    The Frankie
    Michelle A.

    Stopped by Frankie Wally's and ordered The Frankie. The sandwich was packed with flavor, with a great combination of meats, cheese, and toppings on fresh bread. Pricey for a sandwich but the portion was generous. The service was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was casual and welcoming. Great food and I definitely will be coming back.

    The Wally's and the BLT to-go.

    This is a beautiful little sandwich shop that's becoming a must-go-to spot in The Gables. It's just off of Ponce de Leon, not too far from a few other great eateries. As soon as you enter, there are great staff members greeting you and giving you instructions for the best experience. I appreciated the information and the smiles. You place your order half-way into the interior at the register. I took some pictures of the menu because there's no overhead board or poster with the menu. So far, I've tried The Wally's, the BLT, and the Carrot Cake. I posted some pictures of each one. The Wally's is a terrific turkey sandwich with great crusty bread. One thing to consider if whether or not you have the teeth necessary to penetrate the crunchy bread. You get your choice of plain or sesame bread--the sesame is the one! The BLT might not be what you expected. This bacon isn't the thin and crispy kind that you might be expecting. Instead, it's more of a steakhouse, thick cut bacon with plenty of flavor, but no crunch. In fact, the flavorful fat is only great if you don't mind soft bacon steaks. The spread is very special in the BLT. It's a spicy and flavorful creamy dressing. The bread is also grilled, which is something to consider if you're getting it to go. It will steam and not retain the crunch that they were going for when they prepared it. It's still a good sandwich, just know what you're getting into. The carrot cake is good, but nowhere near being worth the price. It's also on the sweeter side. I'd only recommend it to those with an overly sweet tooth.

    Frankie and Wally's lives up to the hype! The sandwiches were huge and big enough to share. They have a large selection of chip bags to choose from. And the atmosphere is so pleasant and welcoming with lots of outdoor seating. Definitely want to come back to explore the market items that they have. I do wish they were open more than 4 days a week because I do always have to check back on their hours before deciding to go.

    The Pauchi
    Luis F.

    Went for breakfast today and realized I got there too late... or so I thought. Turns out I got there at the perfect time for their super limited Pauchi sandwich. I had no idea they were making it today, but I ended up being the first customer to grab one. Let me tell you, it did not disappoint. The seasoning was incredible, and the way the breading clung to that cutlet was next level. You can tell this was homemade because getting a crust that crispy and light isn't something you just throw together. I know these won't last long, so sorry to everyone who misses out... because you're seriously missing an amazing sandwich. On top of the food, I just love the vibes. Kathy, Wally, and the whole crew always make you feel welcome. Great people, great atmosphere, and amazing food every time.

    Chopped Cheese
    Sofi D.

    Frankie and Wally's is the perfect example of how to balance character and incredible quality. From the second you step up to the entrance the place feels like you're stepping into another Miami dimension, one where you'll find some of the most unique snack finds and most delicious sandwiches in town. The small market area and ordering experience are so enjoyable and every staff member I have interacted with has been incredibly thoughtful and kind. I've also had the chance to meet both Frankie & Wally and getting to see them behind the kitchen and sharing the story and passion with every customer is a truly special experience. Now the food, the wally & the chopped cheese are my absolute favorites. Although they are on the pricier side for sandwiches, their size makes up for it and every time I have gone I have been able to share one with my partner. I have tried both the sesame and white breads and for some reason the white's texture was better imo. But they both were delicious nonetheless. Try to visit during weekdays for a calmer experience since it can get crowded super quickly and also often sell out of the crowd faves by the afternoon.

    Amazing sandwiches. You can immediately tell the quality of the ingredients is top notch. A little pricey for a sandwich, but well worth it when you're craving something special. The chocolate chip cookies are a must and tend to sell out quickly. I'm already looking forward to coming back to try their famous lasagna. The space itself has a warm, welcoming, at-home feel. It's become one of my go to spots, and I'll definitely keep coming back.

    Tuna and turkey sandwhich
    Romina J.

    Idk I really wanted to love this place and maybe will try it again because out of all the sandwiches they had, only about two were available. Speaking only on the sandwiches I did choose I felt they were overpriced, as were very similar in flavor to Jersey Mikes, which I love. The flavor itself was good! Really good! But again overpriced, prices seem excessive but it is in coral gables... tried a strawberry matcha with tonic or soda water i think and it was gross, but thats on me I completely didn't realize what I was getting myself into. The service was great and was able to exchange for an iced coffee (which was okay, nothing crazy). If you would love a great coffee with a great sandwich, I would suggest you just get the sandwich here then go somewhere else for coffee. The staff are very nice though! So since I didnt get to try the ones I wanted, I will come back but only if already in the area.

