House of Food Porn

Third Times a Charm This was the 3rd time my husband and I have gone to dinner at House of Food porn. The first 2 times were amazing and the 3rd time was just as spectacular. The food and service were amazing. Every time we’ve gone, we’ve met amazing people also enjoying the unique experience and this time was the same. I’ve never experienced a restaurant where you walk in and sit with strangers and leave with new friends. The House of Food Porn truly is a “house” and not a restaurant. Expect amazing people, expect amazing service and expect amazing food! It will meet all of your expectations and then some.

Amazing place !!!! House of Food Porn is absolutely amazing !!! The food is great as well as the drinks and such a cool atmosphere to get together with friends for any occasion ! Amazing place. Also the host Nicole was so fun and great !

Hospitality at its finest If you like trying new things, the art of dining and value experiences over material things, this restaurant is probably right up your alley.

Nicky is one of the finest hosts you will ever meet. She is thoughtful, kind and a conversationalist. Nicky and her husband Franco, who is the chef, create an immersive experience in that it's a Chef's table scenario with interaction and engagement of all of the diners together.

The food was delicious and the addition of edible flowers made for beautifully plated courses.

Everyone, including the other diners, was an absolute delight. This has to go on your Miami agenda. Book early and aim to leave with plenty of time to get to the restaurant - I visited during spring break and it was hard to get a ride share ordered and then the traffic getting off the island from South Beach was pretty bad.

House of Food Porn This was hands down one of the most memorable and unique dining experiences of my life. Everything about this concept, the chef and place is unique and phenomenal. A culinary journey that I wasn’t expecting. Top 3 restaurants I have ever been to in my entire life.

INSANE!!!! My wife and I celebrated our 6yr anniversary last night (our first date) at House of Food Porn with our host/chef and friend of 20+yrs Frank A Blanco a.k.a Summer Santa lol. His collaboration of different types food placed into a roll is incredible!!! Thank you again brother! Marcy and I had a great time. 🙌🏻

So special and unique It was my first time at house of food porn. My husband and I plus another couple got a very special experience with live cooking and a super relaxing atmosphere. The food we had was called shu-shi 🙂 I can only recommend a dinner there cause it was just delicious and special.

Was so much fun; I did it twice!
Chef was informative & engaging - the ShuShi was delicious & the drinks were fantastic! Thank you so much for a wonderful evening

When planning a Galentine's When planning a Galentine's dinner for my dear friends and I, who are Covid Nurses, there was honestly only one place that checked off all the boxes for my group of girls: Fun, unique, smart, tasty, and a little naughty... House of Food Porn! There's no other place in town like this. From the moment you walk in, you are welcomed with huge warm smiles and laughter, as Chef Franco and Nicky invite you in to their home. They had surprises lined up for us the whole evening, starting with the beautiful personalized table settings, fantastic wine, awesome cocktails, great conversation, and off course the one and only Shushi! The mystery of not knowing what your next bite will be is part of the allure of The House of Food Porn, and we were never disappointed. Every dish was quite an adventure, that always ended with a great story from Chef Franco explaining how each dish came to be. In the world we're living now, they took every precaution to make us feel safe with clean wash clothes in between each dish and maintained social distancing. Thank you Chef Franco, Nicky, and your wonderful team for making my team feel so special!

World class service and food World class service and food! Nicky and Frank make this experience memorable. Do not be scared by the exterior!

Excellent ShuShi, great atmosphere If you are open to new tastes, love delicious (and unique) food bites, are curios to get to know the chef and all these in a cosy, home - like atmosphere with just a couple of interesting people around you, then this is the place for you.

I celebrated my birthday with them and every moment exceeded all my expectations. They make you feel like everything is created specially for you only (and partially it is :))

Thank you Nicky and Frankie for the great night and the delicious ShuShi!

Our future Florida trips will always include a stop at The House of Food Porn

This is an experience everyone should try. The chef's creations are just exquisite. Each bite is an "O" in your mouth. And Nikki now pairing with amazing cocktails it's another level. And their house wine.....delicious!!! I can not say enough about the quality of the food and how amazing the service is at House of Food P0rn. Reservation required and everything is personalized. We have been there many times and each time is unique and amazing!

