Empire Social Lounge (Brickell Location)

Very nice upscale cigar lounge . Decent selection of cigars. Nice bar area. Service was okay.

This was a nice lounge however I felt blindsided when I got the receipt.There was no cocktail menu or food menu but $30 a drink is ridiculous, even for Miami. Additionally, they had no food so we had to UberEats. My friends and I had a 8 drinks, and the total price was 300$. I will attach the receipt but this felt deceiving considering there was no menu to look at prices.

Empire Social in Brickell is a cigar lover's paradise! From the moment I walked in I was greeted by the well dressed Raphael, the manager, who was extremely knowledgeable about the large selection including hand rolled cigars from Indonesia. Empire also has an impressive bar to pair your cigars with the drinks of your choice. I shared some 007 thELight II (tm) film stories with Raphael. He was shocked. Only down side is they should carry pipes and pipe tobacco. Hopefully next time I arrive pipe tobacco manifests. I am sure to return with cast and crew for a great smoke and cocktails during the two days of filming of thELight I film in Miami and Miami Beach in late September, early October, 2025. The overall selection of cigars is absolutely phenomenal, offering an impressive range of premium brands and rare finds that cater to every palate. Whether you're a seasoned aficionado or a curious newcomer, there's something here for everyone. The ambiance is upscale yet welcoming, perfect for relaxing with a fine smoke and drink. The place is ideal for socializing. What truly sets this place apart is the exceptional service, especially from Manager Raphael and attentive staff. His knowledge, warmth, and genuine passion for cigars make your visit memorable. He goes above and beyond to recommend the perfect cigar and ensure you feel right at home. I highly recommend Empire Social for an unmatched cigar and cocktail experience!

An empty room full of arrogance. This place manages to be pretentious without having a single customer to justify it. I sat down in a completely vacant bar and ordered a Macallan 12, only to be told my seat was “for six people.” Six imaginary people, apparently. I was then instructed to move five feet away—because rules matter more than reality here. I canceled the drink and asked for water. Not sparkling. Not bottled. Tap water. I was informed—without irony—that they don’t have tap water. At that point, I declined everything. I was only there so my friend could smoke his cigar. Despite being told explicitly that I didn’t want a drink, the hostess returned with a pour of Macallan anyway, clearly hoping to stick me with it. That alone tells you exactly what kind of operation this is. If not for basic courtesy to my friend, I would’ve walked without paying a cent. This place isn’t upscale—it’s delusional. Rigid, tone-deaf service wrapped in empty-room snobbery. Avoid it entirely. The lack of patrons isn’t a coincidence—it’s a warning.

We stopped by before our annual Thanksgiving week Caribbean cruise...nice lounge...but I was underwhelmed...service was acceptable...reviews mentioned that this is possibly the best cigar lounge in the US...absolutely not...the setting is commendable...high back chairs...dark chocolate paneled walls...great liquor selection...but these are common characteristics of upscale lounges...Would I return? Probably not...with the exception of me being able to say I smoked a stick in a cigar lounge downtown Miami...there was really nothing memorable about my experience...drinks were adequate...my stick burned ok...which I'm always appreciative for...they do offer military discount...again...for a guy that travels the planet hitting cigar lounges...didn't quite hit the mark for me...a lil stuffy in my opinion...and I LOVE the finer things in life...this thing I adore requires attention to detail...not just pretty waitresses...I could go on and on...but I will stop there...if you're in the area...stop by...you'll pick it up immediately...

Big fan of the Ft Lauderdale location so gave this one a shot. It didn't disappoint. Very high end, great selection of cigars/drinks, and service was excellent.

Update... Stopped by here again on my trip to Miami, this is one of the top cigar lounges in the country. Fantastic!... Empire Social is a spectacular cigar lounge located in the heart of Brickell. The space is absolutely beautiful. They also have a diverse selection of cigars for sale as well, with some cigars for purchase being very hard to get. This place is by far one of the nicest cigar lounges that I have ever been to. Not since the now closed Grand Havana Room in New York have I been to a place this good. Needless to say, I highly recommend it here and can't wait to see how the new location in Ft Lauderdale is going to turn out!

