Happy Wine

The Calle Ocho in West Miami is where you'll find this mom-and-pop wine store. For a date night, happy hour, or lunch, Happy Wine is attractive and ideal. Wine lovers can stop by to sip wine while indulging in a selection of little tapas-style dishes like camarones al ajillo, shrimp in garlic sauce, or the irresistible little chorizo al vino pork nuggets (Spanish sausage braised in red wine). Take a few bottles with you if you need to leave quickly. Even the most discriminating buyer will find something with more than 1,000 different foreign wines available.

If you want to remain and sample, the family-run West Miami store serves reasonably priced wines and has a menu of delectable tapas. Like chorizo and rioja at Happy Wine, wine and happiness go together. The store is renowned for its wild discounts and weekly wine tastings, such as six wines and a snack for $10, in addition to its reds and difficult-to-find Spanish labels. This is definitely one of the best wine bars in Miami.
