Came here one weekday afternoon since it had great reviews and the friend I was with was in the mood for Mexican food. This place did not disappoint! I ordered the Baja fish tacos and they were delicious and filling. The batter they used stuck well to the fish. We also shared a guac appetizer and it hit the spot. The server was attentive, I would definitely come back here.
This is one of my favorite Mexican spots. The green sauce enchiladas are my favorite, in fact so good that I forgot to take a picture of it. Their taco Tuesday deals are great and love their happy hours. Service is always greats and the ambiance is just so cozy.
We went for dinner on a Friday and it wasn't too busy so we were seated right away. They have great deals for happy hour so I recommend going for an early dinner. The appetizers and dinner came quickly and it was all excellent. But the real favorite was the ice cream!
Don't sleep on this spot! Cuban/mexican cuisine with amazing fun dishes and great service! I started with a tamarind margarita that was 10/10 (warning: must like sour drinks). Had some chips with three dip choices for appetizers that were great. The corn salsa was delicious. For my main, three hearty ropa vieja quesa tacos (shredded beef with cheese sauce). Crispy and crunchy outside with a rich saucy meat and cheese filling. For dessert, horchata ice cream topped fresh brownie. Service was also 10/10. Got crowded around 7pm on a Tuesday.
I've been waiting to try A-Mari-Mix ever since I saw that they had horchata soft serve and it did not disappoint!! I tried the horchata/chocolate swirl and it was so good! We also shared chips and salsa, and a smothered burrito with chicken. Definitely worth trying out!
I've really enjoyed this restaurant ever since they used to be on Coral Way. They have $2 taco Tuesday and a really cool horchata ice cream. RumChata was also good.
Good Mexican food by a Cuban family and thus, there are slight Cuban twists to some of the dishes, but they stay fairly true to the original cuisine. Restaurant was originally located in Westchester area (97th ave and Coral way) and moved here a few years back - this is a much nicer and bigger location. KEY NOTES: CLOSED on MONDAYS and have a WEEKEND BRUNCH until 3pm with a choice of $6 mimosas in 4 flavors - the guava is my preferred. Mimosas are OK, neither here neither there. All of their food is decent. The queso fundido is good - add the chorizo. The enchiladas are good too. However, I don't like their newest presentation in the skillet with the sides on a separate dish - it's hard to work the cutlery in the tight skillet. Originally this dish came in a larger oval platter. I ask for it to be presented in the original oval platter now whenever I have it. I've not had their tacos, but my guests have and they've found them to be very good in general. For their brunch, the Huevos Rancheros are good, but they apparently make the eggs fully OVERCOOKED even though I specifically asked for them over easy and was told no problem. When I saw them overcooked, I flagged another guy/server passing by who said that's how they make them and couldn't promise otherwise. What? The redo came did end up coming out more runny. My server was very nice - they all generally are nice except the guy I flagged (who I've seen there almost ever time before, but has never been my waiter). The girls are very nice as well; I believe they are the owner's daughters. For dessert, I've had the churros, which are better than in most places but are a too greasy and not sweet enough for my taste. I asked for additional caramel sauce to dip for sweetness, but it's too synthetic for myself to be enjoyable, which is unfortunate because the rest of the food seems to be made with decent quality ingredients. They offer a dessert with a soft serve in cherry flavor, which our very waiter very sweetly took the initiative to bring a sample of for tasting so we could decide on it, and while it tasted OK, it seemed made with the left over liquid in which you preserve maraschino cherries - like someone had the idea: let's not waste this syrup, we can use it to flavor a soft serve. The brunch French Toast is their take on a Mexican French Toast if there was one; made with Mexican tortillas in lieu of, well, French toasts. It was OK, taste was good, and most people will probably love it, but I prefer something that has French toast in it if you are going to call it that given that the toast is the key item of the dish. If you order the French Toast you also need to asks for forks to eat it. A restaurant trigger of mine is how few restaurants understand how to properly plate desserts with a dessert fork vs a dessert spoon - I don't know why everyone associates desserts with a spoon. And worse yet in this case, a soup spoon, not even a smaller dessert spoon. Only soft, creamy, liquid, delicate or layered desserts desserts (i.e. puddings, mousses, custards, ice cream, parfaits, etc.) are to be served with a 'dessert' spoon for easily scooping their soft textures. Firmer desserts with a solid texture, like cakes, pies, tarts, cobblers, etc. are to be served with a 'dessert' fork. Fork tines are the only part of the cutlery suited to cut through and lift these denser desserts without tearing the dessert apart. I know this is an overkill rant for a Mexican restaurant, but try eating a crunchy brittle tortilla (90% of the dessert) with a huge SOUP SPOON Anywho, to close, this place has good food, good service and good prices. You won't be disappointed :)
Wanted a burrito for dinner and definitely chose the right place. The smothered burrito is one of the best burritos I've ever had. 12/10 coming back just for this. For dessert, the pastel de elote with horchata on top was absolutely amazing - couldn't believe it was the first time I was trying that. Adriana our server was extremely kind and helpful. Feels like we found a new spot in Kendall that we love!
Yummy Mexican spot. Food was tasty and portions were good. Came for their Taco Tuesday ($2/taco) and they were delicious! The Esquites (corn) appetizer was amazing. Smothered Burrito was huge!Enchiladas were good and came with a side of rice and beans. Horchata ice cream was great! I do wish they served chips and salsa, it's usually a thing at Mexican places but this place does not do that. I also wish they had Birria tacos on their menu. Service was good, our waitress was friendly. Ambiance was nice and the place has a good amount of space and cute decorations.
Love the atmosphere! Felt welcomed from the second I walked through the door! Highly recommend. Everything that I ordered was delicious. The horchata ice cream, was a yummy treat.
Overall, good experience. My husband and I went to this restaurant on Saturday around 4 pm, there was no wait. My husband got some sangria which he enjoyed. We got the chips and salsa to start... while they were good, the serving was very small. For entrees my husband got the tostada which was well sized for the price and I got the chicken fajitas, I added on guacamole as a side. Delicious, really enjoyed my fajitas! The seating area and bathroom was clean, however, they were out of toilet paper.