Great vibe...nice lounge for a whisky & cigar while watching the game. Good selection in the humidor as well.

Still a nice humidor and spacious, comfortable lounge. But, my last couple visits service has been weak. Tonight was a long wait to order. The place wasn't busy, but two servers and the bartender were shooting the breeze at the end of the bar with nobody taking orders or making drinks. When my drink finally arrived, it seemed that the bartender had not expressed the oil from the lemon peel on top of the martini. However, the server was friendly when she finally showed up. And, after the initial long delay she was proactive asking if I wanted another drink. Also, the other server checked on me several times.

In town for Art Basel, our cool STK server said you guys need to make a trip to Empire. We're normally loyal to Espanola Cigar lounge while in SOBE, but hey, let's take a 20min ride and see if Empire could compete. One word.. YES! The Brickell area is JUMPING and Empire fits in quite well. Located on the lower level of a HIGH END condo high rise, Empire looks as rich as the people who live there!! Huge leather chairs, oak all around, and the best Bourbon/whiskey selection I've seen in a while. With a phenomenal stogie selection to match. The bar was crowded, but we were able to snag a couple seats shared by four cool patrons. We chopped it up for a couple hours and had a bunch of laughs. I absolutely love meeting new folks at the bar! Empire has the absolute best filtration system I've ever experience. It reminded me of Civil Cigar lounge that I'm still sad shut down in Bethesda :(!!! If you're a cigar lounge fan, then definitely check out Empire your next South Beach trip.. you will absolutely love it!!!

Very nice place. Very mellow cool crowd. Very nice selection of cigars as well as wines, cocktails and spirits. Great place to hangout, socialize and network. Of course it's Brickell.

Real classy joint, a great place to go for a drink and a stogi with the boys. Well prices cigars & the guys behind the bar brought that 5 star service. Had the abuelos old fashioned, absolute money! Paired it with an Arturo Fuente 858, was a great sesh with the homie.

Stopped in for an after dinner wine down and cigars. Nice vibes, cigar list and drink menu. The music was nice as well. If smoke doesn't bother you, it's definitely a cool lounge to check out. The ladies weren't however the friendliest servers I've seen.

60$ for a Johnny Walker black is disrespectful - it was a double and a great pour- but it's not even a high quality drink . Just feel that's important to know- no need to include 20% gratuity for a drink Honest feedback from a Miamian

If you enjoy cigars and a solid bourbon or scotch, this is the place to go. The staff and service were awesome and engaging. Empire has a vast selection of cigars and the space is spacious and comfortable. I can't wait to visit again!

Empire is a great cigar lounge that is nicely perched on the second floor. They have seating on the ground floor that welcomes you on both sides of the entrance. Some sit there and watch the street-level scene pass and walk by. Go upstairs and you are greeted by a welcoming hostess. One would be advised to make reservations here during peak times. I fortunately know one of the managers, Rafael, who managed a cigar lounge in NYC. He took great care of me and other friends two nights in a row. This brings to mind one of the strengths of Empire: the staff and operations. The other managers, Byron and Alex are running the humidor and the floor of the place, looking after everyone and everything. Brittany, the mixologist, was steadily making great drinks both nights behind the very well stocked bar. She was making any and everything, shy of frozen concoctions. They also have a selection of wines and rare spirits in their own glass enclosed cases. They serve a great charcuterie platter that was quite impressive: cheese heads and salami fans rejoice, with a bowl of olives to boot. The wait staff and bussers are looking after everyone. One of the strongest points to Empire is their air handling and air conditioning. I don't care how hot and humid Miami can be and it's been hot this summer, you will be kept cool in this lounge. Some might even find it a bit chilly. It matters not how crowded Empire can become, particularly on the Friday night I was there, the air handling and filtration was superb, the best I have ever experienced by a long shot. Smoke disappears and your clothing will not smell of smoke when leaving Empire. Women will greatly appreciate this, especially not having smoke in their hair. This is truly a dateworthy cigar lounge. There is an abundance of comfortable lounge seating with sizable tables for all those drinks, ashtrays and charcuterie boards. There are several flatscreens behind the bar and others are located on pillars and columns so that everyone has a view to a screen. There is a members only section in the back that is quite large in its own right and a bit quieter when the rest of Empire picks up later in the evening, that sometimes features a DJ. The members have a very nicely appointed locker room and the glass enclosed humidor is large enough for the discriminating aficionado. You'll appreciate the six clean restrooms that can accommodate the capacity of this lounge. The front of the lounge has floor to ceiling glass overlooking the street and the ambient lighting of the lounge keeps it cozy and relaxed, with individual mini table lamps for an added touch. If you're a BOTL or SOTL, Empire should be at the top of your list when in Miami.

