Hole 19 - Scratch Kitchen + Bar — Restaurant in Miami Springs

06/21/2024 This place is very special, first because of its proximity to my home and because I have seen how the family that has managed it for some years has made it grow when previously, not even flies would enter.

That said, it's time for some reflection.

Food: The portions have been reduced. Where there used to be two mahi fillets in a house salad, now there's one, or fewer chicken wings or fries with the burger. Also, the cooking times for the meat or the flatbread dough often result in cold items straight from the fridge.

Music: Fridays used to see numerous people dancing to 80s music. Now, there are fewer, and sometimes people at the bar or tables are just waiting for a good song.

Cleanliness: I suggest paying more attention to the bar area and checking the salt and pepper dispensers.

Bar: Months ago, the bar was managed differently, and those of us who are regular bar patrons received different attention than we do now. Something that some restaurants do is measure each drink preparation, which builds trust with the customer.

I always recommend this place for the reasons I started with, and I add: the free parking, no cover charge, and its central location in Miami. But the customer also deserves the best service.

07/07/2023 This is one of those amazing spots to have fun with live music every Saturday, American food with some special meals and great environment in the middle of Miami. Pricing very accommodate with service and product received and plenty lots to park for free. Something difficult to find in Miami. This one very recommended

Great place with amazing rock band. Saturday best moment to visit them and have a great time. Price and food...

I walked in to wash my hands prior to sitting down and ordering - the whole place was empty inside and two large groups were seated on the two tables outside boasting loudly- mind you. Once I made it passed the double doors I was shouted at by an older gentlemen previously seated with the groups rudely questioning why we just barged in without informing anyone- stating if we needed anything we should had let someone know- as if my friend and I would be able to identify that the rowdy people outside in plain clothes were employees of the facility. That’s just to start. And fallowed to say “Don’t make a mess”! When we finally made it to the restroom, two older gentleman from the group barged in yelling “maintenance” whilst laughing only to hover over the bathroom door later waiting for us to leave. We felt extremely uncomfortable, intimidated, and violated at their “welcome”. We decided to leave immediately without ordering. Worst experience I’ve had as a Springs resident. If I could leave zero...

I visited Hole 19 last weekend for the first time, they had an excellent band playing, the atmosphere was good, plenty of parking, nice set up, service was outstanding, however I found their menu to be very limited in both appetizers and entrees as well as pricey compared to similar venues although food was good and they serve good portions. Drinks were decent but pricey as well. I ordered an old-fashioned bourbon but could only have one because they had run out of bitters. Had their menu been more diverse and a little less pricey, I would definitely give it 5🌟. I gave it 4 stars because I couldn't give it 3.5. This place definitely has the potential to be awesome. Would I visit again? Yes, but it would not be my first choice. I want to reiterate that the service was...