    Bacon egg and cheese - served until 10:30
    Diandra L.

    Wow wow wow. I have been dying to try Frankie and Wally's and I loved it so much when I popped in for the first time that I went two days in a row. It's that good. First of all - I love the team member who welcomes you when you walk in - OG - he is so funny and friendly! This is a curated grocery shop and also sandwich spot which is beautifully decorated and super welcoming. When you order, there are two lines - one for coffee /tea and food and one for just food. I hit up the coffee line both days because a girl needs caffeine. I love my oat milk lattes. On my first visit I got the bacon egg and cheese - divine! The most buttery pressed croissant and perfect balance of sweet and savory with the tomato jam and crispy bacon. The next day, I opted for Il Padrino - their version of an Italian. Damn. This was massive and great. So I am going to talk about the price - this sandwich was not cheap, it was $25. However - it is huge, and you can definitely split it so in girl math that's $12.50 - a win in my book. I ate some there and had the rest as my second meal later. Also - one of the things you can tell about these sandwiches are that the quality of the ingredients in them are superior to your regular deli sub. You truly do get what you pay for, and at Franky and Wally's you are getting a wonderful sandwich and supporting a local business. There is seating indoors and a beautiful patio outside. Can't wait to go back!

    The "Wally" turkey sandwich
    Al A.

    I've been wanting to go but just life always gets in the way !!! Today was the day arrived a bit early 1130am and was luckily able to get a table inside !!! Run don't walk here if you truly enjoy a good fresh sandwich. The price is a bit high for a sandwich but you get what you pay for !!! High quality meats, fresh veggies on the sandwich and great service .... I can't believe I haven't gone before .. Oh and don't leave without the chocolate chip cookie !! We got the turkey sandwich and their version of a Philly cheese !!! I'll be back - just keep in mind only open wed - sat

    This place is so beautiful! It's like a retro diner meets European market! I like how there is 2 separate registers for coffee and food, and all the cute groceries you can shop for. I ended up picking out sourdough rotini to try at home. For coffee i had a regular iced latte with oat milk. The quality of the latte was very good. The tuna sandwich is okay. The bread is tasty and fresh, but the tuna tastes pretty fishy. It needs more mayo and more seasoning. You absolutely need to try their chocolate chip cookie! It has so much chocolate and the sea salt is a great touch, too. I ate outside in their little courtyard area. So nice. Make sure to keep your doorman, he was so friendly :)

    Star Anise Cinnamon Latte
    Holmes B.

    I had been wanting to try these sandwiches for a long time and apparently you have to get there early because I couldn't even try the chopped cheese or the strami which are two of the most popular ones. Out of the four options left I opted for the "Oh Honey" with turkey, bacon, cheddar cheese, arugula, tomato, mayo, honey mustard, salt, pepper and olive oil. It wasn't what I went there for but still a solid delicious sandwich. They're not skimping on portions at all. The honey mustard it's the cherry on top. Washed it down with one of the best iced lattes I've had in a while...Star Anise cinnamon latte. Service is also top notch and place is kinda cute, not gonna lie. I will most definitely be coming back for the chopped cheese and strami.

    Yvette K.

    Went back again....yes that good! I don't normally eat bread but I found myself craving another one of these subs...yummy! I didn't mention this previously but the ingredients are super fresh (shaved paper thin) which is super important for the texture. The lettuce is also shaved, so so good I can't recommend it enough. Nice and cold too, with its warm chewy roll Stay strong you guys! This place will be a huge success

    The Wally
    Christina O.

    If you're planning on going on a weekend, get here early or plan on waiting in a line. It moves quickly, but just like every other Miami hot spot, it will be packed. Staff is friendly and eager to help. The ambiance feels like you're at a family owned deli that sells niche items. It gives upscale bodega. The sandwiches are massive!! But they are so refreshing and packed with flavor. The ventanita coffee with guayaba cold foam was unique, but not sure I'd spend $10 on it again. This place is great if you have time to spare! I don't recommend coming in large groups.

