The DiLido Beach Club

We stopped by for an impromptu lunch off the beach walk. Great service, we were seated quickly. I had the Mediterranean salad with shrimp which was incredible. One of the best salads I ever had. So fresh! My fiancé had the cheeseburger and it was amazing. They were very accommodating to our dietary restrictions too. Highly recommended!

Shrimp Flatbread rocks for lunch. I started eating here because it’s convenient since it’s located inside the Ritz where I stay when in Miami and don’t want to go back to my place in Fort Lauderdale. Don’t know if it’s worth $ 25.00 bucks but as they say location, location, location! Views are nice since right on the beach but so are the views from the hotel rooms. Convenience again is my plus but the shrimp flatbread stands alone on its own. I’ll keep paying the $ 25 :)

Walked passed Lincoln road one day and decided to head over to the beach, starving while walking but we didn’t want to settle in Lincoln road for the restaurants there. So we have decided to continue the walk and finally there was the Dilido. So we’ve decided to grab a bite. Had the pork sliders $ 8/​each and crab cakes $ 14/​each as recommended by our waitress. It was great! Love it. If I ever go back, we will definitely stop there again and grab another bite. The best part was we had a beach view! Amazing!

This place must be known for views and cocktail because I had dinner here last night and not a big fan. I had the lobster vermicelli and mushroom, both were so salty and oily. Truly disappointed Unilocal.Wrong rating.

We came here on a holiday weekend afternoon. It is a great atmosphere on the boardwalk and good for people watching as another review mentioned. I got the salmon Caesar salad and my girlfriend got the tuna crudo. I also got a Bloody Mary. I liked the salmon Caesar salad. However, I am inclined to only give three stars maybe four stars simply because I feel they could have a decent creative Bloody Mary to go with the meal or a little better food. The tuna crudo was nothing special. The pretzel bite appetizers though were a nice touch. Anyway, good enough food/​drinks for people watching on the boardwalk.

Food is excellent, Moroccan chicken pita with truffle Parmesan fries — yummy. My son had the sirloin burger and fries .- massive and delicious. Loved it last year and again this year at our second stay at the Ritz. The view of the beach is wonderful !

I was sitting at the bar enjoying a beautiful view of the beach with some drinks and appetizers. There was a band that played some of my favorite tunes. It is an ideal kickback for Sunday funday in south beach. The hospitality service is beyond exceptional. All the servers are very friendly and attentive.
For the location and setup the price is fair amongst other spots. The reason i gave it four stars is because the food was not that tasty. For a ritz property I would assume the food is tasty how it is described in the menus.
I recommend bringing some friends to enjoy the company with each other. It is also good to shake it off on the dance floor while the band plays your song. Sunscreen and depending on the season mosquito repellent is not a bad idea to have.

Had a great Sunday here yesterday. It was a very nice day (which it would have to be because this place is almost completely under sun). The mimosas where flowing and a local band was playing popular cover songs. It sort of felt like I was on vacation which is nice. I never really feel that way since I live on the beach, but it had a very big tropical feel to the bar. I ordered the $ 20 burger and though expensive, well worth it because it was delish, filled with grilled onions, bacon and all the usual fix’ns. Me and my friend split it and they cut it and even split the fries for us, very cool. Staff is wonderful and accommodating. This is a great place to go and destress, have a drink and listen to good music on a Sunday afternoon.

I love The DiLido Beach Club. I work at a local boutique hotel and I send guests there all the time. I’ve been there a handful of times with friends, family from out of town, and we spent my boyfriends birthday there this past year. We love the location and the food and drinks usually never let us down, plus we have our «Locals Card». But on our last visit, we were a bit shocked with the quality of service and food! Our whole experience took two hours and we had one round of drinks (because the server never came back over to offer another round and by the time we could get him over to us we were just ready to go), we ordered an appetizer along with each our own entrees but the entrees came before the appetizer? So we cancelled the appetizer of course, not knowing if it had even been ordered. And I sent my entrée back because it wasn’t cooked properly. They did go extra measures to try and make up for the entrée by sending out the app that we originally ordered and we appreciated that sincerely. I understand when a restaurant is busy and if a server is overwhelmed but The DiLido was just not up to its usual standards on this particular day. Hoping our next visit will be better!

15 minutes for a server to realize we are sitting on couch. Manager missed it too. Something is very off here today. Not the normal quality ritz service. Clueless low quality wait staff. Dirty dishes sitting in front of us for 20 minutes. Space cadet manager on duty.

Loooooooooooooooooooove this place!!! Service is phenomenal drinks are yummy foooood is beyond fresh and scrumptious! The live music and the view is just amazing, right on the beach! I had oysters they were fresh!!! Then I had their tuna it was delicious. My boyfriend had they’re sliders the phenomenal! I would definitely go back when I come back Miami!!!

