Wet Willie’s

Probably one of the best spots in South Beach for tourists to drink their cares away. A decent place for us locals too.
Sitting right on Ocean Drive, it’s practically on the beach. It’s a big two story building with a large outdoor patio facing the ocean.
There is food here too. Who knew? I didn’t until yesterday. It looked like typical bar food but not as good. Just a visual interpretation, I never tried it. Probably won’t but you can and let me know how it is.
The reason you’re here is to drink. Frozen drinks. Get wasted on these cool icee like creations. They have probably a dozen or so flavored that can be mixed and changed into other flavors. They’ll let you sample them too.
One thing I’ll say– tip your bartender. They’ll yell at you if you don’t. Seriously. I watched a woman yell at a guy for not tipping. Yes, not tipping is a D**k move, but I see his point maybe? Playing devils advocate– they aren’t Doing much other than pulling a nozzle to dispense some flavored ice. Maybe they make the mixture? Who knows. Just tip them. It’s what you should do anyway.
Also to note. The men’s bathroom doesn’t lock– don’t number 2 there please. Please.
It’s one of those places where you really don’t care what happens because you may not remember the afternoon anyway. If you’re not expecting much then you won’t be let down, right?

Best daiquiris on Ocean Dr. Patio scene is very nice and the staff there is great. Atmosphere is festive and the line was not too terribly bad. The drinks are exquisite.

The drinks were great if you like frozen drinks, I had a strawberry/​mango mixed and my boyfriend had call a cab/​piña colada mixed. Good area to just watch the local traffic. The music was not for people who like top 40… it was also pretty crowded. My experience was ok. Not the best place I been on Ocean Drive.

So on vacation, this is always one place you need to go and drink. I had the Superwoman with Willie Daze. I think this is my new favorite. I always get the same food. Somewhat a creature of habit. The love me tenders are my favorite. I like them Buffalo style or just with honey mustard. I love, love, love their fries.
My husband had the Bob Marley. It tastes awesome. The first night we were there, it was forecasted to rain. So when this happens, they wait staff will not take orders. It rained like five mins, so we just ordered our food. Thanks Tyler for your service.
The only reason I gave three stars, was because it seemed like it took forever for the waiters or waitress to greet us. But overall everything was good.

It was pouring down raining on my 30^th birthday. It totally caught me off guard. I planned my birthday in Miami and didn’t think to check the weather because it was Miami in JUNE! Anyways, a sunny day on the beach was out of the question, but we were still on the beach so we had to make the best of it. When let down by the weather… DRINK!
We got there and despite the rain, it was a long line. We went up to order our drinks and also wanted to order food, but there were tables available. We waited around for a while, but no luck. Due to the weather, we couldn’t sit on the patio so we decided to check for seating downstairs… HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! There was a table for 2 waiting happily for my best friend and I. We grabbed it quickly and ordered our food.
I had the fish tacos… AMAZING! The fish was fried, but not heavy. It was so light, moist and flavorful and most importantly fresh! The sauce and fixings complimented the tacos perfectly and made for a great birthday lunch.
The drinks were cheap, strong and delicious. I had the four play and it was sweet and did its job. If I weren’t with my best friend, I probably would’ve order another, but she was on booze patrol. The lady who made our drinks (older lady) was very nice and helpful! I would definitely return here on my next visit to Miami. The only con was the guy at the door. He was rude and even disrespectful at times, but once you get past him, it goes up from there.
Be prepared for a bit of a wait and large crowds inside

This place is a total dive/​dump. It is a beach bar. Unstable tables. Noisy people. Nothing special. They are known for their daiquiri’s. I went with friends, we enjoyed our time out, but it is definitely a dive bar. PS the seating is MAJORLY WACK. No one seats you. You sit yourself. So good luck. WACK.

Amazing drinks!
The Call A Cab will make you do just that .
I was craving them as I was headed to the airport. I was so tempted to drive back to South Beach to get another slushy. I just hate that you can’t take them out onto the strip with you. That sucked! But I love the drinks. The bartenders sucked. Dry, poor customer service, and unfriendly.

