    Lychee 75
    Leah A.

    Had such a fun experience at El laundry room the other night. My girlfriend and I decided to check it out after being at the Miami Improv. It was only a few minutes away and it's a place that she had been dying to go to for a while. This place is definitely hidden. Speakeasy vibes for sure. There is a set up of four laundry machines and lots of laundry and cleaning products around. In order to get the code you must direct message the Instagram account. Once you get there, you have to put the code into the payphone on the wall and the Side door will open. Once you walk in it is a dark dreamy hideaway where you feel like you've stepped into a 70s boom boom room. The walls are appointed with really cool wallpaper, there's neon signs and a spinning disco ball on the ceiling. It is filled with fun green velvet couches, a smattering of chairs and a bar. That's big enough to fit about eight people. There's a DJ that's spinning some great music when we got there around 12:30 AM. The place was pretty full. We each had one drink and they were phenomenal. I had their version of an espresso martini called the "espressotini" made with rum. my friend got a lychee seventy five which was the bars take on a French seventy five . these were true craft cocktails and even though the prices were a little steep ( $17 and $18 respectively ), they were absolutely phenomenal. When you pay that much for a craft cocktail, you really want it to be that a crap cocktail! Although this place is definitely not anywhere near home, I would make the trip there one in Miami!

    Lovers boys I recommend trying the Scottish whiskey drink that's $22 but totally worth it. And have to go with the espresso martini tasted nothing. I've ever tried before. Best thing to order here. But overall, really cute design in this bar

    Birthday celebration at this bar. And the experience was amazing, the appetizers were really good and tasty. The service was outstanding, from the waiter to the bartenders. The ambience was amazing, great people hanging out and enjoying a great time. Overall, the Music was outstanding, that is because of the really good DJ at this place. The place is small and cozy, but perfect for anyone looking for drinks, and a great time to hang out with friends or colleagues. If you're in the Doral area, this is a place you need to visit. Keep in mind, you need a special code to get in, only given to you via their Instagram account, I would definitely be coming back here!

    Great speakeasy concept! If you don't know what "speakeasy" research it before going so you can understand the concept. This is important since it is a different experience. The drinks were good! Service was great. Place is small so seating was limited. We asked if we can sit in a corner area that was empty they said it was reserved. No one sat there the entire time we waited to get seating. The bar was full so we really didn't get to enjoy the sit down experience. It's a shame that they didn't let us sit in the reserved area that never got used. I did see people come in sit around didn't get drinks which is really sad to see people do this. Considering others want to have drinks and are standing around to really enjoy the music and drinks. Music was on point for the vibe of a speakeasy. Drink menu looked great. I hope to come back another day and try and enjoy sitting. Maybe the owners should consider cover charges or drink minimum to wean out those that just want pictures for social media. Follow the instructions and dress code. That why they have it.

    Sent a message to Instagram and got a response ' Tonight's access code is 268# 11402 NW 41st St #106, Doral, FL 33178 (Between Spizzigo and Dunkin' Donuts ) Open from 7pm - 2am Please be aware that we have our unique rules and atmospheres, so be prepared to follow our guidelines and maintain the discreet and secretive nature of the experience. Remember to be respectful and considerate of our policies and the privacy we aim to provide to our customers. We hope you have a great time at "El Laundry Room"' Upon arrival, the security then told us he didn't have our name on his list and we would not be permitted to enter the empty establishment on a Wednesday night. We were properly dressed as usual but we were turned away after taking a 45-minute drive to Doral. We ended up going right next door and had an amazing night thanks to the staff of Baru. This gave us an absolute disdain for "El Laundry Room"' and the low ratings are probably due to that one staff member at the door destroying the company.

    Great spot, my go to. Love the waitresses and bartenders. The drinks here are served with style. The music is amazing. Great spot to hit Friday or Saturday.

    My partner and I came here for our first time on a date night. It was about 3 weeks ago on 9/6 on a Wednesday night. This specific speakeasy you do need a code to get in. In order to receive the code you message their Instagram and they instantly respond to you. On the reviews below there is a few negative comments on it , however I'm assuming they've gotten better at responding. When we entered all the tables and bar seats were occupied, so we waited at the sofa right at the entrance. Their was a young lady who came and greeted us instantly and asked if we'd like a cocktail. Shortly after that a table became available so the wait wasn't long (I'd say good 15mins). What I did really enjoy was the ambiance , all servers were nice and attentive and the decor was very much jungle vibes! We each tried 3 cocktails, the cocktails were all very different and creative. I'd say they were very much on the sweeter end, probably one thing I'd say I wasn't really digging . We did order a snack, the pimento olives, this dish brings sooo many olives, so the price for it wasn't too shabby. Their food menu is very limited, I mean what do we expect it's a speakeasy not a restaurant. However the overall experience was nice!

