I never guessed that this spot at an airport terminal would actually taste good. I figured since there's so much Argentian/Cuban influence out in Miami, it's worth a shot. The cheese pastillo was good, the ham croquette was also delicious. Meat pie was also good as well. I'd definitely eat here again when I'm at the airport. read more

Excellent, friendly service plus really great empanadas. We also enjoyed the fresh guava juice. A wonderful surprise to experience such a welcoming, family atmosphere at an airport food court. Well done! read more

Quality airport food. I especially liked that this location is located outside of the terminal area so you can grab some food while waiting for a flight to arrive or for your ride to come. I got the Ham and cheese French toast and sat in the cafe area for about two hours and didn't have any trouble. The staff were super friendly and even cleared my trash after a while. Highly recommend this place over my alternative which was waiting in baggage claim for hours! read more

Terrible experience, never going back and absolutely don't recommend this place. My fiancé and I went for some coffee, while he was waiting for the coffee, I removed my mask for a minute and the supervisor or waiter yelled at me for having the mask removed, I understood and put it back. Few minutes later, while we were drinking the coffee at the table, he yelled me back for having the mask down with a horrible attitude. I respectfully asked him if I was not allowed to drink coffee there, since I wasn't sure about the store requirements. He reacted very angrily and started yelling more and treating us like delinquents. We totally understand and obey the safety rules, but we don't agree with the person actitud and disrespectful behavior. If you are not able to treat your customers kindly, even when asking for rules observation, then this is not the right job for you! read more

The Cuban sandwich was bland ham with not a whole lot of flavor. Add to that the sandwich just fell apart in the box I ended up just eating the meat with a knife and fork. It all looks appetizing but at least the Cuban sandwich is not worth the money. read more

Gilbert's Bakery - The Cuban "sandwich" with the bread pulled away from the meat. The sandwich just fell apart so I ate the meat with a fork. Not great. - Bakeries Near Me - Miami, Florida

Disgusting food, terrible customer service. Do yourself a favor and go around the corner to McDonalds.

I looked them up on Yelp, called to see if they had key lime pie. The girl couldn't understand me handed the phone to someone else who barely understood me and answered "yes" she never bothered to ask if we knew it was inside the airport. The YELP link to their address shows it's under a bridge by the airport. It was fun. read more

4 "airport food" stars - the ham and cheese quiche is really tasty and a great value for the cost (less than $5). They also have tasty Cuban coffee. If you need breakfast in terminal H, this is a good option. read more

The manager of this place has the worst customer service. He needs an urgent training on how to talk to customers. The picture of his badge was because in a really bad manner he told me to do a complain about him. But after I took the picture I request a number to call, and his answer was "go and find it in the internet". All this was just because they did not have change to give me and I suggest that it is they responsibility to keep change. I can understand you can ram out of singles, but there are ways to explain the situation. Of course he did not choose the best way, saying to me he will not talk to me. On the other hand one ladies try to keep it calm to him. Hope the owner can take care of him. He's not good for to take the rol of manager. Probably he will work ok in the kitchen where are not customers there. read more

I was so happy to find this place at MIA this past Saturday morning. I couldn't spend 4 hours in Miami without a Cubano, so I had one for breakfast here while waiting for my flight back to DCA via PHL. The quality was outstanding (especially for an airport sandwich counter/deli). The bread was fresh and so was the meat. They had several other kinds of sandwiches here that were in the counter window that were made fresh as well. I am sure I will grab a sandwich from here again when I am flying through in a couple weeks. read more

Don't waste your hard earned money. No filling in their pastries and the breading is stale! I went back and asked for another and was told they're all like that. They must be use to people complaining. Anyway what do they care, good chance you'll be boarding a flight so by the time you see what you got you'll be gone and they don't have to deal with you. read more

