My favorite little Jamaican Patty spot in Miami! The second you walk in you feel like you've been transported to a mom and pop shop in Jamaica. The prices are unbeatable and the hospitality is always great. You must get the Patty with the coco bread or you'll be missing out on the experience. read more

Best patties in Miami, they have short hours so you gotta hustle they also sell out quick read more

Sonia's Patties - Miami time I guess. Boo..hiss.... - Bakeries Near Me - Miami, Florida

Very rude employees. Ordered prior to getting there and then I had to wait another 1/2 hr

I tried five different Jamaican pattie places that are supposed to be the best in Miami. I still have two more to try but so far out of all of them this place has the best, the only thing I do not like is that the Pattie's don't have a traditional Jamaican pattie crust, but even though it doesn't their spices and portion of meat inside the patties are on point. This will be my go to place. read more

One of the few hidden gems in the suburbs, Sonia's Patties has been serving up their signature fresh made to order Patties since 1989. I have been coming to this location since a kid and I can truly say everything is exactly the same, same amount of care they put into baking everything fresh daily, same friendly service, and ofcourse the same secret blend of spices and ingredients that makes these some of the best I (or anyone) has ever had. read more

I honestly don't know how it has taken me forever to go to this place. Sonia's Patties has been there for as long as i can remember. The place is modest but clean, the menu has about the right amount of things and prices are good. We ordered coco bread and beef patties. The sizes are great, the beef filling is hearty and the dough is soft but nice and crispy on the outside. The coco bread mixed with the empanada is delicious. read more

Sonia's Patties - Coco bread and beef pattie - Bakeries Near Me - Miami, Florida

Sonia has never disappointed my West Indian palate all my life. My personal favorite is the ackee and salt fish pattie, with the curry chicken Pattie being my Dad's fav. My kids can't get enough of the beef patties, and we all have soft, chewy coco bread all most every time. If you want a hot, fresh, nice tasting pattie, Sonia's does not disappoint. read more

Heard of Sonia's Patties for years and had some time to kill so I passed by on Saturday. I ordered two Patties the curry chicken and mild beef. Both were made with the same buttery and crunchy crust, while stuffed with good quality meats. The two fillings were bursting with flavor but the curry chicken had the edge. The staff were super friendly and gave good recommendations. Can't wait to come back and try a different item. read more

Sonia's Patties - The patty!! - Bakeries Near Me - Miami, Florida

A lowkey spot with very little decorations. However, these were the best best patties I have ever had. I got a spicy beef and a chicken one, and coco bread on the beef. WOW. So many flavors and textures! It was a 30 minute drive and it was SO WORTH IT. The coco bread is to die for. The service was nice and straight to the point, which I love. The simplicity of this spot is the best. Just come in, get a Pattie, and have an explosion of flavor in your mouth. THIS IS A MUST HAVE if you're anywhere near south Miami! read more

Always good. Love it. I use to go here when I was in high school for lunch and now almost 30 years later I still come here. I have to stop here every time I come to Miami to visit. read more

My family has been taking me to Sonia's patties every since I was a kid, maybe since I was like 8-10 years old. As of now, I am 27 years old (that should say something of coming back every so often over the years) and there's no other place in Florida that has better Jamaican patties than Sonia's! The taste is so fresh, savory, and feels home cooked. The prices have slightly gone up sadly, but with all things today, I'm not surprised. I will pay every nickel and dime to be able to eat these patties. Ordering is super easy, on the phone or in person, it's quick and efficient. It's a little hole in the wall, so you know it's going to be good. The fact they have been operating for about 30 something years and people keep coming back despite the pricing, says something about their food. That it's oh so good! read more

I work overnight so I took a nap before coming here since they open at 11am. I wake up out of my sleep to make it here for the door to be locked at 11:05. I called and they said that they are slammed with orders at 11:05am, so I would have to wait until 12:30pm, for my order. Pretty disappointing to know they have a location store, but have it locked at 11:05, when they are suppose to be open and let you in. Definitely, not driving 25 mins to wait for some "Jamaican Patties" for over an hour and be told, "did you place your order online?" As if I am suppose to know that when you have a location store. read more

