Macita restaurant located in Cutler Bay ( Miami) has the most delicious empanadas. Accompanied with a tangy salsa and cilantro sauce. I don't compare this restaurant's empanadas with any other place . It is always packed but reservations are not necessary . The seafood options are a must to try. Although it offers a large selection of Colombian meals. One can expect to leave fully satisfied. bocadillo con queso and ajiaco with avocado - read more

Always ready for a full Colombian breakfast when visiting Miami . Came here to meet up with family ,and they have great options for breakfast like omelettes (the Spanish version) with potatoes, and the meat empanadas were fresh and not greasy at all. Some servers are great and kept checking up on us to make sure we had everything that we needed . If you come here don't forget to try all the natural juice , either with milk or water . Like mango and blackberry! read more

I've come to this place for many many years. The lunch service has always been a little slow. But when I tell you, these are probably some of the best Colombian empanadas and pan de Bono. It's definitely one of the best breakfast spots in the area. I have come here countless times just to order hot fresh pan de bono. It is the easiest that I have ever had, and I have eaten quite a few. Their empanadas are still very meaty, which I find in most places they have become very much more potato like the filling. Just know what to expect. If you're gonna sit down it's gonna take a while, but if you're running in for some bakery Items, you will get quick fast service and be delighted with what you get. read more

Nice local restaurant with great Colombian food and great pastries. We had dinner and it was delicious - calamari, salmon, churrasco beef, shrimp and rice, chicken and mushroom and the mixed platter with steak, pork belly and egg. Service was great - our wait person spoke almost no English and we spoke very little Spanish, but it all worked out great. read more

Placed a takeout order from Macita's on a Saturday afternoon, food was fresh and tasty. I had the Arepa de Choclo con Queso and it was one of the best Colombian Arepa's I've had. I also ordered the Sancocho de Carne de Res and it wasn't as great as I expected, but not a bad soup. My wife had the Bandeja Paisa con Carne Asada and this is THE plate to get. Great portions, a bit of everything, very tasty. Will order again! read more

Have been going to this Macita's since we moved to Cutler Bay área 11/2 years ago. Before that we would go to the Kendal location. It has always been a nice place to eat when craving Colombian but this last visit really disappointed. First, the service was sub par. Our waitress was not coming by to check on us. I was 1/2 done with my food before I was able to get her attention to order another drink. We were almost done eating when asked if we needed anything. She was not rude, she just did not take the time to come check if we wanted something else. I usually have dessert and coffee at the end but was so frustrated and concerned I was going to have to flag her down again that we just got the check and left. Now the food which has always been great this time not so great. My husbands fried fish had no taste and was over fried. My seafood rice had literally 2 pieces of shrimp, 2 calamari and a few pieces of fish it was just mostly rice with seafood flavor. Did not taste like the typical Colombian seafood rice. Unfortunately this is the closest Colombian restaurant to us but for future cravings I rather drive farther for a better experience. read more

I want to start my review by saying that I have been coming here for over nine years. I'm a very fair person and don't like to judge an establishment based on just one visit. The food at this place is always good. The service is absolutely awful. I recently ordered a soup on the phone and told them the one with the bone in it. They know what that means as I've been ordering it that way for years. When I pick up the soup it was ice cold. I drove back to the establishment and told them so that they could correct the mistake. This time they gave me a completely different soup. I didn't realize it until after I had gotten home. When I went back by this time, I'm furious because this is two trips back to the restaurant. The female manager had the audacity to argue with me and tell me that I don't know how to order. I explained to her that I always order the soup by saying the one with meat on a bone in it. It seemed like there was no accountability for the mistake. Just a bad attitude. I was shocked because I have been coming here for nine years. The food quality is always great and the service is hit or miss until today. I've had servers that are great. I've had other servers that completely. Ignore you and you have to track them down just to get a refill. The ambience in this place is good. I will not be eating here ever again because of the disgusting way that the manager treated me. If you're only interested in food and don't care about bad service then this is your place. However, if you care about food and service, you may want to find another Colombian restaurant. read more

