If you like your food (or your drink) the way you like your blues—gritty, honest, and unassuming—then this almost 100-year-old joint will earn your respect. This is Miami's oldest bar and restaurant, and it manages to stay up the latest, too: The kitchen is open until 4 am, and there's a live band every day of the week, making this hangout one of Miami's low-key gems. The Road-burger is a popular choice, as are the appetizers such as nachos and chicken wings, and the chili worthy of a fire hose. Fine single-malt scotches are stocked behind the bar.
