    Pros: Excellent service, chill vibe, the bartenders were attentive and very accommodating with drink preferences (as far as sweetness and spice level). Cons: They must be having plumbing issues, the good thing is that they have a plan (spray and open the door to air out the place), but for a bit the smell was pungent, we were gonna leave but opening the door really helped.

    Mannn we had a ball in Better Days the other night! Good drinks, the staff there are amazing and the vibes were immaculate. Shoutout the DJ for giving us free shots! I'll def be back!

    I have been coming to this bar on and off for many years and it is a Brickell staple. It is super centrally located, we were able to walk here tonight from the restaurant. We ate dinner at and catch the rest of the Heat game on the singular tv adjacent to the bar. They have a very good drink menu, with lots of different kinds of seltzers, which is often my drink of choice after a big meal. I tried a tequila-based seltzer, Chido, and I liked it. The prices are not too unreasonable even though it's a Brickell, and the vibe gives an eclectic authentic atmosphere. I do miss when they had a pool table though! It's not very big, so we were lucky to find some spots by the bar and we were very happy they were showing the game. The bartender was quick and attentive and the music was good. I love the spot and I will of course be back again soon.

    There's always better days ahead, if you want a relaxed game night or simply a fun time with your best buddies. This is the place to be! Great low dim lights ambiance and excellent straight to the point service.

    Place went downhill. Only one bartender gives a crap. The odds that you get her is low because she takes her time. The head bartender (I think) cut the bathroom line to do something with some girl that could barely walk straight. He threatened to kick everyone out who complained. This place is no longer a chill vibe. It's a "watch your wallet" place. Go to Dom's.

    Great place to chill with friends and family. This is a after hours spot too. Pools table was easy to get in line and play.

    It's a vibe! Came out with some friends, music on point and the crowd was fun. Casual place to unwind and have fun.

    Better Days is a fun bar located in Brickel, they are on the first level of a residential building and have a fun & pretty lively atmosphere while adhering to covid-19 regulations. They have a DJ with great selection, and he will gladly take requests... the bartenders are nice and have good recommendations of cocktails. I asked for ideas of cocktails to try and Mike suggested the Daquiry, not something I would usually try, but Mike said it would be the best ever. He was right, l liked it so much i ordered 2 :) I look forward to visiting again and trying new cocktails! Keep in mind they close at 12, due to the current curfew situation..

    The Lasseter is one of (I think) two bars within Julia & Henry's, the new food hall in Miami…read more There are a ton of options that look great. I think they fit Miami well, and are slight twists in classic drink options. Our bartender was awesome. She was super knowledgeable and helpful in making recommendations as we decided what to order, and you can tell she really put effort into making sure the drinks were good. The drinks were really good! My only complaint is the price. Of course handcrafted cocktails are expensive, especially in Miami, but wow. The drinks were really small, and had so much ice that they ended up being not very many sips at all. They were definitely good, but the very small size for almost $20 a drink was kind of outrageous.

No pressure !! :(…read more With such an amazing and innovative decor, dazzling bar and great vibes, my sibling, husband and I knew this was the place to be to enjoy ourselves with some drinks! The bar was lit, poppin' and vibrant. We were waiting by the end of the counter where they checked out other patrons near the sitting area. We were overlooked many times... I locked eyes with one of the bartender and she completely looked away from me.. several times :( took about 15 minutes and we reached our arms out and flagged bartender Reilly. Her greeting and attention was genuine so I was happy to get her. Unfortunately, she got busy and we got the initial lady that ignored us. She was not kind, not attentive and didn't really want to help us - she was very fake. With that being said, we had to remind her of our drinks after 20 minutes of placing the order, in which she responded with an attitude "it's being made. We're busy" -_- -_- :( the attitude was not needed. We watched others that came in before us being served. :( I was completely annoyed and upset. She didn't even bring the drinks to us like the other bartenders were doing, she made us get it. Poor service from this one bartender while the others were happy and servicing their patrons. After our first drinks, I noticed she spoke to her colleague and he came over and asked if we wanted to close out.. . Wtf kicking us out? We said no and he opened a tab. When she noticed we were ordering more, she was a bit more attentive. So wrong. Luckily, the drinks were delicious. Perfect. We did end up coming back to the Lasseter and got a gentleman bartender that was so kind and attentive and made our drinks even better! The attention to detail and love he made in my drinks, so that is why I decided to make make this a 3 stars rather than two. He saved this place. The toilet sitting area is very warm, not very air conditioned properly so expect to be a little warm especially after a couple of sips. It's also the walkway to an actual big restrooms for the whole building. The drinks are VERY pricy but the setting is perfect and makes up for it. Unfortunately, the service was not up to par. Disney priced drinks without the Disney customer service. Do I want to come back? Yes. Am I going to be picky with the vibes coming from the bartender and chose who to go to? Also yes. Hopefully, I can increase the rating.

Make sure to check them out. Drinks are not watered down but always well-balanced and potent. My go-to is their Old Fashioned, of course, but I have a new favorite called Urban Cowboy. It's made with Maple Bacon Infused Maker's Mark, vanilla cinnamon syrup, bitters and cedar smoke. So good! I also recently tried the Red Flag made with Cazadores Blanco, lime, agave, strawberry-infused Aperol, and topped with bubbles. So refreshing and tasty. You cant go wrong with any of their cocktails. The mixologist knows what they're doing and as a matter of fact, this place has won several competitions during SOBEWFF. It gets packed late at night, especially Friday and Saturday so get there at a decent hour so you grab a table or space by the bar. Will keep coming back!

We also partook in the Cuban Cigars that had such a delicious cilantro lime sauce paired with in an authentic Cuban cigar ashtray. The steak taco was also so scrumptious. It was served as a pair of two tacos with a shell that was a great texture that could be comparable to the steak itself. The bartender was super nice and approachable even when the bar began to fill up. It is noteworthy that due to more and more Miami construction, the view to the Miami river is undeniably obstructed.