Delicious Colombian food! Been here a few times before and guess never rated them. I've ordered delivery and the food is always good no matter how you order it! Prices are great for the amount of food given and staff is always friendly and professional. You can get a full Breakfast for $6.75 that includes.. Toast, code with milk, two eggs your way, sausage or ham, and house potatoes. The beef empanadas are good as well so make sure to try them out (: read more

Food took extremely long to be done and there were a total of 3 parties in the entire restaurant. I took my food home only to find out the steak was completely raw inside. I would go as far as to say rare temperature would have looked more cooked than this. I paid to finish cooking the food at home. At the end it wasn't even as good as I thought it would be. Not worth it. Gave it 3 stars bc the empanadas were good. La comida tardó mucho en estar lista y había un total de 3 mesas ocupadas en el restaurante completo. Lleve mi comida a casa solo para encontrar que la carne estaba totalmente cruda. Tuve que terminar de cocinarla yo en casa. Pague para hacer la mitad del trabajo yo y al final ni estaba tan rica. No valió la pena. Le di 3 estrellas porque las empanadas si estaban buenas. read more

Macita's Restaurant - Grate place for family. - Bakeries Near Me - Miami, Florida

I've been a customer at macita's for years and lately its been a little hit or miss. Whenever I'm craving authentic Colombian, I pop in and tonight my takeout experience was really great. The food was homey, satisfying and the portions are very filling. But the real stars are the Empanadas and Pan de Bono. The empanadas are perfectly golden and crisp on the outside and the filling is just delicious . They come with the BEST spicy side( picante) and this may be my favorite part. I could honestly drink the stuff on its own. The Pan de Bono are a classic and I could seriously eat 4 of these in one sitting. This place is a familiar favorite and really hits the spot on a good night. read more

Macita's Restaurant - Pan de Bono - Bakeries Near Me - Miami, Florida

Delicious Colombian food; Great variety and everything is always fresh. The service is consistently good. The prices are very reasonable. I guess the only downside I see is that most, if not all, of their wait staff speak only Spanish. Yes, I get it, this is Miami, but this is still the United States and I believe that if you are going to work in this country, you really need to learn the language. read more

Best colada before work, their arepas de choclo are the best! The service is excellent and quick

I used to love this place. The food was always on point. Today we went and it was a mess lol. We sat at the little four seater bar top and we almost had to beg for service. I don't think there was someone assigned to that area. Or that's the impression I got although there were others there who were being waited on. The place is extremely busy today, so it took about 45 minutes to get our bandeja paisa and appetizer. The beans were delicious as always, but the steak lacked flavor. We were thankful for the chimichurri sauce. I actually haven't been to this location in about 2 years, more recently I've been going to the location near the hammocks. For me their service is way better. read more

Es una lástima como se ha dañado la calidad del restaurante, llevo muchos años visitando el lugar y nunca había tenido una mala experiencia, pero las 2 últimas veces que he visitado macitas us1 la carne no ha sido tan rica (como anteriormente) parece que la hacen en la Misma plancha, junto con el pescado y todo lo demás, me sabía a pescado, nada de sabor a un rico churrasco o carne asada, ojalá que el manager pueda solucionar eso, en cuanto a servicio excelente read more

Masitas I was really counting on you and your calentado to help me with my hangover and you let me down. I have not been here for a while. And there seems that there have been changes and not for the better. I ordered the calentado with chorizo and fried eggs and a cafe con leche. Their cafe con leche used to be the best I had ever had...used to be. We were brought a mug full of milk with the coffee on the side. There was not enough room to add the coffee and it ended up being weak when you were finally able to add some coffee. The rice and beans were mushy...super mushy and the fried eggs were fried hard. Need to find another hangover go to place. read more

