"For those who want table service without forced bottle service, Medium Cool is the place to go. This velvet-clad basement bar is equal parts swanky and vibey with live DJs every night of the week. Order drinks at the bar while dancing to the music, or snag a table where everyone is treated like they’re a VIP. Opt for one of the large format cocktails for easy drinking — the Cold AF Martini is always a crowd pleaser or the Pornstar Martini if you’re looking for something on the sweeter side." - Amber Love Bond
"Medium Cool lives in a pleasant sweet spot between club and cocktail bar. If you’d prefer more of a cocktail lounge atmosphere, come earlier, particularly for the jazz night (Thursday through Saturday from 7-10pm). After 10pm, the bottle service crowd starts to arrive, a DJ replaces the live music, and Medium Cool becomes an intimate club. The cocktails are solid and the crowd is much more tolerable than 99% of the South Beach bottle service spots. The key to a good experience here is knowing what kind of vibe you’re after, and timing your visit accordingly." - ryan pfeffer, mariana trabanino
"Medium Cool is a bar in Miami co-owned by Dan Binkiewicz, offering a unique drinking experience with a focus on quality and creativity." - Nadia Chaudhury
"The late night scene at Medium Cool looks and feels more like an intimate club than a cocktail bar. But if you come here for jazz night (Wednesday through Sunday from 7-10pm) you’ll have a wonderful time even if you normally have an allergic reaction to the words “bottle service” (which is a thing here). The basement bar is a lovely place to hide from the crowds of South Beach, drink a daiquiri, and nod along to a trio of very talented jazz musicians. The cocktails are solid and the room isn’t too loud to bring a date either. Just know that after 10pm, the club crowd will start to arrive, so plan your exit accordingly.
