    This is going to be one of my two favorite public library. First of all is located in an area that I love which is Pinecrest and the parking was free, you know how much I love that! Second the service was fantastic everyone helped me and I feel super nice working there. And third, this library was very organized and I was able to work on the computer and then print as I usually do.

    This is BY FAR one of my favorite library branches ever. It shares a parking lot with Pinecrest community center and Pinecrest Gardens so it's buzzing with activity all around. The staff Is very friendly, they constantly Organize good events And it really carries the feeling of being for the community. They have a good selection of books, audio books, music and movies with computer stations also to get work done. The space has enough tables, work stations, and couches to fit your need. One advise though, keep in mind the shared parking lot when coming here if there's an event.

    A quiet place to read and cool off. Bring a hoodie for the freezing air conditioning. Pleasant staff.

    I'm a UM alum so I'm biased - the Richter library has many fond (and less fond) memories for me as…read morea student. The standout here is the Cuban Heritage collection, which is open to the public and has an amazing collection of lots of artifacts from Cuban history. Everything from the original daiquiri recipe to copies of ration cards. The collection also partners with the Freedom Tower. A wonderful resource for the community.

    Lots of mixed feelings about this place…read more Plenty of computers and floor space but oddly not enough tables and chairs. The study rooms are like freezers but midday on the second floor is an oven. Plenty of printers but the wifi is spotty. Recently the management changed study room policy greatly limiting the flexibility of group work- resulting in mostly empty rooms as opposed to the constant battle for them. The stacks are quiet but have terrible ambience and even more terrible internet connectivity. It can get a bit creepy at night as desperate study spot vultures circle the shelves behind you. Accidentally taking the elevator down to the M level is also reminiscent of a potential horror movie scenario with its locked cage gates and dimly lit narrow aisles. Nonetheless, the place is open 24/7 during finals and is a reliable place to surround yourself with people doing mildly academic things. You'll at least feel a little less guilty about not studying after sitting here for half the day. Try the music library or the law library for a better library experience. If you're just here to get books, Richter is just as good as any other. At the end of the day, Richter is a University Library which could be a lot worse and has a fair number of amenities, and at least- does it's job passably. More like a 3.5 but I'll round to 4 for effort!

    This is a review for their banh mi. I love the idea of having a banh mi and boba shop where you can…read moreorder and then browse books while waiting. I was happily surprised at the authenticity of the "OG viet deli" option. It came with ingredients like cha lua and head cheese. I also love pate and this sandwich was absolutely packed with it. It was finally topped with tiny red chillis instead of the jalapenos I usually see in the US which I prefer since the pack a spicy punch. Though the sandwich was definitely not as spicy as I'm used to. The bread is also way thicker than I'm used to but it was fresh. I could not eat it until a while later and yet because it was all cold cuts, the sandwich was still quite good. Overall very well put together and service was friendly. My one qualm is that it is way more expensive for banh mi than I'm used to so this would be more of a place to go if I wanted to treat myself.

    BANH Loves You, located inside a bookstore in Coconut Grove, is such a cool hidden gem. The vibe is…read moreunique and cozy, making it a great stop for coffee or a casual bite. I had the Vietnamese iced coffee, and it was really good--smooth, bold, and refreshing. We also tried the short rib sandwich with pho broth and the lemongrass grilled chicken sandwich (which I prefer), and both were packed with flavor. Fresh ingredients, great sauces, and definitely a spot worth checking out.
