Café Cantante Restaurant — Restaurant in Miami

A Taste of Andalusia in Coral Gables: Olé! Five stars simply don't feel like enough for the experience I had at the Andalusian gem nestled within Granada Plaza, Coral Gable. From the moment I stepped through the door, I was transported to the sun-drenched streets of Seville. The ambiance was warm and inviting, a perfect blend of rustic charm and elegant sophistication. Let's talk about the food. Oh, the food! Each dish was a masterpiece, a testament to the authentic flavors of Andalusia. The tapas were a revelation – crispy croquetas oozing with creamy béchamel, perfectly seasoned gambas al ajillo, and melt-in-your-mouth jamón ibérico that was simply divine. For the main course, I indulged in the paella, a vibrant symphony of saffron-infused rice, fresh seafood, and tender chicken. It was, without exaggeration, the best paella I've ever tasted. The wine and beer selection was equally impressive. The knowledgeable sommelier guided me through a curated list of Spanish wines, perfectly pairing each course with a delightful vintage. And for those who prefer beer, the selection of crisp, refreshing Spanish beers was a welcome surprise; and then, there was dessert. The tarta de Santiago, a traditional almond cake, was the perfect sweet ending to an already extraordinary meal. It was light, flavorful, and exquisitely presented. But what truly elevated this dining experience was the impeccable customer service. The staff was attentive, friendly, and genuinely passionate about sharing their love for Spanish cuisine. They were eager to answer questions, offer recommendations, and ensure that every guest felt welcomed and valued. The location in Granada Plaza adds to the charm, creating a picturesque setting for a memorable meal. This restaurant is a true culinary treasure in Coral Gables. Whether you're a seasoned foodie or simply looking for a taste of authentic Spanish cuisine, this Andalusian restaurant is an absolute must-visit. Prepare to be delighted, enchanted, and utterly satisfied. Olé! HIGHLY...

This place used to be my absolute FAVORITE. Now there is a new Chef. He changed the best thing about the restaurant. You used to be able to go there on any given day and order these mini tapas. On Wednesdays, they were reduced to a special price. I was craving those mini tapas since I like to eat a little bit of everything rather than one main dish. When we went, they no longer had the mini tapas on weekends. Instead, they had tapas for $10.95 EACH. I spent more on my tapas than my husband spent on his main course. The portions were not relative to the price in the least. It used to be good, authentic Spanish food. Now it's gotten "creative", which is fine (my husband is a Chef so I know they do that) but it has taken away from the authenticity of the place. The absolute worse part was that they charged us a $20 "cover charge" because they had musicians paying. I've never paid a cover charge while dining at a restaurant, nor were we informed prior to being seated. I found out because I decided to check the bill when I saw the astronomical amount. I used to go there all the time BUT I WILL NOT BE BACK!!! It's a shame. It really was my...

Went to this place on a Sunday night with my family and we basically had the restaurant to ourselves (there was one couple sitting in the corner). The service was above excellent. Our waiter was very attentive and friendly. He always made sure our glasses were full and we had everything we needed. The food was amazing! We got stuffed peppers, fish croquets, spinach croquets (my favorite), octopus (another favorite), mushrooms stuffed with ham, patatas bravas (spicy and amazing) and chickpeas with chorizo. There is nothing bad I could possibly say about the food. All of it was hot, fresh and delicious. I have never had a spinach croquette, but after tasting those, I am hooked! The patatas bravas (spicy potatoes) amazing! The octopus, oh so delectably fresh and delicious! I highly recommend this place for some tapas and wine! You will not leave...
