"There’s that saying about getting right back on the horse after it bucks you off. Taking a heartbroken friend to Over Under is a little like that. Sure, you could come here for a reasonably calm cheeseburger and martini during happy hour. But we’d suggest going on a Saturday night at midnight and shoving them right into that sweaty mass of strangers rubbing all over each other by the bleachers. Most of them are probably single, at least two drinks deep, and hopefully not toxic (but no guarantees there). That, plus a strong frozen cocktail with an additional floater of rum, is the kind of exposure therapy they need." - mariana trabanino, ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo
"Is Over Under a bar or a restaurant? Yes. And that’s why it’s so fun. Roll up to the narrow Downtown spot on a Saturday night and the place will be split between people dancing and people wiping cheeseburger debris from their chin. It’s a beautiful chaos that works as long as you don’t mind shouting or bumping into strangers on the way to the bathroom. But the menu here is no afterthought. Their Florida-focused bar food is great. The later you stay here, the wilder things get (and they don’t close till 3am Wednesday through Saturday)." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
"If you are in a cocktail-appreciating mood, try to go to Over Under during the week, when it’s a little less busy. You’ll probably spill your oyster shell-infused martini when things get shoulder-to-shoulder on Saturday nights. But just because it’s fun and loud does not mean Over Under isn’t serious about their cocktails. Not only do they all fall within the $14 range (tragically, a steal for a good drink in Miami these days), but they are balanced, boozy, and expertly stirred and shaken." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo
"Over Under has a self-deprecating sense of humor, an unbothered attitude, and likes to throw dance parties until well past most reasonable bedtimes. But it also takes its food very seriously, and this place is sneakily one of Miami’s most consistently delicious restaurants. If you want something reliably amazing between bread, perhaps paired with an excellent cocktail, this is where you want to be. The cheeseburger is as great as everyone says, but so are more recent additions to the menu like the catfish po’boy and blackened shrimp slathered in chili butter and served with roti. Yes, Over Under is still the most fun place to be in Downtown at 1am on a Saturday night. But don’t forget about them next time you’re making dinner plans." - ryan pfeffer, mariana trabanino, virginia otazo
