I tried it as is a friend's favorite place. Not being Venezuelan myself I am honestly not a fan of the food at all. Things that make food taste better are salt, butter, frying. It's all of the above and not more than average. Food is pretty monotone. Great on social media pictures but below mediocre in real. Service was friendly (but some staff members only speak Spanish), and they have good opening hours. read more

This is our favorite cheat day spot. While they do have healthy options, it is undoubtedly an amazing place to order from when you just want comfort food. I have tried every Venezuelan place in the brickell/downtown area, and I can say Budare has the BEST Cachapa. Their customer service is great, the food is consistently high quality, and you get to support a small business. Highly recommend! read more

"rude, rude, rude" should be the name of this establishment. No welcome, not even good morning, very unapproachable, their opening line only was: "there will be a long wait, over 20mins for a to go order". Customers dining in were inquiring about the status of their food. I stopped by to buy a Xmas dish for a friend who enjoys this cuisine. The owner should train staff to leave their "attitude" elsewhere or wherever they came from...service and courtesy or lack of can make or break a place. Good luck, Budare! read more

The service is not excellent, but the food is amazing Venezuelan flavors inside and outside seating, food come out in good timing, the café con leche reminds me the one my abuelita did for me when I was a kid, give it a try read more

This restaurant has ample parking unless it is super busy. I tried 1 arepa, the churros and 2 empanadas. It wasn't bad at all, however I would recommend Doggi's Arepa Bar first. If you had no spare time, this place is fine. Definitely all unhealthy, but good overall. read more

Located in the roads neighborhood in a very small strip. The hours of operation are great since they open until late! This is a very very small space however, I love the budare sampler & cachapa. Whenever I'm out late this is the place to go or just craving some Venezuelan goodies! read more

The food was amazing. We had hard time deciding what to eat so we got the sampler and it felt like home. The staff was so kind and sweet. And the marketplace next to it was lovely too. read more

I have been to this spot around three times. This is one of my favorite authentic Venezuelan food spots. There is a good variety on the menu and they even have the famous Venezuelan chicha, a rice based drink (oh the memories) My husband ordered the shredded beef pepito with fries, and I ordered the Arepa pelua which comes with shredded beef and Gouda cheese. Needless to say the meat tastes fresh and it is well seasoned. We also ordered a side of tequeños that were pretty good. I would say my only complaint (and this may not be the restaurants fault) is that there is no parking, there are only a couple of spots and it gets packed, so you either have to park in the street or wait for someone to leave. Overall we had great food and great service read more

A friend of mine told me about this place, and I drove by it on a daily, but never really noticed it. Then this past weekend, we finally decided to pay a visit. The place is a little small, but yet cozy and nicely decorated. We sat down, and immediately looked at the menu. We started off with some tequeños for our little one, which she loved, so much that we ordered a second round. They were really good, lots of cheese in them and they came with a delicious Passion Fruit dipping sauce. Then the owner, very nice guy who happened to be sitting on the table right next to us, gave us a few suggestions. He also prepared for us one of the best iced teas I've ever had. So on with the food. We got Mini Arepas of Asado Negro and Reina Pepeada, both were excellent, although I must say that I enjoyed the Asado Negro more, it came with some sauce on the side which was amazing. We also got Mini Cachapas with Queso Guayanes and Queso de Mano, they were good as well. And then we also had Mandocas, sweet and tasty, and the cheese was also very good. I enjoyed this visit and will be coming back soon. read more

Saw this spot covered on a YouTube channel while looking for spots to try in Miami. Did not disappoint! The mini arepas were perfect to try their selections. Their hot sauce was so good I wanted to take the bottle home haha. My bf had the platter with the steak, chicken and sausage with fries and he absolutely loved it. Cool little spot to check out for a late night eat! read more

