I live close by and come here all of the time and for some reason I've noticed that the croquetas, if you go early in the morning, taste old as if they left the ones out from the day before. I'm not worried about the safety to eat them, but they just taste bad. Additionally, even if you go at 5AM, it still takes a pretty long time to get helped and then get your food given that it is a "quick" place. read more

Watch what you pay for. One of the cashiers likes to charge more than advertised. Had to argue to get a fair price. They claim the menu price is wrong then they play the language barrier game. Not returning to this location. read more

Came after 9 pm tonight (Saturday, 11/29/25) and it was busy. I wasn't third in line but my order was taken quickly. I ordered 7 guava & cheese pastelitos, 3 ham croquettas and 2 cortaditos. My husband enjoyed the pastelitos and the croquettas. The lady who took my order was going non stop but there were several other ladies just standing around while several customers were waiting. It took almost 30 minutes for me to get my order. 5 stars for the food and my lady but they need to be more efficient. read more

Personally I get overwhelmed coming the parking is horrible and it's always full here. I loved the orange juice. My husband order breakfast and he got random curly fries. Personally I come for the queso pastilito. I don't like the guava one they do I prefer the cheese one. I loved the orange juice it's freshly squeezed but overall it's ok. read more

I go to this bakery for lunch or coffee after lunch several times a week. It's perhaps nothing special but the service is really great. The coffee is always good and the cuban sandwich is good for the price. Cuban bakeries provide great value in general. If you don't mind a heavy dessert try the cheesecake with flan. read more

Typical, Miami Cuban breakfast cafe with all the pastries, Cuban coffees and small sandwiches. Food was great , coffee was on point ( super hot) and service was super quick. Place is a little small especially given the number of people coming in and out , could use a few more tables and maybe dedicated lines/ropes to keep customers organized. Overall a great and authentic Miami Cuban cafe experience read more

This place used to be great. Always clean, friendly staff. Delicious food with large portions. I don't know if they changed administration in the last three months but every single time I've been there lately the tables have been dirty and I have had to wait a long time for my order to come through. Last time all the costumers that came after me were served before me. Food portions are definitely smaller now as well. Maybe they just need to retrain their staff? I won't be coming back for another few months because it's just not worth it, there are other faster options around. read more

Food is good, but the staff all seem like they hate their job. They could care less if you live or die

#1 ive been a regular here for a whole year. Ordering the same things on rotation. I have to rush to school at 5 am and I always get a ham and cheese toast... Always put that I AM ALLERGIC to mayonnaiseand butter. Every SINGLE time i get a different order. The ladies at this store already know me, AND my order. When I get there mind you it takes me 30 minutes just to get to them and I always order when leaving my house, I still have to wait for my food to be made. I dont have time to take my time and check for any errors because AS A FOOD PLACE its up to their employees to make sure they aren't poisoning their customers. Every single time I order they mess up my order. Adding pickes, mayonnaise or butter. I work at school from 6am to 6pm and this is my only time to grab a breakfast. When they mess up they literally leave me without eating breakfast and my money spent. When i called the manager only apologized. I demand atleast my money back for this epic mess up. I am tired of this extremely terrible service. Never EVER coming back here. These two pictures show how they didnt even put cheese on one.. read more

Went there excited to try Cuban pastries. Instead I was treated with racist employees. One literally refused to answer me when I tried to order. She just blankly stared at me without a word. I was baffled and thought even if she doesn't speak English the list she could have done was speak in Spanish to acknowledge me. Another employee came and assisted. I thought maybe it was her personality and was quickly proved wrong when she greeted another customer that looked like her. Teach your employees to treat every customer with care or the very list to do their job without degrading another human being. read more

Went to eat lunch here with friends for the first time. Went to order at the counter where the woman taking the order did not speak English. That wasn't a problem but she seemed annoyed as we tried to order in the limited spanish we know. After ordering, she handed us a credit card device and the first thing that popped up was thr huge tip screen. We tipped well but in the end, there was zero service effort. There was only one table inside that would seat 4 and there was a single man sitting there already. We picked a table outside (only 2 person tables) and pulled up a couple extra chairs. 7 or 8 minutes later a female employee walked outside and basically scolded us saying they were trying to call our number inside that the order was ready. We walked in and got our order from the counter from the same female we ordered from. No thank you or have a good day. Just a blank stare. The food was a bit above your average Cuban restaurant in Miami. The service was horrible read more