At this point, I've probably reviewed Mari-Mix about 10 times . That should tell you everything you need to know. I keep coming back because this is my go-to spot whenever I'm craving tacos. The Cubanito tacos are a must for me, and the Baja fish tacos are just as good. Honestly, everything I've tried on the menu has been delicious. Their tostadas are another favorite, and the Elote Bomb is something you absolutely need to try. The food is consistently good, the portions are satisfying, and there's just something about the whole Mari-Mix experience that keeps me coming back. The ambiance is fun and inviting, and the service is always amazing. You feel welcomed every time you walk through the door. I've eaten here so many times that I've officially stopped pretending I'm going to try somewhere else when I'm craving tacos. Mari-Mix is the spot. If you love tacos and Mexican-inspired food, put this place on your list. I'll obviously be back... probably to leave review #11. Great food. Great service. Great ambiance. And tacos I never get tired of. read more
It's a random taco Tuesday and we're looking for a new MiAmI adventure! A quick yelping finds a highly rated local gem closeby. Located in a humble old strip mall is Mexican Heaven on plates! There's everything to love here! The place is FIRE!! It's smallish, but punches well over its weight in service, atmosphere, pricing specials, excitement and CUISINE! Our waiter is Gabriel (an angel) with his super fun personality full of spunky energy and a smile that lights up the room. His genuine enthusiasm for the restaurant and all its offerings and chef work shows in abundance. He shows us all the amazing Tuesday deals like $2 taco specials etc & drinks galore, giving us great advice. We opt for the three dips (corn elote, salsa, guac) and house chips to start. Comes out quick, ample portion to share and super fresh. Expert tip: pile all three in a chip, top with another chip and go crazy! The drinks also look terrific, but sadly we choose to have a dry night. Ah well, Next time! I opt for two recommended $2 tacos of carnitas and beef. Highly recommend!! Hubby gets three tacos off regular menu. Still delicious and well priced, chicken, pork & the steak is a real standout. We MUST have dessert! Gabriel recommends exactly what we also have our eye on--horchata soft serve ice cream, so we get one on a brownie! It's a perfect end to a very happy Taco Tuesday meal. We WILL be def back in regular rotation. Thanks for following me happy yelping in hawt summer 2026! ~Tami in Miami read more
Honestly, I don't even know where to start. I absolutely love this place. Taco Tuesday always seemed just too cliché for me, but I was craving a fish taco and found good reviews for A-Mari-Mix. So often we went not realizing the taco Tuesday in this restaurant is a neighbourhood favorite. There was a bit of a line to get in, and the place was packed. They were great tunes playing, and people were at the tables making all kinds of happy noises. We were seated pretty quickly. Our waiter Gabriel was a phenomenal, perhaps one of the best waiters I've ever had. He showed us the taco Tuesday specials, and we instantly forgot that we've come there for fish tacos. Four kinds were only two dollars each for this weekly special but even the specialty tacos or only a small surcharge. We started with the appetizer special that was three dips and tortilla chips. This included guacamole, street corn, and salsa. All three were delicious and it was a pretty large portion. I tried chicken, roast, pork, and steak tacos. The steak was my favorite as it was expertly, marinated and really delicious and tender but one of these tacos was better than any taco that I've had anywhere else. There is a lot of culinary artistry that goes into the recipes. The expertly marinated meats were incredibly tasty and the balance of flavors made for an unexpectedly wonderful dining experience. For dessert, we had a delicious warm, brownie top with Horchata and chocolate sauce. This is all made in the house and was really outstanding. There is nothing about this experience that was not perfect. The vibe of the place just added to the enjoyment of the mail. The food was as good as I've had ever at a Mexican restaurant, including in Mexico. The service was absolutely exceptional. Love this place and will be a regular there. Highly recommended. read more

