Pablo ReyesFebruary 28, 2017Go here quite often during my break between class and the service is great. Either of the sandwiches are well priced and absolutely delicious.
Aleksei SopunJuly 25, 2015Guys, believe me!!! That was the best BBQ experience in the whole Miami area!!!! Have a good pint of Raspberry lager and have a pulled pork plate! I would definitely comeback for ribs!!!
Terence ChanFebruary 2, 2015The Tyler pressed sandwich is correct! Pulled pork AND sliced brisket w/cheddar and pressed? Only a side of crispy spiced fries could make it better! Great service and beer selection too. Hidden gem!
Miami New TimesAugust 19, 2014The brisket sandwich is already legendary: a freshly grilled bun piled with juicy slices of prime beef imbued with smoky glory and spice-rubbed flavor. Read more
João Victor OliveiraFebruary 25, 2019Brisket sandwich was amazing. They have a great selection of craft beers.
L JohnsonMay 31, 2015This is downtown Miami, so parking could be an issue. This is a nice spot to gather with friends downtown before heading to the arena or some other event.
Jeff CApril 22, 2014Get the pulled pork sandwich! Owner (Kevin) is very nice! Did not have Perrier water, so he went around the corner and bought me one! Wow! I'll be back, and amazing BBQ!
The Pulled Pork Samich With Guava Habanero Sauce Is For Sure. Seasoned Waffle Fries Were Fiyah Too. Wash Down With Homemade Lemonade, Iced Tea Or Choose One Of A Variety Of Microbrews.
The beef brisket is legit. I also love the fried pickles, greens and baked beans. Also, if you like spicy ask for their magma and lava sauces.
Glenn EbertFebruary 23, 2013The best BBQ in Downtown/Brickell, possibly in all Miami. The homemade sauces are standouts, and sides are outrageously delicious as well.
Some of the best BBQ in all of Miami. I've yet to order anything that I did not love.
TingSeptember 21, 2015Unpretentious place. Prefer the beef brisket to the pulled pork. Decent BBQ chicken too. Worth a try if nearby, however not a destination.
Pulled Pork! Do yourself a favor and just order that now! You will not be disappointed!
Adam PalmerJanuary 31, 2015Great pulled pork, but the house beans are the real star of the show. Great value food but pricey for drinks.- Great burger. Order it with cheese only as to not interrupt the flavor. Add a little of any of their homemade sauces for punch. The secret's in the bun.
David Orland BrownAugust 24, 2012I am a TOUGH BBQ critic from North GA...& this MAY be the best I've ever had. Try Tyler's Pressed Sandwich...spectacular.
Leah WeinsteinDecember 8, 2012This place is delicious! They have a great beer menu and the service is great. Absolutely no complaints.
Manny RodriguezMay 24, 2011Tyler's Pressed Sandwich - Beef Brisket, Pulled Pork, Sautéed Onions, American Cheese & BBQ Sauce... With a Waffle Fries & Coleslaw for only $8.50! Nuff Said!!!
Charlie BearhamAugust 18, 2010The pulled pork sandwich is one of the best in South Florida. Tried the corn bread is sweet style but ok. The prices are good and the service is great.
Wendy MayerJanuary 17, 2012Try the pulled pork sandwich with seasoned waffle fries and the Mac and Cheese! It is amazing!
I am obsessed w the boneless smoked chicken thigh platter and Tuesday nights, Sparky deep fries them!
Christina BauerMarch 24, 2012Get the pulled pork and try all the different house-made sauces! So yummy!
Ricky RaynsOctober 20, 2011Dogfish Punkin Ale only available in Autumn, full-bodied real pumpkin, brwn sugar, cinnamon, & nutmeg
Jacobo GómezNovember 26, 2014It was OK, not great. I really wanted to like it but ended up disappointed. Tried the wings...not special. Tried the brisket... Unimpressive. Pulled pork was the only highlight.
- Fried pickles! Smoked chicken thighs! Brisket!! Milk stout! Shiner bock!
Burger BeastSeptember 13, 2011Ever had a Burger with only cheese and it was amazing? Guess what? This is one of those places.
Isaac WechslerMay 24, 2012Warning that their check-in special only applies to dinner menu. Good fries though.
