Monty’s at the Marina is the exception, offering breezy waterfront views and an exceedingly popular happy hour weeknights from 4-8pm. Belly up to the bar for half off liquor (including potent frozen drinks) and 30% off wine and drafts. Pair your refreshments with a selection from the raw bar or sample a variety of house-made ceviches and you’ll end the day with a smile. This is clearly not a gourmet restaurant, but it’s ideal for bar bites and beer.

Monty’s offers live music Wednesdays through Sundays and plenty of room to move indoors or alfresco. The bar features a full size swimming pool on site and plenty of tables directly overlook the busy working marina next door. Service can be spotty at times but this is a place designed to evoke a Jimmy Buffet Margaritaville atmosphere. Take note of the time the sun will set and schedule your visit to afford you a front row seat.

Ideal for a breezy lunch, the just-seared sirloin burger makes a perfect repast while massive cruise ships steam right by your table and thousands of eager tourists wave bon voyage on their way to a Caribbean adventure.

South Pointe Park was renovated to include a waterfront promenade that passes right behind the restaurant so the people watching includes plenty of folks enjoying a stroll with their dogs and kids. Stop in for drinks at sunset to experience the perfect end to a South Beach day. In March and September the restaurant hosts Wine Week where guests can sample 10 different wines for just $10 when paired with lunch. Few local restaurants offer this kind of breezy outdoor experience so come toast your good fortune at the southernmost edge of the Magic City.
