WOW!!! A hidden gem. The owner is sweet, charming, and the best cuban chef in our city. This is a new weekly spot for me! We ordered many things to sample and I would literally get anything off her menu!!!

Best Latin food around. My team and I love going here for lunch. You can make a meal out of empenadas alone!

Really cute place with a super sweet owner. Im vegan & she made something special for me that wasnt on the menu. Will be returning. Good vibes & amazing food!

Good food, and quite exotic & colorful too! However, they only have their menu on Facebook! Cmon, its not hard to make some 10 cent black & white copies and put them on the counter. No follow-through! Also, the inside is very cluttered, like somebodys closet! Even if they dont offer dine-in, they still need to make the inside appealing to the eye. Gives off a bad first impression. Other than that, the storefront outside is eye-catching with bold colors. Youll only wait 15 minutes for your carry-out. Give it a try!

Very friendly & accommodating staff. The owner comes out of the kitchen to interact also. The food was delicious & authentic... didnt have to wait for it long at all. It was a special event menu but they made something special for the child that came with us. Coffee was perfect & the tres leches cake was one of the best things Ive eaten this year! Diamond in the rough.

Pretty cool spot, especially if youre an avid hookah-smoker. I love me an authentic-feeling hookah venue. The staff was super friendly. Our waiter could not speak English very well, but to me that adds to the authenticity of the experience, although the language barrier can be somewhat frustrating, it really wasnt a problem for us. He was attentive and helpful.

Review №13

Very cool little place to grab some authentic cuisine. The dining area has a small south Florida cafe vibe which gives plenty to look at and talk about while waiting for your food. The food was very tasty and coffee was excellent! The only reason why I didnt five 5 stars was that it took a little longer than average to get served and food to make it out of the kitchen. But if youre not in a rush it is a great dining experience, without having to go to a trendy restaurant area like Ohio City, or Tremont.

This gem of a place is becoming a favorite! Im obsessed with their cafe con leche! Brings memories from when I was a child in PR, and grandma made me coffee! The sandwiches and empanadas are delicious! The art, and gallery the owner displays is cultural and beautiful! The owner, and workers are friendly, and go above and beyond, to make sure youre pleased with your order!

The food, cafe con leche & service we received was absolutely amazing. The salchipapas are a must try. I’ve had Ecuadorian Salchipapas and trying a different take on them here was great! The environment is cute and small. If you’re in the area I definitely recommend you stop in!

This place is AMAZING. The food is fantastic! The owner, who is also the chef, is talented in creating beautiful food and art, as her paintings adorn this creatively decorated restaurant. Ive loved everything Ive had here, its hard to choose a favorite dish!

Wonderful food. Wonderful people. My only complaint is that they should be open longer hours. If you have not been to this place, you are really missing out on a flavorful experience.

Excellent service. We stopped in shortly before closing. The owner and staff made us feel at home during our 1st visit. The food was fresh and seasoned great. The expresso was an authentic flavor. We will be back!

Review №27

Different food, it was good. The decor was strange and the space could be utilized better to add a couple extra tables and for easier mobility. Cafe con leche and cortadito are good. Enjoyed the empanadas. They are fried, but not too greasy.

Good food - bad business practices. A friend Ana took me here months ago. Tight seating, but good food. Planned to meet up with Ana last week with some friends - a 30min drive to find the place closed. If you are going to be closed earlier than normal - you need to post it. I was online looking for special so nothing said closed. The next day, I did see that someone asked about taco tue and it wasnt until she responded that she said she would be closed (that was late in the afternoon). So if you had an appt why would you not take to facebook (her only social media presence) and post it? Ana said this was the 3rd time she has experienced the place being closed without notice. She lives 10min away. Ana said she will not be back after this latest incident. Even this past Sunday (Feb 29) - online says hrs 11:30 - 5pm FB (Google 11:30 - 3pm). She poster at 3:19 that she would be closed for the day. How is that helpful 4 hrs after you are suppose to be open?

Enjoyed an excellent lunch at Sabor Miami this weekend so I figured Id add in yet another 5 star review! Started with a cafe colada which was much sweeter than I anticipated but still very sumptuous and delicious. The Cuban and Hawaiian empanadas were everything I need them to be- warm, cheesy, and packed with yummy toppings.

Review №33

I rarely rate places as often as I should, but Sabor Miami Cafe DEFINITELY deserves the rating. It is a very small, cozy restaurant that is brimming with homemade vibes. It is tucked away and bit hard to find but once you do youll find yourself going back for more.The staff is very very friendly, and the owner/cook is makes you feel at home. The food does take time to come out, but that is because it is made to order and made from scratch. The drink selection is fantastic, the Horchata is one of the best drinks I have had in a very long time. If youre ever off of Broadview near Parma/Brookpark definitely check them out.

