David's Cafe Cafecito

Sunday brunch after a short bike ride. At the beginning everything was great when they gave us coffee without even asking, but after that, the service became terrible. The waitress was stressed and as if the place was full, but no. The place was 60% of its max occupancy. She didn’t take the time to listen to us or answering any question we could have. The order was wrong. We got a plate full of bacon we didn’t order. She said we ordered, and I told her “we are vegetarian, sorry. We don’t eat meat.” Then, when leaving, we asked to the waiter about this really good French toast, and he said “I’m sorry, but I don’t have time to tell you how to make French toast” very rude. In conclusion, the place is nice, a bit noisy. Service terrible and food ok

I ordered the churrasco steak but it was lacking the black beans, rice and sweet plantains so I ordered a second meal to get those. The potatoes really need more flavor, very dry but everything else was delicious. Our server was awesome and the food was well worth the visit.

Sammy is AMAZING and the food was perfection. The steak was tender and full of flavor. The eggs were cooked perfect, and Cuban toast was buttery goodness. The coffee was full of flavor and creamy. Will be visiting again when I'm back in town.

I would say it's nothing better than average. They have a pretty decent menu but it's a whole lot of the same thing with slightly different ingredients. There are about 4 chicken sandwiches with different toppings. The quality of the food was decent. The speed of service was good but I wasn't very satisfied with my server. She acted annoyed that I was asking for recommendations and for more detail on specific items on the menu. The prices were the most appealing aspect of the restaurant. Relatively cheap. Overall it was average. I might eat here again, but probably not.

Good little spot, friendly staff, quick service, good amount of items, great prices and good portions. Very tasty Latin cuisine. Not too far from ocean ave and near other places to try.

We told our waiter that we needed assistance on selecting our Cuban dishes and he was extremely helpful. Our food is was delishious. I would definitely go back again.

Very cozy old school set up with super views inside and out. Staff very friendly. Great food that won't break the budget.

David’s. I still miss the ladies at the window of the Meridian Avenue location. I used to just walk over in the mornings before going to work. The lunch counter back in the day had a feeling. It felt so right. We came in one day and ordered a tostada and cafe con leche, felt some sticker shock when I saw the prices. I blame it on taxes and rent. But it keeps me from going more often. Went another time to have Sunday breakfast. Breaking from our usual go-to. The vibe from the wait staff was stressed rushed and impatient. Will be going back to Oliver’s for Sunday breakfast instead.
