The 50 best bars and drinks in Miami

De’Andre was a great server! The vibe was perfect for dancing, we could still have good conversation even with the music, and the food was great! We ordered the baked oysters and the raw oysters with caviar. The fries were also amazing

🎶🍸🔥 Live music — and yes, it gets loud! So if that’s your cup of tea (or in this case, your brand of vodka), you’re in for a good time. There’s not much of a dance floor for those who like to move, but there is a nice outdoor seating area with a relaxed vibe if you want to catch your breath between songs.

Loved this spot! We went for happy hour and had some delicious, well priced drinks! Jay, the bar manager, took excellent care of us and made perfect food recommendations. My New Orleans native husband loved the fried oyster Po Boy, and I was so happy with the burger. It had a great char! The fries were great, and I appreciated the rosemary seasoning. I would highly recommend, and I would also love to return and try the chicken thigh sandwich!!

Always a good time 👏 Casual spot with something always going on! I have been coming here since it opened and it has changed some but over all the quality and reliability is steady If you need a casual easy going meal lace to bring friends it grab a late night bite/cocktail this is the spot Dress code is casual

Cocktails were alright, perfectly reasonable for a vibes bar. Bar food was nice (very good oysters!). Cauliflower nachos were a little underwhelming but still quite delicious in balance. Was quiet on a Tuesday evening

Our experience was bittersweet. The service was not very attentive, and the staff also came across as somewhat aloof for people working behind a bar. When we ordered a cocktail, we were told it was unavailable because the batch was infusing. They said it would be ready in half an hour, but it never was. Before leaving, we asked again because we wanted to have one more drink, but it still wasn’t available. We came back two days later, since we were staying at a nearby hotel, and once again the corn syrup or purée was not yet prepared. In the end, we decided to try other options, and I have to say we really enjoyed them all. I won’t deny that the cocktails we had were truly excellent, but that difference in service is noticeable when comparing the experience to other venues selected as the best bars in the country.

Went for an early dinner. Ate outside where we were seated immediately. The waitress was friendly and accommodating. The only odd interaction was that her shift ended and she said her boss told her that her shift ended and she asked us if we wanted to her to check us out or if the next waiter would. We were not quite finished with our dinner yet so we still needed service. That’s something the restaurant should determine and not the guest. In our opinion. Also, a 20% gratuity was added, which has become customary but she still mentioned that it was added and if we wanted to do more, it was our option. Again, just uncomfortable. Especially seeing she was leaving before we were finished. The food was fine. We ordered the homemade chips, great tasting! Cauliflower nachos. A huge order. Enough for 4-6 people. By the time we had the order much of it was soggy. But definitely had plenty of toppings to the nachos. The pomegranate was a nice touch. Chicken wings - had an order with some buffalo and some bbq. Both were tasty and fried thru. Carrots and celery with ranch and blue cheese dressings. Overall, we are glad that we stopped. Thanks for a nice overall experience.

Mac’s Club Deuce is super cute, it’s one of the oldest clubs in Miami, and the moment you walk in, it feels like you’re stepping back in time. It has such a retro, vintage vibe, and I just loved it. The service was really good, the drinks were tasty, and the overall ambience is just so magical. I really hope they keep it like this for many more years 🙏there aren’t many places in Miami that are this well-kept, so I really appreciate that they’ve preserved it so nicely. They’ve kept the vibe just as it should be, haven’t over‑remodeled or tried to modernize it, and it still feels truly historical. This place is really special, and I hope it stays exactly like this for a long time.

**A South Beach Gem: Mac's Club Deuce** If you're looking for an authentic, no-frills bar in South Beach, *Mac's Club Deuce* is a must-visit! As Miami's oldest bar, it oozes charm and history while staying true to its laid-back, unpretentious vibe—a refreshing break from the glitz and glam of South Beach. Our server, Jason, was absolutely amazing. He was super kind, cool, and made us feel right at home. His warm personality added so much to the experience. Drinks are a steal here with their *buy one, get one free* deal during happy hour (which lasts until 8 PM). The atmosphere is friendly and inviting, making it a perfect spot to meet people who genuinely like people. Whether you’re starting your day early (yes, they open early!) or winding down for the evening, Mac’s Club Deuce is a place you’ll want to keep coming back to. It's the kind of bar that feels like a community—a rare find in South Beach. Don’t miss out on this iconic spot. It’s more than a bar; it’s an experience! --- Let me know if you'd like to tweak it!

We saw this bar on our US Haunted tours and the atmosphere is awesome. Old school feel, great drinks, good prices, cool people. You have to make a stop here if you come to South Beach.

I visited Mac’s Club Deuce because I was intrigued by its reputation as Anthony Bourdain’s favorite spot in Miami. The experience did not disappoint. This is a dive bar in every sense, featuring a snake-shaped bar that feels like a relic from another era – a rare gem you just don’t see anymore. The happy hour is the real deal: buy one drink, and you get another free. Just make sure to bring cash because they don’t accept cards. The atmosphere is incredibly dark, making it easy to lose track of time, and the clientele is a fascinating mix of characters. Everyone sits neatly lined up, watching the bartender, but eager to spark a conversation. Smoking is allowed inside – whether it’s cigarettes or cigars – adding an old-school vibe to the place. The bathroom, however, is an adventure in itself: filthy, with the stench of stale urine that seems like it’s been there for ages. You even need to ask for the code to enter, which somehow adds an exclusive touch to its unapologetically neglected state. The bartender was excellent, professional, and clearly in command of the space. Pets are also welcome, giving the place a surprisingly warm touch. There’s a pool table and a jukebox to round out the experience.

Best bar in SoBe Miami😁 Cash only and Happy Hour from 8am!!!! to 5pm😁🍺 Easy going stuff,good dive bar🍺🍺🍺🥳 Restroom is the same like in the movie "Trainspotting"😂🤷🏼‍♀️

This place feels both like it's not in Miami and 100% pure Miami both at the same time. You have got to visit in order to feel what I am talking about. Had my best game of pool ever at this place.

One of the greatest dive bars in Miami (and US). It’s no frills and sticks to its tradition of cash only and smoking allowed. Full of locals and tourists, it’s a friendly bar with cheap drinks. If you’re looking tonight take a break from the flashy night life of South Beach, I highly recommend coming here. Note: buy a jacket or shirt from there to get stickers and there’s a pool table that’s usually packed with players ready to play.

Absolutely loved the ambiance. I absolutely loved the string lights. It really set the mood. Easily my favorite cocktails in Miami. Very smooth with sweet and delicious flavors. I would absolutely want to come back again.

Went on a Wednesday night for cocktails based on the recommendation from Reddit. The ambiance is definitely the highlight of the place but the cocktails just average. Had the Toro Rosso (couldn't taste the watermelon), the Oaxacan Sling Blade (couldn't taste the pomegranate or pineapple), and Down the Rabbit Hole (which was just OK with the ginger). The drinks weren't liquor or flavor forward which, when people recommend a cocktail bar, I expect the drinks to be (one way or the other). We got the guacamole and asked if they could make it spicy, but they said they couldn't which makes me think it's not freshly made (and chips were a bit salty). Overall an OK place for drinks (wouldn't call it a cocktail bar) with great ambiance.

I went when it was pretty chill and I was solo. I liked it! My drinks were FANTASTIC. Aldo (I think that's the spelling) was my bartender. I sat outside near the pool at a table. Obly wish was that there was a waiter on a Friday night, but I had my seat and no one took it when I went back to the bar. I hear it gets packed after hours which makes sense. People were definitely coming as I was making my exit.

Their mixed drinks were good, specially a blue one. Great atmosphere and music was good. Disappointed they wouldn’t bring out food literally 1 minute after the kitchen closed, and they also don’t have Buchanan

We visited the joint during happy hours. There were no servers, and we had to line up at the bar to order food. The bartender was very friendly and helped us with our orders. Although the food quality was so-so, but the drink was delicious. I ordered a cocktail, and it was super refreshing.

Came here because it was #32 Best Bar in NA 2022… not sure how it made the list. Yeah it’s a cool casual concept for a bar with a yard/pool. But that shouldn’t be enough to make a ranking… The service was non-existent. Two waiters for the huge area is way understaffed - after 15min of waiting I had to go to find a waiter myself. The drinks took 15min to make. The taste of drinks was just ok… had the Reese Old Fashioned and Tropical storm. Would give both 5/10. The atmosphere is cool though for a casual night out. Not a fan of mandatory 20% service surcharge. Despite it being a standard in Miami, unfortunately.

Drinks are amazing. We have been coming here for 7 years and the menus are inventive and changing. The bartenders Lucas, Juan Jose are fantastic and give great recommendations and service.

Mike at Gramps was hands down amazing! We've had a mediocre experience since arriving in Miami and Mike and the whole crew at Gramps has revived our whole trip! The Gramps mule with fresh ginger was next level amazing...best mule I've ever had! The pizza with handmade dough was *chefs kiss* fabulous! Mike was personable and made me want to refer anyone I knew to drop onto Gramps!!!​

Come here often. Staff is always great. Scott goes above and beyond to make the perfect cocktail. Definitely knows hospitality. Always come back for the pizza wings and drinks. Fun fact, found out they make their own mozzarella in house.

Gramps is a fun, no-frills dive bar in Wynwood with a super friendly staff and great vibes. We caught a drag show here and it was the highlight of the night: energetic, classy and welcoming. The drinks are solid, the crowd is chill, and it feels refreshingly unpretentious in a gentrified neighborhood. Definitely worth checking out.

What a fun place to be it's a bar with indoor outdoors but its so much more than that they have everything form art shows, flea markets, EDM style shows, all types of entertainment actually and fun activities like karaoke and more I love going here and the crowd is an everyone type of vibe.

Having a guy with obvious mental health and anger issues handling tickets and screaming and insulting guests and professional photographers invited to shoot a band , definitely matches some of the negative comments i read here, Definitely had beers at Temple instead as im not patronizing a place like Gramps with the treatment i got. I understand some employees might be saddened and upset about this place closing but that doesn’t entitle you to be rude and to mistreat people.

Went to Gramps in Miami last night for the drag show and had the best time. Super laidback and fun vibe, great courtyard, real dive bar energy with lots of locals. Staff was super friendly and made us feel right at home. Sad to hear they’re closing soon, so glad we got to experience it. Definitely go while you still can!

Excellent service. They had two bars ready to go. Not long of a wait for food. It's going to be sad when they close

Bar is a solid 4/5. Service is fast, but you definitely need a reservation as it’s nearly impossible to get a table on weekends. The DJ played a great set, and the place has a prohibition-era vibe, which I’m all for. Prices are reasonable. The cocktails are fine - nothing bad, nothing mind-blowing. Overall, the atmosphere is great and it’s a good choice in Miami if you’re looking to switch up the usual scene.

Dante's HiFi in Wynwood is hands-down one of my absolute favorite spots in Miami—it's like stepping into a warm, immersive dream where the music literally wraps around you. From the moment you walk in, the cozy living-room setup with those plush seats and dim lighting sets the perfect vibe for losing yourself in high-fidelity vinyl spins. The sound system? Chef's kiss—crisp, soul-stirring analog audio that makes every track feel alive, whether it's rare jazz cuts or your favorite indie gems from the curated playlist. The cocktails are next-level too; I always start with their signature negroni variation, balanced and bold, paired with small bites that hit just right without stealing the show. The staff knows their stuff—super knowledgeable about the records and happy to chat tunes without being pushy. It's the ideal low-key night out: intimate, elevated, and unpretentious all at once. If you're into music that demands to be felt, book a reservation and go. You won't regret it—five stars every time! 🎶🍸

Dante's HiFi was a whole vibe. It's a speakeasy-style spot tucked into Wynwood, giving off cool art-deco energy. They played old school vinyl records all night, which really sets the tone. It was a bit crowded when we went, but that just added to the energy. There was a short line...we waited about 15 minutes to get in, no cover. I imagine the wait gets longer the later you go. Inside, the vibe was pretty dope. Great music, good drinks, and a stylish crowd. Definitely a fun, intimate spot if you're into good music and that hidden speakeasy feel in Miami nightlife.

