    Molcajete
    Olga G.

    Barra Vieja is located on a busy corner in Doral and very close to a parking garage which makes it a convenient visit. I really enjoyed the service - from how they greet you to how they serve you. I loved the guacamole, it was fresh, very large portion and I could have been full just eating that. I didn't love molcajete. It was good but not great - too dry, too salty and not very Mexican. I'd try their tacos next time!

    Came with the fam to have a dual-birthday dinner for my cousin and my sister, and this did not disappoint! Was the first time for all of us and I really like when everyone at table is experiencing it for the first time together, definitely adds to the overall vibe/occasion. As we were walking up, they had nicely decorated patio tables, which we learned inside is where Happy Hour is available "all-day", which is music to anyone's ears! It was a Monday so there was plenty of room (we had a reservation either way), and noticed right away that the place didn't feel stuffy (high ceilings) and the decor was very nice. I chose a real nice booth to sit in which had me facing the huge blue bar wall. Aesthetically pleasing and didn't look cheap, which is a plus. My sister and I arrived first, so we went ahead with cocktails while we waited for our cousins to park and walk over. My sister went for traditional margarita but made it Mango, and it was great. I ordered the Mezcalita de Naranja and its was the bomb - I had 3. Would absolutely get again. Once the cousins arrived they went for a red sangria which looked dark and not exactly traditional, and another Mezcalita after tasting it. Thumbs up on the drinks, very well made. The food was very well portioned and everything was delicious. Aside from the entrees pictured we also did an order of steak quesadillas, toro taquitos (raw tuna), and some tequeños. Hard to say if one was really the standout but I chose to toro taquitos and the tuna was fresh, wasn't overly spicy and hit nicely with my drink. Quesadillas were dope too, steak was medium-well. My main was the Molcajete and if you go hungry, will definitely hit the spot right. Great service all around, our server Mildanny made several good recommendations for us, including the dessert which was a hit. Cost for 4 people was pretty reasonable and that's that it was pretty much two drinks per person. Will definitely be back to take advantage of HH!

    This Mexican restaurant is beautiful and has a gorgeous, massive bar. Indoor and outdoor seating is available. Outdoor seating is usually where I sit. I've been here for lunch, dinner, and happy hour. Personally, you get more out of this place during happy hour. The margaritas are really strong, and usually one is enough to leave you feeling bubbly. The guacamole and chips is a solid appetizer choice. I also love their pineapple drink from the happy hour menu. If you don't come during happy hour, this place definitely leaves a hole in your pocket. It is pricey. I don't agree with the regular prices, so now I only go for happy hour.

    Barra Vieja is our new spot. Not only is it gorgeous and upscale inside, the food is absolutely top notch. It's pure quality. Service was five stars. Get there for happy hour or taco Tuesday because these deals are unbeatable... Delicious margaritas! Our birria tacos were to die for and loaded with meat. Everything was fresh and exceptional. we can't wait to go back!

    Really big and beautiful restaurant in Doral Midtown. We decided to eat outside because they had live music and it was really loud inside the dining room area. If you are celebrating a birthday or having a special celebration, the live music is nice, but if you are looking for dinner and conversation is not ideal. We had some delicious margaritas from the happy hour menu. They tasted really good, it was a sort of orange margarita, but by the end of the night I had a headache and I only get headaches from drinks when is not good quality spirits. I'm guessing for the happy hour drinks they don't use top shelf liquor. We ordered the regular guacamole as appetizer. I love Guac and this one was very delicious. It was almost a whip consistency but had little chunks of tomato and onions, really good and fresh. As our main dish we ordered a Mexican inspired fried rice and a sort of fajita dish where they bring you the protein inside a volcanic dish (posted picture) inside said bowl there was chicken, steak, two big shrimp, fried cheese, guac and pickle onion. Both were tasty but both felt over the top. A lot of seasonings, a lot of different ingredients. I can't say I loved or hated. Just felt like not a good balance. Too much going on, to truly enjoy the flavors and texture of the meal. Another thing was that the chairs outside where we were seated, were wet from the rain and my jeans got wet stains from sitting on them. The service was fast, and very friendly. And the portions are really big,so we shared between two of us and had left overs that we left behind by mistake, but I doubt we would have want to eat the food the next day. Our meal was about $130, they included 18% already to the bill. Not too impressed with this restaurant I must admit.

    The food was pretty good--classic Mexican dishes. Nothing extraordinary, but solid overall. The drinks, however, were really good. The service was just okay; although our server was friendly, she made several mistakes with our order and kept bringing drinks we hadn't ordered. The ambiance was very nice, and the live music made the evening much more enjoyable.

    Came for dinner, ordered take out. Super easy to order online. Food was ready as promised. Helpful staff. Inside was nice, will come back to dine in. Ordered the birria ramen, it was packaged well. Food was tasty. Look forward to trying other items.

    The food is low quality I ordered the bowl with pastor chicken and the chicken pieces were mostly chicken fat. At first I thought it was pineapple but then I realized it's to chewy to be pineapple. And then I realized it was all just cubes of chicken fat. I got disgusted and threw it away. For a restaurant I expect more.

    Carnitas Tacos (served with rice and beans not pictured)

    Great New Mexican spot in Doral, I had been seeing this location pop up on Yelp and finally was able to drop by for lunch. The decor is very inviting and lively and they have a beautiful bar. The service is also very friendly and inviting. We opted to try their great Prix Fixe lunch menu with lots to choose from and generous portions. We ordered the guacamole and carnitas tacos as well as the Jicama salad and vegetarian enchiladas and the flavor on everything was authentic! And let's not forget the drinks, the margarita and Michelada were well made and refreshing! Looking forward to returning during their happy hour as well as visiting on a Sunday when they have Mariachis. If you are in Doral and want some Mexican food, good ambience and great service I suggest you stop in at Barra Vieja.