Sonia's is absolutely delicious and the patties are HUGE, but I had to knock a star because they do have an issue opening on time. I get that they're a small business, but if you struggle to open consistently at 11, maybe just move your opening time to 12 to not lose potential customers? I showed up at 11:10 and they were closed. I decided to go to the Asian market next door, and by the time I finished, Sonia's was finally opening at 11:30. The patties are made to order, so they're extremely warm and fresh. I opted for the chicken curry while my mans went with the spicy beef with coco bread. Both were absolutely wonderful, and I'd argue Sonia's has the best patties I've tried in South Florida. I'll definitely go back, but perhaps I'll place an online order for pick-up after 12 rather than order in person. This is located in a shopping center, so lots of free parking to be found. read more

Don't listen to the average rating on this place. This spot is a MUST VISIT. The menu is simple and the expertise on patties shows. Confused about what to get? Impossible it's just patties. And that's all it need to be. The service is great also. Super fast for patties made on the spot. read more

The food is delicious but this place need some serious remodeling. Old extremely old and unwelcoming. It's like they don't even want to entertain you . They don't care what they look like, get ur Pattie's and leave attitude. It's a shame , wonder what that kitchen looks like that's covered by the wall read more

My son has been going to Sonia's Patties for quite some time now. Today, as I passed by, I decided to stop and pick up a pattie for myself. Boy was I glad I did! As I entered the small clean space, I was greeted by a kind attentive lady. I noticed that there are no tables or chairs in the shop. This is a place where you order and take the food with you to enjoy elsewhere. I ordered the spicy pattie and loved every single bite. The crust is my absolute favorite, the texture is flaky and crunchy. Just thinking about my experience makes me want to run there and buy another one. The actual pattie is packed with lots of meat. The meat was of good quality, not greasy at all. The spice level was on point. I noticed that they have lobster patties, I will probably be back for those soon! read more

Sonia's Patties - Bakeries Near Me - Miami, Florida

The place is not a sit down restaurant at all. Has no tables, only one bench for sitting while you wait for your delicious parties. This place has been around long enough to be called an "established" business! Which means they are legit! They offer Mild Beef, Spicy Beef Curry Lobster and Curry Chicken patties. They also have delicious coconut bread in which you can wrap your pattie in for extra deliciousness!! They offer a variety of drinks, Jamaican colas, juices, water and more! They now have mini patties you can order by the dozen for your next party! Parking is a public lot and it's not a problem at all. It is located in a strip mall in front of MDC South campus! read more

Sonia's Patties - Their menu! - Bakeries Near Me - Miami, Florida

These Jamaican Patties are so delicious!!!! We love coming here and othering a dozen (4 of each flavor). If you want my vote; curry chicken, spicy meat and then meat. Add a coco bread for pure perfection. Small to go place. Don't expect to dine in or sit (although they have a bench to wait on while they bake your patty.) no restrooms. read more

I'm obsessed with jamaican patties, and they do it right at Sonia's. All baked to order, they have a variety of flavors to choose from but I'm loyal to their spicy beef. Hot tip: make sure to get their coco bread and stuff a jamaican patty inside. read more

Sonia's Patties - jamaican patty with coco bread - Bakeries Near Me - Miami, Florida

Just recently I was telling a friend how much I like Jamaican beef patties, so he tells me "well then you've obviously been to Sonia's Patties". My answer was sadly no. He goes on to tell me it's a must try because they are the best patties in town. I finally made my way to Sonia's today, and my friend , I concur that these are the best patties in town. The menu is very limited, Sonia only makes a few different patties, rum cake, coco bread, and that's about it. She must stick to the KISS principle (keep it simple stupid). I tried the spicy beef patty, a curry chicken patty, and a slice of original rum cake. Both patties were very good, but the spicy Jamaican was by far my favorite. The dough of the patty was just perfect , and the filling was also great, good amount of spice and just overall tasty . One tip I'd give would be to order your patties in advance as they are all made to order (takes about 15 minutes ), and once you do pick them up I'd suggest to wait about 10 minutes before eating as they are extremely hot. Excellent little spot, I'm glad I finally came. It's literally a little hole in the wall with no tables to eat , so just place your order and come by Sonia's to have the best Jamaican beef patty in Miami. read more

Love this place. They aren't exactly traditional Jamaican Pattie's because they don't really have that flaky crust, but nonetheless they are delicious and worth a trip read more

I haven't had Sonia's in a couple years, but suddenly I decided that I absolutely had to have some patties. I don't think the filling was as good as it used to be- hence the 4 stars instead of 5- but it's still good. The patties are flaky without falling part. I had a plantain and a chicken curry. The chicken curry was slightly more bland than I had hoped. The plantain is more of a dessert patty: very sweet and flavored with cinnamon. My husband had the spicy beef, which he said was his favorite of the 3. Service was good and the place smells great. There is only a bench inside to seat, so it's more of a "to go" place. The patties are made to order and take about 5-15 minutes to make, so calling your order in first might be a good idea if you don't want to wait around. There's actually tons of parking in this little strip mall, and there is a bike rack right outside of Sonia's. Every once in a while they have special lobster patties, which are very rich. They used to have spinach patties years ago, which I hope they decide to bring back one day given that the only vegetarian option is the dessert-like plantain. read more

