Hate Mondays Tavern

Went to Hate Mondays Tavern for the first time yesterday and it was a solid experience. I love trying different food items that I wouldn’t usually try so I went with the smoked salmon melt and it was pretty good. Flavor and cook was on point, the pan con bistec was pretty solid as well. It definitely needed a better crunch tho the classic thin chips would’ve been perfect. The truffle Parmesan fries were good as well. Service was good nothing spectacular but not terrible. The ribs are very good as well but I expected them to be a bit more tender more fall off the bone. The brisket tostones were a standout for me the smoky brisket balanced with the onions, sauce, and crunch of the tostone was perfect.

Came here with few friends after biking. Love the uniqueness as definitely the food was delicious. Everything had flavor and good size portions. Pan con bistec was super flavorful along with the potato salad. Will come again and try other things on the menu.

What a cool spot.... Oh and the food was Amazing. We had the ribs and the brisket. Both just great. Topped off with fired oreos, who could go wrong. Staff was friendly and engaging. It's a hole. In the wall that's well worth the visit. Will definitely be back

If I was able to give Hate Mondays 20 ⭐️ I definitely would. This tavern was by far the best bbq spot in west Kendall. Chef Karl is such an amazing person and chef. He really goes above and beyond what he stands for in the art of cooking. Service in the restaurant was amazing. Whom ever reads this review. I don’t care what you’re doing. But you have to stop by Hate Mondays and try the food. The smoke wings were delicious and just perfectly cooked. The loaded fries omg were amazing. I would have posted a pic of the pork belly. But unfortunately it didn’t last long enough. And to top it off I ordered a smoked turkey. It looks amazing and I can’t wait to devour it. Thanks Karl!!!! Oh yea, almost forget! The Brisket was so good forgot to take a picture.

The definition of hole in the wall restaurant!! Don't let the location drive you away. The food is absolutely amazing. Great BBQ in a very unexpected location. We ordered the Brisket, short ribs and baby back ribs. All were delicious tender and on point. I will be back if I'm ever in the area.

This place is mind blowing! Everything is so unique and so so great! I highly recommend multiple trips to try multiple things. Once you try there food and see the atmosphere you will become an instant regular! I will see you there on Saturday mornings!

Best BBQ in Miami Florida! The grill smokers are right in front so you can smell all the meats feom a block away.

I love this place, this the OG to Miami bbq in my mind. Literal hole in the wall spot, and the vibe is solid. Fire bbq, best I’ve had in the area for sure, hands down. As in Florida, and even in general. All the food is smoky, plenty of meat on the ribs or wings and no cartilage on the ribs. Straight meat. Beers are all sourced from Florida and from small brewers even which I think is awesome. Fire 🔥

Hate Monday's Tavern made our lunch unforgettable! The food was absolutely fantastic. The brisket and ribs were incredibly tender and flavorful--some of the best we've ever had. The corn nuggets were a delicious surprise, and the fish and salmon dip was absolutely superb. The service was just as impressive as the meal. The owner, Carl (I think with a K!) and staff were super nice, attentive, and genuinely helpful, making sure we had everything we needed for a great lunch. If you're looking for an amazing barbecue spot for lunch, this is it. We'll definitely be coming back for more!

Came here with my friend for lunch , was recommended here this bbq spot by a coworker I was not disappointed - def try the Mac n cheese and if you can mix with the pulled pork even better Great spot make sure to check it out

Another one of those "slap your grandma" good BBQ places. So far I've purposefully come on Friday's so I can get the brisket loaded fries which are literally the best thing on God's green earth. The owner is super chill and the place is in a warehouse but looks like a ship galley but smells like wood chips. There signs and patches and memorabilia everywhere. It's super small so you have to wait sometimes for dine in, but they are quick with the take out as well. Points to the lady at the front who offered cold beers on the house to the those waiting in the hot Florida sun for this better than sex BBQ, you da real MVP!

I cannot believe there are any negative reviews about the food here. I tried it for the first time and it was delicious! We had the brisket, baked beans and the chicharrones. EVERYTHING was so good! The staff was so friendly and sweet, we will definitely be back soon! I highly recommend this place!

