The 14 Best Breakfast Restaurants In Miami

"Deli Lane is a classic South Miami restaurant where you’ll find families congregating over french toast, really good eggs benedict, and rare mimosas under $7 (on weekends). Inside, colorful still lifes of tropical drinks and sandwiches hang next to TVs showing muted CNN reporters. Deli Lane is open from 7am to 10pm and serves breakfast all day. So the next time you want a stuck-in-time weekend brunch without a single influencer breathlessly recording oozing yolks, go here." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino

We come here all the time for breakfast & lunch and the food is always great, the drinks are really good as well. But lately I feel like something is missing, maybe a change in the menu. The reason for my rating is also because they really don’t try to make adjustments for the customers so maybe it’s more the kitchen. I am allergic to cinnamon and in most restaurants I go to they accommodate me by making the French toast differently without the premade batter. But when I asked here they didn’t even consider making this adjustment I feel as a loyal customer at least they could have tried. It really has left a bad experience and not sure if to return. If you would like to try this place I do suggest the Floridian Egg Benedict’s and the health wrap for a lighter option. The Belgian waffle is very good too. Mimosa & spicy bloody Mary’s good option.

Always a good spot! For breakfast order the egg white French toast…so good don’t even need syrup. Cold beverages at the end of the day are always good too!

Really enjoyed the vibes here. Its a cool, elegant sports bar with a staff that gives great service. Had both a Deluxe Burger and a Blueberry Mojito, both which were enjoyable. Live band Latchkey Kids played a great set of 80s throwbacks. Definitely recommend and plan to return!

This is a wonderful location. Their menu has a variety of American and Spanish. The breakfast was great and they have a good selection of coffee. The servers were nice and they have plenty of indoor and outdoor seating.

This place was so bland when it came to their food and the rudest surver!! She took so long and we got there before they were busy!! I ordered their special, truffle and steak eggs benedict and there was no truffle nothing in there at all!! The meat was tough to chewy even though it was medium well. The location is great!! They should be bought out by people that can cook with good service!! Will not be back until its under new management!!!!! Wow!!!

Absolutely happy to came here for St Patrick’s Day ☘️ The live music and the vibe was so cool and chill, everybody was having a great time, all the servers had a friendly and positive attitude, the bartender ladies were awesome, all the staff did great on such a busy day, so thank you for that!! The food was delicious and came out pretty fast. We shared the jumbo chicken wings and they were crispy, hot, good size, not too spicy but I guess you could ask for extra Buffalo sauce. Fish tacos: absolutely delicious, pretty generous amount of fish and avocado, we got fries but you can also try coleslaw or salad. And finally we shared the special: Corned Beef and Cabbage, served with potatoes, carrots and onions. So good!!! Everything was delicious. Thank you and happy St Patrick’s Day ☘️🧡🍺

Deli Lane is a typical deli with traditional breakfast with menu items like eggs Benedict, waffles, pancakes, and omelets. Food is solid without fancy plating. There is some room for experimentation like four types of eggs Benedict, option for fitness fans, and vegetarians. Parking was easy at that time, but I guess it will be worse as the day progresses. Prices are average for this market. There is plenty of covered outside sitting. Overall, it is a safe choice.

After a long day at the Arsht Center as volunteer ushers, we decided to have a late lunch and since our car was parked at the South Miami metro station, we crossed over to Sunset. My friends had previously been to Deli Lane Cafe and suggested we go there. Low and behold, it was happy hour - all drinks and appetizers were 50% off. All 3 of us chose a margarita and the California Quesadilla. The description on the menu sounded interesting, grilled chicken, alfalfa sprouts, mozzarella, avocado and pesto!!! Oh My God!!! Delicious and it paired just perfectly with my margarita. All in all, it was very economical. I don't usually finish my plate but I couldn't put my quesadilla down! My friends agreed and we will definitely stop in again.

I had lunch here with a friend. The service was great. Our server was very attentive. The food was absolutely delicious with generous portions. I had the tavern eggs benedict with tater tots and it was perfect. The place is divided into two area, sort of cafe like and the other side is pub like. I can't wait to come back here at night to see the different ambiance.