I had not realized I had come here so often that when I ordered my sandwich and the girl in the counter asked if it was possible to another employee they smiled and said that's how I always order it With that said, i love a place where they know you and make you feel like home. Everyone greets you as you enter and the line moves fast. Busiest time I've seen is the morning as everyone is getting their cafecito. The coffee is great and will keep you going. Their sandwich portions are sizeable so definitely shareable if you just want a normal size meal. Keep in mind that if you're ordering actual food, it is not instant but worth it. The little pastries, cakes etc are delicious, so if anything grab an appetizer . I've been to other branches but this is by far my fave. read more

Super! Stopped in while in the south Dadeland area. Got a cafe con leche and a señorita and a coconut and cheese pastry. All were great coffee was hot and the selection of pastries and treats was extensive. The employees were super cordial and helpful and the bakery was clean and family oriented. I would recommend this bakery when in the area. read more

We stopped at one of my favorite spots in Miami!!!!!! If you want authentic pastelitos this is the place you need to go. They have several spots in the city for convenience. The staff was nice and helpful Now on to the good stuff! We ordered a combination of treats guava & cream cheese pastry, cheese pastry (long one like a taqueno) potato ball and some ham croquettes. They were all so yummy and we came at the right time cause they were hot off the press! We also got to coffees that kept us awake till midnight. Happy New Year everyone Xo Veronica read more

Do you like their croquetas? If you do, just google Catalina Croquettes, and order yourself a box of 100 for....$11. That's right, the bakery that publicizes their croquetas uses frozen mass produced, bottom of the barrel product. When I saw the freezer door in the back open, and there were dozens of boxes, my heart sank. We are being lied to. read more

Love the food and service behind the counter. Only complaint, employee aggressively cleaning when you're sitting down to eat. Literally had my shoe mopped while eating my food. She almost tripped various customers in my presence and picked up on no cues. Not to mention that cleaning while people are eating isn't appropriate. read more

I am not going to lie, ALL their products are amazingly good. Pastries are the best. BUT with exception of the coral gables store that has good customers service, the customer service at almost all their stores is TERRIBLE, BAD, UNACCEPTABLE, Specially the ladies. Ladies we are not getting the product for free, we are paying. And it's not at an specific store, is in almost all of them because since I am all over Miami, I have pass by almost all of them and is disappointment over disappointment. read more

Well I have seen some mixed reviews for Pinecrest Bakery and I can't comment on any delivery issues as I have always gone on site; however, I have to say that every time I have been there the customer service has been excellent. I will tell you that it does get a little crazy when the place is packed but their staff does a good job of helping everyone. I was just their this past Saturday to pick up some empanadas for a family gathering and they offered to bake me a total of 24 fresh empanadas for my order. If that isn't good customer service I don't know what is. Everyone was very friendly in typical Cuban bakery fashion; also, all staff was wearing masks and gloves as well. Another plus is they are open 24 hours, which works well on the weekends. While I was waiting for my empanada order, I decide to get a Cafe con Leche (Large Latte) and a Pan con Lechon (Roasted Pork Sandwich). Both were excellent and very fresh. While I was enjoying my meal I noticed that the place started to get packed but everyone was observing social distancing and following the rules which was great. Tables are scarce as they are limiting at this time how many can sit inside but about four tables are available. Afterwards I cruised by the various refrigerators and they had all the usual bakery confections represented; however, on the cake side they had a number of the typical Cuban cake varieties and the more American style cakes as well. Needless to say the empanadas were a major hit at the family gathering. Everyone was commenting on how great they were and I can honestly say they were very good. I for one am very happy to have this bakery in the area as South Dade does have a shortage of good bakeries. Glad to see that they have been able to survive the pandemic as well. If you are in the area and looking for some Cuban coffee, croquettes, hot pastelitos or other pastries swing by and check them out. Enjoy and Bon Appétit! read more

Likely one of the best "pan con tortilla" I've ever had. The bread was soft and gooey on the inside, yet crunchy on the outside. Service was great, everything you want from a Latin bakery. It was surprisingly well organized, with a separate coffee station, centralized cashier and incredibly fast kitchen. The cortadito, likely one of the best I've had as well. Really great coffee! Thank you! Since this bakery is on the north side of a shopping center, there was plenty of parking readily available. They seem to be having some issues with the a/c system and condensation as it's leaking on people as you walk in, but it's Miami, the drops will evaporate in seconds. read more

I don't know if the people working here don't know how to read or what, every time I order something they miss a part of my item, if it was once or twice ok fair, but every time?