Patties are amazingly fresh, and savory. Remains hot for a long time, keeping that warm oven baked goodness until you eat them. Best patties in order of awesomeness are spicy beef, curry chicken, and mild beef. Plantain patty has unusual pink color, island thing I guess, but worth trying. Exotic patties to try when in season are the shrimp, and lobster. Overall, these jamaican patties are beyond compare to anything you can buy at the frozen section of the supermarket. Clerk is very efficient, and clean. She is always polite and professional. I've been ordering from Sonia for years. read more

Best patties in south Florida. Decades long customer. If and when they have cake available, do yourself a favour and get some.

Amazing patties but the lady has some serious attitude lol. I just ignore her but her patties are great! There huge and a bit different from the ones you usually see. Filled with tons of meat, almost like a meat patty. Just ignore the attitude read more

The food is delicious, the food is fresh and made to order. Definitely not a sit down place but worth it!

These people should be ashamed of themselves. I personally don't even think they can be Jamaican, there is no way any Jamaican would serve of this kind of class 'A' crap they claim are Jamaican patty's! Typically I don't eat Jamaican patty's outside of Jamaica because it's just not the same. No patty I've ever had in Canada or the US has ever come close to remotely tasting like the patty's made in Jamaica. Once you've had a "Juici" or a "Tastee" brand patty in Jamaica, it's hard or near impossible to enjoy anything of a lower standard. So when I have a craving for anything Jamaican I usually end up spending time in the kitchen, unless I'm craving patties. Patty's are something I have no idea how to make, and even if I knew how I wouldn't even try because it takes to much time to make. It just so happens I was in south Miami when the patty craving hit me so I dropped by Sonia's patty's only to be the one to be dropped on. After ordering 4 curry chicken patties and trying one, I couldn't believe the crap that I had just put in my mouth. These are by far the worst patty's I've ever eaten in my life. 1)The crust of Jamaican patty is suppose to be flaky, thin and light. This crust was more like a calzone thick and tough. 2)Jamaican patty's are suppose to use Jamaican curry or at least Caribbean curry to make the interior filling. Unbelievably this curry had a grotesque taste...kind of like ajax cleaner, the curry also tasted under cooked. This curry definitely wasn't Jamaican much less of Caribbean origin. 3) The interior filling was not the typical slices and chunks of chicken you would find in a Jamaican patty, it looked like ground chicken and kind of pasty. Ground chicken is typically the grounded parts of the chicken that no one else uses. http://bit.ly/2gtXz5j I threw all 4 pattys into my backyard lake for the fish. read more

Best patties in town! We love the mild and spicy. Going to try the curry next time! Super friendly staff!

Sonia's Pattie's have been around at least since the 90's. I remember my brother and I going with our friends in between classes at Miami Dade Community College to have lunch at Sonia's patties. We are Hispanics and fell in love with these Jamaican patties. When my husband and I went to Jamaica and tried the Jamaican Pattie's their, we knew we had a gem with Sonia's Patties in Miami. Four decades later, I am so grateful that they still exist and now according to our kids and friends they have the Best Patties. We started our kids with the mild and a Champagne Kola and now they love the spicy beef. The patties are made fresh when you place your order but worth the wait. Currently they have mild beef, spicy beef, and curry chicken. People buy the spicy beef and put it inside the coconut bread. Sonia's also carry coconut bread, rum cakes, and refreshments. Five stars because of great customer service and the Pattie's taste the same after all these years. read more

Definitely a hole in the wall but so good. I got the spicy beef sandwiched with coco bread. Just the right amount of spice. I've been looking for a patty place and I'm glad I found Sonia's. read more

I've got only one word to say: Curry Chicken Patty! Ok, so maybe that's three words. It doesn't matter how many words it is, but there is one word to describe them: Awesome. They have more than chicken, but it's the chicken that sets Sonia's apart from the the rest of the patty crowd. Freshness is also another thing that sets them apart; you won't find your patty sitting around getting warmed all day.. Nope, you've got to wait a little while. It's worth the wait. Sonia's has been here for nearly 20 years, has seen many write-ups and has even been seen on some popular food network TV shows.. I'm surprised there was no review on here. Maybe the other Yelpers are trying to keep it a secret? read more