    I was really looking forward to trying Jholano's in the Gables, after seeing many positive reviews,…read morebut unfortunately our experience didn't live up to them. The space itself was small but clean. When my husband and I walked in, there were no other customers. The young lady behind the register was looking down at her phone and didn't greet/acknowledge us when we came in. Even once we were standing in front of the register, my husband said hello first, she looked up but still didn't greet us, just slightly grinned and waited for us to start ordering. When we did order we had to repeat ourselves three times because nothing was being written or entered as we ordered. I thought maybe she was new or this was one of her first jobs, but the whole interaction felt very disconnected. I ordered one of the egg sandwiches. The bread was fresh and had a slight sweetness that I actually liked, but overall it was not anything I'd order again. My husband ordered the 6PM in Tuscany, which was around $26. Unfortunately, his sandwich was missing several of the listed ingredients. We hadn't requested any modifications, so after tasting it, we actually checked the menu again because something seemed off. The chicken cutlet had no crunch, the sandwich was bland, and was just missing so much he didn't even finish it. I really wanted to love this place because of all the great reviews I had seen. Maybe we caught the Coral Gables location on an off day, but between the service and the food not matching what was listed on the menu, this visit was unfortunately a disappointment. I genuinely wish Jholano's well, but based on the experience we had a couple of Sundays ago, I wont be rushing back.

I ordered them turkey, ham, and (thanks to you a last-minute decision) tuna sandwiches. And surprisingly, the tuna was the STAR, even among the meat eaters! They said everything was delicious, but several commented that the tuna was some of the best they've ever had. And when it came to the sides, the potato salad and coleslaw were officially TIED. They loved them both! Between the incredible food and exceptional service, Bagel Emporium deserves an A+ and a 12/10!

Sure, you could do a bit of grocery shopping, but…read morelet's be honest, you're here to hunt down oddball snacks and niche sundries you didn't know you needed. Open since the '70s, these Pinecrest pioneers launched their Central European mini‑market as a side hustle, all while earning their keep as classical musicians. That kind of multitasking deserves a drink. Start smart with a refreshment like Almdudler. The closest American parallel is a love child of Dr. Pepper and Sprite, but that sells it short. This Austrian classic is a bit herbal thanks to elderflower and sage, yet snaps with lemon zest, and happily moonlights as a mixer for beer, wine, vodka, and even cold brew. Honorable mentions go to Apfelschorle (apple juice spritz) and the pride of Salzburg's suds, Stiegl blond lager. Whether you believe the lozenge or the tea came first, Ricola Schweizer Kräutertee, an instant herb tea, will knock a cold flat on its back. In my home, it completes an anti‑illness trinity alongside Advil and Vicks VapoRub. Mainzer's also stocks a tight but thoughtful lineup of German personal‑care creams and cosmetics, because sometimes your sinuses and skin are on red alert. The deli slings cold sandwiches stacked with Schinken (ham) or Gelbwurst, a pork‑and‑veal bologna seasoned with ginger, nutmeg, and white pepper that can be customized with lettuce, tomato, onion, mayo, or mustard. Hot subs come piled onto rolls with sauerkraut and mustard. The Brat and Weisswurst lead the sales, but the Double-Smoked BLT remains a point of almost defiant pride for the Mainzer clan. I could keep waxing poetic about all the shelf treasures, but this women‑owned piece of Pinecrest history demands boots on the ground. Dive into the unusually deep selection of chocolates and marzipan, debate the finest ketchup for a currywurst, and boldly snack where few South Floridians have snacked before.

    Hello everybody and hard to believe that I have been coming to this traditional Jewish Deli for…read moreyears now and never written a review but here goes as I can tell you that they really deserve it. Lots of Lox Deli in my opinion is a jewel located in the South Dade area of Miami, nestled in the Pinecrest / Palmetto Bay area. Truth be told there are not many traditional Jewish deli's left in South Dade so we are very lucky to have them. This is a family owned business that has been turning out great New York style sandwiches and deli items for many years. You all know how much I love local businesses and we really need to support great local businesses as much as possible. One particular item they have on the menu which is not found in many places is their deli style Tongue Sandwich. Yes I know it sounds weird but it is absolutely delicious and very hard to find. Most of their food items such as their soups and slaws are for the most part home made on premises which means they are always fresh. The service and atmosphere as you can imagine is true to form, a little noisy with everyone talking and enjoying their food and the servers really do a great job of getting things going for you as quickly as possible. On this occasion, I ordered the vegetable soup and the hot pastrami sandwich, piled high with awesome pastrami. As expected, it was excellent and very fresh. Outside of the menu, make sure to checkout the specials on the white board on the main wall, as they always have some items that are not on the menu on that board. Parking should not be a problem as they are located in a strip mall on US1 and their tends to be plenty available; however, they do get busy on weekends and lunch time so plan accordingly. Overall, Lots of Lox really does an amazing job and I if you like traditional deli style food I am sure you will too. Wishing you all a great deli experience! Enjoy and Bon Appétit mes amis!