I love Hate Mondays. I go on a regular basis, yet I had yet to try their breakfast. Today was that day & of course they did not disappoint ! I had the chicken & waffles ( I chose spicy ), the chicharrones, the loaded brisket fries & my brother got the skillet that had veggies, potatoes, sausage, brisket with an egg on top & toast. Delicious ! The Chicharones I think were my fav the sauce had this little kick to it & you want to dump everything in it lol & as always the service was top notch. Everyone is just so friendly & helpful.

My new favorite! Staff are fun and lively and the place feels like a bar where you know everyone- even though I didn't know anybody! Ha. The food was absolutely incredible as well! Can't wait to go back!!!

The first thing you will think when you find this place is the location (at least for me visiting from WA) but it was unique experience for me. Second thing you will notice is the decor - dollar bills - old license plates. Get there early since tables are limited and get ready for a delicious BBQ experience. We were lucky enough to get a platter of a variety of the meats they had to offer - started with the corn nuggets - fried to perfection and corny and moist - smoked fish dip with chips - the smoked fish so delicious . And finally the platter of meat - ribs - briskets - pulled pork - super tender, moist , and seasoned! Amazing . The staff SUPER. Nice. A true hidden gem!

5/5, I honestly don't know what else to say about this place. Such a backyard homey feel, the staff is so friendly and the food doesn't disappoint!

I had the Friday Brisket Special and HOT DAMN it was so good! This place was tucked away in a little spot & as soon as you go in it had that locals, if you know, you know kinda vibe. Was awesome, people were cool Oh and they were fast!

My wife and I went for the first time this Saturday. She had the Warehouse Burger and I had the Patty Melt and we shared chicharrones which the server said they don't make it much. But they doused it with spicy buffalo sauce. Why?? I told the server they were too spicy and she suggested that they throw them back in the fryer to take off the sauce. She brought them back doused in BBQ sauce. Totally messed them up. Other than this it would've been 5 star rating.

If you happen to be in that part of town in Kendall, it's a interesting place. Small crowded but the food is good. Burgers were good. I thought they were going to be better but still if you happen to be in the area I would try if I were you.

Key west vibes in hammocks. Loving the decor and all the money hanging from the ceiling. Service was fantastic and quick. I ordered the fried chicken sandwich. This thing was massive and packed so much flavor. Corn nuggets slapped and glad I went with the potato salad side. Love this place and staff.

10/10 BEST BBQ IN KENDALL! El Bearded Chef is the best, the Chef Special never disappoints!!!

Great food in a cozy atmosphere. Tostones and chicharrones are the best!. Great selection of beer as well and great service.

Food is legendary. Everything is delicious. They cook the meats right there. So many yummy choices. We just tell him to surprise us and it's always amazing. Fun atmosphere.

This place is the definition of a whole in the wall! I couldn't find it at first. I had to call the restaurant and they were kind enough to jump out and show me where they are located. Parking wasn't easy to find, we had to park down the road and cross the street to get to the location but it's not bad. Once we walked in we were greeted and told it would be about a 5-10 mins wait for two. There were a total of about 6 tables so it had a bit of a homey feel to it, which was nice. Some people may not like the closeness but it didn't bother me. All the servers were great, very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. We ordered some brisket fries and they were amazing! Between two we tore it up! We also had the Carolina pulled pork sandwich and it was also delicious! I would definitely recommend this location for some great bbq! Just wish they were open later!

The smoked salmon dip is to DIE for!!! I hate fish dips, but I would kill for this dip. The taste is so complex and beautiful! The chips it comes with is the absolute perfect compliment. The barbecue was ok but to be fair I'm not big on bbq meat. The coleslaw was ok. I like mine a bit tangier where this one was sweeter, but the potato salad was bomb. The vibe here was incredible n would go back just for that. Truly felt like family! The owner was sitting next to us and was so kind and so cool! The service was good and honest. The wait time was minimal. Would definitely suggest this place! Love how the location is a little strange. Fits the place perfectly

This place is must go ! , they have good variety of food and the service is fantastic !

Hidden Gem in Kendall Area! Let's just say that the two times I have gone their food never disappoints. The wings are delicious and their burgers are made to perfection! Want to have a nice lunch in a local stop this is your place. You would never guess that a place in warehouses would have such great food. The staff is very nice and helpful with recommendations.

Didn't take a picture, but the food here has always been top notch. The service is top tier with great selections of beers and it is a super chill spot too.