    El Laundry Room offers a unique and memorable experience for patrons seeking a hidden gem in customer service and expertly crafted drinks. The ambiance of secrecy adds an intriguing touch to the overall visit, making it a must-visit spot for those looking for something special. The attentive customer service and meticulously prepared drinks contribute to a delightful and enjoyable experience that keeps guests coming back for more. Overall, El Laundry Room is a hidden treasure that impresses with its exceptional service and exquisite beverages. The message response from IG was instant and the code worked. Everything was perfect!

    Disappointed I recently had the unfortunate experience of visiting ElLaundry in Doral . I love speakeasies and was very excited to have one , somewhat locally. Unfortunately, I can attest to some of the reviews expressing the bouncer's blatant discrimination. First and foremost, the wait time was exorbitant. We patiently waited for over an hour and a half, expecting that our turn to enter would eventually come. To our disbelief, we observed individuals arriving after us being granted entry without hesitation. It became evident that the bouncer's decision-making process was influenced by something other than the order in which guests arrived. I understand that the nightlife industry can be fast-paced and demanding, but it should be important to ensure that your staff members uphold ethical standards. Once inside, it was a different experience but by then the excitement was over and my mind was made up not to return! That first picture was taken because the line reached the wall, yet most of those individuals were able to enter before we did!

    Was not pleased with my experience at El Laundry Room. Very cute idea of going through the laundry door, I am a sucker for a speak easy, but this was not it. A small space, a high maintenance dress code, and a selective door man. Good to go for 20 mins especially for the selection of drinks if you happen to be a drink connoisseur. Check it out to pass by, but in my opinion, not to make a night of.

    Talk about surprises! So we were walking in this shopping center and the guy standing outside this place was wearing a suit and he looked very professional like a security guard, and he told us to come in to the laundry room, I was surprised, and I ask him: What's the laundry room he said. You will get a code that you would enter on the phone and that will open the doors to the bar inside. I did it and what a beautiful surprise. Nice bar with a great vibe amazing music from my nice DJ, and the best old fashion I have had so far in my life!

One thing that was particularly disappointing was what happened after our visit. I reached out to the restaurant through social media to share our concerns and was told that someone would be contacting me directly. After weeks passed without any response, I followed up multiple times myself, yet I still never heard from anyone. That lack of communication was just as disappointing as some of the issues we experienced during dinner. Our evening began with a poorly situated table. The restaurant's air conditioning was apparently not working, and a portable AC unit had been placed in the corridor, blowing directly onto our table throughout the meal. We politely requested another table, but our request was declined, despite several empty tables remaining available for the entirety of our 90-minute reservation. What made this even more frustrating was seeing another party of two, who were seated after us, moved to a quieter, more secluded table away from the draft. The appetizers were excellent and set a promising tone for the meal. Unfortunately, the timing of the main courses was a significant issue. My husband's fish arrived well before my steak, and despite intentionally waiting, his meal became cold. He ultimately finished his entire entrée before mine was ever served. We even asked our server if there had been any confusion with the courses, but the delay remained unexplained. The pacing of table service could also be improved. My husband and I both work in hospitality, so we may notice these details more than the average guest, but there were multiple occasions where empty plates remained on our table for an extended period. By the time guests feel the need to stack dishes themselves just to create space, it's usually a sign that clearing has been delayed too long. The table itself also felt quite cramped. There was no practical place to store personal belongings, so I ended up holding my purse on my lap for the entire dinner. As for the food, there were several highlights. The wontons were spectacular, and the broth was exceptional. The pasta was cooked perfectly al dente. The quality of the steak was excellent, although it felt like it could have benefited from an accompanying side. The portion of hollandaise (or mayonnaise-based sauce) was quite generous relative to the size of the steak. My husband's fish was light, fresh, and paired beautifully with the tender farro. The wine selection was decent and offered value compared with similarly priced wine lists elsewhere. The staff were friendly and pleasant throughout the evening, even though we were disappointed that our seating concerns could not be accommodated. One additional area for improvement: when we asked about purchasing a bottle of wine, our server initially assumed my husband wanted a single glass. While this was a minor misunderstanding, asking a brief clarifying question before placing the order would help avoid confusion. Overall, there is clearly talented people in both the kitchen and front-of-house team, and the quality of the food demonstrates that. However, inconsistent service, poor course timing, the lack of flexibility with seating, and the complete absence of follow-up after management indicated they would reach out ultimately left us disappointed.