I'll definitely be back. A friend told me about this place before I went on a 2 day solo trip. I made a reservation and I'm glad I did. I got the end bar stool and I'm so glad I did. I've never seen a concept quite like what they do and I definitely enjoyed it. Chatted with some folks also visiting from out of town and enjoyed it. The cocktails are tasty and the music was great. I just wish there was a restroom inside. Also, make sure you have plans to eat before/after because there's no food served here.

From the moment you’re dropped off in front of the graffiti-laced alley, there’s this spark of anticipation—maybe even a bit of nervous excitement because you’re not sure what’s waiting inside. But as soon as you step through the door, it all clicks. The energy in the room is warm, intimate, and electric all at once. The music fills the space in the best possible way—you feel it in your chest, your head starts nodding, your body moves without thinking. The sound is perfect: powerful enough to pull you in, but balanced so well that there’s no fatigue. Just pure joy in the music. The crowd is a perfect mix—locals in t-shirts, high-fashion types, the occasional celebrity—all blending together, all there for the sound. Some are dancing, some are seated and vibing, but everyone is connected to the music. The DJs build their sets right in front of you, and it’s a pleasure to watch real craft in action. The Japanese-inspired cocktails round out the experience, a subtle tribute to the listening rooms that inspired Dante’s. I’ve written plenty of reviews, but this is one of those rare places that truly deserves to be shared. If you care about music, don’t miss it.

This place has so much potential to fill a gap in Miami's night life scene, but they miss so miserably. I love the vinyl listening bar laidback vibe, but it's completely ruined by the giant living room furniture taking up 90%of the floor space. They were desperate to rake in more cash by creating "table sections" which they stupidly placed in the middle of the bar. Apparently even bar seating is reserved - the bouncer made it clear that we were only allowed to stand, but there was barely room for that either! To me the whole point of going to a place like this is to avoid the "section culture" that killed the club scene. Also make sure you go early cuz they had a line wrapped around the corner when we left, that likely waited there all night to get in. Checking this off my bucket list but personally won't be back anytime soon. Would much rather support my friend Kyle's weekly rnb night Love Languages!

Place was such a cool vibe. All vinyl, the DJ was playing jams I feel like my dad, or maybe even grandfather, would have jammed but it was amazing. Was a nice change of pace from the typical bar/club. Lot of people in a small space so it did get hot and I had to step outside a couple times, but the place is awesome.

This winery is such a beautiful spot with the most charming aesthetic—I absolutely love it. The mix of random chairs all around is so funny but also adds to the character and vibe of the place. It has an antique feel that makes the whole experience cozy and unique. The charcuterie boards are great since you get to pick and customize them exactly how you want, which makes it even better. Overall, it’s the perfect spot to come with a group, enjoy each other’s company, and sip on some great wine. P.S the jam is AMAZINGG!

Beautiful place to drink and taste wine. I loved the concept. The place looks like it was a house before. With the lobby being the main jazz place where you can see live music. It is free to entrance you only pay for what you consume. Now after you order in the entrance they will arrange your charcuterie board. The outside is basically like an outside backyard with a bunch of chairs. No music outside which was VERY LAME and thus why I give it a bit lower rating. All and all very delicious wine at very affordable prices. Food is good prices too.

The charcuterie is amazing! Also the server was so nice. I went with 1 other person and we thought “oh this isn’t that much cheese or meat, we should grab more” the staff kindly told us we definitely don’t need so much. Thankful they told us because we couldn’t eat what we did get. But oh it was so good and such a fun concept for a quick bite! There are also some really good and fun beer selections!

As a wine lover I highly recommend this experience. Choose a bottle with some cheese and prosciutto and enjoy the lovely ambiance, live music and good company. They also offer more options if you are looking for something more filling.

This is an iconic Miami staple! A French wine bar with some specialty beer and light dishes as well. Follow them to see their live music schedule as they have live jazz and other genres all week. A must if you're visiting or if you're from Miami and have never been.

Always the most incredible live jazzy type bands! I come in here every chance I get for an ear-gasm. One time I heard a jazz inspired Pink Floyd band here that blew my mind. I absolutely love this lil low lit jazzy vibe, this frequency makes me so happy 😁

Always a great place to enjoy with friends and have drinks, either a vast variety of beers, wines to other types of drinks. Also, a lot of food available. Great atmosphere. Arrive early since it is always packed. Parking available.

We had gone there to enjoy live band. It was supposed to start at 10pm but started post 11. That way we missed the performance. The food was good. Loved the rice and beans combo. Go there if u have a lot of time in ur hand and you want a laid back feeling. The servers take their own time to come so no hurrying up. You have lot of place to sit but surely need booking

We had the best margaritas here – WOW! 🍹 And the quesadillas were amazing – as well as the empanadas! 🥟 Such a cute and traditional Cuban restaurant. The people are truly warm and welcoming, and the music just makes you want to move along with it. 🎶💃 Great music, great staff – definitely worth a visit!

It was a little hard to get a reservation for Saturday, but they were super nice and helped us book it. From that moment, we knew the service was going to be great. The vibe was fun, the drinks were really good, and the food was delicious, all in one spot. The band was awesome and really set a party mood. My favorite part was the patio with the DJ and tons of cocktails. We had such a fun night!

Love this spot!! The live band was everything! Pamela our waitress was awesome!! She made sure we were taken care of. She gave us great service and was super sweet. If you’re ever in the area, check out this place and ask for Pamela!

The best thing about this place is the live music! We visited on a Sunday afternoon for drinks and lunch. Disappointed with the mojito, which tasted artificial. Food portion sizes were good, and arrived relatively quickly. Staff member came over multiple times and it made us feel like they wanted the table sooner than we were ready. We felt the drinks and food were expensive for what we had, total bill was over $300 for 4 people. The atmosphere was great and the Cuban music was definitely worth going for. Maybe better to visit for a drink and to enjoy the musicians than a meal.

Great bar! We were able to walk in and get a seat at the bar. Live music 🎶 was great. Guy at the door was entertaining and taught ppl dance moves frequently. Everyone was in sync and dancing well. Love the vibe

We absolutely loved this place! Such a fun vibe, great live music, the mojito was the best I have ever had! We also had the Cuban sandwich and empanadas!! Amazing!! Elsy G was our server and she was also wonderful!! Can’t wait to come back !!

A nice place with good and cozy vibes. The drinks were average despite the fact that this bar has got good ratings. It is a speakeasy with loud music but good enough that you can still talk. Service is fine and atmosphere is awesome. Music is good too. Overall a good place to hangout with friends.

Amazing speakeasy, the atmosphere and vibes here are top tier! The music, ambience, and drinks are something to die for! Came here more than once on my trip here to Miami! Also Micheal and the other servers are really personable and even remembered us when we came back :) I highlt recommend the Sip-Bite-Sip for first timers here!

The best experience and best bar I visited so far. Exactly what I needed! Not crowded smoke infused bar. The space is limited only to available seatings. The cocktails are superb and reasonably priced! Real craftsmanship! Good choice of chill like music! Hidden gem!

Everything was amazing. My husband and I have been to many speakeasy’s and this one is in the top for sure. Amazing atmosphere and Luis was amazing in his service. Went above and beyond to make sure we had the best cocktails and best time. Anytime we come back to Florida we will make sure to hit this spot.

Honestly I hadn’t heard of it until recently, but after my discovery that Swizzle was ranked #78 on the North Americas 50 Best Bars in 2025 (actual list goes to 100) I had to go with my rum loving boyfriend for my anniversary. We got the Floridian Rum Flight, featuring locally distilled rums from key west to Fort Lauderdale. The 50s music playing ties the vibe together. Great way to start the night!

I am amazed by the experience, this is a bar by proper bar bartenders with intent, purpose and freedom. Drinks are not just drinks; they are an statement knowledge and good taste. The place makes you feel you entered an independent space with is own warm and ageless vibe to it, 100% would recommend, Thank you for the experience!

It was probably one of the best bar experiences I've ever had! Coming from someone with 15 years in the industry, I can say that with confidence! They truly provide a complete vibe here. If you haven't visited while in Miami Beach, please do! Jason and his staff are amazing.

This place is a must on your visit to Miami. They have a nice live show where you can choose (pay-reserve) at the front or near the stage. I choose front from stage. Staff were very nice and attentive. Bar area is a bit overcrowded but understandable since they had a recognition for the #13 Best Bar of North America. However, nice experience, delicious food. Top Notch! 👌🏻

This place lived up to the hype. The food was phenomenal and the drinks were scintillating! I can see why the bar is ranked as one of the top 50 bars in the world. If you're in Miami and wanting an authentic Cuban experience, li e music included, you must stop here!

Highly recommended Cuban restaurant experience. The food here was amazing, ambience superb, the entertainment was one of a kind. The bartenders, what part of the entertainment and they did an amazing show, they're highly skilled and engage the audience in everything they did, the band that played was so enticing, they had everyone know. Jumping up & dancing and wanting to be in the rhythm with the cuban beats! Loved this place, and the food was exceptionally delicio.

My husband celebrated his birthday on Saturday the 14th at Café La Trova. We had a wonderful night dancing and enjoying the great atmosphere. The food, drinks, and live music were all amazing. A big thank you to our waiter for making his birthday truly unforgettable.

Awesome evening at this bar/restaurant! The food is great, the drinks are good, and the music is fun. We had the ropa vieja, arroz con pollo and the ceviche. I LOVED the ropa vieja and the ceviche was good. The atmosphere is awesome and if you are looking for a good Cuban spot, this is the one.

Loved the experience. Really enjoyed the live band and just a fun vibe overall. Tried the Miami Spice and had one of the best ropa vieja I have ever eaten, seasoned and so tender. The empanadas and the croquettes were very tasty. Sat a little away from the stage which makes it easier to speak. It was busy for during the week. I would recommend a reservation.

The energy! I felt like I was back in Havana. Definitely go for the live music. I went on a very busy Friday evening for a drink. I stood for a while which I didn't mind. I managed to get a bar seat after. The buzz! I can see why this is currently number 82 on The World's 50 Best Bars (2025). The mojito was very good. Highly recommend.

It is a beautifully decorated bar. I’m big on a good ambiance when I go out, and this place was so aesthetically pleasing with an upscale vibe to it. I had a great time speaking to the attentive bartender who made me a wonderful drink. They have a pool table, nice lounge sofas, and they serve food as well.

Chris really outdid himself with the drink he made for me and our friends! Not only did it taste amazing, but you could tell he put real effort and creativity into mixing it. The flavor was smooth, refreshing, and perfectly balanced — everyone kept saying how good it was. It set the vibe for the night and made the whole experience even better. If you ever get a chance to try one of Chris’s drinks, don’t miss it!

