When a restaurateur spends $1mm on a renovation, I'm willing to give it another go.  It's the biggest sign imaginable that they are committed to their restaurant.  Spending a $1mm means they acknowledge their shortfalls and are hitting the reset button.  I'll give them a shot.

Too bad he didnt also overhaul the horrific service as well.

The food here sucks...and now it looks even worse. Calling avocado foam a smear of guacamole is not only plain ridiculous but is not going to make the food taste better either.

The space looks fantastic! Very Miami! I just hope the food and service have GREATLY improved. Never have been impressed by either. It takes more than a coat of paint to make a restaurant.