After a great night out we decided on brunch on Sunday and went from Downtown to Coconut Grove to South Miami. We decided on Deli Lane Cafe. Great ambiance and quick to get seating but then we ordered. Food was okay never got my toast. Hot chocolate was adequate but nothing to write home about. Service was mediocre at best and overall the food was bland. We have eat there before and something went wrong. Not sure but was a big disappointment. We will try again maybe just an off day.

It's really 4.5 stars. The poached eggs were poached hard and were disappointing. Everything else was wonderful. They are back to table service and Carter was great. Attentive and very personable. He checked on us and made sure our food came out ok. He was five stars! I didn't complain about the poached eggs because I was hungry. The kids had pancakes with chocolate chips and they were full of chocolate. The "side of bananas for $2" was probably about 10 cents of banana. I'd skip that next time. They loved the pancakes. We had the corned beef hash with house potatoes. Very filling but needed a little salt. Hubby loved the french toast. Left not even a crumb on the plate. We had the tequila sunrise mimosa for cinco de mayo and that was glorious. definitely worth a trip back

I've had brunch here several times. The waitstaff is always great and remembers me. Food is consistently great. Portions are always perfect for leftovers BUT they never make it home! Always a good place for outside dining and bringing your pet.

The Chicken Francaise at Deli Lane is a must-try. Chef Mo consistently delivers exceptional dishes, but this one stands out as a personal favorite. The flavors are perfectly balanced, and the execution is always top-notch.

Loved this place growing up but hadn't been here in a while. I appreciated that we were sat immediately on a Saturday as I remember there almost always being a wait when I was younger. We ordered a chicken sandwich, Reuben, Ahi Tuna wrap & a Chicken Salad quesadilla. Everyone seemed to like their food, but noticing that the chicken salad quesadilla wasn't quite the same portion or taste as I remembered. The service was great up until we were about to leave. Once we got our food we were never checked on again. We had to physically get up and find our waitress to ask for the check. Other than that, I love that the place is dog friendly and also that they have so much variety on their menu but the drink prices are a little pricey.

After an amazing walk through The Fairfield Botanical Gardens, we ventured out for lunch and came upon Deli Lane Cafe, which is exactly what this place is - a deli and a cafe. There was indoor / outdoor seating and we chose indoor due to the heat. Us five hungry patrons were quick order off of their rather comprehensive menu: * I had a wonderful Cobb Salad with chicken and a very tasty vinaigrette dressing. I really liked my choice * My wife had the same (Cobb Salad ) but with balsamic dressing, that she also liked * Our youngest son had a BLT with fries that he devoured * His fiancé had chicken tacos also with fries and there wasn't a crumb left * Her Mom had the same salad as my wife The service was very good and the prices were reasonable. All in all, I'd come back here in a New York minute!

Deli lane used to be our to go place for brunch or a late night meal during our college years. It been a long time since we dine here and this past Friday we decided to catch a meal. Dinners usually is less busy than brunch so luckily we were seated right away. Our waitress was super friendly and was very quick with our orders. We ordered a French onion soup to start and a caprese panini sandwich. The soup was tasty and was topped with a generous portion of melted cheese. The caprese panini was disappointing, very bland and the bread was not toasted enough. I know it been an icon for South Miami for a long time but I feel the food is not as good as I remember.

Best pancakes EVER! It was nice to go back so many years later and see the same menu items I enjoyed then still on the menu. My friend had the duck sandwich, which is a staple there. I had the nova platter and the pancakes. Like I said, best pancakes ever. Like ever. We went for brunch on the weekend. Per usual and as to be expected, it was packed. We sat at a 4 top in sunset tavern and waited a bit for our server. She had a lot of tables and since we hadn't been there for some time didn't mind hanging out and waiting, reminiscing. Food came out unbelievably fast, actually faster than the server brought over the Bloody Mary for my friend. Because she was busy it sat at the bar and we watched many many employees stand by it, walk passed it, grab their drinks and leave it there, not one single person brought it over to him. Mid way into our meal, the waitress appeared with it. Though service wasn't the best because server was extremely overwhelmed and "slammed", as we say in the biz, we still had a great experience and food was good. I'll be back just for the pancakes.

