If you want to step back in time to old-school Miami, check out King Tai Bar. This bar is clean and sleek white with pops of tropical color and pastel. Growing up, we would visit my Grandparents in Southern Florida, and take drives to Miami. This bar looks like it belongs on Ocean Avenue.
King Tai Bar was an exciting addition to the neighborhood. Before it was a bar, it was a run down garage. Before that, it was a Chinese-American fish restaurant called King Tai Fish Kitchen.
King Tai Bar's drinks are absolutely amazing. At this point, we have had everything on the menu, plus the drink specials. When it came to choosing "his and her cocktails" for our wedding, we tried to find the drink that LK so loved when we came here last summer. No dice. LK sent the bar an email, and a very nice bartender got back to us right away with the ingredients in said drink. We recreated it for our wedding!
The food options here are limited, but they do serve empanadas, and we have definitely enjoyed them during our time here.
I am proud of the new restaurants and bars in my area that pay homage to the history of the neighborhood, and are patron friendly. Will definitely have to do a return visit soon.
Matchbook verdict: Goes with the feel of the bar. I am a little surprised that they used hot pink as the font color for the matchbook, as the bar signage is this awesome purple script neon sign. Still, I think the colors complement each other well, and the font is very art deco.
