“Great experience - discovered the cafe this morning for breakfast as it’s literally a short walk from our hotel stay! The waffles and berry were delicious - waffle was fluffy and warm and garnished with berries. Also had the Turkish bagel and egg plate - very flavorful and great atmosphere!We ordered fresh pressed juices to - go! Great place to relax and dine as our experience was absolutely great!“

“Went for a late dinner. Ordered several plates to share (chicken shawarma, pickled veggies, greek salad, tzatziki) and everything was excellent. Cocktail list had some very good options. Tzatziki with the pita bread was a star of what we ordered. Super fresh and flavorful.“

“Best breakfast sandwiches of my life. It's so hard finding quality food and ingredients in Miami and Novela nailed it with their Egg Sammie and Herb Omelette Ciabatta. Get the ciabatta with bacon and a side of the homemade sirracha mayo is unreal. I'm a saucy girl and they know how to do sauce.Also great place to co work from and such great vibes. AND rose syrup for your coffee :,) I'm obsessed.“

“Delicious food, and so many choices! Particularly enjoyed the fact that the items on the breakfast menu can be ordered all day. Generous portions, lovely seating inside and out and friendly and helpful staff. Wouldn't mind the music to be played at a bit of a lower volume so that conversation can be held more easily in a large group, but that seems to be an endemic characteristic of every eatery that I have thus far visited in the greater Miami area. Overall, terrific experience and would certainly return.“

“The place is super nice, consistently attended by its waiters, with excellent service. To start, we had some delicious empanadas. We had sorrentinos and spaghetti for the main course, and they were delicious! And for dessert, dulce de leche pancake with ice cream. Very lovely atmosphere! Highly recommended!“

“I love the whole vibe of this spot. The drinks, food and music was on point. I actually found this restaurant on tik tok. I recommend going here and I really return on my next vacation from here on out. The wings were very delicious you have to try those, I recommend them. Customer service was excellent, the best I’ve had in a long time.“

“Nice shop, always busy. You order directly at the counter and the food is then brought to your table.Breakfast and the croissants were delicious, but contained far too much filling for my taste. But it's better this way than the other way around.“

“Stopped by to browse menu when we went to pick up açai bowls at Raw South and WOW! Cafe Oriental was awesome. We tried 3 ONIGIRI (Rice Handballs); one tuna, one eel and one fried chicken. Excellent and fun to eat. Also , ordered a Beef Yakisoba; bursting with flavors and beef was tender. Will be back very soon. Highly recommended. Staff member was friendly and took time to explain the menu and everything was packaged neatly. Thank me later.“

“This is the best burger we've ever had! The most amazing bite. The flavorful pretzel bun, the juicy burger, the onion jam. No need for any other condiments. Yum! ? We ordered from the food truck and the food was brought to our table outdoors seating they also have some indoor seating.“

“Wife and I went here for breakfast and both enjoyed the food. A slight issue was our waiter was slow to get back to us when we were finished but we were not in a rush to get anywhere so not a big deal.Overall, pleasant experience and good food.“

“Madda's Place is a delightful gem with beautiful decor and friendly service. I visited on a Saturday and was seated promptly, enjoying board games while waiting. The three egg omelet with ham and bacon was fresh and delicious, accompanied by a tasty salad. And the mocha iced coffee? Absolutely divine. A must-visit spot for a great breakfast.Vegetarian options: SaladsDietary restrictions: Clean food, organic mainly. Salads, fish, meat dishes. Dairy-Free options for coffee.Kid-friendliness: A pretty good place to come with your kids. There are board games available to use.Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of space to navigate a wheelchair. First flood access.“

“Maria was super helpful when it came to serving our table. Viviana was very kind and made sure we were happy with everything! The food was one of a kind, my mom referred my girl and i here and we were so happy! The hot sauce has the perfect kick, no other nica place can compare to that sauce! Thank you “

“First time trying this cafe, I thought it was one of those busy hectic coffee shops where you can barely find a sit, but It’s a pleasant atmosphere, the guy at the counter was very kind, I ordered a latte and a croissant like every Saturday morning and the coffee was very tasty and also good temperature, not extremely hot. The croissant could of been a little bit more crispy. But overall good! I’ll definitely come back again.“

“As an Italian, I really miss a traditional pasticceria. Mamma Leone makes me feel like I’m back in Rome. You can order in Italian (they speak the language) and they serve the coffee on the bar in a glass of you want (the way we Italians do it). Drink your coffee with a cornetto ? and enjoy. The pastry is authentic, cornetto mini nutella and torta della nonna highly recommended. Five stars.“

