Editorial Review for Ortanique on the Mile – by Citysearch Editors
In Short
Ortanique's dining room is a riot of tropical style. Brightly upholstered banquettes on either side of the main dining room are screened off by gauzy curtains. Cuban tile adorns the floor; vivid designs are splashed on the walls and support columns. Chef Cindy Hutson's menu includes curried crab cakes with tangy papaya-lime coulis and swordfish with gratin of boniato and foie gras. Roasted banana cheesecake and Tortuga rum cake are luscious desserts.

Insider Tips
Where to SitIf you want to be in the center of the action, sit in the main dining room. If you're looking for a little privacy, there are banquettes on curtained risers.
What to DrinkThe wine list is long, comprehensive, fairly priced and strong in California chardonnays and cabernets.

Joel, Thanks for the GREAT expericnce sitting with you at the bar and chewing the fat last Tuesday. We had a great dinner and the drinks were outstanding! We went to the Marlins game but wished we had stayed for one more round with you guys I am going to try making the next generation margarita this Wednesday for a dinner party we are having. I hope I can get some good limes here in Chicago. We look forward to visiting you again sometime in the near future! Best regards to you and your family, Tadd & Jenn Gleason

After 3 visits I think I can safely say this is some of the best food in Miami. The food is amazing and the service is perfect. Plan to wait at the bar even with reservations and for a romantic time ask to be seated in the booth area. They have a great wine list and the people are very knowledgeable.
