That evening, it was one of the few places still open after 10 PM, so we ended up there and had a great time. The food was excellent, with very reasonable prices, and the drinks were well-crafted. We never felt rushed to leave after our meal, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Though it's a bit far from home, if I find myself in the area again, I wouldn't hesitate to stop by.

I went here for lunch by myself to have a bar meal and check the place out. I had read good things…read more Wow, what a disappointment! Parking (I was riding my motorcycle) was scarce. I talked the friendly valet into letting me park between a handicap space and a dumpster. The service was awful. It was 1:30 pm and there were about 15 customers with capacity for 100+. I was given a menu and a glass of water timely and the lady behind the bar seemed friendly. There were plenty of staff around waiting tables and backing the bar. I ordered a blackened fish sandwich and a draft beer. The beer came right away in a plastic mug. The pour was less than 12 oz. (small mug) and the brew was barely chilled. Almost room temperature. After 20 minutes and no fish sandwich, the bar lady came by and asked me: "Did you get your fish sandwich?" I said no. She then went in the main building (presumably where the kitchen is located) coming out a few minutes later while holding up 2 fingers, mouthing "2 minutes." The sandwich was $22 without fries (which were and extra $9 as a side). I didn't order those. The half-pint warm beer was $8. About 7 minutes later, another server came from the main building and delivered a scrawny, soggy bun containing a thick, small, undercooked, hunk of blackened fish flesh only 80% skin free. I had to finish the filleting myself. The toppings were parsley and onion. It was the ugliest and most tasteless blackened fish sandwich I have ever been served. I should've taken a photo. Anyway, by this point, I was in a hurry to get out of there as the place was a total fail. I picked at the fish with my fork and knife and ate the part that was actually meat and cooked, leaving the rest (skin included) and the soggy bun on the plate. With an 18% gratuity included, a simple grilled fish sandwich with no sides and a warm beer came out to almost $40. On the positive side, the view of the water and the Miami - Brickell skyline was good. However, I won't be coming back to this joint again. If I could give it Zero stars, I would.

We were seated in the main bar area and both ordered a beverage. I got the Amazonia, a gin based drink with agave lavender and lemon juice with a macha rim. Caleb got the El Presidente, which is a rum based drink with orange liqueur, vermouth, and pomegranate. The drinks were really good, and as expected in a place like this, a bit on the expensive side, but at Swizzle you have a mixologist preparing your cocktails, which always heightens the quality! It was nice to find an intimate place in Miami Beach to kick back enjoy a cocktail and just have some nice conversation, and some people watching with each other. We didn't make a reservation and likely just hit the timing right, so we got in right away and had a great spot. Lentz_explore

Still open Wednesday through Friday and completely grad student run, this waterfront bar has a more laidback feel than other swanky places on the key, with the benefit of $5 local crafts.

This bar also serves food in a cafeteria style like kitchen, that is open as long as the bar is (til 10pm I believe). It's a fantastic place to bring newcomers to Miami if they love the beach, brews, and something a little more low key than a south beach/brickell experience!
