We've been here before and it never disappoints! The ambiance is always great! All of the servers are great! Federico, Alex, Bianca and Jamie are outstanding! Every item on the menu is delicious! I'd definitely recommend this bar!!

I love this place! Dropped in to see the spurs beat the knicks in game 3. Had the amazing buffalo chicken dip (filled with literal chunks of chicken breast-yum) and the chicken tenders with tots were great! I also thought the food actually improved so that was a nice addition. Andrea, was our server, who is new to The Brightside. She was great and made the experience nice. Another 5/5 experience with great service, food and ambiance. Check them out. Support local. Enjoy!

Nestled on the corner of Coral Way, If you want to go to a place that reminds you of Cheers, stop wasting your time and walk into the Brightside. You will find some of the friendliest bartenders around, and the owner is super friendly - walking around, talking to customers, making drinks. The food is pretty tasty too - definitely recommend their loaded tots. Pro tip, there is parking in the back. Second pro tip, try their house made green tea I am low-key obsessed with this bar. There are very few places in Miami that are "chill" and this is one of them. Oh, and if you give them a sticker, they will place it behind the bar for you.

Great little spot. Definitely a nice hangout and bar to watch sports and eat. There's game in the back and themed nights. Food was good but pricey at 18$ a wrap, but what isn't nowadays. Fries were crispy but not enough lol service was GREAT! Our waitress handled everything in a crowded room and even managed our order correctly without needing to note it down. Drinks were about 12$ so that definitely evened out. Everything was clean and music was playing some hits.

I had this sandwich and a soccer themed Guinness, so satisfying! This is a great neighborhood bar 5

This place is everything you want in a neighborhood bar and more. From the moment you walk in, you can feel how genuinely welcoming it is. Everyone from the staff to the owners to the regulars makes you feel like you belong there. It's rare to find a spot where the energy is this consistently warm and friendly. The service is always on point and besides the drinks, the food is so good, way beyond what you'd expect from a bar. The nachos are my absolute favorite... perfectly loaded, flavorful, and honestly addictive. Whether you're going for a casual drink, a bite to eat, or just a good vibe, this place never disappoints. It's one of those rare spots that truly feels like home.

Most of our drinks were weak, but good for the most part. The martinis I had was strong. The fries were the best bar fries ever. I loved them. They were very crispy. They were well seasoned. the Bavarian pretzel was salty and soft, and both dips were really good with a good level of spice. The wings were really good overall I really liked the Cajun barbecue flavor and the buffalo over having them dry. The pizza rolls were so good and unexpected. I love them way too much. They reminds me of mozzarella sticks. Not oily at all. Very crispy. The inside is very dive bar and was a little loud, but it was overall very enjoyable.

Nestor C.

Awesome local bar we came across while waiting for dinner at the restaurant across the street. So glad we came here. Good vibes, good music, good people. The highlight, for me, they have a laser foam image engraving machine for your beer!

Cristina R.

The brightside is the best neighborhood bar they are very welcoming and a great place to watch games like the panthers, Olympics soccer basketball they are a true sports bar. The drinks are great. I love the chili and buffalo chicken dip I usually order both every time I visit. They are both served with chips. If I want to eat a meal I order the Cesar chicken wrap or the cheese burger. The bartenders are super nice and truly what keeps me going back! I recommend for sports games!

Aileen R.

Food was excellent. I had the Beef on Weck roast beef. Yummm it was delish, but be sure to ask for both sauces on the side. Tator tots were on point, crunchy. Service was great, came over a couple of times and chit chatted with us. The noise level was good, perfect for conversation.

Rafael B.

Neighborhood gem. Staff, bartenders were all amazing and very welcoming. Made you feel at home. Drinks were amazing and food was delicious. Highly recommend visiting especially to watch sports. Real cool vibe , music on point and just a chill vibe.

Aj B.

Local bar. Amazing food. Buns made in house. Cold beer and every game on every tv. This is the game day spot.

Jaquie M.

Second time around to catch Karaoke on Saturday night - this time for my sister's birthday! What a fun night we had! Ate before so I can't comment on the food but the drinks were great and $14 martinis are a win for the location and great vibes! The owner came by and checked on us a few times. You feel seen and waiter was friendly and attentive as well. You feel like you're at college town in the US. Can't wait to come back for more singing and dancing! Plenty of free parking in the back.

SPORTS FANS MUST GO (and non-sports fans)! I love The Brightside ! I'm a frequent yelper/google reviewer and I felt the need to emphasis this bar because the food, ambiance, staff and drinks were 100/10 . For food: Anything is delicious but the Beef on Week is the house special, secret ingredients from the owner himself. I would highly recommend and they won themselves a 'usual' customer. read more

This bar has quickly become one of my favorite places in Miami. I live close to Homestead and have been looking for a Buffalo Bills Backers Bar for so long where I don't have to drive 2 hours to get to. And Oh have I found the place. They check off ALL the boxes, friendly staff, Great food (I haven't tried a bad dish yet), and what an amazing ambiance/atmosphere on game day! Every member of the staff I have been in contact with have been such a pleasure to deal with.... It definitely feels like a Midwest or western New York wholesome vibe. Hannah and Mike (Owners) have a real gem here and my wife and I could not have found a better place to spend some of our Sundays at. I've been there a hand full of times and still have not tried the beef of weck I hear so much about. It's going to be my mission to try it next time I'm there. I definitely recommend this place for any type of occasion,, casual, fun, friends, family, whatever! Go Bills! read more

