"This Palmetto Bay dive bar might be a trek for most, but the prize at the end of the drive is its drool-worthy wings. Flavors run the gamut from traditional buffalo, jerk, to honey-blackened, but the crowd's favorite is the spicy garlic." - Jennifer Agress, Olee Fowler

I have to start off by saying I love this location. As far as my review I do not come here for the food so don't take that to heart. The food is some part at best normally. The drink prices are spot on and I have no issues with my beers at this location ever. The beers are served cold with no sour tap taste. The service is generally good I would highly recommend coming in the afternoon for the best service. Highly recommended as a location to go to hang out as it is a very friendly local establishment. 6-16-25 I don't know what to say anymore. No one is watching this hen house anymore. The service quality has dropped to a 1 star. The last few times I have come in I have left without service. Today is no different. Today both servers got within about 3 ft of me and not as much as a hello or what do you want drink. Keep in mind I'm sitting at the bar. The young lady walked up and served a beer to the person sitting next to me. I did not get a smile a hello or give me a minute. A minute later the gentleman working the bar served a person on the other side of me. No surprise didn't say a word to me. This generation has no idea how to properly run or work in this type of atmosphere. I need to learn to only come here when Sam is working. Come on Sam find better stuff. 7-3-25 happy days Nicole saves the day...

This was an amazing find. Don't tell everyone. It was packed when we entered, waited about twenty minutes to sit, well worth it! Burnt ends and brisket.... amazing. Marshall was fantastic.

This literal hole in the wall is one of my favorite places to go for a beer on draft, they serve them ice cold in a almost frozen cup and the food is really good. On Tuesdays they sell delicious dollar tacos. The service is great too. I go so much that the waitresses know which beer I drink as soon as they see me. Definitely recommend.

I'm confused by some of the low ratings I read on here. Maybe these people came in during the busy hours and had a unique experience to the one I had. AVERY is my man! Great all around service and awesome attitude. Please show him some love, these are the people lifting up your business. Service was great, food was amazing, hell I had to order another round of Buffalo shrimp. The chips were fresh! The fries were honestly the best fries I've had in a long time. Right amount of texture and crisp. The ribs were STRAIGHT FIRE. I thought "damn that's not a lot of BBQ sauce" but you guys knew we didn't need sauce for these ribs. Flavor central. These ribs didn't wanna make me slap my momma.. they made me wanna slap everybody up who left 1 star reviews.... catch me outside I've been to the location in Kendall which was great as well but you guys are awesome, we'll be back!

Great place for family dinning, group or solo. Clean, good atmosphere, nice people. Food is excellent, not expensive. Philly cheese steak sandwiches, burgers, chicken wings, etc.

First timer and we had a really great time . The bbq food was delicious . We had burnt ends and ribs with their home made fries

A true hole in the wall! Not a large restaurant but a nice off the beaten path neighborhood restaurant. A place to watch big games on the 15 different screens! Staff was pleasantly friendly and made helpful recommendations on the menu. Keto friendly foods, chicken wings, bunless burgers, salads, etc. The wings (Spicy BBQ) were okay along with my bunless burger. Bar seating available along with high and picnic style tables. This visit was during the week around 1400 not crowded and plenty of seating. Will visit again.

Great cozy place to watch a Panthers game or your sport of choice on one of their many TVs. Enjoy a very cold one with a great burger or an excellent blackened Mahi, both with tasty fries as an option.

Very friendly service and loud music! Stopped here for brunch, had beef brisket with fries. We were greeted with great service and warm chats, he frequently checked if everything was good. Sports bar ambiance with bench seating, and also few tables as well. The place was busy but the service was prompt.

Kind of the "Cheers" of Cutler Bay. Food was served quickly and perfectly done. This is a local bar flavor and all were friendly

Jordan K.

Great bar and food. Nice bartenders. Great atmosphere. Slow to get food because of the small kitchen but good place to hang out and wait so no big deal.

Fire wings, cold beers, good place to watch a game or just have a meal. Feels like a "cheers" type bar.

