I finally found a bar in South Beach with a nice chill vibe. It was busy when we arrived but…read morefortunate to find a table to sit down and sip on some drinks. The staff here was also very welcoming and friendly. I tried their Mamey Swizzle and instantly fell in love. It came with rum, Mezcal, mamey-ginger puree and Jamaican bitters. We had mojitos during our dinner and some more mojitos at another bar that I didn't have that great of a vibe. So it's fair to say we had enough alcohol to call it a night, but this Mamey swizzle was so delicious I had to order another one. We'll be in Miami later this month and you can bet your ass that I'll be returning for some more of their Mamey swizzle.

Hidden Gem with Speakeasy Vibes! We've visited Trader Vic's…read morelocations all over the world (because you have to have a Piña Colada, right?!), but this one was a true hidden gem tucked away inside the Esmé Hotel. Loved the speakeasy vibes, the DJ spinning great music, and the super cool bartender who made the experience even better. The drinks were creative and fun, and the bartender was incredibly helpful in guiding us to the perfect choices.

Past its door is an oasis of good mixology and deep house music. The bartender made an artistic preparation of a well blended mai-tai, and the drink was nicely garnished as well. They have a few couches and tables to relax, but why not enjoy the house music beats on the dance floor? Yes the space is cozy but it was a great throwback to my clubbing days of yore. Highly recommend!

Why I'll go back: Solid cocktails in space with a low-key, loungey vibe…read more You HAVE to order: pick your poison Tony's Tip: no food here. Prep accordingly. Down the street from Stubborn Seed and around the corner from Carbone, you'll find a cocktail bar mid-block that is so understated it will actually pique your curiosity. Is this place open? What's in there? What's up with that name? Yes, it's open - and very late! Inside, you will find a wide variety of cocktails and a smoky coolness waiting. And the name? Dang! - I forgot to ask. Homework for my next visit. Following an early dinner, the lady and I enjoyed a couple of drinks around 8:30. We were the only ones in the place, which still felt cozy. Learned a lot about the group that owns this spot from our friendly bartenders. Drinks were good, the playlist matched the loungey vibe, and the prices were in line with what you'd expect (gratuity included). Overall, a nice early nightcap. We did pop our head in last year around 10:00 p.m., and the place was ramping up. I've no doubt it's a great scene the later you get.

We were wanting a few appetizers and drinks before meeting with friends for dinner so we stopped in. So happy we did! It had just opened for the day and only a few other couples ahead of us. We were greeted and sat immediately by the host. Our waitress greeted us with a smile and recommended a few great cocktails and oysters to start. We took her advice and added the Tuna Crudo, which was FANTASTIC, the Beet Deviled Eggs, EGGCELLENT!

Pretty cool to know that they have been rated as one of the 50 best bars in the WORLD. That's a pretty big achievement to accomplish. Parking can be tricky, you may find street parking.