A great neighborhood sports bar with food over and above the standard food in sports bars. Hell, I can go just for the food even if all TVs are off. The ambience, the TVs, the staff, our waiters, the food.... Exceptional!! . Its obvious the owners are big Bills fans, which I am NOT after having been to Buffalo for a couple of games and having to deal with difficult and unfriendly mafia fans. But Brightside is somehow, in its own magical way, making me more sympathetic for the Bills. I even-routed for the Bills against the Chiefs to-my disbelief. Buffalo deserves a Lombardi. Amazing what a good staff, restaurant and great food can do. Lets Go Buffalo!! As everything in life, there is always a brightside to any preconceived notions. Tell the Don, it wasn't personal. It was only business. read more

The beef on wick is as good as you can get in Western New York. Most of the reviews are pretty honest. This is a neighborhood bar with typical bar food, which is nice to find in Miami. As to ratings, they should be based on that expectation. We liked the environment, it was friendly & lively. I saw the fish & chip sign & wondered about it but we were not here for that. We came for the beef on wick & we're not disappointed. It is a 20 mile ( one way) drive for us, we will be back. Parking is not always easy but with perseverance you can find a spot. read more

But respectfully... this is the Grove, not Miami Beach. Food didn't do much to change our minds. The mushroom croquetas were easily the winner (3.8/5), but the patatas bravas (1/5) were a miss and the pan con manchego had us thinking... wait, we could've made this at home. Level 6 is beautiful, lively and probably best enjoyed with a cocktail in hand while the sun goes down. Come for the atmosphere and the conversation, the food doesn't need to be the main event.

To be clear, these were two separate drinks, and his beer was not intended to be used in my michelada. My michelada was served already mixed with a beer I hadn't chosen. In my opinion, the beer should be served separately so customers can adjust the strength and flavor to their liking. On top of that, the drink barely resembled a proper michelada. It was missing key ingredients, such as Worcestershire sauce, and tasted overwhelmingly salty, with far too much Clamato. The presentation was also sloppy and unappealing, as you can see in the photos. When I asked a simple question about how the michelada was prepared and served, the staff members were extremely rude, especially the dark-haired woman, whose unpleasant attitude made me feel very uncomfortable. I understand that prices are high, especially in Miami these days, but that does not excuse poor service or disrespectful treatment. Overall, it was a very unpleasant experience, and I would not recommend this place. If you plan to visit Regatta Grove, don't expect particularly friendly or welcoming service.

As we eaited the music played everything from old school hip hop, R& B, to classic French tunes, it was wonderful.

This poolside bar offers a shaded area with bar stools as well as poolside service. Cocktail menu is small, but for a reason. Ingredients were carefully selected and you can tell effort and thought were put into crafting the drink selection. I sampled 3 of the crafted cocktails on the menu. Each drink stood out and had its own unique flavor profile. They are light, but strong at the same time. These are excellent drinks if your looking to hang by the pool or share some laughs with friends while taking in the breathtaking views of coconut grove, the ocean, and Miami epic skyline. We did order 2 appetizers, the conch fritters and hummus. The conch was crispy and perfectly cooked inside, the aoli sauce complimented it perfectly. It came with 6 fritters and they went down very well. Not greasy or under filled. The hummus was delicious and the baked pita bread complimented it well. Sip Sip is an oasis in the desert.

This will be one of my go to spots for whenever I go to Miami! I was looking for a more casual sports bar vibe instead of the typical Miami bar. The location is great and has plenty of parking...a rare sight in Miami! The drinks and food were amazing! All the ingredients tasted fresh and just what I needed for the day. We had the chicken wings that had the right amount of heat followed by Beef on Weck! That sandwich was seasoned perfectly and when dipped into the horseradish, amazing. Saving the best for last, the service! All the staff seemed to love what they do and always checked in to make sure everything was good and if we needed anything. Will definitely be stopping by next time I'm in town for another drink and a few bites! Thanks for a much needed neighborhood bar! read more

I recently had the pleasure of dining in at The Brightside and I must say, it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The service was simply amazing - attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable staff made us feel welcome and well taken care of throughout the evening. The food surpassed all expectations, with each dish expertly prepared and bursting with flavor. From appetizers to desserts, every bite was a delight to the senses. I highly recommend trying the Beef on Weck sandwich & Pop's Key Lime Pie! The atmosphere is top-tier, with elegant decor and a cozy ambiance that sets the perfect mood for a memorable experience. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply looking for a great meal/quick drink this restaurant delivers on all fronts. read more

The Brightside is a gem in our local neighborhood and it's not just the drinks that shine here. From the moment you step in, you're greeted with an inviting atmosphere that sets the perfect tone for a great night out. Mike and Bianca are the dynamic duo behind the bar, always ready with a smile and a recommendation tailored to your tastes. The staff's genuine warmth adds an extra layer of comfort to the experience. And let's not forget about the food - it's not your typical bar fare. The menu boasts delicious options that pair perfectly with your drink of choice. Whether you're stopping by for a quick drink after work or settling in for a night of fun, The Brightside never disappoints. Jami & Danny read more

I recently went to the Brightside for a birthday party and I must say, I was thoroughly impressed! The food was delicious (we had the buffalo chicken sammy, beef on weck, and chicken wrap - all very good). The ambiance was fun with multiple tvs so all the sports games were covered. But what really stood out to me was the service. The staff were incredibly attentive and friendly, always checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. It really made the experience that much more enjoyable. I will definitely be returning to the bar in the future and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great place to grab a drink and bite to eat. read more

We had a great first-time experience at the restaurant, and it lived up to the hype. I ordered the beef on weck, and my wife had the chicken Caesar wrap. We were initially concerned that the portions wouldn't be filling, but they were perfectly satisfying. For lunch, we also took advantage of a special that offered two dollars off each salad and sandwich. The service was outstanding, with both the server and the manager attending to us. Being the only customers at the time likely contributed to the exceptional attention. The restaurant had a clean, welcoming ambiance that felt like a relaxed college pub. read more
