50 Best Cocktail Bars near South Miami

“Great food, hospitality, and ambience at Kitchen 57 last night, which happened to be New Year’s Eve. My roast chicken was fantastic, tender and full of flavor, with a medley of roasted vegetables. Hard to do something so simple this well. Husband said his Cioppino (seafood stew) was the best restaurant meal he has had in a long while. Bowl was wiped clean with bread that came alongside. What a welcome addition to fine dining options in South Miami that won’t break the bank.“

“We had lunch at this restaurant, and compared to other places I've dined, the grilled octopus was enormous. The cuisine was also excellent and the amounts were generous. This cafe gets a ten because the rates were very affordable and the bread and deserves were amazing. It will become your go-to seafood restaurant!“

“Our favorite Happy Hour in Miami. The most delicious empanadas- try them all. The calamari is also perfection.“

“Best food I’ve had since moving to Miami. Also the best atmosphere. I went there with my wife and best friend. I felt like I was also in a safe space (lgbtq friendly fo sho)

Drea was the absolute best. Her energy is next level! Mike our bartender was nothing but smiles and rad recommendations. All the food we had was FIRE. The chicken sandwich I will be coming back for. I work at a hotel and I will definitely be sending people here.“

“Maybe I’m just TOO OLD for this environment (look at my attached photo). The “smashed burgers” …are NOT real “smashed burgers”, you can tell they were cheap, processed “meat” patties. The wings, event though I did want them well done—they went to an extreme. It was like eating “hard crackers”. The BEER ? was Cold, so that’s a “+”. Fries were “meh”.

Come try and judge for yourself, it’s not worth it for me to come back. I wish them well and LOTS of SUCCESS with their type of crowd. Music was just wayyy TOO LOUD for Me. To the point that it hurt my ears. Again, maybe I’m just TOO OLD for this environment (look at my attached photo).“

“Dorol steakhouse had some of the best food I have ever eaten. The place was quiet and being visitors from the far east coast, the waiter and the team were quite exceptional in their service. Great team specifically Jesus, he was a great server I would recommend to anyone any day! The chef did great even our kids enjoyed their meal. Will definitely comeback! I recommend this restaurant to anyone local or visiting Dorol or Miami area in general.“

“I recently visited Coconut Grove with my wife from Colombia, and we decided to check out The Oyster Bar by Eva. Criscelis, the bartender, was absolutely incredible! Her cocktails were delicious, and she was very friendly and conversational, making the whole experience even better. We had a fantastic time and enjoyed a wonderful atmosphere.

If you’re looking for great drinks and delicious oysters, I highly recommend this spot! It’s a must-visit in Coconut Grove.“

A really authentic food experience in a modern atmosphere with amazing water views. Highly recommend and feel free to splurge a little bit while you are there and try some new things. I promise you that you will not be disappointed.“

“Great place!!! I just had my birthday there this weekend, I found it in yelp and some recommendations from people I know, I read the reviews and like them and made my reservation and went there for the first time, we loveeeeeed it! What a pleasant ambiance, loved the music, drinks are good, the dj played all kind of music and genres, loved the people next to our table, we were all happy! I had the greatest birthday there, we also had the cake with our eternal Venezuelan song, I truly recommend it if you want to have a good time with your loved ones! Thanks for the service !!!“

“It was my first time there. The restuarant is nice, ambiance was great and food was amazing. I had the pistachio French toast and it great. The portion was huge, I count finish but wished I had the stomach to do so. I will definitely be back another visit. Our server was attentive, seemed a bit on the soft spoken side or not much of a talker but she ensured her presence was there and didn't leave us sitting for long periods of time without a check-in“

“I went to celebrate my mom's birthday, I fell in love with the place as soon as I arrived, everyone was super friendly, my waiter was Francisco and I have to say that he is excellent, he suggested the dishes and he was very friendly and the food was a 10 out of 10. I will return every time I can

Parking: It's easy to park

Kid-friendliness: The menu is varied so that children can choose from and there is a wall of Legos for photos“

“Stellar mixology at one of the best rooftops in Miami. It was a very memorable afternoon into evening 🌞“

“I was here for a specific reason, to craft my own pizza, which was NOT on the menu. The women at the front said “You can ask, but I am not entirely sure” and that was good enough for me.The bartender, Chris, was extremely helpful and personable, and I wanted to create my own personal pizza, so he called out a chef to help me.One of the chefs, Tony an experienced foodie from NY, came out to discuss the order I wanted and told me it would be a little pricier as I wanted a “fat sandwich pizza” a staple from where I am in NJ and where I went to college.This pizza is a white pizza with no sauce besides buffalo drizzled over the top piled high with mozzarella cheese, french fries, chicken tender pieces and mozzarella sticks.The pizza was AMAZING, one of the best fat sango’s I had ever eaten, maybe they will put it on their menu for me :-).The price was $35 for this one pizza as the bartender whom was extremely busy accidentally charged me for a cheese pizza + a side of all the toppings. The chef corrected this mistake and comp’d me a bruschetta as he could not charge back what I paid with.Apparently restaurants starting with B in Wynwood have something in common, friendly, experienced staff and fantastic food.I introduce myself to make conversation at every restaurant and Baccano went above and beyond with my experience.“

“love this place! so much fun and good food!“

“Best salad … shrimp beets avocado OMG … 10 out of 10“

Dietary restrictions: Great for gluten free guests!

Parking: Spots around the area on the street.“

“What a great experience! Right in South Miami! Our waitress, Karen, was amazing! Very attentive and extremely helpful with the menu and drinks. She recommended the Omakase Signature to share. It comes with a variety of sushi. Compliments to the chef, it was exactly what we wanted and needed. 100% recommend coming down and seeing Karen and enjoying the delicious food and atmosphere!“

“Mr Christopher Ragland,was a breath of fresh air he was kind, intentional & paid attention to details ,our dining experience was 10stars we will return when in town from Houston.“

“Great fluid space in wynwood, where you can enjoy views on "higher ground" & also escape the heat to nestle indoors. Interior is really Modern with nice touches, our bartender was AHMAZING. (Samantha I believe was her name) & they also have events regularly.And for a place where food isn't the main focus - the food was different and well executed. We tried the veggie burger with the chili relish & Tzatziki - very cool combo ??“

“The best smoked turkey BLT and Mac-n-cheese I’ve ever had. Simply amazing“
