"Blue Collar has always had enough regulars to justify a dining room bigger than a tool shed. You come here for massive portions, one of Miami’s best cheeseburgers, and a menu of comfort food classics the entire family, no matter how chaotic their tastes may be, can agree on. This is all still true now that Blue Collar has moved across the street to a bigger space. But a few things have changed (for the better). There are more tables, a slightly expanded menu, and a new cocktail program, which includes generous martinis." - team infatuation
"Blue Collar’s burger is representative of Blue Collar’s best traits: no hype, all quality, and always leaves you 12% past full. There is no special sauce or smashed patties. It's not new or trendy. It’s just a thick hunk of blended NY strip and brisket covered in american cheese and served on a golden Portuguese Muffin—which we put right up there with the potato bun in our own personal burger bun rankings.

"Dads have a notoriously low tolerance for nonsense, a trait this MiMo classic is devoid of. Blue Collar is a (to borrow your dad’s term) straight shooter. The filling entrees appear exactly as described on the menu. And some of our favorite dishes read like a vision board of dad dinners: a dry-aged cheeseburger, spicy oxtail, chicken parm, and t-bone steak. Blue Collar used to be tiny and often had a wait that would make a dad frown. But since they moved across the street to a bigger space, we haven’t had to wait more than 90 seconds for a table (and you can make a reservation just in case).

"In search of a hearty, stick-to-the-bones type of brunch? Blue Collar has got that covered every day of the week. Find artichoke Benedict, latkes, French toast, and even a spicy oxtail plate." - Eater Staff
"Chef Daniel Serfer knows comfort food, and that’s what patrons will find here, but on the high end. Steak lovers will appreciate the dry-aged cheeseburger, which is a New York strip blend with lettuce, tomato, onions, pickles, Cooper sharp cheese, on a soft Portuguese muffin, served with thick-cut fries. Pair it with a cold brew and maybe even add the beer-battered onion rings. Those who visit during happy hour (Mondays through Fridays from 4 p.m to 7 p.m.) will save $2 on this meal. Best for: A steak lover’s burger" - Stacy Moya
