Beer and burgers meet grass fed beef jerky and grouper cheeks in a way that satisfies palates of all levels of sophistication or, frankly, the lack thereof. [Eater 38 Member]

Despite having over 24 beers on tap, we are more concerned about the food! This isn't your typical bar food! Try the fish & chips or the glazed doughnut bread pudding! Yum! Read more

Local hotspot. This bar has great food, knowledgeable bartenders, and lots of beer. Owners have plenty of beer suggestions if your looking for a new taste to get hooked on.

Many others have said it but the burger was outstanding. The beer was excellent. The service was good and friendly. A real find.

I forget about this place all the time. But it really is very good. I recommend the fries and the chicken/dumpling.

Had the wedge salad and some hushpuppies both were amazing. Also you can never go wrong with craft beer

The Local’s young and talented Alberto Cabrera is one of Miami’s more innovative chefs, having worked at some of the city’s top eateries including STK, La Broche, Norman’s, Chispa and Karu & Y.

The Truffle Fries! And the shrimp and grits with kimchi sauerkraut is incredible. Actually, everything we tried was wonderful.

Tequila novice or enthusiast?? Go for Riazul Tequila Anejo. An explosion of flavors that linger on the palate. Take it from me @TQLAficionada

Try the Truffle Parmesan Fries - If you put ketchup on these fries, you should be shot. Two words...Fuckin Awesome!

The malanga tatertots with the oxtail sauce & the parmesan shavings are out of this world. Amazing doesn't even begin to describe it.
Mari GarciaJune 18, 2011
On the cheese menu the Local has Rogue Orgenzola, a blue from Oregon, which is outrageous and rarely found in Miami!!! ORDER IT!
Rachel LivengoodDecember 6, 2012
Grouper cheeks are freaking amazing. And the beer selection is awesome. Wish I had found this place day 1 of my trip.

Try the Truffle Parmesan Fries - Amazing fries. Worth a second trip.
Rosaura OchoaMarch 6, 2013
I found the other reviews a little misleading: awful service, the fries were a little too toasted, the burger was good looking but tasteless, the brie mozarella sticks were good but too greasy.
DeepMarch 4, 2012
Try the Jerky in a Jar - If Heaven tasted like Jerky...this would be it.