Gilbert's Bakery - Where's the meat??? - Bakeries Near Me - Miami, Florida

Outstanding service!!!! My husband was flying his last flight with American Airlines from Miami back to LAX. As a surprise I wanted to get him a cake, big enough to share with his crew members. I called Gilbert's Bakery and not only did they make a beautiful cake for me that morning, but they delivered it to the gate where the plane was departing from. Since I wasn't at the gate yet to receive the cake, they made sure the Gate Agent knew it was a surprise for the Captain of the flight. Gilbert's then sent me a text letting me know the cake was delivered, the agent and crew knew it was a surprise and they hide the cake in the airplane where my husband wouldn't see it until we got there. He was stunned that I had gotten the cake to the plane without him knowing about it. Thank you again Gilbert's Bakery, for making my husband's retirement flight that much more special. read more

I must have waited in line for 20 minutes to buy a bottled soda and pre made cheese plate. It takes so long to make each customer a coffee. They are super chummy with the pilots and flight staff and let them cut in line ahead of you to make them their specials. read more

Worst place i ever been to... Two ladies that work at the one located at terminal J were extremely rude. Bad service, bad quality, rude people... Do not go to this awful place read more

Cuban coffee! Need I say more? If you are on the South terminal at the airport this is your place to get good Cuban coffee outside of TSA. I have not had the pastries so I can't comment on that. The warm stuff you have to make sure that it is hot before you leave. Numerous times my warm papa rellena was ice cold even after being heated. read more

I really wanted to give this place a higher rating, but I can't. The service was good but the food wasn't good at all. I ordered 2 croquetas & it tasted like straight flour & h2o, barely any ham inside. It was not cooked all the way. The empanadas were worse, maybe its cause I am used to having them a different way but the meat had no flavour, it was SUPER bland. The coffee was good but other than that, I will choose to stay away. read more

The best cortadito in Miami, terminal j, prepaid in the morning for the manager, great attention for the staff . Thanks so much. If you want to take a great coffe go to outside terminal j, before check point. read more

Stay away! We bought a strawbery pie. Strawberies were couple days old. Asked to return it, the guy took it, tried, said "its fine" and kept it for himself. No money back, no other pie in exchange, no original bad pie. We left empty handed. We can debate the quality, but why would u still our pie... read more

Well well well what a surprise. Again a bakery that runs out of pastries. This has happened so many times I list count. How can they run out of pastries. They need to hire a better manager. They are getting ridiculous. Well they just made money to la Carrera cause that's where I'm heading.....unbelievable. This was the one at J at the main terminal. Before the checkpoints. No pastelitos de carne.... read more

This bakery is located in the food court between Terminals J and H. I was super surprised to find food here that was so tasty. We ordered Chicken Empanadas and Spinach Quiche. I cannot express how good these are. Tell them to make it very hot. This is 5 star food. I wish I could take the business to my town. Awesome Yum!!! read more

I was dying for one last cafecito before leaving Miami, and another bite of key lime pie. This place was the answer I was looking for! Whether on your way in or out of the area, if you're in the Delta terminal it's worth a stop. read more

I'm glad I stopped by! The food was a treat, and the ladies at the restaurant were a delight! Be sure to grab a meal here- you'll be happy you did! read more

Just had the worst chicken croquetas and ham and cheese sandwich. Dripping in grease. Gilberts is well known for their croquettas, but these must have been fried twice. When I told the employees they didn't say a word, they just nodded their heads. Stay away from this airport restaurant. read more

I went to Terminal J in Miami International Airport today to accompany my son who was taking a flight to Baires in "Aerolineas Argentinas". Let me make a point cleat: my son was born in NYC and I have been living in the USA for almost forty years. We are no tourists, get it? When It was our turn to place the order with the cashier ,she ignores us olympically and keeps talking to a co-worker who was on her right side. I stopped enumerating our order and I said calmly: " when you have some time for us we will continue talking to you." She then faced me for the first time and said: " I don't need to look at your face. I got all your order."She did not and I had to repeat it. Then she started ranting about being mistreated, bla-bla-bla,the usual false victimizaton BS of "certain" Hispanics in the infamous "Banana Republic of South Florida". Listen my dear "Gilbert", if you don't like our kind then do not set up shop where we will be calling at your counter. WISE UP. By the wsy the "doppio macchiato" I got was simply perfect...What a pity I am not welcome there. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to the Gilbert and Yelp people too. Dr. Laplume read more

