What Celestino Schimmel dislikes about Bonding:
I read good reviews about this place but ended up very disappointed. The Tea Salad was very sour and my wife ordered fish sauce to make the taste better. I had the Chicken Dau Bauk and the leg was small and very dry. I felt I ate more rice than the chicken, very over priced. This place does not come close to Burma Superstar in SF. View all feedback.

I love this little place. Bonding is a small restaurant but has a lot of heart. The interior is pink and adorable, they have a small menu, and the food was really tasty and portions big. They also serve it really quickly! It's run by this really nicewoman who I think might be the owner.
Prices are high, yes, maybe a little too high. $21 for drunken noodle in a casual environment is odd; however, the food is excellent. Many Thai restaurants struggle so badly with flavorful fried tofu, not this place! Get tofu in your dish, even ifyou are a meat eater. It?s GOOD. The drunken noodle (I ordered vegan) had a rich charred taste (very hard to do). It was rich,garlicky, and beautiful. Mushrooms are a nice touch, but not a fan of the green beans. Overall, worth it.
Amazing food , extremely nice and attentive wait staff. I came here twice while in town for work and will try to come back whenever I?m in town. I had the Green Curry and Drunken Noodles. I highly recommend either. The garlic edamame is also amazing.
3/3/22 OVERDUE UPDATE: They no longer sell sushi(I'm removing this image). only Thai food. Still super delicious and fresh! My top recommendation is the Passionfruit Sake. My favorite food here is the duck salad. Great place to pre-game and have somedelicious grub before a night out in Brickell. Food was amazing and reasonably priced. We tried a variety of dishes and theywere all very good???? I could eat 20 of those dumplings in 1 sitting ???? very happy with this new find. Also the service wasgreat and the passionfruit sake they mix in-house is amaaaziiinggg. If you like Thai food, this is a great place to eat!
My husband and I live right next to it and have never been there before. Which now I think it is a huge mistake on our lives. The restaurant is very well decorated. The service was unexpected how good and sweet the employees were, and the food!!!! OMGthe food was delicious. We over ordered and at the end we felt good that we over ordered because we were happy that we couldhave this delicious food to take home. I just think that everyone should try the Bay of Gold and the Orange Duck. This place hasthe best food that I have tried before in the neighborhood. And that?s why I thought that I definitely need to leave a reviewbecause people needs to know how good they are. I am coming back soon and also suggesting the restaurant for my friends.

This is a small place but cozy, very good service and the food was delicious, highly recommended
Food was good. Fruit flies everywhere make the dining experience unpleasant. The restaurant needs to fix this.

We thoroughly enjoyed the exceptional Thai cuisine and attentive service at this restaurant. However, despite arriving when it was only 50% full, the noise level was already quite high. As the restaurant filled up to almost full capacity, it became nearly impossible to have a conversation with someone sitting across the table. It would be greatly beneficial to have noise reduction elements in place to improve the dining experience.
The wings tasted like they didn't smell anything at all. No sauce on top. The bag of gold tasted like the very reused oil to freeze it. I couldn't taste anything other than fried Filo. The pineapple Fried Rice was bland and wet. Even it had lumps of white rice. The aromas of the green curry were excellent, but unfortunately it was too thin, so it did not coat the pieces of vegetables and shrimp or mix well with rice. It was usually a delicious soup.

I absolutely adore this Thai restaurant in Miami! My personal favorites are their green and red curry dishes, as well as their sake. The service is exceptional, the atmosphere is vibrant and trendy with pink neon lights, and the restaurant is conveniently located in the bustling Brickell area. It's the ideal spot to kick off a fun night out. I highly recommend it!
Oh my goodness! Top-notch restaurant. The service is excellent and the food is delicious. P.S. I am from Thailand. Kid-friendly: Everyone is great.
Food was great! We had garlic shrimp and fried rice and the spice level was on the spot (you can make it as spicy ? as much you want)! They will ask about dietary restriction and also have good veg options. Portion was perfect for one. The environment was nice and ambient, and staffs are friendlyFood: 5/5

I 've been dining at Bond 's restaurants for about 8 years now, so when I heard Bonding was open I just had to check it out. We arrived around 9:45pm on NYE to a packed restaurant, but were seated right away. The restaurant has sort of fuchsia/lavender walls plastered with the 'B ' emblem. The seating area is minimalistic with white tables and chairs. The small menu is packed with fan favorites such as the Cuba Ocho tuna tuna tartar, with avocado, rice, fried wonton chips and a sweet sauce and chicken pad Thai. We ordered both, along with the special K roll tuna roll wrapped in rice paper topped with tuna mixed with a sweet sriracha sauce. Another dish we enjoyed was the ceviche tiradito style with fresh wahoo, soy, and lemon. A dish I was hesitant to try, but ended up loving, was the mee krob. It 's basically crisp rice noodles with a sweet sauce and bits of egg and scallions. Very tasty. This is definitely a dining experience from start to end. The music is pumping, people are lively, and the food is delicious. You can easily spend a few hours 'Bonding '. If you haven 't been, you have to check it out!
What a gem of a place. We just got off a cruise in Miami, and before heading home, we stayed over New Year's Eve, visiting Bonding that evening. We had a really a great dining experience, with dishes that were created from the most unique combination of elements. The Sea Bass was marinated for a week in miso, then cooked to perfection. The duck is a special order from Asia that was the leanest, crispiest, most savory that I have ever had. From beginning to end, this was a great experience. Plus, we met Bond the owner who could not have been more gracious. We will be back.
The food was excellent! Everything we ate was amazing! I highly recommend it!!!
My first dining experience at Bonding is one I will never forget several times during the meal I was nearly transported to a state of nirvana by the incredibly delicious food! It was definitely the best Asian meal of my life. First there was a lovely appetizer called golden pockets, which was a delicate fried wonton sack containing shrimp and shiitake mushrooms exquisite! A delicious sushi called the Brickellpolitan tuna, rock shrimp, and avocado was cold inside with warm crunchy tempura on top such a pleasing contrast! The curried duck dish was the both the best duck and the best curry I've ever had. The duck was very tender and not at all greasy (as is often the case). I won't forget the incredible green curry sauce I can still taste it in my memory! Even my husband, who generally is not a fan of duck, loved it. The crowning jewel of the meal was the sea bass which just melted in my mouth so flavorful and so delicate definitely a world class recipe. I will dream of it!!! Even the sake was the best I've ever had so much more tasteful than any I've had previously. The staff was very friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere relaxed. All the dishes were displayed so beautifully. There is truly artistry behind this restaurant and its creative offerings. I look forward to retuning to Miami so that I can try more of the exquisite menu at Bonding!
