One of Food & Wine Magazine's 2012 Fifty Best Bars in America, Living Room at the W South Beach features one of the most innovative cocktail programs in Miami. The funky lounge, located in the W SoBe Hotel & Residences, is operated by neighboring The Dutch proprietors, Nicola Siervo and Karim Masri of KNR Restaurant Group and Bar Concepts. Seasonal specialty drinks, which include edible flowers, herbs and other organics from Homestead farm Verde Gardens, include the Crimson Cooler, a vodka cocktail infused with essential oils of ginger, shiso and galangal; and the Waverly Place Echo – mandarin vodka, fresh lemon, pomegranate seeds and Beattie's special Five-Spice Honey Syrup. When those open your appetite, much on an "adult" grilled cheese with American cheese, bacon, avocado and tomato, or the "Our Cuban," made with slow-cooked mojo pork, ham, swiss cheese, mustard and pickles.
EXPERT TIPS BY:

Miami Local Expert
- Bars: "Dress to impress at this swanky and stylish bar."
- Hotel Bars: "Be adventurous in your drink order. This is not the place to stick to your old domestic beer stand-bys."
- Best for Bars Because: Living Room making you feel like you're literally having drinks in some millionaire's home. Casual and luxurious at once. Plus the cocktails are excellent.
- Best for Hotel Bars Because: While the ambiance is choice and the patrons drop-dead gorgeous, the real stars here are the cocktails--isn't that what a good bar is all about?
