Social 27 Supper Club Opens in Little Havana in Miami, Florida | Eater Miami

"Tucked on Eighth Street in Little Havana, I found Social 27 Supper Club to be a bright, colorful spot that blends traditional Cuban flavors with modern techniques across a sprawling 3,000-square-foot space. Chefs Justin Sherrer and Lisetty Llampalla lean into Nuevo Cubano cuisine with many shareable plates—cheesy bolitas de yuca with gruyere and honey, decadent fish croquetas topped with Kaluga caviar, and a daily fish crudo dressed with charred sofrito and leche de tigre—while heartier options include short rib vaca frita braised in red wine, a unique Spaghettini in Parmesan dashi cream and aji amarillo, and the Mar & Tierra, a 10-ounce New York Strip paired with prawns. The cocktail program keeps Cuban flavors front and center (the El Viejo Fashioned uses Bourbon, basil, miel, and blackberry bitters), plus an assortment of beer, wine, and bubbles; there’s a weekday happy hour from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. with a $10 cocktail menu featuring mojito and piña colada and food options like an ahi tuna taco and crispy tuna tartare. Live Cuban music from a three-piece band plays nightly Thursday through Saturday, and the interior—tropical murals by local artist Diana “Didi” Contreras, lush greenery and suspended floral arrangements contrasted with neon signs and glowing chandeliers—creates an organic yet contemporary vibe with indoor and outdoor seating that looks onto the neighborhood. I also noted practical details: Social 27 is open at 2555 SW 8th Street (hours vary by day) and reservations can be made at 786-703-9210." - Olee Fowler
