Cafes near North Miami Beach

“First time here. Wonderful authentic food. Great staff, very welcoming to out-of-towners. Walked us through the menu and guided us to some amazing dishes. Will definitely be back next time we are in town. Try the Cuban sandwich, of course! The pork was lean, the flavors all blended together great, and with some crystal hot sauce, perfection! Erica had the ground beef sandwich which is a Cuban taken on sloppy joes with raisins and olives, absolutely delightful with their “pink sauce” garlic, spicy deliciousness. Come by soon and you’ll be here often!“

“Lilou is very amicable and offers great service. Loved the food there!“

“Just had another fantastic dinner from Mama Pizza. Really delicious dough and the fusion menu is great. I highly recommend!!!“

“This hidden gem was great! We came thinking it was another business on google, turned out that one closed but this one was the same argentinian bakery we were seeking. The milanesa sandwhich was one of the best i’ve ever had and the coffee was delicious. The plain factura could’ve been better but that was the only downside. Service by the young man was also great.“

“fast and delicious acai bowls with a large variety of toppings.“

“This review is long overdue and I've been slacking. I cannot gush about this place enough! I heard about maman opening up before it was actually opened. Stoked about it because it's originally a NYC spot. And we all know NYC has some of the best eats!!!

Went during first week after it opened in Feb 2024 because coincidentally I was in Wynwood for something else. Had to stop in to snag some coffee and their Dark Chocolate Orange Cubed Croissant. Absolute heaven. The cubed croissant was perfectly layered and fun to eat. The filling was just the right hint of sweetness without being overly indulgent.

The ambiance is everything. I walked in and was immediately transported to a cute French cafe. The decor is heavenly. They thought of every little detail from the space, furniture, lighting, dishware, glassware, wallpaper and presentation on every level. It's super charming. I loved it so much I had planned a girls brunch the following month in March. We couldn't wait!

Brunch day came and my girlfriends fell in love with the space just as much as I did. They don't take reservations, first come first serve. So we arrived on a Sat morning as soon as they opened and were seated right away. Had a bit of everything. We had a variety of cocktails, because brunch. Sangria Tropicale was yummy. The Everything Croissant & Salmon Sandwich and Eggs Ratatouille is so damn good. My girls enjoyed the Croque maman but it was too much for me, too much cheese and way too rich.

We noticed our server wasn't dressed like the rest of the staff so we asked him about it. Turns out our server was also the owner, Ben. That says everything about the owner that they are willing to jump out there and help their team and do the work. Ben was awesome! He was incredibly kind and so very humble. He told us that he moved to South Florida from NYC and planned on opening several other maman locations. I love everything about maman so I'm so happy for their success! We had a lovely brunch experience and I would highly recommend. We even got a selfie with Ben. Such a cool guy! Thanks for the hospitality Ben. Sorry for this super late review. Lol.

I was at maman this past weekend after the South Florida Seafood Festival. I told hubby since we were in the area, we had to stop by maman which was right around the corner. Literally made it there 10 minutes before closing and Yann was kind enough to accommodate my order for coffee and pastries, whatever was left. Haha. We got a Honey Lavender Latte, Espresso d'Orange, Kouign maman and Banana Walnut Bread. The Kouign maman is KING!!! I am obsessed with peeling the layers like a sideways fruit roll up. The flavor and caramelization was absolute perfection. Dare I say it's even better than Dominque Ansel's Kouign Amann which is the first time I ever had this pastry. OH EM GEEEEE!!! Don't skip on this. Next time I will stock up. Lol. Banana Walnut Bread was just ok, quite dry and not very moist as I had hoped.

Bonus: maman uses the InKind app. I got a $10 off $20 discount using my app. SCORE!!!

