    I was introduced to Per'La when I happened upon the Instagram Live that co-founders Chris and Paul…read moredid with Yelp Miami recently... They were so approachable, knowledgeable, and fun, that I wanted to support them, so I purchased some coffee. This was on a Thursday morning. The coffee was delivered across the country to my doorstep in Arizona on Saturday - I was super impressed! We made a pot of the Miami Restaurant Employee Relief Fund Blend this morning and it was fabulous. I typically put some steamed almond milk into my coffee but I drank it black (and several cups). It wasn't just me who enjoyed it either. It also passed the test of my judgemental, 43 year old Jewish husband's palate. He always takes his coffee black and this was no exception. I will definitely visit the Per'La coffee shop whenever I make my way back to Miami, but in the meantime, I'm sending love from Phoenix during these crazy times. I know where to look if I ever have questions related to coffee as well! Thanks Team Per'La!

La barista estaba en otro mundo, chismeando con la compañera en vez de atender. Cuando al fin me hicieron caso, el café tardó una eternidad y, para colmo, salió tan quemado que parecía que lo habían olvidado en la máquina. ¡Y las facturas! Con esa pinta, pensé que serían frescas, ¡y me salieron duras como piedras! De verdad, ¡qué pérdida de tiempo!

After giving it a try, I have turned into one of those people in the Department Coffee crowd of stans. You can't go wrong with anything you get here. A coworker and I even have a refillable bottle that we bring to the booth on a monthly basis to get our Nitro on tap fix. To add, the customer service is always on point. I highly encourage all Yelpers to try out anything and everything brewed and mixed by Department Coffee.

They had the nitro tank and all. Today's coffee was from Guatemala and Indonesia. We had an amazing "tres leche" cold coffee, served with some sugar, which for me was the perfect amount, and sprinkled nutmeg on top. So flavorful, and hits the spot. We also had a hibiscus, lime mixed, with jalapeño, YES, jalapeño. This drink was not only beautiful, but also delicious. Served cold and so refreshing. I could taste and smell the aroma of the hibiscus while I enjoyed the spicy jalapeño. Was so gooooood. Wonderful service of one of the guys with a huge smile on his face, plus their prices were great. Totally affordable and more than good for the quality of their coffee. Thank you guys!

    This coffee shop is near my home, and I visit it often when I take my boys to get a haircut next…read moredoor. The staff is truly amazing, very nice, and hardworking. I also love the decor with different types of seating, giving it a very homey feel. They offer different types of coffee options, both iced and hot as well as pastries, sandwiches and other dishes. I always order the Caprese sandwich, always tasty to say the least. One thing I have ordered that could be improved would be the avocado toast. It's just a piece of toast with plain smashed avocado, nothing great about it and quite flavorless. If they changed it up, adding ingredients and spices to it, it would elevate it. Other than that, for now, it's a great stop for a quick coffee and bite.

What you seen from the outside does not match the experience when inside. With cozy and rustic decor, this spot gets packed and that's always a good sign. Service is quick and simple and everyone's friendly. It's a local favorite. They offer an amazing variety of fresh brewed coffee delights. Not a coffee person like me, they also have fresh squeezed juices and power and energy or healthy juice blends. Pastries galore and you will have a hard time picking a choosing with sweet and savory choices. Hot breakfast items made fresh from omelettes to avocado toasts. Great for whatever breakfast mood you may be in! Enjoying Roasting Buddies is a wonderful way to start your morning.

    Before I ever tasted a single bean, the name stopped me cold. Calusa. A roaster bearing the name of…read morean Indigenous people -- the Calusa, the ancient shell-mound builders, the unconquered lords of South Florida's mangroves and waterways. People who never surrendered. People whose bones are folded into this very soil. As someone who walks through this world carrying Taíno blood and the memory of peoples whose names colonizers tried to erase, that word hit different. It wasn't a gimmick. It wasn't a logo. It was a declaration -- that this land has a story older than any espresso machine, and somebody here understood that. That understanding alone earned my curiosity and my respect before I'd even stepped through the door. "The name carried the weight of a people who never bent. That's the kind of legacy worth building a roastery around." Then I learned the story behind the man behind the roaster -- and it only deepened my respect. Luis Arteaga came home from serving in the United States Marine Corps and did what so many veterans do: he looked for work. No fanfare. No red carpet. Just a man with discipline in his bones and calluses on his hands, trying to find his next mission in a civilian world that doesn't always know what to do with people like that. He found his way to the original owners of Calusa Coffee Roasters. They saw in him what the Corps had always seen -- dependability, grit, and a willingness to learn. They gave him a job. A floor to stand on. And Luis did what Marines do -- he didn't just fill a position, he grew into something greater. Over time, through sweat and dedication and an unmistakable passion for the craft, he rose to become the owner of the very roastery that once took a chance on him. That's not a business story. That's an American story. A veteran's story. And it's exactly the kind of origin that makes a cup of coffee taste like something more than coffee. CALUSA COFFEE ROASTERS IS A SOUTH FLORIDA INSTITUTION Fast forward to today, and Calusa Coffee Roasters isn't just surviving -- it is a staple. Walk into the right cigar bar on a Friday evening and someone at the table will mention the name. Sit down at the right diner counter on a Tuesday morning and a regular will nod toward that familiar bag. In South Florida's rich, layered, cafecito-and-culture coffee landscape, that kind of word-of-mouth is earned over years of consistency, of showing up, of never letting the cup get small. Luis continues to build something that belongs to this community -- rooted in the terroir of a region as complex and layered as its people. The coffee is exceptional. Bold where it should be bold, nuanced where it earns it. The kind of roast that makes you sit down instead of rushing out. That's no accident. That's someone who respects the craft because he was forged in institutions that demand nothing less than your best. "When a Marine finds his mission in a roastery, every bag he puts his name on carries the same standard -- do it right or don't do it at all." Meeting Luis was one of those moments I didn't expect to move me the way it did. We are both moving through the coffee world trying to build something that means something -- something rooted in identity, in service, in the belief that what's in the cup should tell a story worth hearing. And here was a fellow Marine who had walked a road I recognize: uncertain ground, earned footing, and a refusal to quit. And finally, if you are in South Florida and you have not made the pilgrimage to Calusa Coffee Roasters on Commercial Blvd, you are overdue. Go for the coffee -- stay for the story. And if you're lucky enough to meet the man himself, shake his hand. He earned it in more ways than one. To Luis Arteaga and everyone at Calusa: thank you for carrying a name that honors this land. Thank you for honoring the service that shaped you. And thank you for a cup of coffee that carries the weight of all of it without spilling a drop. Semper Fi, brother. Keep roasting.

My fiancee seemed content with their flavors and she didn't yell at me. So based on this, I would assume Calusa Coffee has some decent coffees. Please try this place and see if you enjoyed it as much as my fiancee. The location is a bit weird to enter and exit so be careful driving in and out. They offer limited parking so bring plenty of patience with you when visiting!