The experience was so good the bartenders were great!! I had never been before, but the bartenders were great with suggestions and I was very happy! They have happy hour drink special from 5-6, as low as $8? A great deal. It goes up a dollar every hour until 8pm. I highly recommend the cruise control for happy hour, you can't beat half price for the quality of drinks. So smooth! My favorite was the blurred lines drink by far far get it!! Thank me later 😀 Sophia, Chris, and Kenny were amazing with their recommendations, service, and attention to detail. You need to check them out!

Would never guess how cute this place is by looking at it from the outside. When you walk in you’re transported into a cool retro living room with a lot of little areas to lounge and a long bar. I came with a group of friends and we posted up at the bar. I was first to arrive and by myself and the girl who sat next to me told right away that she loved this bar and it was her fave. So already off to a great start before I even ordered anything. The bartender that greeted me was really nice and went ahead and let me know they were on happy hour and showed me the menu of cocktails. They had a good selection too on the HH menu. She also showed me the special themed menu they had for 4th of July which included an open bar from 6-8, in honor of 4th of July. The names of the cocktails are all very Miami and very funny. I had the Merge or Die which was like drinking summer in a glass. I really liked it. Our next bartender Robert was awesome and did a great job mixing the open bar drinks for us, if you’re looking for great service he’s the guy for sure. While we were there the DJ started up and he had great mix of 90s RNB, reggaeton, and classic bops. All in all, this is a great choice to enjoy some quality cocktails and a good vibe.

Cocktails and vibes. Had so much fun here! Went on a Friday night the DJ was on fire the cocktails were delicious andddd the atmosphere was electrifying.

Fantastic cocktail bar with a speakeasy feel. Nestled in between Wynwood and the design district this makes for a great stop for after dinner drinks. Live DJ is a nice touch.

A swanky bar with great vibes and service! We loved our happy hour rush here! The drinks were delicious💖

I’ve been a loyal customer at The Corner for years, but I won’t stay silent anymore. The doorman with dreads, who falsely claims to be the manager, is out of control. He steals money at the door, and creates a hostile, unsafe environment. Most recently, I witnessed him in a violent altercation with a homeless person right outside — screaming, threatening, and nearly fighting in front of paying guests. It was terrifying. This is a serious liability. Someone is going to get hurt, and it’s clear that management is either unaware or unwilling to do anything about it. If you care about your safety, your money, and being treated with respect stay far away from The Corner until this situation is handled. What used to be a local gem is now a legal nightmare waiting to happen. You’ve been warned.

Best dive bar in Miami. Best old fashioned and best grilled cheese! Bartender was super sweet. Super cool aesthetic

First time at The Corner visiting from NY and absolutely loved the vibe. Super laid-back spot with great cocktails. Everyone was so friendly – bartenders and security were all awesome. Definitely coming back next time I’m in Miami.

The Corner is my go-to neighborhood bar right in Downtown, it’s got that classic charm you don’t find much in here anymore. The drinks are solid, prices are fair, and the bartenders really know what they’re doing. In a city that’s always changing, The Corner stands strong as one of the few spots that truly lasts.

We found this little place while awaiting an artist show at E11ven. Had some outside seating, but we decided to go inside. It reminded me of an old school New Orleans bar type of feel. It seemed like a place where you could have a conversation over some great drinks. Thankfully, I was right. We ordered a few of their specialty drinks and really enjoyed them. The bar tender was very accommodating and shook the heck out of our drinks. I was quite impressed at his skills as I watched him make our drinks. Prices were agreeable as a Miami bar. Place was clean and we felt safe. I really enjoyed the ambiance. The bathroom was covered in graffiti and was pretty cool. Don't think twice about visiting this place. It was a great spot for some drinks in a dimly lit bar for a romantic date.

My friend and I stumbled upon this Gastro pub after leaving E11EVEN. It’s a relatively small space, with a very cozy, relaxed vibe to it. There’s limited seating at the bar, but there are also a number of small tables and an additional high top seating area. I tried to be adventurous and ordered their cocktail dubbed “Trinity” (Wathens Bourbon, Peach Liquor, Lemon, Basil), but it proved to be VERY peachy and too sweet for my taste…so alas I ended up with my usual Maker’s Old Fashioned. They have the dark candied cherries which are my favorite garnish of an OF. My friend ordered a Delerium Belgian Ale which was deliciously refreshing and everything wonderful you’d expect from a Belgian Ale. The bartender (John, I believe) was very friendly and understanding when I’d asked to swap my drink. Website mentions they have Jazz there. I’ll definitely be back, hopefully they’ll have live music next time!

Wonderfully crafted cocktails. Antonio is the *best* and highly recommend this place to anyone in the area looking for a great place to grab a drink any night of the week. ❤️

Amazing cocktails. Amazing service. Amazing hospitality. The server would tell us the story behind every drink which made it so much fun. So much thought care and creativity went into this menu. Definitely a fun spot and a must try for any cocktail lover. Totally appreciate the art and thought behind this place. Especially shoutout to Marco he was awesome!

Joe was a very kind bartender! The atmosphere is cool and dim. Ian was also very welcoming as well as the others. I tried the Japan drink and it was so refreshing and delicious. The corndog was so yummy, too! Will definitely be coming back to try more cocktails. The drink was $18, but very much worth it! Thanks for the hospitality💙

Best cocktail I had in Miami! During my quick visit to Miami I checked out quite few cocktail bars searching for something special and I found it in Kaiju! Monster/Pokémon themed cocktail list is super creative. The overall vibe is hip and cool. The staff is friendly and clearly loves what they are doing. I opted for a cocktail called Maskinganna. In essence it was clarified espresso martini and man what a drink it was. I've had my fair share of espresso martinis in my life but the one in Kaiju was exceptional. I would go back just to have it again. So if you are into elegantly crafted cocktails Kaiju is the place. Cool vibes!

Kaiju is an amazing bar experience in Miami. From the moment you step inside, you're transported. The entire menu is themed like Pokémon cards, with each drink's "special powers" described, which is such a unique touch. The bartenders take their time to create the drinks and they explain them to you. And the decor. There are Godzilla figures and references everywhere. It truly feels like you've stepped into a Japanese bar. I highly, highly recommend checking out Kaiju. It's not just a bar; it's an experience. Definitely a must-visit in Miami.

Bar Kaiju at The Citadel in Little River is a brilliant cocktail hideaway—its glowing red, anime-monster–themed décor and trading-card menu make each drink feel like a playful work of art. From inventive monsters like Mechagodzilla (a Japanese-whiskey highball with cherry-blossom vermouth) to Rodan’s spicy margarita with a lollipop finisher, the cocktails are as imaginative as they are expertly executed. Tucked above the food hall, the intimate speakeasy vibe is amplified by attentive, storytelling bartenders and a spot that’s earned spots on Bon Appétit’s best-new-bars list and multiple Spirited Awards nominations. A wildly creative must-visit for anyone craving originality and artisanal mixology in Miami

Wow. This is perhaps the best bar I’ve ever been to. I’m a cocktail bar aficionado — drinking more cocktails in one sitting than you could believe — but the service attention to detail and overall experience was amazing. Ditch Miami Beach and come to Kaiju. Truly a singular experience if you love cocktails and respect what goes into service.

When I use to live in Miami I would pass by the bar almost every weekend. This was my first time back after having a baby. It’s my favorite hang out spot and the drinks are A++. They also permanently added food recently in collaboration with Mattari Suru. The corn dog cheese pull was awesome and the sliders were small but packed full of flavor. I highly recommend the sliders! As far as the drink I got I don’t remember the name mainly because I always ask what to drink based on my preference rather then looking through the menu and the bartenders helped me choose the cucumber drink. Super refreshing, this place is not intimidating at all, the bartenders are hella welcoming and attentive. No other place like it!

We went on happy hour and ordered two Paloma’s. They were frozen and incredible with a generous amount of tequila. Then for the appetizers we ordered the loaded fries with pulled pork and it was really really good. As for the spicy chicken sandwich it was alright. It wasn’t spicy at all and didn’t have much to it but the side of fries were really good and I think that they cut their own potatoes so that’s amazing. Service was really good and the atmosphere was nice with people coming in for happy hour and just relaxing. Might be coming back when in the area

So my wife and I were looking for a place that had vegetarian food late night (12am) and food a spot called over under.. at that point it had club music, but we sat outside and got a vegetarian burger and truffle fries, with a Caesar salad. Food was great, service was great and people were. We walked from CitizenM across from the heat arena. Keep in mind it is a college esk area, so the walk was mostly lit with some spots not so much. We took our 6 wk old for a stroll there. Very inclusive! I would recommend for sure. Maybe not the 6 wk old 🤣, but she love loud music outdoors, so it worked for us! Do not expect fancy.

The food is very promising. The burger is decent and good fries. It’s sloppy and messy, dripping wet sauce, but tastes good. The crab hush puppies - ate they supposed to be that dense instead of gooey? Atmosphere is lively and soon filled up after 5pm, but the music that night (heavy mental) was not for me and a tad too loud. Def will come back to try the katfish po boi, gator bites and the blood orange pie….

Recently went to celebrate my birthday with a big group. Ashley the manager was responsive while planning and extremely accommodating. Everyone had an amazing time. The food was delicious and drinks were even better. Not to mention the service was fantastic. This stands as one of my favorite burger spots and it was very special to celebrate with friends that had never tried the famous burger! Not to mention they held the cake for us while everyone was eating and brought out plates and silverware for everyone. Candles and a birthday shot for the birthday girl and a friend that was also sharing the same birthday. 10/10. Thank you for making my day extra special!!

This place is really cool. I’m local and just stumbled across it looking for a place open late for dinner. Their kitchen is open until midnight. The food is surprisingly good and fresh. Everything seems homemade and they have some of the best French fries I’ve ever had. I got the veggie burger with a lettuce wrap (vegan option). The vibe is also cool with a lot of character. A mix of locals and tourists alike. Service was okay despite Saturday night crowds.

The vibe here is great — cool atmosphere and an even better playlist. That said, I would never eat here again. I was served frozen oysters that were extremely fishy, and I just can’t get over how disappointing that was. Honestly, I’m just hoping I don’t feel sick tomorrow. Such a letdown given the setting.

Came here after going to hard rock stadium and watching the Dolphins embarrass themselves on Thursday night football against the Ravens. Was not in a good mood, but after eating the burger and Cesar salad, and enjoying the vibe here, I went home feeling much better. Highly recommend it!

YALL. WHAT?! The new Mama Tried menu is ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL. The drinks are up to their original standard, but they're modern and absolutely delicious. I would absolutely recommend checking out the new menu, hang out for the vibes & and definitely get a cocktail from Dominique! She's an amazing bartender and took awesome care of us.

Had Happy our drinks. Major vibes, music was lively and bartender was fine fine…. The drinks did the what it had to do (IYKYK).

Dominic was awesome! She always makes the best drinks and we’ve been to a lot of cocktail bars all over Miami!! Always a great vibe!!!

Love the vibes in here and djs! I stumbled upon this after a concert and it was a fun time. I came here on a solo trip and their espresso martini frozen drink was delicious. I only had 1 drink but their drink list looked delicious and fun! They have 1 pool table as well.

Cute spot! Bartenders and door staff are sweet, and the aesthetic inside is really cool. Prices are good, would go back!

