This place has been having such a buzz about it and I have been waiting along time to eat there. Everytime we went there was a wait. Finalyy my chance had come! They had whole red radishes as bar snacks, which were gross. I like radishes in my salad, but never want to chomp on one whole. Was like biting into an onion. When we finally sat down the service was great and menu selection was outstanding. We ordered a plethora of apps (mussels, pate, shrimp, cheese, etc…) was yummy! They have there menu broken out into dish sizes such a small, medium ,and large, insted of apps, entrees etc.
For my main course I had the locally swordfish, which was a bit over cooked even thought the sauce was great. The desert topped it off. Besides the key lime cheesecake my favorite was this chocolate pudding made with olive oila nd sprinkled with salt. Yes salt! Chocolate and salt are my new friends 
Great dining experience, great food, but a little overpriced. I guess that is what you get when dining in a restaurnat that has a buzz about it.
Over all I give this place 3.5 cookies with a lot of choclate chips.

As you can tell by the post, we spent alot of time in Brickell this weekend. This was our second visit to Abokado. Always a good thing if I go back;) What a great mix of latin and Japanese food. Food was so fresh and tasty. Service was great and friendly. A bit pricey, but worth it if you can share a few things between some friends.
3.5 cookies for me!

We have walked by this place many times and finally made a stop in after hearing all the buzz. We made it for Happy Hour. They had 2 for 1 drinks and $6 appetizer specials. We decided to go for the $8 traditional margarita. It was good but seemed a bit short for a margarita(small glass). We ordered the well talked about tables side made guacamole. It was really good! Lost of chunky guac, fresh tomatoes and seasonings. Yummmmmy! I scraped the bowl clean. We also got the Enchiladitas de Pollo which had no doubt the best Molle sauce I have ever had. Again I practically licked the plate clean!! Over all the service we good and the food was great.
Three cookies!!!