It's always good to go to a place that lives up to its positive reviews. Located in a small strip mall directly across MDCC this place is awesome! The service was very friendly and the menu is a "no nonsense" menu. Meaning you can have a patty or a patty! Don't try to be complicated. I decided to try a mild beef w/coco bread, a curry chicken & a lobster patty accompanied by a Kola Champagne. Easily they win the award for BEST PATTY! It was VERY HOT, Very fresh and Very Delicious! I will recommend that you call your order ahead because it can take up to 15-20 minutes as the patties are made to order. Also make sure you let the patty sit for at least 5-10 minutes because they're scorching hot!! The coco bread was phenomenal! I'll definitely return. They could use a few seating areas for those who want to eat it there. read more

Love this place! The patties are super delicious and made to order so they're super hot when you pick them up. Just wish they were open a bit longer. I definitely recommend the spicy patty with the coco bread wrapped around it. So freakin good! read more

Jamaican Patties... yummi!! This place has been for quite some time, they have built their reputation thru time! Patties are $2.25 each, they have several types: mild beef, spicy beef, curry chicken, and even lobster!! Lobster one is not a regular... but interesting, I don't know how would I feel eating a Lobster Pattie... hhmm... maybe not eating the whole thing. My favorite is the Spicy Beef, it's perfectly flavored, although if you don't do spicy... maybe stay away from this one. Spicyness gets stronger as you bite more. Patties are MADE TO ORDER, so yes you will have to wait, but it's definitely worth it!! HOT and crunchy when you first bite!! Yummi!!! Beware of the hotness!! read more

If you like Jamaican patties, Sonia's is the place to go in South Miami-Dade county. Despite the famous reviews that have mentioned exotic patties such as lobster, the present menu seems to only have beef (hot or mild) and chicken curry. The store is just a take-out counter and a waiting space with a couple of benches. American and Jamaican sodas and beverages are available. The award-winning patties are made to order, so you may have to wait for a few minutes. As a fan of Jamaican patties, I found them to be good. The crust was nice and flakey, and the fillings were hot and flavorful. The exact location may be difficult for some to find. It is opposite Miami-Dade College south campus on Killian Parkway (SW 104th St) in a strip-mall at right-angles to the road. The entrance has a Starbuck's on the corner. read more

This place is inside the plaza across from Miami-Dade College and if you blink, you will miss it because of the placement of the sign. For 2 bucks and some change, you can get a huge Jamaican patty here, mild or spicy beef or curry chicken, coco bread (no coconut--just a savory bread you eat with a patty to have it like a sandwich), or a plantain tart. They also have tons of Ocho Rios Brand bottled Jamaican juices like pineapple ginger, carrot orange, and many other yummy flavors. Behind the register, there is a small spot for Jamaican treats like plantain chips, spice bread, and gizzada (coconut tart), among others. There's also various bottles of scotch bonnet pepper sauces. Service here is very friendly. I asked about coco bread and the lady was more than happy to explain that in Jamaica, patties are like their McDonalds and even the school kids eat a patty wrapped in coco bread like a sandwich for lunch sometimes. She was also more than willing to recommend me a Jamaican restaurant when I asked (Sango's). As far as the patties, I have had better. The meat in the beef patty was wayyyy to wet and it could've used a little more something...maybe salt. The spice was good and you could taste the flavor of the scotch bonnet, which was nice (3.5 stars). This was my first time ever having a curry chicken patty since I always get the beef. The curry chicken patty was pretty tasty (4 stars). It was very flavorful and not overly wet, but in some spots, the curry wasn't mixed in, as if it was poured over the meat, as opposed to cooking the meat in it...I don't know. Also, it was definitely lacking salt, but the spices were on point otherwise. The crust on the patties was very good. The chicken one, was especially good, likely because there was not excess liquid messing up the crustiness. These were definitely the least greasy patties I've ever had, which great! I won't likely go back here, not because it was that bad, but because it wasn't good enough to drive that far for when I know that aren't as good as the ones I get at home in Richmond, VA. One great thing is, these are made to order!! I've NEVER had that at home. That's likely because at home the Jamaican spots are so busy that they just put them under the heat lamps because they sell out so fast they won't be there for long anyway. By the way, do not nuke it to reheat, ick! Put it in the toaster oven or stove on 400+ to keep the nice crust. The crust is key :) read more
