I don't want to slam any venture especially in these uncertain economic times, but I must say I don't like the new vibe of Jake's in South Miami. My wife and I, along with several other couples frequented Jake's several times per month. We also always brought out of town guests for good food in a great local environment. This new re-incarnation of The Gastropub is very bizarre--purple walls and white wood; it changed the local, no pretense feel. We went last week and had an alright meal with ok service. The atmosphere is what we miss. Sometimes you don't mess with something if it isn't broken.
Pros: somewhat of good value for drinks and food
Cons: decor, atmosphere