It is with a sense of regret to have to write this review. I've been a regular customer of Deli Lane for a decade or longer. The food quality is great, all of the employees are very nice and customer service-oriented, and the atmosphere is overall relaxed and enjoyable. Unfortunately, to its detriment, this restaurant is operated by the rudest, most unprofessional piss-poor excuse of a business owner that I've had the misfortune of meeting. Ever. Thank God for him that his staff are the opposite of him- his business wouldn't have lasted as long as it has without them. So, if you visit this establishment, I truly hope you won't experience or deal with him and his style of "customer service". Don't expect any form of positive experience other than bad to worse from this person: it's not his nature to be anything else.

As my daughter would say, " It isn't Sunday if were not at Deli Lane". I would say we have made it part of our weekend end schedule, but yes we're are here most Sundays for brunch. Let's begin with the quiche, my daughter make me call before we arrive to make sure they have quiche and which ones. I have tried a few of their quiches and I will name a few. Turkey Bacon and Chorizo. I wife and daughter live the Turkey Bacon, me on the other hand will tray any, well almost any. The past weekend I had the Chorizo, wow was that good. Ok, let's not get hung up on the amazingly delicious quiches they have. We also like the French Toast, I love the Blueberry Pancakes, my daughter loves the FIT Omelet. I have also tried a few of the Benedict's they make, I like the crab cake, when available. The muffins are awesome, you gotta ask to work them up. Coffee is good, I drink the iced latte which I think it's awesome, not so sweet like the coffee shops. Best of all, are you ready..... table service is back! Yes, no waiting in line to place your order, to them have them bring it to the table. Now you find a table, you have a seat and one of the porters will bring you menus. Let's not forget to mention the outside front patio dining. Nice vibe, good shade (they also have several umbrellas), nice little street where not many cars travel, and it's a one way. Yeah, I'm a fan what can I say.

I have been going to Deli Lane for years-- I've always loved the atmosphere and great service. The menu is reliably good and there are so many options to choose from. Over the years, I've been able to try lots of their plates, which has helped me narrow down my favorites. I was able to revisit again today for brunch and was not disappointed! I ordered the southwest huevos, and my friends ordered pancakes, veggie omelette, Lo-cal French toast and bacon, egg and cheese bagel. Clearly, there's so much to choose from! Even though I ordered the southwest huevos, my favorite is the veggie omelette -- I'm a big eater and I appreciate the selection of berries and healthy add ons. Can't wait to visit again soon!

Summary: Perfectly fine for breakfast after a run, it takes them a bit of time to refill your coffee, and you have to order at the counter and then wait at the table for your food. Word of advise: Always pick the Special of the day. At nights it becomes the Sunset Tavern, where the drinks aren't bad, but the live music is sometimes more annoying than helpful. Still, this is a staple of South Miami, and for a good reason: it may not be the best, but it's never bad. The Experience: The thing about going every single Saturday to the same spot is that it loses part of its charm, but I already vetoed the previous breakfast spot of my running group, so I guess we're sticking to Deli Lane... which is actually fine: The regular menu items (and I've tried a few) are almost always good, but (at least every Saturday morning) they also have a Special of the day, which is usually really good. Their coffee could use some improvement, and it takes a while to get refilled, but in the end, we spend like 3 or 4 hours having our breakfast and talking, and just for the ambiance and the talking-time it's worth it. The service is good, but you can tell the servers are overworked and could use a few more hands around. Then in the night, Deli Lane's Bruce Wayne becomes the Sunset Tavern's Batman. The drinks are just fine, but I think I'll stick to the beers, and I've heard several of the bands that play often... and all I can say is that most are not... of my taste... or any of my friends' tastes for that matter... However, it is still a good place to hang out, day or night, and it has a parking lot, which is small, but useful if you get there early. and... yes, I have lots of pictures here, but none of them are of the food and drinks, and Yelp is not the place to post just us having fun and eating and/or drinking :-p

In A Nutshell: -Deli Lane Cafe has really good breakfast deal called the, "Two Egg Power Up". -For $8.50 you get: 2 eggs your style with choice of bacon, sausage, ham or turkey, pancakes, house potatoes, tater tots or cheese grits. -You can ask for the blueberry pancakes too. Overall, this is a really good deal so if you attend The U (University of Miami) or live nearby, I would make this a stop to get your day started off on a good note.

