I can tell this is an underrated spot, but it's a IYKYK kind of situation. Mina has been open downtown since 2016, kind of by Space. It's pretty hidden in a strip mall. They have parking!! The menu focuses on arepas, tequenos, empanadas, salads, and sandwiches. They have fresh juice too. They have good lunch specials and fun pop ups like burgers and tacos. Great spot for a laid back and affordable lunch.

I'm so happy I found this place! It's a small cafe in downtown that everyone needs to know about. Or not so I can always get a seat haha. It's very open inside with soft music playing. The staff was all very nice and super attentive. I got the half panini and half salad which was great portion sizes for the price. The boo got a cheeseburger and fries and said they were great! Also they partnered with a local run club and all proceeds of the featured drink went towards sponsoring the club to run the Chicago Marathon! We love community partnerships!

Caesar salad and fries, came with my lunch special.

I had planned to get my order to go, but when I saw there was plenty of space to sit, I decided to stay and eat. I got the mushroom burger from the lunch special, and it was really good. I had actually ordered the wrong thing on Uber Eats--I thought I had selected the lunch special but ended up just ordering a burger. Even though it was my mistake, the staff was so kind and still gave me the lunch special. I really appreciated how accommodating they were!

Steak Pepito

The restaurant is super quaint and clean, the service is very friendly as well. The food is absolutely amazing, I definitely recommend the Steak Pepito!

This placed is located in downtown miami! It's located downstairs from Park place. I lived there for about 8 years and this place has never let me down. The service is friendly and nice. The esthetics feel like a Internet cafe/Starbucks but it looks nice and clean inside. I usually only order Pepitos (chicken/steak...no ketchup & mustard with extra garlic and cilantro). The Pepitos are Amazingly delicious. I definitely recommend this place. You might want to try it now before the World center is built because the line may be out the door.

Special of the day

Mina is a short five minute walk from my office building so I often go for lunch and order the lunch special. They have a different lunch special everyday of the week, usually under $10. Great food, great service and great prices!! As my team and I got often we've become quite familiar with the staff which are super friendly and attentive!! Definitely recommend to anyone if you're in the area.

Crunchy Arepa and and Carne Mollda Empanada
Kyla K.

Came here for a quick lunch! Mina Bistro is super cute, and the staff was incredibly friendly, and gave me lots of drink and food recommendations. However the coffee was watered down, and the meal itself wasn't amazing, there just wasn't a lot of flavor, and not a lot of filling in the empanada.

Signature Pepito
Albert A.

Absolutely delicious. I ordered the Pepito with both steak and chicken, including all the toppings (onions, ketchup, mayo, mustard, garlic sauce, cilantro sauce, potato sticks, and cheese). First, this sandwich is loaded -- all of the toppings listed mix well and leave you with immense joy (seriously). Second, the chicken and steak were tender, cooked to perfection. Whenever I'm back in Miami, I'll be back here. Price: 4/5 Quality: 5/5 Quantity: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Atmosphere: 4/5

Divinas empanadas

Their Tuna melt was just ok. Also, the cashier was a little rude and she didn't speak English too well.

I used to come to Doggy's Arepa Bar on Coral Way all the time between 2015 and 2017, it was my…read moreabsolute favorite spot to eat. The food was consistently delicious and everything tasted incredible. Today I was walking through Coral Gables and got hungry, so I decided to give it another try after a couple of disappointments a few year back. We were greeted warmly and the service was outstanding, the staff was attentive, courteous, and always smiling, which really makes a difference. They started us off with complimentary arepitas de chicharrón that were excellent. I ordered the patacón de carne, which was packed with flavor, though the shredded meat came a little cold. We also got the patacón de pollo and we loved it. Both came with fresh avocado, tomato, and lettuce, and the green plantain was perfectly crispy. They also brought out their four house sauces (white, green, pink, and spicy) and every single one was fantastic. The portions were generous and more than enough for one person. I'm really glad my return visit was a positive experience. It reminded me why I loved this place so much, and I'll definitely be back to try more dishes.

Apple Maps shows this place is closed on Sunday after 4pm (which is not the case) , so I went to…read moretheir website to look for a different location. I placed an order online through their website and drove to pick it up only to find out that their own website listed the wrong address for this location that Apple Maps has the wrong hours for. What a mess! By the time I got to the wrong address and called to figure out what was going on, my food had been sitting for 30 min and I was still 15 min away from the right address + 25 min to where I was staying. I had ordered arepas, empanadas and ceviche. When I finally arrived to pick up I asked for the food to be remade specially the ceviche since I didn't feel comfortable eating something raw after it seating on the counter for over an hour due to their mistake. There was push back but they finally agree to re make the ceviche only. However the rest of the food was cold by the time we ate it. Very disappointing. Food was ok, not amazing or memorable

I'm so happy I discovered 7TYONE Kitchen on 71st Street in Miami Beach! From the moment I arrived,…read moreI knew this place was special... The first thing that caught my attention was the beautiful outdoor setup. The lavender accents, the adorable decorative bicycle, and the refreshing mist made such a difference on a hot Miami summer day. It's the only restaurant on the block offering that kind of cooling system, and it's such a thoughtful touch. The outdoor seating is spacious and comfortable, with plenty of room for 2 groups of 4 without feeling crowded. As soon as I walked inside, I was greeted by a warm, cozy atmosphere. Everything was spotless the dining area, the simple yet elegant table settings, and the beautiful pastry display. You can tell they take pride in every detail!! What truly made the experience unforgettable was the customer service. The owner was there personally welcoming guests and made me feel right at home. Everyone had genuine smiles, and before I had even ordered, she generously offered me a complimentary cachapa. That level of hospitality is rare and speaks volumes about how much they care about their customers. The energy of this place is incredible warm, welcoming, and full of heart. It's the kind of restaurant that makes you want to come back, not just for the food but for the experience. I'm so happy I found this hidden gem, and I'll definitely be returning. Highly recommend!

I use to highly recommend the small Venezuelan hole in the wall with great pastry and savory options. However, the service is not worth it. For example today I came by myself walked inside to ask if I could sit at the empty tables outside. The server came a few minutes after with a menu, I tried to make it easy so I said "I am just having chicken tenders and a cup of water please". She said "great so you've been here before". After 10 minutes of sitting alone I walked inside and politely asked for a cup of water. She responded "it's free I'll bring it when I'm ready". So I went back outside sat by myself and a gentlemen sat him self and ordered an espresso. The server made his espresso brought it to him while I am still sitting on the hot side walk without a cup of water. She brought the cup of water while I was getting up to leave. At this point it had been 17 minutes. I told her I was leaving and she said I have to stay for the chicken tenders. I said I would have loved to but the lack of service and disrespect made me loose my appetite. She then went on to call me "Pathetic". I didn't respond I've been in the restaurant industry for 27 years have a quite successful restaurant here in Miami Beach. I don't know the servers name she never told me. But if anyone "owners or investors" want to look into the matter I highly recommend it. She had dark curly hair, was over wait and wearing glasses. Calling a guest"/paying customer "Pathetic" is unacceptable.
