The 17 Best Bars in Downtown & Brickell - Miami - The Infatuation

"Mama Tried is a bar that wears a lot of hats. The little Downtown spot can, depending on the night, feel like a dive bar or a cocktail bar or a post-work Happy Hour spot. They have good weekly and monthly event programming, like a very popular emo night. It’s the kind of place you end up after midnight, sweaty and ready to dance on their red carpet, which is shockingly clean for a carpet inside a bar. It’s mostly simple well drinks and beer, especially when they get busy on the weekends. But it’s a fun spot if you’re in the mood for loud music and maybe a shot or two." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
