Believe the hype, this is good food. The tuna melt sandwich is a stand out for me. It is DELICIOUS. The grilled cheese and tomato bisque soup are also worth mentioning. With regards to the baked goods, the olive oil cake is chef's kiss. I'm pretty sure everything on their menu tastes good. read more

came here on a Friday with my wife after walking around wynwood and honestly was not expecting much. glad I was wrong lol. got the challah, tuna melt, and a coffee and just sat outside for like an hour. sandwich was thick, fresh, didn't fall apart which sounds like a low bar but you'd be surprised. Challah is homemade and you can tell. also grabbed a rugelach on the way out and ate it in the car immediately so that should tell you something. the people working there were normal and nice, no attitude, just friendly. place gets busy but it didn't feel chaotic or anything. pretty relaxed actually. the spot itself is cool, very wynwood, big open space with good light. doesn't feel touristy even though I'm sure tons of tourists go there. anyway yeah. good food, good vibes, fair prices. will keep going back whenever I'm in the area. one of those places you're just glad exists read more

Everything good you've read about Zak the Baker is true! Really great food and service all around. Although, we were a bit late to our 9am reservation (the lady in the front made sure we knew we were 10-12 minutes late) we were seated right away. Love the open kitchen/bakery layout. Kind of cool that you can watch them turn dough into goodness! Our waitress was super chill & helpful. Just a head's up, this is a kosher restaurant/bakery. We opted for the French Toast [$18] & it was divine. My mouth is watering as I remember how good it was. Came with fresh blueberries along with two really thick slices. The cream was really light & the filling was soooo good. Did not need syrup, although I'm sure if syrup was used it'd just enhance it. That dish alone deserves a 5/5! Yes, it's shareable, so get your best buddies in here and try it! Also got the Nova Bagel [$16] on an Everything Bagel, of course from their own bakery. Really good choice as the salmon was plentiful and suuuper fresh. Got a side of scrambled eggs [$4] which could feed a village and was surprisingly really tasty. Typically, a side of eggs is bland, but nope, not here at Zak the Baker. Got their two most popular pastries to go & both lived up to the hype as well [$5.50 Almond Croissant & $5.00 for the Pain Au Chocolate] Just really pleased with this place. Make a reservation if you can, this restaurant is crazy busy! Loved that we did not feel rushed though. read more

Pretty disappointing experience and should have done my homework instead of assuming I could get a bakery item by walking in. If you order at their counter, it's only for bakery items and drinks. A bagel with cream cheese is considered a kitchen item, so you wouldn't be able to order this (we waited in a 30 min line and only until we got to the counter they said that). 9:00 on a Sunday and there was already a 50 minute wait time even though there were open tables around. The line to order at the counter was all over the place. Would order ahead online and just do pickup. The cinnamon roll was tasty though, but waiting in that long of a queue was really not worth it. read more

I've loved this bakery since it first started. The food is always delicious and fresh. The service is excellent One thing that can be improved on is the wait time for to go beverages, you have to wait while in house orders are filled, we waited about 20 minutes for a matcha latte; a take out only beverage station would be nice. But the bread and pastries we picked up were so good! The restaurant is always busy and loud, I love it!! read more

I really lucked out and got there after the mad lunch rush ... it was around 330pm, lucky me! I have been here before, but never left a review... today's the day! Brian was my server and he was very friendly and professional and made me feel comfortable while dining alone in a VERY crowded restaurant. Typically lines are out the door here. I ordered the "unassuming" tuna melt sandwich which features tuna salad with tarragon and cranberries, sharp cheddar cheese, heirloom tomatoes, pressed on their signature country sourdough bread. OMG.... It was so warm & crispy, and OK, I'll say it, best tuna melt I have ever had. I paired it with their amazing lemonade and I just enjoyed my solo lunch. I ate inside this time. Typically there's a line out the door. There's also some seating outside, but this day it was raining. Since this is a bakery, how could I not try the rugelach? I haven't had rugelach this good since I made it from a recipe from Hebrew School decades ago. They're super authentic and 10/10. I also bought an almond croissant for tomorrow .... I had reached capacity ! And Brian, thank you again for the great service. Don't sleep on this Miami staple. The food is heavenly good and I wish I lived closer. Zak, if you're reading this review, please open up a NYC or NJ location! read more

