Waxy's is a little tricky to find. Here are some directions to help you out:

From Metrorail: Get off at the Brickell station and walk about five blocks north along S.W. 1st Court (west side of the tracks) to the river. Waxy's will be on the left side.

From the North via I-95: Go south on I-95 to the Miami Avenue/Biscayne Blvd. spur (Exit 2C on the left side). Take the ramp that leads to Miami Avenue. Turn right and head south along Miami Avenue over the Miami River. Make a right onto S.W. 7th Street (US 41 west) and then another right onto S.W. 1st Court, just past the overhead Metrorail tracks.

From Downtown Miami via US 1: Take Biscayne Blvd. south and head over the Miami River bridge to where US 1 becomes Brickell Avenue. Make a right onto S.W. 7th Street (US 41 west) and then make a right onto S.W. 1st Court, just past the overhead Metrorail tracks.

From the South via US 1: Take South Dixie Highway to S. Miami Avenue. Make a left and proceed north to S.W. 7th Street (US 41 west). Turn left and then make a right onto S.W. 1st Court, just past the overhead Metrorail tracks.

From the West via SR 836: Take the Dolphin Expressway eastbound to I-95. Exit southbound on I-95 and get over to the left lane. Follow the "From the North via I-95" directions at that point.