Will be returning! Stumbled upon this establishment randomly online and so grateful I did! I booked in advanced the 11 course for my husband and I’s 10th anniversary. Upon reserving you pay in advance and write a description about you and whoever else is joining and why. Make sure you do this because it helps them, make your experience that much more personal and memorable.

We Ubered there, as suggested, and rang the door bell. Nicky, the wife, greeted us with open arms, a rose, a welcoming smile, and positive upbeat attitude that just made us get amped up for the night! We were seated at our assigned spots with our names and gifts to open later. (I won’t name them so you still get the surprise elements when you go).

The environment was warm and welcoming. If you come, please have in mind you are sharing an experience and an intimate dinner with the chef, his wife and others who paid to be there so expect to be social and enjoy the company of others. It’s apart of the fun experience!

Chef is beyond talented. The food ….I don’t even have the words to describe. So amazing, delicious, creative, fresh and filling. Chef goes over the ingredients and tells you about each dish after you have enjoyed it. Keep in mind, you are not told what you are having until after. So don’t try to Google the menu, plus why would you?! It’s apart of the fun! They pair cocktails, wine, champagne and infused water with your meals. NEVER did our glass reach half empty since their waitress and wife are SUPER attentive and pay very close attention to details. And those little details, make a huge difference.

This experience was the best! Go! Do it! Enjoy the food, the experience, the strangers seating around the table with you. You won’t regret it!

We will definitely be coming back!

Wonderful time Had a wonderful 11 course tasting last night, Nicky and Chef Franco make you feel right at home and kept the evening moving right along and Natalia made sure your water and wine glasses never reached half empty. Chef came out after each course and left us guessing what the primary and secondary ingredients were - delicious but I can say I got more than a few right.

A delicious journey for all your senses The House of Food Porn is a truly unique experience from beginning to end. We had the 8 course tasting and it was perfect. Chef Franco, Nicky and Natalia made our dinner seem like a dream. Each dish is a surprise to put in your mouth, enjoy and then guess and find out which ingredients and magic make your tasting buds travel around the world. The wine and drinks paired with the dishes are absolutely delightful.

The locale has a unique and unforgettable design. Nicky is the perfect host. And Chef Franco truly enjoys cooking and sharing his love for food with others. It is an absolute joy to see him prepare the dishes and Nicky and Natalia took care of all the small details that make a dining experience perfect. They even send you home with an after dinner gift so you know you did not imagine the whole experience in your dreams.

Food Porn is indeed the best way to describe this experience. Our dining mates were awesome, hailing from UK, the Dominican Republic and several parts of Florida. We will definitively be back for more…

AWESOME EXPERIENCE LIKE ALWAYS !!!!! Everything was excellent from the amazing food to the amazing service!
Frank and Nicky are rock stars!!!!

No title Excellent in every aspect. First time yesterday. For sure not the last!!!!!! Service a nd food incredible

Couldn't have been more perfect !! I secretly chose this place to celebrate with my fiancé after a surprise proposal while in Miami on vacation. One of the best choices I've ever made. I'd been in contact with Nicky over email and she was VERY happy to be in on this big conspiracy. Ha-ha. You'd think they were family she (Nicky) was so excited when we got there. Our seats were personalized and prepared perfectly to celebrate this very special occasion. The food was beyond amazing. Mind-blowing !! Was an experience we will never forget. We'll definitely be back to eat here on future visits to Miami. Thank you so much Chef Frank, Nicky and Luisa.

A must for any Foodie Most unique dining experience for real foodies in Florida
Nicky and Chef Franco are absolutely the most creative, entertaining , And their love and passion for food is A+

amazing experience love it! the food is delicious and the restaurant is beautiful ! had a wonderful time can’t wait to go back

Dining Experience Like no other There are places you go to eat, and then there are places that have amazing food, incredible service and an all-out one of a kind dining experience. Don’t judge a book by its cover, get inside and be ready to be wined and dined!

wonderful experience!!! What a great experience!!! Had an amazing date night here. Chef Frank was such a great instructor, and his "Shushi" idea is just genius. I would 100% recommend this place for anyone looking for a date night or a night out with friends!!!

Ahhh my opinion pf tghis magnificant restaurante Hello, ive hust eaten hiere and ma frend and yo estem very satisfieds and oui nous avons agrees dat much cet manger de la restaurante. Magnificient.