My go-to spot in Miami!! This is THE SPOT for pre/post AND game. Every time I come here I have a good time with friends, the DJs are always on point and Matt is the absolute best!!! This has become my non-negotiable for a night out in Miami and I will keep coming back like I have been. Definitely a must, especially if you have a big friend group that likes to have a good time. The ambience is 10/10 and coming from a bartender, the drinks are always on point. A MUST if youre in Miami!!!🩷‼️

We had a fun time at Mama Tried in Downtown Miami trying their new cocktails. The bar itself gives instant chill vibes as you’re surrounded by nostalgic décor and old school beats. The main attraction of course is their many creative drinks! They were all refreshing, each with unique flavors and combinations; some that you wouldn’t expect to work! Overall, we tried 6 cocktails. My personal favorite was the Porn Star Martini! Delicious! The locals already know about this spot, but next time you’re in Downtown Miami, make sure to stop by and try one of their new tasty cocktails!

IMPORTANT TO READ If you are celebrating your birthday at this restaurant, bringing your own cake might not be the best option. I made a reservation for my birthday based on a friend’s recommendation. The service, environment, and food were all excellent very enjoyable experience overall. However, here is the issue: I brought my own cake (pavlova) to celebrate my birthday. The staff said they could store it and charge $5 per piece cut. I agreed, as it seemed fair. When the server brought the cake pieces for our party of 5, we only received about a quarter of the cake total, and then the cake was returned to us with half of the cake missing. We clearly did not eat that much. It feels like the extra portion was taken without our knowledge, which was very disappointing after such a positive dining experience. This kind of handling feels unprofessional and unethical. I am sharing this review to make others aware and hope the management addresses this issue, as it may not be something they are aware of. Images attached: 1. Whole new cake 2. Small pieces served to each person 3. Cake returned — half missing Draw your own conclusions.

Really fun place. Limited menu, but worth it! Drinks menu is very creative. We started with an orange flavored margherita made with seltzer water. Very tasty. We then had a fennel salad which was spectacular! The other starter was some sort of pasta filled with ricotta and some very tasty sauce. Then the main course was a spicy pepperoni pizza. Desert was a pistachio gelato. Delicious!!! Overall, we really enjoyed it. Had a fun crowd and the service was very attentive. We will definitely be back. Only word of caution, this is right across from Bayfront Park and the Kaseya Center. There was a concert or something going on, making traffic super congested.

Lived up to my expectations, period. Really cool concept and a must try. The pizza dough is to die for, I could eat it everyday. ViceVersa will definitely be in the rotation whenever I visit Miami.

ViceVersa in downtown Miami absolutely lives up to the hype—and its spot on the Michelin list as one of the best bars in the U.S. is well deserved. I’ve been to bars all over the world, and this one stands out for its originality. Inspired by Futurism, the 1930s art movement, they bring the concept to life through their menu, cocktails, and design. The bartenders are top-notch—friendly, skilled, and fast—and the drinks are seriously next level. I had a Negroni (they offer a few takes on it), and it was perfection. The food is also incredible, with real Italian soul. The vibe? Laid-back and stylish, like a hidden gem in Manhattan—but right here in Miami. Music, retro atmosphere, and true creative identity make it a spot I’ll keep coming back to.

September ‘25 This spot was on my list to go, but I wasn’t planning to go on this trip. My server at L’Atelier told me the burgers here are top 5 so I’m like alright guess I’ll go. They only serve burgers on Monday, and they won’t have their happy hour specials on this day. Italian Vice ($16): def refreshing. I’m not a huge fan of vodka sodas but this was definitely good. I would get it again. It wasn’t overly carbonated tasting. Burger ($20): it was good but def messy. My entire lower bun basically disintegrated due to the liquid lol…. Brucio in Bocca ($17): their version of a spicy marg; I asked the bartender to pick this drink for me and I liked it. It went well with the food I got. I normally would not have picked it myself. Didn’t give me spicy marg vibes tbh. Wagyu Carpaccio ($25): I saw all the reviews saying this was a must get. Maybe I got a dud but I felt like the bread didn’t go well with the meat. Bread was kinda stale tasting and hard. The meat was also not flavorful, kinda bland, but at the same time super salty. I would def not get this again. Affogato Martini ($18): I love trying desserty drinks so I HAD to get this even tho I don’t really like espresso. There’s a scoop of pistachio gelato and there’s supposed to be notes of toasted coconut as well. Def tasted bitter like espresso before mixing the gelato in. After mixing, it tasted like straight up soy milk to me. Wouldn’t get again lol

We order pistacho pizza and wayu carpaccio both were delicius. We will come back to try the burguer, only available on Mondays. The place is small but has Good vibes. Reservation is highly recommended

ViceVersa is recommended by the MICHELIN Guide and mentioned in 50 Best as one of the best bars in North America.  I had to go whilst in Miami. A very small venue located in the lobby of The Elser Hotel Miami.  I loved the dark wood and rich green walls enhanced with pops of colour from framed art which gave it a sultry moodiness.  The bar was buzzing when I went. You can either book a table in advance online if you plan on eating or walk-in like I did.  Bar counter seating is usually available for walk-ins and offers the full menu. I waited around twenty minutes before I got a seat. The bartender was lovely. I would definitely recommend trying one of the many cocktails. There is a lot of choice.  If you are unsure what to have, let the bartender know your preferences like I did. She suggested the perfect cocktail for me.  I had the 'PARTHENOPE' which was very refreshing with a slight hint of spice.  I didn't want something with too much alcohol.  I had to have a pizza which is highly recommended on the MICHELIN Guide and by others as one of the best in Miami.  I went with the margherita.  It was really good, a crispy, thin Neapolitan-style pizza.  I couldn't finish it and took the rest to go.  Nice cocktail, good pizza, loved the atmosphere and good service.  My small negative was that the bar seating is quite tightly packed and everyone was ordering food and drinks, it was a bit of a struggle finding room for plates and glasses. Food comes out quickly once you order.  Would recommend for sure.

The atmosphere is fantastic and the food is very good, but the way they treat customers, with distrust, searching before you enter the restaurant and holding credit cards, is regrettable. I was well attended to by the waitress who served our table, but overall I thought the treatment given to customers was poor. Too expensive to be treated like a criminal. That's why I wouldn't go back. A place to go once just to get to know it.

Some of the best views in Miami. Amazing skyline. Sushi style menu - we tried spring rolls and edamame both came quickly and were nice. The beauty of this bar along with the views is how it’s broken up into sections so with a group you could feel pretty private! Music was good and felt like a place that really picks up later on. For me we liked the mid afternoon lull so we could appreciate the view. Drinks were some of the best in Miami. Garnishes were beautiful and the bar was well set up to make sure if this. The garnishes were so beautifully set out I had to take a photo ;-)

This was a great place for a happy hour cocktail and some good bites. The cocktails were really good and they also had some cocktail offerings. The bites were well fought out and well prepared and delicious. It was a little on the pricey side, but the ambience, the views, the good service Were all appreciated.

Maya was absolutely incredible. She was so knowledgeable about the drink menu as well as giving solid recommendations for food. We loved her. The vibe is so amazing. Earthy and club like vibes make for a great stop for food before a night out. Bang bang shrimp, brussel sprouts, tator tots and sushi. 💚

Maya was absolutely phenomenal!! Great service, very attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable:) highly recommend this place and getting her as your server! She goes above and beyond. The atmosphere and music was a vibe too. Tater tots were fire.

Stunning and stylish rooftop bar located in EAST Miami. I had a cocktail from the spritz collection which was very good. I wanted a drink with a low alcohol content and the bartender suggested I go for one of the options here. Very nice, refreshing and light. I had some wok tossed edamame to nibble on. Divine. Stunning venue with lovely views of the skyline. Romantic. Good music. A majority of the venue is open so probably not a good option if it is raining. Only the bar area is covered. Would recommend otherwise.

I absolutely love this place. Definitely one of my favorite rooftop bars in Miami. Stunning panoramic views of the city and bay. The multi-tiered layout provides an enchanting atmosphere. Their signature cocktails are expertly crafted, offering a delightful complement to the vibrant ambiance and breathtaking sunsets. Note: it’s really packed during sunset/night time so it is best to reserve or come in earlier to grab a seat with a view.

Sean at Black Bird Ordinary is truly one of a kind! He’s not just a bartender—he’s a mixologist with his own signature style. From his incredible spicy mix to creative, perfectly balanced drinks, every sip was a hit. The vibe he created with great music, friendly conversation, and an all-around welcoming energy made my first Miami experience/trip unforgettable. I’ll definitely be back for more of Sean’s extraordinary drinks and great atmosphere!

Best bar/club in Brickell , been coming religiously for a while now. The scene is amazing,it has two sections , in the front its like a night bar where the Bartender are amazing, my boy Tony knows exactly what I like to order and bring it up before me even saying Anything. And the back is more of an open space club with good light and music. Definitely one of the best clubs in Miami and surrounding area.

Espi was freaking amazing!!!!! Would be coming back for his drink and for how friendly he was! Thank you so much! Made my time in Miami so much fun

This bar/lounge is a "hole in the wall". I had a good time. The atmosphere is too dark though. The 4 stars is for the fact they charge a service charge along with the price of the drinks. The bar tinder was actually pretty nice, though.

Horrid experience with a security personnel. An unidentified security guard violently yanked me out of my chair and threw me out into the sidewalk. He didn’t self identify when my sister was yelling to let me go since I thought I being kidnapped. This did take place in February 2023. For full transparency this low review is to signal the management on how their personal should still be trained better. In addition, to higher better security personnel. As to what caused the security to yank me out of my chair was simply me putting my head down. I recognize could be proper reason to escort me out. However, I wasn’t even put on notice or advised to cease my activity. I was violently yanked out of my chair. This obviously alarmed me which is why I resisted (again without knowing this was security personnel, he didn’t have uniform nor identity himself). TL;DR This location has traumatized me for outgoing activities. And hope this review can spark change in the establishment.

They don’t like people in their 30s and they turn you around at the front by telling you “you skipped the line”.. when asked why to the bouncer, he said “because I said so” .. but everyone that’s 24 can get in. Which is funny because 30 year olds have more money to spend than 24 year olds . Funny how this place used to be fun to come out to.

I had such a fun time visiting! They have a great atmosphere, there are also some fun drinks too. I also loved how they had a sit down section to just to chat with your friends and play board games. They also had a club side too so you could really pick your own energy at that time. The dark esthetic and plants everywhere were totally my vibe. If you’re looking for a chill place to drink a few and relax with your friends or dance with your partner then this is the place for you!

Sunny’s delivers on every level. The food is outstanding, but what truly sets this place apart is the service. We’ve sat outside on both visits, and despite the South Florida heat, the setup of fans and umbrellas makes it comfortable and enjoyable. The cocktails are spectacularly crafted, and the Parker rolls are a must-order. Their Caesar salad is hands-down our favorite anywhere, and the Blue Crab & Corn Agnolotti is absolutely mouthwatering: rich, satisfying, and my favorite dish on the menu. The steaks are consistently cooked to perfection, making every visit memorable.

Sunny’s Steakhouse has quickly become one of my favorite dining spots in Miami, and after visiting five times this year, I can confidently say that consistency is their greatest strength. The ambiance strikes the perfect balance between stylish and welcoming. Whether dining with friends or on a date, the space feels both elegant and comfortable, setting the tone for a memorable evening. The service is equally impressive—attentive without being intrusive, knowledgeable about the menu, and always making you feel well taken care of. But it’s really the food that keeps me coming back. Each visit, the flavors, presentation, and execution have been flawless. My go-to lineup says it all: the silky Chicken Liver Mousse, delicate Wagyu Carpaccio, crisp and fresh Caesar Salad, and warm Parker House Rolls are the perfect start. For mains, the Hanger Steak with Fries and Salsa Potato Butter is outstanding, while the Cavatelli with Duck and Crab and Corn Agnolotti showcase creativity and depth. I always finish with the Ice Cream Sandwich, a playful yet indulgent ending to a perfect meal. With every visit, I’ve experienced the same high standards—proof that Sunny’s isn’t just about one great night out, but about delivering excellence every single time. Highly recommend.

