My top place to go out at as a Miami local Drinks are always 10/10 and the music is just as good. They have a pool table at the front which is sometimes hard to get to but is so much fun. The place is so pretty and I love the couches
New favorite bar in Miami. Wonderful decor if you like quirky/retro/old Florida. The drinks are exceptional too.
Great cocktails in retroeclectic atmosphere. The Sylvester has creative cocktails using high quality and carefully selected spirits. Went to Sylvester relatively early on Friday evening. It was not very busy so got a seat at the bar. The interior design of the bar is quite eclectic..not super cosy, but mor of a partylounge style. I'm sure at later hrs the place turns to vibrant club. Cocktail list was creative and was hard to choose...too many drinks I was keen to try. I opted for Summer Thyme which is a negroni with a twist...mango is used to balance the bitterness of Campari and Cocchi Rosa. Very pleasant drink. The service was quick and friendly. Barman happily explained the secrets of the cocktail I had. The Sylvester is a good place for quality cocktails and party!
Fantastic cocktail bar with a speakeasy feel. Nestled in between Wynwood and the design district this makes for a great stop for after dinner drinks. Live DJ is a nice touch.
The experience was so good the bartenders were great!! I had never been before, but the bartenders were great with suggestions and I was very happy! They have happy hour drink special from 5-6, as low as $8? A great deal. It goes up a dollar every hour until 8pm. I highly recommend the cruise control for happy hour, you can't beat half price for the quality of drinks. So smooth! My favorite was the blurred lines drink by far far get it!! Thank me later 😀 Sophia, Chris, and Kenny were amazing with their recommendations, service, and attention to detail. You need to check them out!
