    Brisket and waffles and tacos
    Luis F.

    We went for Taco Tuesday and they had all the proteins available, so we ordered the brisket and waffles, tostones, and of course the tacos. Everything was excellent. The tacos were stuffed and not skimpy at all, and the brisket was absolutely delicious--tender, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The restaurant has that true hole-in-the-wall, Florida Keys vibe that makes it feel laid-back and authentic, and the owners are genuinely great people. If you're planning to go, I'd recommend checking their hours since they close early on some days, and definitely ask what proteins they're offering that day. Highly recommend.

    We were very lucky to find this local hole in the wall hidden gem with a very unique atmosphere with every space on the wall covered with something interesting or unique that made it fun to sit and to enjoy looking around. This is a very small place with not much seating. They have a large grill/smoker outside and they cook outside but also cook inside and they serve inside. Our waitress Lu Lu knew all the beers and the menu very well and was very helpful in helping us make our decision on what to order. She was always available and very friendly. Their food is amazing! We started with their homemade smoked salmon dip with homemade pita chips; incredibly! We ordered the smoked wings, smoked ribs and smoked brisket and shared everything around the table and nothing disappointed us. The meat was tender, perfectly seasoned and was bursting with so much flavors. We tried a few of their local beers that were served cold and in a cold glass. We finished with some deep-fried Oreos that were so unique and amazing. We had no problems with parking. The owner Karl was extremely friendly. He was saying hello to all his guests. I am looking forward to returning and trying more of their food.

    I came to Hate Mondays Tavern for the first time around lunch time. It was a little difficult to find the parking entrance from the road but once I saw the smoker I knew I was in the right place. The interior is quite small but is a very lively with a bunch of wall and ceiling decorations. The staff were super friendly and helped me place my order. I went with the brisket and the ribs as recommended by them. The brisket was unfortunately not very juicy and a little chewier than I expected. The honey mustard sauce that was drizzle on top of it was very tasty though! The ribs had great texture and flavor. I definitely want to come back and try some of their burgers as a lot of people were ordering them!

    Variety of beer selection

    This place was on my list for over 6 years, but their schedule is limited, and every time we happened to be in south west Kendall it was closed or closing within minutes (3pm-4pm). Small, little hole in the wall interesting place. The food was mid, checking this off my list one and done. We ordered a variety, Mondays Burgers ( was told good), pulled work (was told ok) and the brisket platers (was ok), only sides potato salad and coleslaw (both good). I personally ordered the brisket, that's my go to especially in a place like this which had been very hipped for me, I was disappointed, the meat was lean, flavors was good and the Carolina sauce over it was also good it was swirled cold over the meat and it put me off. They had a good variety of canned beer. Give it a try yourself, if I were you, and form your own opinion.

    Brisket loaded fries
    Loraine D.

    04/2024 Rating: 4.5 Found out abou this place through Yelp and Instagram. If you're not from the area, you won't even know it's there unless you follow where the smoke is coming from. Located within the warehouse business near Costco, parking is small and can be difficult. I recommend coming early. RESTAURANT: The grill master does this magic outside. Inside is actually pretty small. You are greeted by a small counter that gives you a sneak peak of what is happening behind the scene. Seating can be limited so I recommend coming right when they open. Every single wall is adorned with trinkets from military mementos, movies, sports and more. There are so many things to see and discover. Furnitures consist of wooden tables and chairs. I did find that some of the booth/bench is a bit far from the table. The restaurant is clean, especially the restroom. It can get loud in there but the vibe is overall a really good time. SERVICE: The grill master himself said hello to us as we entered and thanked us sincerely as we left. The serving staff were also wonderful. She answered all of our questions and made suggestions that we thoroughly appreciated and enjoy. The food came out in a timely manner and she made sure to check on us throughout our meal. They crew seems to enjoy working with one another and it was nice to see that they are like one big happy family. FOOD: Now, for this visit, we came specifically for the oxtail, baby! I saw it on instagram and I was like..."I must have it." I am used to the Cuban style rabo encendido and the Filipino peanut dish called Kare-Kare so I was curious where this dish would fall. We also had the brisket loaded fries and chicharon. Ok so the chicharon was not what I expected; I was expecting you know the usual crispy pieces of pork belly with that crackling skin. This chicharon were defibitely pieces of pork belly but they are thicker and juicy, not crispy but delicious nonetheless. The brisket loaded fries was just a party with that huge plate of skinny fries, with tender pieces of briskett and pico de gallo and avocado crema looking sauce and topped with bbq sauce. It was so good, I highly recommend. Then comes the braised oxtails which came out in a nice large plate on a bed of white rice with garbanzo beans...a little too much beans but I ate them all. The oxtail was so tender, falling off the bone goodness. The flavor is a lot more subtle compare to the Cuban version but that sauce was saucing. I am grateful they gave big chunks instead of just little pieces. We left nothing on that plate. Overall, this was a wonderful experience. Everything we tried were delicious and I was glad the school was out on a Tuesday because Oxtails were on available on Tuesdays. The pricepoint is a bit high but considering it is meat cooking literally right there as you enter, it can't get any fresher than that. Love this locale business. Highly recommend to see the bearded chef. We will definitely return.

    Came here with my friend for lunch , was recommended here this bbq spot by a coworker I was not disappointed - def try the Mac n cheese and if you can mix with the pulled pork even better Great spot make sure to check it out

    Tomahawk steak

    Every time we go there, we leave more than satisfied. The service and atmosphere is always welcoming and the food!!! OMG, the food is to die for. Words will never do this place justice. You gotta come on in and see for yourself. Be it for their amazing BBQ meats or for the mir breakfast. You can't go wrong. Only downside if you can call it so is the space. It's not the biggest of places but then again, I believe this adds to the genuine atmosphere I always experience.

    Chicken & Waffles
    Paola G.

    I love Hate Mondays. I go on a regular basis, yet I had yet to try their breakfast. Today was that day & of course they did not disappoint ! I had the chicken & waffles ( I chose spicy ), the chicharrones, the loaded brisket fries & my brother got the skillet that had veggies, potatoes, sausage, brisket with an egg on top & toast. Delicious ! The Chicharones I think were my fav the sauce had this little kick to it & you want to dump everything in it lol & as always the service was top notch. Everyone is just so friendly & helpful.

    Looking for a good burger? You found your place. I was blown away with the quality and flavor of…read moretheir burgers. First off, you walk in and place your order at the counter. You're then given a buzzer and can take a seat to wait for perfection to be made. The restaurant itself is really nice. The dark decor makes for a sassy burger bar. Once you're order is ready, head back up, grab your tray and prepare to be transported to flavor town. I went with the Crispy Truffle burger and omg... Amazing!!! I can't believe it took me this long to try it. The meat was cooked to perfection and the combo of the truffle sauce and crispy onions made for the perfect bite. As a side I tried the LBB taters which were sooooo interesting. Slighty spicy from the jalapenos and slighty sweet from the maple syrup. So good! Also shoutout to the staff! They're walking around making sure everything is up to standards. Love that they're watching out for the customers and take pride in their work.

    La Birra Bar is a great spot for a casual and quick lunch. I went for the Golden Burger with fries,…read moreand it definitely delivered. The flavor and overall food quality were excellent. The burger had that classic local bar feel but slightly elevated, which makes it stand out without trying too hard. The price is on par with the quality you get, so you leave feeling like it was worth it. It is not over the top fancy, just a really solid burger done right. I would recommend it for quick lunches or casual hangouts when you want something satisfying and reliable. Definitely a spot I would go back to.