Service is excellent, food is great and ambiance is very pleasant. The place is huge! Most of the tables are outside but there is a way to get cover in case of rain in some of it. Blue Crab pasta was my favorite item, definitely recommend. It is has some sweet flavor to it, very unique. Steak was great. Octopus appetizer was good but a bit too much mixed up there. Ceasar salad is good, very rich in cheese. Both side dishes were unfortunately a bit too oily but still good. Our waitress was supper friendly and gave excellent suggestions, including the cheesecake.

The atmosphere is where this place really shines — warm, welcoming, and full of character from the bartenders to the servers. The food was nothing short of spectacular! The hanger steak was cooked perfectly and packed with flavor, and the potato butter is an absolute must-try. The crab pasta was another standout — sweet, rich, and filled with generous chunks of crab. They brought us a complimentary Caesar salad, which was amazing, though the Parker House rolls really should be complimentary too. Portions might look modest at first, but everything is incredibly satisfying. Dessert was just as impressive, the perfect finish to an outstanding meal. We’ll definitely be coming back!

As a south Florida local one thing I have started to despise about dining in this city is the pretentiousness of high end restaurants that treat you as if they are doing you a favor by allowing you to spend your hard earned money dining with them. What a wonderful change we experienced dining at Sunny’s. We arrived on time for our reservation and our table was not ready but we were escorted to the outside patio bar where the bar tenders were friendly and easy to talk to. By the time our drinks were made the hostess was back to escort us to our table. We were greeted by our server Michelle and she was incredible! What a gem. We laughed and were guided effortlessly through the menu. Food was 10/10, service 10/10 atmosphere 10/10. Every person we encountered was a pleasure. We booked our next date night before even finishing our meal. If I could give any constructive criticism I would say the parking situation could use some work. Thanks for an incredible experience. See you guys again soon.

Incredible food, atmosphere, setting. This is a special place great for special occasions. Highly recommend doing family style. Some highlights were the 8 foot rum punch, the crab pasta, the wagyu porterhouse, the wedge salad, the Parker house rolls, the shrimp cocktail, and the carpaccio.

This restaurant is out of the way of the typical trendy Miami neighborhoods, but it's definitely worth the trip! It's partially outdoors with amazing sitting areas and outdoor bar, but it also offers plenty of indoor seating and bar areas in different dining rooms as well. The bartenders are awesome mixologists, and everyone on the staff is very nice. The menu is very creative and the food is excellent! Everything we ordered (octopus carpaccio, ceviche, Caesar salad, scallop crudo, ribeye steak) was perfectly cooked, flavorful, and wonderfully different from every other steakhouse. Our server Alyssa was very helpful with menu suggestions and had a fun and relaxed personality. The vibe is very casual and relaxed with great music. An all around awesome experience. I suggest you take a ride share as parking is the only thing that may be an issue.

If you’re looking for the best pizza of your life, Losy Boy is the place to go. From the very first bite, you can taste the quality ingredients and the passion they put into every pizza. The pepperoni pizza is simply outstanding—a perfect balance of crispy crust, perfectly melted cheese, and pepperoni with just the right amount of flavor and crunch. The service is excellent, the staff is friendly, and they make you feel right at home. Plus, the atmosphere is cozy, making it a great spot to enjoy with friends or for a relaxed dinner. I’ll definitely be coming back for more! If you love pizza, this place is a must-visit in Miami. Highly recommended!

Nice fixture and neighborhood bar downtown that has survived all the building and street closures. Happy to see vegetarian and vegan options which were also very tasty. Nice selection of cocktails and place to hang out with colleagues and or friends. Cool atmosphere and dog friendly!!

In port for the day, working on a cruise ship, and needed to find a place to have some food and drinks with a proper American feel (and find a place that was open at 1pm on a Monday). This exceeded my expectations! Great vibe, great music, delicious wings and pizza. Highly recommend to all who are in the area. Thanks to Joseph for the food and drinks!

Closest thing to a dive bar I could find in downtown Miami as an out-of-towner. Some of the best bathroom graffiti I have observed in my extensive bar-going experience. Bartenders were attentive and friendly. Drinks were strong enough and reasonably priced, for Miami standards. A little unnecessarily loud with the DJ for my taste, but it was Saturday night in Miami. 🤷🏻‍♂️ All in all, would get drunk here again. 😬👍👍

My husband & I visited Lost Boy during our honeymoon. Very cool atmosphere, comfortable bar seating and entertaining decor. The bartender was great, gave good recommendations on drinks as well as other local spots to visit during our stay! Pricing is a little high from what we’re used to, but we’re in Miami so we expected it. Didn’t get the chance to try the food as we visited there pretty late. Pool table and dart board available for those classic dive bar activities.

Went to have a beer during one of the World Cup matches and had great experience. The ambiance is great, nice deco, comfy spaces, and a very large bar with a good vibe. Prices are decent, and they have some mice appetizers to enjoy with beer. Great choices of beer and variety of cocktails Service was fast and on point, having into account that the place was packed. This is definitely a great option if you are in the downtown area, either for happy hour or to have some drinks any time of the day. Will be back

I did not rate food, dont know if there is food. Great vibe, bartender super friendly. I had a private barrel blantons old fashion that was very fine. Bartender is very engaging, challenging your palette to experience new horizons by feeding ya what you normally dont like, and it turns out well. Come on over and enjoy the night.

The views and atmosphere here are incredible definitely a great spot to visit with friends. That said the service was disappointing. We were ignored by the servers, and I ended up placing my order at the bar. The food itself is decent, but for the price, you can find better options elsewhere. Given that this place was rated in the top 25 restaurants in Miami by Infatuation, the expectations were higher.

I just went to Gramps for the first time since they opened the second location and WOW! Our waiter Lazer was fantastic, so knowledgeable and so sweet! We went inside after our dinner to get some AC and I met another GEM, the bartender Zack! He made me feel like we had known each other for years, what an amazing experience! He made me the best mule I’ve ever had in my life! I cannot wait to go back next weekend! Found my new spot! 100000% recommend gramps!

The food was delicious and fresh, the atmosphere was fun and welcoming, and the service stood out the server was really nice and attentive. Everything came out quickly, and the whole experience felt effortless. Perfect spot to enjoy good drinks and bites. Highly recommend!

We’ve been a couple of times to Gramps Getaway for their happy hour (mon-fri, 4-7) and loved it. The view is great, food is yummy, and drinks are good. Would definitely recommend coming by to watch the sunset. The vibe is super fun and the staff is (usually) very friendly!!

First time here, and wow! Great view, great food, and service was top notch. Had the crispy chicken sandwich, and it was 🔥🔥. My bartenders Bianca (Bee), and Tino were amazing. Will definitly come again. I want to try the ribs

Been there not long after opening and what a pleasure it was to go back ! They have now a full kitchen added to the oyster bar. The lobster roll was to die for and the watermelon salad was very refreshing. We will be back !

I came for the burger after hearing great things about it, and it definitely lives up to the hype—it was delicious! We sat at the bar and got excellent service. The place has great views, great food, and a really nice atmosphere.

Didn’t eat any food, but I can confidently declare that the apricot & strawberry junglebird is the best variation of that cocktail I’ve ever had. The bartender, Zach, was super nice. Crazy good happy hour too; almost the entire drink menu is half off!

Recommended place from reddit. We were pleasantly surprised. Played pool, darts, got beer, listened to jukebox music. I liked this place. Cool toilet :D I give it 4,9 Miami Vice intros out of 5.

Place is amazing, love the environment, EZ was a great host/bartender recommended great drinks! I highly recommend this place!!!

Thanks Zack and to the other bartenders. Very attentive service. Cute space, Low-key chill vibe when I went during happy hour. They have a jukebox, and darts. I didn't try the food.

This is a small, cozy bar in Miami Beach with a chill and relaxed vibe. The space is definitely limited, so don’t expect anything fancy or spacious, but it has its charm. The food really surprised me—it was flavorful and clearly made with care. Great spot for a casual drink, especially if you’re not looking for a loud party scene. It’s the kind of place where you can unwind with a good cocktail, enjoy a few bites, and have a quiet conversation. Simple, unpretentious, and a nice little find.

It was a great find! Great food, great drinks, great service, great vibes. Highlight recommend the tuna poke nachos and steak. Also the spicy margs.

The bar we all knew south beach needed! Excellent service, fun atmosphere… and the best coconut shrimp you will ever have in your life. Also, I should mention more than 2 martinis will ABSOLUTELY mean no driving. Hard to find a bar that will actually help you achieve the goal of getting drunk by serving you truly stiff drinks — 10/10 will be visiting again.

We wrapped up our spa day with a visit to MO Bar & Lounge — and it was a beautiful way to end the experience. The ambiance is elegant and relaxed, with stunning views that truly elevate the atmosphere. The food was delicious, the drinks were well-crafted, and the overall vibe was perfect for unwinding. It’s a great spot to enjoy a bite and take in the scenery. The only downside was the cleanliness — for a hotel of this caliber, I expected the space to be a bit more polished. Still, the overall experience was enjoyable, and I’d definitely come back for the view and the great cocktails.

Great service, beautiful views and very good food. Came here for lunch twice, got bento box and tuna salad, both were really really good. And I hear if you're lucky you can see the dolphins in the bay.

Mo Bar is located within the Madrian Oriental and is a special place to have a drink at night or breakfast in the morning. Any time we have ever been there during our stay in Miami the service has been outstanding and the food/atmosphere has been great. I couldn't recommend this place highly enough for a sophisticated night out or a nice quiet breakfast in the morning.

Excellent bar inside the mandarin oriental hotel in the lobby. Excellent music, Renoir's wonderful music group. you can have a very pleasant time and eat well

You're on your very own island.... My husband surprised me with a weekend getaway here!!! This place is 5 stars everything!! The views were amazing. The pool was as if you were in the ocean itself. Room service and every single person that worked there, made you feel welcomed and special!!! We will definitely be booking again.

Adreina and Alex are the greatest bartenders. Tamir is the new beverage director and makes everyone feel at home. I had some creep hit on me and the staff was so nice afterwards. I will always come back. Great happy hour drinks and live music on Fri and Sat nights. Food is top notch. Wings and burger are the best

Very nice and cute spot. Classy on the inside with a great view of downtown Miami. Music was relaxed and it was quiet (mind you we were here at 3pm) Drinks are ok and service was so so. Some of us wanted coffee which was not on the menu.

I wish I could give this 10 stars. One of the best bars I’ve been to anywhere! The dj had the best vibes, music was great and overall atmosphere and drinks were excellent. Get there early if you want a seat as it gets busy! Kudos to the staff for creating such a cool and memorable space. I will be back on my next trip to Miami!

I live visiting this bar downtown when I have friends in town! Great music, good vibes and the cocktails are fabulous! It can get busy later in the evening and on the weekends but it’s worth a visit!

