Eli's Cafe — Restaurant in Coral Gables

Stumbled into this little gem after looking for breakfast options while I waited for my car to be serviced near by. I used google maps and it took me to the outside of a comercial building without any obvious sign of the cafe. Puzzled I walked into the building to ask and they pointed me towards the parking area and there it was, cozily set up in the parking entrance with a few tables ready for service.

The menu has plenty of options (several reviews include it so I’ll skip that), service was prompt and friendly, prices are very reasonable and before I could check a few things on my phone they said my order was ready.

The bagel sandwich was tasty with soft, fresh bagel covering the perfectly cooked scrambled eggs and bacon. Based on this experience I have to imagine their omelettes are serious.

All in all, highly recommended and make sure you don’t miss it (peak inside...

I will no longer order from this Cafe. I had ordered breakfast with a mamey shake. When I received it I notice it was pretty much water with color I had to throw it away. I decided to give them another try. In their menu it shows French bread with eggs and cheese, bacon or ham for $4.50 or 2 for $8. I told her I wanted that with no bacon nor ham just the French bread with egg and cheese. I also ordered the English Muffin with egg and cheese priced at $2.50 in the menu which they gave it to me stapled in the bag on my previous order. When asked for the total it was more than what I had calculated. I called back and requested the break down. They were charging me $1 extra for the cheese in each item even though it is included and I was not taking the bacon nor ham. Also, a surcharge fee of .59 cents even though I was paying cash...

Ordered a tuna sandwich with French baguette and a Mamey milkshake. The tuna in the sandwich was not bad but not great. The baguette was disgusting it was super hard, stale and crumbly. I was looking into drinking then I mamey shake, which is my favorite. I can’t even believe how this restaurant cause that a mamey shake. It was a bright red color like a tomato; mamey is nowhere near that color. So I called and asked what they made it with in they said that they made it with frozen mamey and that they did 50% water and 50% milk, specifically when I ordered I only ordered 100% milk no water. And they still added water it was disgusting. When have you ever heard that a milkshake takes water Will not be ordering from them again. I wanted to give them a shot this would be the fifth time that they mess up or give me...