I love this particular location of Hole in the Wall. Service is always friendly and accommodating, and the music sets the vibe for the establishment. A few things you should know up front - being that they're located in a strip mall, parking can be a little hairy if you go at certain times. You'll find a spot but it may be a little farther away. Secondly, there is no table service so you need to order all food and drinks at the bar. Our favorites are the chicken tacos, wings, beef brisket, smoked fish dip and french fries. Yes, fries! Hole's fries are cut thinner, and they season it with salt and a little sugar (maybe?). I don't know what they do to those fries, but I could sit there and eat a full basket without any issues. They offer happy hour specials with half of drafts, and taco deals on Taco Tuesdays.

Yelp
You can go to any location- they are all the same - awesome. Fun atmosphere whether you go for a game or just hanging out with friends (you'll probably make new ones too) Not to mention the food is amazing. Go on Tuesdays for $1 tacos you'll be pleasantly surprised.

True to its name... hole in the wall is a hidden gem with great food and drinks. The staff is friendly and quick and they're quick to strike up a chat by the bar and make you feel welcome. This is honestly the best part and what always makes us come back... feeling welcome by the staff is crucial.

Inoffensive place to get a fairly priced beer and wings with some friends. Service is friendly and attentive. Chill spot

Great cheap beer is on the top of my priority list. This hole in the wall is small and cozy, with about 7 tables inside and 7 more outside. The first time I came here I tried the dry rub wings, fries, and burger and they were all pretty good. The second time I came with friends and the food was a bit disappointing. The magi tacos were a bit too fishy and the wings were really salty. The brisket sandwich was pretty yummy though, although be warned it's drenched in bbq sauce. As for service, very friendly and warm!

Jen H.

Yelp
The blackened mahi tacos are tasty with fresh fish. They come either 2-4 per order w a side of tortilla chips. The 2 was plenty...... left there feeling super content. Service was friendly, quick, and efficient. We will definitely return with a jacket lol, it is a little chilly until your food arrives!

Ericka G.

Yelp
Straight up came here for wings, beer, and a cool atmosphere. Tucked away in a small plaza is another cool hole in the wall bar. People are friendly, jukebox on deck and wings come out flying. They've got other great things on the menu like tacos, burgers, buffalo shrimp, fish dip, fries, etc. you know the drill ! And all are good but my craving here are always the wings. Choose the style, seasoning, and fire (you like it spicy or not) either way you cant go wrong and my boys (hubby and lil brother) love the chill vibes!

Lea S.

Yelp
We're regulars here, the staff is always professional, quick and makes you feel so welcome. I just had my wisdom teeth taken out, haven't had any solids and I asked for just a Mahi filet by itself. This is a great way to treat your customers, they went above and beyond to make the order special and DELICIOUS. I really enjoyed that. This location is the best.

The strong oder of sewage permeated the entrance and throughout this tiny dive bar. I didn't eat here only had a quarter of a beer because I was still full from Top Golf. My friends had wing and said they were good. I don't pick this spot however, I hope to never come here again. The smell was gross and someone in my party said the restroom was a nightmare. I hope they fix whatever is wrong.

This is the first time I have ordered from this location and I have to say that I am less than impressed. I ordered two grilled chicken tacos and a half Caesar salad. The meat in the chicken what's raw and the tacos did not have all the fixings as they have labeled on their menu. There was no sour cream, barely any cheese and one pico de gallo that look like it was extremely old. The half Caesar which they charged $6 for a bunch of lettuce and a couple of croutons was also very unimpressive. There's actually supposed to be shaved parmesan cheese on a caesar salad and they put none! That was also stated on the menu but not put on my salad. Although I understand the price of food has gone up quite a bit, the least you can do is serve food that's fully cooked and give your customers what they pay for per your menu. I will not be giving them any more of my hard-earned money. I recommend going elsewhere.

So the Menu the waitress gave me day's Blackened Mahi Taco 2 Tacos $8 4 Tacos $12 dollars. Order the four was told you can only have 3 tacos. Showed menu to waitress was told it was an old menu. So why hand it out? Food was good Tuna Philly. Service not a strong suit. Waitress busy BSing.

