South Beach restaurants on Christmas Day were $150-$250/plate which was more than we wanted to spend. Grateful to find this hidden gem. Restaurant is inside a hotel in mid beach so we weren’t sure what to expect. Server was engaging. Everyone’s dish was amazing, from the pumpkin ravioli that was not overpowering but tasty, all the steaks, the Alfredo paired with bacon, and even a specialty dish made with a spicy tomato sauce (which was exactly what was desired). The chicken parm was the most uniquely prepared and a favorite. We were the only ones there for a long time —maybe people don’t eat out on Christmas Day but we were eternally grateful!

Let's just go ahead and title this as my favorite spot in Miami to go get a bite to eat. This time, I decided to come visit on my birthday with my wife! Hands down, I have to let you know how the bartender set us up just right with the perfect pre-birthday turn up Lemon Drops to start off the evening. The experience was nothing less of EXCEPTIONAL! The service, the attention to detail, the attentiveness to the customers, all 5 Star Ratings! Keep up the great work, Blue Collar! This is definitely one of the very few establishments that I frequently visit and always leave with positive results! 💯