Been here a few times (old location as well). Food is solid- had the ropa vieja tosones and cubanito tacos as well as a homemade limeade that was really good BUT the star of the show was the horchata icecream. Wow! I ordered the regular but they have an afogato style and brownie concoction which I will be back for. Service is attentive, laid back no pressure. read more

While visiting family in the area decided to give this place a try. This place really surprised us, we ordered chips and salsa to start while we perused the menu. We decided on Al Pastor and Baja Tacos which we both shared. We must say that we didn't expect it to be so flavorful and a hefty on the portions. The place was well kept and noise level was on the louder side but only because of the large party sitting next to us. Service was good and waitress was attentive. After asking for the bill they did bring us a sample of the horchata ice cream which was amazing, smart move for giving us a sample of the ice cream, gives us a reason to head back. read more

First time flyer but not the last. Ordered to go on my way home from my daughter's art class. When we picked up the place was packed! We ordered taco Tuesday tacos and el queso fundido which the gal on the phone recommended we heat up once we got home. Truly appreciated her suggestion pero that thing didn't make it half way down the block. The tacos were delicious and authentic to Mexican taco cuisine. I'm so happy we decided to stop by. Thank you for your service and attention to detail when we picked up our order. read more

legendary mexican place near FIU. it's not very big inside but it still feels spacious. service is usually meh but the food is so good that i don't mind. nobody has ever been rude to me or anything so, again, i don't mind. i used to come here for taco tuesday & yap with my friends. i even visited on my 22nd birthday because it was on a tuesday lol. the food here is really, really good. it is mexican fusion so there's a lil bit of that cali-mex vibe. i've mostly had all kinds of tacos but i've also tried the burrito clásico and the guacamole (not pictured sadly) which are great. i think their guac is my favorite! read more

Came back once again for taco Tuesday! These are some of my fav tacos so I couldn't pass up their deal. This time around, I tried some more items off their menu like the ropa vieja tostones, pineapple sangria, and queso fundido. The tacos were great and flavorful as usual, I got the chicken and ropa vieja. I also really liked their tostones and thought they were well portioned. The ropa vieja was seasoned and cooked very well, it was soft not chewy. For a drink, I ordered the pineapple sangria which was yummy but I expected it to be a little sweeter. I wasn't a fan of how they squeezed a lime in, I felt it could do without. I also got to try their queso fundido and honestly wasn't a big fan, it had to be my least favorite. There wasn't much to it and the tortilla chips felt a bit greasy and didn't pair well. read more

Amari mix is my FAVORITE Mexican restaurant in Miami. I have been coming here for years and it has never disappointed me. The service is amazing as all the staff are very kind. The food is to die for truly it's their take on Mexican food with a Cuban twist. At this point I've pretty much tried everything and there's not one item I don't recommend! The horchata ice cream is a MUST! The ambiance is very casual too so I like that you can pretty much dress however yet have amazing food. read more

First time here. Wanted to try their burritos. In on a Sunday at 3:45 for dinner. Not real busy. I could see them being real noisy if they were. ORDERED: Chips and guacamole $10 Good Smothered Steak Burrito $18 OK. Have had better cheaper. Had to send it back as it was not hot. This is a regular occurrence with burritos. Churros with caramel sauce $5 OK 3 crunchy pieces about 6 or 7 inches long. Service was OK not great. Long way from home. read more

Chips & Salsa is usually free at Mexican restaurants. Is it free here?
No, nachos are not complementary and if you purchase them, they serve very little and not worth the price.
Hi, does the refried beans have lard in them? Is it vegan?
No, they are vegetarian.
Have they gone through new ownership? We've noticed from our last visit a lot of changes in the restaurant including the taste
Hello, Stephanie We are still under the same ownership, hope you enjoyed your experience with us. Thank you for your support. Hope to see you soon.…