Gear restaurant for breakfast, lunch or dinner. It's connected to sunset tavern which makes it convenient when you want to have good food and play pool while sipping on some good beer from the bar. Deli Lane Cafe is a staple here in south miami and all the locals love it here. Very family oriented and pets are allowed outside dining. They do have Covid procedures for anyone inquiring. Come check them out! They do have healthy options and protein powered meals as well.

Finally visited this place! I went with my friends and we had delicious food. Service was nice and I parked on the street using phone app for paying my parking. I had the turkey melt and it was fantastic if I could I will eat it every day. The bread was sensational with knots and raisins exactly the way I like it. And it was toasted and the turkey also had some sauce that I really like. Prices are not cheap but definitely reasonable for the quality of their food.

Last Saturday I met a friend at Deli Lane for brunch. For starters, I am not an advocate of getting in line to order & pay first, since the line was quite long and there were plenty of empty tables. But I respect their system nonetheless. The food was tasty -- I ordered the CrossFit Soul omelette with a side of grain toast and my friend ordered typical scrambled eggs with toast. The service was good and no one hurried us to finish which was nice.

An always reliable South Miami breakfast staple. If I had to recommend anything, it'd be the challah melt! Service is always fast and kind. It's always a great idea to get a table outside, they've worked hard to make sure most, if not all, the tables have shade.

I just visited about two weeks ago. I hadn't been in a very long time. The food was consistent. I had their breakfast meal that includes two eggs, toast, bacon and a pancake. Everything was fresh. The service was good and it was reminiscent of the early 2000s when I went there all the time. "Familiar favorite".

This is one of my cousins favorite places. Good muffins, they said. We stopped by for a weekday breakfast. Ordered inside and picked our table outside. Easy enough. I got the eggs Benedict which was huge and just about perfect for a Benedict with good poached eggs. I really loved the potatoes too. Coffee was solid and service was spot on. Outdoor seating was plentiful. A great choice near the U!

Had a pleasant breakfast here. You order and pay before you are seated. This makes it very convenient for you to simply leave when you are done eating. I had the chorizo frittata and it was DELICIOUS. Easy in & out breakfast. Staff was very nice !

I have been here multiple times in the past. It has always been great from the end of covid till now it just has been the best. Once I sat down the waiter was waiting for me. I ordered chicken tenders and Mac and Cheese. It was amazing!!! They were very quick and very kind. One of the menus had stuff on it like food stains but it didn't bother me. The bar was tittle too loud but they closed the doors. I recommend this place for breakfast or an early dinner.

I am 100% OBSESSED with Deli Lane. Amazing breakfast & lunches. Food is always delicious with high quality ingredients & always consistently fresh. My current go to is their SALMON MELT (Grilled fresh salmon fillet on pita with sliced tomato, romaine leaf, creamy Havarti and lime/caper sauce) although I usually ask for no cheese with a side of their SWEET POTATO FRIES. I could (& sometimes do) eat this everyday for lunch. It's that good...

Just following up from the owner's response. First I appreciate your response as that made me realize why this kind of thing happens a lot. As the most diverse country in the world, it is not hard to understand how much impact the racial discrimination would bring. The fact you point out the 1% tip at very beginning, can't be more obvious that you tend to "blame" the customers who say the opposite opinions. ( you even response " You had a bad day" to a customer who was upset about the quality of food and service. To answer your "1% tip", to be honest we asked the mommy server how's tip counted here and knew that all the servers actually "share the tip". That being said, all servers are certainly responsible for the customers even they are not at your "service area", from what I searched on Google. We would have tipped the mommy at least 20% or 25% tip as my usual tip to servers, but since all the servers actually share it, unfortunately all other servers were implicated by that lady who was being racist. We rather not tip anything than let this kind of thing continue to grow as there's enough "that's ok" for racial discrimination.. Despite being "relatively unreasonable on arguing whether shared tips means shared service to all customers or not", the common sense is that the server should answer when the customer calls him/her, the server should not ignore any customer. We as the customer, just simply say what we noticed, what happened and what we felt. It's not easy to bring this extremely serious issue up unless the people are really affected by that. Your "throwing the language around to folks who don't deserve" would probably be the perfect way to blur the truth by covering it with your direct thoughts without spending time proving it. By scrolling down the reviews I can see that many people used to like this restaurant very much, maybe something that keeps happening makes those old customers change their mind, and it is not easy for the old customers to change their mind