Words cannot express the amount of gratitude I have for Nicole and Chef. They squeezed a reservation in for me and made it exceptionally special. They elevated my boyfriend and I's experience to a level I didn't think was possible in a contemporary restaurant. We were greeted with such positive energy, I knew I had come to the right place. They made our experience so personal I can't believe there aren't more place like this. I'm so happy I cam look back on this as one of the most memorable times of my life and I cannot wait to return! Thank you Chef and Nicole for your hospitality and allowing us to experience your version of shushi!

What a unique experience!! This place is a must do. The food was always a surprise as we did not know what we were eating until we tasted it. Every roll was delicious but if I had to choose the salmon one was one of my favorites. Sushi like I had never had. Nicole the host was fabulous; nice, funny and very attentive. Chef Frank is a spectacular cook. I highly recommend this eating experience to all. Reservations are a must.

A very special experience. A very special experience.
I found the restaurant on the PBS show check please a while ago. When I made the reservation I mentioned it was for a birthday. They went above and beyond but the treated everyone in the restaurant exactly the same, like we were family. The food was wonderful and different. The atmosphere was terrific!
We had a great time! Highly recommend for a new experience.

There’s nothing quite like it, anywhere! Even better the 2nd time! The HOFP remains open for dining-in because, as Chef Frank’s beautiful wife Nikki the hostess told us, they’re a #privatedining establishment and don’t fall under the label of typical restaurant.
Whether you go for the 6-course or 8-course, this really is unlike any foodventure you’ll have in Miami.
Thank you Chef Frank and the whole HOFP fam for an unforgettable evening. You took my tastebuds on a psychedelic journey around the world!
See you again very soon!

Out Of This World! I am not one to leave reviews , but with this amazing restaurant experience and the food that I am still day dreaming about, I just had to share the love for all my fellow trip advisors. Your Miami experience will not be complete until you eat at House of Food Porn. Friday was my first time eating there (my boyfriend has eaten here before and knew he had to bring me.) Franky and Nicky honestly made me feel like family. This was a such a genuine and unique dining experience. Nicky makes Bloody Mary shots out of this world and Franky, OMG, he have the hands of a god with the food he creates. Don’t believe me? Go and you will see exactly what I mean. Can’t wait to go again! You guys rock ! 😋🏡🍢👅

Great finding and very different experience I made a reservation not knowing what to expect as it is not a traditional restaurant but, we like to try different things so I was very intrigued and WOW what a great experience. It is private dining, you have the place to yourself and the Chef and Nikki are there to make your experience wonderful and the food ……… what can I say, just amazing. Definitely worth going and I will go back for sure, great idea for a birthday party or special occasion or just a fun different night with friends, just loved it 😍

Asian Tasting What an amazing tasting menu by Chef Frank. Everything was of high quality ingredients and well seasoned....
Chef Frank and the host made us feel like family with incredible hospitality.
Book your table now as it is limited seating.
Don't forget to ask for the Lava cake

What an AMAZING experience!!!!!! Chef Franco, his partner Nicki, and their staff did an AMAZING job of making this night a wonderful memory. Franco's passion for food comes through clearly. Nicki's attention to details as the host are phenomenal. This is a must do in Miami for FOODIES.

A one-of-a-kind, delicious experience! I can't say enough good things about House of Food Porn! My fiance booked our reservation for a celebratory dinner the evening we got engaged. From the time we walked through our door and were greeted with a rose by the hostess, we knew this was not a typical dining experience. From the customized table decor to the conversations with the chef about each course to the excellent hospitality (my wine glass never got below half full!), this is truly a special dining experience that should be at the top of your list when in Miami. The "Shushi" was unbelievable - such creative tastes and each dish looked like a work of art. We have told all of our friends and family about HOFP and can't wait to go back next time we're in Miami. The owners created the most memorable and special dining experience to celebrate our engagement -- we are so grateful!!

HolyShushi!! Can’t say enough about House of Food Porn! From the ambiance, to the chef/hostess and the food, everything/one here is AMAZING! A true culinary adventure provided by Frank while Nikki makes you feel truly at home and attended to. I would definitely recommend House of Food Porn to everyone and will be back again!