Didn't know whether to give this place one or two stars but I will go with two stars. This is my second time here but the last time was over a year and a half ago. I liked coming here the last time. The place is exactly what it's named...it a hole in the wall located within a strip mall. When I came I ordered a beer along with a hot dog and fries...typical bar food. My boss ordered the tacos. Big difference in the quality of food. The hot dog tasted great...fries were good and of course the beer was cold and refreshing. His tacos sucked. First they were small and had little meat within the tacos. When you look at a taco and think wow you could have done better at Taco Bell...that's not a good sign. When we finished our meal we looked around for our waitress but she disappeared. Seems her shift was over and we saw her eating her meal at the bar. Took us a heck of a long time to get anyone to come and get us some new beers. Service was disappointing and the food was at least for one of the party I was with pretty bad.

Usually go on the weekend and sit at the bar with my wife. Always receive great service from the staff. They're awesome. The food is good, the beer is cold and the price is right. Can't ask for more!

If your ever in the mood for Tacos and it happens to be a Tuesday, come here, period. The offer is that with any drink all Tacos are $1. You can't beat that anywhere locally. I hadn't come here in quite some time, but the craving for tacos was in full affect on a Tuesday. The place was slammed, as expected, but I was fortunate enough to get a table too fairly quick. Service itself dragged a little, even after sitting down and saying I was waiting for my wife, no one approached me for a drink until about 10 minutes in. That was the only downside to being there. Food wise, went with the steak, ground beef Tacos and they were delicious. They come with lettuce, cheese and sauce.. I also had an order of wings which were pretty spicy yet well cooked and filling. Lastly, fries are always awesome here, they're freshly fried and crunchy.. and they taste as if they were freshly cut from the potatoes. Although the start wasn't great with the service, they made up for it afterward with their food and service. Will come again.

I've been to other hole in the wall and lately Their food is horrible and the service too But this one is the worst never coming here again How do you burn wings that are fry??? The fry's greasy...

Used to be my default wing spot, but the quality has diminished a bit since COVID-19. The chili was very good but now it just tastes like sloppy joe in a cup. Hopefully they can recover and bring the business back to normal.

Dayanara A.

Chicken wings are amazing!!! I have also eaten the seared tuna, which tasted very good. The tuna is also healthier and accompanied with a salad makes this meal have less calories.

I been hearing from coworkers about this place but never had the opportunity to come in. This week a friend of mine invited me to lunch and I finally made it here and let me tell you I regret not coming sooner.. the staff is super nice the brews are super cold!! the best part was the food, I had the half rack of Ribs and boy oh boy they were Delicious!! I will be a regular customer from now on and will bring my inner circle to hang out with me here. 5

Unbelievable! I'm wondering if I'm invisible. Came in sat at the bar. Told the bartender that I wanted to place an order to go. She handed me a menu and never checked back. Five to ten minutes go by and she left the building. The new bartender literally checked on every other customer on the joint. Meanwhile a regular came in and was served right away. I'm at the bar with nothing in front of me but a closed menu. I'm trying too make eye contact with the bartender and it's as if I'm not there. It was crazy. The regular was sitting one stool away and the bartender came over and started making small talk with him. I was so turned off that I walked out and threw open the door. WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER!! This review was supposed to be posted a couple of weeks ago. Today's service was MUCH better.

The food was Delicious . Service was awesome . Crispy fries and saucy wings . The wings were my favorite I had honey BBQ and it was great! Food came quick and was not expensive. Basketball games on the tv for entertainment. I recommend for a good lunch

Yelp
I like the food here. Their wings are really good! Personal favorite the teriyaki. If you want to go healthy, they have a mixed green salad that's huge! You can top with a protein. I have also tried their mozzarella sticks, tacos, and nachos which are a gigantic serving. I wish they had a smaller version. Generally, a cool place to hang out and have a beer or quick bite. The staff is young and generally friendly. Only pet peeve: they bring the bill a second after you order. What if I want something else???? #food #foodie #foodblogger

Ordered my food to go .. came pretty close to closing time but I was hungry. Ordered the jerk and honey chicken wings. The six jerk wings were salty and you could barely taste any honey on the honey wings. But I remember going to the other location and the wings were a lot better then. But I'm going to chop it up to that they were getting ready to close. But I'm willing to give it another chance. Because how good the other location was.

