Greater Miami & Miami Beach is all about Latin flair, and where better to find it than our Latin nightclubs. With a melting pot of cultures from across the Caribbean and Central and South America, Miami’s diverse population brings with it an electric nightlife scene.

From speakeasies to cocktail lounges and buzzy restaurants that transform into late-night dance parties, here are some of our favorite Latin clubs in Miami.

Club Tipico Dominicano

For a taste of the Dominican Republic’s nightlife spirit, head to Allapattah’s longstanding Club Tipico Dominicano. Established in 1985, it’s a restaurant for Dominican specialties, such as oxtail, queso frito and mofongo. Stop by for happy hour specials from Monday through Thursday and Sunday. Friday through Sunday, Club Tipico Dominicano transforms into a high-energy dance club, with DJs playing the latest bachata, merengue, salsa and reggaeton. Live musicians perform on select nights.

Bodega's colorful taqueria — Enter the blue bathroom door to get into Bodega's secret speakeasy

Bodega Taqueria y Tequila

At Bodega Taqueria y Tequila in South Beach, tacos come with a twist. The food truck-like façade is a front for a secret speakeasy nightclub. Specializing in tequila cocktails, this club has an approachable-yet-high-energy vibe with late-night dancing to live DJs. You’ll enjoy an open format mix of Latin, house and hip-hop music on a night out at Bodega. And remember, when hunger strikes, you can order tacos, quesadillas and more in the speakeasy or at the taco stand.

Havana 1957

With four locations in South Beach, Havana 1957 spreads the Cuban spirit far and wide. The lively restaurant and bar serves up authentic Cuban fare in an atmosphere inspired by Havana’s heyday in the 1950s. Swing by any location on Monday through Friday for happy hour specials on mojitos, Cuba libres and more. To feel like you’ve stepped back in time, Havana 1957 Ocean Drive hosts Cuban Music Nights, with a trio performing Cuban music from the 1950s Thursday-Saturday nights. Havana 1957 Breakwater kicks it up a notch every Friday and Saturday with the Cuban Live Show. The show includes free salsa lessons.

Lively performers at Mango’s Tropical Cafe — Don't miss the fun at Mango’s Tropical Cafe

Mango’s Tropical Cafe South Beach

On legendary Ocean Drive, Mango’s Tropical Cafe South Beach is one of those Miami institutions everyone has to experience at least once. On Monday nights, dance to live music. If you step inside Tuesday through Sunday for the dinner show, chances are a woman bedecked in ruffles and a full headdress will be tangoing on the bar with a man in skintight sequin pants. Order a piña colada and enjoy the show, or hop onto the dance floor to try out your own moves. If you need a dance refresher, Salsa Mia Sip, Savor & Salsa! hosts a daily event so you can learn to dance salsa and bachata.

Dimly lit dining room at El Santo — Visit the hidden speakeasy inside El Santo

Don Diablo Speakeasy at El Santo

Hidden under the cover of a hacienda-style Mexican restaurant and casual taqueria, Don Diablo is a speakeasy on Calle Ocho in Little Havana. The brainchild of Roman Jones, the Latin hot spot’s interiors were inspired by the classic Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez vampire flick "From Dusk Till Dawn," complete with red fangs protruding from the wall, Virgin Mary iconography, an enormous coffin and dancing skeletons. The team behind Bar Lab created the tequila-focused cocktail menu that's perfect for a high-energy night out dancing to live Latin music and DJ beats. Past performers include reggaeton artist Chris Palace and Cuban singer Lenier.

Cubaocho

The Cubaocho Museum & Performing Arts Center is a true Little Havana treasure. By day, explore the collection of Cuban artwork and furniture from the 19th to mid-20th century. Ask the owner to show you the historical furniture that Frank Sinatra formerly owned. It’s a place for locals to congregate over cigars in the outdoor courtyard and sip rum at the wooden bar – arguably the most extensive rum bar in Miami. Weekend evenings come alive with live music, ranging from jazz to salsa and everything in between. If you don’t know how to salsa dance, no worries. Learn how to do it for free at the weekly Salsa Sundays.
