I tried to pay cash and the rest debit card, and she gave me attitude about it. No set menu for eggs with your food, has to be from the kids menu (potential for disaster), no water and took a while to get food besides the croissants, tight spot to eat inside. Pros: Definitely fills you up, the croissants we ate had Pistachio/Almond/Nutella and they were all great, must-haves for sure, coffee was good, good place to eat something small and quick with your coffee, our server was not bad but could been better.

He reminds me of Carmy from The Bear--passionate, hardworking, detail-oriented, and completely dedicated to creating an amazing experience for every customer.

We originally stopped by Jealous Fork for what was supposed to be a quick breakfast…read more Instead, we found ourselves planning our next visit before we had even paid the check. On our first visit, we ordered the breakfast sandwich, the Banana Walnut Pancake, and two iced lattes (one with 2% milk and one with oat milk). Everything was outstanding. The breakfast sandwich was packed with flavor, the latte was perfectly balanced, and the Banana Walnut Pancake was on another level. The combination of caramelized banana, toasted walnuts, and their smoked maple syrup was absolutely RIDICULOUS. We loved it so much that we came back just two days later. This time, we shared the breakfast sandwich because we needed to save room for more pancakes. We ordered the Lemon Curd & Blueberry Pancake and the Brunch Still Hungover Pancake (their espresso-inspired pancake), and somehow they were even better than we expected. The Lemon Curd & Blueberry was bright, fresh, and perfectly balanced, while the Brunch Still Hungover was one of the most unique pancakes I've ever had rich coffee flavor without being overly sweet. That's the magic there for me, you might look at these pancakes and assume it's "too much" or might be overwhelming but the flavors are so perfectly balanced, it's a darn masterpiece. What really made the experience special, though, was the owner. He took the time to chat with us, explain the inspiration behind some of the menu items. You can tell this isn't just a restaurant to him, it's something he's genuinely passionate about. That passion comes through in every plate that leaves the kitchen. The staff was warm, welcoming, and seemed genuinely happy to be there. In a city where brunch spots come and go, Jealous Fork feels like the kind of place that earns regulars. At this point, our goal is simple: keep coming back until we've tried the entire menu. As I'm writing this in deciding to go back to try the burgers..BRB

I usually enjoy coming here for brunch because the food, service and ambiance are consistently…read moregreat, which is why today's experience was so disappointing. When my meal arrived, several items that were supposed to come with it were missing, including the arugula and avocado that accompanied the poached eggs with hollandaise. After I mentioned it, they took my plate back, but it came back with only a tiny portion of salad and just two tiny slices of avocado. Unfortunately, the rest of the meal didn't improve the experience. The bacon was completely burnt, the bread was very hard, and the eggs were cold by the time they were returned. After finishing my meal, I also had to wait quite a while for my check, even though the restaurant wasn't busy. This has always been one of my go-to brunch spots, so I was genuinely surprised by the decline in both the food quality and the service today. I hope this was just an off day because I've had much better experiences here in the past.

Going to cut to the chase here: what they say about their french toast is true. It is a decadent,…read morehefty piece of buttery french toast swimming in syrup with a little orange zest to counter that rich sweetness. The brioche is soaked but not mushy, and the outside crust is crispy. In short, order this! The place can get pretty packed so go early if you're planning to go with a group. I was only with one other person and we managed to get a seat at the counter - otherwise it would have been an hour wait at 10 am on a Sunday. Service is nice and fast. They also have a small parking lot outside!

Finally decided to give Tina Café a try after all the hype on social media, and I was honestly…read moreexcited to see what everyone was talking about. The first thing to know is that the café is very small with limited seating, so be prepared to wait if they're busy. I ordered Tina's French Toast, which is one of their most popular items. For $18, it wasn't anything out of the ordinary. The slice I received was much smaller than what I'd seen in photos and reminded me of regular sandwich bread. It was also slightly burnt and tasted like toasted bread with house-made syrup and a hint of orange zest. I also ordered the Sunny Side Scramble, which was simply scrambled organic eggs with Parmesan. I appreciate that they use organic eggs, but there wasn't anything particularly memorable about the dish. The BEC (bacon, egg, and cheese) sandwich was decent but, again, nothing that justified the price. My favorite item was probably the tallow potatoes. They were crispy, flavorful, and well-cooked, but the portion was so small that it felt like one tiny potato cut into quarters. In the end, I spent about $100 on four items and left feeling disappointed. None of the food was bad, but none of it stood out or lived up to the hype either. Experiences like this are why I don't automatically trust influencer reviews anymore. Too often they feel more like paid promotions than honest opinions. I believe a good reviewer should be willing to share both the good and the bad. I understand that negative reviews can impact a business, but honesty is what helps people decide where to spend their hard-earned money. I really wanted to enjoy Tina Café, but for me, it simply didn't live up to the expectations