A long time diner in South Miami. I have dined here in the past and it's been a while so I decided to stop in for breakfast. I ordered eggs over easy, bacon, Belgian waffle with strawberries and banana. My companion had strawberry and banana pancakes. The good. Food was excellent and arrived promptly. The place was tidy and outdoor dining was pleasant as we beat the stifling heat at 9am on a lovely Saturday morning. The guests seemed to enjoy their meals and it wasn't noisy with the exception of construction renovations across the street (not their fault). The bad. They have a most unusual way to order food. They have no host/ess to greet or seat you. They have no waiter/ess to take your order. You have to stand in a ridiculous line and wait, and wait until you reach a register to order your food. Then you get handed a number and silverware and make your way to a table or indoor seating area. They have absolutely no one attending to you to see if you need more coffee, water etc. I saw one guest have to get up to retrieve salt and pepper from another table. Since you pay in advance you have to guesstimate a tip because well, you have no clue as to what service is like. And frankly, there is no service. They have staff take your food to you and come remove items as you complete your meal. In this day and age why wouldn't they have a host and wait staff to take your order electronically and sent to the kitchen? They also can have you take care of the bill electronically. Hello! This is 2023...you know. I can only imagine that the line of people are local to South Miami and have little options around. The food is good, the atmosphere is pleasant. The execution is lacking. I don't anticipate a return here. There are far too many other places that offer good food , way better service, and a better dining experience.

This is a place where is first come first serve for seating and you order up at the counter and they bring the food out to your number on the table. I had the French onion soup and it was delicious. We ordered the kids just a side of bacon since they had already ate breakfast. But definitely recommend this place for a breakfast before it gets crowded

Today we went to eat a late lunch at Deli Lane. We had about a 30 minute wait due to the fact that there was the art show going on in the area, so the wait didn't bother us. After a good, 15 to 20 minute wait, our waiter finally approached us. He did not introduce himself or tell us his name. I explained to him that we needed two separate checks, we're at that point he rolled his eyes. I asked him if there was a problem, splitting our checks and he rudely responded "I don't know. Is there a problem ". I proceeded to tell him to go ahead and put it on one check, where he promptly responded "fine, great ". We patiently waited there for 30 minutes to get a glass of water the table next to us which sat a good 20 minutes after we did got their drinks and waters. Needless to say, I will never return to eat at this restaurant ever again. I have never ever met such a rude person in my life.

Breakfast this morning was not up to par. Unbelievable. I could tell almost immediately that was going to be the case. It took way longer than normal. The eggs looked like some I would have made. And to top it off they were COLD.I brought t to the attention of the manager on duty she said well you should have said something. Very true but I didn't. Just disappointing! My advice going forward SPEAK UP AND RIGHT AWAY!

Tasty food! The place needs to get together with the bar. The wait time for a drink is too long. The bartenders are great! But they can't keep up. The place needs one more to satisfy the demand.

DO NOT support the owner of this business. He is rude, unprofessional and will count the minutes you are wasting spending his precious time occupying his tables. The staff is amazing, but my girlfriend and I who are regulars and spend hundreds every month at Deli lane will not be back. We were sitting in the back, minding our own business, ordering food and coffees while we spent an hour or two working on our laptops. The owner came out of nowhere and sarcastically implied we were less than intelligent by sitting at a larger table. We told him we'd only been there for an hour and had just finished our meal, to which he replied that he had been watching me 3 weeks ago and counted the time I spent in his restaurant (ordering food and coffees the whole time, in the middle of the day when there was hardly any customers to begin with, and leaving a good tip). To top it all off, when my girlfriend had replied we'd only been there for an hour and would be happy to leave and take our business elsewhere if he was going to treat regular customers like this, he leaned in and looked her in the face and said "Well aren't YOU a little bundle of JOY.' and stormed off into the kitchen. Unprovoked. Out of nowhere. We will not be back. And we will not be bringing any large parties here. He will watch you and count every minute you spend in his chairs, even if 99% of them are empty. He will probably reply to this with some elaborate story, but this is exactly how he just treated his regular customers that knew and loved his staff. I can't imagine how he'd treat a stranger.