Being back here for the first time since 2016, we were most impressed with Oscar from the moment we sat down until the end of our experience. He went above and beyond, making sure we were not just looked after but got what we really wanted and even went to look in the back for something. He really genuinely cared about us and the time we were having, and he is extremely good at what he does. The multi-tasking and tuition were above par, I hope everybody appreciates him and the experience as much as we did!

What a night to remember me & LaShanya got to hang out with Manolo from Scarface the movie it was great to be so close to home.

This location profiles guests and bullies guests based on appearance and racial profiling. I was formally dressed with suit and my fav baseball cap and was forced to flip my hat or leave... after the aggressive and unprofessional manager I simply walked out with our group and took our business to City Cigar Lounge a few blocks north. Avoid this discrimination and racial profiling and go to any other cigar lounge. Anyone I know will know not to give these people future business.

Great spot to have a cigar, drink and chill. Wait staff was very helpful and the prices were very reasonable. Definitely worth the visit to see if you want to do some kick back and smoke

If you are a Cigar and Whisky connoisseur, then this is the place for you. I am not. However, I went to support my friend that had a DJing gig that night. The ambience is very chilled and laid back in an upscale type fashion. I did not eat here, so I can't say anything about the food. The service however left a lot to be desired. It wasn't that busy and most of the bartenders and servers where hanging out at the end of the bar chit-chatting. We were a party of 5 and had to get up various times for them to take our drink orders. I've been here one other time and had a better experience at that time. Here's a few pics for your viewing pleasure.

Cozy, with decent cigar selection and prices for cigars seemed reasonable to me. I went on Wednesday evening and there was live music, very good. Welcoming reception staff and helpers. Would recommend!

This is one of my favorite places in Miami to wind down and have cool vibes. The service is excellent and the manager is the best of the best. Will continue coming and bringing people with me. Highly recommended.

Excellent service great ambiance very friendly staff and great selection of fine cigars. A must visit if your in Miami Cheers

This is a great lounge for a great smoke and some drinks. Very friendly staff. Huge selection in the humidor. The vibe is a cool vibe. Place to chill and relax and watch the game or meet new people. Tons of seating in these comfortable leather chairs. Places by the window or in the center of the lounge. They have a huge members only area with some large screen TVs separate lounge area for more privacy. Drinks are excellent. All top shelf spirits. Huge beer and wine selection. After you make your cigar selection they will go ahead and cut it to your liking whether a punch a V cut full cut or Crown cut. You decide they cut it. Take it to the spot you want and the server will bring over a soft flame to light your cigar. Great place to sit back and relax. Met some really nice people and enjoyed the game with the locals. Stop in and enjoy. Beautiful lounge.

