Miami Bar and Club News and Reviews

Featured Bars/Clubs

Cafeina

This bar and lounge, the Wynwood Café District's first, is an oasis. The venue includes a spacious outdoor area with couches under glowstick-lit tree branches, a goth-like candlelit interior, an art gallery, and an upstairs lounge.

Seven Seas

Sports and the sea collide at this sunken ship of a locals bar. Pirate paraphernalia and random sports equipment litter the walls and ceilings giving off a friendly hole in the wall atmosphere.

Wall Lounge

The entrance to Wall Lounge is located right outside the garden at the W Hotel on South Beach. Design elements include light shows on the walls, frosted glass doors in the bathrooms, and high ceilings.

Bar Louie

Bardot
3456 N. Miami Ave. Miami, FL 33127
305-576-7750
http://www.bardotmiami.com Sick of social media? Bardot has a parking-lot entrance, no sign, and a zero-photography policy. A long bar dominates one side of the single open space, while Moroccan-cool lounge furniture, a pool table, and a stage take up the other half. Topnotch local bands, musicians, and DJs play regularly, and late-night parties make this spot prime for after hours. Plus there's also a weekday happy hour. Expect a cover charge, expensive drinks, and the possibility of a South Beach-style door hassle on busy nights. Read more about this Miami bar or club >>

Beelzebub's Cave
164 NW 20th St. Miami, FL 33137

http://www.facebook.com/beelzebubscave This bare bones, warehouse style, underground music venue on the northern border of Overtown mostly hosts local and touring acts from the heavy side of the music spectrum. The folks in charge form the band Shroud Eater, and The Cave is also their practice space. There is room enough for circle pits, crowd surfing, and of course standing hard with your arms crossed. It is not a traditional club and there are no bottle specials, but the music is loud, and so is the crowd. This venue won our Best Rock CLub award for 2011. Read more about this Miami bar or club >>

Churchill's Pub
5501 NE 2nd Ave. Miami, FL 33137
305-757-1807
http://www.churchillspub.com Miami is sorely lacking in decent rock clubs, so Churchill's is home to many a scruffy punker who is too real for South Beach. A pair of pool tables, a large room for bands, and a sizable outdoor patio help house the mainland rock faithful. Read more about this Miami bar or club >>

Crescendos Jazz & Blues Lounge
2201 Biscayne Blvd. Miami, FL 33137
305-967-8176
http://www.crescendojazzandblues.com Look for live music from Miami's talented roster of area jazz musicians at this sleek, contemporary bar, lounge, restaurant, and nightclub. You will find the sounds of funk, and blues on two levels. The space caters to corporate and private parties for special events. The full kitchen turns out American standards and Caribbean inspired soul food. Mostly though, it's a place on Biscayne Boulevard to have a drink, a fine meal, and to enjoy the smooth sounds from the stage. Read more about this Miami bar or club >>
El Bajareque Bar
278 NW 36th St. Miami, FL 33127
305-576-5170
El Bajareque is a diamond in the rough. This family-run restaurant offers huge portions of freshly made Puerto Rican cuisine - including appetizers, soups, and desserts as authentic as they come - at seriously low prices. Try the authentic Borinquen appetizers, such as alcapurrias ($1.50), which consist of ground beef stuffed in dough made from plantains and starchy tubers and then deep-fried. Or check out the pasteles ($2): pork chunks wrapped in plantain dough. And you cannot visit without trying the empanadas ($1), available with choice of beef, pork, shrimp, or chicken. The shrimp empanadas are so good you might want to order a dozen to go. Entrées include bistec encebollado - a zesty steak smothered in cooked onions - and the extremely popular pollo a la plancha, an enormous flattened chicken breast that oozes a lime-rich marinade with every bite. Both dishes cost a measly $6.50 each, as do most of the other dinner entrées and daily specials. The stuffed and savory sandwiches (pork, steak, chicken, midnight, and Cuban) run between $3 and $4. But the best part of eating at El Bajareque is the service. From the kitchen to the table, the Palenzuela-Fernandez family treats you as one of its own. Don't be surprised if you end up on a first-name basis with the entire clan before it's time to order the delectable arroz con leche ($1.50), a perfect incarnation of rice pudding.