This place is always a solid choice for any time of day. The staff are always welcoming and friendly. The environment is always very relaxed and enjoyable. I try new things from here all the time just for variety purposes and so far I have not tried anything I would not order again. The French toast is sweet and fluffy. The pizzas are good. The pressed duck sandwich is delicious. Their quesadillas have great flavor. So many choices it's hard for someone not to find something they don't like! Definitely recommend this spot.

I have loved this restaurant over the years and food has been pretty good. This last visit I am sorry but post COVID they have totally messed up everything. So first off they are now forcing all customers to stand in line to go inside to order and pay for food. There are markers on floor inside to space but line went way outside and everyone is bunched up big risk. Second after over 30 min wait to order I finally got a table. Waited about 20 min and food was warm not appealing and just not worth the wait. I think this may be my last time at this place

We had lunch here and was surprised to see that you have to order the food inside instead of having servers. Delicious Reuben sandwich with quality meat. It's nice to sit outside and enjoy your food but would prefer they come and take the order instead of having to place it inside and wait.

Came here for a late breakfast with my dogs. They've switched up the way ordering is done since the last time I was there and require you to order inside and they bring it to your table. The line to order was out the door leaving very little room for people to slide by to use the bathroom or go inside. I feel like logistically some things need to be adjusted

I'm sorry but the eggs were horrible. They have that powdery egg consistency while being undercooked. I've been coming here for years and the food quality is getting worse every time. I don't come to get fake eggs.

Deli Lane is a trip down memory lane. It's a legendary restaurant in South Miami serving delicious breakfast for decades so expect classic dishes done right and old school friendly service. I came here on a random weekday after a doctor's appointment. I walked in and was immediately greeted by a friendly server. I opted to sit inside even though the weather was nice enough to sit at their spacious terrace. The menu is pretty extensive so there's something for everyone here. I was craving for eggs benedict so I got the Floridian Benedict (Toasted English Muffin, Poached Eggs, Crispy Bacon, Tomato, Avocado, Hollandaise Sauce). Wow! I was impressed by the size of this dish. I think it's enough to split but I was famished :) The bacon was very crispy, poached eggs were gooey and potatoes had nice crunch. Were they the best benedicts? Not sure but it was satisfyingly delicious. The benedict was $16 plus I also got coffee, so for around $20, it was indeed a happy morning!

Solid brunch place. Good with all the classics. Beware of the pancakes they are enormous I usually get the short stack.

I have eaten in this restaurant many several times, and I have never been disappointed. The menu is vast, the service is great, and the atmosphere is eclectic. Many people frequent this spot and come get their food from here. On this last visit, I took my wife here for a pre Mother's Day breakfast/brunch. She had the Eggs Benedict with Potatoes. I had the Egg Omelete with Tater Tots and low stack of Pancakes (See Pictures). Everything was good, but the Pancakes was amazing, fluffy, full of flavor, and cooked perfectly. We will return, soon!

Great comfort food and environment if you are looking a relaxed hang out spot in the South Miami area.

I don't give this place 5 stars because all the TVs are on CNN. Why? Why not put half of the TVs on FOX. CNN spreading lies 24/7. FOOD is excellent but the choice for news is terrible

1st time visiting this restaurant and ordering something with friends. The restaurant staff did not bother how the process works when ordering in their establishment. The personwho rang my order up was annoyed on me decidingwhat to order since she called me to come up from the line and place the other, eventhough I was reviewingthe menu. After placing the order she told me take this number and you can find a table and seat. The waiterwill bring out your food. The Orange juice was tasty not too sour or sweet. The coffee however even though I ask for 2 spoons of sugar it did not taste sweet at all they forgot to add the sugar so I had to add the sugar packets manually. As for the meal I forgot to take a photo of it however it was the western omelet, Came with a small cup of berries and fruit as well a side of toast. The look and feel is a little like a familish sports bar where you see a lot of Tv's mounted on the wall showing various sports

We used to live in the neighborhood and came here every Sunday for breakfast. It was great to sit outside, enjoy a nice breakfast and people watch. I haven't been here in a while but the atmosphere is still the same. I ordered the lo carb Benedict which came with three poached eggs, Canadian bacon, deli turkey slices and hollandaise sauce. It was good. I'd order it again. My friend had the French toast which came with fruit. She said it was good. She also ordered a cup of fruit and some toast for her 2 year old niece. Service was great and we were in and out within an hour. Parking is free in the lot off SW 73rd Street.
