Tinta y Cafe is home to one of my most favorite iced cafe con leche's in the city…read more Now that it's a short 5 minutes from my apartment, I find myself to pop in on a lazy Sunday to get the perfect cafe and my beloved tostada with cheese. I typically frequent the pick up window but snagging a seat inside is so nice, too. It's one of those spots that encourages you to be off your device and connect, and that makes me feel like I'm at a family table connecting with my loved ones. They make stellar sandwiches and always have delicious specials. Service is friendly and do not miss the croquetas!

I have come here a few times, usually dropping in at the window for a to-go latte. Parking is…read morenearly impossible as the lot is tiny and available street parking is extremely limited. Inside it's just as small as you can imagine. So after driving around looking for parking, there is still a 97% chance you may not have a seat available. Sure there's some (2 or 3?) outdoor tables but it's usually either raining or too humid to be outside. On the slim chance you can sit inside, there are two tables and a long bar where they make the food (read: lots of smoke, noise and uncomfortable seating). In my last visit, sitting at the bar, I was informed there is a no-laptop policy. Cool, I get it--you don't want people camping in. So I take out my phone to check emails and I receive dirty looks from the staff. Whatever, but the worst thing was that the croquetas I ordered were absolutely atrocious. They tasted weirdly fishy, like bad recycled oil. The pastelitos looked a bit sad and over baked so I passed on them. It was stranger because on my first ever visit the croquetas were fine but this time-- I gagged. The coffee is fine but the rest is overhyped.

Finally!!!! I'm at a…read moreloss for words... honestly the BEST BREAKFAST SANDWICH IN MIAMI DADE! The hype is real! The English muffin was toasty and soft , bacon as cooked to perfection and the eggs and cheese were just creamy , fluffy and delicious. I could have eaten 3 easily. The staff were so welcoming and sweet and everyone in line were all just as excited as i was just to finally be there. I will definitely be returning.

Perhaps I shouldn't have read the hype before eating here. Don't get me wrong, my wife and I…read moreenjoyed our breakfast sandwiches. Where this fell down to us was in the baked goods... including the "English muffin" on which the sandwich was based. Let's start with the good things... the service was fast and friendly. Clearly all the ingredients were high quality. Everything looked beautiful in the display window. The eggs were perfectly scrambled. Light, fluffy, moist, and held together with just the right amount of rich cheddar cheese. And, the Bacon was great ... thick, just the right amount of crispy and chewy. The English muffin was disappointing; dry, dense, heavy and overly chewy. It's almost as if the dough didn't have a chance to rise fully, it was made with too little water, and it was undercooked. It was so dense that the smooth interior faces of the muffin didn't even do a good job of holding the sandwich together. Sauce dripped, eggs fell out. Even the thick bacon slid around, almost escaping being bitten into. This wasn't the only baking concern we had with Ophelia. We also picked up a mango filled "summer special" (doughnut) and a piece of "Pistachio Berry Toast". The doughnut filling was wonderful.. rich, sweet mango. The doughnut itself was surprisingly dry and dense. Then there's the reason we just don't care to return to Ophelia... the pistachio berry "toast". First, there was nothing toasted about this dense slab that most resembled pound cake... yes, pound cake. Dry, tasteless, and completely underwhelming. It's difficult to identify the makeup of the "pistachio" topping... and it certainly lacked flavor. The berries were flat, desiccated berries on top. All was covered with a thin dusting of confectioners sugar. Definitely nothing to have again. We also had a cortado and a matcha latte. All told, the cost of this trailer-in-a-parking-lot quick breakfast was $57 including a 20% tip that we added. There are no picnic tables or benches around, so we ate in the car. By the time we left there was a line of over 25 people, and more streaming in. When we arrived at 7:45 AM Saturday there were only three people ahead of us. So, either the hype is still pulling in new unsuspecting customers, or this was a really "off" day for the quality of the baked goods.

