Yes, it's touristy, but it's where you go after dinner when you're not ready to go home and want to…read morebe entertained or dance. As soon as you walk in, the senses are going off. There's an intense dynamic of action throughout this joint- upstairs and downstairs. There's professional performers on the center bar top. Walk to the back and there's another live performance complete with more dancers and singing with a dance floor at the stage. What's upstairs? There is DJ dancing - popular high energy music. The drinks are definitely expensive, but that is to be expected in South Beach. The only complaint is the bartenders I visited on the bottom floor to the left bar in the back and upstairs in the DJ room looked like they did not want to be there. Perhaps, this place is too wild for a continuous eight hour shift? Who knows. The jovial atmosphere in this place makes you forget quickly though. I think I stayed here until 2am dancing my ass off. I had a colorful evening and would definitely return! - maybe the dinner and show experience?

I was very disappointed with my experience at Mango's. First, there was a $20 entrance fee just to…read moreget in. Then, when I received my bill, there was an additional $0.25 'health insurance' charge. The amount isn't the issue--it's the principle. Costs like employee health insurance should be built into prices, not added as surprise fees. To make matters worse, when I asked about the charge, the server couldn't explain what it was or why it was being added, so I left with more questions than answers. Between the cover charge, unexpected fees, and lack of transparency, the whole experience felt like a tourist trap. Customers deserve clear pricing and straightforward explanations of any charges before they're added to the bill.

It was super crowded, but that was expected given the people performing that night. The girls were a little overbearing, but I gave in to a very beautiful Hispanic girl and she took me back to VIP. When we get into this little room she asked if I wanted any shots and I said yes, she told one of the servers to bring us some shots and they brought a small tray of tequila shots. She had her back turned towards me before she gave me my shot, after that I don't remember anything. Im sure she put something in my drink. A buddy of mine was waiting for me and said after 15 mins the curtains were open but I was nowhere to be found. By the grace of God I somehow managed to get back to the place we were staying, but my wallet and phone were stolen. I can see how this club could be fun and exciting, and I was somewhat enjoying myself until this happened, but I just didn't have the best experience. If you go, just be cautious.

Basement is located inside The Edition hotel in Miami Beach. It's in the ground floor. It had been nearly a decade since I had been here and I'm glad to see it's alive and well. There's a bowling alley and an ice skating rink. I believe their nightclub is now closed? The bartender was super kind and helpful. Drink special cocktails were good and well priced. The other drinks were also good just a bit more expensive. The ice skating is not for everyone but definitely a fun addition if you dare to try! Definitely a fun vibe with good tunes playing. Would definitely come back again!

It's perfect for hanging out with friends or starting/ending a night. The drinks were really well made and you can tell the bartenders know what they're doing. Everything was balanced, flavorful, and fun. We had the My English Is Not Very Good Looking which was like a yummy dessert, and the Elegant AF which was delish. A cool spot with great energy and solid cocktails. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the mood for a fun night out.

It was…read morewell-organized with reserved tables in a separate upstairs lounge w/ our placards on table, and it was nice to know we don't have to keep eye out or keep looking for tables like regular clubs since we don't really drink. Alex our instructor was fun, engaging, and an intelligent instructor that broke the dances down for even beginners to follow easily. We first had bachata lesson at 8pm, followed by complimentary mojito and Cuban bites, then wrapped up with salsa lesson at 9:20pm. I wished salsa lesson was a full hour, followed by more fun salsa dancing with instructor dancing alongside (you know, cuz regular student folks won't keep dancing salsa on their own without pros' boosting presence) because afterwards everyone pretty much stopped dancing salsa after the last song after lesson ended. Then it was regular club time. Good vibe and we had fun. The wristband we got allowed free entry to the club downstairs so we could enjoy the cabaret performance and backstage live music band a bit too. Overall I would recommend Alex and Salsa Mia without any reservation for anyone with an open mind looking to have a good dancing time! Try it - don't be scared as there's no need to be! Gracias Alex!

I loved the setting - Mango Cafe is a vibrant and fun place - the class takes place in a side room on the second floor. We had 15-20 people, and the space was starting to get tight, but bearable. Appetizers were tasty, and enough for a couple of helpings. For the free drink, they accommodated the request for a virgin mojito. Includes a wristband for Mango Cafe entry after 10:00p (they close at 5:00a). Highly recommend the class, it's a great value.

As a lesbian, Twist is not a safe space. I had a very uncomfortable and frustrating experience…read more Women were either outright denied access to the bathroom or treated with hostility and suspicion when trying to use it. I personally went to two different bathrooms and encountered resistance both times, with staff being weird and dismissive about allowing women to use the facilities. When I was finally allowed to use the bathroom, the bathroom attendant was extremely rude, rushed me, and then demanded a tip. When I calmly told him that women should be treated better, he became aggressive and started arguing with me loudly, including switching to Spanish and escalating the confrontation. Despite this behavior, I still attempted to leave a tip afterward, which he refused while telling me not to use the bathroom again. Nothing physically dangerous happened, but the experience felt sexist, unwelcoming, and inappropriate, especially for a space that is supposed to be inclusive. I left feeling uncomfortable and disrespected and would not recommend this place to women or mixed groups. Don't forget about the fucking L!

Ordered roasted wings which were great! They said they've just updated their menu so it was pretty confusing. The manager on-site came and explained and also accommodated our requests.

Originally they had a list for women to enter free and we got the men $50 tickets. They then got rid of the free women list later and tickets had gone up at that point. We still wanted to go because back when we lived here, we really enjoyed this club. It's a fantastic space. I love their indoor space for dancing and outdoor space for chatting. The best venues have a great mix of both in my opinion. It was also great for our group because half of us danced inside and the other half talked outside. Getting in wasn't too much of a problem. Some of the girls in my party were also able to get in with white tennis shoes which was nice (they were still dressed up). There was a person at the front that kept making jokes about getting more money from us that I wasn't a fan of, but besides that, I really enjoyed our time here. It was a fun tech house set.