This place used to be amazing I don't know if they changed management or what but it needs to go back to what it used to be read more

We ordered the Traditional Cuban and Steak sandwich on the telephone. When i went to pick up they stated that they ran out of Cuban bread without letting me know first? Like HUH because I was in a hurry I did not look at the receipt until I got home and was charged an additional $10.81 in gratuity that I DID NOT approve. I will never go here again nor will the people whom did NOT eat these sandwiches. Don't waste your hard earned money in this place not worth it. Wow read more

Everyone is so nice at this bakery. I love it here. Quality food great prices. Nice area to sit and eat. They are even doing a toy collection for the community. Love it!

Casual cafeteria / bakery serving counter served pastries and coffee, plus some other Cuban specialties. Staff is nice. They have good Cuban coffee. The scrambled eggs with French fries is my top go, the fries are well seasoned ( get it with ham inside the scrambled ) it's fairly priced and tastes really good. The lady who helps me is always nice and talkative. ( she's always telling me about her family in Cuba ). TRY THE PASTELLITO DE GUAVA!!!! read more

DO NOT order their imperial rice! It was disgusting!. this was the first time ordering from them and it was a huge disappointment. first I placed the order for 3.00. my son was there untill 4:00!!! waiting. they said they were "heating it up". ! i had no choice than to have him wait because we had 25 people to feed. when dinner time arrived and the rice was served, it looked like a paste inside of the rice. ( not shedded chicken or chunks. (a paste!) non of the guests ate it! I threw it out ! they kept asking if it was canned tuna !!! I was totally embarrassed ! totally unacceptable and I will be requesting a refund! NEVER AGAIN! read more

Fui al Bakery que está en la 216 y la US1 por algunas cosas, esta es la segunda vez que visito el lugar. La primera vez que fui, cuando llegué no habían clientes solo era yo, no me dijeron ni buenas tardes, las dependientes estaban hablando entre ellas y me atendieron cuando quisieron. Hoy fui pensando que iba a ser diferente, resulta ser que fue peor ellas máquinas llaman por número no saludan te preguntan directamente que vas a querer. Para rematar se me cae el café con leche y ninguna fue capaz de preguntar ni por educación si quería otro. La verdad creo que deberian trabajar más en el servicio al cliente, podrán ser uno de los pocos bakery que hay aquí abajo pero no el único. read more

My review went from 4 to 2. Because of the lack of cleaningness an attitude of an employee. Let me explain: they ask you for the tip before they give you the service. Ok. I can do that, but then I expect some kind of service. Well, after paying and everything, the only available table ( there are only 5 tables at this location) was extremely dirty. I told the server, expecting that he would send someone to clean or do it himself (he didn't have a name tag, but was a very short brunnet guy), instead he show me the cleaning spray and where the paper towel was. I pointed out that the tip is supposed to be for that, but he replied that I had to clean it myself. Sadly, the manager was next to him, but she said nothing at all. The food is still flavorful, but the portions have decreased. read more

We went to the one in Pinecrest in Miami very early in the morning.... The service was great. We had coffee and delicious pastries. It's been two weeks and i cannot remember what we ate but we both enjoyed it. Croquettas were delicious ! read more

If you are in the mood for Latin pastelitos, they have a huge assortment. HOWEVER, the prices are outrageous for the quality that you could get at another, cheaper cuban bakery. I don't recommend trying any of their desserts. I got a slice of chocolate cake. The cake was dry and the layers were separated by an overly sweet chocolate and vanilla meringue. I shudder to think what they would fill the Opera cake with! I think that basically, it is an overpriced Latin bakery which is just one of 10 million that one could choose from in Miami. Very disappointed in the quality and pricing of the food. read more