Everything I've had at maman:

* Dark Chocolate Orange Cubed Croissant
* Eggs Ratatouille
* Croque maman
* Everything Croissant & Salmon Sandwich
* Sangria Tropicale
* Mom-osa
* Bellini
* Frosé
* Honey Lavendar Latte
* Espresso d'Orange
* Kouign maman
* Banana Walnut Bread

maman has about 40 locations nationwide including NY, FL, NJ, CT, DC, MD, PA, Montreal and Toronto. Check them out. You won't be sorry!“

“What an amazing experience I had today at this bakery luckily for me it was their one year anniversary and the owner himself happened to be here What a great gentleman congratulations to him and his family keep striving for greatness - GARCIA“

“This is the best take on Israeli food I've tried in the US so far, and that says a lot... Everything was delicious, especially the hummus & pita (which are so hard to get right!) and the Jerusalem bagel. Please open Motek in the bay area!“

“This is a happy place! Service and kava, kratom drinks are excellent. Welcoming atmosphere. Dog friendly. Located in a bike shop, so if you like bikes, they’re all around. Great place to hang out with friends and make new ones.

Wheelchair accessibility: Street level. No step up.“

“Fun place! Beautiful decor based on roses…romantic and sweet. Had a breakfast meeting there-good coffee and breakfast menu!“

“Cute, old school neighborhood restaurant where all the locals go. The food and service was good, and had great prices. The atmosphere... It needs to be updated, but I liked it that way as it brought back good childhood memories for me. And even though it was outdated, everything was kept clean. No complaints from me. I'll definitely be going back!“

“Zak had been on my list since day one of my trip to Miami, and I finally made it there for brunch. The wait time was about 30 minutes, so I opted for a to-go order. Here’s what I tried:
• Avocado Toast: A well-curated dish. The thinly sliced onions, lime, and paprika dressing were a perfect combination.
• Tomato Bisque & Grilled Cheese Sandwich: Easily the best I’ve ever had. The sandwich was perfectly crisp, and the tomato dip elevated the flavors even further. I savored every bite.
• Mushroom Toast: This one didn’t hit the mark for me. The pairing of the bread with the mushrooms felt off, and the mushroom topping was excessively oily. The cheese didn’t complement the dish either. While it wasn’t terrible, it just wasn’t for me.
• Mango Cheesecake: Inspired by seeing others order it, I decided to give it a try—and I’m so glad I did. Every bite was delightful. The star fruit garnish was a pleasant surprise, adding a unique and delicious touch.

The ambience is bustling yet inviting, and the service was impressively quick. I also appreciated the eco-friendly packaging.

Finally, the Matcha Latte was a solid choice.

Overall, Zak is a must-visit if you’re in town!“

“Best espresso ever !Chocante Mocha fantastic !“

“Such it a nice experience . The owner was friendly and knowledgeable, guiding me to the perfect shake — creamy, delicious, and balanced.

“Excellent service and food!!!!!“

“Love the wraps at Juice Therapy!“

“Effe Cafe is a very convenient location. The service is excellent and the food is excellent! Support them!“

“My daughter wanted macaroons on her bday cake. We've tried a few places in the area, but this place had the best variety! I got 12 different flavors and they still had some flavors we didn't try this time. They were beautiful and tasted great! I went right when they opened on a Thursday, very polite. We will definitely come again“

“Delicious food, great service, all my picky eaters were well fed!“

“Tried YES Cafe based on Google reviews, and was not disappointed. Hubby had the Breakfast Bowl and I had the Breakfast Burrito. 5/5“

I recommend this place to all lovers of good food and excellent service. I will definitely be back soon!“

“My fiance and I are on vacation and we picked this random spot to get a sandwhich and the sandwhiches were really good. I just got a simple turkey and my fiance got the cuban. Food is excellent, the owner is excellent. We discussed his back story while our food was cooking and discussed where we are from. Overall great place!“

“After finishing a 5K with friends, we decided to reward ourselves—and Upper Tea delivered a post-run feast that left us stuffed. We came in with big appetites and even bigger expectations—and they were met.

