nicky willisSeptember 2, 2013Highly recommend David's! The prices are good, the service was friendly and the food is great. Nice place to go, chill and eat good food. I had the chicken salad sandwich and the coffee is amazing!
Earthangel172April 20, 2013Order the ropa viejo with moros and fried sweet plantain. Very delicious. Service at the window is reasonably quick. The staff doesn't speak English well. Will try the cafe cubano tonight!
Art Directors ClubMarch 26, 2013When you need a pick-me-up, walk up to the window at David’s Café and order yourself a café Cubano (Cuban coffee). There are many varieties of potency so choose your poison wisely.
Cedric Love ParisJuly 23, 2012Open 24h right off Washington Ave where most of the clubs are. So if you feel drunk just grab something by the to go window !! Empanadas de Pollo o Carne y Cafe con leche !! Remember say gracias- Following Larios, Miami Culinary Tours will take you to David's Cafe. At this food stop in the food tour you'll enjoy a cuban coffee paired with a cuban pastry.
Fidel SemperAugust 21, 2013If you're late for dinner, up for a bite after midnight, and yet you're at the south beach, this is the place for Cuban! Never surprised, 24/7.
WorldLoungeRadio.comJanuary 28, 2013Remember when this place was about 1/10 of the size it is now? There was just one long faux wood countertop with backless swivel stools and you never knew who would come in & sit next to you.
rozi dociJuly 10, 2011Get the Cuban french toast- absolutely delicious. Amazing caffe con leche! If you order any eggs get the Cuban bread instead of whole wheat or white toast.
Keith SoiferSeptember 19, 2011Good cubana food, reasonable prices n friendly, efficient service by SoBe standards. Most recent of several visits.Will return on next visit 2 SoBe. Milk flan dekiciosa
Alejandra OwensOctober 15, 2011Iced cafe con leche is rich and decadent, Cuban french toast is on point and the walk up window is full of pastries and alfajores!
Carter BaileyAugust 9, 2013The cafe cubano, whole wheat pancakes with bananas, and the Cuban French toast are all great!
Josephine BotchwaySeptember 5, 2013Was hoping to run into Chad Ochocinco since that's one of his fav spot. lol Had a light breakfast there, Oatmeal, and didn't stay long. Didn't really get to try their main dishes.would do again- Awesome cafe Cubano here -
Ms. HazeNovember 26, 2013Best Cuban food thus far. It's been about 10 years that I've been on this spot and they haven't failed me yet.
DECOBIKENovember 18, 2011Miamians love their cuban coffee and this is THE place to get it. Decobike members get 10% OFF here, just show them your Decobike membership card.- Great guava pastelito! Try them at the south beach food tour
Gizem KucukalpelliAugust 23, 2013Lovely cuban restaurant:) i especially recommend sandwich de pescado.
Alla GurevichJanuary 13, 2012Great food, service is a bit slow but worth it. Try a mango banana juice (or milkshake)
Krysta RMarch 28, 2014Sitting inside? Ask for the sandwich menu. They bring you the overpriced menu first.
Kingsley OriakuJanuary 5, 2013Sit at da bar bcuz the service sucks but the food is excellent. 1 reason da service might suck is bcuz da tip is already included in the check. So there's no incentive for the waitress 2even try...
Jeff CornettOctober 23, 2011The best Vaca Frita I've had in a restaurant. They know how to get the outside crispy.
Cecile GeorgeMarch 19, 2014Nothing like a grilled ham, pork, and cheese sandwich after a hard night's work. With pickles. David's does it up p lovely.- Try the cafe Cubano at the window, best colada in town! Miamiculinarytours.com
VISU ARTISTSApril 1, 2013For a quick breakfast order from the takeout window a "cortadito with sugar and guava (pastry)."
Theresa GApril 5, 2011make sure to ask for the cuban toast and cafe con leche with breakfast- well worth the extra 50 cents
LOVE THE FOOD.. IF YOU WANT THE SAME CUBAN CUISINE FOR CHEAPER HIT PUERTO SAUGUA DOWN THE STREET!
Jason YehMarch 25, 2011truly the best cafe con leche. Try even if u are lactose haha, it's that tasty.
TimMarch 26, 2013cafe cubano con leche the ONLY way to drink it in SoBe!!! I missed Ochocinco though! LOL- Robert CharlesDecember 30, 2011Sandwiches feed two. A little cortadito on your way out is buenisimo.
Dennis BernhardDecember 11, 2010The Cuban sandwhich is amazing and huge. it comes with fried chip strips too
LoveMiamiBlogJuly 11, 2012Thief!… Despite vowing never to go back to David’s Cafe after lousy food and service there... See
Ingrid NagyMay 12, 2013Curbside cheaper than counter but either way not real Cuban- it's a 1 dollar everywhere in Cuba
