Understory

Loved this venue! It's like a jungle and your hippie friend's key west backyard in one. First time coming here and wish I'd come earlier to eat! We ordered drinks only during the show and everyone was super nice. We had a great time dancing with the Low Down Brass band from Chi-town last night. Can't wait to be back for more live music!

Understory is such a cool and chill spot. A really bit venue with a lot to offer. Lots of lush greenery around and cool decor. It feels like a big maze, where you keep discovering something new. Their nights vary with different events from djs to jazz and they have a variety of food on given nights. When I went they had pizza and tacos. A main bar with cocktails, a wine bar, and beer bar. I opted for the vodka passion fruit cocktail. It was pretty tasty, just had too much ice. It comes in a cute re-usable plastic cup. Staff was nice and helpful throughout the venue. There is seating scattered throughout Understory for food or just to relax. Definitely want to come back again soon!

If you are looking for a place where some of the best in Miami hospitality come together to create the coolest jungle vibes, look no further than Understory.Picture this - you walk into a tropical oasis and have the option of cocktails from Jaguar sun, wine selections from Bad Seed - a new wine bar pop up from Karina and the folks at Niu Wine -, rotating food from some of Miami's most loved chefs and last but not least - MUSIC!You'd think these folks just took your best friends magical back yard and created the most fun party in their house, but instead its at Understory and you can enjoy this oasis weekly on Thursday's and Fridays.I went for the first time last Thursday where I got to try a rum punch but with Mezcal that was delish. Then I moved on to a selection of delish wines and pizza by Flour and Weirdoughs.To say the vibe is impeccable is an understatement. I happily stayed until they closed at midnight, passing the time hanging out with friends and listening to the most fire playlist.They also have live jazz that starts at 9, which you can't really hear from the wine bar area since the space is so large, and DJs later in the evening as well as Friday. You can enjoy free entry before 8:30 pm.The best way to stay up to date on their weekly pop ups is to follow them on IG at @Understorymia.Can't wait to return!

Visited for Jazz in the Jungle and could not recommend more! The venue is quite expansive with lots of seating surrounded by string lights and lush greenery. Cocktails and wine available for purchase on site, as well as food options such as pizza and tacos. Overall loved the vibe, and this would be a perfect spot for a date or relaxing night with a group!

This place takes you somewhere else like a jungle but super beautiful. I've never seen a place like it. This place is perfect for a date night. I went here for a concert. But I was super mesmerized by this venue I walked around. I had food from this Mexican stand they had which were very friendly people. I enjoyed this place and the decorations so much. It's small but you are in a different world when you get here. I definitely fell in love with understory. It's a vibe and a must see venue.

I went for Jazz in the Jungle last night on 4/20/23.. The musicians were good, but honestly had there been adequate seating, maybe it would've felt enjoyable- or comfortable, at the least? $20 entry per person, only to enter and everything cost ~$18+ for a good drink in a mostly cute cup. I'm going to pretend that my $15 drink didn't become $19 just because they asked if I wanted whipped cream on my drink and I said yes lolAt the end of the day, we're in Miami, I can't complain about prices. However, Lagniappe-house is equally expensive, and there's at least accommodated seating-- spots open up more frequently at Lagniappe because of the greater amount of seating being offered to begin with.Ultimately, the garden is pretty and vibes aren't horrible even despite the seating issue. Just come with the mindset of very-possibly standing the entire night and you'll be fine.

Very cool space with a lot of little nooks to hang out and have conversation. They have some small bites and drinks to pair with the entertainment. The vibe is super laid back. The music changes with a wide variety from the djs to the live acts

Love this spot. Great vibes and drinks. Perfect for dates and live music especially the jazz nights. they also do painting events and other activities
