Jump in the channel and swim to the other side to find something else! I love dive bars, they're all over Wisconsin, so I've come to expect good things from hole in the wall joints. This place completely destroyed that approach. One other family in the bar at a table, us and one guy at the bar. Server was too busy chatting with the one guy to give good service. Food took forever to come out and was mediocre at best. Portions were huge, but size doesn't make up for taste. Fried chicken was actually three chicken breasts that were breaded. Had no flavor though. Chicken tacos were ok, nachos were Meh at best. Meatball sub was ok, but fries were something thicker and larger than standard steak fries and were also just Meh. If you're in town and just want a quick bite to eat with local fare, stop by McDonalds instead. At least there you know what the food quality is and you can choose appropriately.

We were greeted and sat immediately by the host. Our waitress greeted us with a smile and recommended a few great cocktails and oysters to start. We took her advice and added the Tuna Crudo, which was FANTASTIC, the Beet Deviled Eggs, EGGCELLENT! We can't say enough about our experience and look forward to trying many other delicious items on the menu. Cheers!

Pretty cool to know that they have been rated as one of the 50 best bars in the WORLD. That's a pretty big achievement to accomplish. Parking can be tricky, you may find street parking. If not you can park at the lot by the beach. Other than that, you should be right on your way to having a great night.

I ordered the rock shrimp - five small grilled shrimp (about 3 cm long), served in their shells. They came cut in half with a tasty sauce, but without any side dish, for $30.

But on that day, we found the experience unacceptable.

There's everything from a hammock to standard outdoor furniture. We ordered a few drinks throughout the night, thoughts on all: - Breakfast in the Moonlight: delicious, tastes like a tiki drink, easy to drink and balanced -East of Eden: I didn't love this one as much but the bartender recommended it so it must be popular. It gives me cucumber water at the spa vibes but in a cocktail form. -Always Summer Negroni: I absolutely loved this drink! My favorite one of the night. So cool because it's a clear drink. Really nicely balanced cocktail, not too bitter. -La Bamba Colada: Tastes like a piña colada! But not overly sweet. No dairy for my fellow lactose intolerant friends (just coconut milk). At some point we also ordered a salad, the Shaker Salad with mahi mahi - I liked it! Friendly bartender and staff and overall great place to stop in and grab a drink! They have pretty reasonable prices too.

I know there are 47 reviews already posted, however I just had to post my overall opinion…read more I cannot tell you how I find this place every time I go, I just do. I usually find it after midnight. I always find parking right in-front of the business which means street parking is easily accessible, and feesabile. . This is one of those trendier dive bars. There is a jukebox; and if you're smart; you can download the "Touchtones" app, connect it to their jukebox; buy credits and totally dominate the jukebox the whole night, with stupid Whitney songs and Ariana Grande songs, and no one can stop you, and, no one can do anything about it, and you can sit at the end of the bar amused. Or, you can just randomly jam out because your song came on. There's a pool table as well,. Sometimes there's an angry loud big breasted local dominating the table who doesn't want any competition playing, (oh well). The bathrooms are cleaner than most of the other dive bars I have crawled into. I have met the owner, hes a tall Russian guy, and I have met 2 of the many bar ladies; their names are; Tefanie and Marcia. Everyone is friendly. The drinks are cheap, however; they have a $10 minimum for Debit or Credit cards. Overall if you can find this place then you should give it a go if you're in the area.

I highly recommend The Tavern in if you're in Miami Beach.

The vibe is relaxed and approachable, a nice contrast to the high‑gloss energy everywhere else on the property. It's the place where you can roll in straight from the pool, grab a bite, and reset without feeling rushed or out of place. Food-wise, everything landed right where it needed to. Portions were generous, flavors were solid, and the menu hits that sweet spot of comfort food with a Miami twist. Great spot for families, groups, or anyone who wants something satisfying without committing to a full fine‑dining production. Service was friendly and efficient -- not over the top, but attentive enough to keep things moving. Drinks were cold, the atmosphere was easygoing, and it's clear the staff knows how to handle the steady flow of resort guests. If you're staying at the Fontainebleau, Arkadia Grill is a dependable go‑to for a laid‑back meal. It's not trying to be the star of the property, but it absolutely delivers on convenience, quality, and comfort. A strong 4‑star experience that rounds out the resort's lineup nicely. Cheers

The bartender told us from 8-10p, drinks are half off, whoa! The hard rock was playing and the decor above the bar will make you laugh (and maybe reminisce). They had an art installation in the bar (so cool that they do this!) when we were there. We weren't quite sure what kind of music the DJ would play, first it was very hard rock and the crowds started coming so more popular songs were played. People were dancing, drinking and having a good time. A full range of music from NIN, Nirvana, Mariah Carey, Shakira, etc was heard all evening! You could put requests in and it was honestly a really fun night! They keep the bar clean, always removing empty glasses, napkins and constantly moving to clear the bar and small tables. They have a water station at the end of the bar and really make sure it's always full. I'm very impressed with this place (it's connected to Lost Weekend but we never made it over since we were enjoying Kill Your Idol too much). We had a great time, thank you!
