Small and big orange juice
Alfredo R.

The food was just as good as the first time I went. I got the "Super Magda's Breakfast," which I'd rate 9/10; the pineapples threw me off a bit, but it was at an incredible price, I should add. My wife had a carnitas quesadilla (5/10), and we both had two all-natural, freshly squeezed orange juices. Located in the center of downtown, it was a nice little spot with affordable prices and great portions. The service provided was great; since it isn't such a big restaurant, the staff were quite attentive, mindful of everyone, and accommodating to everyone's needs and wants. The ambiance is super chill with a very chic style and songs that both adults and kids would like--definitely a nice spot for pictures and to go with the family.

A hidden gem near bayside! We wanted some brunch and happened to come across this place which is currently hidden by construction. They have a multitude of brunch/breakfast options to choose from. I got the standard American breakfast and was pleasantly surprised with how quick it came out and the freshness of the food. The lady at the front is very kind and makes sure you enjoy your time there. Inside is decorated with florals and neon lights with cute sayings. I recommend everyone come try out this place!

Huevos Rotos. Tasty and felt homemade.
Dwight H.

My wife and I took a trip down to Miami to renew her German passport. The appointment was on a weekday in the morning so we travelled down the night before. In the morning before the appointment this place was literally around the corner from where we were staying. It's a quaint little place with probably about 10 tables. Scaffolding from the construction obscures it a bit. The woman working the front counter was the only person working the front of house. You order at the counter, take a number to your table and she brings it out. She was quite busy. We got there when it opened and more people came in shortly afterwards. But she was keeping up just fine. My wife got the Papillon Omelette Sandwich. She was expecting it to be smaller than what she received, and so in reality it was probably as large as one from a sub shop, so a pretty good deal. She liked it and couldn't quite finish it, so ended up picking out some ingredients at the end. I got the Huevos Rotos, and they were pretty good. Served on a sizzling plate. The aioli had a good flavor to it. My only nitpick would be that the potatoes, while good, were a bit too salty for me...and the eggs probably could have used some of that salt instead. Oh, and they have fresh squeezed OJ for about $5 for a large. I always enjoy those rare occasions when a place is serving that, so we both got one. I do recommend the place. It tastes home made. But the pastries looked like they may be store-bought, so we skipped those.

French Toast with Nutella
Jet C.

I came during Valentine's week so there are specials and decors specially for that. The French toast was alright, kinda ate dry that I had to wonder if it even had been dunked in the custard. For the price point, it's a little high for the return so that's one thing to keep in mind. The space isn't that large but the outdoor seating area is an option. The service is great and very helpful. It's a bit of a letdown though because it's more pomp than taste, the foods look great and inviting but while the fruits were fresh, overall the taste didn't match the looks and even the drinks were more aesthetics than actual flavor.

Inside
Cesa B.

We looked for a spot to have breakfast before a cruise and stumbled upon this place. In typical Miami fashion, parking is horrible. So we paid $10 in the lot and walked a block to it. It's small inside, very cute, but small...like 3-4 tables inside. Initially we sat at the first table we could find, as no one told us anything. We then noticed people lining up to order. Someone finally came from behind the counter and handed us a menu as we lined up. The menu is plentiful, but not descriptive. So thanks yelpers for your pictures! We tried the breakfast burrito and super breakfast wrap. We did not expect rice and beans in the burrito. We also didn't expect potato sticks in the wrap. But as I stated, we could only go by the pictures and welp, that wasn't steak! All in all our wraps were pretty good. Service was meh. Prices were decent. And it got the job done.

Ham and Cheese Omelet Homestyle Potatoes
LaTanya T.

Before my meal arrived I was planning on giving them a maximum of 4 stars, but the food was delicious and so the wait no longer mattered. If you are like me, you can taste the difference between fresh and frozen or processed food. The fresh OJ reminded me of what I loved most about Florida. Those fresh oranges right off a tree must have come from a tree nearby. The vibe was nice with a good Latin flavor.

#57 Papillon Papillon Eggs Benedict Breakfast and Super Magda's Breakfast
Andre D.