Miami Biltmore Hotel is a historic place . A little history…read more: The hotel was designed by Schultze and Weaver and built in 1926 by John McEntee Bowman and George Merrick as part of the Biltmore hotel chain. The hotel's tower is inspired by the Giralda, the medieval tower of the cathedral of Seville Spain. When completed in 1926, the Biltmore became the tallest building in Florida at 315 feet holding the record as Florida's tallest building until 1928 when the Dade County Courthouse was built. At one time, the pool was the largest pool in the world and employed swimming instructor (and later Tarzan actor) Johnny Weissmuller. It served as a hospital during World War II and as a Veterans Administration Hospital and campus of the University of Miami medical school until 1968. The hotel was then abandoned for many years before again restoring operations as a hotel in 1987. In 1986, Miami Biltmore Hotel was designated a National Historic Landmark. In 1925, land developer George E. Merrick joined forces with Bowman-Biltmore Hotels president John McEntee Bowman at the height of the Florida land boom to build "a great hotel...which would not only serve as a hostelry to the crowds which were thronging to Coral Gables but also would serve as a center of sports and fashion." In January 1926, after ten months of construction at a cost of $10 million, the hotel opened and visitors included the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, Ginger Rogers, Judy Garland, Bing Crosby, Al Capone, and assorted Roosevelts and Vanderbilts as frequent guests. Franklin D. Roosevelt had a temporary White House office set up at the Hotel when he vacationed in Miami. Several months after the hotel opened, on September 18, the 1926 Miami Hurricane struck. While the hotel was undamaged, providing shelter for over 2000 survivors, the disaster signaled the end of the Florida land boom. Merrick's Coral Gables company declared bankruptcy on April 13, 1929, and Merrick's stake in the hotel was bought out by his partner, John McEntee Bowman in November 1929 for $2.1 million.Bowman resold the hotel in September 1931 to millionaire Henry Latham Doherty. A large part of the hotel's revenue in the 1930s came from aquatic galas. As many as 3,000 people would come out to watch the synchronized swimmers, bathing beauties, and alligator wrestling. Johnny Weissmuller, before he was known for his role in Tarzan, broke a world record at the pool. With the onset of World War II, the War Department took over the hotel, converting it to a 1200-bed hospital in November 1942. The building was transferred to the Army in 1946 and renamed Pratt General Hospital.Many of the windows were sealed with concrete, and the marble floors covered with government-issue linoleum. The hospital was transferred from the Army to the Veterans Administration ,in July 1947. Also the early site of The University of Miami's School of Medicine, Pratt General Hospital remained a VA hospital, with 450 beds, until a newer facility opened nearby in May 1968 and the building was vacated. In 1973, through the Historic Monuments Act and Legacy of Parks program, the City of Coral Gables was granted ownership control. The building remained unoccupied for almost 10 years. Then in 1983, the City oversaw its full restoration to be opened as a grand hotel. It was reopened on December 31, 1987 as a luxury hotel and resort. In June 1992, a multinational consortium led by Seaway Hotels Corporation became the new operators of the hotel under a long term management lease with the City of Coral Gables, and again made extensive refurbishments to the property. New lighting and telephone systems, repairs to the pool, furnishings, a complete guestroom renovation program and spa were completed. In February 2009, the hotel opened the Biltmore Culinary Academy, a recreational hands-on cooking school with classes for adults and children taught by the hotel's chefs. On April 18, 2012, the AIA's Florida Chapter placed the building on its list of "Florida Architecture, 100 Years, 100 Places. The hotel has been used as a setting in various movies and television programs, including Bad Boys, The Specialist, Shock Waves, CSI: Miami, Popi, and Miami Vice. If your into golf The hotel has an 18-hole, par 71, championship course designed by Donald Ross.Reopened in November 2007, following a $5 million investment, the course was restored and updated by Brian Silva.The original 1925 routing was retained, but all greens, tees, and bunkers were reconstructed and grassed to contemporary standards. The property again contracted Silva to provide additional improvements to the golf course in the summer of 2018. The course annually hosts the Junior Orange Bowl International Golf Championship. Come stay at the Biltmore , the rooms are spacious and unique in style . The Biltmore is a great place for dinner or brunch having a wonderful assortment. Very nice stores to shop too. The hotel has a 12,000-square-foot spa to relax .

The food was good, but way overpriced for Cuban food. Between 2 appetizers, 1 entree and 4 drinks it came out to $200+. These are south beach prices for a hidden location next to the airport. The service was probably the biggest downside. I got there 10 minutes before the rest of the party and the waiters had their back to me the entire time. No one came to offer water or anything to drink until I had to physically get up and flag someone down. They also charge a cover fee per person on the final check and don't mention it anywhere beforehand. We ordered a cocktail at first and the waitress told us we could add a double shot to it called "ya tu sabe". Turns out the shots were just separate. They don't go with any cocktail as it's it's own concoction. Would've been nice to have that explained prior to ordering. All in all it's a fun time if you're down to pay south beach prices for a local restaurant.

I do like that the menu pays a tribute to Miami as a city with most plates and drinks being named cities, famous sayings, or cliche words. The food itself was okay.

I ordered the Hialeah Gardens and found it to be yummy. We did not really order main plates but shared appetizers. We did order the arroz con huevo frito and found it to be yummy but again something that I could easily recreate at home. The plates were not anything that made you say WOW. If I were to rate this place on ambiance alone I would give it 4 stars. The restaurant is well designed and has neon signs with very famous sayings. Great photo spots! The customer service is great.
