Came to grab a bite to eat with my friends, prior to being invited I had no idea of this place but…read moreI left beyond surprised! All the food we ordered was great my favorite was the meatball pizza with ricotta and the chicken wings were great too! Pizza was very crispy and the sauce was amazing. Chicken wings were soooo good with the sweet and spicy sauce they toss them in. For drinks they had a limited time menu and I had one called "The Miami Monk" and it was this creamy coconut cocktail with rum and it was only $10 and for the price it was so worth it. Service was great our server was very friendly and he was really attentive and was asking us our feedback on the food and drinks, and it's things like that, that make the experience all that much better! Ambiance was nice it was a tiny little hole in the wall playing some good music, but it was empty when we went, which personally for me I really enjoy opposed to it being super packed lol, I would recommend this place all day every day!

It was a frozen concoction of fresh pineapple and strawberry juice with wine based liquor and it was divine. I usually stay away from frozen drinks out of fear of sugar concentrated juices, but the fresh juices made the drink such a delight. I was a happy camper knowing I had another one coming after my first one. They make wine based cocktails that aren't very far from the real deal, so it's a great way to find some favorite drinks without going down the liquor rabbit hole. I had the meatballs which came swimming in a tasty marinara with a side of crusty bread. The meatballs were seasoned just right and perfect to munch on with my drink and the red wine that came afterwards. I mopped up the sauce with the bread and have no regrets. The staff and management knew I was holding a book club meeting and gave us a beautiful partially enclosed space with a table to seat 10 people surrounded by shelves of wine that they sell. If you order a bottle and it's a red, they'll take it right off the shelf and open it for you. Sometimes they have a half off wine bottle promotion, so it's good to go and check out what they have going on! The manager Rebecca and her staff took great care of a rambunctious group of hungry and thirsty bookworms and made us feel very welcome. I can't wait to hold another meeting there as an excuse to return!

The music was also. super cool! I got to try out a couple of wines before buying and that was seriously the most genius idea ever. I intended to purchase one bottle of wine but walked away with three. The bar is very pocket friendly. Two drinks ended up totaling to about $13 given that it was happy hour. They also have a delivery option which is always a plus. I definitely recommend and will definitely be coming back here during my next Miami visit.

The charcuterie board is great to pair with your wine.

Overall, Lost Boys is a good neighborhood bar, and I don't think it deserves a bad review, so I'm…read moregiving it four stars. That being said, personally, I don't think I would come back. The biggest thing for me was the overall energy and engagement from the staff. I'm naturally a pretty social and engaged person, especially when I'm sitting at a bar, and I made an effort to interact with the bartenders. I just didn't really feel that same engagement coming back. Nobody was necessarily rude or disrespectful--it just felt disconnected, and the energy was a little strange to me. I also didn't realize until I tried to pay that the bar doesn't accept cash. Maybe that was posted somewhere and I missed it, and once they told me, it wasn't a big deal. But little things like that, combined with the overall interaction, affected the experience. Another thing I didn't realize until receiving my check was that gratuity was already included. I wasn't verbally told about it, and I personally didn't see it disclosed anywhere beforehand. From my understanding, an automatic gratuity or service charge is required to be disclosed to the guest before the purchase, not something they should only discover when they receive the check. Maybe there was a notice somewhere that I missed, so I'm not saying there wasn't one, but I definitely wasn't aware of it. I think that's an important thing for guests to know upfront, especially because someone could easily add another tip without realizing gratuity was already included. Ironically, the one person I genuinely connected with and had a good conversation with was another guest at the bar, not a member of the staff. That interaction actually helped make my time there more enjoyable. For me, hospitality is about more than serving a drink. Especially when someone is clearly open, friendly, and trying to engage, that's an easy opportunity to create a connection and turn a first-time guest into someone who wants to come back. I felt like I gave plenty of opportunities for that interaction, but it just never really happened. I still had a good time because I can have a good time pretty much anywhere, and nothing happened that would make me say Lost Boys is a bad bar. It just didn't feel like the staff cared much about enhancing the experience beyond serving the drinks. So four stars because I respect what the place is and can see why it works as a neighborhood bar. It just didn't give me a reason to come back, and personally, I don't think I would.