“So good! I'm still dreaming about their crème fraiche pancakes. They were to die for and I'm make the commute to Miami just for them. The bowl that I got was delicious as well. Coffee was great, small portion but the lavender flavor was delicious without making the drink taste soapy. The only thing that disappointed me was that they were out of their more popular baked goods when I got there for lunch at a relatively early time. I hope to be able to try them at some point in the future. Place is beautiful with instagramable spots and the service was fine!“

“They say size matters... Family and I stopped here for midday Sunday breakfast. Place was packed but luckily we were able to find a table quickly. Parking was on the street and not the greatest but again we got lucky and found a spot rather quickly. You have to pay by phone. Inside the place had a good roar as they had a fully seated restaurant. They have a large spacious dining room and good size service counter as well. As you walk in you can't help but notice their spread of large croissants and other baked goods. We decided to order the French Toast, Croque Madame and the Kids Egg Breakfast along with an Almond Croissant and of course a Guava and Cheese Croissant. Everything was really tasty and came out pretty quick. French Toast was probably my favorite but I have a sweet tooth. The Croque Madame was perfectly cooked. The egg just oozed out upon touching it. I felt it was also a nice sized portion. I had to take some home. The croissants were also really good. They had ample amounts of filling and thats saying a lot given their size. I can see how you could just go in and have a coffee and croissant for breakfast and would be satisfied. In fact I might be doing that more often here. The guava though I would have preferred it to be more of a marmalade like consistency instead of guava jelly like but still it was very good. I have to also give a special shout out to their Orange Juice. Wow it was so fresh. My only complaint was that I wish I could have endless refills although it was nice that our orders included coffee and orange juice. As we were heading out they had a line out the door of folks waiting to be seated. So you might have to wait but the place is worth it. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. They even have the cutest little to go boxes. Overall great place for breakfast and I would definitely be coming back. Recommend if in the area.“

“This restaurant is a hidden Kendall gem! Thank goodness my friend just happened upon it when going to Wawa. It was on a Monday. On Monday’s everything is buy one, get one free! Two churrasco dinners for $20…. Amazing!!!!! They give you complimentary homemade mariquitas before dinner … yum! The fajitas are also amazing! On Wednesday, they have buy one, get one free sandwiches. They were huge and delicious. Try it out on a Monday! You will be so happy you did! From now on, it’s my Monday and Wednesday retreat!“

“An amazing little cafe in the middle of a concrete jungle, what a find. It's simply a counter, you order and wait, then you can head out to the reflecting pool to eat. All the food is fresh and made daily, it's breakfast and lunch, very good and reasonably priced ! We had the ham and cheese croissant, the Sunday sandwich and 2 Americanos for $20 plus tip. It was hot, fresh and very tasty. The coffee was amazing and the 2 women who ran the spot were delightful. It's just basically a food stand, no real ambiance, but it is clean and efficient. We can't wait to go back and try lunch, homemade soups and sandwiches........“

“This man right here Emmanuel ROCKsThe vibes out this bike shop beat a lot of places. It’s a vibe and can accustom a lot of people that are into both communities of biking and café (kava spots)If you love a citrus kratom they got a fire mix.Everything here is unique too.I got the Mr T green and it’s excellent.Next I’m trying the cheech and Chong 50/50 mix of kava and kratom.“

“On Wednesdays this is the place to be for happy hour. They usually have sponsorships and tech networking events where they provide free drinks and pizza. You get to meet locals in the area as well as other entrepreneurs and business owners. It's a great spot to also mingle with friends and catch up.“

“I really like the vibe of the place. The Milk Teas are good and prices are very reasonable. Nice place to hangout with friends and have boba, they also have game boards but it was too late when we found out about it. Will definitely come back.“

“We love coming here for breakfast. My favorite dish is the French toast and the avocado toast. Their lemonade and coffee is amazing. The croquettas are a must try. The serves are always very attentive to your needs. Sometimes during the weekends there's a wait to be seated but nothing unreasonable. The ambiance is great, there's always music playing and very family oriented. Highly recommended.“

“First time here and it is really good. I had the pesto chicken quinoa bowl. It’s beyond good, it’s super tasty and I would have it again. Also had the tomato basil soup and it was great. Will be coming back for sure. There’s parking space in the front of the restaurant very convenientDietary restrictions: They have Gluten Free bread but it’s not a GF kitchen“

“Saw on Tik Tok, thought the place would have a vibe and good food. The service was good. I ordered the Stuffed Crab surprise and it was cold. They immediately remedied by cooking another meal. The crab was tasty, seasoned and the surprise was delicious (I won't spoil it for you). The peppers were excellent choice to add a depth of flavor. We had Strawberry Lavender tea which my mom enjoyed so much she drank both of ours. Give a try, Be patient, parking and seating is limited.“

“The food is a little pricey for what it is, but not where it is. The portions are adequate, and the setting is very comfortable. The employees were friendly and welcoming. As we sat and ate, the restaurant started to fill up with regulars. If I lived nearby, I would probably be one of them. As it is, I'm glad I had the opportunity to visit this cozy lounge.“

