“I went to look yesterday for a organic cafe and found this pure in the area. Th juices were realy good and greatly appreciated. The service of Carolina the girl there was fantastic and she worked alone realy hard for so many people. The place is calm and very clean and the food realy good. Thank you and maybe today I will drive there to go for some lunch ?“

“Everything is so so fresh. All pastries are fresh and made with great ingredients. It’s one of the few places in Miami where tables are spaced out and not crammed plus very low, nice music that is more relaxing than any other place to have breakfast.
The staff is nice and very attentive. Today i saw the owener or manager help a customer, a mom of 3, to her car with an umbrella.
Just an outstanding service. The meat empanadas are amazing.

Parking: Parkmobile parking lot very close by. Paid street parking which is busy after 9:30

Kid-friendliness: Nice is great to my daughter every time— they make a “special” latte which is milk with a few drops of decaf coffee. Just enough to look like coffee.“

“What a charming place! La Boulangerie has a cozy and authentic atmosphere, perfect for enjoying a good coffee and delicious pastries. I tried several options, from croissants to the café latte, and everything was fresh and full of flavor. Plus, the service was excellent.

I want to highlight Ranses, who did an incredible job recommending options and ensuring we had a perfect experience. I will definitely be back and recommend it to all pastry lovers!“

“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!“

“I am always at this place either buying coffee, croquetas, pan con lechón, or just having lunch in general. I can attest to the quality and authenticity of their food and service. The restaurant is beautifully decorated with a mixture of old and modern Cuban. They have plenty of seats as well as bar seating for a more casual time. I will say it definitely gets packed during the weekend but it is worth the wait.

Their staff is phenomenal. Everyone is kind, attentive, and ready to serve. Their kitchen is fast and the owners are always around and love talking to the customers.

Last, but certainly not least is the food! Their croquetas are stellar, absolutely love them. The coffee is super tasty and so are the Cuban sandwiches, burgers, and platters. Really can’t go wrong with anything.

Having this spot in the neighborhood is truly a pleasure and I hope more people find out how amazing they are.