It would get zero stars if I had the option. This is a really poor representation of Gilberts and cuban food in general. My croquetas and cuban toast came out of the refrigerator and they nuked it in a subway style microwave. Couldn't even tell the difference between the ham and chicken croquetas which looked more like mystery meat taquitos. Had to toss the stale toast.... wish this terminal had a Versailles/La Carreta because they never disappoint... Sadly, the McDonald's next to it would have been a better option. read more

Good Cuban coffee in terminal J/H. Get the cortadito with sugar. Plus the ham croquettas were toasty and the ladies at the counter were really friendly. By airport standards this place is great- especially if you are craving yummy Cuban food and La Carreta is in a different terminal. read more

Well, my family travels a lot and our terminal is close to this bakery. We come here every time because it's the nearest place with food around (and we're always late and hungry). I have to say every single thing my family and I have tried at this bakery has been a disappointment. Everything looks good and savory but as soon as you actually bite into it, you wish you hadn't. We basically finish eating just because we feel bad about throwing away the food and we only come back in hopes that they'll improve their cooking. It's misrepresents the Cuban cuisine, making something which commonly is so delicious, something unpleasant. And don't get me started about how high the prices are. Thumbs down! read more

I have not had coffee anywhere close to this quality since I left Italy 10 years ago. The Cortadito is AMAZING, Sooo good. The cashier described it to me as "the whiskey of coffee", and she was right, so strong, yet so smooth. I am a new fan of Cuban coffee! As a side note, the salad Nicoise was also very good, cold and refreshing! read more

I am completely against giving negative comments because I believe positivity prevails, therefore if there is nothing good to say, then just don't say much at all. However, this place is just utterly distasteful due to its food quality and high prices, so I felt the need to warn those who were about to order from this place and end up with a stomach ache right before boarding a flight.. I had a sandwich with ham and pork, I believe it was called a Cuban sandwich , but tasted nothing like one. I've lived im Miami since I was 2 years old and know exactly what a Cuban sandwich should taste like. I love the cuban culture and embrace their food and traditions, sadly they'd be discouraged to know this place is giving them such a bad name. Unbeknownst to me everything is warmed in a microwave, had I known this I would have just purchased a bottled water. Even the croquettes were nuked and soggy. Yuk, yuk, yuk!! Consider yourself warned. read more

This coment is about the complement of mr fausto, i was looking at his page and You make that in every places , i was there with food stamps of Air France is fair and tell the truth because they were already eleven and offered to sell us to carry not lie, I remember his last words were that you were convicted and had no police afraid of them were very decent to you that the threatened, his family looked embarrassed by their behavior. Is very funny. read more

I got a rum cake and pastry with strawberries on top and vanilla filling in a cracker crust. The rum cake was ok, but you could tell was on its last leg. The strawberry pastry a different story. After walking to terminal H6 I opened it and it had fruit flies. Now, we all know that fruit flies come at the end of the life of the food. They saw this and sold it to me anyway. I paid $5.89 plus tax. Don't eat here, don't waste your MONEY!!!! read more

So I'm at the airport to see my mom off to Argentina again due to the passing of my grandmother. We decide to get a cortadito and pastelito Gilberts Bakery in the airport. What a mistake! They ran out of pastelitos and the cortadito was cold and full of sugar. I order an empanada and and they nuke it. It's cold on the inside and soggy on the outside. My sister orders American coffee and they don't have any. The guy at the register asks another employee if they should make some and she says no. She orders and espresso and had to throw it out! It was awful! Two other customers complained about the coffee as well. They have 4 employees working a counter and the coffee took forever and the empanada took 8 minutes to "Nuke. Worse coffee and food ever!!!! In fairness the young man at the register was super nice and courteous. Don't eat at gilberts in the airport. Next time La Carreta read more

Service with an attitude, wrong order and probably the worst coffee! Welcome to Miami

A bit costly due to the fact it's at the airport but great pastries and cortadito is a must.

Best Cuban coffee on the go at MIA. Also, same quality goods you'll find in their normal bakery's.