“Food was worth the wait. We ordered oxtails with rice and peas curry, shrimp, jerk, chicken, mac & cheese, chicken patties plantains and rum punch. All excellent and we have traveled many Caribbean islands... Jamaica, Grenada, Antigua, Dominican Republic, and this place had the best Caribbean food. The spice level was great. The food was fresh. The service was great, and we even ended up there a little later than we had wanted and we still felt like we were welcome, the restaurant is spacious and plays good music.“

“Special cauliflower salad was absolutely refreshing an delicious. The raisins were the perfect touch. My friend enjoyed the Monty dumplings. Said the sauce was exquisite and loved dipping the bread in it. Outdoor seating is awesome they have great fans. Tables are spread out, chairs are comfy, service is fast and terrrific thank you Ysben!“

“Location is just perfect, amazing view by the bay, with pretty good options for quick lunch or breakfast, I just ideal for relax and enjoy a coffee. The food truck is pretty and the environment is always clean, service is good too fast and nice“

“My husband and I had lunch here twice while visiting Miami. We thought the food, ambiance and service were excellent. Our first visit we split a Perez Chopped salad with chicken. I had a Coke and a nonalcoholic Honey Mule Gingerbeer. We sat on the lovely outdoor patio overlooking the water. We were first time visitors to Miami, so we especially enjoyed looking at the Miami skyline. Then we toured the Perez Art Museum. We liked this restaurant so much we decided to dine here again when we visited the Frost Museum of Science, which is next door. This time we ate inside since it was raining. We split the delicious Perez Chopped Salad and some toast. This wonderful restaurant was recommended to us by a longtime Florida resident. We would be happy to dine at this restaurant even if not visiting the museums.“

“I really liked the concept and the atmosphere, the menu was very good and the coffee was acceptable. I won't give it 5 stars because the truth is that I travel the world visiting coffee places and in that aspect life has led me to make my opinion a little more cruel, but for people looking for a coffee in that area to sit and share a good conversation, I recommend it. More of my visit on my Instagram travel_a_for_coffee“

“Knee is without a doubt my favorite place. The incredible cold sandwiches and the coffee and sweets from beyond. Gustavo's attention is always unbeatable. He always gives us some nice words. 200% recommended!Rodilla is without any question my favorite place. Cold sandwiches and coffee and pastries are incredible. Gustavo’s attention is the best. I recommend 200%!“

“I went to Ice Box Cafe for their Taste of Today pre-fix menu. For only $34, you get an appetizer, an entree, and a dessert! Everything was SPECTACULAR! Our waiter Nate was incredibly attentive to us and made sure to bring plates to share because we wanted to try a little bit of everything. I definitely recommend the Chilled Carrot & Ginger Soup and the Filet of Beef au Polvre. The other servers Josue and Sergio made incredible cocktails & just the overall attention was amazing. I cannot emphasize enough. This is the second time I come to eat here and they always make you feel like family. I love coming here when I'm in Miami Beach because the food is 10/10, the restaurant is so cute, and I love interacting with the staff!“

“My second time here at Mr. Baguette. A very cute quaint spot located in wynwood. The perfect spot for some breakfast or lunch date. I got to try the avocado toast, it was very good. My friend had breakfast sandwich. She enjoyed it as well. Love their matcha latte. Would recommend this place for some yummy breakfast.“

“Best. Sandwiches. In. Kendall. These guys have been here since I can remember! They are a west kendall institution and are a great hometown business to support! I've been coming for 25 years to order a #13 with a cafecito! You should too and bring a friend because the portions are as real as the food being prepared fresh in front of you.“

“Cienfuegos Coffee Miami provided cafecito and dessert for our event at an available office /warehouse space. Carina made sure that our guests smelled the freshly brewed coffee as the entered and no one left disappointed! Highly recommendDietary restrictions: Options were provided for those that don't drink milk.“

“Went for a business lunch and was treated like a king. Ana was a VIP host, and the coffee was the best one I’ve got in a long time. Got a chance to meet the owner, Tania, and this will surely become my spot for lunch meetings from now on. Beautiful people, excellent treatment and vibrant atmosphere. Coming back soon….“

“Today I got to try Ice Ice Baby Tea Drink and I got a Caramel White Chocolate protein waffle. Let me just say WOW I was not disappointed. It was so yummy and tasted awesome. Can't wait to go back and get another waffle and try another drink flavor.“

“This is our office go-to! The salads are large and made to order, and everything is extremely fresh. I recommend knowing what you would like to get before you reach the counter, because the line (despite usually long at lunchtime) moves fast. Tip: The salad combo includes a drink and chips, and it's just a few dollars more. Nice value!“

