    Talk about an underrated deli. Family owned and operated in the back corner of a garage. This is like the NY soup kitchen straight out of Seinfeld with out the lip service. They will do pickup or delivery and my favorite go to has been their Grilled Chicken in whole-wheat wrap with everything. I might get a soup too, but that's usually it. The chicken is Hilal, not that I'm Muslim not my colleague is and it's been a way to connect with him when we walk to grab our food to bring it back to the office. Folks are friendly and it's basically What You See Is What you get. They'll let you taste the food. I don't stick around to eat there since it's a garage after all, but there is a table and you can watch the soaps that are usually aired on your lunch hour if that is what floats your boat.

    Do you work in the gables? Looking for a quick meal? Eli's is the spot. I eat here at least twice a week. It's fast, good, and great prices. Can't go wrong with a Cuban bread egg sandwich toast for breakfast or a tuna melt wrap! Both under $6 bucks! And delicious

    I love their menu here! There is an absolutely amazing variety of delicious sounding sandwiches,…read morewraps, salads, and breakfast options. Not to mention the amazing looking pastries and coffees when you first walk in. I ordered the steak sandwich and have no complaints. The vegetables were roasted perfectly, the bread had a great toasted crunch to it, and there was a good amount of steak in my sandwich. In addition, the sauce that they put on the bread was so good! The portion size was great and I find the price point here to be pretty fair (~$21 after tip). It was really busy when we came in but there was still some seating open for us and we were seated right away. The food came out quickly and the staff is very friendly. I love how the food both looks delicious and tastes amazing as well! You don't have to sacrifice on flavor or price to get the aesthetic Instagram picture! Interior is clean and very welcoming. A great place to come with a smaller group to catch up and get a reasonably priced lunch that doesn't cut corners on quality or taste.

    The food was good, it just took a while to come out. I guess since it was a Sunday morning, it was…read morea bit busy as well. We had some coffees and they were both great. I enjoyed the overnight oats which had pumpkin seeds, coconut flakes and some dried banana chips. It was very healthy and filling. My brother had the waffles which had berries and a vanilla bean creme! We obviously were too excited and didn't get a chance to take a pic prior to eating. Overall, we had a nice time here and will probably be back but on a different day where it's not too busy. Parking is available in the back or on the street parallel, you have to pay through the pay by phone app. I can't wait to come back and try the pancakes next time!

    This is such a good Convenience Store…read more Not only do they have a great assortment of wine and beer - but they have the most delish subs. I love boar's head meats, and that is what they have here at Downstairs. I am a sucker for an italian sub, but reading other reviews I think I'm going to have to try other options soon. You can get your subs on a wrap or croissant, and those options sound amazing too. They have coffee and grab and go pastries because, Miami. Service is friendly, and quick. The parking is limited, so I'm sure during lunch time it may get a little hectic to get in and out. Will return for sandwich fixes soon!

    Downstairs is like a convenience store on steroids lol! They have a tiny breakfast/lunch spot you…read morecan grab a salad or a sandwich in for lunch. They also have plenty of breakfast items or snacks including empagnadas, croquetta, pastries, and eggs. They sell hard to get craft beers and wine as well so if you need alcohol then pick some up here. There's plenty of parking spots outside for easy access. Once you step inside it's clean, friendly, and hospitable. They are always stocked up on everything and have a variety of flavors which makes them stand out for energy drinks, sparkling water, nut mixes, and pretty much anything you'd find at a convenience store. The staff is friendly, attentive, and gives fast service even when extremely busy. Don't think about it.....just come here and see for yourself! Great job Downstairs! I'll be back again soon.

    great spot to grab a bite in coral gables! i went here on a friday afternoon around 2PM and there…read morewas no wait. they have a large selection of sandwiches, pancakes, french toast, and latin american inspired foods. i got the Zeus ($23) and really enjoyed it. the portion of skirt steak is generous and i really loved all the different flavors going on, from the sweetness of the plantains to the tanginess of the steak sauce. one of the better sandwiches i've had in a while especially for the price! and the service was quick and friendly, i sat at the bar and my bartender was great. food came out in 8 minutes. this is a spot i'm definitely coming back to! their drinks look fantastic, i have my eyes set on that pistachio latte.

    Bistro Cafe definitely felt a little overpriced at first glance, but the portion sizes and flavor…read morehelped justify it. The servings were huge and everything tasted fresh and well made. My husband ordered the Basic Omelette with ham, onions, peppers, tomatoes, and mushrooms, and they absolutely loaded it with veggies. It was packed with flavor and very satisfying! I ordered the churrasco gyro and it was delicious! Generous portions of meat, fresh veggies, and plenty of tzatziki. The salads were also surprisingly good with just the right amount of dressing. A few disappointments: the potatoes are fried rather than roasted, there's no gluten-free bread option, and they don't offer decaf coffee. Overall though, the food was flavorful, filling, and worth trying if you're looking for hearty breakfast/brunch portions! We will be back.
