Remember that they also provide kayaking paddle boarding, and canoeing which I highly recommend and then on your return kick back relax order some food and drinks and enjoy the beautiful sunset and atmosphere. Don't miss out!

I always come here for paddle boards and kayaks and eat here after I'm done. The food today was excellent, the service otherwise..... The waitress was nice but inefficient, they need to make a way for the system to work faster, and make the order take forever. Plus I asked her for water for my dogs and she forgot, I had to ask her 3 times until I got up myself and went for the water. We were the only costumer and we had to wait a long time for a burger and chicken bites... In general good, room for improvement. Will give it another try next time I'm around.

Service was not the best but I went to eat so I did not mind. the decoration is cute you get island vibes. They have so many choices from the menu to try as well as home-baked goodies. I will definitely be back.

Nothing pretentious, nothing overworked. Just solid, crave worthy dishes that remind you why simple food done well is hard to beat. The menu is dependable in the best way, with flavors that feel intentional and satisfying. Portions are generous without being over the top, and everything comes out the way you hoped it would. Service is warm, efficient, and welcoming, which somehow makes the food taste even better. It feels like a neighborhood spot even though people from all over Miami seek it out. Blue Collar is the kind of restaurant you recommend without hesitation and keep in your regular rotation. Comforting, consistent, and always a good idea.

The shrimp and grits were initially served a little warm so I asked for them to be warmed up. They came back piping hot, which I appreciated. The side of sweet potatoes was yummy and I didn't even need to use the sauce that was served along with it. The Philly with fries was a large portion and the fries were delicious. There is a parking lot in the back but looks limited.

Pinch Kitchen & Bar is one of those spots that deserves a review, It's a true neighborhood staple…read morein El Portal and honestly, Miami doesn't have enough places like this anymore. You walk in and immediately feel that local, unpretentious energy that's been missing from a lot of the scene. Do I love that it's on Biscayne? Not really. But the food more than makes up for it. For a bar-style environment, the food is consistently very good. Not just "good for a bar" ... like its actually good. The burger is a must (im pescatarian but my friend said it was delicious!) and their Eggs Benedict at brunch is easily one of my favorites in the area. Pair it with a Bloody Mary and you're set. their happy hour pricing is refreshingly reasonable, which is rare around here. I was talking to one of the bartenders and found out even their bread is made in-house. That kind of consistency and care, especially at these price points, is not easy to maintain and you can feel it in the food. It seems that their leadership (owner or manager, not totally sure) has always been present when I've gone and brings a great energy to the space. It trickles down to the staff and the overall vibe. You feel welcomed!!! I this is the kind of place that deserves real support. It's local, it's consistent, it's affordable, and it actually feels like a community spot -- something Miami desperately needs more of.

While driving along Biscayne Boulevard, I searched Apple Maps for nearby brunch options, and Pinch Kitchen appeared just two blocks ahead of us. We were greeted with a big smile and warm welcome by Jonathan who also happened to be our server. The restaurant is small and quaint but the staff is very friendly and attentive. We started with the Focaccia Bread which was really delicious and I was told that it was made in-house so a big thumbs up to freshly baked bread of any kind! The drinks were really good too, I enjoyed an Espresso Martini which was yummy. For my meal I tried the Pasta Pomodoro, which was perfectly al dente and again, SUPER Delicious. My husband had the Pinch Burger and requested it Medium Rare. It was cooked to perfection. Sadly, we were much too full to try any desserts. Next time I'll start with dessert and work my meal backwards! LOL

I entered this establishment to purchase food for my granddaughter and her friend. I asked for the lemon pepper to be on the side for one order. After paying, a second cashier asked me if I wanted lemon pepper. When I told her I had asked for one on the side, she gave me attitude and said I would have to pay for that. I asked why there was a charge for what was supposed to be. One would have thought that I asked for her next born child. She was so rude that had to ask what I did to deserve such attitude. She then cursed at me and said I needed to make up my mind. At that point I told her I had no interest in arguing with a child, I am 63, and that her customer service skills needed to be worked on. Her energy was so negative that a Spanish (only) speaking lady understood what was going on. When her daughter asked her, in Spanish, she was able to tell her based on energy alone. I did not mean to write a dissertation, but the energy coming from the 2 cashiers was the worst I have ever experienced and I will NEVER visit this location EVER again. To make matters even worse, the young cashier followed us out of the store and continued to say unkind things to us. May God bless her anyway. My Sister had her own negative experience and will write her own review. Seeing the overall rating already on this site, I have to question if the owners really care about the level of customer service in this store. The worst EVER.....

I ordered the NY Strip Steak cooked medium, and it came out exactly how I wanted a nice crust on the outside, juicy inside, and full of flavor. The broccoli was fresh and bright, and the mashed potatoes had that perfect homestyle texture. Shoutout to Kiko, the Dominican bartender who took my order super friendly, attentive, and made sure everything came out just the way I asked. Great service goes a long way, and he definitely delivered. Overall, a solid spot for good food, cold drinks, and easygoing service. I'll definitely be back.

The ambiance was really solid and the service was great. Our server was friendly and gave some good recommendations. For food, I ordered the birria quesadilla and the Voodoo Cajun pasta with chicken and shrimp. Both were really good, but the Voodoo Cajun pasta was definitely my favorite. It had a nice Cajun kick and the chicken and shrimp combo worked perfectly together. Super flavorful and honestly one of the better pasta dishes I've had at a place like this. The birria quesadilla was also really good crispy, cheesy, and packed with flavor. I also tried two beers that were recommended, including an IPA, and both were great choices. If you're into beer, they obviously have a huge selection so it's a good place to try something new. Overall, great food, great drinks, great service, and a really good atmosphere. I'd definitely come back.

World of Beer 1 star…read moreand that's only because the servers were kind. I stopped by World of Beer yesterday and honestly... it was a disappointment from start to finish. The girls working the floor were friendly and doing their best, but the problems here go way beyond them. This feels like a corporate issue, not a staff issue. The food was cooked in seed oils, which already kills the quality and flavor. You can taste the heaviness and the cheapness. For a place that markets itself as a craft‑beer spot with elevated bar food, that's unacceptable. Then the check came and that's where it got worse. Corporate is nickel and diming customers with extra charges, little add‑ons that don't go to the servers and don't improve the experience. It feels sneaky, and it leaves a bad taste in your mouth before you even walk out. The staff is paying the price for decisions they didn't make. They're trying to be nice, but the system they're working under is broken. Overall: Good people, terrible corporate practices, low quality cooking oils, and a bill padded with nonsense. Not worth it.