I had heard that this bakery makes its bread fresh every day, so I was excited to try it. I ordered a latte and a chocolate croissant. The latte was good, but the croissant was just okay neither great nor bad. I did appreciate that it had a generous amount of chocolate, though. Overall, the experience was average. read more

Absolutely the best bakery in Miami, bar none. Their food is amazing and more importantly, consistent which is not always the case in Miami. Aside from their delicious product, the staff is always welcoming, attentive, and always happy to help....in particular is the wonderfully charming and helpful Nikki N. The quality of the experience is always elevated by her persona and I guarantee you will leave pleasantly full and much happier having had the warmth of her smile and aura. Go for the total experience and ask for Nikki. read more

I have heard so many good things about Zak The Baker over the years but after trying Zak The Baker for the first time, I honestly don't see what the hype was about. I'll go into more details below: I went to Zak The Baker for a weekday lunch and was seated with minimal wait. It took a few minutes for a server to greet me and the service was overall pretty cold. The restaurant has a mandatory 18% service charge and the staff didn't seem to care about providing good service because the gratuity was already tacked on to the bill. I ordered a Cold Brew Coffee ($5.50) to start. The coffee was good and locally brewed in Miami. The server advised they only have Whole, Almond, and Oat milk for creamer, pretty limited in my opinion for the cost of the coffee. For food, I loved the variety of fresh and locally grown items. I wanted to get the Caesar Salad but add a protein, and the server advised they can't add proteins to the salad because "they are a fully Kosher kitchen and restaurant" and he seemed to get an attitude about it. The restaurant doesn't advertise themselves as being a fully Kosher restaurant or I would have never come here as I don't have a need to pay a premium to dine at a fully Kosher restaurant. The server advised the only protein they could provide was Salmon and it would be prepared on a separate plate. So I opted on spending less and getting the Tomato Bisque and Grilled Cheese ($15). The tomato bisque was really good, the sandwich was average and the servers completely disappeared after my food arrived and I left as soon as I flagged someone down for my check. My stomach was messed up later in the day after my meal so I'm not really sure about their food preparation at the restaurant and won't go back. read more

Such a delicious breakfast/brunch spot with the kindest waitstaff. We had the egg platter, bagel and lox, hazelnut croissant, cheese danish and iced mocha. I also got a matcha to go. Everything was DELISH. I highly recommend getting a reservation on busy days (we went on a Sunday morning) as when we got there, it was over an hour wait. With a reservation, we were seated right away. read more

Every time I am in south Florida this is a must-hit spot! My boyfriend brought me here for the second time the other week for breakfast and it was incredible. My first time here we just got some pastries to go and after eating those I knew I had to come back. We got the egg platter & the eggs Benedict and both were perfect. Our waitress was super kind and gave fantastic recommendations. This place is ALWAYS packed but doesn't feel too overwhelming when you are seated. Overall great vibes and definitely will be coming here every time I take a trip down! read more

Every Miami local knows Zak the Baker bread and pastries are incredible. This place has been around from the beginning - way before Wynwood became huge and commercialized. I hadn't been here in years, but this place is still booming. We were told the wait would be 35-45 minutes but ended up waiting an hour. Nonetheless, the owner has set up a "park concept" on Sundays, whereby the street behind the restaurant is closed off to cars and pedestrians can play games like cornhole and listen to live music, which helped to distract from the wait time. We also know the food is worth the wait. This French toast was to die for - perfect bread crisp and not overly sweet. Even a basic thing like scrambled eggs are done exceptionally well here. It's nice to still see Zak the Baker as a wynwood staple, for the locals and tourists alike. Also, my brother purchases their apple pie around the holidays each year and while it is very pricey for pie, it is THE BEST! read more

Second time here for breakfast and left full and happy again. It seems to be less busy earlier in the morning (visited on Sunday) and we didn't wait at all for a table and the food came fairly quickly. I like their coffee - my latte was very solid, of course, the baked goods and bread are the reason to come here however. We had both a frittata sandwich and a tuna melt, along with an accompaniment of smashed potatoes. I'd never had the potatoes before and although it was a small portion IMO for $8, they were really good and I'd order them again. Both of the sandwiches were excellent and I didn't particularly notice the cranberries in the tuna salad for anyone who's not a fan of them. The servers are always friendly and seem to work more like a team. Our table was comfortable enough and I enjoy a view of the baking area and smell of fresh bread being made here. read more

