Wow. I always used to pass by the Cheese Course, but never went in. WHAT A MISTAKE! I'm mad at myself for waiting so long to check this place out! First off, let me say how amazing their happy hour is. They have $4.50 beer & $5 pours of house wine. And not just drinks, but food too! They have a hummus or meat plate for $7.99 or an 8oz roasted Brie or two cheese plate for $13.99! And they do not skimp! It's such a beautiful and quaint place. Our server Nilma was amazing too. Yall definitely need to check this place out. read more

Met a friend for some light bites. We got the meat board with prosciutto, they had a happy hour special. We also tried the brownie which was very rich and delicious! Enough for two or three people to share. I love the ambiance here it's very relaxed. It feels very homey. Our server was very helpful and friendly. Will definitely return to try other dishes. I have had their sandwiches before and they have never disappointed! read more

This is a sure go-to place for many of my friends. I've tried most of the items on the menu, and none have disappointed. You literally can't go wrong. The souls are great, the salads, the lunch specials, and I've even done the cheese boards. I am updating my review, though, after going last week and having the nutrella coffee...oh WOW, what a treat! read more

enjoyed my experience here! Service was incredible fast. Ambience gave more of a coffee shop vibe even though there was table service. The food was yummy and had good portion sizes. I did the pairing with mushroom Brie soap and the stuffed avocado chicken salad. It was all very fresh and filling. The coffee was also way bigger than I expected which is always a nice surprise read more

Well that was a first! While lunching for approximately 30 minutes with a friend over sandwiches on 10/23/26 Friday afternoon, was told by the waitress that we had to leave. She and her co-worker had decided that because someone was waiting for a table we needed to leave. That was a first for my friend and I. Service was atrocious and there are plenty of better options in the area. read more

Food is always fresh and made on order. I've had both lunch and breakfast here and food is always good. They have a good wine selection and serve $5 house wines during their happy hour. There are daily specials. One of the days (don't remember which) they offer $5 soups. It's a great place to visit with friends for some wine and cheese boards. Cozy ambiance love sitting back and enjoying a warm soup on a rainy day. They have a cheese counter in the center as well where you can come pick up different cheeses to take home. read more

Normally I love coming here and really enjoy it, but yesterday was a different experience. I ordered the Black Forest ham and cheese sandwich. The sandwich bread was not heated so the bread was hard. I overheard another couple at the table behind me say the same thing. I also ordered the butternut squash soup which is always delicious, but yesterday it was cold and clumpy. My son had the truffle Mac and cheese which was drowning in truffle oil. Think I will be taking a break from here for a while. Service was good. read more

I have always liked coming here for a quick lunch. It is one of those places that once you walk in you feel transported to some small cafe in Europe. The old looking marble top tables and the way it is decorated definitely can do the trick. Food wise it is very good. Fresh salads and light sandwiches along with some charcuterie makes this a perfect experience for having something light or just having a good time with some friends over wine and a nice cheese board. Awesome service... very friendly and attentive. Prices are very reasonable and food, like I mentioned, is very good. read more

I enjoyed the sandwiches, soup and coffee. The girls were very sweet and patient. Thank you.

The soups were cold. Not even room temperature. The sandwiches were mediocre at best. Now the main issue I had was the server with super long hair that was not tied back and each time she served something she literally dipped her hair in everything! In our drinks and on the sandwiches. Thank goodness a second server brought out the soups or I would have just left. PLEASE pull your hair back!! read more

Do not skip this place ! The sandwiches are sooooooooo delicious. Perfect for sandwiches + super indulgent. I was skeptical at first because it's in a shopping plaza, but was converted quickly upon my first bite. I gave them 4 stars because staff was not really welcoming + atmosphere lacked personality. read more

Wow. Super cute dainty place in a shopping center in pinecrest. Decided to come here bc of great yelp reviews. I had butternut squash soup and a Greek salad. Really didn't go together per say but it worked out. The Greek salad was delicious. I added chicken. It was really really good. One of the best Greek salad I've had The butternut squash was equally amazing. One of the best. My friend had the tomato soup w a sandwich and she loved her food as well. I would definitely come back here and highly recommend. Enjoy. read more

