  I was looking forward to trying this place out so my BF and I came here for a snack of sorts.  I have to tell the service has got to be some orf the worst that I have experienced.  Seems to me that if you are not a regular here...forget it.  To order my food I had to walk up to the bar after waiting quite a bit for someone to take our order.  Mind you the place was not busy at all.  We ordered 10 wings mild, grilled and and order of fries.  I found the wings to be a bit on the salty side and the fries...well the fries reminded me of Five Guys fries....very greasy.

  The layout is better than at the original Hole, the amount of TVs make it perfect for watching the game... The burger was cooked perfectly, the wings tasted great, and the death dog was as spicy and good as at the original. They just opened so you gotta let them get it right. The prices are reasonable:
  
  Large burger, 10 wings, & death dog for $24 is not bad in this part of town
  
  The death dog is a spicy hot dog with jalapeños and other spicy ingredients. Good if u can take the spice.
  
  They have about 10 beers on tap and the selection seemed good. The place was packed on college game niGht.

  This is the second location for Hole in the Wall, the original being at South Dixie Hwy and SW 144th Street.  This location used to house Irish Tavern South, which closed some months ago.  It's larger than the original location.
  
  It's a beer and wine sports bar, with, by my count, 16 television screens on the walls.  There are about 12 stools around a U-shaped bar, several high-tops around the periphery, and communal picnic-bench-type seating on the floor.
  
  I stopped in to grab lunch, a brew, and some of the 'Canes game on the second day it was open.  There was basicly no parking left in the lot, so I parked across the street at the South Dade Shopping Center, which has plenty.
  
  The bar was pretty crowded, but there were plenty of waitresses, and one waited on me moments after I was seated.  I had a dark Sam Adams (don't ask me which one) on tap, served in a traditional pint glass.  
  
  Hole in the Wall was allegedly founded by a guy from Keg South, which was known for its burgers.  So of course I ordered a burger!  Two sized are offered - regular and large.  I ordered the regular, which looks to be about six ounces (see uploaded photo).  "All the way" included lettuce, tomato, onions, pickles and cheese, with chips, according to the menu.  Fries can be sustituted for the chips for $1.50, which I did.  I ordered one "all the way" done medium.
  
  My basket of burger and fries looked great.  Hot and juicy burger, and seemingly fresh-cut fries (although frozen-fry companies can be tricky).  I took a big bite, and hmmmm, checked the burger - it was well done (over done for me!).  Well, it was still pretty good, and I didn't want to wait for a replacement.  I took a fry, and ... uh-oh, this fry needs Viagra. Limp as can be.  Not fried properly.  Oh well, they were tasty.  Then I was munching on the burger, trying to be analytical, and I realized the cheese was missing! [sigh]  
  
  I also ordered 30 wings to go, half "hot" and half "blackened."  They were packed and bagged nicely, and I tried some when I got home.  The "hot" was good, although kind of mild by my standards.  The "blackened" had some cajun-style blackening seasoning on them.  They were pretty salty for my taste, so beware.  Your milage may vary.  By the way, the wings are grilled, not fried.  The markings and flavor of the burger indicated that it was char-grilled, too.
  
  OK, cheese forgotten, burger overdone, fries maybe rushed.  I enjoyed my visit, and the place was not yet opened for 24 hours, so I reserve any harsh judgement.  Hopefully it will smooth out, although parking will probably continue to be problematic during weekend hometown football broadcasts.