Spot has all the vibes and amazing sound! It was a little hard to find, the outside is all wood panels. Ordered a dirty martini and the pour was soo heavy!! It’s a little small but has space to dance and overall a fun night out w friends

Made a reservation at 10 pm on a Thursday 2 weeks in advance for my boyfriend’s birthday. Took the brightline from West Palm Beach. Got there at 10:05 pm and everything was fine until a corporate party of 35 people arrived 5 minutes later, belligerent drunk, screaming and knocking over our table of drinks. They 100% did not have the space for that amount of people and kept the door open because more people were arriving on top of the 35 others. Will not be going there again and wasting $50 on 2 drinks for both of them to be spilled. We spent 15 minutes max here and it was a waste.

Fun bar, great music with a cool ambience. Oh and drinks were delicious!

The hostess seated us took our drink orders and credit card. After a few minutes she came back and told us we couldn’t sit there because there was a reservation (which has not even arrived) and we can only sit at the bar; the bar had no seats. Was the expectation for us to stand with our drinks while seats were open?! When we first came in there were seats at the bar: she easily could’ve from the start sat us at the bar. Such an unwelcoming experience; I guess they don’t like money here.

Great spot for music lovers. The sound system is top-tier, cocktails are excellent and the staff is friendly and on point. Love the speakeasy vibes, chill, intimate, and perfectly curated. Highly recommend.

This place is hidden but once we found it, it was a good lil vibe! The service was top notch, everyone was very nice and attentive. The drinks were great - we tried the happy hour drinks moscow mule and margarita. then we had to try the wolf whistle which is like an espresso martini. For food my boyfriend went for the oysters which were on happy hour and said they were fresh and delicious. The bread was fire and the Cavatelli pasta was decent, a little spicy for my liking!

Jaguar sun is one of my favorite happy hour spots especially for their oysters. Super cool, trendy, moody atmosphere perfect for a date night, ladies night, or intimate gathering. This time we sat at the bar and had exceptional service from all of the bartenders. There was never a point where any of us had an empty glass for more than a minute or two. As for the food… you really can’t go wrong with anything on their menu. One of my favorite apps is the Wagu carpaccio and we always have to get their oysters. Goes without saying, but don’t forget to try one of their Michelin awarded cocktails! (Not pictured) The living dead cocktail made me understand how truly deserving this award truly is. Definitely make a reservation or try to arrive early as the bar tends to fill up fast and walk ins aren’t always welcome.

Really is worth the hype! The staff is very attentive and of course the food is delicious. We ordered 2 rounds of the crab and corn agnolotti pasta because it was soooo good. Foie gras dessert was also amazing, and the wagyu beef carpaccio

This lovely little spot had been on my list for a while now. We swung by for date night and I was pleasantly surprised! The menu isn’t very extensive, but I can honestly say we enjoyed every single plate we ordered. The drinks were delicious. The atmosphere is moody, but well decorated. The service was immaculate and extremely quick. All our plates/drinks came out minutes upon placing the order. The only comment I have would be the quantity of the main entree. Overall, I’d rate it a 4-stars! Considering the amount we ordered, the price point wasn’t too bad either!

I had dinner at Jaguar Sun during my recent trip to Miami. It was nothing short of a 5 star experience. The staff were amazing. The atmosphere was incredible. The food and drinks were delicious. I ordered the Spicy Rigatoni and the Sebastian, which were both absolutely amazing. The rest of the items were 'on the house' (and still delicious). I loved my experience here and look forward to returning if I visit Miami again.

Very interesting place to say the least. It doesn’t look much from the outside, you will hardly notice it here. There is only seating inside and I found it obnoxiously loud. The bar area is cool, the ambiance is unique. They call it a pasta place but the pastas didn’t blew our minds. The portions were very small. We are happy we tried it, it was on our list when we looked into the photos and how the atmosphere was. But it was a let down and it is not a place I will return again. The staff was lovely tho.

A good experience overall. Great for groups to share pastas as the portions are reasonable. The tagliatelle was good but my personal favorites were the agnolotti and Maltagliati

We have been here a couple of times before with friends and always had a good time. It is a popular spot for many locals. They have decent bar food and drinks. The bartender is fun and makes a good drink. The ambiance is casual with a hipster vibe. They have 2 bars: one indoors and the other is outdoors. Choose for your mood. Both places are nice. The night we went, it wasn't busy at all, and we didn't feel like staying. It was the last stop of the evening, and we were tired by then. But we liked what we saw and will go again in the near future. There is a small parking lot in the back for free. If it is full, then you can park in the small strip next to the Anderson.

Went here for lunch after a friend's grandson's bar Mitzvah. A Mexican restaurant where the reception was outside on their patio. For hors d'oeuvre, they served hummus and guacamole with chips and vegetables. For lunch, it was a buffet with Caesar salad, a taco bar with beef, chicken , mushrooms, corn, and black beans. Left early, not for us.

Love the Anderson. I had visited my first time to Miami with a family friend & didn't remember the name, then when I visited recently I sought this place out based on Google maps vibes & when I got there realized it was the same place I had fallen in love with. I love all the spaces, especially the outdoor areas. The drinks are great, the staff are cool. Definitely a good time especially when there's a live dj.

I've been going here since it was Magnum piano bar years ago. Now its the Anderson and this place has expanded their outdoor space and they also has food trucks. The indoor venue was also modernized but they kep the original bar which is nostalgic. I love the different sections outside. Also they have a taco and pizza vendor that serves delicious food. I like the tacos from El Toro. Good quality and always made to order. I normally eat them inside "The Shack" which is a bar in a little hut outside. The drinks their are really good and the bartdender is super friendly. This is a great place to hangout with your friends. Check their website for the live performances. They do have good bands playing inside the lounge.

Great atmosphere and really awesome energy. We actually decided to check up the PopUp Market event that was been done at this bar. It was an overall awesome experience. Many many local vendors, great music played through the day. We had such a great time while we enjoyed some cocktails and the phenomenal music played by DJ Francesca @cavaliere_inesistente

Reviewing El Toro Taco Bar. First of all, that “valet” when the place is empty is entirely unnecessary. The parking is literally right next to it. A friend invited us here for BBQ, but there was only the taco place open. The guacamole was bland. The queso fundido was crazy chewy; I couldn’t even bite it. So I didn’t order the tacos, but my friend did, and she didn’t like them. Also, she mentioned that the margarita won an award in some competition, so we all ordered it, but it was an average margarita. The staff was friendly.

This may not be the most complete review, as I have only been here for their "Duck, Duck, Goose (trois)" event. However, if I had to give a recommendation based on this event, I would suggest you go there every weekend. The event was a celebration of all things duck, goose, and some pork. From drinks with bacon, to duck filled Nigri with roasted foie gras on top. The venue boasted an excellent outdoor area with music and much needed fans, from where you could watch the culinary delights being created and plated in exquisite fashion. Every dish was remarkable, with unexpected goose and duck trappings. We were treated to excellent mixologist skills in the outdoor bar, part the regular Anderson area. I was unable to get to the interior as I was not a VIP at the event, but I will venture back to be able to give you the full scoop. I must say this though. The staff's attention to detail and willingness to describe the different dishes and libations was most remarkable. Everything and everyone were extremely interactive and friendly, the perfect vibe I would look for in a hangout.

Kseniia and Mike were amazing. What a great experience. We got the Cacao Ceremony and the Taco Martini, both were absolutely delicious. Staff were so kind and clearly loved what they did. Awesome experience and will definitely come back!

This hidden gem in Miami, I can confidently say is one of the best up and coming bars in the city! From the moment we walked in, Serena (yes, like the tennis player!) made us feel so welcome. She was kind, attentive, and brought such a fun energy to the experience. The cocktails are crafted with real artistry, from the flavors to the presentation to the story behind each one! It’s a true speakeasy with such a nice upscale vibe, the kind of place that makes a night out feel extra special. If you’re looking for a unique cocktail experience with incredible hospitality, this is the spot.

We had an amazing experience at Bar Panamericano! Our servers — Aistis, Mikey, Ksenia, and Tex — made the evening truly exceptional. They were friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive without ever being intrusive. Every recommendation they gave was spot-on. We decided to taste our way through the menu and were impressed by every single dish. The flavors were bold, balanced, and beautifully presented. The cocktails were just as memorable — we especially loved the Remember the Maine 2.0 and the San Pedro Ceremony — both perfectly crafted and unique. What really made the night stand out, though, was the service. Aistis, Mikey, Ksenia, and Tex worked seamlessly together and created such a warm, polished experience that elevated the entire meal. It’s rare to find a team so professional and genuinely enthusiastic about what they do. Everything from start to finish was five-star — we’ll definitely be back!

I can’t recommend this bar enough! Came for drinks with friends before dinner and it’s such a tailored experience. Every drink has a story and is crafted with care! Can’t complain, they gave our party some parting shots… 1000/10 experience!

Amazing experience! All the drinks we had were out of this world. The bartenders were so sweet and friendly. Definitely recommend! 10/10

Amazing environment, outstanding Service! Didn’t get any food items this visit, but based off the drinks, I’m sure they’re amazing! Much love to Gabriel for taking such great care of us!

Panamericano is such a unique addition to Brickell. From the moment you walk in, you can tell it’s not your typical bar. The attention to detail, the atmosphere, and especially the drink presentation all stand out. Our server, Serena, made the night even better. She took the time to explain the concept behind the space and walked us through the story and ingredients behind each cocktail. Her enthusiasm and knowledge really elevated the experience. The ceremony drinks are unlike anything else in Miami — creative, immersive, and beautifully executed. If you’re looking for something unique and memorable, this spot is a must-visit.

Probably in fact most definitely the most I paid into to get in a club. $80 dollars and T.I.P was there on the night we went however, the music and the DJ became irritating. It was not worth it and if you’re thinking of going, I’d go to LIV. It looks fancy and VIP but doesn’t feel it. At least I got to hear TI sing his two well known songs otherwise The rating may be non existent. More hype than substance.

I can't blame the staff for the issues because I believe they are simply doing as they're told, but I think the establishment is poorly managed. The club is fine, nothing special, and the drinks are overpriced like any other club in Miami Beach. Apparently, you can only be served sparkling wine/champagne/Prosecco in a hard plastic champagne glass. Around 1am, I ordered a glass of bubbly rosé and was told that they are out of glasses so I'd have to wait (to clarify: the club opens at 11pm and doesn't close until 5am, but by 1am they were out of champagne glasses). When I stated that I don't mind the same amount in a plastic cup that they pour mixed drinks into, I was told "No," as if this was an unreasonable suggestion. So, I stood at the bar waiting for them to get the proper glasses (I wasn't willing to switch to liquor or beer). When some showed up, I caught the attention of the bar tender so that they didn't give all the glasses to customers who were just now ordering as I'd been waiting for the proper glasses. I guess I did this too rudely because I got attitude from the staff. I got my drink, signed the check, and then, not wanting to irritate the staff whom I could see were busy and whom I assumed were following the rules/regulations of the management, I wrote a simple statement on my bill expressing my thoughts of frustration: The management is awful and illogical. When I went back for my next drink, I was told that I was "cut off." The bar also would not serve the three friends I was with because the staff "knew" that my friends would just buy me a drink too, and I was meant to be cut off. Considering that I had paid quite a bit of money already, I hadn't cussed at the staff, I didn't cause a scene, I didn't harass other customers, and I wasn't sick anywhere in the building, I can only assume that my message was received by management and they retaliated. Therefore, proving my point of being awful and illogical. Just be aware that neither comment cards nor freedom of speech is respected at this establishment. Fortunately, there are plenty of other overpriced clubs in Miami Beach, so I won't be spending my money at this one in the future.

