The pizza was absolutely outstanding, with a perfectly crispy crust and incredibly fresh, high-quality ingredients. I ordered the Italian pizza, which was generously topped with freshly sliced prosciutto, shaved Parmesan, and fresh arugula. Every bite was delicious and full of flavor. The service was friendly, attentive, and welcoming, making the experience even better. Best of all, the prices were very reasonable--especially compared to many nearby tourist restaurants that charge a fortune for average food and drinks. If you're looking for authentic, delicious pizza at a fair price, this place is definitely worth a visit!

But I walked in and no one was inside but the workers bc most of the customers sat outside on their little patio but I opt to sit inside where it was nice and cool.

Then I was giving hot tea and baklava as a complimentary treat after my meal. For the price it was definitely worth it.

In my head, it was going to be enormous. A tower. A bucket of fries I couldn't finish. Something that justified the swing. What landed was good. Genuinely good. Homemade patty, proper crust, held together, didn't fight me. Fries were decent. Service was warm and dialed in, no complaints there. But it was a regular burger: regular size, regular plate. The price never crossed my mind until the check did. Ninety dollars for two of these and a Diet Coke. Farmed salmon. Sit with that for a second. The adventure turned into a receipt I had to read twice. And it's the same story across the menu. Everything's priced like it's special, and almost nothing is. The room is fine, the interiors are fine, and "fine" doesn't pay a ninety-dollar tab. The table wobbled throughout the whole meal, which, at these prices, stops being charming and starts feeling like an insult. Good food, bad math. Come if you're curious what a thirty-three-dollar salmon burger looks like. Know going in that it looks like a regular burger that happens to cost thirty-three dollars.

A Slice of Dominican New York... Right Here on Miami Beach…read more I've been coming to Ocean Deli since 2020, and I honestly can't believe it's taken me this long to write a review. Maybe because people from New York know one universal rule: when you find a great neighborhood spot, you keep your mouth shut. You don't want your hidden gem becoming the next place where people wait in line because somebody on social media "discovered" it. Ocean Deli is one of the last authentic neighborhood delis left on Miami Beach. In a city filled with luxury hotels, trendy brunch spots, and restaurants charging resort prices for breakfast, Ocean Deli quietly does what it's been doing all along--serving great food, quickly, and at prices that still make sense. This is where the people who actually keep Miami Beach running come to eat. Hotel employees, construction workers, delivery drivers, city workers, first responders, and the locals who somehow managed to survive Miami Beach's rising cost of living. If you want to know where the real locals eat, this is it. The owner is Dominican and from the Bronx, and that New York Dominican bodega culture is written all over this place--in the best possible way. Walk through the door and you'll swear you just landed in Washington Heights or the Bronx. Bachata and merengue are playing in the background. The smell of fresh café con leche fills the room. The grill is always working. Conversations bounce around the deli like you've walked into someone's neighborhood hangout instead of a business. The ladies behind the counter are unmistakably Dominican--friendly, hardworking, efficient, and they keep the line moving without ever losing that neighborhood feel. The sandwiches are outstanding. Fresh bread, generous portions, and made the way sandwiches are supposed to be made. No unnecessary gimmicks. No tiny portions with fancy names. The café con leche deserves its own mention. Strong, smooth, and exactly what coffee should taste like. If you've spent any time in New York's Dominican neighborhoods, you'll recognize it immediately. The Dominican breakfast and lunch plates are equally impressive. Simple, authentic, flavorful comfort food that fills you up instead of emptying your wallet. Speaking of wallets... Ocean Deli might be one of the best values left on Miami Beach. While restaurants a few blocks away are charging you like they flew the eggs in first class, Ocean Deli is quietly serving quality food at prices that remind you Miami Beach wasn't always built just for tourists. Just know what you're walking into......This isn't a sit-down restaurant. You walk in, place your order, take your receipt to the register and pay. Then you wait a few minutes while the grill works its magic. When they call your order, you grab your food and you're on your way. That's how it's done here. Fast, efficient, and without all the unnecessary fanfare. Ocean Deli isn't trying to sell you an "artisan culinary experience." It's selling great sandwiches, authentic Dominican food, excellent café con leche, fair prices, and a little piece of Dominican-York right here on Miami Beach. Some places sell an image....... Ocean Deli sells breakfast and lunch. After six years of coming here, I wouldn't have it any other way. Just do yourself one favor: when you find yourself surrounded by tourists paying resort prices for an average meal, remember there's still one place on Miami Beach where the locals go. Now You Know

As we walked by Safron, the smells and aroma with the lit up menu was what drove us right in.

We ordered the falafel plate to share and it was plenty. There's rice was absolutely delicious and the falafel were made on the spot served perfectly warm and crispy. Pro tip: ask for their house made hot sauce, it will rewire your brain. That was the perfect touch to our platter. Next time would LOVE to order the falafel wrap which comes with fries.