This place has got to be one of my favorite places. The food is very delicious Super awesome fire fire fire. Definitely if you're thinking about the place just come on down and enjoy some of their fire. Food pulled pork tacos. Wow brisket tacos serious had some ribs and they were delicious. Definitely must try and they have an awesome selection of craft beers. And the people super cool can't wait to be back.

Excellent service and amazing food. Been here a couple times and never dissapoints. And the cafecito epic. Thank you Lourdes for always treating us like family.

Cool vibe, cold beer and short ribs! It's a great stop. Highly recommend. Service was superb.

My first time here and I was left happy and satisfied . This restaurant executes top tier bbq with choices to match. Out of all the other BBQ restaurants in Miami, this is the best by far. My ribs was absolutely delicious, super tender, juicy and with the perfect smoky touch. All I can say is, the taste is on point! To top it off, their service is flawless - my waitress was attentive and friendly. Overall, the food is delicious and they've gained a new customer.

Best freaking burger I've ever had. Can't wait to go back for more! Parking isn't easy to find, so pile your buds in one vehicle. Well worth driving around til you find a parking spot, believe me. You will NOT be disappointed. I HATE MONDAYS!!!

O. M. G. This place is almost hidden as it's in a warehouse complex. But it's the 1st bay so you should find it fairly easy. Look for all the stickers. When you walk in it's not very bright on the inside but the ambiance is friendly and relaxing. Plenty to look at on the walls and the ceilings. They have money hanging and it's pretty cool to see the different things they have. The food is DELISH. I had the lemonade which I didn't care for as it tasted more like water with a hint of lemon and not much sweetness, that was my only disappointment. I didn't buy a Tshirt because it was funny and perfect for my bestie There was an array of people there from all walks of like. I LOVED that. It was like a BBQ melting pot of folks coming together to enjoy some great grub. Would I go back, YES. I highly recommend it for anyone and everyone. The staff is great and I love that the owner came around to ensure we were happy with our meal.

We had the tomahawk steak special. It was enough for two people and still have some leftovers. It was perfectly cooked tender and had a great smoky flavor. Had a salad and a soft drink. It was a great lunch. Will definitely be back to try this again.

Great service and great barbecue wverything....their corn poppers were also delicious!

loved the ambiance and all the decorative things on the walls. located in a small warehouse area with great bbq food!! will def be coming back to try other items on the menu. recommend the wings and ribs

Hidden gem. The whole concept of it being in warehouse but with the homey feeling was new but I loved it with the decor handing from the ceiling and everything. Amazing food, would definitely come back. The staff was so friendly and welcoming.

I've been there twice, once for dine-in and once for takeout. First of all, I should mention that some customers might be put off by the political views of the owner. He flies an upside down flag outside, has a sign on the door announcing there are no transgender bathrooms (I've never seen one at any business) and has a Let's Go Brandon magnet near the cash register. My in-person visit was at 2pm on a Saturday and we had a roughly 30-minute wait for a table for two. OK, how about the food? It ranges from outstanding to inedible; hence the 3-star rating. The highlights were the meaty ribs, tasty brisket and smoked salmon dip appetizer. The worst offering were the wings, which were overcooked to the point that the drumettes were dried out and the flappers were inedible. I asked if the burgers cook be cooked medium rare and the waitress said they could. Sadly, mine was served medium well. I am not a potato salad fan, but their potato salad is the best I've ever had. I had asked, though, for the cole slaw side.

Run, don't walk to Hate Mondays Tavern. We found ourselves here on a weekend around lunch and managed to grab the last table. The place is small, so come early or be prepared to wait! We had a few local beers and decided to share the Corn Bites, Brisket Loaded Fries, and Half Rack of Smoked Ribs. Everything was OUT OF THIS WORLD. The brisket was not fatty and tough, the ribs fell off the bone and were smoked to perfection. I cannot wait to go back and try more food!!

Absolutely amazing experience. Starting with the hospitality as soon as we walked in the door. Everyone greeted with a smile and although the place was full we were taken care of. Them came the food.... EXCEPTIONAL. Shared a few appetizers and had the chefs special which was delicious. Will definitely be coming back here to Continue trying all the menu items. Their signature burger was one of the best burgers I've had.

Small and quaint but won't disappoint. Tried the oxtail tostones - delish!! We enjoyed everything so much we ordered to go!

