Mike's At Venetia in Miami - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

10/10 recommend. I would fly to back in a heartbeat just to eat here and enjoy the friendly service again. After having terrible experiences at two other restaurants we found Mike's and met the most amazing person (Aly) in the whole land. Not only was the service impeccable but the food was some of the best I had on my entire vacation. Huge portions and normal priced menu. Great atmosphere with NICE people!

Mike’s is a real hidden gem in Miami! A nice dive Irish pub with incredible food and drink prices that remind me of Wisconsin! Not to mention close proximity to the Metromover and everything else downtown, don’t pass this place up!

Some of the best prices you'll find in Miami with a classic Irish bar feel and great views of the city.. Seafood gumbo is okay and the burger came out pretty well done but drinks were priced gray and the servers were nice

Recently asked for a recommendation near Frost museum in Miami… not sure who I crossed but we took the recommendation of Mike’s at Venetia. I’m writing this as I wait for more food to hit the table. When we walked in they tried to lead us to a table outside… we specifically requested indoor dining for our party. They were empty, so the change was simple. Food began to come out after nearly 40 minutes, but not all at once. We were a party of 11. Some items didn’t come out until over an hour after our arrival. And of course some items came out wrong. The food is mediocre at best. Couple different orders of wings- all wings the same tho with way too much sauce poured over the top of them. Nachos had a little cheese on top with an abundance of tomato and lettuce thrown all over and then a grilled chicken breast cubed thrown on top of that. Not good either. Also, an old fashioned and a Long Island iced tea were ordered. Both were no good. I have no idea how this place has been in business over 30 years. Do not come here for food ever!

Only stayed long enough for one beer, but will go back in my next trip to Miami for sure! Nice hidden spot. Open late, or early as the case may be. Follow the google maps directions… not THAT hard to find.

One of the only places I go to in Miami. Staff is kind and inviting and the food is great. Awesome place to watch just about any game on and shoot some pool, and the view is definitely a plus.

Very dingy place. While the servers were very nice, the place looks like a dump. Inside the bar has an awful smell of dried up beer on wood floors.

Not sure the cause for multiple positive reviews here. The food was ok at best. Not expensive but not cheap. Supposedly an Irish Bar but played hip hop music the whole time. Don’t care, but was funny nonetheless. Personally I wouldn’t return here if I were in the area. Did have a nice view over the bay though.

BEST PLACE IN MIAMI! Wonderful bartenders, great food, superb prices & awesome views. Doesnt get any better!!!!

If you live in Miami, this is your local spot. If not, Mike's reminds you of your local Irish bar down the road. Good food, great people. Best kept secret in Miami.

My favorite bar in Miami!! The staff is awesome and friendly. Sara is the best!! They have a great selection of beers and the clientele is always mellow. The location is odd but you do get a great view of Biscayne Bay and downtown. It's a great dive and I miss it already. Thank you for always taking care of Cambino. I hope to be back soon. Take care and keep up the great work!! GO DOLPHINS!!

Bar Smells Like Piss Weak drinks

A breathe of Fresh Air in a sea of ‘plastic paddy bars’ in Miami. Nestled away on the 9th floor of The Venetia hotel downtown - its a great bar filled w local colour & friendliness both by staff & customers alike. Large Outdoor area to sit for smoking & inside pool tables & lots of sports Tv’s . A good selection of beers including Guinness & Smithicks on draft. Quality Bar menu st good prices and the Service is exceptional - thanks to Ally & Nancy . We’ll be back 👏👏

Does what it says on the tin. Nice sports bar, service and food are all good

Super cool place, local bar, best place!

So yesterday a few friends and I went there to play pool. Have not been there in about 5years (used to be a good place). The tables were all dirty and a lot of maintenance was happening around the area (almost empty). We asked the bartender to please send someone to clean one table but never showed up. However, we consumed 3 Beer Pichers and a few shots, a total of about $120+ (each pitcher was $19 but with tax and "tips-included" each was like $27) smaller pitchers compared to other places (the bartender charged us each time before releasing the pitcher). When I asked the bartender to at least exchange our glasses for cold ones, she became very upset saying "She should charge for tips no matter if the job is done or not, to respect her job?" (we brought the pitchers and glasses to our tables-she just poured the beer into the pitcher). The tips should be earned, not taken from your clients! In addition, since their pool table was getting the balls stuck in it every 10mns we we forced to call them to release them. Please fix the place and the attitude. Thank you.

