    This place is often filled with people, because the food is that good, and the plates are rather large. Unless you're starving I'd advise sharing a plate if you're with someone. I had the Nutella French Toast, and it was large and tasty. I couldn't have finished it on my own, but luckily I didn't go alone lol.

    Stopped in the get a bite to eat & was pleasantly surprised at how quickly we were seated due to a Graduation crowd in the area. Soon after being seated, our Server came to the table to take care of Us. He was very pleasant & we connected over my shades (he was happy that I shared the info with him). We ordered the Chicken & Waffles which came out promptly. The food was well done & their Hot Honey condiment needs to be sold in stores. If you're in Downtown Miami, pull up to Bistro Café. #MallyMalApproved

    Shrimp and Sándwich de Pollo / Chicken Sandwich

    When I tell you this place has the BEST waffles I've ever had in my life! There's such a big menu they literally have everything, from sandwiches, to breakfast, brunch, avocado toast, burgers, etc. The shrimp and chicken wrap was amazing very tasteful with a bunch of different flavors and the sauce was so good!! The drinks are made so fancy too with so much extra stuff on top. I would definitely come back again and this is a must visit place to come to!

    Stopped by Bistro Café for brunch and had a great experience. I ordered the pastrami pressed sandwich with breakfast potatoes, and it was excellent. The pastrami was flavorful, the bread was perfectly toasted, and the sandwich was stacked with ingredients. The breakfast potatoes were crispy, well-seasoned, and a great side. I also tried the waffles with Nutella, fresh fruit, and whipped cream, and they were delicious. The waffles were light and fluffy, and the fresh fruit balanced everything out really well. The coffee presentation was unique, served with a chocolate cookie crumble rim that added a nice touch. I also really liked the ambiance of the place it had a relaxed, welcoming vibe that makes it a great spot to sit down and enjoy a good brunch. Overall, great food, generous portions, and a really enjoyable atmosphere. I'll definitely be back. And the service was amazing also!!

    I loveeeee this cafe. Bistro Cafe is one of those spots where the menu is just as extravagant as the plates themselves. The portions are HUGE and the menu can honestly feel a little overwhelming at first. The waiters will even recommend checking out their Instagram to see pictures before ordering, which actually helps a lot. I've been here numerous times and have tried so many things off the menu. It does get busy, especially on weekends, and sometimes there's a long wait outside. Just be prepared for that because it's popular for a reason. Service is always good and they really try their best to help first timers navigate the menu and recommend dishes. They're patient and used to people asking a lot of questions. The papa griegas with skirt steak is by far my favorite dish. It's honestly big enough to share with two people. I tried it with chicken this time and it just didn't hit the same. The skirt steak version is undefeated. The pastrami sandwich was also really good and super satisfying. Ambiance wise, it's lively and bright with lots of seating inside and some outdoor seating as well. It feels energetic and fun, perfect for brunch with friends. I would 100 percent recommend coming. Just plan ahead and expect a wait if you're going during peak weekend hours.

    The food was delicious and service was great! I ordered eggs over medium with bacon and blueberry pancakes. Plenty of food. I couldn't finish it all, but I sure tried.

    Finally got the chance to try Bistro Café after eyeing it for a while. The restaurant is spacious with plenty of seating--we were able to get a table for six with only a 25-minute wait. The food is fresh and comes out quickly. The menu is very large, so I recommend looking it up beforehand, as it can be a bit overwhelming. My favorite dish was the crème brûlée French toast; it was perfectly balanced and not overly sweet. My fiancé and I shared the French toast along with an omelet, which worked out great since the portion sizes are generous and easily shareable. The steak omelet was especially satisfying--they definitely did not skimp on the steak. I recommend ordering one savory dish and one sweet dish. As for the drinks, we all ordered coffee. The iced latte was good, though it came unsweetened--I'm not sure if they offer syrup sweeteners, so I'd recommend asking if you prefer it sweetened. That said, the coffee was nice and strong with no complaints. Overall decently priced for the amount of food you receive, I would come here again.

    Espresso Martini

    What a nice place for my recovery brunch! This past Sunday, after running the "Give Miami 5K" in nearby Bayfront Park, myself and friends from my gym headed up here for brunch. I've been to the Gables location before and love their tasty and well presented brunch delicacies. Ours was a group of 10 and after a reasonable wait, we were able to sit into adjacent tables. Fashionwise, we were not necessarily in our Sunday best but rather with our racing T-shirts and number bibs. We still had great timely service. I appreciate the fact that our servers weren't trying to rush us out. My "hydration" started in the form of a well blended espresso martini, even with coffee beans. I also tried the spicy margarita with the boozy paleta a friend ordered. Since I was starving from the run itself, as well as not having eaten since the early afternoon before, "comí con los ojos" and ordered both their Chicken Trifongo as well as a Nutella French toast. The trifongo was really yummy! Picture of bed of fried green plantain "tostones" sitting on a sweet waffle, topped with a sunny side up egg and then surrounded by pieces of grilled chicken and garnished with red onion. It was well flavored, and I had enough to take his leftovers for lunch at work. My two very large pieces of French toast, generously spread with Nutella and various berries was a sweet ending. I had enough to share bikes with my team as well as take home.