Absolute must try. Best food I have eaten in a long time!!!!! The flavor from the grilling was so good. This is definitely a passion for the owner.

Unpredictable place, hours and overall pretty good food and ambiance. Your local dive vibe. Enjoy!

When I say I was pleasantly surprised by this spot, I mean it. I'm honestly sad i found this spot on Yelp, because for how good it was I expected to hear more buzz about it. My husband and I literally drove around twice because we couldn't believe it would be in a warehouse lol. Turns out, it was. It's a super tiny hole in the wall and vibes are immaculate. We went on a Friday afternoon and didn't have to wait at all. They have a long list of beers and although they he lack of prices on their menu scared us, it was extremely reasonable for the quality of food we received. They only have brisket on Friday's and thank God we were able to enjoy it. Highly recommend the brisket loaded fries and the ribs!

The food was amazing. The staff is excellent cannot get better food anywhere. Best barbecue food place in the United States.

Once you enter you only feel good vibes! This id definitely a hidden gem in kendall! The food was phenomenal, the best BBQ we have had in a long time! We started with the chicken wings..... grilled and smoked to perfection! Next my husband tried the ribs, and loved them. It os such a big portion it fed him again as well as our son. They reheated well in our air fryer for a minute or two. We also tried the brisket which melts in your mouth, add a little Carolina sauce=heaven! They also have a vast selection of craft beers. To too it off...... the service was exceptional! We will be returning very soon

Great food, service and ambiance. The only thing the place is small could be busy at times.

We finally tried this place! We ordered ahead Togo which I'm glad we did because at 130 the place was PACKED which is also a good sign. I could tell there were lots of regulars there also a great sign. I'm a slaw fanatic and theirs did not disappoint! Probably the best I've ever had actually. Loaded Brisket Fries are a Friday special and Wowwww sooo delicious, enough for 3-4 people. Pulled pork sandwich was very good, would have liked just a smidge more bbq sauce but next time I'll just ask for some extra on the side. I definitely appreciated that they didn't put the pork on the bread this way it wouldn't get soggy. Half rack ribs were great and had a nice bark on them. Very nicely sauced. Philly cheese steak was very good and will definitely get it again! Smoked wings also very good but also could have used some seasoning and bbq sauce. Overall very happy with the lunch and can't wait to return....maybe on Tuesday for Taco Tuesday and get some pulled pork tacos and brisket tacos. Although I can appreciate masks being optional, I wore one due to medical situation and the employees were literally staring me down which was a little weird. Won't stop me from going again though. Thanks for a great meal!

Wow, you must come in and try this BBQ food, they are killing it. They carry amazing variety of beers, including one of my favorite Magic 13 islander... but more than that the food is smoked to perfection. Carolina Pulled pork- Uffff / brisket , music playing, people are actually enjoying themselves. Will not disappoint!! Is one of those secret food gems !

Good food, good staff, good flavors Can't pick what this place is missing but it is missing something Great! Selection in BEERS!

I went here for lunch with my friends and we loved it! We went for Tomahawk Thursday but they had rib eye instead. We had the ribs, brisket, rib eye, corn nuggets and onion rings and everything was amazing! The vibe and ambiance are very relaxed and the service was excellent. The owner and servers came to us multiple times to see if we needed anything and asking if we were enjoying our food. And the price was excellent! Definitely a hidden gem!

I love you hate Mondays, great and unique restaurant with plenty of options on the menu, all the food is delicious and the steak tacos are my go to!

Food is the bomb and the service was impecable my server was Lexi and she was on point with my order. Ambiance was a hole in the wall and very charming definitely coming back!

Amazing!!!! I took my girls here for girls day and the food and service was amazing! Customer service was great as well.. we will definitely be back..

I've eaten here a few times. My wife and I love the food, the ambiance and Karl is always very attentive. I contacted Karl a couple of weeks ago to cater for my baby's first birthday. I have to say that the food was on point, we got brisket, ribs, baked beans, potato salad and Mac and cheese. Everything was delicious and on time, I asked him to have it ready by 02:00 and Karl was already waiting for me at that time. Thank you Karl, I'll see you soon!

I can't stop raving about the tomahawk steak at Hate Mondays Tavern! It was perfectly cooked, with a juicy, tender inside and a smoky, charred crust that had me savoring every bite. If you're a steak lover, this place is an absolute must-visit!
