    I have been here twice and both times I got what I needed. Service is great, I called before to ask if they had a wine I was looking for and the lady answered my call nicely and told me she had the wine after she went and looked for it. Once I got there, she recognized me. Clean place, good prices, and a huge variety of products.

    Awesome looking - and tasting - soup
    Sergio F.

    Y'all remember the story of Goldilocks and the 3 Bears right? You know, the too hot, too cold, just right deal? A lot of places here serve soup to a temperature that requires having the Miami Fire Department on speed dial. Just because it's 60 degrees and I need soup to warm up doesn't mean I want to get third degree burns. Here's where Stop and Shop picks up it's 5th star. These days of freezing temperatures in Miami I have actually had to partake in soups. Today, for example, I had the chicken noodle soup. (Their soup selections vary daily, and they usually have two choices). The soup container is generous both in terms of volume, and the contents itself as the soup is hearty, has plenty of actual chicken pieces, and veggies in addition to noodles. And the soup was at the JUST RIGHT temperature! Of course, they're also known for their sandwiches and in addition to the honey ham one I've had prior, I've also gotten to enjoy the honey turkey and buffalo chicken ones. As usual, the pieces of ham are plentiful and they have my craved-for red peppers! Since I had to get back to my 9-to-7 I couldn't sample the beers just yet but did stroll around the store and saw the selection is plentiful. I plan to finally partake in those this weekend!

    AMAZING SELECTION of Boars Head deli meats & cheese.

    FIVE STAR DELI AND MORE!!!! These guys make the best subs in South Florida. This is NOT your typical convenience store which just happens to sell sandwiches. This is a legitimate full size Deli & Bakery, which just happens to be located inside of a (incredible) convenience store. I believe a great sub starts with the bread. Some places bake all of their bread very early in the morning. At Downstairs I always see them pulling out small batches of banquettes, fresh from their oven throughout the entire day. Besides the banquette and Italian Hoagie which are my personal favorites, they also have whole wheat, Cuban and a few more which I haven't tried. Then comes the quality of their cold cuts, meats and cheeses. They only use BOARS HEAD and everything is sliced right there in front of you. Besides having all the traditional deli staples such as Pastrami, Corned Beef, Roast Beef, Honey Glazed Ham, Oven Roasted Turkey etc, you will also find some Boars Head specialties like Cajun Turkey Breast and Jerk Turkey. They have a large selection of fresh vegetables and toppings to choose from if you want to make your own "custom" sub. I recommend choosing one of their 15 or so "signature" subs which are listed on the board right above the counter. My top 5 subs, in no particular order, is the Brisket with cole slaw & BBQ sauce on a baguette; the Reuben; the Prosciutto di Parma with mozzarella & olive oil; the Spanish Chorizo; and the Pastrami (either hot or cold). I always see 2 or 3 people working the deli, I guess that's what keeps the short line constantly moving. I highly recommend you check them out next time your in the mood for a true deli style sandwich. I've also been to some of their other Downstairs locations and the deli quality is consistent. I believe they are all family owned & operated. They also have a VERY impressive selection of craft beer. TIP: Next time your having friends over the house for a get together or to watch a game, buy a few different 12" subs and tell them to cut each sub into 5 or 6 pieces. These make an excellent party platter.

    This is just half. Boardhead prosciutto, real mozzarella, balsamic vinegar, oil, basil. I threw in some spinach and spicy mustard.

    I was really looking forward to trying Jholano's in the Gables, after seeing many positive reviews,…read morebut unfortunately our experience didn't live up to them. The space itself was small but clean. When my husband and I walked in, there were no other customers. The young lady behind the register was looking down at her phone and didn't greet/acknowledge us when we came in. Even once we were standing in front of the register, my husband said hello first, she looked up but still didn't greet us, just slightly grinned and waited for us to start ordering. When we did order we had to repeat ourselves three times because nothing was being written or entered as we ordered. I thought maybe she was new or this was one of her first jobs, but the whole interaction felt very disconnected. I ordered one of the egg sandwiches. The bread was fresh and had a slight sweetness that I actually liked, but overall it was not anything I'd order again. My husband ordered the 6PM in Tuscany, which was around $26. Unfortunately, his sandwich was missing several of the listed ingredients. We hadn't requested any modifications, so after tasting it, we actually checked the menu again because something seemed off. The chicken cutlet had no crunch, the sandwich was bland, and was just missing so much he didn't even finish it. I really wanted to love this place because of all the great reviews I had seen. Maybe we caught the Coral Gables location on an off day, but between the service and the food not matching what was listed on the menu, this visit was unfortunately a disappointment. I genuinely wish Jholano's well, but based on the experience we had a couple of Sundays ago, I wont be rushing back.

