Graziano's Mercado at The Lifetime Building

Dear Graziano's Management, I am writing to share some feedback regarding my recent experiences at your market next to Trader Joe's in the Gables. I have always been a big fan of Graziano's restaurants in Miami and used to love visiting this market. However, over the past few months, I have noticed a decline in both the quality of the food and the level of service, which has unfortunately led me to reconsider my visits. Previously, the market was managed efficiently, and the manager was always friendly and attentive. In contrast, the current staff seems disinterested and more focused on chatting amongst themselves than attending to customers. Their interactions often feel insincere, with 'thank you' and 'have a good day' coming across as rehearsed rather than genuine. Moreover, the lack of English-speaking personnel is concerning. While I appreciate Miami's diverse Latin community, it is important to cater to all customers, including those who do not speak Spanish. There is no effort to greet us with a simple 'good morning', and in recent visits our orders were frequently incorrect due to communication barriers. This has been quite frustrating and detracts from the overall experience. I genuinely miss the cozy, high-quality, and excellent service that Graziano's market used to offer. I hope my feedback is taken into consideration and that improvements can be made to restore the market to its former glory.

Whether you're grabbing a quick bite or sitting down for a leisurely meal, the quality and consistency are exceptional. The service is fast and friendly, and the atmosphere effortlessly balances casual dining with gourmet flair. A perfect stop whether you're coming from the gym, meeting with friends, or just craving top-quality food in a stylish and convenient location. An outstanding addition to The Lifetime Building—highly recommended.

LOVED this place! Such a cool mix of a café, restaurantish lol, wine shop, decadent pastry porn lol, fresh, tast looking meats, and some groceries. It's got an Argentinian flavor, and I'm now curious to visit the other locations as well. There's indoor as well as outdoor seating and just a cool vibe. The only thing I think could've been better was the service, which was kind of indifferent. I'd add that I went in during a slack time(late for lunch and early for dinner) which being in the hospitality industry myself, know can affect staff vibe. Still, I'd highly recommend this location and am now curious to visit their other locations. Such a pleasure to be here and it's natural mood booster! Enjoy!

This location is by far the best Graziano’s. You are always greeted with a warm & friendly smile by employees that are happy to help. The quality and consistency of the food is truly exceptional!!! The restaurant’s overall appearance and atmosphere is welcoming. For those foodies looking for a great restaurant and value make sure to add this location to your list. Cheers!

I love this place because they offer typical Argentine dishes, and in my opinion, they're the best in the city of Miami. I always go in the morning because they have an excellent team with personalized service. All the women are super friendly and professional. I truly enjoy every visit because of their product and service. I highly recommend it"

It looks like they recently open. Our order took a little longer to get. My husband ordered a fettuccine to share with my toddler because they don't have a kids menu yet( it was okay... not a pasta place), and I ordered clasic milanesa with vegetables. My food was the best, and the portions were very generous. My husband also had some of my food. The servers are very nice and friendly.

This is my favorite Graziano’s in Coral Gables. It’s big, employees are very friendly a professional. They have good quality of meat to buy to get home. And an abundant selection of red wine, and all good and tasty things. I have eaten here several times because I work out in the gym that is in front of the store and is always good!

Graziano's Market at Lifetime Coral Gables offers a delightful experience for Argentine cuisine lovers. The entraña (skirt steak) is seasoned and grilled to tender, juicy perfection, capturing the authentic parrilla flavor and pairs well with their signature chimichurri. However…. I have to say I had better entrañas . The choripán sandwich features flavorful chorizo with a slight smoky kick, nestled in crusty bread. The addition of fresh chimichurri adds a bright, tangy layer that enhances every bite. Both dishes showcase Graziano's commitment to quality and tradition, making it a top choice for a quick but memorable meal and also they have kimbo caffe’ my favorite coffee brand of all times!! Tell them Flavia sent you 😉

Your favorite Argentinian empanadas are just in this marketplace. Pick the ones we tried and you wil them. with raisins, dates and , onion and cheese, three cheeses, and caprese. Drink with a warm cinammon cappuchino paired with the classic dulce de leche alfajol and your visit will be more than complete. They also serve lunch and dinner, so any execuse it is good to visit Graziano's market. Gracias totales to the manager, Yasmi, who personalized our coffee with his barista technique and went far and beyond to provide us with the best service and group picture!

Went for dinner on Sunday & to watch the Copa de America final (I am from Argentina, so I am pretty used to good Argentine food) the food definitely needs improvement. I had a beef breaded steak (milanesa simple) and it is almost impossible to eat- the cut of meat they use its probably the cheapest available, full of nerves and chewy! I had it with a side of mashed potatoes (it was cold). The empanadas are decent. The pastries (facturas) are below average (dried and stale) not sure if it was because it was Sunday. Service/Staff are super nice and accommodating- which made up for the "below-average" food. Pricing is not wild, but not cheap and for the quality of the food- it makes no sense. Either sell better quality food or lower prices!