    Went for drinks and a quick bite. Restaurant was pretty busy and seemed like Fridays they hire a DJ to play some tunes. Sat at the bar where we thought service would be quick because there were four bartenders and even then it was a little difficult to call them over. Ordered a guac appetizer which was pretty good and entree of tacos. Tacos ended up coming out before the guac. Calling the bartender over was almost impossible felt like a game of telephone. If i were to return i would try sitting at an actual table instead of the bar.

    Yelp recommends a few things to consider when reviewing: Food - Service - Ambiance...Well, Barra Vieja has it all and much more! It's a beautiful location in a corner of Downtown Doral, you can't miss it! Stunning views from the entrance to the back (even the restrooms). Nicely lit for a romantic date or hand out with friends Cocktails: El Verano, Chef Margarita, and Sotokyo! Apps: The pork belly with caviar was so unique and so worth ordering! Trust me! And don't forget guacamole tradicional freshly made in house Entres: Highlight of the night was an enchilada with mole, which I had to order and hope to find again in the future on the menu! And Arroz a la Tumbada was fresh and flavorful and amazing too! Desserts: The Elote Tres Leches was just perfect and the Santa Teresa Espresso Martini was one of the best I've had!

    A friend and I stopped by Barra Vieja last Saturday for a quick happy hour while in downtown Doral. The staff was very accommodating in allowing me to bring inside my puppy as long as he did get on the furniture which was totally understandable. My friend and I both tried the La Piña cocktail from the happy hour menu and the guac both were delicious and very reasonably priced! This restaurant is relatively new so I was very happy to finally give it a try. The inside is gorgeous! The staff was very nice! I will definitely be coming back to try some more items on their menu and a refreshing margarita!

    I've been wanting to try this restaurant since it opened. We went on a Thursday, it was pretty empty at 6:30. All the tables have postcards announcing Thursday Ladies Night from 6-10. Our server took a bit to come to our table so it was 6:50 by the time she took our order. She let us know that ladies night deals, happy hour, stopped at 7 then started again at 8, not what the postcards said. Finally after a few times asking her she said the manager allowed her to give happy hour prices after 7. Not sure why it was so confusing. The menu is not too big and neither are the portions. I had a vegetarian open quesadilla that was $20 and it was VERY small. We also had the molcajete, it was good but, because it's so hot, the food dried up very fast. The best was the crispy rice with lobster and salmon, also pretty pricey at $28 for 4 small pieces, but tasty. Margaritas were half price, they were pretty good. It's a nice restaurant, they still need some tweaking to get to the point where they can compete with their neighbors.

Once you step inside, you're transported back to the Prohibition era with a moody atmosphere, intimate setting, and all the character you'd hope to find in a true speakeasy experience. The cocktails are unquestionably the star of the show. Thoughtfully crafted, well-balanced, and presented with attention to detail, each drink feels like part of the experience rather than just something to sip on. Add in a live DJ, great music, and an energetic crowd, and the result is a place with incredible vibes from start to finish. Whether you're looking for a unique date night, a nightcap, or a spot to impress friends from out of town, 9 Feet Under delivers. Joe, at the door, was very welcoming. Fabricio, the mixologist, was a true craftsman. We'll definitely be back.

My own birthday was celebrated there on karaoke night, and it was one of the most amazing and unforgettable nights. We also celebrated my niece's graduation on karaoke night, and it was another incredible evening filled with friends, family, laughter, and great memories. Seeing an employee post something so negative about an event that so many of us genuinely enjoy is disappointing. From the outside looking in, it seems like there's been a big shift in whoever is running these events. I recently attended both karaoke night and ladies' night, and the atmosphere was completely different from what many of us have come to love. FYI, karaoke night *brings people together*. I can't think of a single time we've gone and not had a great night. That's why this post doesn't reflect what 9 Feet Under has always represented to so many of us. If you work there and karaoke night is that terrible *for you*, maybe it's worth asking yourself why that is. Or perhaps this isn't the right environment for you. But please don't portray an event that has created so many positive memories for so many people as something negative, because that's simply not the experience the rest of us have had. Now you've lost customers!!

German kept an eye on my iced tea and refilled it before I had to ask. I also requested egg whites. I had a couple plates of nice crispy bacon as well. For happy hour, Fernando was a true gem!

Of course, I also had to try the drinks from the bar (The Bar at The Yard). I ordered: NOT A PEAR IN THE WORLD ($16) - Patrón Reposado tequila, lime juice, Chile Ancho Reyes, prickly pear syrup, and Firewater Tincture bitters. WATERMELON SUGAR ($14) - Hendrick's gin, lime juice, mint, fresh watermelon juice, and simple syrup. Both drinks were super refreshing -- and one definitely had a spicy kick! If you haven't been to Doral Yard yet, please check it out. You will not be disappointed.

No one apologized for the wait on food. None of what we ordered tasted good. I guess with cold food that's hard to judge though. My avocado toast had a full field of micro greens that covered up any other flavor it might have had. I'm sure the crowd of middle aged dinners appreciated the DJ though. Cuz this is Miami and that's how things are done. Slow, inconsiderate, and loud.
