The Gibson Room in Coral Gables is an excellent pub/bar and kitchen. If I lived closer I'd go there every night! This place is part of Michael Beltran's Ariete Hospitality Group, which I am a fan of. Excellent vibes dark, dimply lit and classy with chandeliers and dear heads on the wall. A great selection of classic cocktails, and wide selection of spirits. There is live music usually Jazzy, and a DJ every night they are open, the music starts up after 7 or later so if you're looking to start low key go early. If you're looking for vibrant go later, they're open late night as well. As a foodie the menu is changing regularly, but we had and enjoyed the the Pasta, the Roast Chicken Ballotine, bone marrow, the burger one of the best in Miami imo, the sleeper app Buck Rarebit and the flan with foie!

Cool place with great vibes. Got very busy around the bar area during Happy Hour and later on a Jazz Band was setting up to play. Great drink selection and nice assortment of foods to pair your drinks with. Would have liked to have a few more vegan or vegetarian options to choose from is my only issue. Very dog friendly and with its muted lighting and ambiance its definitely a great place for a romantic relaxing date night.

It's so nice to have a live music venue so close to the Grove. When you enter your first impression is intimate and dark. Keep in mind do not go here if you want to catch up with a friend or engage in meaningful conversation. Once the music starts you won't hear a thing! But it's a music venue and the music is outstanding. What will surprise you is the cocktails are fabulous and the food is delicious. Make your life easy and order the charcuterie board for your table. I had the scallops which were the best I have had. What's also nice is you didn't have to take out a loan to eat here. It was very reasonable.

If you are looking for a special place to have a cool evening enjoying some great spirits and delicious food while listening to really nice jazz The Gibson Room is the hidden gem you have been looking for. The service was great and kudos to our server Massiel who not only kept the drinks coming but her food suggestions was on spot. She recommended the Maduros with the blue cheese sauce and the scallops were fantastic. I had the classic fish and chips and I must say you better be hungry. No room for dessert but we will be back for more and so should you. Come relax and enjoy.

This is such a hidden gem. This is a sultry, sexy, restaurant, and a perfect setting for a date. My boyfriend had planned a date here and I had no idea what to expect but the mood was set from the moment we stepped foot. I was surprised to see how much the place had changed, I remember what it was before and this was much more elevated and dark. The service from the beginning was impeccable. The staff was on point and took care of our every need. The food was incredible and you can tell that a lot of thought and detail went into it. Such a surprise for your local neighborhood restaurant.

I love it here it's definitely a hidden gem! I looooove that it was open late; the host gave us a chance to choose where we sat The service was quick And they were playing live music it was definitely a vibe. It's perfect for a first date. I tried cooked oysters for the first time and really devoured them!

How this spot only has 3.9 so far on Yelp is anyone's guess. I came here last night with my friend and we both LOVED it. Sexy, dark, sultry decor awaits you. We were transported out of Miami and felt we were in a New Orleans or New York speakeasy. We were delighted to discover they had live Jazz too. Apparently, they offer live Jazz from Wednesday to Saturday! The service was fantastic, friendly and personable. The food, again Fantastic. To be noted the Chef and restauranteur is Michael Beltran. He has a Michelin Star for his highly acclaimed restaurant Ariete. The food quality here is as good as Ariete and also his Chugs diner. See my other reviews of these other gems. WE tried their Caesar salad - and as my friend put it "a real one", as it came with anchovies, which takes it to that next level! We tried a cheese board with all their dreamy trimmings. We both ordered their scallops for our mains - which were melt in your mouth. We then finished off with their oh so decadent sticky toffee pudding (I am English what can I say). WE are both little Vixens, so had to try their Vixen cocktail. We adored it, two drinks in one and such fun! IF YOU HAVE NOT BEEN.....RUN....

Think of the Gibson Room as your neighborhood watering hole but with a dark, classy, smooth twist - it's a whole vibe in there. I usually hit up this spot for their HH, which is served at the bar and at the 2 high tops on the side if you have a party of 4. The vino glasses and cocktails are $10 a pop and they change. I was a fan of the Dark and Hoppy and The Track Day, myself. Don't get too excited about the online menu, because things change and what you are eying may no longer be served. There are also a good number of snacks on the menu. $1.50 chargrilled oysters are reminiscent of escargots-like delicious herby garlic butter vessels. The smash burger is also perfectly sized and at the $8 price point, hard to beat. But my heart is with the house made ricotta - a generous serving of whipped cheese drizzled with delicious olive oil and flakes of salt - So simple, yet SO good! HH is until 7pm and worth every penny!