Very high end night club, be dressed to impress or you are not getting in. We purchased tickets in advance the night before, which I recomend you do. Believe the other reviews that the artists are NO SHOWS or just a lie to sell tickets. However, cover is cheap enough to just go here for the club itself. It is multiple levels, high energy, lots of lights and lasers, extremely extremely busy. You will be shoulder to shoulder with people and have to stand your ground being pushed from all sides. That makes its fun its it on way though. Like being in the front row in GA at a concert. Worth the visit, but drink before unless you are willing to ball out of control here... A vodka and cranberry was $40. I am not exaggerating. I couldn't believe a tab for ordering 2 drinks was $80... insane. Lots of beautiful people, lots of staff and bouncers, high end club. Worth the visit if your into this type of place, but be prepared to spend.

Sometimes the cover is 100 dollars at the door maybe more, mixed drinks are 30 dollars, that’s including a tip for the bartender. Sometimes they put tables right in the middle of the dance floor to break it up right down the middle so there in no dance floor at all when they do that. Sometimes the talent who’s advertised doesn’t perform so they’re just standing there with a spotlight on them while the DJ plays music of theirs. The lights are pretty extravagant.

Really? $150 for a ticket to see an artist and wait in line for hours like a peon, meanwhile groups cut the line with a promoter and group of girls? I understand their is a balance, but when a group spends over $600 to get in you shouldn’t be waiting in line for hours. This is a scandal.

I went there Saturday 18th June.. DJ Khaled was supposed to be doing a set, ronaldhinio was there (legendary footballer) and Drake was there as well. With names like that - you KNOW it's a high end club. Now I've been clubbing in a dozen countries, from London, to Budapest, to Thailand, and others. Most clubs will have a VIP area for bottle service, which is normal. The thing I personally didn't like about story is that the layout is set up to get you looking in on the tables that cost thousands of dollars, and unless you are having bottle service, you can see you are basically surplus to requirements for the club and you are all dancing on the outskirts of the middle of the club where the ballers are with their expensive tables. It's an exclusive club, so I get it. But it's still designed for the wealthy and for the status of getting yourself those exclusive tables. But the music was great.

Good music (Mostly Hip-Hop). The general admission las time I went was at around $30 so is not as expensive as other clubs. Dress code is supposed to be formal but I saw a lot of people wearing casual clothing.

Stopped by for the first time and was blown away! We had ourselves a couple of beers and enjoyed them with some burgers, they were SO GOOD! We ordered the Guavanator, which I highly, highly recommend. It was absolutely delicious, the perfect mix of sweet and savory. The other one was the Smackdown Burger, which leans more on the classic side, but both were flavorful, juicy, and cooked just right. The fries were also crispy and tasty 😍 The atmosphere was super chill and relaxed, perfect for hanging out with friends or grabbing a casual bite. Service was great, friendly, attentive, and quick. Everyone made us feel welcome without being over the top. The location is convenient, and while it’s not necessarily eye-catching from the outside, the food and overall vibe make it worth stepping in. We’ll definitely be coming back, and bringing more friends next time!

Nice place to sit have a drink and a bite to eat, the croquetas where amazing and the drinks also… had an amazing time service was also

Been going to Taurus for the last few months and can say the food, drinks and overall environment are great! Also, Andy’s trivia is so fun. The bar is a staple in the area.

Worst service. They took my $40 dollar bourbon pour before I was done. The woke waitress told me it wasn’t her fault she took a drink that wasn’t finished. Bar manager too scared to provide good customer service and make things right. I paid my bill and will never return. To come insult you after they admitted guilt was the worst experience I’ve had. Unless you want to be mistreated do not visit this establishment.

UPDATE: Taurus has had a MAJOR upgrade in their food recently. The kitchen is run by Masa Craft and the food is absolutely delicious. Our meal consisted of the Cuban Sando Lumpias, Wings world(shwing sauce) and the Fili-cheesesteak. Masa Craft knows what they are doing in the kitchen. Come delight your taste buds at Taurus you won't be let down. Lovely neighborhood bar with amazing inviting knowledgeable staff.

I was asked by the waitress to move from a table to the bar because my party was 2 people instead of 3+. Meanwhile there were other pairs who were not made to move and several empty tables. It made me feel unwelcome. This was my second time visiting but I will not be returning, unfortunately. (Service was poor the first time I visited also.)

I’ve never been to Taurus before. I came for the food, MASA CRAFT. I AM A LOYAL FOLLOWER OF THE DELICIOUS FOOD THESE GUYS MAKE. I CAME HERE TO SUPPORT THEM ON THEIR FIRST NIGHT OUT. I WISH I COULD ORDER EVERYTHING OFF THE MENU, I’VE HAD EVERYTHING NUMEROUS TIMES THROUGHOUT THEIR OTHER POP-UPS AND DIFFERENT LOCATIONS. I DONT DRINK BUT IM GONNA ORDER A LA TROPICAL BEER. Their croquettes are the best in Miami. Their wings are brutally good. Their cheesesteaks are my favorite and these guys serve my favorite burger I’ve ever had. Everyone should finish off their meal with their dessert ridiculously good Unfortunately, the cheesesteak did not last enough time to take a photo. I can’t wait to come back and bring my family.

Love this place! It has a chill, retro-inspired lounge vibe with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The staff is always friendly and attentive, the food is outstanding, and the music really sets the tone — perfect mix of energy and relaxation. Definitely one of the best spots in South Miami to unwind with friends or enjoy a night out.

Upon arrival, we were immediately sat my the nice young lady in the front. Just after, we were met by a not so kind, heavy set guy who told us that the table we were sat was taken and we needed to move. We were taken to the back of the restaurant to another booth in an area that was secluded and dead. My wife asked the guy that moved us if we could just have the booth that was empty in the area we were just at. He said that it was meant for parties of 5 and mind you, the booth we were sat in the secluded area was exactly the same size. We weren't even offered if we'd like to wait for the better area and the guy could have handled the situation better. Not welcoming at all. Never coming here again. Came all the way from the Redlands to look for a nice place. What a waste of time.

I went to foxes lounge just last weekend and it never fails to be a great time. Amazing food, drinks, and the service is unmatched. I was helped by Jordan whom if you’re lucky enough to get while there will take great care of you and even make you laugh a bit. Thanks fox’s and thanks Jordan !

Our server…. I think her name was misha she was great, greeted us from the jump and had a very joyful vibe. She explained the menu very well and thorough leaving us with no questions at the end. Amazing service!

The place has a beautiful ambiance and our waitress Misha was amazing. She was ao kind and always checking on us and recommend great options. Will definitely be coming back!

I passed by tonight for the first time and I absolutely loved it! Yuvi took care of us and he was amazing. Super informative and friendly. Great musi! Would come again! ✨

I’ve been going to this bar for 3 years. Jordan had been my favorite server ever since. Our 3 girl trio has been a welcomed regular group over the years.

Live band and speakeasy vibes which makes this such a hidden gem in South Beach! If you’re looking for a chill atmosphere get there early and then later it gets crowded / turns into a dance floor. Cocktails were delicious I had the watermelon flavor vodka martini🍉🍹

Had a great first time at Medium Cool! I came for jazz at 7pm on Sunday night which was pretty empty but started to fill up as the night went on. They also have a DJ that comes on at 10pm when it gets busier. Happy hour cocktails were $12. Great date night or girl's night spot!

*Drinks* Cosmopolitan 2.0 Big daddy rum punch Fresh strawberry negroni Blood orange margarita 2 glasses of champagne Miami Beach Iced Tea *Food* Cheese Croquettes w/ fig jam Nice speakeasy-like lounge with live jazz. The atmosphere is laid back and chill in a large dark room. Highly recommended for cocktail and live jazz music lovers.

We went last Thursday …what a gem! They serve small platea until 930pm from the Gale’s hotel kitchen. Service was super friendly. Great drinks and happy hour. Jazz band was super good. Great ambiance. L’ora of couples.

Snazzy, jazzy, intimate, relaxed, and a bit of a speakeasy vibe. If you’re staying in Miami Beach or south beach this isn’t far of a walk. They have live music, great and personable wait staff. Drinks are interesting but still tasteful. Prices are similar to most in Miami Beach. My friends and I loved to sit and chat and have fun here. It was a good area to relax and go out but still forget about the rush of the city

Very good place. Before 10pm there is live jazz band. After 10pm this place turn to small night club with DJ. Good cocktails and atmosphere. You can meet pretty good looking people here.

Such a great vibe, the live music was an unexpected surprise and Josh made our visit unforgettable. Such great service & our drinks were so yum. The menu had good drinks but the highlight was leaving it up to Josh to surprise us, he did not disappoint. 10/10 recommend!

Chucky was the man and super helpful to try to find a time that worked best with my schedule and the weather.

This is a 10 star review of South Beach Surf Club. Chucky was absolutely amazing. Excellent teacher and extremely fun too! This was my first time surfing and I couldn't imagine learning this with anyone else but Chuck! Highly recommended and definitely coming back for more lessons!

Hooked me up with a nice board and advice on spots to surf for a reasonable price. Very smooth rental process, they dropped off a board at my hotel and picked it up, and accept online payment (venmo, Paypal, Apple Pay etc.). Chill guys and good communication would def recommend!

NOT AT THE LISTED ADDRESS I had hoped to rent a board here, and I called to check that they would have rentals the day I wanted to get out. I got the voicemail and it said I’d get a faster response texting, so I did that, and they just said they’d have rentals 9-4 tomorrow, so I planned on that. My friends and I got to the address on google maps and it’s a Häagen-dazs. I called and got no response, then tried texting asking where it is since it’s not at the address and never got a response! We asked around, looked around, looked on the beach, but found no surf shop.

Chucky and Turtle are great instructors. It was a good time and we caught some waves on the first lesson!

I had a great time learning with Chucky. It was a lot of fun! I’m looking forward to my next classes.

Not here

We loved our time at Nikki Beach! I enjoyed the vibe and atmosphere as well as the service. Portions were small and prices are expensive, however, taste was average. I liked the fact that you can easily go to the beach while you’re waiting for your order. Overall, good experience!

If you want a spectacular beach dining experience in Miami, the best place to be is Nikki Beach Miami Beach! This place is an entire vibe, where you can feel at ease and laid-back, but also indulge in a very ritzy way. You can groove to the music and still hear the ocean waves barreling on shore, not to mention the ocean air is quite fragrant. After the delectable food and vivacious drinks have been consumed, you can walk the beach thanks to direct beach access from the restaurant. Anytime of day, I say, Nikki Beach Miami Beach is where it’s at!

Nikki Beach is truly a Miami icon, the OG of Miami beach clubs that sets the standard for all the rest. If you know, you know! The service here is always exceptional and consistent, no matter how many times we visit. A special shoutout to Felix, who is an incredible server, he is attentive, accommodating, and always going above and beyond to make sure our experience is perfect. My family and I especially love their Sunday brunch. It is currently priced at $85 per person (excluding drinks). If you reserve a daybed the brunch price goes toward the $100 per person minimum spend. The buffet spread is impressive and beautifully curated. There's an omelet station, a crepe and waffle station, and a variety of hot dishes. The carving station offers tender cuts of filet, while the sushi station, complete with the cutest soy sauce fountain, is both playful and delicious. Be sure to try the ceviche it's incredibly fresh and flavorful. And don't miss the paella, try that as well. With an array of salads, vibrant seasonal fruit, and a dessert station, you're sure to leave full and satisfied. What truly takes this experience to the next level is the beachside vibe. There's a live DJ playing the best house music and each time I visit, there is someone playing a live instrument. Nikki Beach continues to deliver the ultimate Miami brunch experience. Can't wait to go back!

