"There are two Happy Wines in Miami. We’re focusing on the happier of the two—the one on Calle Ocho where the walls are more scribbled on than a dive bar bathroom stall. This Spanish spot is a great place to eat tapas with friends while listening to live music. Start by picking a bottle from their racks. They’re all marked at retail prices (you just have to pay an additional $10 fee). Then grab a table near the stage and enjoy croquetas with cherry salsa and octopus a la parrilla with smoky romesco while listening to performers sing everything from flamenco to yacht rock. The place gets loud and crowded with West Miami parents on date night and millennials who grew up coming here (probably because their parents couldn’t find a babysitter)." - Virginia Otazo