I ordered the beef sausage bowl with grits (for me), the catfish bowl with grits and eggs (for my husband), a side of smothered chicken, and French toast—because, why not indulge? My husband and I shared the chicken and French toast, and even after everyone dug in, we still left behind enough food to feed three to four people. The portions are no joke—come ready!

The food? Flavor-packed. The catfish was a tad salty, but not enough to stop my husband from clearing his plate. The sausage was decent, but those grits—creamy, cheesy, and savory—were next-level good. The French toast had a perfectly crisp edge and just the right amount of sweetness. Every bite felt like comfort food elevated.

Our drinks—both the tea special and a custom tea mix—were sweet at first, but after letting the ice melt a bit, they hit that perfect, refreshing balance.

And let’s talk about service—Jeniyah (I hope I spelled her name right!) was an absolute gem. She was so sweet, constantly checked in on us, reassured us that our food was on the way, and apologized for the short wait—which, honestly, wasn’t bad at all considering how many of us there were. To top it all off, the chef came out to personally greet us and ask how everything tasted. That kind of hospitality goes a long way.

The ambiance was charming and cozy, with vintage touches like an old-fashioned pay phone, record player, and classic tea sets that made the whole experience feel like a hidden gem. Now although you can dine-in, this is more pay for what you want at the register and everything comes in a To go bag at your table. I didn’t mind that because it made it easy for taking left over home but it didn’t seem very welcoming to sit and eat.

Upper Tea isn’t just a meal—it’s a moment. From the grits to the heartfelt hospitality, this place is a must-visit. Bring your appetite and your friends—you’ll leave full in every sense of the word.“

“Came here for a quick lunch, greeted and served by Rommel he was kind. And did a great job with our food, we ordered the steak taco bowl, the portion was great for the price I was stuffed in the end. And it was delicious, the rice and meat was seasoned. There was aircon aswell which was lovely. Defo recommend!“

“It doesn’t get much better than Taste of the City. I have been coming here for many years. The food and I had about everything is always hot, fresh and delicious. The owner Debra is one of the nicest and most genuine people you can ever meet. I can eat anywhere from the Hard Rock, Ft. Lauderdale to Miami Beach but I prefer to come here. I have been very lucky this have this great restaurant within walking distance. The waitress is always friendly and keeps everything moving smoothly. Your drink is never empty. I only wish they were open for dinner. But then again Debra and the stuff need the time to rest. And we should or at least I should. Take Debra to dinner for having such a wonderful place. And really this is the place where everyone knows your name.“

“Amazing place! Must come!!!“

“Really awesome vibe! Loved the courtyard and location, felt private and tucked away in the shade yet it's right there at 20th and Collins, a 2 minute walk to the ocean. Tanya and DJ made our morning. So friendly! The breakfast wraps were delicious, and they also made us a great Americano. It was a great inexpensive breakfast, tough to find in Miami Beach!“

“Very cute cafe! This place is clean and bright with lots of options for breakfast, lunch, pastries and snacks. I got the Veggie wrap, it was delicious with quinoa and avocado and veggies. The sugar free vanilla latte is delish! The staff was very friendly and helpful!“

“The two sisters ( Lida and Daisy ) are an absolute ball of energy and love. I’ve been coming here for over 20 years and every time I bring friends or family they are always thoroughly impressed with the service and quality of food. 5 stars all the way !!“

“If you want to eat in a hidden gem in the heart of Hialeah, look no further. The croqueta preparada is exceptional, la ropa vieja, las masitas de puerco, the mahi etc.. I’ve gone bake numerous times to keep trying other dishes. The dulce de leche and bon bon cafe is the only way to end your meal. Nothing but praise for this restaraunt and great service.“

“Excellent food and outstanding service. I have been enjoying Dano's homemade meals for a couple of years and I can not say enough about it. Almost every morning I go for cafesito and empanadas or facturas. They always greet customers with a smile and positive energy. We are treated like family not customers. Thank Dano's family for bringing us a little piece of home with every meal.“

“Lean environment and the cashier are very nice and the food is delicious I’ll be going back again and spreading the word about this awesome place“