After waiting for our drink, bartender finally came back and gave us a menu. She never came back to get our order. I needed to use the restroom so I stood and went to where she was, and she looked at me and continued refilling the straw container. A waitress at the end of the counter saw she was ignoring me and walked down and offered to help me. After over 30 minutes of waiting, she finally came back to check on us, and I asked for our check. She wasn’t busy; there were only two others in the bar/restaurants at that time. There‘s no excuse for rudeness. If we had been ugly to her, I would understand, but we weren’t. I can’t comment on the food because we never got any.

We are from Chicago and looking for a local spot with good vibes to eat and enjoy a few cocktails. This place was just that! Amazing food with plentiful portions, attentive service, and friendly "cheers" patrons. I honestly can't wait to come back on my next trip.

Found this spot after a short walk on the docks. So good that I went 2 nights in a row while on vacation in Miami. The food is absolutely amazing. The portions are extremely generous. Service is tremendous. Sarah was my waiter and everything she suggested was fresh and delicious. 10/10 will be back. This is a big enough reason for me to travel back to Miami.

I love fish and chips... I'll ad them to my list of great fish and chips. Its like a batter breaded mix they cooked it in.. So good😋

This place is a construction site and not a very nice one either.

Highly recommended this company. Guide was very knowledgeable, kind, and funny! Comfortable seats. The experience was great, something you should do!

The dive of dives. Love this place.

Mike's is a big improvement over my hotel bar next door, the Miami Marriott. Good service, decent food but one star off for no beer on tap.

What a dive bar. It’s seen better days, for sure!

Absolute gem in Biscayne Bay for those who appreciate a cool place with a great vibe and yummy wings! The owner, Sarah, and her loyal regular patrons I met at the bar made us feel 100% at home during our visit the night before our cruise. Highly recommend stopping by for margaritas and genuinely great people.

Fun, Friendly, Festive neighborhood bar! Huge Spirit, Ice Cold Beer and Wine Selection , large dining room area with pool tables with an Irish Sports Bar Vibe. French Onion soup 🍜 is 🔥 🔥🔥, Traditionally made Classically served. Stop in a say hi to Sara for a great experience

If you're looking for an affordable place to lounge and watch a game or play some pool this is it!

The food was fine, but the staff and music were really annoying.

Great little spot and out of sight.

Patty melt wad great! Fries were hot. Blacken Fish sandwich was fresh and delicious. Service could have been better but at least I got a smile. The roof is under construction but still got a decent view.

Awesome sports bar! Great food and service. A bit tricky to find, but worth it once you get there!

Great food, awesome atmosphere, and great staff. Visited three nights in a row. The steaks are good and the drinks are nice and right.

The bartenders are amazing but the place is falling apart. You can do worse in Miami Irish pubs though!

I have been coming to Mike’s for years. It’s a straightforward, no frills bar. In simplicity, it’s brilliant. I thought it couldn’t get better, but I recently visited and ordered the grilled Mahi-Mahi Caesar wrap…incredible. I forget what a refuge this place is.

Nothing compared with the pictures and draft beer tasted horrible

Horrible experience! Bartender is super rude & has no people skills! Overcharging my credit card! I highly don't recomend going there you will be disappointed ☹️

Lugar con viata muy bonita pero pesima atencion,No lo recomiendo y me descriminaron note racismo atrncion muy malisima:y pocos amablrs

Lugar con una vista bella ;pero muy racista!...fuimos victimas de descriminacion;que describir la forma ;seria no terminar;un lugar que no lo recomiendo especialmente para Latinos,porque el racismo es super remarcado;bastante aburrido para mi gusto;y pienso que por esta zona hay super lugares para escoger mas exepcionales;mas amables ;con buenisima musica y lo principal;con un buen customer service un RACISMO increible;y si buscan alegrarse y pasarla bien con buena musica hay muchas mejores opciones:atencion pesima ;el personal NADA amable:casi y te tiran la ristra de platos en la mesa ....hay mejores lugares que pagas tu dinero no para recibir un maltrato

This place is amazingly gross. It’s on the 9th floor, and traveling up there was already a little sketch because everything is so run down. It’s just a dingy sports bar overlooking a boarded up pool area. Everything was so dirty. We should have just left but we stayed and eating the mediocre food was a mistake because it’s making us sick now.

Beer options were limited but the price was best in town. Legit dive bar. Sketchy elevator and proper dive bar aroma. But don't skip on food. Good prices and good quality. Tried the pizza and chicken zingers one night and they were real good. Also had the grouper fried with a caeser salad and onion rings on a different occasion. Was great and price was only like $15 for that.

Pizza was greasy af and gross. Beers were warm. Service sucked.

Best bar Miami, best staff, awesome locals

Hey I’m not done here yet but it’s pretty rad so far.

