I would highly recommend this place for dancing to live salsa music. They have a large bar and plenty of seating. However, you must reserve a table (at least on the weekend). We had a large party and despite our reservation we were still given a smaller table than what we asked for, and we just had to make it work. My friends ordered some food. I didn't try it, but they didn't complain. I think what really shines at this place is the atmosphere, live band, and dancing. It is an older crowd, but all in all, a fun night out. They also charge a cover charge- $20. They told us the band would start at 10pm but they didn't start until midnight, which was a bit annoying. But they played music in the meantime. Mostly salsa and a bit of reggaeton.

I completely recommend this place. It's a restaurant/ bar and nightclub. If you're trying to get your dance on to some salsa and merengue with that venezuela feel. This is your place. They had a live band when I went. Omg it was blast. Went with my mom & sis. There's a $10 cover per person. Tables need to be reserved. They do serve food pass 9pm which is great. We sat at the bar and had some drinks and some food while we waited for the place to get more crowded and people start dancing. Once the band went up folks were out of their seats dancing away. We paid for our bill (which was pricey) and went to the dance floor. The bill came out to $140 with tip for5 Cuba libres and the empanada meal. I was baffled because we spent about that earlier on our meals & drinks and had way more stuff. Overall I will go back and I do recommend for dancing and having a great time. Everyone is as very nice also. We danced with some ladies who were dancing alone and we also got taken out but some gentlemen throughout the night . Definitely go to shake a leg. Be mindful of your bill. Might be better to get a bottle.

Reservation confirmation which was not accepted by the restaurant

made reservation and drove 30 mins for nothing. they don't have enough room to accommodate my reservation even though it was confirmed by yelp... didn't find me a seat with my wife, we had to start driving around to find a place for lunch. waitress was rude and not helping at all to accommodate my request. find a better place

It's a place for people over 50 years old. Not for young crowd. But if you like dancing salsa it won't bother you.

It's fun without feeling gimmicky, and the food holds up just as well. The smash burger is excellent, the wings are crispy and perfectly seasoned, and there's nothing wrong with washing it all down with an ice-cold beer. If you're there for weekend brunch, things get even more interesting. Grab a mimosa or sangria and, if you're feeling ambitious, take on the 17-inch monster breakfast burrito "Bases Loaded Burrito". Finish it in 20 minutes and your picture lands in their virtual Hall of Fame. I was smart enough not to try. For sports, this place is hard to beat. TVs are everywhere, and there's a huge outdoor watch-party setup. Big shoutout to Nacho behind the bar, Paul, the mastermind in the kitchen, and Roger for keeping the games covered. If it's game time and you're in Wynwood, Grails is the place.

The speakeasy atmosphere is outstanding--walking through the iconic red phone booth feels like stepping into another era, only with much better bourbon. Victoria was an absolute rockstar. She took some fantastic photos of our group (which is no small feat after a couple of perfectly made Manhattans), anticipated everything we needed, and somehow managed to make us feel like regulars on our first visit. Speaking of Manhattans... they're exactly the way we like them: balanced, boozy, and dangerously easy to order "just one more." Pair that with a great cigar, comfortable seating, and an atmosphere that somehow feels both upscale and relaxed, and you've got one of the best spots in Miami to unwind. We came for a drink. We stayed for the cigars. We left wondering if we should install a red phone booth at home. We'll definitely be back--and hopefully Victoria will still be there to remind us that "one more Manhattan" is always a questionable life decision.

The bartenders here are artist. The menu appears like a vintage book with history about each drink. But listen honey when I tell you these cocktails are Amaze! Just try anything or ask.to be surprised. Remy was our server and he is freaking awesome and has skills. He helped us choose our cocktails cause everything was sounding like a vibe. The food options sound delish and the sliders and pizza seemed to be a hit as we saw that mostly. We were here for drinks though and we stuck to it. Only down fall for us is that we aren't cigar smokers, so the room was filled with it as we didn't know its a cigar lounge as well, but to each his own. Come drink eat and ber merry!

It's located in the heart of Brickell close to Brickell City Centre and next to Talkin' Tacos. I've passed it many times and never been before. Our comedy show was at 9pm so we got there early and you enter a bar area with a small dance floor and DJ booth. The door guy told us to wait next to the doors by DJ booth. They opened the doors a little after 9pm and let us in. There's this whole other room in the back with tons of seating, a stage and bar area. Some of the decor felt a bit outdated, but it was still a cool vibe nonetheless. The space is so big and has so much potential for improvement, We snagged seating in the middle area. There were several cozy couples seating in front of the stage but 2nd row, we didn't want to get picked on the entire night. Lol. The two main hosts of the comedy show looked like they worked at Blackbird Ordinary as they had staff jackets on. They were in our opinion, the FUNNIEST!!! Everyone also got free shots with their tickets. Nice bonus! Lemondrop shots!!! Whew, it's been a hot minute since I did shots. Ha. After they started the show, they introduced several local or out of towner comedians and honestly, it was a good diverse crew of comedians. I wish we got a list of the comedians as I would like to check out their social media pages or follow them. Overall, we had such a good time and laughed so hard our faces hurt. This comedy show was like a hidden gem. Glad we found them and would love to come back and check out other comedians.

I find this disappointing as I always like to go to try different dishes from the standard menu. To me it shows that the restaurants that do a special menu are normally more innovative. Had I known this beforehand I would not have come. Having said that the food I sampled was decent enough. My appetizer was the Korean chicken which was plentiful. My main was the ribs. I was surprised to see that it was just that only meat. I expected there to have been a bit of a garnish or greens. Between the ribs and chicken my whole diet was meat. The dessert was two choices. I went with the chocolate cake. The hocolate cake slice was the smallest slice I've ever been served in a restaurant. I really liked the decor. I also really liked the music that was being played. Service was efficient. The ladies toilets had a damp smell. Overall I was disappointed and would not visit again.