“Discovered this charming spot while waiting for my car wash – a hidden gem in a green jungle with vendors, restaurants, and more. Spent 3 hours unwinding, enjoying the peaceful vibe. The menu offers healthy choices like fresh juices, unsweetened matcha, and a delicious gluten-free crepe!“

“We found the place by chance and it was a success.The prices are very cheap since its audience is, in the vast majority, port workers.They have a very varied menu and the service is quite fast for the number of people there.What we tried was very delicious.“

“Someone posted about this place and went to try it for myself. The customer service was already great when I got there. They came up quickly and since it was my first time there, they quickly explained what they do. Love that there are photos of for each of the items. I ordered croquetas alongside with my pizza since I got out of work and was really hungry and thought the pizza wouldn't be enough. Let me tell you, it is a decent size for a personal pizza that I didn't really get the chance to eat the croquetas. I was immediately full! I loved that. Not too much but enough to fill up. The price was also decent as well. My personal pizza costed $10.40, which was the Chicken Rustica Pizza, and the croquetas were $5.20. I definitely recommend coming here for comfort food ?Well give a quick warning that parking is limited so it's better to carpool.“

“Super cute and welcoming atmosphere! Feels like you are inside a page from a magazine. Little decorative details on the tables, the decor all around, it makes you want to sit and soak up the vibe. There's a book shelf with books, plants on the window sill, big windows with lots day light coming in. The service was fantastic! The owner is so friendly, nice and sweet, she was hard at work along with her staff to quickly and efficiently get the food out. We didn't wait long. The food was delicious! Lots of vegan options! I shared a zuccini soup with my 3 year old and we both loved it! It was surprisingly VERY tasty! I never thought zuccini was a good "soup" veggetable, but this definitely changed my mind. I also had a veggie panini, and one of their juices. Everything tasted wholesome and delicious! If I am ever in Miami again, I'm definitely coming back!“

“???? means "???" in French (no, they did not misspell Miami ?) and thats exactly what you say when you try a bite of the fluffy soufflé pancakes at MIAM Cafe (@miam.cafe) ?. I was immediately enamored by these and haven't stop thinking of them since! The burger was also pretty tasty. The service could use some work, and a couple of times I have come during their opening hours, and they were either entirely closed or the kitchen itself was closed. A big bummer considering the location is a bit annoying to get to.?MCD hack: park at the College Station Garage a few blocks away and take a ??????? (@ridefreebee) to the restaurant. You get 50% off parking just for ordering the Freebee!~Add me on @miamicheatdays for more recommendations~“

“The manager Daniela helped me, she was very attentive to me, she was kind enough to take my order and make it at the same time, I ordered a hot chocolate and a Serrano Capresse Sandwich with extra grilled chicken, the bread was fresh, hot, toasted and crunch with that pesto sauce was simply an explosion on the palate, simply delicious, thank you for your service, I recommend you 100%.“

“This place is excellent, Dames Brown ate lunch there, delicious smoothies, shrimp taco! Each dish looks beautiful tastes amazing. You can get last minute items (sun glasses, toiletries , snacks, and play the lottery)before sailing in the Scarlet Lady! We will be backWheelchair accessibility: Doors can accommodate wheelchairs , tables are correct height for wheelchair“

“This restaurant is nice and welcoming, the food is good for the price, the cook usually comes out and greets you, the only thing I disliked in my last visit is that I paid and did not include a tip because I feel like tips are optional depending if you like the service but it is hard to tip if you are paying first and receiving service after because you don’t know if you will like the service, so long story short initially I did not include the tip and the cashier/server asked me about the tip like it is mandatory, so she said you can also give cash which I did not have so I had to end up paying it with my credit card with tax added because I felt pressured to do so, I don’t like feeling pressured to give tips so for this only reason not sure if I will return.“

“I inadvertently found this place. Was looking for a Starbucks, didn’t walk far enough to see it, so I decided to stop here, at Primos Deli Miami. It was, for me, one of the best panini I’ve had in a REALLY long time!!! Super recommend!!!“

“Don't let the gas station part fool you this is a very classy nice little coffee spot.They make your coffee the way you want it and the sandwiches are just downright excellent they use Boar's Head meat. You can sit outside while your car is washed or you can just come in and grab something to eat it is a great little spot. Best warm ham and cheese croissant I've had in a while. Not greasy.They have wonderful sandwichesVegetarian options: They are so accommodating they would make anything you want there unless you're just one of those people that can't be satisfiedParking: It's not a huge parking lot but there are readily available spots as well as a handicap spot“

“One of my favourite spots to have brunch in the grove. The second floor overlooks the street with floor to ceiling windows so you can people or car watch. On a weekend you’ll see a lot of special cars driving through on their way up from old cutler. The food is great, no complaints there. The service is attentive and pleasant. Nothing bad to say about this spot at all“