Eddie C.

Yelp
Great place and great people working there. The blacken fish sandwich is the best. The beer is always cold!

Daniel M.

Yelp
Awesome!!! One of my favorites. The chicken wings are really good, hot or mild. The fries are really good and thin, a taste all of its own, as late g as they don't over salt them. The Cesar salad is also one of the best I've had, wether plain, with chicken or Mahi-mahi blacked. They have a good pulled pork sandwich, which my daughter gets all the time. They have lots of TV's .

This is definitely a locals place. This is the place we bring our kids after games, or after a long week or just for an afternoon lunch that requires a beer. I'm reading the bad reviews and I'm shaking my head. Yes, the place is small but once you get a place to sit, service is great. Friendly people. And the food is made with love. Very yummy. Great wings, great tacos, great tuna. I do wish it accommodated more people so that more of us can come together in a bigger crowd.

Lynette R.

Best wings, fries and tacos! Totally obsessed and delicious! Our family local favorite spot

Cheap sports bar good to grab a beer and watch a game at. The food is the typical mediocre bar food you would expect. The prices for beer are great. I wouldn't come here to eat but wouldn't mind grabbing a beer and watching sports. It's a small place as the name suggests so seating is pretty cozy.

Bring a flare gun so you can get someone's attention because that is the only way you are going to get any service. I don't know if it's done on purpose but the IDGAF about our patrons seems to be in full swing here. The place wasn't even busy & it still took 15-20 minutes to finally get someone to recognize us. I thought we must have been invisible at one point. It's sad too, because the food wasn't bad. Management, take notice. Your current wait staff is killing your business. I don't know if you need to hire more servers or just teach the ones you have better customer service. I'll never go to this location again.

Yelp
The food here is nothing fancy. In fact, it's sort of a guilty pleasure. If you've ever been to a redneck tailgate party, that's basically what this is (in the best way possible). The staff is incredibly friendly and efficient, the food is hot, satisfying, and ample, and the prices are right. Overall, a great place to grab a burger and a beer.

Emmy T.

Yelp
The food is always great. The seared tuna and the grilled cheese, while polar opposites, are my go-to items here. I hope they bring back the chowder that they used to serve.

Favorite local sports bar. Great selection of beer and the food is always fresh and delicious. Checkout their burgers or chicken tender salad and fries.

Good fast local food. Love the brisket and toast at 184th location. Outdoor dining always a plus.

Ashley B.

This place has changed for the better! The food is 100% improved. We ordered the nachos grande and they were delicious. We also ordered wings 1/2 medium and 1/2 garlic. The wings were meaty and flavorful. They have a new logo which is really cute. They have vegan and vegetarian options now as well. We will definitely be coming back. Before we didn't feel welcome in here like we were bothering the bar staff and now everyone is very attentive and very friendly!

Had bad experience two times trying to go to eat here.First time it said on website open til 11 pm on saturday nite.got their at 1030 pm and walked in and they said they were closed already and said sorry. then we tried again last saturday nite got a table and sat outside table then they said you have to order at window.10 mins went by went to order and what we wanted to order they were out of both pork and brisket. didnt bother telling us before hand when gave us menus earlier.had to wait on table to be wiped before we could sit down.not a happy experience.wont return here again.

Cathy B.

Yelp
Walked in and they pretended they didn't see us. They just stared at us with some sort of disgust. Finally some one came and said the kitchen closed in 30 min. It said otherwise online. A restaurant should treat everyone with respect even if they are to close in 30 min. We didn't plan to ruin the restaurant's day. We were in the area and it said open. One of the girls seemed extremely upset and was just rude. Don't think I'll give this place a shot again, due to non existent customer service and just plain rudeness. It's best to talk and let me know what the issue is instead of staring at us with disgust and moving your mouth in the back.

