    Country fried chicken , Coleslaw, potatoes
    Harry A.

    Great breakfast / brunch diner. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambience is old school and nostalgic.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] This specific location has been here for ever and is a staple in area. Service is great and the food is fire. I shad the country fried chicken with coleslaw and potatoes and corn bread. Super yummy. I tried a bowl of they're chili. Fire!!! Ice tea was good as well. I loved the gravy here, an absolute must. Glad I passed by for afternoon breakfast. Definitely recommend them for anyone wondering if chucks wagons is any good for breakfast or lunch. YES , they're phenomenal and if your in the area it's a no brainer. Thank you, I'll be back soon!

    Wagon Wheel breakfast platter!!

    My wife and I woke up early this past Sunday and were in a mood for a good breakfast and noticed several Chuck Wagon restaurants scattered across Miami. We passed by their Bird Road location and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the interior had the old fashioned diner vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The menu also included the classic staples you will find so we ordered their biscuits, the sautéed breakfast potatoes, and Wagon Wheel plate. The biscuits came out too toasty and really lacked any flavor. The Wagon Wheel was the main entree which included two sunny side eggs, sausage patties, Georgia sausage, and two pancakes. This dish was very large so my wife and I shared, it was also underwhelming. The only exception of the meal was the Georgia sausage which was tender and very flavorful. The potatoes were tasty but just the standard sides you find in other diners. The staff here were very friendly and you can tell that they have a loyal clientele.

    Coffee!

    The food and service are excellent! We're regulars here and we're never dissappointed. It's one of our favorites. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Quiet homely american breakfast done right![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Haven't eaten here in a while, the quality of the food is still good. Parking can be difficult at busy times. They are closed on Mondays. What is concerning is that the food portions are considerably smaller, doesn't even fill the plate it's served on. Hash browns, grits, ham steak, and even the pancakes are much smaller than they used to be. I'm having trouble understanding how a side of grits at an 8oz. Serving can be billed at $3.99 We are talking about grits, made of corn...Can buy an entire box for $2.00 at any grocery store in town. Settling my nerves was that the waitress was extremely polite and attentive.

    Had some time to kill and I needed lunch. On Bird Road did not want fast food or a chain. Stopped in at the Chuck Wagon since on a Saturday at 12:30 there was just one parking space open. The place was slammed. Menu and looked good and the prices seemed reasonable. I ordered breakfast and it was incredible. Large serving, eggs cooked just right and potatoes were delicious. Staff were great and professional. Can't wait to go back and try lunch. All in all a great place to go to again

    Veggie Omelette + Blueberry Oecan Pancake + Biscuits n' Gravy

    When you're looking for classic, stick to your ribs type breakfast, Chuck Wagon is the way to go! Although this location has been opened for less than 20 years, it feels like much longer. The type of place that never changes & "everybody knows your name & they're always glad you came". Stoped by recently for breakfast w my dad (it's one of his favourite spots) & we were VERY satisfied. I chose the Veggie Omelet w Home Fries & it was SO GOOD. Did a single Blueberry + Pecan Pancake on the side & my life was complete! My dad did the Biscuits + Gravy & loved it. Our waitress was sooooo lovely, kind & attentive & the whole homey, old school vibe was just perfect. Love this spot!

    Meatlovers Omelette !

    My favorite locally Family Owned Breakfast Spot on Bird Road !! Today I had a early breakfast before starting my day . And boy .. they never disappoint !! My go to order is always the Meatlovers omelette with grits and Rye bread !!

    Wagon wheel with Apple cinnamon pancakes
    Aisha C.

    I love this restaurant. Perfect place for some wholesome, home style breakfast. If you ever need to not feel lonely come here. The staff is super welcoming, and does not constantly shower you with "do you need anything??", which makes breakfast here extra peaceful. The only thing is you have to get here before they close around 2:30 pm; oh how I wish they were opened past that time I got the tuna melt, and let me just say hands down the best melt I've tasted so far in south Florida. And I've only had a few so don't take that so seriously... but the tuna melt here is so delicious. Order it. It came with fries- I devoured those, and potato salad (or coleslaw). My boyfriend got the Apple cinnamon pancakes, he loved them! Overall this is a 5/5, you get what you come for at this location, nothing more nothing less. I would recommend.

    Tuna sandwich
    Sofia G.

