Can't believe it took us years of living nearby to finally try this place, but now I totally get why people rave about Pronto's pan con bistec. Service was friendly, the atmosphere was exactly what you'd expect from this little hole-in-the-wall. I'm not someone who usually loves pan con bistec, but Pronto's version may have changed my mind. Steak was super tender, packed with flavor, and don't even get me started on the bread. So good. If you're in the mood for pan con bistec and don't want to gamble, don't second-guess this place. They know exactly what they're doing. read more

I haven't posted a review in a while, but today I'm forced to--because this place deserves it. We came here after a food influencer claimed they had one of the best steak sandwiches in Miami, and let me just say... this was not an exaggeration. Let's start with the star of the show: the steak sandwich. Perfectly cooked steak, what I think were pickled onions, and a sauce that is definitely not mayo. Whatever it is, it hits your taste buds about 30 seconds after you bite in and completely takes over--in the best way possible. I honestly can't describe it properly. You just have to try it. We also ordered a few other items: * Fresh-squeezed orange juice (so good) * Steak and rice (really solid) * Pork for my very picky eater--and when I say phenomenal, I mean I could not believe how much she actually ate. Now let's talk service. This is a cafeteria-style spot, so you'd expect average service, right? Absolutely not. From the moment we walked in, we were helped with our order, given thoughtful recommendations (especially for our picky eater), and they even anticipated our needs by bringing spoons for our little girls without us asking. I honestly haven't felt this welcomed in a restaurant in a long time. It truly felt family-owned and operated--in the best way. And here's the best part... They're on Uber Eats!!!!! Do yourself a favor: order the steak sandwich and thank me later. read more

I'm late on this review but better late than never. Anyways I was in the mood for a pan con bistec but the cafe by me they have good food just not up to par with the pan con bistec. So I looked what's the best on Instagram many came up but Pronto was available on Uber Eats so that's what I want with and oh man was I satisfied. It came a little cold cause it was far away but I warmed it a little and I could only imagine how it would be if I got it there in person. The steak was perfectly seasoned and not chewy. The bread fresh and the perfect chew and softness. The toppings and sauce just gave it an awesome finish of perfection. So yeah if you can go there or even get delivery it's so worth it!!! read more

I had been craving Pan Con Bistec for a few weeks now and this restaurant popped up on my Instagram. So why not? My sandwich was good, but I have definitely had better. The steak was over seasoned to my liking. My husband ordered the Tilapia he said was good, but we were a bit confused when the food arrived in a to go box even though we were dining in. It seems that is the way they serve the food. The service was good, and I must say that the restaurant was clean. read more

I only came here because of the pan con bistec going viral on IG as the Best one in all of Miami. Needless to say it wasn't but it was good I wouldn't say the best. The food was decent and the staff were very inviting. I had the grilled chicken meal, one beef empanada, batido de trigo and one pan con bistec. These are all pretty much staple dishes growing up in Miami. Again, all were good just not the best. They do have potential to take it up a notch, but I respect where they're at and what they're trying to provide to the local community which is authentic Cuban food. read more

Believe the hype! Pronto Cafe at 86 W 29th Street in Hialeah is worth the Waze GPSing for us non-Hialeahians to get there. We ordered the Pan Con Bistec of course and we're not disappointed. The steak was tender, well seasoned with a citrusy marinade, with fresh fried potato sticks, lettuce, tomato and mayo. Perfectly pressed too so that the Cuban bread with toasted and crunchy. We also lucked out in spotting the jar of baseball sized Merenguitos (meringues to our gringo pals) that were a crispy sweet treat. The gals behind the counter were attentive and super sweet. This unassuming, neat little Cuban counter style joint has nothing to envy their over priced competitors. I personally tried the Pan Con Bistec at Sanguich on Calle Ocho and Pronto's is ten times better. Cheaper, bigger servings and freshly delicious. It's a win all the way around. read more

Run, don't walk to Pronto Cafe! Lately I've noticed a a lot of the traditional pan con bistec and pan con lechón spots haven't been as good as they used to. Pronto Cafe saved us and graced us with delicious Cuban staples. We had the pan con bistec and pan con lechón. They are known for the best pan con bistec in Hialeah and honestly, as someone who has probably tried the majority of them, they really are the best. The steak is so soft and breaks off when you bite into it (we've all experienced a steak that's so hard you can't bite through!). It is seasoned to perfection and you taste it with every bite. The bread is also so soft on the inside and the perfect amount of crunch/toast on the outside. The pan con lechón is also absolutely delicious. The seasoning, the softness of the pork, and the freshness are phenomenal. My sister said they should also name the pan con lechón as best in Hialeah and I agree! I wish I would've taken more photos (and better than the one I took) but I was too excited to start eating when I saw and smelled them lol! As a Cuban girly who needs her sandwich fixes pretty often, I know I'll be going to Pronto from now on! read more