First time coming here and wow! Brisket tacos were out of this world. The French fries were so freaking good. Ribs were good, tenders tossed in sauce amazing

Taco Tuesday was a hit with my family.. It was pretty busy but we only waited for 10-15 mins for a seat. Between the music and the ppl it is pretty loud but not bothersome.The tacos can't be modified but that was ok bc they were great as is. You also get to choose from chicken, steak, pork, or beef for the same price. My family's fave was the pork tacos. The service was good. We'll definitely be coming back.

Patrick B.

Just sat down and waited 15 minutes and not a single server acknowledged we were even there. Got up and went to PubGrill and were served immediately. Customer service is non existent at Hole in the wall.

Miami's best kept secret. Always located in a very discreet location. Sam makes the best wings in town and buy his fish fresh and directly from local fisherman. Beer specials at happy hour are awesome!

Love Hole in the wall! The pulled pork is amazing!!!! And if your lucky and they still have the Burnt Ends, those are also a must have!

i don't come here too often, but i do a lot of takeout from here because the food is simply off the chain. their bbq bacon burger is hands-down the best bbq burger i've ever had and i've had A LOT of burgers. for $13, you get this burger + chips. it's worth every penny

Veronica J.

Yelp
I was looking forward to trying this place out so my BF and I came here for a snack of sorts. I have to tell the service has got to be some orf the worst that I have experienced. Seems to me that if you are not a regular here...forget it. To order my food I had to walk up to the bar after waiting quite a bit for someone to take our order. Mind you the place was not busy at all. We ordered 10 wings mild, grilled and and order of fries. I found the wings to be a bit on the salty side and the fries...well the fries reminded me of Five Guys fries....very greasy.

Evan A.

Yelp
This place delivers exactly what you would expect by the name. It's dark to the point your pupils hurt when you re-enter the Florida sun after a happy hour adventure. Decent beer on tap and dollar tacos on Tuesday. Nothing fancy, but just what you want from bar food...nutritionally sketchy yet satisfying.

This is the second location for Hole in the Wall, the original being at South Dixie Hwy and SW 144th Street. This location used to house Irish Tavern South, which closed some months ago. It's larger than the original location. It's a beer and wine sports bar, with, by my count, 16 television screens on the walls. There are about 12 stools around a U-shaped bar, several high-tops around the periphery, and communal picnic-bench-type seating on the floor. I stopped in to grab lunch, a brew, and some of the 'Canes game on the second day it was open. There was basicly no parking left in the lot, so I parked across the street at the South Dade Shopping Center, which has plenty. The bar was pretty crowded, but there were plenty of waitresses, and one waited on me moments after I was seated. I had a dark Sam Adams (don't ask me which one) on tap, served in a traditional pint glass. Hole in the Wall was allegedly founded by a guy from Keg South, which was known for its burgers. So of course I ordered a burger! Two sized are offered - regular and large. I ordered the regular, which looks to be about six ounces (see uploaded photo). "All the way" included lettuce, tomato, onions, pickles and cheese, with chips, according to the menu. Fries can be sustituted for the chips for $1.50, which I did. I ordered one "all the way" done medium. My basket of burger and fries looked great. Hot and juicy burger, and seemingly fresh-cut fries (although frozen-fry companies can be tricky). I took a big bite, and hmmmm, checked the burger - it was well done (over done for me!). Well, it was still pretty good, and I didn't want to wait for a replacement. I took a fry, and ... uh-oh, this fry needs Viagra. Limp as can be. Not fried properly. Oh well, they were tasty. Then I was munching on the burger, trying to be analytical, and I realized the cheese was missing! [sigh] I also ordered 30 wings to go, half "hot" and half "blackened." They were packed and bagged nicely, and I tried some when I got home. The "hot" was good, although kind of mild by my standards. The "blackened" had some cajun-style blackening seasoning on them. They were pretty salty for my taste, so beware. Your milage may vary. By the way, the wings are grilled, not fried. The markings and flavor of the burger indicated that it was char-grilled, too. OK, cheese forgotten, burger overdone, fries maybe rushed. I enjoyed my visit, and the place was not yet opened for 24 hours, so I reserve any harsh judgement. Hopefully it will smooth out, although parking will probably continue to be problematic during weekend hometown football broadcasts.