When you guys pay me I give you a review.

I ordered the seafood trio with onion rings and OH MY GOD was it good! I'm thinking I'll go back tomorrow night for another while I'm in town. If the picture doesn't sell it, then seafood may not be for you. Came with a side salad as well, mmmmm

Googled bars nearby our hotel and Mikes came up. Immediately reminded me of our local bar back home. After the sketchy elevator ride we were warmly greeted by the bartender and servers. Sat outside and got amazing service from all staff. Beers came fast and were delicious. As was the food! Buffalo chicken dip was best we have ever had. Pizza with house made crust and sauce also super delicious. Thanks Mike’s for making our one night stay in Miami so memorable!!

Dive. Like really. Apparently a sports bar, but they don't put on UFC or boxing. Pass

These clowns deserve a 0 star. Reviews lied about the food being good, it was ok. Place was an eye sore. They charge you for a gratuity, I never wanted this!

Some of the worst food I've ever had. The staff were also super slow and screwed up the order. Would never come back.

Our server Beatrice made the experience over the top. She was very knowledgeable and friendly. The food was basic bar food and the drinks were STRONG so that's a plus. Their take on a lemon drop was delicious, it's $5 so try it, if you trying to get lit and quick get a long island it's straight liquor.

Great sports bar and restaurant.

This is a great place for an afternoon drink; affordable for a Canadian. I came at 3.30 on a Thursday and it was empty, but it's a decent space with a small patio and a pretty decent view of the cruise ships. Apparently it's in a condo. You take the elevator to the ninth floor. The building is being renovated as of this review, so it appears the pool is closed.

What can I say about my favorite bar in all of Miami! I've reviewed this before and l'I review it again! Hands down the best bartending staff in town and a bar who really takes care of their clients. Heather, Aly, Chelsey, Susan, Eli, EVERYONE! These bartenders are phenomenal, spectacular, stupendous... I don't have enough words to describe these individuals, cause they are all truly amazing. It's definitely not your typical bar, it isn't something glamorous or fancy, just a great bar to catch the game, hang out with friends, play some pool while playing your favorite song over the jukebox and enjoying the libations! Listen... if you want to have a good time while having really good food and enjoying a well made drink, look no further! ***Special shout-out to Heather and Aly for ALWAYS being on point and just plain being awesome!*** If you happen to go to Mikes and talk to these wonderful people, let them know you saw my review and that's why you're there! You'll see for yourself why they're so flipping great!

Bottom line this place is great. !!!!! Food! Service ! Staff ! Clean!will be back. Just happened to see the place as we were driving around Miami. Very friendly place. Wish we had one in Texas

We picked a bad time to go here. The soccer game was on. Food was ok.

Worst bartender ever !!!! I special the lady from Venezuela she screamed to the customers

the worst service ever. got food two hours late. never got any water. server was so rude to us. sad

The place is a bit of a dive but the food was very enjoyable. The staff were very friendly but not always available for service, so more staff would have been good.

Only real dive bar in downtown Miami. They sling out some great food at great prices.

Coole Sportsbar im 9. Stockwerk. Feines Essen. Die Preise sind eher hoch.

Great service , friendly staff .

Pool deck area still under major renovation so we lost the view. Saturday night they have special Steaks and at 6 PM they had 1 and the place was empty. Left and went to Bryson's for a great Saturday night steak.

Traveling from Key West and looked for a nice quiet dinner before going to hotel. Do not go if you want a balcony view as its under construction. When we got there, didnt seem very busy, definitely was a local watering hole, but decided to stay as it got good reviews. Music was way loud, food took way long and wasnt that great. Service was pleasant and accomodating. Its a bar and we should have found a place more suitable. Flip a coin

Hotel bars at the Marriott and DoubleTree were ripoffs so come here instead! Go into the hotel and take an elevator to the right as you walk in to get to the sports bar. No frill, just cold beer. Exactly what I need.

Great hole in the wall dive bar

Chelsea was an awesome bartender! Great bar !

Hermoso lugar, increíble atención, la comida súper rica y los tragos muy buenos también.

Best place to be if you don't want that miami crowd, this sort is a very chilling, cool spot with pool tables and jukebox, brings are cheap compared to other places a d the food is very good and always changing the daily specials

1st time here and absolutely LOVE this place. Bartender Chelsea was AWESOME. She was so nice and very helpful on our beer and food selection. Chelsea knows her beers, which we find that isn't common. She explained what they were. Also, Chelsea was very informative about the food choices. We'll definitely be back when in Miami. Also, well staffed, didn't have to wait for service and all the bartenders checked on us when our drink was low. ❤️❤️❤️

Hidden gem on the 9th floor with a good view of Brickell Miami. Great food and awesome service!