My boyfriend and I were looking for a lounge where he could smoke a ciggar we came across this place walking distance from our hotel . Very clean nice place . I was very impressed that Oscar went out of he's way to get me the drink I wanted. We will definitely be back

TLDR: Really nice cigar lounge in Brickell. Would I go again: Yes, if I'm in Brickell and want to smoke. Drinks: The menu is really catered nice to cigars. If you appreciate smoking than you'll appreciate the menu that offers proper pairings. Service: Very fast, friendly, and welcoming. Ambiance: This is where they make their money. Tables are spread out nice so you don't feel on top of other smokers, they have TVs in ideal spots if you want to watch a game or listen to music. The best part, is the way the ventilate the building so you don't having lingering tobacco smoke.

Was turned back on the door for wearing a T-shirt. we could see at least 5 guys wearing tshirts inside. Spent 200+ a day before.... While wearing a tshirt. ... clowns

Food, service and Ambiance were exceptional. Even when the other 8-9 of our party showed up and crashed the party, The League of Extraordinary Canadians, the staff was very accommodating and I wouldn't expect that for such and overly large group.

Was refused entrance or service at 1:30 am when operating times show that location is open to 3am was told that time is depended on volume. Even let staff know that had flown into Miami and Uber to location and ask could be let into lounge due to the fact that the operation hrs are wrong on website giving false info was told no they will not let me in .do not recommend visting. Also guess where still inside location seems as if lounge may be bias to who they let in .

This place is truly a class act --- The staff, patrons, and everything is upscale and I highly recommend for you to stop in. even if you're not a cigar aficionado ---it's perfect---the drinks & the atmosphere allow you to enjoy conversation while sipping & puffing the night away.... THE END

A very elegant place for real men and cigar connoisseurs! Comfortable masculine environment! I recommend

Our first stop in Miami's Brickell neighborhood, an excellent choice for premium relaxation with a scotch and cigar. ESL tonight boasted boxes of the MONTECRISTO 1935 ANNIVERSARY. Number 2 Cigar of the Year for Cigar Aficionado! My friend and I split a box of these tasty Nicaragua series toros. This stick is a tribute to the original blend of the first Montecristo cigar, created in 1935. Soft-pressed delicacies, this Montecristo delivers a smooth draw, medium-full strength, and a roasted pecan start up, with a consistent build to a full finish. We stationed ourselves first at the bar where we lit up and ordered beers, bourbon and scotch, chatted up Jean-Marc, the bartender, and got to know the local patrons. After a few minutes we retired into the more comfortable leather sofas and arm chairs for an evening of Cuban jazz. ESL is spacious, well ventilated lounge with a professionally staffed walk-in humidor. A few outdoor seats and vestibule on the street level belie the atmospheric society that comes alive after an elevator trip to the second floor lounge. Best social club in Miami, and it's only our first night!

very cool place. chill music. nice selection cigars. Great for networking and meeting business contacts after work. Friendly service

rafael was very helpful suggesting diff cigar options, especially a more local/regional brand for miami. spacious lounge, great selection of cigars, comfy chairs, extensive bar, chill vibe in a great location. will def visit again next time i am in miami

I do like my cigars and whiskey. The Casa de Montecristo by Prime Cigar bar in Brickell is a great spot to go, with a nice selection of both. Being that the establishment is close to my office helps if I need a smoke and drink after a long week. The cool part about this cigar bar is that it's two floors. The first floor is more for those who need to buy a quick smoke and head on the way to their next destination, with outdoor seating situated on the sidewalk. The second floor (via elevator) takes you to the actual main area, with a bar, vast lounge with plus leather chairs and sofas, walk-in humidor with a solid selection of different cigars by producers such as Padron, Ashton, and Illusione to name a few, and a private lounge for VIP members. Price-wise, tends to be more expensive than other cigar bars I have frequented in South Florida, mostly due to its location in the Brickell district of Miami, I suspect. But this is more a moot point if you're looking for quality whiskey and cigars -- and Prime has both. My most recent excursion had me enjoying doubles of Jameson Caskmates on the rocks while savoring a Ashton for a good hour and change. Needless to say, I possessed a nice buzz as I walked to the Metrorail to catch my train on the Brightline. Prime had a nice crowd on this particular Friday afternoon, with both the lounge and bar filled with patrons done with the workday or visiting for their weekly/ daily fix. A lot of 30 through 50-something business professionals who enjoy good smokes and drink -- my type of crowd. Do note that if you're coming from outside of the Brickell/Downtown Miami area, parking will be a challenge. Most either have parking permits or like me, commute via train. For myself, Prime is a greatly needed spot for aficionados who are looking for some good smokes and drink to start their evening or take a breather.

