I was very disappointed with my experience. The staff was rude and unwelcoming, and the food was poor. The empanadas were only warm on the outside but cold in the center when I bit into them, and they had virtually no flavor. Unfortunately, I would not return or recommend this café based on this visit. read more

Very clean and great food. Very fast service and very fresh items that you can actually choose from.

I had taken my daughter to opthomologist in building, and due to a 3.5 hour wait, we had no choice but to grab lunch here (cafeteria in same building), as it was almost 2 pm and going to grab car and finding a place to eat would have taken at least another 20 mins. I purchased a platter from chicken grill (or kitchen) forget which one it was, and the food (as per my husband) was gross. Chicken was chewy and dark meat. The beans tasteless, and the rice hard. He was so hungry, that ended up eating it, but at $8, I really felt for him. I ordered a salad which looked like the "safest" thing to order...I mean... How do you mess up a salad bar, well these peoe did. The chunks of onion were huge, the added a huge amount of blu cheese which ruined the whole salad. Despite it being a salad bar, they serve it for you, and the price is unbelievable, they charge PER topping, and extra for protein. Total rip off, specially since they even know how to make items proportionate, so that they go well once placed in salad together. Also ordered a potato soup. So nasty! It tasted like fish, why? beats me! Aside from the above, we also got a wrap (figured my husband could eat half, and my daughter the other half). The woman working this section was not very polite, and she kept shouting at another employee about this or that. My husband and daughter did not as much as touch the wrap, it contained the same crappy dark meat chicken, hard rice, and ingredients from the other section of the chicken grill (or kitchen). While this place sucked, it also closed mid day (right after I ordered), due to running out of things to cook. People are still coming in for lunch (hospital is next door) how do they not plan ahead? I know because I overheard the staff saying "out of food". As posted below (pics), the floors were disgusting, and the cafeteria uncared for. I will NEVER return there. $22 down the drain, ended up having to find a restaurant. read more

Cafe 20/20 - Disgusting floors - Cafes Near Me - Miami, Florida

This was my favorite place to eat on campus. It is cheap fast and healthy. Average chicken plus average ingredient plus amazing sauces made an overall fantastic experience. This place really embodied the idea of the whole being greater then the sum of the parts. Unfortunately they are taking it away and replacing it with some hipster cafe that probably costs more and gives less food. This review is probably pointless, so I'm going to just take the time to thank all the food service workers who made my chicken bowl to perfection every time. Yellow rice Black beans (with the random leaf) Bourbon chicken Lettuce Corn Pico de Gallo Curry mustard sauce. 5.34 Really going to miss this place, and I know all the medical students will as well. Here's to 20/20 the place that fed me every lunchtime for the last two years. Now I have to pay more for pollo tropical. read more

This is a super convenient and reasonably priced cafe located just outside of the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute at UM/Jackson Memorial Hospital. They have a Chicken Grill and Sushi Maki located inside and also offer a good variety of breakfast items in the morning and then switch to soup, salads, and sandwich's in the afternoon. The place is always hopping with medical students and doctors as well as hospital visitors from the surrounding area. Conveniently, discounts are given to UM employees and students. The food is always fresh and the service is always speedy yet friendly. The seating area outside is huge, so there is always room even with the heavy traffic. All in all the place is a great alternative if you work in the area and are tired of the fastfood and cafeteria fare typically offered near hospitals. read more

Cafe 20/20 - Entrance - Cafes Near Me - Miami, Florida

$5 bowl of food is fast, tasty, and super filling. Up to you to make it healthy or not by what you add (cheese, guac, sour cream, corn, tomatoes, beans, lettuce etc). I'm a fan of the chipotle sauce! They definitely load on the sodium, though. Always thirsty and sleepy after I get this. But it's a great value for the portions and taste of the food. read more

Quick place to grab lunch when you are on the medical campus at UM. My two favorite items include the chicken quesadilla and the chicken, rice, and beans bowl. If you are an employee at JMH, you can get the bowl for $5 (with a soft drink included), which is awesome. They also have a deli and offer Cuban coffee as part of the cafe. The prices are reasonable, and the space is clean with plenty of seating. read more

This is a great spot for patients, employees or anyone visiting the UM medical campus. The service area is a bit small and can get very busy during the lunch hour rush but the employees are always nice and helpful, especially to patients or people who are in need of extra assistance. read more

I come here all the time to get their rice and chicken bowl. For UM employees it's only $4.99 for the bowl and a drink! The bowl is plenty of food in fact I usually have a bit left. The last couple of times they did not have the curry mustard sauce, but instead they had a cilantro garlic sauce which is still great. The line goes quickly and it fills my stomach without hurting my wallet. read more

for those of us that work on the jackson/um medical campus, this place is a little treasure. you get an employee discount (as long as you have your id), and the food is actually pretty tasty. you have your choice of a rice bowl (i always get yellow rice, black beans, bourbon chicken, corn and guacamole... oh YUM)... don't like that?? they've got freshly made sandwiches, or pre-made salads and wraps.... my favorite thing has to be the giant cookies... so good. overall, it's a fine place for lunch if you're stuck at bascom palmer for hours waiting for your abuela, or if you work nearby... moderately priced... i can usually get lunch for $7 dollars or so... read more

My son and I have visited Bascom Palmer more than once, and they are indeed the top of their field. However, I have some gripes about their "20/20" cafeteria. My son and I last visited on Monday, Sept 9th, 2013. We are from out of town and arrived early at about 10:40am for a noon appointment. We decided to kill some time by having lunch at the on-site 20/20 cafeteria. There are basically three separate areas of this cafeteria; seating, which consists of three tables with 4 chairs each, an area to pick up a hot lunch, and a metal roll-up window near the seating area which serves hot food a bit similar to Taco Bell. This was one of the most terrible lunches my son and I have experienced due to the following problems: 1. All three tables in the seating area were quite dirty with food crumbs and other food stuff on the table tops. Some of the seats also had food bits on them. The floor in this area was no better; food and food wrappings were scattered around. 2. The burgers served were similar to those you would find in a coin machine. The attendent simply pulled the pre-prepared burger (burger on the bun) out from under the display case glass and popped it into a microwave for a short time. It was awful. 3. While we were eating, Bascom Palmer employees, as well as patients, started lining up at the metal roll-up window at about 10:55 for the posted 11am opening time. 11am came and went, and when the operator finally opened the window at 11:30, many of the potential customers became irritated and departed. Some of those BP employees who had waited were trying to grab a bite to take back to their office for lunch...not sure if they ended up missing lunch that day or not. 4. During the entire course of our meal, cafeterial employees continually marched back and forth, less than two feet from where we were eating, carrying boxes, stacking them near our tables, and generally ruining lunch for everybody. 5. One of the male cafeteria employees spent a considerable time leaning on his elbow very close to the female cashier joking and having a great time. This was quite a distraction to the cashier, as well as to those customers trying to get through the line to pay for their order. This lunch facility is in dire need of a good management shakeup. It is one of the worst cafeterias I have seen in many years. Bascom Palmer should insist that it be held to the same high standards as Bascom Palmer holds itself. read more

20 20 is conveniently located just outside of the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute (hence the name 20 20). It is a great place for a quick and healthy lunch. The food is tasty and the employees are very friendly. Most people come for the rice, beans, and chicken bowl but quesadillas, sandwiches, and salads are also available. read more