Ritz Carlton’s beachside bar /​restaurant. We stopped by while strolling down the beach for some lunch and people watching.
I got a lamb and pork slider ($ 8/​ea) and the g/​f ordered the seared tuna appetizer as an entrée.
A plate of pretzel-​y rolls is provided with an addictive, tangy, cheese-​y dipping sauce (
)
I loved the braised lamb slider (
) which was juicy, nicely seasoned with middle eastern flavors, and slightly game-​y. The pulled pork slider (
) was tender, but even with the chili aioli, the tasted paled vs. the lamb.
The seared tuna appetizer was excellent with grated daikon, radish slices, avocado sauce, sliced jalapenos and torn nori pieces with micro-​cilantro on top (
) Thick slices of tuna. Good combo of sweet, spicy, salty, and crunchy. This was worlds better than the tuna tataki we had the night before at Kone.

I was a bit skeptic eating here but when someone else is treating, heck why not!
The view is amazing, the weather was beautiful, and ambiance tropical relaxation. I’ve been a Miami native, born and raised. I tend to avoid the tourist overprice traps. Ritz Carton’s Dilido does not disappoint! The food is priced right because you’re in south beach and it’s delicious.
Cocktail consisted of an old fashion which had the right amount of liquor. My coworkers also enjoyed theirs as well! For my entrée I ordered the braised lamb with goat cheese slider! The meat was perfectly marinated in Cabernet. The cheese complimented the lamb delightfully. Even the toasted buns added texture to the slider. I definitely wanted another one but I was full!
I work right across the street and will probably be eating here again and again!

My second time here at this cute little hangout bar by the beach.
Perfect spot to get a little shade after soaking up the sun. The appetizers are decent, the bartenders are really friendly and keeps your glass full at all times.
During the night there is always good music playing loud enough to enjoy but not club level loud where you can’t comfortable have a conversation.
Restrooms are clean considering it’s beach side.

Beautiful restaurant on the beach – just gorgeous.
The food was lackluster, I had higher expectations for the food. I had a salad with shrimp-​there were four shrimp… four.really.three dishes of food for 126.00 and noone finished their food. Loved the views to the beach, just gorgeous. The trees and landscaping could use some pruning i constantly had foliage falling into my food, wasn’t the highlight of the lunch. Eeeks, hope they raise the standards of the food to the level of the Ritz! Great customer service, great waitress and hospitality. A miscarriage of the brand-​taste was not there at all.

I was looking for a table with a view, away from the mesmerizing drone of misting fans and squeaking thongs. A last minute booking at DiLido was spot on. It has a sea view from back off the boardwalk, tucked in behind the Ritz. The meals were simple and really tasty with fantastic service. I have to say, the loud wanker on the table next to us, had apparently met a lot of famous folks in his life, and wanted to be sure we knew that too. But, DiLido made up for the human P.A. system. It really is a great place to escape the hum-​drum.

Very surprised this restaurant is in the Ritz Carlton. It is far from the standards of other Ritz Carlton restaurants around the world. It’s on the beach, so the view is nice but the food and service were pretty poor. Even the grass and trees are not tended to very well. This place needs a complete makeover.

The views are pretty amazing here. We were on the beach for a couple of hours when we decided to go for a walk. After walking for awhile I decided I wanted to stop somewhere for a cocktail, but wanted to avoid walking back to Ocean Drive. We went up near the beach walk area and casually stumbled upon DiLido. It was just what I needed: a nice, clean, bathroom & some beverages.
We sat at the little couch and table area off to the side. We enjoyed soaking up the sun with some cold (expensive) drinks in our hands.
I am so happy we found this place just from the beach. I definitely would like to come back here next time for lunch. Again, the view — incredible.
*They had a dispenser filled with fruit infused cold water, and small cups on the side for anyone :)

EXPENSIVE.
But its in the Ritz so I guess it goes without saying?
I enjoyed my $ 80 lunch for 2 here that consisted of 2 alcoholic drinks, small plate of ceviche and calamari and 2 side salads.
I tried to keep my diet while in South beach (minus the alcohol). Drinks here are $ 17. The most I paid the entire stay. The service here was great. The tap water was infused with cucumbers and was very refreshing. I was on «vacation» so I didn’t let the bill bother me too much.
The restaurant is right on the beach. I would go here again because even though we didnt each much it was one of our better meals this past weekend.

Amazing! I love Di Lido at the Ritz!
The location is perfect. After the girls and I lay out at the beach we love to come to Di Lido, right off the boardwalk for a drink and snacks.
The Impact Mojito is my favorite. It has the consistency of a frozen daiquiri but it’s a mojito. Delicious.
I also like the fresh oysters and hummus plate. I will upload a pic to Unilocal.
The view right out to the water is very nice and it’s good people watching upon the boardwalk as well. Service is always fantastic and Di Lido is a must if you’re in the Lincoln/​boardwalk area of South Beach.