R and I stopped here Sunday for a light dinner when our first choice of restaurant was unexpectedly packed. I was surprised to see a Cheese Course still a bunch of them had closed down. After our experience here, frankly, I can kind of see why. Y'all can tell from my reviews that I'm not a seafood fan while my bae is. When she ordered a salmon dish the waitress made a face and insinuated that it wasn't their best dish. That'd be like me dismissively telling one of my clients that "no, I don't do steel framed homes". So maybe a little more creative presentation / explanation of your product eh? We had a brie appetizer with figs which was delicious. The cheese was perfectly sharp and I loved the figs and sweet fruits. That was the saving grace. My main was their prosciutto sandwich, it was OK with creamy mozarella. It could have used a little more ham and maybe some balsamic vinegar to boost the taste. read more

This place is good. They have great sandwiches. I have not tried to many items on the menu, but people like it. Next time I will ask for the tomato soup because I really love it and I want to try it. Friendly staff. Great atmosphere!! read more

Sunday Fun Day Dinning!!! We walked in, and sat immediately. The service was not the best at all. The food was quite decent. When I tried to order the waitress, was very unprofessional with her manners. I tried to order the salmon and she got disgusted by it. Made feel a bit uncomfortable. I felt like walk out then, and there. I kept my calm. Ordered my dinner. The tables are very small too. This would explain why the place was very empty. Not turning back!!! read more

I got a deal on a groupon so I figured I would try it out. So worth it. The deal was a cheese fondue for two, with 2 glasses of wine. And dipping fruits,bread & veggies. We added a side of Serano ham for $3-$4 dollars. It was delicious. The cheese was just perfect. The blend of flavors was just amazing. I wanted to order a special they had but was so full from the fondue that I had to save it for another day(will hopefully update my review to 5 star after I try the lunch). The server was very nice and helpful with any questions we had about the different variety of cheese and Wine they had. While walking around and checking out everything all the employees were very helpful. The place itself is very clean. I can't wait to come back and try out the menu items. Everything sounds so good. read more

Love me some cheesecourse! Had the pleasure to revisit this establishment during lunch and OMG was so happy ! The stuffed avocado salad, exactly how you read it, is exceptional. An avocado split open and stuffed with feta and chicken, on top of greens and tomatoes. Yes. I'm for real. For a slight upcharge, add the mushroom and brie soup. Nothing more to say. Heaven! Get there early because the place does get packed. Can't wait to go back! Note: this isn't a fast food joint. You will be pressed for time if you are on a time limit. This is the type of place where you sit and enjoy food and conversation. Cheers! read more

UPDATE: The Cheese Course mailed me a $10 gift card for the poor service I have received at their Pinecrest location on two separate occasions. I found this "gesture" insulting because it will not even cover the cost of a single lunch item.... Well, maybe a piece of cheese and an iced tea. Unbelievable! Definitely not enough to convince me to come back to the restaurant. Sorry, Cheese Course, but you have lost my business. Clearly you guys have a serious management problem. == The food tastes great but the service is HORRIBLE. I have visited Cheese Course twice and they missed the mark both times. I brought a friend with me today and the soup they brought him was cold after a long wait. I was so embarrassed. The kitchen appears very disorganized because people who ordered after us received their food first. It was one disaster after another. Again, the great taste of the food is the only thing saving this restaurant. They need to get their act together. read more

Nice shop and place to eat. I heard about the Cheese Course in Midtown, but due to the opening of this store... definitely a place to visit. Went for lunch, very nice place. The set up of their products, the whole ambiance makes you feel that you are in a small unique shop buying specialty stuff!! And special it is, as they have a big variety of cheeses, mild, bold, whatever flavor. Ordered the Charcuterie Platter, they give you several meats to choose from and their accompaniments. The meat selection: Prosciutto, Serrano, Truffle Pate & Duck Pate. Accompaniments: fig chutney, plum chutney, cornichons and of course... Baguette Bread!!! Everything was delicious!!! plus we ordered salad too!! that came with fresh goat cheese, that was very tasty - the French Salad, maybe..... Staff is super friendly, attentive and helpful with the questions. Check In on Yelp and get 10% off!!! read more

