    Tri-Fecta and Bacado Omelet
    Jasmine J.

    Love it the food was great and price was less than $30. Love eating here! The place was basically empty so me and my friend didn't feel overwhelmed. The service was also great as well.

    First time visiting Miami Lakes' first watch location, it didn't disappoint. The restaurant menu is similar to the other locations and the food tasted as great as I remembered. We ordered the breakfast omelette and the lemon pancakes, our dishes were excellent and exceed our expectations. I was able to reserve a table with the Yelp app so we didn't have to wait when we arrived. Service was friendly and hospitable. We enjoyed the hot and freshly made coffee! Parking available

    Food and service was good like always. Lavender lemonade cocktail is refreshing. Food was good as well, bacon was a little over cooked this time.

    Biscuits and gravy and what's left of the blueberry lemon cornbread.

    Thank goodness Dennys was closed! Was gonna go to it for convenience sake but luckily a quick search took us to First Watch! The Blueberry Lemon cornbread was to die for (seasonal special)! I had the biscuits and gravy which was super delicious Biscuits were fluffy and gravy was tasty and light. Wait staff were friendly and attentive. Will definitely look for this place when in Miami again!

    Million dollar bacon

    Love this place it's become a favorite I've been to different locations this is my first time here the kale tonic is a must, also love the Bloody Mary with the bacon in it, my daughter and I shared the avocado toast with egg whites and we shared the million dollar bacon we also shared the French toast all of it was delicious and I definitely always recommend!! The place is always loud just a word of warning , the service can be ok depending on the server.

    My review is solely based on service. We sat for a bit before we were greeted. Quickly given our drinks and ordered an Avocado Toast to start. We let our server know that we would be sharing. Our appetizer touches the table and he walks away... no plates or extra napkins. Our server didn't come touch the table to check and see if anything was needed. I had to ask another server for plates. But they never brought them. Our food then came, so I asked the food runner for plates for our appetizer. We ate our meal and app at the same time. Our server then came to ask if our food was good. Nothing else after that... he came to grab our plates then asked if we wanted the check. Sadly, I was disappointed with my visit. I can say the food was great & fresh. But unfortunately, service was terrible!

    Chicken pesto bowl

    I was in the area Wednesday after an early morning meeting, and decided to stop by for a bite. It's located in a strip mall right off the Palmetto with plenty of parking so it is pretty convenient. As the name implies, it is a breakfast and early lunch spot "cousin" of that famous chain 'D'iner but with a few healthier plates and as I noticed on the menu yesterday, some cocktails. I will have to come back for those though (maybe a lazy Sunday brunch). That rounds up to 4 stars. The interior is a little more modern-looking and almost aerier than its competitors, and the Miami Lakes location has some outside seating. The hostess was pleasant & energetic, and my waiter pretty attentive. For my bites, I enjoyed their chicken pesto quinoa "power bowl". Served with a quinoa base, chicken breast, tomatoes, and a smattering of greens it weas healthy and tasty. I undid the healthy and satisfied my sweet tooth with a Belgian waffle with berry compote. Since it had been a busy morning, the fact they had bottomless coffee is definitely a plus.

    For a chain, it's great. Frittata rustica and million dollar bloody are my go to. The location is a little sketch, but other than that it's a good place to grab a bite. Just go in with chain expectations and it won't disappoint.

    Came for breakfast with a couple of friends for the first time and had an overall good experience. Our server was one of the best servers I've had in a long time. He was very attentive and apologized for the long wait. I can see how some people would be upset about the 30 min wait to get a table and prob at least another 30-40 min wait to get the food once we ordered. However, this was not an issue for me because I was just looking for a place to catch up with my friends While enjoying a meal. Now for the important part--the food! I tried their classic breakfast option that comes with 2 eggs, bacon, chicken sausage or turkey sausage, potatoes and toast. Everything came out great and was a good deal for $12. We also tried the hot chocolate and though it's a water hot chocolate, the waiter recommended adding the whip cream and that really did the trick--specially in one of Miami's coldest morning of the year. I'd recommend it if you're looking for a good breakfast option and you're not in a rush.

    Rotten fruit bowl .
    Jose P.

    This is unacceptable , for the amount of money that we pay to eat here , you can't get 10 little fruits correct ? Then when you let them know , your the bad one . Breakfast for 2 and the bill is $80 plus dollars is waaaaay to expensive . This place is overpriced and overrated .

    We've been coming to Trigo Café for years, and it has become one of our family's favorite places…read more Julio, one of the owners, always makes us feel so welcomed and truly treats everyone like family. Our favorite time to visit is Sunday brunch, especially since they have a special menu. We recently came for Father's Day, and even though Julio was celebrating as a father himself, he was working incredibly hard to make sure every guest had a great experience. You can really see how much heart and dedication he pours into his business. As expected on Father's Day, there was a bit of a wait, especially since we were a larger party, but none of us minded. To thank us for our patience, Julio generously brought out croquetas for the table on the house, which was such a thoughtful gesture. I can't recommend Trigo Café enough. The food is consistently excellent, the service is warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere feels like home. While brunch is our favorite, their lunch and dinner are just as great, and the new tapas and wine area they recently added is a fantastic addition. If you haven't been, you're missing out!

I stopped by after the lunch rush to have a hialeah heat sandwich was the perfect version of typical cuban sandwich with a kick. I loved the touch of spicy in my sandwich. I also had a cafe bom bom that was really good. Loved the condensed milk. The girl who served me was very attentive to me when I visited and helped me with any questions i had; made me feel very welcomed. When i couldn't finish my coffee she packed it up for me in a to go cup.

    Once again, we would like to express our most sincere gratitude to Mayor's Cafe of Miami Lakes…read more Today, we proudly picked up a $500 donation check, representing 20% of the proceeds from our fundraiser held this past Friday, September 11th. Our gratitude is genuine, and the impact this support has on our local autism community is even greater. This was much more than a fundraiser. It was a beautiful social experience for our families and our children. It was an evening where one of our wonderful sponsors worked hand-in-hand with us to create a welcoming, inclusive, and enjoyable environment for everyone. Our families came together knowing they could relax, enjoy wonderful food, and simply spend time with people who understand one another. The waitstaff and kitchen team were incredibly kind, friendly, and attentive, always doing their best to accommodate our children and families. There was laughter, conversation, friendship, and of course, delicious food! From the amazing cheeseburgers to the enormous chicken sandwiches, everything was absolutely delicious! For many of our families, daily life can sometimes be challenging and stressful. Having the opportunity to sit together, enjoy dinner, laugh, talk, and feel completely accepted in an inclusive environment is truly priceless. To all the owners and employees of Mayor's Cafe, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. You left such a positive impression on our families, and we truly hope we can do this again next year! And there is even more to be thankful for! In addition to the $500 donation, which will be used toward one of our Hope for Autism Community Group's free activities for our families, Mayor's Cafe is also generously donating $200 in gift cards in support of our Hope for Autism "A Night in Paris" 19th Annual Gala. Your generosity, kindness, and commitment to our autism community mean more than words can express. THANK YOU, Mayor's Cafe, for opening your doors and your hearts to our families. May you all be blessed abundantly! With love and gratitude, Hope for Autism Community Group
