Live music

Quick bar service, friendly and kind everything you can want with a bartender. Ordered drinks, great to take out to patio and take in the view. Live music available pregame

Love the view from this place! You can see all the city lights and it's a beautiful view of Miami. We usually come to 601 to have some bites and drinks when we get to any concerts or heat games early. They have a nice bar with several TVs and plenty seating. You gotta order the carnita rolls. They are delicious! The order brings four of them with a side of guacamole and pico de gallo. The roll has shredded pork with beans and cheese. We have also ordered the chicken quesadilla that comes cuts in several small pieces and the chicken tenders here before as well. The food usually comes out very quickly. The drinks are well served and they played great music in the background. Ruben has helped us there several times and he is very friendly. PS: Keep in mind that they open at 6:30 PM.

601, American Airlines Arena, Miami, Florida.

601 is located behind the American Airlines Arena in the old Bongos location. During the 18 years the AAA has been open I frequented this location many times, when it was Bongos, so seeing it re opened brought back some great Miami Heat memories. 601 is unique as its connected to the stadium so one can go in for a drink or bite during a game without actually leaving the arena area and voiding your ticket. Came in during halftime of a recent game and was surprised and pleased in all aspects. The place is bright, clean, full of TV's and had a nice crowd and atmosphere. In addition to that the drinks were cheaper (and of better quality and more selection) than inside the area. 601 has a interesting looking 'serve yourself' type craft beer area with a few taps; however the bartender told us they weren't currently using it due to customers not being able to figure it out?! Pretty interesting concept so hopefully they work out the issues and re open it sometime soon. My friend and I sat at the bar and were greeted right away, ordered a couple of decent craft beers and ended up staying deep into the third quarter before returning to the arena. Took a quick look at the food menu which had a lot of enticing looking options but just enjoyed the beer on this occasion. Will definitely re visit when at another game.

First time visiting 61 after visiting the spot in many many years prior when it used to be bongos park downstairs in the garage walked around the side facing Bayside came up the stairs and there was the main entrance they open at 6:30 sharp we showed him our tickets walked in sat at the bar had many choices sushi and appetizers that were delicious can't complain about any of the foodsnd service was impeccable bartenders were attentive at all times three bartender serving us while we were waiting for the game to start will definitely come back. Also found out there was a special that I didn't know about for $40 including drinks and appetizers wish I would've known that that's the only negative thing I could say because we spent over $300 and drinks and many appetizers but overall we had an amazing time.

Cute lil place. They seen to have a nice schedule of weekly events. While on vacation my family and…read moreI had dinner here. It was their trivia night, I believe there was a $1500 pot if you win. Everyone seemed to be playing. We arrived to late to join. The place was packed yet there were only two servers. Our server was running around like a chicken with her head cut off. However she managed to keep up with out party of 9. There were times we were waiting for assistance however we could see she wasn't just sitting on her ass. We order burgers, flat breads, tenders and steak tacos. Steak tacos were horrible Burgers were delicious Flatbread were good Tenders definitely looked like they were frozen tenders from the grocer. The beverages were nice not too strong but not weak. We were kinda profiled however as a black person you get use to it. My husband and brother stepped out for a smoke break..although everyone else was still seated at the table. We watched security run out after them. We laughed cause they looked stupid. When security ran out there they pretended to be looking at something when they noticed they guys were right outside the door. Irish pub we didn't expect any less. However it was kinds funny how the guy darted out after them then aimlessly looked around after he realized they were smoking a cigarette ‍

I wanted to write this place off as a touristy haunt given its location and its typical South Beach…read moreprices, but we had a really good experience here. I realized that I had not actually been to this location since it was The Playwright (or whatever it was called) 4 or 5 years ago. The updated interior is nice - very "pubby" - and they offer a good variety of seating from bar seats to high-tops to couches. Two things here that were standouts: First, the burger is one of the best burgers I've had on South Beach. So much so that I'm craving it again this morning. They've done a good job with the menu in that it still has all those bar foods that you look for in a place like this, but they've put some thought into elevating a number of items (e.g. the short rib poutine!) Second, the service was great. Our server (sorry, can't remember his name - a nice guy from Kendall) was very friendly and provided excellent service. As many reviews mention, this is definitely a place to watch a game. While we weren't there for this purpose last night, the TV setup is great and I could def see myself camping out there with a few beers on a weekend afternoon. As someone who lives in the neighborhood, I'll be back again for sure.

This is the place to stumble into! Don't waste your time walking in front of everything looking in…read moreeach bar to see an empty row of barstools. This place is popping! Thursday night is Karaoke and the people in here can sing. You can tell this is a place the locals actually go to. I didn't try the food so I can't speak on that but the drinks were strong and the prices are good, you aren't going to be super overcharged like everywhere else. It's only a block off the beach as well! Tons of pool, video games, and two bars in two connected building. One side is a dance side the other side is a gaming fun side! The bar tenders were great and really took the time to make you feel welcomed! I will visit this place every time I come back to Miami!

We went here with my friends, and the food was great and the female bartender was super nice, but…read morewhen we went to play pool, you have to buy an arcade card. the arcade card was $5 for 15 "points" We got 15 points and the pool table cost 8 points. We went to the bar to explain that the pool table was broken and they it was fine. When we closed out they charged us $20 for one game of pool. I have been to high-end clubs where it's less than that. This nasty bar charged us $20 to play one round of pool when the pool table next to us that unfortunately was occupied only paid equivalent of $3. That is robbery and discrimination & will not be coming back here ever again. I recommend staying away from this bar. Maybe it has to do with the fact that we were only gay people in there. Avoid it all costs, I love a loud bar scene, but I couldn't even hear my friend standing next to me. The energy was not good with the exception of the female Argentianian bartender who is quite kind, but whoever we closed out with was quite rude. 0 stars if I could. We want our money back.