The asado negro here is good, but I can't say I'm a fan of this place. The portions are small and I think much of the dough for the arepas need work. I suspect size has something to do with it as well, as the smaller the arepas are, the harder it is to cook. And this goes for other things as well, including the mini-cachapas. I also think the tequeños need some work as well as it was a bit too doughy for my liking. And the mandocas are a little too hard - and they should also have added shredded queso blanco on top, which they didn't. Other than that, I think the fillings for the arepas are tasty. It is just that at the moment, I am not convinced that it is worth the trip. read more

Good food for a decent price, but first a word of warning. The times posted on yelp do not accurately represent the times that the place is open. As they open Friday and Saturday until 6 AM of the day after. Now that the times, are settled lets dive into the experience. This restaurant has a small parking lot outside so parking was not an issue for us. After you walk in the place is small, it has some tables outside, and a few others inside. But once we sat down, the server was very quick to offers us the menu and take our order. Most menu items are around $10, and each dish is a decent portion. As for the food itself, it is a good representation of Venezuelan food. Overall, I could recommend this place for someone wanting to have a late snack. read more

I mean is there even a better place to go have fried food after a night out? This is my TO GO, everything here is SO great. I always go for the Perros or the Burgers but more than anything the TEQUEÑOS! read more

Budare Bistro - Pepito Hot Dog - Venezuelan Near Me - Miami, Florida

This is a very small hole in he wall. The parking is a little tight when you first come here. The place is very welcoming and super chill to be in. The food is delicious. I love the fact that their mini empanada can be mix matched with different fillings. The arepas were filled to the brim with whichever topping you pick! Their natural juices were just like the ones I remember from home. They truly give Venezuelan cuisine a great name! read more

If you live in east Miami and don't feel like driving across the county to Doral to get your Venezuelan fix then look no further, Budare Bistro is the spot. The food is consistently delicious and outshines any other Venezuelan food establishment in the area. I highly recommend the cachaza, which is the best I have tried outside of Venezuela, any Arepa on the menu and the pabellón. This is the perfect place to eat after a long night of partying as it is open late. read more

The best thing about this place is that they are open super late specially on the weekends. The place is small but the service is normally fast and good. We really enjoy the arepas every time we visit, they are very well made and big. Also the fillings are good and the presentation is comparable to a true Venezuelan arepera. The tequeños are really tasty and we love the guava and cheese and Nutella versions. The waiters are super nice and always runing around the tables. The only thing that I can criticize is the seasoning of the rice and beans. I had the pabellon criollo the other day and the rice and beans were completely bland. The meat (carne mechada) though was very nice. The mandocas are also pretty good and a good way to start your meal. They have also specials and during the holidays they serve traditional Venezuelan plates. A place to come back to for sure. read more

This is probably gonna be my new favorite late night spot. Came in after hearing a few recommendations from some friends and I was blown away. We kept it simple and just had some arepas, burgers and a hot dog... but they were so good! They definitely put their own spin on even simple things, adding cheese, sauces or a surprise sunny side up egg on the burger. It's a casual place, their was a decent crowd but service was quick. I'll be coming back here!! read more

Very disappointed today while dining in at this place. I do not tend to do this but unfortunately the experience was not up to standards. The Food was over cooked, hamburger (meat patty) burned, and bread over toasted. We noticed kitchen staff was not wearing a face mask. We understand they were busy due to New Years, however very disorganized. Our food, a hamburger and a pepito took about 40 minutes. On the other hand, they had the courage to include gratuity. Not coming back. Management needs to step up. read more

4.5 stars. The empanadas are pretty good and they really stuff the arepas so you definitely get plenty of bang for your buck. The staff is really friendly. They do serve alcohol but choices are extremely limited (2 types of "beer" if you consider "Polar" and "Corona" beer) to their defense this is a Venezuelan place and Polar is a Venezuelan beer so there's that. Bottom line: come here for the empanadas and arepas, not for the beer. read more

Small restaurant with great service. The menu offers a variety of items that not only Venezuelan but other nationalities will enjoy. My fav item in any Venezuelan restaurant is "tequenos" or cheese finger, but a million times more delicious! Christmas is coming and they offer already the Traditional Christmas dish. Worth to stop by and have lunch/brunch or dinner. read more