Good Selection of Cigars, drinks are amazing. Ambiance is very relaxed, servers and bartenders are Fabulous.

My new favorite place to relax! This is the ultimate gentlemen's cigar lounge. My girl had a few coupons for us to go check it out and since I just got my real estate license this was the perfect gift to go celebrate with. Don't be fooled by the small entrance outside. It looks just like a small cigar store but it's a lot more than that once you take the elevator to the lounge area. We were immediately greeted and taken care of by Sr. Operations Manager Joel and were very grateful for that. The inside ambiance is classy, sophisticated, luxurious, and relaxed. The ultimate gentlemen's experience which I was in love with right away. Leather chairs, couches, tv's, full bar, and giant humidor were all part of the experience. A huge benefit is they have ventilation fans so it's not cloudy or smokey inside. The giant humidor has pretty much any kind of cigar of choice being cut however you prefer. I went with my favorites the Java Maduro with a v cut and Acid Blondie cut the same way. The comfortable leather chairs, luxurious ashtrays, whisky on the rocks, and great conversation while puffing my Java Maduro made me feel on cloud nine! The bar has a great selection of liquors, craft beers, and spirits so you won't be disappointed. Thank you to Joel Capin and the rest of the staff for making this a night to remember. I'll be back many times.

Always a great time here at Empire lounge. This place is the prefect get away from the daily hustle and bustle that miami is. Their lounge is nice and spacious and has a large bar. They have a nice variety of cigars to choose from. There is also a member lounge in the back that make it nice to have a small gathering or host an event. There are plenty of comfortable chairs and tables to sit at and lounge with the boys to de-stress.

I was invited to visit Empire Social Lounge for a buddies going away party a couple years back. I don't usually frequent Brickell but I do love a snazzy lounge where I can sip whiskey and have the option to smoke a cigar. Honestly this establishment is just a whole VIBE: laid back, amazing prices, and great seating. I actually really miss it so I'm planning on visiting again soon now that things are somewhat going back to normal.

Elegant cigar bar with excellent pricing. I found all Padron cigars here a lot cheaper than most places I've recently been to in NYC, LA and here in Miami. They have a full bar, TVs everywhere and the service is close to white glove. Really enjoyed the ambiance. Will be back.

Visited this really nice cigar bar that is located upstairs. They have an elevator which lets you off to the lounge. Although I am not a cigar smoker I enjoyed a lemon drop. However, my friend enjoyed her cigar. We sat at the bar and the bartender was pleasant and attentive. It is dimly lit and has a lot of wood accents. They also have 2 tables outside if you want to enjoy the views.

Very disappointing!!! When you look at there website, it says nothing about a clothing attire. They do have a dress attire, only for men. But you don't get told that until you walk in the door. Shorts and a tee shirt will not work, which I would be fine with. That is something that they should put on their website for people to read and come with the proper attire. I was looking forward to this experience since I am from Seattle. Being able to smoke inside with a cocktail is something we can't do up in the Seattle area. But was not able to participate because of the wrong attire. Frustrated & embarrassed patron Ryan