Thirty, Hot, and In Need of some Frozen Drink!
Having been to this location before, I knew it stands much higher than the one we currently have in FTL Beach Place. The Alcohol Infused Frozen Daiquiri Bar was full of each and every flavor they provide! Awesome! That is the biggest downfall at Beach Place as they always only have 2 – 4 Machines going but not here!
Before entrance your ID is checked and you are told absolutely NO DRINKS LEAVE THE PREMISES! :/​
With an Open Air Environment Downstairs they have a smaller Bar and Ocean Dr seating along with some pretty foul bathrooms. Upstairs you will find Rooftop Seating with Indoor Seating and a long bar for Ordering. As expected with a place like this, the floors are super sticky, the menus need latex gloves to handle, and the Crowd! Yes, yes, just leave it at that… The Crowd!
The staff was friendly and patient but keeps a very close eye on everyone as we are in Miami Beach and things always seem to get turned up no matter the time!
Pricing is $ 11 for a Medium 16oz or $ 13 for a Large 20oz.
A New Seasonal Flavor? I have never heard of such a thing!
WILLIE DAZED is a Groovy Blend of Tart Lemonade, Strawberries, and Vodka! We tried it and liked it! For maximum flavor I always like to do a mix so I also got Shock Treatment swirled in!
This was the easiest drinking Wet Willie Daiquiri I have ever had… Not a good thing when Wet Willies is known for their Strong, Intense, Super Buzzed Drinks. Sad to say there was no buzz at the end but instead we were left with a Syrupy Sugar Smut.
Please Put The Fun Back In Your Drinks!!!

The drinks here are always point but the food could be better. The customer service was available. When people come here expect to have a great drinking experience if your looking for food go somewhere else on Ocean Dr.

Love these damn frozen drinks!!! Call a cab… superman…pins coladas… White Russian… jack…every damn thing is good!

Stopped by Wet Willie’s on Sunday afternoon while showing some visitors Ocean Drive. Just had one drink a Triple Play before we headed off.
Quality
So the frozen drink that I ordered was a Triple Play, which is a combination of Call A Cab, Attitude Adjustment, and Sex On The Beach mixes. How I would describe the taste is like strong alcohol with a cough syrup aftertaste. It looks cool with the mix of colors, but do not be fooled into thinking it does not make a punch. The best thing I can say as it did not leave me with the sugar rush I would have expected.
Quantity
I ordered the smaller size drink, which was more than enough. I feel like the larger size or more than one would leave you with a brain freeze or a sugar rush.
Value
It is a frozen drink on the most tourist packed street in Miami, of course it is overpriced. However, since you can taste the alcohol there are definitely much worse deals.
Ambiance
Wet Willie’s is located right in the center of Ocean Drive several feet from South Beach. As you possibly could expect it is an absolute disaster. The bar is two floors with an outdoor patio and bar downstairs and an inside bar and seating upstairs allow with a deck overlooking the area. The view is mediocre as you can see the water, but it is mostly blocked. The floors are sticky and slippery with wet floor signs everywhere, because it is clear the patrons are spilling their drinks constantly. There are several televisions, but instead of sports they play a strange assortment of things such as Cartoon Network. The music is blaring with alternating rap music and house songs.
Crowd
All I can say is out of control tourists. It was the middle of the day on Sunday and people were already plenty drunk. People were screaming and dancing in the middle of the floor, it appeared like several fights were about to break out, and the police were clearly circling. So depending on your mood it could be the worst or possibly very entertaining.
Service
Actually not as bad as I would have expected. I assume at primetime it would be a disaster, but our girl was about as fast and nice as you could hope for when we were there.
Parking
Well if you don’t know stay away from Ocean Drive, even if you could get a spot its not worth the time trying to get in and out. It is definitely worth walking a block or two over from a metered spot or garage.
Extra
Wet Willie’s is a tourist trap with strong frozen drinks. It has plenty of entertainment value, but expect it to get out of control fast. Everyone needs to show id to get in and they are strict about confining drinks and keeping pets out. There is really no reason to go here, but if you are on vacation you probably will end up here.

Stopped by on a Sunday night… bartender was sweet and answered our questions about the drinks… she poured our mixes as we asked. Tasty… tasty…tastyyyyyy…
We were able to sit on a high top outside overlooking ocean drive … People watching… and the weather was amazing.
Will def be back !!

Wet Willie’s is Wet Willie’s it should not be your one stop of the night. Drinks cold and good. I have not tried the food.
I like to mix call a cab with the attitude adjustment.
This place is right on Ocean Drive so expect a crowd.
The last time I was there I got a drink and an episode from COPS. Someone was being arrested right in front of this place. I guess a drink and a show!