I GOT FOOD POISONING!! I used to love this club, it was my favorite in Miami and I was happy to bring my friend there for the food and atmosphere experience for her first time in Miami. We came 2 days ago and it was empty! Hostess said they are serving people only upstairs and said $50 minimum per person- ok! We ordered sushi, salmon, edamame, chicken and some wine and non alcoholic cocktail. Sushi didn’t taste fresh at all! Nori was coming out when you take it and I tried shrimp and crabs meat- gross and not fresh at all!! Server picked up plate full of sushi and didn’t ask a word about it!!! We paid for it. I ate salmon and spinach / two hours later I start being sick! Barely came to the airport with uber and I threw up 6 times and had bad diarrhea!!! I was shaking for next three hours!! Ridiculous how bad the food poisoning was!! Be careful! If a restaurant is empty, DO NOT EAT THERE!! If server doesn’t ask what’s wrong with your food after you barely touched it/ something is off!!!

I had a wonderful afternoon here with my sister. We shared a bottle of rosé and the Porto Heli Greek Platter, everything was fresh and absolutely delicious. Our server, Eduardo, was fantastic: kind, attentive, and respectful. The music set the perfect vibe—lively but not overwhelming

Had a great lunch with friends and was a great atmosphere. Between the group we had the Miami Cuban, Chicken Cesar Salad, Fish Sandwich and pepperoni pizza. A great place to send a few hours relaxing in the cabanas.

Horrible experience at Nikki Beach Miami. We arrived a little before noon and were the first guests there, yet the two hostesses, Monica and a brunette with a ponytail, told us that all the beds were sold out and that we had to go to the beach. This seemed very strange to us since it was low season, and we had even tried to book by email a few days earlier without receiving any reply. Luckily, we ran into the manager, who kindly and professionally said he would set up a bed especially for us. However, Monica still disagreed and then told us there was a $200 minimum spend. We said that was fine, but explained that we don’t drink alcohol and would consume food and non-alcoholic beverages to reach that minimum. She then said no, that we absolutely had to order a bottle, and started talking about financial matters without knowing anything about our means. This policy is very strange. If I’m pregnant or don’t drink for other reasons, does that mean I can’t access Nikki Beach? Am I supposed to buy a bottle just to leave it untouched? We gave up negotiating for a bed in the restaurant area and spent the day on the Nikki Beach sand instead, where our meals, sushis and wraps, were served in lunch boxes (see photo), which is far below the level of service this establishment usually advertises. Around 4:30 pm, we walked back inside Nikki Beach which was supposedly “sold out” only to find that about 90% of the beds were empty (see photo). It became clear to us that Monica’s refusal wasn’t because the place was sold out or because we didn’t drink alcohol, but simply because she didn’t like our physical appearance. After speaking with other guests, we learned that younger-looking people are not always welcome (we are 26 and 27 years old), which could explain why she didn’t want us there that day. Thanks anyway to the manager Brandon, who did try to welcome us and even invited us to come back, and to Cazeau for his impeccable service on the beach.

Great experience at an Iconic place, but I must say that it felt “ processed” . It is obviously a money making operation but for what we paid, the food quality could have and should have been better. The drinks were very weak, and very expensive. I am so glad we went to The Palace for the experience but once will be enough. The Queens were amazing and our server was great, just disappointed in the “ get em in, and get em out “ vibe

We arrived a little before 7:00 pm to get a good seat for the show. We ended up sitting at the bar with an awesome view of the performers. The drinks were good and the people were nice, our bar tender Alejandro poured excellent drinks. We only had appetizers here and they were good. This is a must hit place if exploring South beach and the fun things it has to offer.

We came for drag brunch on Labor Day and it was a blast. The $60 cover gets you seats for a phenomenal 2+ hour long drag show plus a brunch entree and unlimited mimosas. Really really fun, but be warned that almost no one is safe from audience participation 😅 remember to tip the dolls!!

Sunday brunch is awesome. So fun, such a great experience. 10/10 would recommend.

Fun and a great Drag show. Everyone had a good time. Food was really good and the service was great even though it was really busy.

What an amazing show! We had an amazing time, didn't eat anything but the food looked really good!

It's just so much fun! The drag shows every 15 minutes keep the vibe way up. The food is great...and the staff is so much fun. They always have fun with their tables. I make a special trip with my large group of friends to this spot every time I come to Florida! Just a great, fun time! Check it out!!!

I had such a great experience at LPM! The food was absolutely delicious, every dish was full of flavor, the drink was amazing, and the dessert was the perfect way to end the lunch. What really made it special was the service. Sophi was incredible, super charismatic, fun, and just made the whole lunch even better. And Javi was also super nice and attentive.

The service was truly incredible, and our server’s knowledge about the history behind the food and drinks was very impressive. The food and the ambiance were just as outstanding. I can honestly say these were the best escargots I’ve had in Miami.

It was decent French food. They were missing a lot of French classics. From beef tartar, to pate, to duck breast. The food itself is pretty good but I would not call this a French restaurant. Servers are very friendly but they’re extremely slow and not attentive.

We went to celebrate a friend’s birthday—she’s French—and she had told us about this restaurant. Honestly, the experience was beyond amazing. The place is absolutely spectacular, the atmosphere is stunning, and the service deserves more than five stars—truly excellent, I couldn’t ask for better. And the food… wow! Out of this world, absolutely delicious. The recommendation was spot on. Definitely a highly recommended spot! highly recommend the escargot—it’s truly out of this world, absolutely delicious. The lamb was a big WOW, the langoustines were incredible, and the yellowtail carpaccio was just perfect. Honestly, everything was delicious!! 😊

This has become a classic favorite and a must try restaurant in Brickell. The escargot has to be the best I’ve ever had in my life. Every dish they serve was as good as the next, the black lemonade is a must try. We had the whole Branzino and ribeye steak. Now, the cheesecake is our favorite, we always order more than one.

Been to the bar couple of times and first time dining here, on Miami Spice lunch menu. What an underwhelming experience. Shrimps was literally 2 pieces, bread was not warm, steak was overcooked - I order medium rare and that was so chewy …. It was a cheap cut as well. The mushroom pasta just made me question myself what’s the hype about this restaurant, so mediocre. And btw I waited an hour for my food. Service is so slow I can’t imaging coming here w a big group.

Unforgettable dining experience! Javier took excellent care of us and explained every dish with such thoughtfulness. The sommelier who attended to us was also very knowledgeable and suggested both alcoholic and nonalcoholic beverages. Truly fine dining without the pretension. And, most importantly, DELICIOUS food. Highly recommend and plan to go again to try more dishes. The potato gratin was a revelation. Javi is a gem!

I really liked the vibe here, the music was good and the place had great energy. I had the Social Smashburger with the spicy ranch wedges and both were excellent. Honestly those wedges were amazing. Drinks came out pretty quick but the food took a while which was a little frustrating. Our server was great though, really attentive and helpful. The one thing that really bothered me was how long it took to get the Inter Miami game on. This is Miami and Messi is playing, so it was kind of crazy that management seemed totally lost about it. Prices are a little on the high side but that’s normal for Miami.

Visited American Social in Miami (Brickell) today for lunch. Special shout out to the bartender, Emely for her amazing recommendation, Southwest Chicken. This is noted as a House Specialty and they aren’t wrong. Absolutely delicious! Staff was incredibly friendly and the atmosphere and water views were fabulous. Can’t wait to come again next time I’m in town!

Came to Miami for a bachelor party and this place was a hit. It’s in a great location in Brickell offering amazing drinks, food, and really good prices. We loved this place so much we had drinks at night and brunch in the morning. We loved seeing yachts cruise by on the Miami River from their patio and how close all the other bars and shops were. Highly recommend this place for any occasion.

Cool location. Sat on the patio. Not a full house, but the service was a little slow. I enjoyed my steak and wedges. Music was a little loud for my taste.

My father and I went to this restaurant while in town to watch the Louisville Cardinals dismantle the Miami hurricanes, LOL! We went to watch Thursday night football and have dinner! The service was great, the bathrooms were very clean, and the atmosphere was like being in a movie. The next time I visit Miami it is definitely on my list of places to go and especially if it is during football or basketball season.

Alyssa was our server. The sweetest and friendliest who provided awesome service and great recommendations. Ahi Tuna !! Truffle steak melt. Yummy!

Highly recommend very nice atmosphere as well as sitting by the water. Service great as well as the food.

Nice rooftop restaurant in Wynwood with scenic views over Miami. Food was tasty although portions seemed rather small for the price. Nice Mediterranean food options like the Greek salad and Hummus although that was a bit dry and one had to order the bread to go with it. Music was unnecessarily loud but fortunately staff turned it down a bit when asked. Overall a good brunch experience.

I cannot speak to the food here because we just came for drinks during their happy hour (which they also offer on the weekends.) The happy hour menu does offer food items but we had just come out of brunch and just wanted to keep the party going. This place was the right spot as the DJ was spinning and the sun was setting, definitely a great backdrop to a lovely Miami night. The server was very sweet and made sure we knew when happy hour was over to get in one last drink.

We hosted our 10 year high school reunion here and it was nothing short of amazing. We worked with Flavia the event manger; she made the process very smooth and easy to reserve the space. She made sure our event was a success and we had everything we needed. Matias our server was exceptional, he got everything right and was very attentive. The staff went above and beyond to make sure our class reunion was a success! Great atmosphere and an amazing spot to grab drinks plus enjoy the views!

5 Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had an amazing experience at Astra Rooftop Miami, thanks to our server Carlos! He gave us the best recommendations — the seafood pasta and the branzino fish were absolutely incredible. Carlos really knew what he was talking about and even steered us away from a few dishes he didn’t personally recommend, which showed how much he cared about giving us the best experience. The spots he did recommend ended up being some of the best meals I’ve ever had. Thank you, Carlos, for making our night unforgettable!

Awesome spot in the heart of Wyndwood with great service, delicious food and easy parking. What else can you ask for on a Thursday night? The live DJ was a nice touch. Perfect place to end a busy day.

Overall the vibe here is nice! Great view. Music is a little loud for conversation but still good. Staff was polite and helpful. Calamari was good. Drinks were delicious. Unfortunately I ordered medium steak and it came out well done. I did get a new one but it wasn’t much better for $49 it should be better quality. I would give this place another chance since all the other aspects of the evening went well. Worth trying imo

I wanted to give this place a higher rating. But unfortunately our experience wasn’t like others. I came in right at open time. We waited at the hostess stand and they said, “we open at 5”, we were there 2 minutes till 5. I wasn’t sure what the message meant. Then another staff member says “we open at 5 you sit where you like” he precedes to go in to verify with a bartender and they said “yes they can sit at the bar”. There’s MANY servers around with very little people there I believe it was my group and two other tables. It took a little time for someone to come greet us. And even just during our visit our server didn’t come check on us. I ordered a Berry Margarita and received a spicy margarita which is fine. I ordered the Brussel sprouts and it was delicious, just needed something that wasn’t big but enough to get a full stomach. I believe this is more of an experience to go later when it’s getting dark to get that atmosphere. The vibes were just not it at the moment. Beautiful place it is and the views are just amazing with the location of Wynwood. I couldn’t get enough of the area.