Just wow! One of the greatest experience I ever had. The food was delicious, love the mofongo shushi, my favorite! Nicole was amazing and Chef Frank! Can't wait to go back!!

A food experience like no other! If you are an adventurous foodie who loves food as an experience this place is not to be missed. Do not be detoured by the price tag- its worth every penny! The service is impeccable and its so much more than just excellent food. Every night seats just 8 ppl at 7pm. I was simply blown away! 5 stars.

Best anniversary dinner ever I hope I can Make this review as special as they made the experience for us.
First, made my reservation online for our 1 year anniversary. They have a comment section that they ask you to describe the occasion and other things about yourself, which they remember ! That’s always a great thing to do as a business. Upon entering, we weren’t sure where to park (behind not on the side). There’s a doorbell, you ring and they welcome you like a Cuban family party, open arms, hugs/handshakes and all. You’ll be surprised walking in at the beautiful yet simple decor with a 1500 piece chandelier put together by Nicky herself. She welcomes you and sits you at your pre assigned seats. It feels like a bar but decorated with rose petals, name tags, “feliz anniversario” (happy anniversary) and cute mason jars and chocolates. They put chickpeas and wasabi for snacks while they serve you wine and infused water. Nicky explains where she’s from and how the chocolates come from her amazing country of Germany. Nicky is a great hostess, your glass is never empty! You may have more than a bottle so please be sure to drink at your pace or have an uber ready
Next, Frankie explains to you the restaurant and prepares the 6- course meal. I’d have to say each and every dish was delicious and had amazing flavors that’ll bring out all your happiest taste buds. From rolls filled with lamb and fillet minion to rolls filled with every fish in the sea, you will not complain. It’s a true foodies adventure land. The smallest downside besides being in the “ghetto”, is if you’re not a drinker, you may find the price to be a little out of budget. The food is worth It regardless, if i did This again, id do an 8-course meal or have them cater a party! I love The concept and will be coming again!

Delicious and unique experience What an amazing experience! The food was creative, delicious, and satisfying! The experience was intimate, professional, and sexy. I just moved to Miami and came here tonight for my birthday dinner and I am hoping to come back again this weekend when my friends are in town! Thank you so much for everything!

This is the third time I get to experience House of Food Porn and every time it keeps getting better and better! This is the third time I get to experience House of Food Porn and every time it keeps getting better and better! This place is definitely one of a kind! Do not be detoured by the outside - it's worth it once you get inside. The service is exceptional and the food was delicious. The bottomless wine is a huge plus!
The restaurant only sits around 12 people so it's very intimate and personalized. We did the 5 course tasting menu. Everything served is basically bite sized concoctions of food meant to resemble a sushi roll but without the raw fish component. Very unique experience definitely worth checking it out!!!

If you have to choose only one fine dining experience in Miami, this is it!

Awesome for "Tweeners" We live in Hollywood Florida and I call us "Tweeners". This means that we seek interesting restaurants in Miami, but only 20 miles or so from home and far from the hustle and bustle and crowds and the VIBE. Sometimes interesting and quiet dining is what we seek. If this is what you want GO FOR IT here. What a great fusion of food. Well thought out flavors and preparation. Fun atmosphere and interaction with chef and staff. We had a blast. This is a great place for foodies who are interested in all the components of the meal and who like to be entertained.

Underground, Hidden, Off the Grid.....but Superbly Delicious! Just getting to it is an adventure...but don’t let that detract you for what is inside.... a orgasmic culinary delight...with your clothes still on...

Chef and Host Nikki greet you with such care and warmth, you realize immediately you are about to embark on a non-typical restaurant outing...

The food, the presentation, the cadence, all of it is an event...it’s like a tapas bar on steroids but even that does not justify the reality...no menu it’s Chef’s Choice...the first bite is unknown but than the flavors and love starts to evolve and before you know it your 6 courses have come and gone and you yearn for more...

All I can say our party of 6 had a blast and Chef Frankie and Nikki made it all happen thank you!

I’ll come back to Miami just to eat here again I was unsure about this place when I initially booked my reservation, but my apprehension was dispelled as soon as I walked in. Nicki greeted me and I immediately felt like family. She explained what the experience would consist of and poured a glass of their great house wine. Then Chef Frank came out and introduced himself and gave his backstory and I knew I was in for a treat. Each roll that came out was a surprise and each one was equally delicious. Overall, this was one of, if not the best dining experiences I’ve had in my life. If you’re on the fence about this place, take the plunge. You will not regret it.