After much talk, I decided to visit this lil spot conveniently 4mins away from my hotel (double tree). The atmosphere was great, and the staff was super nice and helpful with recommendations. I was a fan of the two beers I was recommended(COLD) and the garlic shrimp. Everything seemed reasonably priced and their menu full of delicious choices. This is were the staff stepped in and helped me pick something out. The view outside was obstructed from construction but nonetheless, I enjoyed myself!

Low class employees. Hostess told me and my companion to sit anywhere. She didn't give us a menu. We waited 10 minutes before a waitress acknowledged our presence by telling us to wait with a hand gesture. Another waitress approached the table next to us and had it not been for those patrons telling her we were still waiting on initial service, we'd have been ignored again. The waitress finally walked over asked us what drinks we wanted, but never offered recommendations. When we asked for a menu, she pointed to a scan code sticker on the table and told us with an attitude to scan it with our phones, then walked off. We got up and left at that point. I wouldn't recommend this place based purely on the lack of service. It was not busy at that time and I saw more employees just huddled at the end of the bar talking amongst themselves than tending to customers.

My second time here. Great ambient, the short rib was really good. Highly recommend

My favorite is coming here and coinciding with other friends that enjoy this place. Great place to have a drink after a concert. Love the location. Gracias for everything.

Phenomenal food, view, service, and prices for it's quality. At first we had some trouble locating it, but are so glad we kept persevering. 10/10 would recommend to a friend, hope to come here again soon

Outstanding. The views were partially blocked by construction, which was a little disappointing, but the food surpassed all of our expectations enough to make up for it. We ordered the blackened Mahi-Mahi sandwich, the fried grouper, pizza, nachos supreme, and a salad. Everything was fantastic. The wait staff was friendly, helpful, and attentivea. The only other downside was the weird entrance through the condo building. But the pros outweighed the cons enough to still push me to keep the 5 star rating.

Sarah, Allie, and Heather were great. Enjoyed ourselves immensely. We entended to have an appitizer and a couple drinks, and ended up staying for 4 hours The girls are very down to earth. We will be back when we are in the area.

Me perdieron las llaves de mi auto en el valet, me tuve que volver a mi casa en uber, al otro día me llamaron que las encontraron, volví en uber y no fueron capaces de ni siquiera devolverme el dinero de los uber

Seemed overrated and overpriced in my opinion. Maybe I'm just cheap, but (when you count in the tax) for a hotdog is too much. I got the House Dog. I will say it was tasty, but nothing super impressive. Maybe I just came in with really high standards and felt let down.

My coworkers and I frequent Mikes once a month. This time, poor service and SALTY RAW and ROTTEN scallops and Salty unappealing mahi mahi has caused us to look for another restaurant.

Cool bar, good drinks good bar food!

Great food and a very wide stock of local beers....

This place is bomb…. Love the bartenders they are all super nice

Sue... thank you so much for taking careof me and my family. You were so fabulous. Cheers

When I did direct marketing, this is the first place I went to for crew night. On my last day of direct marketing, this was ironically the place where crew night was held again. I had a lot of fun and learned a lot from others. The staff were very helpful and friendly along with sharing recommendations as well.

Always a good time, especially during football sunday.

Sue and Andra are wonderful! Nice environment, food, and drinks!!! Tourist are welcomed here! ☺

Good local bar, reasonably priced drink prices and good food. Great view

Great sports bar with a good selection on Biscayne Bay

Great local pub. Food is delicious, beer is cold, servers are friendly, not expensive at all. I love this place

Once you find the entrance totally worth it!

Great for watching sports! The service is wonderful! The food is delicious! Drink choices galore! I recommend the Buffalo cheese dip, it’s my favorite and I get it every time! The Buffalo zingers are yummy too and if you want a proper meal they got you covered with meat dishes, fish dishes soups, salads, you name it they got it. Love this place! It’s always lively during football season, oh and they have seating both inside and outside!

Best rooftop dive bar you never knew existed! 5* if pool ever finishes construction...

Had Mike's sandwich, it was delicious!

Food and service are great. Go in hotel and ride the elevator up!

Saturday night 16oz Porterhouse steak is delicious!!!

Very cool classic Sports Bar. The food is great, the service is phenomenal and the atmosphere is perfect. Whether you sit outside with a stellar view of the Miami skyline, or sit inside with TV's playing any relevant sport, you're gonna have a great experience at Mike's.

Old school sports bar in the most unlikely of places. Must check out.