    This place deserves more than 5 stars. The staff are incredible: personable, welcoming, and humorous! They were super attentive and refilled our coffee quickly when it was running low. The food came out fast, was delish, and great price... wow... We ordered the tuna sandwich which as you can see was super generous and it came with choice of side - we got potato salad which was incredible and flavorful! Just perfect. We also ordered the chuck wagon grand slam...yum! Potatoes were fresh and delish, sausage and eggs were good too. I've had better biscuits and gravy but combined with the rest of the plate the whole dish was really tasty. We are blown away. The place doesn't look like much from the outside but it's amazing! Don't judge a book by its cover. We will definitely be back! And we will bring our friends and family too :)

    Raw onions

    I ordered breakfast to go and they totally screwed it up. I got the chuck wagon special with grilled onions and bacon crumpled on top. I went to the A.D.Barnes park nearby to sit at a picnic table and enjoy my breakfast. I open the bag and there was no fork! I had to bum off a fork from a family that was having a picnic. Then I open the box and find raw onion instead of sauteed. To top it off they charged me $3 for a side of bacon that was no more than 2 strips crumpled on top the meal.

    The chicken and waffles.

We tried the chilled pink shrimp, Berkshire pork collar and the Golden Chicken. All were very tasty & flavorful, with the perfect combination of sweet and savory. The Arroz con leche dessert was amazing! Our friends had the grouper appetizer and loved it. That said, not sure why the chicken at $60 was almost twice as much as the pork! The rice that came with the chicken was dry and tasteless, so I didn't eat that... And, the $24 glass of wine, with a very small pour, was disappointing. If they get rid of the sommelier, I might return for the food!

So, let's get into it: I don't know about you, but the one thing I do not enjoy doing is driving and circling around, being lost, just to find an establishment. So, I love that this restaurant is so easy to find with good signage, lots of nearby parking, both street and lots. Anywho, once I parked, the manager Judd was so friendly and kind and directed me to the table where my friend was seated. He overheard that I was kind of speaking loud over the music when I barely had a voice due to losing it from another event, so he kindly turned down the music for us. Once there, service was quick and attentive. I got a Fresh Paloma for my drink and the Seared Salmon for dinner. The drink was a good size and tasted good, no complaints there. As for the dinner, WOW. This was delicious, I would get this again. The flavors were there and the portions were just perfect (not too much and not too little, I usually never get enough or leave with leftovers). Also, not overpriced for Miami in my opinion. Aside from that, I did try some of my friend's off-menu pasta and it was really yummy. Furthermore, they have great weekly specials: (Note, subject to change. Please check Instagram or call for Current Week): Tuesday: Burgers and Bottles, $10 Burgers and Half off Select Bottles of Wine Wednesday: Double Loyalty Points and Fire, Flour & Fizz ($12 Pizzas, $12 Aperol Spritz, $7 Prosecco, 5pm-close) Thursday Ladies Night: Complimentary Bubbly for Ladies 4pm-7pm Sunday: 10am-4pm Bloody Mary Bar Go check it out, I don't think you'll regret it.

First entree came out in 10 minutes. 5-10 minutes later the second entree came (it was toasted bagels with their accompaniments on a tower... so like the easiest item ever). After waiting about 50 minutes total our final entree arrived... a breakfast pizza. So I guess don't go here if you intend to eat together? Or want hot food. No communication except at the 30 minute mark of waiting a random person came to tell us that the pizza was working. Our server abandoned us, so we never got a second round while waiting almost an hour for our food. She apparently was too busy taking the second table to walk in. No one apologized for the wait on food. None of what we ordered tasted good. I guess with cold food that's hard to judge though. My avocado toast had a full field of micro greens that covered up any other flavor it might have had. I'm sure the crowd of middle aged dinners appreciated the DJ though. Cuz this is Miami and that's how things are done. Slow, inconsiderate, and loud.

From the moment we sat down, the guy looked annoyed that we were there. Zero greeting, zero eye contact.

I asked for a classic Old Fashioned and he brought me something that tasted like watered-down whiskey with too much bitters and a random orange slice thrown in. My friend's whiskey sour was unbalanced -- definitely not worth the $18 price tag. I politely mentioned to recommend us another drinks options he just shrugged and said "we don't have that" Not offer another choice or an apology. The drinks were mediocre at best, but his attitude made it worse. He ignored us most of the night and acted annoyed every time we ordered. Zero professionalism. The place has a great vibe but with service like this, is not worth to spend almost $200 dollars there for few drinks. I don't remember his name but he was tall, Latin and maybe from Colombia.

Other than that, we enjoyed the food very much. The boba tea was also so good! They have a good variety of flavors to choose from, my cousins got a rainbow one and it looked so appealing to the eye. I had the green tea lemonade and added boba, it was very refreshing.