If I had to judge this place SOLEY on the drinks, I’d say 5. But I have to consider the food and service… and that’s why this place is a 4.
The last time I was in Miami, I was at Wet Willies almost every day. It took forever, but after 6 days, I finally managed to drag my friends over to grab some drinks. They underestimated how strong these drinks were. One drink and you’re already feeling it. We ended up getting larges for $ 13.00. You can get a refillable cup, but honestly, I don’t think it’s worth it. You can mix and match the drinks however you like. They’re so strong and still delicious! NOMNOMNOM!
The food is here is whatever. It’s mediocre bar food. We ended up getting some nachos. Service is really not the greatest either. You have to flag someone down or they will never get to you.
You have to be 21 to get in and remember, you can’t take these drinks out to go.
For a good time with some slushies in hand, this is a must!

When I thought the 190 Octane at Fat Tuesday’s was strong. The «call a cab» slushy was very potent and very lethal. The price isn’t too bad with a large being $ 13 but I got pretty drunk after one drink which is rare in my case.
One thing I noticed is that the upstairs floor was extremely sticky. I suppose no one really slips upstairs then.

I was ID’d more than once, and it was quite odd. It didn’t help that I had an out-​of-​state license, so the security guards were having too much fun being bewildered at my age.
The drinks were great, and the service was fantastic! I guess I screamed tourist, but the bartender gave me samples and made me something with one of the flavors I asked for (sex on the beach). I easily got drunk, and hanging outside and people watching was fun while on the second floor.
Great place for drinks, people watching, and hanging out.

I wanted to visit wet willies after reading reviews on Unilocal.It was a bit too far from our hotel so we took an effort to take an über there just for a few frozen drinks.
They check ID at the front. We were waiting for our turn on the first floor. There were many people waiting but just one person working at the bar. She looked really busy. She wasn’t so nice but I kind of understand since she’s the only one working at the bar. We had samples of each flavor and decided to mix sex on the beach and shock treatment. It’s not as sweet as it looks. It has alcohol taste but we didn’t get drunk or even tipsy from it. It melts quicker than you think so drink up!

When you go to Wet Willie’s, you gotta try all the frozen drinks. And definitely end with «Call A Cab». Start off with something ordinary like «Strawberry» and «Mango» (feel free to mix flavors, you can also sample them first), then move on to some «Shock Treatment» before having some «Sex On The Beach», and if its good, a «Naked Willie».
If you’ve had too much «Bahamam Mama» and turn into a «Monster Melon», you might need some «Attitude Improvement».
There are 2 sizes for all the frozen daiquiris, but obviously get the large size. They have food as well, it looked ok.
Luckily, my hotel was a block from Wet Willie’s, so I didn’t need to «Call A Cab». Perhaps they should create a new drink called «Stumble Home».

Omg! Had so much fun here! Our waitress was super sweet and knew a lot about the menu and the drinks. Even though she was very busy she checked on us all the time and made us feel right at home. I ordered that nachos. Wow they were amazing. I think some of the best I have ever had. The chicken was so tasty and fresh.
My girlfriends enjoyed their food as well. We got Jell-​O shots. Pre warning: the green ones are very very strong. I couldn’t even finish mine haha.
Overall I will come back here because of the friendly service, good food and fun atmosphere.

Wet Willie’s provides an excellent and fun atmosphere. Everyone’s in a happy mood. Be ready to get wasted because those drinks creep up on you fast.
Empanadas were decent.
Hard to get a table here so be prepared to stand on lookout until one opens up.

Drinks congelados são a razão para você, que não gosta muito de beber, vir ao Wet Willie’s.
Cuidado com este detalhe importante: os sabores são tão gostosos que você nem vai perceber se ficar um pouquinho bêbado!
Mas o risco vale a pena e quando eu me arrisquei foi só alegria.
Cheguei lá com um grupo de pessoas, o lugar estava tranquilo então encontramos uma mesa facilmente (mas era quarta-​feira, não é a noite mais agitada de Miami).
As pessoas que estavam comigo pediram um «Call a Cab» (feito com rum e grain alcohol, o drink mais forte da casa) — e eu fiquei muito tentada a pedir este também porque o sabor era DELICIOSO. Porém eu não estava disposta a literalmente precisar chamar um taxi então optei pelo Bob Marley (morango manga and maça verde) mesmo.
Os drinks são grandes e na minha opinião baratos. È um bom lugar para começar se divertir, principalmente em uma noite quente.
Próxima vez, sem medo, eu vou pedir o