They have a really good selection, and the breakfast sandwiches are filling and well made. It has that busy neighborhood feel, especially in the morning, which I actually like. Nothing fancy or trendy--just a solid, traditional bagel shop that knows what it's doing. Portions are good, service moves quickly even when they're crowded, and everything we tried was fresh.

To make it even more impressive, this was a SAME-DAY order, and they were able to accommodate me without hesitation! When I arrived to pick up the order, it was an absolute MONSOON outside. I was on my way to visit a client and had ordered two large sandwich platters and a huge bag filled with potato salad and coleslaw. I pulled into the very convenient 10 minute pick up parking right outside the restaurant, and two incredibly courteous gentleman brought the entire order straight out to my car. Talk about service! Now for the food... My client RAVED about everything! They thought I was the bees knees for spoiling them with such delicious sandwiches and sides, which made the whole experience even better. I ordered them turkey, ham, and (thanks to you a last-minute decision) tuna sandwiches. And surprisingly, the tuna was the STAR, even among the meat eaters! They said everything was delicious, but several commented that the tuna was some of the best they've ever had. And when it came to the sides, the potato salad and coleslaw were officially TIED. They loved them both! Between the incredible food and exceptional service, Bagel Emporium deserves an A+ and a 12/10! Thank you to the entire team for making this such an easy and wonderful experience from beginning to end. You officially have a customer for life!

    Think of Mainzer's Deli as a Bavarian bodega. Sure, you could do a bit of grocery shopping, but…read morelet's be honest, you're here to hunt down oddball snacks and niche sundries you didn't know you needed. Open since the '70s, these Pinecrest pioneers launched their Central European mini‑market as a side hustle, all while earning their keep as classical musicians. That kind of multitasking deserves a drink. Start smart with a refreshment like Almdudler. The closest American parallel is a love child of Dr. Pepper and Sprite, but that sells it short. This Austrian classic is a bit herbal thanks to elderflower and sage, yet snaps with lemon zest, and happily moonlights as a mixer for beer, wine, vodka, and even cold brew. Honorable mentions go to Apfelschorle (apple juice spritz) and the pride of Salzburg's suds, Stiegl blond lager. Whether you believe the lozenge or the tea came first, Ricola Schweizer Kräutertee, an instant herb tea, will knock a cold flat on its back. In my home, it completes an anti‑illness trinity alongside Advil and Vicks VapoRub. Mainzer's also stocks a tight but thoughtful lineup of German personal‑care creams and cosmetics, because sometimes your sinuses and skin are on red alert. The deli slings cold sandwiches stacked with Schinken (ham) or Gelbwurst, a pork‑and‑veal bologna seasoned with ginger, nutmeg, and white pepper that can be customized with lettuce, tomato, onion, mayo, or mustard. Hot subs come piled onto rolls with sauerkraut and mustard. The Brat and Weisswurst lead the sales, but the Double-Smoked BLT remains a point of almost defiant pride for the Mainzer clan. I could keep waxing poetic about all the shelf treasures, but this women‑owned piece of Pinecrest history demands boots on the ground. Dive into the unusually deep selection of chocolates and marzipan, debate the finest ketchup for a currywurst, and boldly snack where few South Floridians have snacked before.

Lots of Lox Deli in my opinion is a jewel located in the South Dade area of Miami, nestled in the Pinecrest / Palmetto Bay area. Truth be told there are not many traditional Jewish deli's left in South Dade so we are very lucky to have them. This is a family owned business that has been turning out great New York style sandwiches and deli items for many years. You all know how much I love local businesses and we really need to support great local businesses as much as possible. One particular item they have on the menu which is not found in many places is their deli style Tongue Sandwich. Yes I know it sounds weird but it is absolutely delicious and very hard to find. Most of their food items such as their soups and slaws are for the most part home made on premises which means they are always fresh. The service and atmosphere as you can imagine is true to form, a little noisy with everyone talking and enjoying their food and the servers really do a great job of getting things going for you as quickly as possible. On this occasion, I ordered the vegetable soup and the hot pastrami sandwich, piled high with awesome pastrami. As expected, it was excellent and very fresh. Outside of the menu, make sure to checkout the specials on the white board on the main wall, as they always have some items that are not on the menu on that board. Parking should not be a problem as they are located in a strip mall on US1 and their tends to be plenty available; however, they do get busy on weekends and lunch time so plan accordingly. Overall, Lots of Lox really does an amazing job and I if you like traditional deli style food I am sure you will too. Wishing you all a great deli experience! Enjoy and Bon Appétit mes amis!
