fare. Standouts include whole fish, rack of lamb and inventive desserts; service is professional and attentive. Expect high-quality flavors but occasionally inconsistent seasoning, modest portions and some over-salted or dry plates. Valet and bar service add convenience, making it best suited for special occasions or seafood-focused dinners—an elevated, slightly pricey experience that often delights but can be uneven.

Experience authentic Venezuelan gourmet cuisine expertly crafted by the chef in a cozy and inviting atmosphere. A must-try in Miami!
The food was terrific. We really enjoyed the Fish Soup and the Crispy Brussels appetizers, but were particularly impressed with the Whole Branzino and Roasted Rack of Lamb. The branzino had a spectacular presentation and the fish and vegetables were perfectly done. The Lamb was incredibly tender and had terrific flavor, not even a hint of gamyness. The side fried artichoke was also amazing. My only complaint was the portion of lamb should have been bigger and that some of the smaller pieces of artichoke probably should have been tossed since they were a bit chewy. The Berry Bomb dessert was also well done, the coconut crumble and ice cream being a perfect complement. After watching the video of them preparing the Bomb on the screens in the restaurant we had to try it and it did not disappoint. Will definitely go back.
What I didn’t like: The tomato soup was far too sour and poorly seasoned—it was simply unpleasant. I also agree with another review that the other dishes we ordered were overly dry. It seems like there was an extra charge for sauce, which is puzzling for a restaurant. Offering a little sauce with a dry dish wouldn’t hurt and would improve their overall image. Overall, it was a decent experience, but nothing really wowed me. I’m considering coming back for dinner to try something different.
Great meal at a location close to the water. We tried the arepitas (delicious), the rack of lamb, the corn and avocado risotto and two desserts—flan and fruit bomb. Both were outstanding. Highly recommend.
It should be 6 stars... Excellent is the word to describe the experience. The concept of this place is open kitchen bar style, where you sit down in front of the cooks and watch what they are prepping and cooking. Also tables are available. Is a very nice decor with light colors, in an immaculate ambiance with a very professional crew. The owner chef Carlos Garcia (world class) was in the kitchen the day we visited, hands on the kitchen. We started with 3 appetizers for 2 people thinking they were small portions wrong Burrata Salad very good Brussel sprouts and Kale salad this is one of the dishes that i will repeat every time i visit. Sea Urchin fries good Main course: Carbonara pasta with octopus just amazing Fried fish (whole) yellow snapper, with tostones (fried green plantain) and green slaw; fish was bigger than expected, cooked to perfection. Dessert Pineapple upside down cake more than enough for 2 with a perfect balance of sweets. Service is as good as the food.
