Description

One day, 23rd Street might resemble Ocean Drive, but for now, it's a dark street on a dark block on a dark side of town. This bar and lounge, the Wynwood Café District's first, is an oasis. The venue includes a spacious outdoor area with couches under glowstick-lit tree branches, a goth-like candlelit interior, an art gallery, and a kitchen helmed by chef Guily Booth, who makes a killer crab cake, according to Martha Stewart. Hoping to lure in pre-party groups, Cafeina offers an ample drink and tapas menu. Dishes come out in no particular order; they include items such as mini Kobe burgers, Moroccan quesadillas ($10), Chicken and chorizo burgers ($9), and mini Cuban sandwiches with lamb ($12). Service is friendly, but later hours are busy. Entertainment includes DJs. Valet parking is available.
