Marián KukuricúdusOctober 13, 2013One of the best restaurants I have ever been at. Original french onion soup tastes like near Eiffel tower and Chicken Parmigiano is awesome! Be careful, it is really big portion ;) and sit outside!
MashkaOctober 28, 2012Get the "regular" size Van Dyke salad for $5 and add regular size grilled chicken for 3.50. Massive salad w great portion and tasty chicken
Victoria BabunNovember 8, 2013Tom is hosting tonight. Give him a smile or wink. Kristin is at the bar ready to serve you tonight, music starts at 9pm with an awesome musician influenced by Gavin DeGraw & The Beatles.
The FreehandSeptember 26, 2013Happy hour: It's short but sweeet, with $6 cocktails and mojitos + $4 sangria. We like a little Arnold Palmer with a sweet tea vodka. (M-F, 5-7pm)
Billy RobertsDecember 2, 2010they have a lot of vegetarian options! their veggie burgers soo good. got mine with gorgonzola cheese and it was pretty amazing. their middle eastern platter is also delicious!
Awesome ceviche. Stacked quesadillas. Strong mojitos. Prime patio and people watching. What's not to love?
Fiocchi di formaggio e pere, Chocolate soufflé & the Bread Pudding are worth the flight to Miami (ask for extra basil with the fiocchi!)
Luis AvilaAugust 12, 2011Very french in that you can enjoy a delicious meal. (they are all great - no like return) and cruise all the beautiful people.
Galina YatsuraNovember 14, 2013Simply divine caprese and fettuccine alfredo. All home made pasta cooked by Italians.
BillboardAugust 20, 2013Perfect for a low-key Miami night. Wine, dine & enjoy some Latin vibes with a view of Lincoln Road.
Enzio BrazNovember 27, 2013Must going place on Lincoln Rd. Get a place outside and listen to Jazz music. Open until late night.
WorldLoungeRadio.comJuly 15, 2011Dont miss the live music upstairs. Enjoy an intimate setting great drinks and good music all in one space!- Tip is included. Winter weather = outdoor seating. 30 min. needed for the soufflet, so plan accordingly. Ps: plan accordingly -it's delicious!
Dean DiefendorfSeptember 8, 2013Nice place. Attentive service. Great indoor/outdoor ambience. Food is better than average, not stellar.
Miami New TimesAugust 22, 2012Some of the best breakfast on SoBe to start the morning or wrap up the night! Always a great experience!
Brenda LeguisamoSeptember 1, 2010My favorite for delicious brunch outside while people watching in Lincoln Road any day of the week. Great evening live performances on second floor.
Marion MarvilJuly 21, 2013Try the Cucu Collins - One of my favorite drinks - with cucumber and mint... Yes!
Phil CotaAugust 23, 2013Order the turkey burger with sweet potato fries and wash it down with a vodka soda
People watching? Every previous instance is merely practice for the experience at the Van Dyke. People watching, food, drink, and jazz on the 2nd floor. Rock on.
Daniella Veras @DaniellaVerasFebruary 18, 2013Try the Strawberry Caipiroska - Strawberry lemonade with vodka. Delightful!
NadiaFebruary 28, 2012Live jazz on the 2nd floor. Great drink menu. Try the Mango cosmo. Very good!!
AmbitionLifestyleAugust 10, 2011Great food, great people, great atmosphere. Dinning outdoor is great after a day of checking out the Everglades
Robert CarterDecember 24, 2013If you're lookin' for some down home blues...catch the Joey Gilmore Band at the Van Dyke upstairs.
The penne Salmon with vodka sauce is outstanding so is the chicken quesadilla

Van Dyke is one of the best live venue spots in Miami Beach. Great staff. Great food. Great atmosphere.
Stephanie OzaetaOctober 30, 2013The service was horrible!!! Went on a weekday for lunch. Our food took an hour to come out even though the place was not packed. When we finally got our food it was cold. Not going back anytime soon!
Michelle HigginbothamJuly 18, 2011Italian mozzarella sandwich add proscuitto with the side salad.... Wonderful!
Try the Bread Pudding - Nice way to satisfy my midnight craving.
Ivan at the bar is the nicest & friendliest bartender on Lincoln rd.