Let me preface this review by saying I don't like to leave bad reviews.... Service- We were seated for about 15 minutes before being graded. After I got up and walked over to the counter to ask for some water, one of the waiters came back with a carafe of water and walked away so I had to get up and grab glasses from the back myself. Our waiter abandoned us after taking our order and his manager, who was busy tending to the rest of the restaurant, took over. We had to ask for our wine another 15 min after we ordered it. Also several tables around us were left dirty for most of our meal. When the waiter did clean the table he put all the dirty dishes on a cart and brushed against my back. That said the lady I presume is the manager was very nice and hard working. The food was a 3 our 5-whatever. read more

I got a Groupon and I decided to take my daughter for a date night last Friday. The deal was; fondue and wine for two. I had both wines!! It was a wonderful night, we liked it because: W loved how clean the place was. The cute French decoration made the vibe amazing. The soothing jazz background music. The delicious cheese and always Hot!!! The crunchy and tasty sides to dip on the cheese. The pleasant service we got from everyone here. Thank you for a great time! read more

I was thrilled to find this location right off the highway on the way from Key West to MIA. After having a sandwich at the Midtown location, I thought I'd try this one...purely for comparison purposes. :P I had the grilled chicken sandwich with pesto and fontina on the whole wheat baguette. They had me at fontina. So delicious and melty...as shown in the pic. It stole the show. My husband had the salami sandwich and was "shocked" at how strong the provolone was. I think it just came off as really sharp since it was so abundant and thickly sliced. I would try to order it with a milder cheese, like mozzarella, or ask for less provolone. Even though I liked my black forest ham and brie sandwich at the other location better, the grilled chicken one here was still pretty darn good. Overall, love this place, but I give the other location the edge due to friendlier service. read more

We had a lovely lunch experience. There are a few things I learned as a first time customer that I am inclined to share because I would like to have known this information before I walked in. * plan on a leisurely meal- took is 40 minutes after we ordered our cheese plate, salad and sandwich to get our food * soup is not available until after 12 * the menu notes a create your cheese course with selected pairings of cheeses but they 'don't have that anymore' although I was allowed to recreate it (had the #43) * when they say 'served with fruit' they mean grapes (only) All of that being said, we were not in a hurry and had an enjoyable meal. The place is clean, service on point, staff knowledgeable (I called someone over to explain which cheese was which on my plate which he was readily willing to do- some sort of cheese markers would have been nice). It was pricy for a lunch but not unreasonable. Ambience is comfortable. We would recommend and return again. Try it. You'll like it. read more

I am extremely disappointed with my food today. My child has a cold so we ordered Uber eats and stayed in. We ordered the white meat chicken salad #29. These salads are almost $17 each. The photo shows a salad with two scoops of chicken salad- we ordered two of these. Each came with not even a full ONE scoop. So we basically paid for two and got one serving. This is unacceptable and I will never order from this location ever again. It's sad that they do this to their to go customers, as they know it's unlikely the person would go all the way to the restaurant to complain to them. I did contact the restaurant to explain, and spoke to a "manager" named Lirio which stated "oh yeah, we uploaded the wrong photo for that entree, nothing I can do about it". I don't even understand how false advertisement doesn't even them. read more

On a chilly Miami afternoon, lunch at The Cheese Course was perfect. I ordered 1/2 caprese sandwich (which was very fresh and light) and their potato soup which was probably the best I have evr had.

First time here, we almost didn't go in as it was entirely empty on a Saturday night, but I'm glad we gave it a try! Modern decor, clean place, classical music, truly a European hideout in the heart of Pinecrest. The cheese fondue was superb, rich but tangy, served with an array of crunchy veggies so I did not feel guilty at all. We all had different soups & sandwiches, all were delicious. But, the best was this stuffed avocado salad, filled with grilled chicken, pomegranate, and feta cheese on a bed of fresh greens with vinaigrette dressing. It was delicious & large ( could I only eat half, no bread for me). They have a wide selection of wines & desserts, although I was so full after a soup & half salad that I had to forgo the chocolate fondue. Recommended!!! read more