We briefly stopped by here the other evening while my friend was visiting the neighborhood for his birthday. He wanted to visit a nice bar in the area, but most of the places we saw were a little too closely packed for our liking. Trying to be cautious during these COVID times, we looked elsewhere and ended up at Empire Social. Formerly known as Casa de Montecristo, this place has been around Brickell for several years and always seemed interesting to me. My boss got me into scotch whiskey, so I've been meaning to check this place out. The actual upstairs lounge is much bigger than you'd think. It was stocked with plenty of comfortable leather chairs and distance between patrons. Their menu is very extensive. We only had time for one drink each, but will certainly be back soon! Our ever so brief, first impression of this place was excellent. Prices seemed fair for the area, and the vibe was much more relaxed versus some of the other places we checked out that night. My Smokey Old Fashioned was excellent, as was my girlfriend's Heaven's Door. My friends opted for beer, but will try some of Empire Social's vast whiskey offerings next time. Can't wait! PS: I also saw they opened up a Dadeland location, and will be sure check that out as well when in that area.

Great vibes, fantastic cigars, and mind-blowing tunes! The drink selection and cigar selection are absolutely unbeatable. The atmosphere is perfect for kicking back, having a smile on your face, and sharing a good laugh.

We used to come here in the evening every time we were in Miami when this place was still "Casa de Montecristo". The lounge is on the second floor, but they also have a couple of seats outdoor on the street. They had a nice big bar, comfy chairs and a good selection of cigars. The drinks have been always pretty expensive, but the ambiance was great, the waiters very attentive and we loved to spend a couple of hours to chill (while sometimes listening to live music). What I loved of that place is that even if it was packed, you could not smell the cigar smoke at all! We returned to this place last month for the first time after about 3 years. The name is different but nothing has changed inside, so the ambiance is the same (including the expensive drinks). However, this time we couldn't stay to chill as we used to because the cigar's smell was so overwhelming, although it was in the middle of the afternoon and the place was almost empty! Also, according to my husband, the person in the humidor was not very knowledgeable, and there wasn't a cigar selection as extensive as before. Not sure we will stop here again when visiting Miami.

Great spot. Went during the day on a Friday. Friendly staff, good drinks and a great cigar selection. Lots of seating and big selection of bourbons.

We went to visit them for one of their live performance nights. I'm not big on going to brickell, but I'm happy I went. The parking was far as can be typical for a Friday night in Brickell. You walk into a small entrance downstairs and then take an elevator upstairs to get to the actual cigar lounge. Service was excellent, from the waitress to the manager. We were very impressed with the extensive selection of liquors. The cigar selection was also really good. There is no food to eat here, no appetizers, so make sure to eat before coming. The vibe of the place was really, really nice. The live music was excellent. They must have some amazing extractors because it wasn't smelly, stuffy, or hazy inside the place despite it being a cigar lounge. We were 2 couples and we all enjoyed the place. We have recommended it to friends and will definitely be back.

*First Impression * "Have I made it? Feels like i'm about to meet with a mafia boss" *Ambiance* This everything you'd want in a lounge. Comfortable chairs, great mood lighting, very high end and luxurious looking. Amazing air filtration since I could barely smell or see any smoke. Perfection *The Waitstaff* We only ordered drinks and they were pretty attentive without being annoying. They cleaned out the ashtrays frequently which was a great feature. *The Cigars and Drinks * I had my usual cigar and avoided trying cocktails because their alcohol selection was pretty amazing, so I just ended up trying rums and whiskeys I never had before. *The Price* This is where they will remind you that you are in Miami. Every drink starts at $20, and don't forget there is an additional 18% on top of everything in Miami. So while I paid MSRP for the cigar (which was great), drinks were pretty expensive for a single pour. Conclusion This is definitely a place you'll enjoy with your friends or maybe even a date, but be ready to shell out some cash because it is definitely a very expensive, high end spot. At least for those of us who do not live in Miami or Los Angeles.

