    Boil fish, grits and Johnny cake
    Cleveland J.

    Love coming here for the boiled fish. I've tried other items, but I always come back to this. Delicious. Service is pretty good. Only negative is for the ambiance, they need to get that AC in order. It's hard to eat when you are hot.

    Stewed conch, grits, and Johnny cake
    Jane H.

    Everything was absolutely amazing. The only downsides to my visit were that our food came out sporadically. I and another person in my group were almost finished with our food by the time the plates for the others in my party received theirs. And the other was that I was told that the lady who makes the conch batter hadn't arrived yet, and that was the main thing on the menu I was craving and wanted to try. It was 12pm when my party dined. Would've given it 5 stars otherwise. So my advice would be to call ahead of time to make sure what you'd like on the menu is available.

    Fish and grits.

    Ancestor hands blessing the food! God bless this establishment. Nice hole in the wall and great value.

    Bahamian Pot specializes in Bahamian style dishes but is known for their conch & Boiled Fish with grits for breakfast. Boiled fish & grits is very good , clear savory broth with fish & grits. They also give you buttered bread. VERY GOOD. The prices are low and the quality is up there. What really impressed me was the courtesy & manners of everyone in there ! Everyone was super nice and made me feel so welcomed Definitely try this place out , you will NOT regret it. In the morning weekends go for Fish & grits ( before 11 am) or try their other dishes. ALL good

    History
    Katrella S.

    Ooooh this place was good. It is a small restaurant located in the cut in liberty city. They were previously located on 54th Street. The food still tastes the same. Staff is a little slow but they are responsive to your every need. The waitress we had asked if everything was ok and said yes sir ma'am and thank you. You don't get that often and it was very appreciated. While I perused the menu I noticed I could order salmon croquettes as a side. Yep this place was placed I. My salmon croquette competition for the best. They were full of fish with very little filler. Bahamian Pot is reigning!!!!!! The abundance of food was huge. I had boiled fish (traditional Bahamian dish), grits and Johnny Cake. This dish is only served on Saturday and Sunday and if you want fish head or wings you need to go early. I got there like 11:15 and they only had filets left. But two nice thick ones were in my bowl. This was the only meal I had for the day.

    Grouper sandwich with a side of coleslaw.
    Gene R.

    Great grouper sandwich and the coleslaw is awesome. The trick is to put the coleslaw on the fish sandwich. Really nice and family-owned. Support local!!!

    Steamed conch meal
    Jeff A.

    Always looking for something different, I stopped in to this place for a bite to eat and was pleasantly surprised by the warm service and incredible food. Not knowing what to order, I asked my server what she recommended and I received an incredible meal. Steamed conch in light tomato sauce, peas and rice, a slice of a macaroni (and cheese) loaf, and green beans. I suspect that all was fresh except for the beans. Delicious!

There's not really a server--you order and they text you when it's ready. Then you come pick it up and go to your table. But the cashier lady was very nice and helped me decide what to get.

Definitely a great spot to hang out with family and friends, enjoy amazing vibes, and have great food and cocktails. My only tip: come early when they open!

The restaurant itself is spacious, with plenty of seating both inside and outside. The atmosphere was lively and energetic, and the place was packed when I visited. Be prepared to wait, but trust me, it's worth it. The drinks were another highlight. They were sweet, strong, and complemented the meal perfectly. DJ Bre kept the vibe going all night with a great mix of music that added to the overall experience without overpowering the conversation. Great food, great drinks, and great energy. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm craving Jamaican food in Miami.

The vibe of the space feels like they brought in the murals of wynwood to their interior design. The music selection was rap hit after rap hit, loved. We sat at the bar. Our server was Marcus. He was so helpful and attentive. Gave us his menu recommendations, which we followed suit. We ordered the duck dumplings and the sweet potato croquettes from the HH menu. From the regular menu, we ordered the bbq toro and the oxtail udon. The duck dumplings had a rich au jus, great. Our favorite app was the sweet potato croquette. Slightly sweet, a satisfying crunch, but soft in the center with tender brisket. The white bbq sauce and parm gave it a nice smoky nuttiness. Ordered another round, they were so good! The bbq toro had an amazing smokey flavor and a nice citrusy butter as the sauce. The cut was perfect. The oxtail udon was really hearty, and by far the best dish we had (though all the dishes were seriously incredible). It comes with a cured egg yolk, which they mix for you tableside. There was a good amount of oxtail in the dish and the udon sauce - bottle it for me please and thank youuu.

Sometimes less is more. I booked brunch for the Sunday after Valentine's Day. The reservation was confirmed, but then I found out they don't even open until 5 PM that day. How does a brunch reservation get confirmed for a time when the restaurant isn't open? I decided to give it another try this weekend and went at 5 PM to sit at the bar. The hostess told me there was a "Hungry Post" event happening. I asked about the price and she said it was $100 per person. Okay, fine -- but when I asked what the event included or what it was about, she seemed unsure and said it was "just a party" and that you just go in. No explanation of what was included, no specials, nothing. Charging $100 per person just to attend a "party" with no clear details feels odd and poorly communicated. I genuinely want this place to succeed because the food and drinks are great -- I just wish they would focus on that and improve communication and organization instead of trying so hard to be trendy.

Our waitress, Marcia from Venezuela, was friendly and enthusiastic about the menu and making sure our evening was fun. We started with mojitos and a Margo-no-rita. Sugar cane and mint leaves spill out of the top of the mojitos. My wife said she didn't miss the alcohol in the Rita. We moved on to ham croquettes and empanadas. The croquettes are flavor bombs with the lime salt sending them to the next level. The empanadas are good and full of meat filling. We had 4 different entrees and shared them. My smoked pork was a tad dry but the Smokey presentation offset the texture. We did have to move the smoker off the table as it got eye irritating. I would have also liked a plate to move everything to after the wow factor. (I should have asked for one). My wife's fried fish is served whole in chunky bites. Flavored well it was great on its own. She thought the chili oil sauce had an Asian flare which felt off theme. Our friends dishes were the flank steak (good size and flavor) which was cooked to his required doneness, and the Marabu Charcoal pork. Both dishes were delicious with their sauces. Marcia suggested a fiery sauce if we liked heat. We told her to bring it and it did not disappoint. Heat at all levels left a good lingering heat for minutes. It was good with everything. We skipped dessert as we were full and chose to window shop in the mall to walk off a full belly. Highly recommend, ask for Marcia and we will be back.