Hurricane Grill & Wings
3201 N. Miami Ave. Miami, FL 33127
305-576-7133
http://www.hurricanewings.com The highlight of Hurricane Grill & Wings is the seemingly endless choice of sauces - 32, to be exact - that flavor the wings. They are broken down into groups ranging from category one (mild) to category five (seek shelter) and include flavors as varied as barbecue, Jamaican jerk, and "ridiculously hot hurricane sauce." It might sound a little gimmicky, but the sauces aren't bad. Wings - boneless and otherwise - are sold in ten, 15, 20, and 50 piece platters ($10 to $40). The menu also includes a large selection of appetizers such as smoked fish dip ($9) and nachos and cheese dip ($7), as well as sandwiches ($8 to $10), salads ($4 to $10), burgers ($8 to $9), and seafood ($11). Add to that a solid selection of beers and microbrews - from Corona to Purple Haze - and flat-screen TVs, and this Midtown Shops outpost of the Fort Pierce chain becomes a great place to watch sports in an area with few options for that.

Lester's
2519 NW 2nd Ave. Miami, FL 33127
305-456-1784
http://www.lestersmiami.com Lester's would be the newest little coffee shop in Wynwood only if it weren't also true that it's the newest little bar in the arts district as well. Stylishly simple, the décor includes a wooden bar, tables with chairs, a small green couch, and a hipsterrific wall of mustaches. Lester's is not only a comfy spot for the arts crowd to eat and drink, but also it's a great place to catch poetry readings and buy arts and poetry journals and intellectual-type magazines. Prices are more than affordable, with a single shot of espresso costing only $1.75. For lovers of a bit of caffeine with whipped cream, a café con panna ($2) will bring perky pleasure. And beer drinkers will be pleased with the substantial selection. From a Narragansett lager ($3.50) to a Stone Arrogant Bastard ale ($13.50), there's a taste available for the frugal boozer and the staunch connoisseur. Wine is available by the bottle or glass, including Borgo "M" Pinot Grigio ($22.50/$9) and a La Maialina Super Tuscan "Gertrude" red ($43.50/$11). Happy-hour drinks are 15 percent off Tuesday through Friday from 5 to 7 p.m., and if you have thirsty friends, a bucket of six beers is $15. For a snack, the Cuban PB&J ($6) turns a lunchbox classic into a local favorite with peanut butter and guava jelly on Cuban bread. Vegetarians will enjoy a spinach bulgar wheat wrap ($6.50) and baked garden and root veggie chips ($3.50). Tuna and egg salad sandwiches also are on the menu ($6.75) for a boost of protein.

From the ashes of Bar in Overtown, rises this indie culture centric watering hole on the border between Wynwood and Little Haiti. There are all the accoutrements of a fine home away from home including pool table, and an actual boat in the open air back yard. Concerts and DJs are the norm and the venue stays open late.

Mercadito Midtown
3252 NE 1st Ave. Miami, FL 33137
786-369-0430
http://www.mercaditorestaurants.com Mercadito, with locations in New York and Chicago, brings innovative Mexican cooking to the booming midtown Miami neighborhood. This sleek, upscale Mexican eatery has ample outdoor seating that extends beyond the doors of an airy dining room. Service is friendly but slow. Fortunately, the drink menu is extensive, making the wait quite tolerable. Entrées, or "platos fuertes," include chile relleno ($21.50), steak Tampiqueña ($24.50), and enchiladas verdes ($21.50). Taco selections ($14.50 each) include the traditional pastor, carnitas, and mole, as well as some new variations called estilo baja (fish) and rajas (black bean hash). An extensive guacamole menu offers unique combinations such as apple, tomatillo, almond, and habanero. There's also mole poblano with plantain and pico de gallo. Choose one for $8.50 or three for $13.50. Happy-hour specials and all-you-can-eat taco deals are available at various times and days. Read more about this Miami bar or club >>

Midtown Sports Bar
195 NW 36th St. Miami, FL 33127
305-576-4424
Midtown Sports Bar sits on a corner lot with hand-painted murals of Miami sports mascots on the walls: Sebastian the Ibis and our famous teal dolphin greet guests before they enter. Inside this rare and much-appreciated sports mecca are pool tables, darts, cheap drinks, and loud music. The large, L-shaped bar itself is worthy of recognition; it is stacked to the rafters (literally) with every drink imaginable. There is no over-the-top sleekness or repetitive chain branding; this place stays true to its watering-hole allure. Read more about this Miami bar or club >>
