Ever since the Magic City saw the Orange Bowl crumble in 2008, Miami sports fans were left with a void that most thought would never be filled – Until now. Enter Black Market, a Miami sports bar that calls upon the nostalgia of eighties Miami, a time where the Hurricanes reigned supreme in the college football landscape, when Dan Marino would become the face of Miami sports, and the rest of the country looked at our oasis as a ‘Paradise Lost.’ Cash was king in a lawless city during a time where OUR Miami began to take shape. Black Market Miami is a place that invites you to take pride in our city’s past, both the good and the bad, because it is this rich history that made us who we are today.

    Overall we had a great brunch that lasted about 4 hours. The cocktails were amazing (the guava with mezcal at the top suggested by our waiter George). The food we ordered was delicious cooked to perfection and we enjoyed everything that George our waiter recommended. We will definitely go back and told our friends and family about it. The service was impeccable just like the food! George was awesome 💗

    Everything was great. I do wish our server or hostess or even the website notified of an upcharge if you chose a level of spice for the butter chicken. I also wish they mentioned the 20% already included in the bill.

    We had the most phenomenal dining experience. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed by the friendly hostess and staff! We were promptly seated at a lovely table that gave us the perfect mix of outside entertainment and under roof vibes! Our server was exceptional! He was very attentive, engaging and friendly. Our food arrived looking just as tantalizing and delicious as the online photos! I can see why this restaurant won Diners Choice of 2024! It’s the perfect blend of Peruvian, Mexican and Mediterranean contemporary inspired delights. For starters we had El Alma guacamole and Tiradito de Mariscos en aquachile de Mango. Yum! Our cocktails of choice were the Vuela, Vuela and Almarita! More Yum! For our entrees we dined on the Salmon salad and Risotto de Camarones. The entire night was perfection. We will be back and bring our friends!
