    7/11/22 - Drink Menu
    Brie F.

    Woooah there the drinks we ordered were sweet and had us leaning like crackheads after a few sips. Barely made it back to our hotel without me slipping out of my TB chancleta . 3 stars because the kitchen was closed way too early in the day. It wasn't like we decided to get a drink after hours.

    Grilled chicken with pineapple slice

    Thanks to Yelp, I found this little gem. Located behind the Marseilles hotel, you can order food to go and immediately walk out a few steps to the beach to enjoy your meal. The bartender was so kind. Didn't catch his name, but he had a beard and was just so chill. Great service! The grilled chicken sandwich was juicy and the patty was large! It included a thick slice of grilled pineapple. The cheese fries really hit the spot!

    Amazing drink specials and guac on happy hour. We sat at the bar and had good service, we also sat outside and didn't have good service. The espresso martini was delish and the margs were too. Cute front patio to people watch in the afternoons.

    Avocado, corn & tomato salad. Added impossible patty. It's vegan!

    VEGAN REVIEW Ate here both at the bar & beach service. GREAT drinks. Friendly bartenders. As for the bar, fun vibe. We were there on a very busy weekend (hotel was hosting an event), so it was hard to flag down our server-- shout out to Amanda, the hardest working girl in South Beach! At the beach, I think it's just 1 server for the whole section! So again, our girl AMANDA was hustling. They do a pretty good take out set up for you. There are a handful of vegan options. Had the impossible burger & the avocado corn salad. The sweet potato fries are really good! If you are staying at the Marseilles, I definitely recommend hanging here at least 2 days-- one poolside, 1 beachside. So much amazing people watching, comfy seating & good music.

    To be honest, I wasn't expecting much when I ordered this sandwich on the beach. However, it was absolutely delicious! The chicken was grilled nicely and not dried out, and the pineapple, tomato and lettuce were all fresh. The Backyard itself is a very cute space with tables where you can order and dine. I opted for beachside service, which took a bit of time, but the food was excellent. I was pleasantly surprised, and I'd recommend checking it out if you're in South Beach.

    Oh I love this place. We stopped in for food and drink on our way to South Beach as we waited on friends to arrive. It is located behind Marseilles Beachfront Hotel and has a unique vibe. Although it is a bar it has some non traditional bar fare. I had the Crab sliders nd Truffle fries both were great. We also had wings at the table and BBQ chicken pizza. Only con was that the sweet potato fries were not seasoned and not really very warm. Service was good and drinks were very cold and refreshing. There is also a pools area and cabana type rooms.

    Great place located right across the beach! Pleasant atmosphere with different kind of entertainment. Also suitable for kids! Had a few drinks while waiting for check in our hotel. Service was great! If you like making nice photos, this place offers "interesting backgrounds" . Recommend!

    Semi private event at backyard bar.
    Tori G.

    This review is for the events team! We had a very short notice semi private event for 70 people and the process was incredible. The team was so positive, helpful, and seemingly glad to have us. From planning to day-of, all details were so easy and clear. The food was amazing and the cocktails were a hit for our group. Our group had an amazing time. I highly recommend working with the team on hosting an event at backyard.

    Great nostalgia and drinks but their gratuity practice is a serious problem…read more I stopped by Wet Willie's out of nostalgia during my most recent visit. Years ago I'd come here after the beach, sit on the balcony, people-watch, and cool off with a strong, frozen drink. In that sense, the place is exactly as I remember, with cold drinks on a hot Miami day and a fun atmosphere. Unfortunately, the billing experience completely changed how I felt about our visit. When the check arrived, I noticed the suggested tip percentages were unusual (around 7%, 8%, and 9%). I was planning to leave my normal 20% tip, but then the gentleman behind the bar explained that a 15% gratuity had already been added and the listed percentages would be additional. To be clear: I always tip, and I generally tip well. But adding a gratuity without authorization or clearly disclosing it up front is a big deal. A tip is supposed to be voluntary, and quietly including one, especially in a setting where you're already prompted to add more, feels misleading and wildly inappropriate. That part honestly overshadowed the visit for me. The drinks and the memories are still there, but check your bill carefully before paying. I enjoyed the nostalgia, yet this practice alone makes me hesitant to return. This practice of discretely tipping themselves is borderline theft.

    I have been going here for years. It's always been a great place to hang out and have some drinks…read more Nice cool atmosphere located in South Beach. Service was outstanding.