    This trendy restaurant in Miami is a popular spot known for its breakfast and brunch menu. The menu is bilingual English and Spanish. It was packed and crowded when we walked in on a Sunday during lunch. They took our name and we waited outside in line for about 25 minutes before being seated. The ambiance is very vibrant with a cool decor. They have a pretty extensive menu. I had the Smoked Salmon Croissant with goat cheese $18. It was good. My friend had eggs that were too runny. The server was very friendly and efficient.

    Lobster eggs Benedict
    Cas B.

    Of course there is always a line and a wait for this place. And the food took quite a while to come out after we ordered. There are so many menu options it's kind of overwhelming. But lots to choose from and try! We got the lobster eggs Benedict which was good. Also the crème brûlée French toast which was not too sweet and had a nice crust. It's tourist prices because it's a tourist spot. Had to sit outside because inside was full. They had cool music playing outside though. It's a cool spot to take visitors from out of town but def not my go to breakfast spot.

    Nice decor and modern ambience in downtown perfect after a matinee performance at the Arsht. Loaded avocado was massive! Two could eat from this (or I ate the left overs twice over!) the guava sauce add just the right amount of sweetness to the chicken without being overboard and the pickled onions balanced it out Mango matcha was phenomenal: natural, no syrups and just the right amount of sweetness

    I really loved having brunch a bistro cafe. The food looks exactly like it does on social media in person, and if you see something on their instagram you like, ask for it because it might not be on their menu but they'll serve you. great customer service and ambiance, we sat outside on a gorgeous morning and ordered the salmon eggs Benedict and steak egg Benedict. 10/10 and a huge portion! I would love to come back.

    Papas Griegas with Steak

    I would like to say for this establishment to be so busy they literally had the best customer service, moved with a sense of urgency and the food was delivered hot! The waitress was very knowledgeable and helpful with the extensive menu. It's in Spanish and English! It was very clean including the bathrooms. I would definitely go every time I'm in Miami! Highly recommend and you should definitely share the portions are huge!

    Ask the Community - Bistro Cafe

    Do the offer Vegan options?

    I know they offer vegetarian options but I'm unsure about vegan options.

    Is there bottomless drinks for brunch?

    No but 2x1 mimosas.

    Do they take reservations?

    No, they do not. Be prepared to stand in line unless you pick off times to go during the week.Good luck!

    Non dairy milk options available?

    Yeah they had oat and almond milk available

    What is the best time to go for brunch on a Saturday?

    Get there fairly early to avoid the crowd. ~10:30 AM I would recommend. Service is pretty good/quick so you'll be eating by regular brunch time.

    Does this place still get crazy packed? Any suggestions on what time to go on weekends

    Before 11:00 am

    How do I make a reservation?

    When I called, they did not do reservations. My best advice if you are going on a weekend is to go around 9AM.

    What is parking like?

    It's paid downtown street parking so you have to search a little bit to find a space. A free parking space may be a block or so away from the restaurant

    Do you take reservations?

    There are street parking, and parking lots nearby.

    Do they have high chairs?

    Yes in the bar area.

    On weekends you need to y e reservation?

    Better if you go during the week, the weekends are a mess! Poor service

    Can you make a reservation?

    No, I went before my daughter's bday to see if they took reservations and the answer was NO, and when I went it was packed.... hello aren't you supposed to be at half capacity due to COVID? I'll wait, then maybe go but no thanks not waiting hours to… 

    Do they have tripletas? Don't see it on the menu but it's a common Puerto Rican sandwich

    Not a sandwich it seems but rather in an omelette

    Do they have brunch all day?

    Yes, and it is delicious!!

    Is there a bottomless mimosa option?

    No, it's not but they aren't stingy with the bubbly 🥂

    Great place to stop for a quick bite on a beach day or when you're not feeling up for a full meal…read more Sandwiches are large and taste great! Plenty of customization options. A counter seat is hit or miss but nice to have available instead of only being a walk up window. Skip the smoothies. They're watery and thus not very filling or flavorful. You're better off getting a sandwich (again, as this was my 2nd visit) or going somewhere else for a smoothie.

    Just one block away from South Beach on 14th Street, this place is a very popular fast food spot…read more Since South Beach restaurants are either expensive (20% gratuity even for a party of two) or extremely crowded, we walked one block inland and found this place. From a distance, it looks like a food truck, but it's actually a full setup designed to look that way. Even in the scorching heat, there was a line--but it moved quickly. Their menu has everything. Think of it as a Subway style setup, but with smoothies, tropical ingredients, and lots of fresh options. Now the main part...We ordered- Chicken Mix Baguette Tuna Baguette Am I the only one who found it just okay? At Subway, at least they toast the bread for a bit. Here, I genuinely struggled with the hard bread--it was tough to chew. Also, the meats were cold, which I'm not used to. I knew that beforehand, but still wanted to try this hyped spot. They have about 5-7 bar style stools for seating, but in the humidity, it's not the most comfortable experience. Freshness (smoothies & ingredients): 5/5 Overall taste & experience: 3/5 Or maybe we're just spoiled by the big fast food chains?
