The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was absolutely perfect. The waterfront setting and laid back Keys vibe make it such a fun place to relax, enjoy a meal, and spend the afternoon.

Every year during lobster season in the Florida Keys, we make it a point to stop here--usually on a…read moreTuesday or Wednesday. It's become one of our favorite traditions. The scenery is exactly what you'd expect in the Keys: beautiful waterfront views and a laid-back island atmosphere. Our main focus is always the cocktails, and my absolute favorite is the Key Lime Colada. It's a must-order every single visit! I'm a huge piña colada fan and have never really been much of a Key lime pie person, but somehow the combination of the two is absolutely amazing. The vibe here is super relaxed. We've arrived both by boat and by car, and no matter how we get here, it's always one of our first stops. On our very first visit, we paid for a day pass to use the pool, but the prices have gone up quite a bit over the years, so we usually skip that now. They often have live music, plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, and the smell of the stone-fired pizzas hits you the moment you walk inside. The indoor space is surprisingly large, and there's also a small gift shop where you can pick up a T-shirt or souvenir to remember your trip. If you're heading to the Florida Keys, I definitely recommend adding this place to your itinerary. Great drinks, beautiful views, and a fun, relaxing atmosphere make it a stop we look forward to every single year.

We started with some cocktails; I enjoyed mine which was cognac with some fruity concoction, but my husband didn't enjoy his old fashion style drink. The food however was spectacular. We had the deviled eggs and cornbread to start, and I loved that the bread came with two different types of spreads. For entree, we did the fried chicken and the shrimp and grits, plus shared some Mac and cheese. Overall, everything was delicious, incredibly flavorful and fresh. Truly a fantastic southern meal with Afro-Caribbean influences. For dessert, we got the sweet potato pound cake and added a scoop of ice cream - delicious, served warm and not too too sweet. A fantastic meal in a beautiful decorated space and great service.

The live music created such a fun and lively atmosphere and really added to the experience. The food was beautifully presented and tasted just as good as it looked. Everything we ordered had great flavor, and the overall vibe made for a memorable evening. It's the perfect place to enjoy good food, great music, and the vibrant energy of Little Havana. We would definitely come back the next time we're in Miami!

Went to Ball & Chain this past weekend. Mixed feelings, really…read more On one hand, I was disappointed. The costs are out of control. Two small cocktails were over $50 with tip. Out of control for what likely cost the restaurant $3 in booze. We then wanted to grab something to eat. There were at least 5 nice booths available and we grabbed one. We were then told we had to move. Despite the open and more comfortable places to eat, we were placed at a tiny, round, 3' high wooden table that could barely fit food for two. We ordered an appetizer and a cuban sandwich. The sandwich was small, dry, and lacked flavor. They never returned to even ask if we wanted water. Very disappointing. That said, it's a vibrant place that has great live music and a great Cuban vibe. (It's very loud, so know that). So a mixed bag at Ball & Chain. I might return but it would not be my first choice.

I'm originally from Buffalo, so finding out this was a Backers bar AND that the founders are from…read moreBuffalo, without knowing any of that beforehand, was the first highlight for me! I loved all of the Bills decor and the street-art vibe throughout the place. We ordered pizza and wings and got the truffle garlic parm wood-fired wings, which were SO flavorful and so good. I do wish they were cooked a little more in the center, but overall they were amazing. I was a little confused that blue cheese didn't come with the wings, especially being a Buffalo girl lol. We also ordered the Korean BBQ pork belly and pineapple pizza, and easily one of the best pizzas I've ever had. Seriously so good. The staff was super friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. Definitely a place I'd come back to!

An amazing place that has been top notch every single time that I have come here with my husband…read moreand some friends. The staff is wonderful and have even given their own recommendations when I have ordered a couple drinks because they personally didn't like them. I like that they did that because it shows they aren't trying to push certain drinks, especially when they have told me I can bring it back and exchange it if I didn't end up liking what they recommended! Prices are very reasonable and each drink they have here has different ounce pours that are different prices so it is very easy to mix and match and still have a nice little budget of money left lying around for their food. I got some pretzel bites for an appetizer and then one of their pizzas for my meal last time. The pretzel bites were very good and the cheese sauce they make there was amazing as well! The pizza was very tasty and for the price and leftovers I still had, it was well worth it. This place does get busy in the evenings so be ready to maybe stand around waiting for a bit before a table opens up! I love the layout and atmosphere because you can see where they bottle their beer there as well as the nicely lit place overall!

5 Stars - Great Food, Great Service & Amazing Support!…read more We had an outstanding experience with JT's Sports Bar & Grill this summer! They did an incredible job taking care of our camp and helping us feed a large number of hungry kids. Handling big camp orders isn't easy, but JT's made it look that way. The food was always fresh, delicious, prepared correctly, and ready on time. The kids loved it and always looked forward to the days when JT's was on the menu! What really stood out to us was their reliability and willingness to work with us. When you're responsible for feeding an entire camp, you need a restaurant you can count on, and JT's came through for us every time. It's wonderful to have a local restaurant that not only serves great food but also steps up and supports kids and organizations in the community. A huge thank you to everyone at JT's Sports Bar & Grill for taking such great care of our campers. Great food, dependable service, and great people. We highly recommend JT's and will definitely continue supporting them!
