Automatic Slim's

If Pamela Anderson and Kid Rock were to opened a bar, it would look, feel and sound like Automatic Slims. With buxom bartenders in skin-tight shirts, stripper poles and giant neon bowling and trailer park signs, this one-room true locals' dive bar is less about class and more about letting it all hang out. Forget your Prada shoes and Cartier watch, toss on a pair of dirty jeans and Chuck Taylors and join the model set that flocks to one of the only venues in South Beach to feature live rock. Slims anti-South Beach attitude (no cover, no VIP, no bullshit) shockingly appeals to Hollywood heavy hitters like Paris Hilton, who enjoyed the Thursday Bike Night party with free drinks for the ladies and '80s music all night long.

Review:  I was only in SoBe for one night on a quick trip from Tampa to pick up a car, and we stumbled into this hot little gem for a few cold libations.  Our bartender was young, Latin, funky and gorgeous, and treated us like regulars.  The beer on tap was colder than the bottles, and we had our fill while a cool little band played rock-a-billy for the smallish crowd.  If you\'re anti-club like me, you'll love this hip little bar.  It has a Pulp Fiction-esque cool vibe that I really dug.  I'll definitely go back when I return to Miami for my next photo shoot.

Review:  If you want that SoBe experience mixed with a great retro 80's/punk/hip-hop... then you definitely have to go there. Awesome kick back and chill place. If you get there before midnight, you might secure a nice table as your home base to mingle. Did I mention no cover?

Review:  If you are looking for a place where you do not need to be super dressy this is it.  The Karaoke was fabulous and the people were great.

Review:  After going to the Mansion this was a relief.  The price of liquor was reasonable and the staff had a good attitude.  If you are looking to kick back and have a good time without having to spend $1,000 then this is the place. With a two story club playing rap in one room, rock/dance in another, and 80's in another room, you can not beat the atmosphere...  I loved it and did not venture to any other club after going here...  I recommend it completely.

Review:  No cover? Ha, because we didn't have girls with us the chick at the door tried to charge us $15 to get in. According to her, "she didn't need anymore guys in there." While waiting  we saw many people "tip" the door guy $20. From what I saw there was tons of BS at that club. I wouldn't go back. Unless you're a hot chick they don't want you there. Definitely not worth the price, not worth the crap from the rude door people.
