Very good. Excellent food, service and ambiance. Julianna was great!! Will come back. Superb

My wife and I decided to be ourselves and not do the "fancy" thing for our 26th anniversary, and instead find somewhere unique. Phuc Yea was exactly what we were looking for. Not only were the pre-meal drinks spot on, the food was, in our mind, elevated to a Michelin Star level without the snooty pretentiousness. The smoked braised short ribs were in my mind the only "expensive" dish I've ever had that was 100% worth the price. The Chef definitely knows what he's doing and has the backing of a top notched professional staff to back it up. To give the staff that we met praise, Omar was the best server we've ever had, and the mixologist Daniel at the bar made every drink with distinct perfection.

The PY noodles are a must! It's also such a pretty spot with great service. Overall, it was great.

12/10- everything from decor to ambiance to service to cuisine to drinks was absolute perfection. Don't sleep on the mushrooms, short rib, and watermelon salad. The cocktail list has something for everyone. The bartenders were nice enough not to toss us out but we closed the bar. We can't wait to go back for the chicken.

First, this is one of my favorite restaurants. I've loved and been going for years: the food is different from any other place and always delish. On this occasion, I felt like the pricing has become over the top and the server upsold us a bit with an item that was not what we expected. Unsure if it was his description or we just misunderstood. Anywho, the noodles and wings are a must. Anything else will be delicious, as well, but get ready to pay. $$$$

We recently went back and had an awesome experience. We tried the seared octopus which was the best I've ever had!!! I got the edamame hummus, which tbh wasn't as great as i remembered but was still good I especially love the tostones. I got the yp noodles which were fire and very filling! Someone got the duck and two others shared the short rib ramen (sundays only). They all raved about their dishes. Thanks to our server for the great service and the non stop water fills!

So your probably wondering, what the Phuc was I thinking picking this place. I'll tell you why, when looking up Best Restaurants in Miami this one was at the top of my List. Best Vietnamese Food in the City and one of those Special Food Gems. Phuc means Blessings and Prosperity in Vietnamese, meaning something that's Positive. Well I was positive that I was gonna have a great Meal with my brother, once we finished up out Boat Tour, explored the Bayside Marketplace and cruising through downtown to the Little Haiti area. Smack dab in the middle of Biscayne Boulevard, we parked in the back lot and made out way up the Stairs into the main Dining Room. We were sat down near the Bar area and our Server Ani told us some of the Specials. I started off with a Cocktail called Say Gay which was a bright Orange drink topped with a few Mint Leaves that was Spicy, Tart and Tropical. Flavors of Passionfruit, Hibiscus and Thai Bird Chilies that packed that potent Punch and with Peloton Espadin Mezcal. For out Appetizers we split a Seafood Ceviche (1st taste of Seafood this entire Trip) consisting of Octopus, Shrimp and Bay Scallops mixed with Jicama, Cucumber, Thai Basil, Lemongrass, Nuoc Cham and Lime. Super Fresh and clean tasting with Lime to squeeze over to brighten it up. Next was Crispy Chicken Wings that were coated in a savory Caramel with Fish Sauce, also had some Crispy Tostones to munch on too. Next up was a plate of Spicy Dumplings that were filled with Pork & Shrimp that had Oven Roasted Confit Tomatoes (melt in your Mouth) and a Szechaun Peppercorn Sauce that had some Heat to it. For our Entrees, Nathan got their Buttermilk Fried Chicken (that was marinated in Cajun Spices) with Hot Honey and Sriracha Aioli and topped with a Spicy Watermelon Salad. He said it was one of the Best Fried Chicken dishes that he's ever had. Meanwhile, I got their Masitas de Puerco, which was a 5-Spice Crispy Pork Belly with Shaved Red Onion, Tomato, Lemongrass Sate (sauce that is Garlicky and Spicy), Nuoc Cham and Herbage. 2 Proteins that were both Flavorful and Crispy that we both could not get enough of. Halfway through I told Ani that I would like to try the Bartender's Drink of Choice special. What came in a Martini glass was a drink consisting of Espresso Liqueur, Oregano Syrup and Candied Orange Peel on a Stick. It was a pretty strong mid-dinner Drink, but I handled it with Ease. For dessert, the choices were either a Croissant Bread Pudding or a 5-Spice Carrot Cake, neither of which I was interested in. I saw on their Menu a while back that they had a dessert called Tony in Vietnam, which was something honoring Anthony Bourdain (Best Travel Host ever) and his favorite place to visit in the World, but suffice it to say, it was no longer on the Menu at the time. So I had to settle for a B-Lated Birthday Shot consisting of Rum and Lime Juice in a tall shot glass, the Bar was even kind enough to make a Non-Alcoholic one for Nathan. We slugged them down and them shortly after the rain had passed we headed back to our Hotel. But let me tell you, one of the Best Restaurants of the 305, best place for me to have my B-Lated Birthday Dinner. They treated us with so much Care, great Blessings and Prosperity, they even took a Picture of us together as a Memory. They did such an Extraordinary Job, they did not Phuc it up one bit. !!!

I liked the blending of modern Vietnamese flair with a hint of rebellious attitude. The smoked, bone-in short rib arrives like a centerpiece at a family gathering--tender, flavorful, and served with an array of accompaniments that beg to be mixed and matched. It might have landed with an even bigger punch if they'd turned up the heat a notch, but it still managed to be a dish you remember long after leaving. The cocktails were just as inventive, but my Mai Tai caught me off-guard with a mezcal backbone rather than the familiar warmth of rum. While having the bartender double as a server adds efficiency to the space, it also led to a few gaps in service, and our table occasionally drifted into the background.

Tried several items including the egg rolls and dumplings as well as the PY noodles which were amazing and my absolute favorite! Next time I'm definitely eating in although the take out service was seamless. Great ambiance and great addition to the Miami culinary scene

After a long time of wanting to try Phuc Yea, I finally made it. I have more feelings about my experience. The place is super cute. The service was good. The food on the other hand was very good or just very blah. We ordered the daily special dumplings, which were made of short rib. I didn't like the dumplings. The "cha gio" aka crispy imperial rolls on the other hand were amazing. I wish I would've gotten 2 orders of these. As our main entrees, we got the smoked bone in short ribs, the char siu black cod that came recommend by the server and the millionaire fried rice. The rice was a 10/10 but the other entrees were just okay in my opinion. I was not impressed with the flavors. For dessert we had the bread pudding which sounded amazing but it also was disappointing. The dessert took forever, we almost cancelled it but by the time we got the servers attention he arrived with the dessert. I think the dessert was sitting out for a while because it was pretty cold but we just gave up by that point. I was so sad because I love bread pudding. I would give it another chance but I would order other items on the menu.