Mediocre. After taking the order, our party of 10 waited over an hour to get our food. Arepas, pepitos & cachapas. Nothing crazy. Finally when the food arrived, fries were cold.. cachapa was cold. We told the server and he gave us attitude. We had to request for more water, there is no courtesy service, a side order of fries were never brought. Honestly... never going back. read more

I used to come here a lot but I hadn't for years. Now that I come back the food is lacking flavor and is too expensive for what it is. We had the cachapa, arepa Reina pepieda, and the mixed plate. I would only recommend the chicha the typical Venezuelan rice drink. read more

Super disappointed and my heart aches for this 2 stars but Come on ! The service Sucks here ! The people who work here aren't friendly, they look bored and talk rudely . It's not my first time it's my 4th time I come all the way from Texas and this time it was sad . But the food is great I wish they work on there employees. read more

I was recommended of this place by two Venezuelan friends. My boyfriend is Venezuelan and we were visiting Miami. So we went there to have my Venezuelan food experience. I really like the food. I had sample platter which is a good option for a first time visitor. I had the Reyna pepeada arepa. Love it. The service is good. They took a little while to give us our order read more

Budare Bistro - Sample platter. Best option for a first time trying Venezuelan food. - Venezuelan Near Me - Miami, Florida

Ive been to Budare numerous times food is delicious but when I went to pick up my order the tip was automatically included without realizing. I bet most people don't event notice and pay tip when picking up an order $6 for me going to pick up my food is ridiculous. So, if you go for pick up careful they trick you to pay tip. Great food aside from that. read more

The place was alright, nothing special and a bit over priced. The pabellón relleno was tasty. They have good flavor but again nothing to leave me wanting to go back. The sampler platter def over priced for what you get. Guess I will stick to the Venezuelan spots around my hood. read more

Expensive, bad service, The quality pf Items in the menu over the years consistently going down. Today I had a very bad service. Ruud, no manners. Two ladys today serving. The blond girl was really good. Ahe was nice and professional. The other one awful. The owner should know that. It was incredible rude, no manners at all and with attitude. Don't understand how this girl still work there.. read more

Very good. Very busy so you may end up sitting outside. Fair pricing. The deserts were good but a little pricey for the size and I sat without a refill on my drink for most of the time so 4 stars is the best I can give here. Wouldn't hesitate to return read more

My girlfriend and I like coming here when it's late and we want churros, since it's open really late and their churros are pretty good. They are a pretty small place so it gets full very easily. When we go after 10 there's always a good amount of people there so it's pretty popular. I had a burger the last time I went and it was huge (I would say too big there was no way you could eat it as a burger) I had to eat it with a knife and fork, and it was decent, not the best burger I have had. My girlfriend really likes their arepa reyenas. I would say to definitely leave room for those churros if you go though :) the service is pretty good but it's definitely easier if you know Spanish! read more

I came here a couple years ago and have been wanting to come back. They offer very good Venezuelan food at a decent price. The arepas are extremely tasty and come stuffed with various ingredients. I had the ones stuffed with cheese and I practically licked my fingers from how good they were. I also had the platter with steak, chorizo and chicken, which comes with a side of avocado. All the meats were cooked well and had great flavor. read more

So... ordered delivery. They got the order wrong. Called in very nicely to ask them to please correct their order and then ordered another 8 tequenos to atleast order something additional. They told me "we are sorry, we will send the order right away". 45 minutes later.... I was still waiting. Called again and the guy was rude... expected me to pickup the order and then decided to tell me "i guess well deliver it if the driver gets back here". Im happy to share my bad experience in yelp. Stay away... theur tequenos are good, but not that good. There are A TON of good Venezuelan restaurants in the area with good customer service. Dont waste your time... go to Doggies or Casabe just a few blocks away. read more