In Miami we are spoiled with so much incredible Latin pastry. But when it comes to any other kind of quality baked good, is it me or are they hard to find? I long for more quality bakeries in my neighborhood but until then will happily trek to Wynwood for Zak the Baker. Their breads are my favorite things they offer. They have several different kinds and all are delicious and fresh. Of their many pastries, the banana bread is my favorite. It is always a delight with a perfect texture. Prices aren't cheap but also aren't terrible. I would say they are fair for what you get. It's usually busy but the people work hard and churn out orders pretty quick. As far as I've found, this is the best place for baked goods in town. read more

On street, metered parking BUT they will ticket within seconds so do pay! We saw the writing lots of tickets. On the sunny side - Absolutely loved our visit to Zack the Baker! The Nutella croissant was one of the most delicious I've ever had--perfectly flaky with just the right amount of sweetness. We also enjoyed their French toast on our second visit but it is meat for two or three people to share. The staff was friendly and helpful, even finding us a seat inside when it was busy. Coffee refills are available on request, which was a nice bonus. We also appreciated the clean bathroom and reasonable prices, especially for a spot in a larger city. Note: They're closed on Saturdays, so plan accordingly. If you stop by on a Friday, don't miss their freshly baked Challah loaves--they looked incredible! We purchased the cranberry country loaf but regret not buying the Challah. Will definitely buy it next time., Highly recommend for a warm, satisfying start to your day. read more

Love love love this place. I've never had a bad meal here yet. I was so excited to return yesterday and even though parking was hard it was fine. I had French toast for late lunch and it may have been the best ever. Sugary and well done, it took a bath in blueberries (fresh and a melted sauce) that was orgasmic from the start. It could've been a harry met Sally moment. Wifey had an avocado toast that looked delicious and hit every high note she said . Only bummer was they were completely sold out of babkas . Overall such a great food experience !! read more

The mango concha is something I've been thinking about since I left Miami hahhaha I really can't describe it - it's seems like it will be flakey and it is, but at the same time soft and it is, and the flavors seem like it will be sweet but not sweet and it is. aaahh! such a high quality treat - really!! Customer service is OK - tbh i don't expect them to be cheery but they all seem like they haven't had a cup of coffee yet. Very cute ambiance both inside and out though and would definitely recommend to try. read more

A popular breakfast/coffee/bakery in Wynwood. We showed up at 1045a on a Monday and the wait was 30-45 minutes (make a reservation if you don't want to wait!). We opted for the to-go line that offers all the same treats, drinks, and meals on the menu. We then at outside at the standing tables to the left of the entrance. The interior is industrial with an open kitchen/bakery. Atmosphere is lively and every staff member we interacted with were friendly and helpful. I had a sausage and egg sandwich and a drip coffee. I also got a chocolate babka to go and a box of rugaleh. If these don't sound familiar, you are missing out on traditional Jewish pastries, typical of NY deli's. My drip coffee was the best of the trip -- a proper cup of coffee with freshly roasted and ground beans. The egg sandwich was great with a sunny side up egg and the softest bread imaginable. The sausage has a unique taste -- not what I expected, but I could see others not enjoying it. I personally enjoyed it. My wife loved her avocado toast and my son ate his whole bagel with cream cheese (and he's a very picky eater!). All the baked goods were incredible. A nice spot to grab some food and cruise around Wynwood to enjoy all the street art. read more

Such good bakery and light bites. I believe they are kosher, so don't come here looking for bacon and sausage. A true Miami landmark.

Also one of the best cups of coffee I've ever had. read more

Love the baked goods and staff here!! The service was very quick and food was delicious.

I've been following Zak the Baker on Instagram for over a year, and it was so worth the wait. Their food is incredible--so much so that I had to bring some back home to Cincinnati! Every day they were open, there was a line around the corner, and it's no surprise why. Everything is made fresh in-house, and the open bakery lets you see the magic happening. It's hard to pick a favorite, but the salmon bacon BLT was unforgettable. I truly wish we had something like this back home, but until then, every time I'm in Miami, I'll be here--and you should, too! The pictures do them no justice , you have to taste the food in real time. read more

Crazy that this was my first time, but when I'm usually in Wynwood they're closed for Shabbat. On a Sunday around noon, we came in and it was packed. We were told 20-45 minutes, but we were seated much sooner. While the service was a tad slow, the food was terrific. There's nothing like getting their bakes goods fresh. By the way, if you're planning on buying a loaf of bread, they sell out of things early! The person ahead of me snagged the last olive sourdough I wanted. read more