My dad treated me to birthday breakfast recently & while my original choice was Tina's in the…read moreGables because I hadn't been yet, we quickly changed our minds when we walked into a teeny, crammed space with an hour wait for a party of two. The hostess was very sweet & offered us counter seating, but it was literally right next to the entrance where everyone was standing trying to get out of the hot sun. Definitely not the birthday brekkie vibe I was after. And the parking situation? Diabolical. If I ever go back, I'm taking a Lyft. Once we got back to the car, I started thinking of somewhere close, delicious & that we could hopefully get into before 10:30, when most Miamians start making their way into the streets & every breakfast spot gets overrun. THREEFOLD CAFE! Hadn't been in a while & it was my dad's first time. We drove the 5min distance, parked in the ample, inexpensive garage & walked over. It was busy, but luckily we were seated right away by the lovely Ali (hey fellow Leo queen!), who got us started with drinks. Then my fave waitress Monica came over with her usual charisma & warmth. We had such a great time sipping their very good red wine sangrias & eating a delicious breakfast, including the absolutely to-die-for Don't Be a Lemon Tart French Toast. All in all, the loveliest, most perfect place & way to spend my birthday morning with my dad. Absolutely need to come by more often. Fantastic, consistent spot!

The interior is lovely and the staff are so nice. You can even go sit there and work.

Block East from Versailles Parking resulted a little difficult given that this place is located in a small strip mall with limited spaces and other visit business, if lucky you will find a spot on the rear area or wait for a space to become available Entrance by the deli is narrow and crowded, the deli is well stocked, its impossible or leave empty hand My ordering process (one item to go) was easy despite the crowded entrance Waiting time resulted a little bit excessive ( they seem operating in a busy schedule ) This could definitively improve.

The chicken empanada was really good. The coffee was a disappointing. The barista used old foam (whipped expresso) from a previous batch. My sister ordered hers with oat milk and I ordered mine with regular milk. After the barista finished he was like which one likes it sweeter and I said me and he tried to give me my sister's coffee and we both said no? Because of the milk. He said they both tasted sweet anyways. Mine was slightly darker and I had to add sugar on mine to make it taste decent. The empanada definitely saved them and is the only reason I gave them 2 stars.

On this last trip, we ordered the Special Cuban sandwich is their larger version of the famous Cuban or Cubano sandwich. We also ordered the Versailles Combo Appetizer which includes a beef empanada, a chicken empanada and a ham and cheese empanada. You also get the yucca fries with the cilantro sauce. And finally you get some croquettes. Not a huge fan of the croquettes here but they are OK. As previously mentioned, we have been here several time and on this trip, the hostess said if you want to be in the room of mirrors. What? I said OK and they took us to the back, where it is a, well... room of mirrors. The way she said it made me think, should I be concerned. But it was a big open area. The whole place is very nice. We love the large parking area because this place is packed most of the time. We actually came back and ordered another Cubano for the flight home. You should have seen the people looking at us while we ate our Cubano and they enjoyed their pretzel braids. :)

The cafe con leche was a little steep at $6.50 each but i think the experience was worth it. We were greeted as soon as we walked in and directed over to the register to ordered our coffee. While we waited for our coffee to be prepared we took in all the cutie decor. It felt like i was in an immersive museum and the cafe con leche itself was absolutely delicious only one regret is that it wasn't any bigger for as much as it cost. I saw they had food on the menu as well and would like try it next time I'm in the area.

I especially loved adding the vanilla wafer cookie to my coffee. We tried both the chicken and beef empanadas. Both were good, but we both agreed the beef empanadas were the standout. The flan was also delicious and definitely worth ordering. The staff were friendly and welcoming each time we visited. One thing I'd note for first-time visitors is that it seems easiest to order at the register, especially when things get busy and there's a lot going on. Great coffee, great food, and a place we'll continue coming back to whenever we're in Miami.