I was invited to Graziano's Mercado for a girls night out! This store is a market store from their main restaurant a few blocks away. If you would like to opt in for a casual dine, this is a good place to visit. It's a perfect place to grab a bottle of wine and drink to people watch or to share with company. There is plenty of space to sit down, inside and outside. The market has a variety of spreads and station. There's a salad and desert area to order from as well as a full menu. It gives the same vibes as a food hall. I got their breaded chicken with a side of rice. The service is pretty fast. There are also computers where you can self order as well. I look forward to my next visit here again.

Great breakfast option for this area. Came here for breakfast. Options are varied. I had the goat cheese and spinach omelette 1/2 portion with a side of bacon. The omelette--as all breakfast entrees--comes with a side of your choice fried potatoes or hash and endless American coffee. The potatoes were great as was the omelette, with copious amounts of goat cheese. The bacon was delicious!! Service was quick and friendly. Coffee was served limitlessly; a marked contrast to my stand by favorite breakfast place. Parking is tricky: in the building, off street or a small lot near the Passport office. Ambiance is a plaza; think la plaza mayor in any Spanish architectural city.

I've never met a Graziano's that I didn't like, so imagine my excitement when I discovered there was a new one in the Lifetime building where my beloved Trader Joe's is! It's got all the makings of the perfect Graziano's market- specialty Argentinian goods for you to take home and cook, as well as fresh meats and prepared foods. They e also got a nice wine selection. Onto the bakery, they're serving up breakfast, lunch and dinner. I opted for an omelette and I loved that you could get a half order for under $10. The half order was huge and I could barely finish it. Service was super friendly, and similar to the rest of Graziano's markets. You order, get a buzzer, and they bring you the food. There is indoor and outdoor seating. Have no fear of outdoor seating in the summer, as it is part of a covered patio from the building. The perfect fuel before a Trader Joe's trip!

I love the new Graziano's location! It's perfect, it's the one place in Miami that has convenient parking. Love the outdoor terrace, love the giant fans even more. The food is fresh and well priced. The empanadas are delicious and the small market is just what we needed in the area. Thank you Mario!

This place opened up and right across from the lifetime building that has living quarters and their luxury gym. It has an are where you can purchase their high quality meat from their deli to take home and cook. They also have where you can dine in and choose from their pasta dishes, sandwiches, and steak too! Super delicious we have had their steak and sandwiches l. They are such a good portion size and definitely worth a try if you are in the area. They also have a desert section in the back with lots of delicious treats you can pick from! They have indoor and outdoor seating. They also offer mimosa so great place to come and have a drink too with friends!

Excellent service, the food is amazing all the time, the atmosphere is great ! Definitely I recommend the restaurant, make sure you try it.

Came for a lunch date & loved the spot. The ambiance is amazing. We sat outside & the vibes were really nice. Felix the manager took care of us and his attention to detail was magnificent. I will definitely be coming back again! Btw, the empanadas were top tier (:

Do NOT recommend the burger-it was burnt, dry and horrible. Drinks took way longer than food - service was off. Order vacio & mashed potatoes-that was very good. Nitro sure we will be back...

We've tried their pastries, their burgers, their steak sandwich, their empanadas... None of it was very good at all. Good happy hour sangria special and a nice peaceful outdoor seating area though.

Love this place. Variety of food and the service always excellent. Highly recommended.

Horrible attitude from the employees they are only nice when the owner is around. I asked them to make me a fresh tequeno or heat one up for me and the guy said: "no. They are from today..." They need to Learn about Customer service specially if u are located in a Luxury property Went back and told the manager (the short one) and he didn't care...

Excellent food Great ambiance Good selection I will definitely come back to try more meals

They need a new manager at this location. He is rude and unethical. I complained about something and he gave me this "I don't care" attitude. I only go to the other coral gables location. They are Much nicer there.

Kind of fu fu (bougie) for me, but it was ok. I'd go back. Clean, fast service. Decent selection.

Overheard the manager talk negatively about another customer I find this extremely unprofessional. The manager and a few employees are only nice when the owners are around.

So happy they opened a 2nd location in the Gables...entrance right across from Lifetime Gym! Consistently great quality food (lots of healthy and sweet selections) and friendly service. Awesome wine selection and happy local Argentinian vibes! Vast selection of gourmet items like olive oils and pastas at the market!

I love this place! The food is really good, the place is nice, its like a cafeteria or a nice place to have a dinner or any meal. The empanadas, entraña, wow! The service is good and the ambiance is really nice. I recommend this place 100%.

Graziano's Mercado in the Lifetime Building in Coral Gables is a great place to eat or pick up food. The staff is outstanding, particularly Yasmanly! He is so helpful and patient, even when the business is busy and crowded.

Would give no stars if possible. Both orders of churrasco were rotten. In shock because the other Graziano's Mercados I've had have been incredible.

Great food. Good service. Scarlett was a wonderful server. You must try the Happy hour special!