Came here for breakfast with a friend. Plenty of seating available and no wait on a Saturday morning around 8am. We got the mushroom toast and the French toast. Both looked and tasted great. The mushroom toast was loaded with mushrooms and I loved the umami taste. The French toast was sweet but not overbearingly sugary. The environment was comfortable and pretty with the natural lighting coming in through the windows. Staff were nice. Parking available via street parking. Overall the food was good but a little pricey. I'd be curious to try their baked goods from their takeout menu. read more

My husband and I ordered breakfast -- one egg platter and one avocado toast. The taste and quality were great, but the bread portion was disappointingly small, especially for a bakery. This was particularly surprising with the egg platter, where the bread came as two tiny strips alongside the labneh -- not even equal to a single slice. The bigger issue, however, was the service -- slow, inattentive, and unfriendly. Aside from the hostess, no one seemed interested in engaging with us. It took a while for someone to take our order, even longer for the food to arrive, and no one checked on us afterward. When we finally managed to get someone's attention for the check, it was handed over without a word, barely any eye contact, and certainly no thank you or goodbye. Perhaps the mandatory 18% service charge has something to do with it -- if the tip is guaranteed, there seems to be no motivation to provide decent service. Overall, while we really like this place for its baked goods, we won't be returning for dine-in. It seems better suited for grab-and-go, or for picking up their bread at Whole Foods. read more

Zak the Baker is honestly one of the best culinary experiences I've ever had -- the quality of their food is next level and it shows in every bite. I've tried so many items here, but the fish sandwich they serve on Fridays has completely won me over. The fish is perfectly cooked--crispy on the outside, tender and flavorful on the inside--and it's paired with fresh, vibrant ingredients that make each bite absolutely unforgettable. Beyond just that sandwich, everything at Zak the Baker feels thoughtfully crafted. The bread is incredible, with crusty, perfectly baked loaves that are a true testament to their baking skill. Their pastries, savory dishes, and daily specials all highlight their dedication to quality and flavor. You can tell they use fresh, locally sourced ingredients and care deeply about what they serve. What I love most is the atmosphere and vibe of Zak the Baker -- it feels warm, welcoming, and authentic, like a place where real food lovers gather. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, adding to the overall amazing experience. And hey, good luck with the raccoons! Hopefully, they don't get too much of your farm -- though if they do, I don't blame them. I'll definitely be back, and I can't recommend Zak the Baker enough to anyone who appreciates amazing food made with passion. read more

I am a pastry snob having tried Tartine in San Francisco, La Cabra in New York and many other world renowned bakeries Zack is definitely up there.

Years ago, there use to be a bakery on Alton Road near 7th street run by a super sweet jewish lady, and there was nothing like the bread and pastries coming out of that place. Then one day she decided to retire and sold the place. Zak the baker kinda brought that back to me, but with a modern twist. You have to try their bagels. These bagels far exceeded my expectations. I daresay they were better than the bagels I had in Montreal. Added some of that nova cream cheese... Forget about it. Then there's their chocolate Bobka..... Oh my bobka.. daaaaang. Also, the size of it! Took me 3 days to finally finish just that one slice. Service couldn't have been better. Really friendly people, attentive, and courteous. I can't recommend this place enough. read more

If I were to describe Miami in the fall, Zak the Baker's menu would be my inspiration. The flavors of the freshly baked loaves of bread, the smiling faces of the servers, and the delicious combination of fall inspired flavors with the classic themes of a bakery menu make Zak the Baker a place where I stopped by multiple times during my short stay in Miami. Simply put, it was irresistible. The place goes off a welcoming and homey vibe, much like a bakery should, and its warehouse like bakery scene is balanced by the cafe style feel of the front end - Shoutout to Emily and Claudia for making Zak the Baker feel like home. I kept going back for more, and cannot recommend ZTB enough for those of you who have a chance to stop by. read more

This bakery is definitely a very popular spot in Miami and for good reason, they have such an array of dishes, drinks, and pastries. To be honest, the pastries are either good or very good/great. Most recently we got the strawberry concha and the cauliflower quiche, which were both excellent. But I have been to this bakery on other occasions and some of the pastries were just good/OK. The one downside to the spot is it is always super super busy, even on weekdays. If you want to sit and enjoy, you should definitely Make a reservation. I've never been able to walk in and get a table. Usually, we just grab items and take them to go. Still, it's worth a try and they definitely have some unique and delicious pastries so I will definitely be back! read more