Listen up. If you are expecting a restaurant or a waitress - this is not the place for you. This is a dive - a true Hialeah experience. Clean establishment with hardworking people, nice clean bathrooms, great a/c nice, nice ladies working behind the counter- nonstop, and, still with a good attitude. Parking is limited because it's in a shopping strip. Be patient. Order your food at the register- pay, give your name and any one of the ladies will bring it to your table. The place is small, 6 tables of 4 and one long table for 8. This place serves up good cuban comfort food- look up their menu online. Pan con bistec is what they are known for. It was good enough to have again but not the best I've had. Also tried the plain chicken wings- again, good and crispy but no big deal. Next time, I will order the cuban pizza- I have never tried a Cuban pizza. Kudos to you Pronto- hasta pronto! read more

I'm really picky about pan con bistec, usually the bread is too hard or the steak is too tough to bite through. But this spot nailed it. Honestly one of the best I've ever had, and of course it's in Hialeah! Only $9.99, and it was so good I grabbed one to go. The ladies working there were super nice too. 10/10 read more

I finally stopped by to try the pan con bistec and judge for myself what the rave is all about. While I waited I got to speak with the owner, super nice guy. The place was clean and, from what I saw, the staff were very nice to every customer that walked in. The place doesn't have much ventilation so just be prepared for your clothes to smell like food. But what about the pan con bistec? Believe the hype people, it was phenomenal! All I know I'll be coming back for more. The fries were really good too, crispy and delicious. You'll be seeing more of me over here :) read more

They claim to have the best "Pan con Bistec" and I dare say they do! There is limited seating as it is a cafe, but regardless the service was excellent. We live by Doral so it is pretty much of our way, however it is worth the drive. read more

Pronto Café has amazing food items and we highly recommend the Mamey shake. We will be back real soon.

Horrible place Food was not fresh steak was very small potato sticks, soggy, and onions burnt for the price. You can go anywhere else too expensive read more

I never leave reviews... I came across this spot last week on my TikTok, I happened to be in the area for work today... I stopped in, and boy am I glad I did. This pan con bistec is phenomenal, best I've ever had! This spot is worth the hype! Service was great, it took a little time as it should and I think the owner was there. There were some customers waiting and I think the owner realized they were waiting a little longer than usual, and he came out greeted them and apologized for the wait. This spot is definitely worth it and be patient I think they are starting to get really busy bc of social media.. it's worth it and I think it was pretty quick service in my opinion. You order at the counter and either sit at a table to eat or take it to go. Seems like as small business and they are pouring the love into their food. 10 out of 10! read more

I decided to order from your restaurant based on all the wonderful reviews I had heard. To start off with at 9:30 AM today. My daughter began to call your location and was put on hold for over five minutes. She decided to hang up and call back when she called back they told her that you were very busy that she would have to put the order online. Needless to say she explained to the employee that the order was for a pick up. It was not for delivery. Your employee continued to say to place the order online, even if it was for pick up. My daughter ended up using the online app, which to my surprise when I got the bill realized that each sandwich was costing over two dollars more only because I had to go through a third-party. I find a ridiculous and totally unnecessary. I called your location. Spoke to the girl at the phone. Explain what happened and she denied having said that to my daughter and that there was no one else there that could've said that to her. This first experience has left a very bad taste in my mouth. The sandwich was OK. I gave it a 7 out of 10, but the service not acceptable. I don't see a reason to have to go through a third-party to place an order that is going to be picked up. Why the extra cost I would love to hear from the owner a good explanation as to why this has to happen. read more

One of the best pan con bistecs in the game for sure! Congrats to the team. Great experience, and even better food.

Stopped here for a quick bite and let me tell you....I would come here again. The 2 ladies were the sweetest and were so accommodating!!! I was trying to decide on drinks and she told me that she could keep the tab open while I decide. The food was amazing!!!! We had the Cuban and bistec sandwich. Both delicious. Both my kids gave it the thumbs up and my little guy ate half of the sandwich without protesting. They are pretty big sandwiches. I ended up ordering another to go! My hubby got the platter with moro, tostones y sister and palomilla....delicious. The place was nice and clean and super spacious! Def recommend if anyone is close by to stop by. You won't be disappointed! read more

Great Steak Sandwich, ordered via Uber Eats. The pickled onions really make a nice difference. Everything was so smooth and easy, will definitely come back for more! read more

( No parking ) Then when you come in You order and pay and then sit down no waitress no water no napkins no ketchup no salt or pepper and bad attitudes and some of the worst music in Hialeah. When our breakfast arrived the eggs were hard as a rock. But at least it's better than eating at the bus depot. Terrible service read more

Best Pan con bistec in Miami hands down! You know a sandwich is good when you eat after it got cold and it's still as delicious as when it was first made. Super friendly staff and extremely clean ambience. I can literally eat there every single day and not get sick of it because every item in the menu feels homemade and tastes amazing! read more
