点评:My husband and I had a dinner reservation at 7 PM for two, and we were denied entry at the door because of his jeans, which had a small rip only a few inches big—nothing massive or over the top.
The doorman told us once we got in we can’t come in due to the rip on the jeans. He barely made eye contact and dismissed us with, “Go home and change,” claiming ripped jeans were “strictly prohibited by the owner.” Here’s the issue: I received the dress code via text (see photo), and it says nothing about ripped jeans. It only specifies “elegant chic,” which is exactly what my husband was wearing—a button-down shirt with jeans. This rule is completely subjective and seems to rely on the doorman’s personal opinion. If the expectation is for men to wear suits or if ripped jeans are banned, then clearly state that in the dress code.
To suggest that someone should “go home and change” is laughable. Miami isn’t a city where jumping back home and returning to a dinner reservation is convenient, nor should it be necessary for a subjective judgment of what counts as “elegant.”
The man in the Bugatti who arrived just before us was waved in without issue. Kiki on the River treats people differently based on their party size, appearance, or perceived status. This isn’t a couple-friendly restaurant—it’s about the vibe and show, not quality.
For context, I’ve been to Kiki plenty of times with larger groups of girlfriends. I already am aware that the food is mediocre and service sucks. It’s a place for the vibe and music.
People go for the ambiance, which, frankly, you can find at plenty of other waterfront restaurants in Miami that treat guests with more dignity and respect.
Would NOT recommend
翻译:我和丈夫预订了晚上 7 点的双人晚餐,但我们被拒绝入内,因为他的牛仔裤有一条小裂口,只有几英寸大——没有太大或太夸张。
门卫告诉我们,我们一进门就不能进,因为牛仔裤上有裂口。他几乎没有看我们一眼,就说“回家换衣服”,并声称“老板严禁”穿破洞牛仔裤。问题是:我通过短信收到了着装要求(见照片),上面没有提到破洞牛仔裤。它只规定“优雅别致”,而这正是我丈夫穿的——一件带纽扣的衬衫和牛仔裤。这条规则完全是主观的,似乎取决于门卫的个人意见。如果期望男士穿西装,或者禁止穿破洞牛仔裤,那么在着装要求中明确说明。
建议某人“回家换衣服”是可笑的。迈阿密并不是一个可以方便地跳回家并回到晚餐预订地点的城市,也不应该成为主观判断什么是“优雅”的必要条件。
在我们之前到达的那个开着布加迪的男人毫无顾忌地被招手示意进去。Kiki on the River 根据人们的聚会规模、外表或感知到的地位来区别对待他们。这不是一家适合情侣的餐厅——它注重氛围和表演,而不是质量。
就背景而言,我和一大群女朋友去过 Kiki 很多次。我已经知道这里的食物很平庸,服务也很差。这是一个注重氛围和音乐的地方。
人们喜欢这里的氛围,坦率地说,你可以在迈阿密的许多其他海滨餐厅找到这种氛围,这些餐厅对待客人更有尊严和尊重。
不推荐
