Extremely disappointed with this location. I recently moved to Miami and attended a “professional networking” event that was advertised and scheduled here. When I arrived, several people were already waiting outside, and the place appeared closed. When we called, the staff acted unaware that any event had even been booked at their venue.
It’s unfortunate that businesses allow situations like this, as it damages their credibility and leaves a negative impression—especially on newcomers and young professionals trying to build connections. Based on other reviews, this seems to be a RECURRING ISSUE. Very disappointing, and I hope more people see these reviews before making the long commute many of us made, only to find a locked door.

Not really my type of place, but I have to say I had a good time. The music was very good and created a fun vibe.

Too ghetoo. Don’t come here. There are better places with better music. The alquilare of people here is not great. Go elsewhere for a vibe. This place REEKS

Extremely disappointed with the lack of professionalism and transparency from this restaurant. I arrived for an event that was supposed to be hosted at their location—an event I paid for—and there was absolutely nothing happening. No setup, no signage, no staff that knew anything about it. When I asked for information about the organizer, the restaurant refused to provide any answers or assistance.
This raises serious concerns. It almost feels like the restaurant is complicit in a scam, allowing fake events to be promoted at their location, collecting parking or food sales, and then pretending they have nothing to do with it when people show up confused and frustrated.
Whether they’re directly involved or just turning a blind eye, this is unacceptable. Businesses have a responsibility to protect their patrons from fraud and deception—not stay silent while people are losing time and money. I will not be coming back, and I strongly warn others to stay away from any event or business practices linked to this place.

Absolutely crazy work. We were a group of four women who were entirely ignored for at least 10-15 minutes while the bouncer argued with one of the bartenders. We’re told it’s $20 minimum to consume. One of the girl’s boyfriend came with the card and wanted to charge him $100 before realizing he was with us and then said its $50 each of us. Shady and unprofessional behavior at this establishment.

I was about to go in there for the first time tonight and was told at the door that the cover is $20 cash only. I said i don’t have any cash just card and he pointed out an ATM. He also said that if i decide to pay with card I would be charged 4 drinks at $80. What!!??? So cover is either $20 cash or $80 card?? What!!?? I turned around and walked away.