Been here many times first review. Food is always SO GOOD! Service is Great!! Latte with Carmel is a little much for a coffee cup. NEED BUTTER for you bread you put on the plate. STILL I Highly recommend!!

Samson C.

This place was absolutely amazing! I celebrated my 35th birthday with a party of 9, including 4 little ones under 10, and it was a blast. The food was incredible, especially the eggs Benedict , and the atmosphere was super intimate. The service staff was amazing and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. We had such a great first experience that we came back multiple times during our vacation.

What i ordered...
Denise G.

Just posting this a cautionary post... don't order the Italian toast online, you're not going to get what you're expecting. It wasn't bad, just not what I wanted. The place was nice and it was good but not what was advertised.

Kelly J.

Gross!!! Everything about this place was disgusting. It started with a weak cold cup of coffee. 1 person serving food AND clearing dirty dishes at the same time. Women's restroom closed. I had to ask for butter & jam for the bread. I ordered my eggs over medium. Eggs were like rubber & hard, bacon cold & a few measly potatoes. In my opinion they blew it on the stuffed banana French toast. They added allot of candied nuts to it. Way to sweet & the heavy sugar coating was grainy.

Smoked Salmon Cold Sandwich (very good)
Joe P.

CP is on the side street of my socio de negocios condo complex, Vizcayne in DT Miami. They offer bfast & lunch and are open until 5 pm. They do not offer lox & bagel, so I opted for the smoked salmon on baguette. The baguette was fresh, and nice and chewy. In addition, there was a fair amt of smoked salmon. However, half was cut at an angle, the other half was cut straight. I'm not sure if this was on purpose, but it looked odd. Regarding the ambiance, they have indoor & outdoor seating. You order & pay, and your food is brought to you. The staff is friendly, and the food came out quickly. All in all, a very good experience other than the common issue w/ dining out in MIA: The prices. The sandwich and a cafecito w/ tip was more than $20. I thought $15 would have been a fair price for what I received.

Great little whole in the wall great for a quick bite to eat .. portion are large. Friendly staff.

Skipped the crap restaurant at the Holiday Inn and came to this great cafe under the construction scaffolding. Best choice of our trip thusfar! Great food, great coffee, had regular, latte and cappucino. Very nice employees, cant speak highly enough of this little gem.

It doesn't matter if it's busy or slow, budget at least 30 minutes for getting your coffee and pastry once you've ordered and paid.

The flan was also delicious and definitely worth ordering. The staff were friendly and welcoming each time we visited. One thing I'd note for first-time visitors is that it seems easiest to order at the register, especially when things get busy and there's a lot going on. Great coffee, great food, and a place we'll continue coming back to whenever we're in Miami.

Pure Vida, a charming cafe, offers a delightful experience for those seeking a healthy breakfast or…read morelunch. It's reminiscent of Erth Cafe in the Los Angeles area, with multiple locations scattered throughout Miami. Unlike traditional cafes with table service, Pure Vida operates on a counter-based system. You receive a number upon ordering, and your food is promptly delivered. While they add a 5-10% service fee to your order, it's worth noting that they don't have dedicated servers, which is common in the Miami area. The food at Pure Vida is fresh, delicious, and presented in a clean manner. However, the vibrant flavors of their fresh sauces, reminiscent of a cleaner version of the vinegar salad dressing used on Subway subs, truly elevate the breakfast sandwiches. I also indulged in their regular coffee, which was exceptionally flavorful. Although they offer a variety of smoothies, I opted for a regular coffee that day due to my travel plans and the need to avoid any stomach discomfort. When I return to the Miami area, Pure Vida will undoubtedly be on my list of places to grab a satisfying and reasonably priced breakfast or lunch. The friendly staff and the kind-hearted servers who bring your food add to the overall positive experience. Pure Vida also serves as a popular gathering spot for young people. Despite the limited seating inside, the cafe has excellent air conditioning. Outside, there's ample space for patrons to relax and enjoy the pleasant weather.

If your thing is finding little gems with real heart, congratulations, you found one. I'm coming back to work through the whole menu, but fair warning, the PSL alone justifies the trip. Do not sleep on it.
