The Katz Restaurant and Lounge — Restaurant in North Miami

My friends and I came to Katz for Mellow Mondays. Unfortunately we feel that they have dropped the balls in service. To start with we were charged 20pp for a long booth which would have no problem if the service matched what we paid for. Upon ordering drinks we were pretty much told they didn’t have anything to make drinks with. Our bartender offered to make us martinis, margaritas and other drinks. The drinks took a VERY long time to be made and come back to our table. When they did arrive, they were not good at all. We requested other items such as wine and beer but they were just out of everything. This was a huge let down. We all decided to just stick to mojitos instead. Despite the service being slow, the food, DJ, atmosphere and the POETS were absolutely amazing. The food took a little long but it was worth the wait. It was authentic Haitian food that was full of flavor. The DJ had amazing vibes when playing RNB music keeping the crowd engaged. The performers were real and deep in their delivery with the poems they shared. The feature of the night was the best of all! The only thing I’m disappointed about was paying over 100$ for...

Katz Lounge offers a laid-back yet stylish atmosphere that makes it an ideal spot for unwinding after a long day or kicking off a night out. From the moment you walk in, the ambient lighting and chill music set the tone for a comfortable, upscale experience.

The staff is friendly and attentive without being overbearing, and the service runs smoothly even on busier nights. The cocktail menu is a standout — creative, well-balanced drinks made with premium ingredients. Whether you’re into classics or looking for something adventurous, the bartenders here clearly know their craft.

Seating is cozy and intimate, making it great for both dates and small groups. There’s a solid selection of small bites as well — the truffle fries and sliders are worth trying.

If you’re looking for a lounge that blends sophistication with a relaxed vibe, Katz delivers. Prices are reasonable for the quality, and the overall experience makes it a spot worth revisiting Our bartender name was Marie Ange ask for her when ever you guys...

We stopped by out of curiosity after work, hoping for a quick drink during happy hour. Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing from start to finish.

We ordered a margarita and a cosmopolitan — neither resembled what they were supposed to be, either in taste or quality. The drinks were borderline undrinkable.

Hoping the food might redeem the place, we tried the happy hour meatballs (Caribbean-style) and fried calamari. The meatballs were rock hard — literally impossible to cut with a fork. The calamari was unrecognizable and unpleasant. I honestly wish we’d taken photos, but at that point, I just wanted to leave.

The space itself isn’t clean or well maintained, and once the food hit the table, I was completely turned off. We paid and left immediately to go find actual food and real drinks elsewhere.

It’s a shame — the location is large and has potential, but the execution on every front (food, drinks, service, cleanliness) is a complete failure. I wouldn’t recommend anyone waste their time...