Blown Away I was surprised by my wife for our 20th anniversary celebration. Stepping into the House of Food Porn certainly gives you a different vibe. Honestly, I was not too impressed by the facade of the establishment. But I would not want to disappoint my wife. Knowing her, she must have very good reasons as to why we ended up there.
Initially, what impressed us was the personalized pampering from our gracious hostess Nicky. When the meals started arriving, we were blown away! We've traveled the world & visited gastronomic capitals but NEVER have we experienced SHUSHi at its best. Excellent dining experience that cannot be replicated. Until we come back...

One of a kind experience - MUST VIST! We went to the House of Food Porn for our 7yr anniversary and I have to say, this place lives up to its name! Not only was the food absolutely unique and amazing, but Nikki and Chef Frank are two of the most genuine and welcoming people you will ever meet. From the minute we walked in the door, we were treated as VIPs. If you are looking for an above and beyond 5 star dining experience, this is the place for you.

We chose to do the 8 course dinner and I’m so glad that we did. We’ve never experienced ShuShi before and the flavors that Chef Frank packs into a roll are incredible. What makes it even better is that after each course, he lets you guess what was in the ShuShi before telling you. It is a very personal and very interactive experience. Would definitely recommend taking an uber though because their house wine is delicious, lethal, and never ending!

It was a one of a kind experience that we will always remember, and one that we will certainly be returning for. Thank you Nikki and Chef Frank for an unbelievable night!

Birthday dinner We had an amazing experience at The House of Food Porn. Nikki is the hostess and also an owner of the restaurant. She met us at the door after we were welcomed by “Superman” the door man. We were a party of 6 and Nikki greeted us all by name as if she had known us for years! We were celebrating 2 birthdays in our party and Nikki and her chef husband Frankie made sure the night was spectacular. The food was very, very good- uniquely prepared and it engaged all of our senses. The house wine flowed all night and we were surprised how good it was. Frankie and Nikki go out of their way to give you an amazing experience- it was unlike any restaurant we’ve ever been to. It was pricey but you definitely get what you pay for. Thank you Frankie and Nikki for a fabulous night. We’re still talking about the wonderful time we had. You’ve definitely made a memory for us!

Such a special experience! My boyfriend and I booked our reservations to celebrate our 11 year anniversary. When we arrived Nikki and Chef Frank greeted us, welcomed us to their living room and had special seats set for us. Our seats had name tags, flowers and a special sign and gifts/chocolates/flowers for our anniversary! It was so personal and intimate right off the bat. It only got better as Nikki hosted the entire evening with her warm, positive and energetic personality and Chef Frank passionately described each dish and shared his personal story. Nikki kept our drinks filled and connected everyone that was there and Chef Frank totally kept us into the experience with his talent and hanging on each bite wanting more. Each course was better than the last and truly an explosion of flavor. I had the best bite of my entire life with a new role he had made up that evening. I could sit and taste his dishes continuously (although left very full, not sure how much more I could've eaten!). They both make you feel so welcomed, taken care of and make it such a special and unique experience. I can't wait to go back!

This is also the first review I've ever written on a site like this but it was THAT. GOOD.

Don't leave Miami without going here This will be the highlight of your time in Miami and if you live in Miami, show your friends the best time by taking them here. I didn't really know what I was going to get besides a unique experience and that's exactly what I got. You walk in and immediately feel like family and that is the culture and environment they want to cook up! There are approximately 15 seats, so it's a very intimate experience. Refreshing! I took my family for my parents anniversary.
The wine was great and perfectly combined with the food, which reminds me...DO NOT EAT LUNCH before you go here! We want to go back again on a fully empty stomach.
I hate mushrooms....like HATE and chef knew that and gave em to me anyway and they were amazing and I didn't even know I was eating them. Trust me...if I could have tasted them, I would have spit them in his face...seriously..that's how much I hate them. His talent spared his life!
Dinner was perfect in every way and we hated to leave, but like the food, we just rolled on out. We're still talking about it and I can't wait to get back to Miami to show off my new find.
Parking is behind the restaurant and the food is cooked in case you don't like raw.
