There's nothing like a cold beer and saucy chicken wings at a sports bar in a crowd of craning necks catching the gridiron plays that everyone will be talking about the next day. What if the game's a dud? Wouldn't it be great to get at least a good meal out of the pigskin-watching experience? Here are some of Miami's coolest choices for sports bar fare.

    9809 SW 72ND St, Miami, FL 33173 (map)

    This neighborhood joint's eclectic menu won it a starring role in The Food Network's "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives" show. The national showcase featured the tavern's encrusted dolphin sandwich and scampi chicken wings, but even wilder culinary choices include escargot and fried green tomatoes.

  2. 2 2 Star Rating: Below Average Mike's At Venetia

    555 NE 15TH St Ste 935, Miami, FL 33132 (map)

    The ninth floor of a residential condo tower is a peculiar setting for a sports bar. The same level of bewilderment also comes into play when browsing the menu that stars high-end fare such as chicken Marsala, blackened shrimp fettuccini and sirloin steak.

  3. 3 The Sports Exchange

    45 Miracle Mile, Coral Gables, FL 33134 (map)

    Only an upscale sports bar would dare to transform its digital ticker into a source for stock quotes and breaking news during trading days. It's a different vibe when college and pro football take over the big screens. One of the more intriguing finger food items is an order of tamale cups. These are fried plantain cups, filled with guacamole, pico de gallo and cream.

    5701 Sunset Dr Ste 194, South Miami, FL 33143 (map)

    The legendary Miami Dolphins quarterback serves up fancy eats in a dining room surrounded by plasma televisions. The showstopper dessert is the almond basket, where a nutty brittle cone is dolled up with raspberry sorbet and an assortment of fresh berries.

  5. 5 3 Star Rating: Average Mr Moe's

    3131 Commodore Plz, Coconut Grove, FL 33133 (map)

    Nothing oozes Western sports bar like a roadhouse with a mechanical bull, pool tables and dozens of televisions. The menu, on the other hand, is a globetrotter. International specialties include sizzling steak fajitas, creamy shepherd's pies and even a generously-stacked Reuben sandwich.
