I absolutely LOVED Pao. The service was fantastic & ambience was very lively. The food was delicious & I left wanting to try the Foie Gras since I was so full. I will be returning!

Memorable service and beautiful ambience. Food was presented exquisitely. The Wagyu Carpaccio was by far my favorite dish.

My recent stay at the Faena Hotel Miami was nothing short of exceptional. Everything from our room accommodations, to the service, and to meals was outstanding. I highly recommend dining at the Faena's Pao restaurant.