Cleveland is proud to have Sabor Miami! The food is amazingly authentic and delicious. The location is small and the food is real so be patient. I can honestly say there isnt anything ive tried that i didnt like! I am very appreciative my friends let me know about this place- I dont make it to that neighborhood often and might have missed it!

Lovely little establishment for Latin food, coffees and beverages.Its a quaint spot and very friendly, however cash only, so if you come please be ready for that!The help answered all questions quickly and also made quick little accommodations for my kids (my daughter said she would love an umbrella in her pancake, so they did!).Over all, highly recommended!

Review №43

Food was decent but took over an hour to get.. Parking situation is not favorable only a couple spots available and god forbid you park at the convenient store (its a shared lot of probably a total of 4 spots) I parked at the convenient store not knowing it wasnt allowed as it was my first time visiting.. the convenient store owner came out of the store to tell me I couldnt park there. I had already gotten both of my kids out of their car seats and in the stroller at this time so thats super annoying. Probably wouldnt visit again just based off of that.

Review №44

Sabor Miami is a gem! They do coffee and lunch during the day and themed dinners in the evening so the menu is always changing and they arent always open. The place is small, this isnt the Olive Garden. The food is all made by hand and with tons of care. The various Caribbean and Central American flavors are just amazing. For those that have a true appreciation for food and authenticity, you will love this placeI love the atmosphere, Its more of a friends and family feel.

Review №48

Everything about Sabor is lovely. I had the mojito coffee, cubano and a few empanadas. The coffee was very different but very delicious. The Cuban was top notch. Better than the supposed best in Tampa, FL. If youre in a hurry, you may want to order ahead of time. Theres a bit of a wait for the food but trust me, its totally worth it! Cant wait to go back!

Great place!! Cuban sandwich ranks at the top. This is a place you want to see succeed. The owner could not be nicer. If you work in the area, make this your lunch place. The art work and decor come straight from the owners heart. I can’t say enough. Try it. Spread the word.

Review №53

I may be biased, but the food and environment here are unique. Not many places in the state offer a solid colada with empanadas. I recommend it, and trust me, the wait is worth it.

Review №54

I love taking my family here! The food has never been disappointing yet, and Ive been here about six or seven times. Theyve got a really interesting selection of drinks to choose from as well as a mouth watering menu. Their sweet items for lunch are good, like the key lime pancakes, but I prefer the more savory food items like their sandwiches and empanadas. Their empanadas could be their own rewarding meal in their own if you buy a few. The food takes a while to get to you but only because they make it make it to order. They dont make food ahead of time.

Review №55

The food was great. The atmosphere was great. Very much feel like you are there with family. The only thing about my experience there was it was very Cold. Not the food just the ambient temperature of the Cafe.Overall a very good experience and I will be back to try more menu items.

Review №58

Its a small, very small place. The food tasted good; however, they gave our food to someone else, then took it back and brought it to our table. We moved from our table so they could sit a bigger group where we were seated (mind you we had a wheelchair) not good becuase it is so small and crowded. What I could not believe after all of this and forgetting some of our food they changed us over $50 for 2 sandwiches, 1 pancakes, 1 empenada, 1tostones and 2 drinks. I could have gone to Olive Garden and had a better experience.

This food does Miami food justice and then some. We were traveling in Cleveland from Miami and we’re missing some good Cuban food. We’re so glad this restaurant was recommended to us by an employee at our hotel. We ate ham and cheese empanadas, beef empanadas, Cuban toast, and steak sandwiches and everything was delicious. You can tell the food is fresh and made from scratch each day. The owner is very friendly and you can tell she cares about her customers. Our waitress was also very nice and attentive. We will be back for sure! We highly recommend this restaurant.

Review №80

Don’t judge a book but it’s cover! This place seems to be a hole in the wall in a strip mall. But I can honestly say they had some of the best coffee I have ever had. Try the Mayan Mocha or the Caribbean Spice Latte, and you won’t be disappointed! The empanadas were delicious and the sweet plantains and Tostones were done perfectly.The servers were excellent, and the Grandmother was awesome to talk with. I thought about knocking off a star because the food didn’t come out at the same time and it took a bit longer than we thought it would. But they were very apologetic about the wait even though we never complained. And we had such a great experience that can’t give anything but 5 stars!

Review №99

I liked the coffee: espresso, cafe con leche, and Mayan mocha (a unique coffee drink). Their best sandwich is the frita burger -- nothing that youd ever find at a burger joint! There are unique interpretations of pancakes: pineapple upside down, cinnamon swirl, key west lime, and pecan. The service was acceptable but not nearly as prompt as a chain restaurant.
