I had been wanting to try this cafe and realized I was nearby one day and would give it a try. I…read morehave mixed thoughts, so I'll start with the best thing. The food was actually amazing, especially for a casual cafe environment. I had the loaded avocado toast which came with two slices toast with creamy avocado spread across it, cherry tomatoes, a sprinkle of feta cheese, a balsamic vinegar sauce. For my daughter I ordered the waffles with berries. This was slightly smaller than I expected but delicious. So sugary and flavorful. And I had a honey cinnamon latte which I also felt was full of flavor and had lots of cinnamon (I've had this in other places where I felt the flavor and cinnamon were lacking). That being said, it took 24 minutes to get our food which I think is a bit excessive for this environment. There was only one girl working when we were there and lots of people. Also, the bill for all that (plus an apple juice) was $53 and change including tip! (I paid that same amount recently at a cute sit down restaurant where the meal was big enough to have plenty of leftovers). The ambiance had a clean, minimalist aesthetic with pretty decor pieces. It was very quiet too... about halfway through my visit, they turned on some music, but it was still a quiet, calm environment with the music. I prefer a busier, fun type of vibe, but for those who are looking for something very serene and calm this would be an ideal place to relax or get some work done as long as you're willing to wait for your food!

There was of plenty of seating inside either at a table, couch coffee table or even a barstool along the wall.

My friend and I stopped here while on vacation in Miami. He had never been to First Watch before,…read moreso I felt it was my responsibility to introduce him properly. When we arrived, the place was packed. We added our names to the waitlist and ended up waiting a little over 30 minutes. Thankfully, the process was easy and they texted us when our table was ready. There was also plenty of parking available in the large shopping center lot. Once seated, we were taken to a table in the back near the windows, which was a nice touch. The restaurant felt very spacious. I never felt crowded or like I was sitting on top of other guests. The dining room was bright, clean, and had the welcoming atmosphere that First Watch is known for. The service was excellent from start to finish. Unfortunately, I did not catch anyone's name, but every employee we interacted with was friendly, attentive, and professional. For breakfast, I ordered The Traditional with scrambled eggs and cheese, smoked ham, whole grain artisan toast, and I substituted the seasoned potatoes for cheesy grits. I also ordered an orange juice. Everything was good. The eggs were cooked well, the grits were creamy, and the orange juice was fresh and refreshing. My only small complaint is that I could have used another piece of smoked ham or a slightly larger portion. My friend ordered the Tri Fecta with an extra egg and bacon, along with the Morning Meditation juice, which combines orange, lemon, turmeric, organic ginger, agave nectar, and beet. He enjoyed everything and had no complaints. Overall, that pretty much sums up the meal. Nothing was bad and everything was prepared well. At the same time, neither of us walked away completely blown away. It was simply a solid breakfast experience with good food, excellent service, and reasonable prices. I would absolutely come back to this location and to First Watch in general. It is a dependable brunch spot that consistently delivers a good experience.

My experience was disappointing due to the way I was treated by Rolando. His attitude came across…read moreas dismissive and unhelpful, making it difficult to get clear answers. The lack of professionalism left a negative impression. Was so hesitant to help with anything wanting me to order a traditional and not want to just up charge for the meal I am getting. I come here almost every day & if not every time my order is wrong or missing something. Ridiculous. I would like to recognize Phil, however, for always providing outstanding service. He is courteous, attentive, and handles situations professionally. Employees like Phil make a positive difference in the customer experience. Even has offered compensation for their mistakes. Mistakes happen and no one is perfect, but at least he takes the time to correct Correct them and make his customers leave with a great experience

The Brewing Buddha Wine Bar is exactly what Pinecrest needed. What an awesome laidback wine bar to…read morechill with friends or even a romantic date night. The decor is pretty awesome, I'll include some pics that I snapped. The wine and apps were delicious . The Charcuterie board is surprisingly large, not the tiny boards you see in other restaurants.

Thank you for opening this wine bar Pinecrest was long overdue for a venue like this

Went to Galipan Bake House in Kendall on my second stop while on a mission to find a good cachito…read more The place is simple but pleasant, with both indoor and outdoor seating. The staff was friendly and polite. I ordered the ham and cheese cachito, and oh my goodness... it instantly took me back to the ones I used to eat as a kid in school in Venezuela. The size was perfect, the flavor was spot on, and even though it was a little greasy, it was absolutely delicious. The atmosphere is nothing fancy, just a normal bakery vibe, but I didn't care. The cachito was that good. I didn't try anything else, so I can't speak for the rest of the menu, but for the cachitos alone, I'd happily drive from Miami Lakes all the way to Kendall again. Solid 9.8/10. If you're looking for an authentic Venezuelan cachito experience, this is the place. Highly recommend!
