Today, while waiting for something to print at Office Depot, I was searching for a nearby brunch spot when it popped up in my search & I'm so glad I did! First of all, the place is absolutely adorable. It was a packed Sunday morning around 11 a.m. Only one tiny table was left inside, though there were a couple outside too. Honestly, on a beautiful Miami morning, I wouldn't have minded sitting outdoors at all. What really stood out, though, was the service. Gabriela, our hostess and waitress, was wonderful. Warm, welcoming, attentive, and genuinely kind with a huge smile. She walked us through the menu, answered questions about dishes I didn't recognize (it's a Venezuelan spot, after all), and made us feel completely taken care of. Even more impressive was that she seemed to be the only waitress on duty yet never came across as flustered or hurried or anything other than pure sunshine! I ordered my longtime favorite, the arepa perica, just like I used to when I worked nearby, along with a fresh-squeezed orange juice and a chicken empanada to try. My father ordered the desayuno criollo. Everything was absolutely delicious. The presentation was beautiful, the plating thoughtful, and the flavors delivered across the board. The space was lively and full of families, making it a great Sunday brunch spot. Everything was spotless, and I don't usually call that out because it should be a given, but the restroom was impressively clean. Like extra clean. I also just learned they have multiple locations now, which is amazing. Well deserved. I can't wait to go back, and I wish them continued success.

One time, I had a mix-up with the menu when ordering a pepito--I misunderstood how it was labeled--but the team handled it immediately and with zero hesitation. They were kind, understanding, and quickly made me a new order without any hassle. That level of care really stood out to me. On top of that, the quality of the food is next level. Everything tastes incredibly fresh, flavorful, and made with attention to detail. The atmosphere is just as impressive. The space has a fun, energetic vibe that fits perfectly with Wynwood, making it a great spot to hang out and enjoy a meal. What really makes it special, though, is the staff--everyone is always smiling, welcoming, and genuinely seems happy to be there. That kind of positive energy says a lot and makes the whole experience even better. Great food, great atmosphere, and even better service--definitely a spot I'll keep coming back to.

We also ordered the beef soup, which could have used a bit more flavor, and the Holiday plate, which was okay but not something that stood out. The double cheeseburger and an arepa were also just okay and probably not dishes we'd order again. Unfortunately, we also ordered the pepito mixto, but it never arrived because our waiter forgot to place the order. Service overall was a bit slow, and the atmosphere felt a little quiet--some music would really help improve the ambience. That said, the salad, plantains and juices alone would bring us back. We'd definitely return for those.

We have been coming here for quite some time, and overall our experiences have consistently been…read morepositive. The service is attentive, and the food is excellent -- both in flavor and presentation. It's a place we have genuinely enjoyed visiting. However, during our most recent visit, there were a few concerns that stood out. First, we noticed that the prices listed on the menu did not match the prices on the receipt. While the differences were only a few dollars, it's important for pricing to be transparent and consistent to avoid confusion. We also really enjoyed the live music -- it created a wonderful atmosphere. However, once the band went on break, videos from the same artist played for over an hour. In our opinion, the content seemed directed toward one specific culture. Given that this is South Florida, where multiculturalism is such a big part of the community, it would be great to see entertainment that reflects and embraces a broader audience. Finally, while the food remains very good, the portion sizes feel small for the current pricing. It seems that prices have increased noticeably, and the value does not feel quite as balanced as before.

This place is demasiado brutal, vale!…read more Pepito's Plaza Brickell is pure Venezuelan soul wrapped in an arepa. The La Pelúa is the real MVP, packed hasta el tope with juicy carne mechada and melted yellow gouda that hits en el alma. It's not just tasty, it's arrechísima. You bite into that and boom, you're back on the streets of Caracas, eating sabroso and forgetting you're even in Brickell. And the papitas fritas? Una vaina seria. Super crispy, golden, and totally addictive. You'll say you're just gonna try a few... mentira. You'll crush the whole thing before you're halfway through your arepa. Can't miss the toppings like alioli, garlic, guasacaca, spicy, or the Venezuelan punch, tartar sauce. Now let's talk billete: the price is a ganga. For what you get, massive portions, flavor for days, and that homemade feel, it's honestly a steal. In this part of Miami? That's a miracle with guasacaca on top. Plus, the crew? Unos cracks. Full-on Venezuelan warmth, quick service, good vibes, and they treat you like you've been coming there since chamito. Yasimar (pelo largo negro chick, Elizabeth, Lizbeth, Juan, and Efrain, gracias por contagiar real pana energy all around. In short: La Pelúa + crispy fries + price that doesn't hurt + puro sabor criollo + a killer team = 20/10. Go, eat, and leave saying: "¡Coño, qué brutal está esto!"

The food is Venezuelan but is really Venezuelan comfort food you'd crave after a night at the bar(s) -- of which there are many nearby. Prices were higher than expected but the quality was there. My "special bbq mixta" (grilled steak and chicken) were delicious, approaching the same level of awesomeness as Pinolandia's carne asada. My wife loved her veggie dog covered in toothpick-sized potato chips and pink sauce. My daughter devoured her tacos and my son refused to eat anything... *sigh* I might even go back before we leave to try the burger that Bourdain ate, the Doralzuela...

We were pleased to finally try out this cozy Venezuelan restaurant last week. The owner greeted us…read morevery nicely and we were able to pick the table that we wanted because we were early arrivals. Parking was available on the street directly in front of 7tyone. The restaurant is nicely decorated and very clean. Service was friendly and quick. They seem very organized there and work well together. Even the owner pitched in. He was extraordinarily nice. Our server was Facundo, who did a great job of explaining the menu and checking on us fairly often. I ordered the Catira Chicken Arepa with Gouda. It was just ok. I like melted cheese in my arepas and this was still on the thick side but maybe that's how it's supposed to be. My daughter ordered the Palua Beef Arepa and said it was ok. We shared a few other items: Taquenos (very good), Cachapas bites (very good). We had lattes with our meals. We also bought croissants to take home, a Crookie croissant and a Nutella. They were pricey at $7.99 compared to other local cafes but they were delicious. We will return and try some other dishes in the near future.

Cute little bakery and restaurant in Miami…read more I was in Miami for the day and wanted to find one of the previously viral cookie dough croissants, or crookies. We happened to be nearby so I just decided to stop by and pick one up. The place is cute and stylish. It was early afternoon so only one other couple was there. The guy working the register immediately greeted me and was very helpful. I got the crookie and something called a Santiago cake which he described as a gluten free cinnamon flavored cake with almond flour. The crookie was tasty, the croissant was nice and soft, but I thought it was overly chocolately. There are a few types of chocolate chips in the cookie itself and it seems like they might even put Nutella in the croissant part too. Either way it was great to try it, but just a lot for one person to eat. The Santiago cake was pretty good too. It definitely tastes like cinnamon but unlike the crookie, it could have used a bit more flavor and could be a little more moist. Definitely worth trying both of these unique desserts, just not a must visit for me again.
