Comfort Food Restaurants near Bay Harbor Islands, FL

“Carla and Eddie, the baristas opening early, saw us walking by before opening when no other coffee shop was open.
Carla ran to open the door and invite us in.
Sha made amazing coffee with a smile 😁
You can't teach nice!

As a business owner who understands the struggle to find, I was to let this owner know they have a gem in Carla and Eddie 💎“

“Had a great experience. Croissants were amazing and after we finished, our waitress came up to us and gave us 5 different pastries to take home for free!!!! Thank you.“

“Holy cow this place is amazing!!! Shakes? Indulgent. Fries? Perfect. Beer? Ideal. And the grilled cheese? The best I've had. Short rib, bacon & blue cheese, a Mac n cheese sandwich, and a build your own. So yummy. The right amount of melt and crispy buttery toast. And the service is fabulous. Star, who waited on us, was delightful, helpful, and friendly. We would definitely come here again and will always recommend it to friends. What a treat!!! Thank you!!!“

“I do not care for Mexican tamales, so I was hesitant, but the #1 Cuban tamale with chicarrón and avocado and lime was one of the best things I have ever eaten. We also LOVED the corn and pork soup! Such flavor! The name of this place is not a lie.

Parking: Just a few spots but you can also find street parking.“

“Good food and good service.“

“I planned a corporate event with Flavia at the Brickell location and had such an amazing experience! She made herself available on extremely short notice to help me put together a 40+ person cocktail reception in 1 day. During the event, I didn't have to think about a thing - she was on top of everything; making sure every guest had a drink, food, and was taken care of. They adjusted our food station during the event to better fit our crowd which I really appreciated and also adjusted the items when it was presented to her that we needed more veggie options! The drinks, atmosphere, and food were perfect and I cannot say enough great things about working with Flavia, it was such a seamless event!“

“We flew in from Dallas and our air bnb was right around the corner and we happened to find this place on the first day for breakfast and each day we ate a different meal there and was never disappointed with anything! I will highly recommend to any all of my friends will visiting Miami. Yes it’s a little pricey but the portions were more than enough to share! Mac and cheese was is a must. Mariano was just one of our servers but was absolutely awesome!“

“The experience of trying the Godzilla ramen was quite enjoyable, as the dish itself was undeniably delicious. However, a significant drawback was the portion size; it felt rather small, leading to the conclusion that dining in might have been the better option to fully savor the experience. To compound this, I regret not requesting extra noodles at the time of ordering. Despite these minor issues regarding portioning, the establishment holds strong appeal as a positive place to visit. The atmosphere is well-suited for social gatherings, making it a great spot to bring friends and family. A notable highlight that contributed to the positive overall impression was the highly friendly and welcoming nature of the staff.“

“Wow! Where do I even begin? Let’s start with the macaroni and cheese—utterly divine! Each forkful is a cheesy dream come true, with the perfect balance of creamy goodness and tender pasta. And those mashed potatoes? They’re like a warm hug on a plate, so velvety smooth and rich in flavor.

Now, let’s talk about those slow-roasted short ribs. My taste buds are still singing from the savory explosion of tender meat and mouthwatering juices. The salmon? Cooked to absolute perfection, with a delicate flakiness and a burst of flavor in every bite.

But wait, there’s more! The garlic rice, oh how I adore thee! The aroma alone is enough to make my mouth water, and the flavor? It’s like a garlic lover’s dream come true, perfectly complementing every dish it touches.

And let’s not forget about the steakhouse corn—it’s like a burst of sunshine on the plate! Sweet, succulent kernels kissed with just the right amount of smoky char and buttery goodness. Each bite is a delightful explosion of flavor, perfectly balancing sweetness with a hint of savory richness.

And the banana pudding? Pure dessert heaven! Each layer is a symphony of creamy custard, ripe bananas, and nostalgic vanilla cookies.

In summary, these culinary delights have left us utterly speechless. Each bite was a journey of flavor and satisfaction, and I cannot wait to come back for more. Bravo to the chef for creating such a memorable experience!“

“Highly recommended when you want to take advantage of a beautiful day. Mike was hands down the most attentive and kind bartender.“

“Great food and a fantastic atmosphere. I had the pleasure of meeting Pierre, the owner — truly a down-to-earth guy. Enjoyed some drinks at the bar while listening to great music. The food was delicious and well-prepared. Highly recommend.“

“Tiki Fish n Burgers” and “Jules Kitchen” are actually the same place. I came during happy hour from 3–6 PM and it was a great deal. A large Aperol Spritz was only $7. I ordered the mini burgers and the chicken wings — both $9. The mini burgers were pretty good, but the chicken wings were a bit dry. Overall, a nice spot, especially during happy hour“