We have been coming here for years. The best part of the dining is our lovely server, Lena. Husband had camerones enchilados. He said they skimped on the rice and it could have been hotter. I had churasco with no complaints Back in da day it was cozy and very family oriented. The menu was a book and the food was amazing! The decor was lovely. I'm sad that that the owner (sold) went corporate and now the vibe has changed. It's still a great neighborhood joint! Check it out if you are down south and want a little Colombian cuisine! PS: Live music Friday and Saturday and Sunday afternoon. read more

My daughter had gone to eat with friends a couple weeks ago and raved about how amazing it was so when I took her to do her eyebrows a couple days ago at a place inside the same shopping center as this restaurant, I knew I had to stop and get some pan de bono and empanadas Colombianas. As soon as you walk in, you smell all the aromas. I went right to the bakery area BUT I couldn't help looking at all the dishes being brought out by the servers. The food looked amazing and the portions were pretty big so I called the hubby and asked if he wanted to get something for dinner. Of course he said "hell yeah" so I ordered two Bandeja Paisa con Carne Asada and four of us shared the food. That is how big the portions are. The chicharrones weren't as crispy as I like them BUT the carne asada was phenomenal. Very tender, juicy and flavorful. Forgot to mention that the pan de bono's and .empanadas de pollo were delicious. read more

Macita's Restaurant - Bandeja Paisa con Carne Asada - Bakeries Near Me - Miami, Florida

We've ordered from here a few times and the food is always amazing, but this time we went to eat the food in person at the restaurant. We usually order the Bandeja Paisa, so I ordered that again and also empanadas, pan de bono, and totstones with meat and cheese on top. I also ordered a mint lemonade which really caught my eye on the menu and it did not disappoint! The appetizers were so amazing, the empanadas were fresh, the pan de bono was nice and soft and warm. The tostones with meat cheese and sweet chili sauce were so delicious and different. I enjoyed the combination of flavors. The mint lemonade was FRESH! They literally blended the mint leaves into the lemonade while we were sitting there. That really made the whole meal for me. The bandeja paisa was phenomenal! Fresh and flavorful, the steak was perfect medium rare like I asked, the chicharron was perfect, juicy and crispy. The rice and beans were perfect, the plantains were soft and sweet and flavorful. Lastly the sausage was crisp and juicy as well. Dining here in person is a much better experience than ordering as the food is hot and fresh and you can get the full culinary experience. I recommend everyone should come here and try this amazing food and wonderful service. read more

Service here is outstanding! Seated right away. Drink orders taken quickly and specials added to the menu went over. Complimentary hot bread given within minutes of seating. So far so very good. Inside is super cute, spacious, even has a corner spot that looks like a little cafe within a restaurant. There was alot of traffic coming in and out so we knew the food had to be good. For starters we had the arepa choclo. It a corn arepa with a thick slice of cheese on top. I'm use to the arepa with cheese in between but this was just as good with a tad bit of sweet. Hubby had a Colombian soda and I went with their fresh squeezed lemonade with mint (this is made with limes instead of lemons). This was so refreshing and not to sweet but really good. Hubby had the traditional plate of the bandeja paisa (comes with steak, sausage, rice, red beans, fried egg, arepita, and a huge chicharron) it was so much food he took home a doggy bag. Being that I wasn't to hungry I ordered an appetizer as my meal. So I went with the tostones with shredded beef atop. It was good but I didn't care so much for the sweet sauce they added. I just asked for their hot sauce, covered it with that and I enjoyed, only ate 2 so added the third to be taken home. The food and service were really great and everything tasted well. Would definitely come here again! read more

Great food, with that homemade flavor. A little slow at times, but their service is good overall and worth the wait. As far as ambiance - it's almost like being back in the homeland. Definitely worth coming to for great Colombian food. read more

I went with an open mind and the food was not so good and the service was great until the server disappeared on us. We had to ask for a to go box and the check what is that and then on top of all that they included the tip and ask up if we wanted to leave for tip. I will never go here again everything is so expensive and poor service. read more
