A very good place

Forge breaks Even 3/12/2004

The hype is what brought me to The Forge. The service is excellent but the food turned out to be less than expected. Pros: Waiters, Parking Cons: , Expensive more

Excellent 2/12/2004

We absolutley loved it! We went with about 10 friends and had a great time. The food was divine and the service was incredible. The wine list was superb and so was the service. The sous chef even surprised us by sending out chocolate souffles at no charge. That made our evening! I would definetely go again! Pros: great food, ambiance, great service more

Once upon a time...The Forge was great 8/17/2003

The Forge restaurant was a wonderful classy restaurant while under the management and close eye of Mr. Al Marnick. After the son took over this place has gone down faster than the Titanic. Tasteless dancers on Wednesday nights, and the so called ""events"" are a joke. Same people, all the time. On top of it Chef Cal left and the new chef's creations are bortherline gross. The silverwear doesn't even match! 5 stars? Maybe in another galaxy) more

pooooor ambiance 8/14/2003

You walk in and you feel you are surrounded by sharks on a feeding frenzy. Gold diggers with fake blond hair and implants, and aging nouveau rich men with carpet-looking hairpieces. So fake!!! It's like an xfile episode of what south beach would look like if people stopped having children and all that was left were those ex crobar and space lovers, now in their late fifties, clinging desperately to their long gone youth. I wouldn't call this restaurant romantic at all. Actually, ladies, if you are thinking about going with your man here, and he looks moderately decent, don't you leave him alone...not even to go to the bathroom. If he needs to go, escort him, because I tell you.. women here are desperate. Same goes to men. Pros: beautiful decor, valet parking Cons: ambiance, people, ambiance more

good for parents 3/5/2003

This an old fashioned restaurant. The food and service were excellent, but it's not the hippest joint in town. My parents LOVED it. So I say, if you are taking a group out (or visiting your grandparents), it would be a good choice. There is something for everyone. more

Extravagant yet Civilized 2/12/2003

The place is nice. Massive chandeliers hang in over you, attentive non-pretentious waiters take your order, and many single women stare wondering if that's your Porsche parked outside. The food was good, but easily forgettable. A door in the restaurant gives you access to a club next door where many 30-something Gold-diggers await. Pros: Women, Service Cons: Women, Location more

Fabulous time at the Forge 2/11/2003

I love the ambience of the Forge. The food is great, all the staff knows about the wine and I will always tell my friends to go! I love that place! Pros: people, food, music Cons: crowded at times more

Delicious romantic indulgence 2/11/2003

Perfect for a romantic evening or even if you are dining with friends. Once you have finished your dinner, you can continue your evening at The Forge's lively lounge located right next door. more

Sexy dining 2/10/2003

I love the decor; it's very eclectic. I was told it from the owners collection of treasures from trips abroad. The food is to die for! The service was good, though the meal was long. Pros: great valet pricing, great decor, festive Cons: pricey, long meal more

Best Steak? I don't think so 8/26/2002

The Super Steak puported to be the ""best "" was good, but I wouldn't say ""THE BEST"". And no porterhouse on the menu. I miss Luger's ""sTEAK FOR tWO"" But ambiance was great, portions were large. more

OOOOH BABY 8/5/2002

You need big bucks to come here, but it's well worth it. The Forge is undoubtedly the most romantic restaurant in Miami. You will not be disappointed. more