Awesome cigar bar! From the humidor, to the knowledgable but not pretentious host who went over their selections, to the friendly host in the bar who seated us, and our lovely hostess everyone was super friendly here. Great atmosphere with lots of comfortable leather seating options, full bar with all of the top shelf cognac, and whiskey options, and live music from 9pm to 11pm, the artist was playing blues music , and several big screen TVs playing boxing fights. We throughly enjoyed ourselves! A nice perk it is literally a block away from our hotel the JW Marriot. Close to lots of other eating establishments and bars. Highly recommend this place if you enjoy cigars and good drinks in a classy and friendly environment!

Amazing place. Owner is very professional, knowledgeable and friendly. A man of his word who isn't selling cigars just to sell cigars. He knows what he's talking about! I had a great time. Cheers!

Great atmosphere, nice servers and bartender and the $23.00 martini was a bit of a shocker.......

The service was great! The humidor was fully stocked. And the ambiance was excellent for a cigar lounge. I would definitely return when back in Miami.

Brittany, Alex, and Joel made sure my first experience would guarantee I become a regular patron - even though I live in Pembroke Pines. The. Drive. Is. Worth. It. A very good friend (Christopher)decided to host his birthday party at Casa De Montecristo. It's important to know that the group is Caribbean and I was the first to arrive on time !!!! Upon entering, the most friendly hostess let me know to head upstairs to get our reserved seating area. Once upstairs, Alex greeted me, cracked a couple Jokes, and immediately had Brittany come over to get my beverage! He was extremely attentive to our group (and other parties) the entire night. The atmosphere of the lounge was relaxed. Leather seats, huge humidor selection with a knowledgeable professional guiding you towards that perfect smoke. A DJ played from 9pm-11pm. We shut the place down - last to leave and the staff NEVER ONCE MADE US FEEL RUSHED!!!! I love it - we were basically treated like members of a private lounge even though we weren't. they worked so hard we shared our pizza with them! Listen...don't let Brittany go - she was great! Words can't describe her ability to make everyone comfortable. She was personable and professional! I could say so much more, but I want you to experience the excellent customer service, cigar selection, drinks , and overall atmosphere. Thank you again for making my friend's birthday celebration an absolute phenomenal experience! I felt like a celebrity with my entourage if I could I'd give this place 10 stars!

I walked here one night after dinner Bc I needed to buy my friend Neri a cigar to celebrate her birthday the following night... The Brickell Location is Perfect for me! Inside, it was dark yet inviting and the staff was very helpful! I bought her a cigar which the guy who was helping me recommended, Bc it was very strong! For me, I wanted a Romeo y Julietta cigar... (he pointed me to the lightest one! Lol) The hilarious part is that since I am not an avid cigar smoker I don't really know how to cut it, or start it off... Therefore, after explaining that to him, he opened it for me, cut it, and step by step walked me through the process! (& he didn't laugh or make fun of me... which I thought was very polite, Bc I definitely would have laughed at me!)

Located right on South Miami Ave., this is the perfect spot for cigar bar. This is 4th time here. This is an upscale cigar lounge now with a fully stocked bar and a fantastic selection of all drinks. The humidor is amazing and the staff are attentive and welcoming. This is not your typical cigar lounge. Brittany and Bianca are wonderful and treat you like royalty. Casa de Montecristo Prime is finally a cigar lounge that is chic and it is located right in Brickell. It's very private so you do need to be looking for it. If you are into upscale lounges with beautiful scenery and an epic selection of cigars and libations then this is your place. Bonus is this is not your typical smoky lounge so you do not come out of there stinking of cigars. Will be back. Love this place!!! Back again sitting at the bar with Senator and the service is stupendous. Javier, our bartender is a true gentleman and jack of all trades. Attentive but not intrusive. Truly exceptional. Thank you Javier! You make Prime Cigar what it is 5 stars!

Love this place. Very nice. The staff was awesome. If you are not comfortable with the selections the staff will walk your through all of the selections. Very nice ambiance, very nice atmosphere and certainly a place to unwind. A lot of drink selections and cigar selections. The place is very secluded and it makes you feel at home. I will certainly be back. You should check them out. If you do tell em drew sent ya Be easy Drew!
