Really flavorful

I did come here specifically wanting the cachapa and they were out, so that was a bummer but I ended up with their burger and really enjoyed it, great sauce. The fries were a little boring, I’d probably skip them in the future.

My go to vegan spot in Brickell

I’ve tried just about every gluten free option at the cocinita and love this place 😍😂

The lentil soup and Choricachapa are my favorites! I highly recommend the #5 smoothie with the chia seeds.

Pros: Hospitality, Gluten free options, Consistently amazing

Incredible Vegan Burgers & Yuca Fries!

The burgers are absolutely amazing! So flavorful and satisfying. The fried yuca was perfectly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Such a great spot for delicious vegan comfort food. I will definitely be back!

Pros: 100% vegan menu with amazing flavors

Best vegan find in awhile!

My husband found this place by doing a Google search for restaurants near our hotel that had vegan food. I'm so glad that this place popped up on his search because it was phenomenal!
The whole restaurant is vegan and most is the dishes are also gluten free or can be made gluten free.

We decided to split a few things to try, which included:
French Fries with a side of Yummy Sauce
The Choricachapa
Mr Mitrano Burger with a lettuce wrap instead of a bun

All were so tasty and seemed very clean. The service and atmosphere were also spot on. I highly recommend this place if you're in the area looking for good vegan and gluten free choices.

Pros: Fully vegan menu, Almost everything gluten free, Cleaner food

So good!!

Excellent!! I'm only in town for a day for business, and I'm so glad I found this restaurant! The food was so flavorful and fresh, the staff were welcoming and kind, and it is a beautiful restaurant with lots of fresh greenery. Next time I'm in Miami, I will definitely be coming back.

Pros: Delicious and fresh food, Beautiful , Good portions for the price

Cons: It's not in NYC where I live 😏

Amazing food, fantastic service!!!

What a great find! The service was great, the dining area was small and quaint. All the food was amazing!!!!
We got the following:
Cheese Empanada - perfectly fried and deliciously cheesy. I normally don’t care much for vegan cheese but I really loved this.

French Fries were a thin style fry, a lot like McDonald’s which some may not like but before becoming Vegan I loved their fries so this was a great treat!!

Yummy Burger has caramelized onions, mushrooms, cheese, etc and was like a mushroom Swiss amazing!!

Goody Burger more like a basic cheeseburger.

I also got their fresh squeezed orange juice which was also incredible!
Can’t recommend enough!!!!

Very convenient for downtown

After a very long food-free day of travel having this little gem a few mins walk from my hotel was a boon. I was greeted by a very friendly server who stepped me through the online ordering and gave me excellent recommendations. The food came out quickly on a tray. I’ll definitely be back to try some more of the menu

Pros: Quick and friendly service, Food good

Cons: Music a bit loud if you wanted to talk, Seating more functional than comfortable

Great option in the heart of Brickell

Visited before and enjoyed the food, but particularly after running the Miami Marathon last Sunday, the vegetable soup and rice plate with plantains, avocado, plant based crumble and beans literally took me from passing out to life. They also offer a vegan happy meal, which was my daughter’s first one! That joy is something I’ll always remember!

Pros: Kids happy meal!, Spanish plates and bowls!, Burgers

Totes amazeballs 😋

Visiting Miami for the marathon and had lunch here, 10 min walk from Downtown. I had their premiere burger plus the coleslaw and french fries. Very tasty and I’m stuffed!!! Gonna come back for dinner later…

Good

You can order on a screen or directly at the counter. The guy was very nice. I had the Cocinita bowl for there and the pancakes for take away. Both very satisfying. You can sit in- or outside. And they open at 9am not 11. #Veganuary

Did not disappoint

We were looking for some authentic tacos and arepas and this place blew us away. The portobello taco had a smoky flavour and the guac was perfect.

Pros: Food was delicious, Friendly and helpful staff , Fast service

Quality vegan food

Food was really good and felt pretty healthy. Had the Mexican bowl with extra plantain which was brilliant and then some of the special fries. Portion sizes were good. Would recommend! #Veganuary

Cute Little Spot

The Cocinita was a perfect lunch spot. We got the Mexican bowl, patty melt, and one of the chocolate smoothies. Everything was delicious and even came with cute stickers!

Pros: Menu listed protein amounts , Kiosk ordering system

Cons: Parking hard to find (and expensive)

Excellent food and delivery service

We had 2 burgers and a bowl, plus chips. Food was excellent, portion size right for us. We were staying at Hilton 2 miles away and food arrived 40 mins after the order was put in. Their delivery service provider is really good, highly recommend.

Pros: Food, Presentation, Delivery service

So worth the drive and cost! 😍❤️❤️❤️❤️

I had the Yummy burger and sweet potato fries. The portions seem small but they pack a punch and that burger was insanely delicious!!

Pros: Good food, Good area, Cozy interior with option to eat outside.

Cons: Expensive for the portion size, but worth it 🔥❤️

A very nice experience.

First of all the service is top notch.
I only ordered a starter and a burger as I was dining alone, but the flavours were very satisfying, well balanced and fresh.
Although I loved it all, I recommend the Choco-Cado Bites. I was actually so impressed, I chuckled when I put the first one in my mouth.
The Mr. Mitrano burger had a great flavour and plenty of ingredients, but wasn't messy, and was easy to handle. The fries that came with the Mr. Mitrano were cooked by someone that really knew what they were doing.
The "raw" interior just feels nice, which somewhat resembles a kick back in time, and serves its purpose as ambiance without being unnecessary.
It is well located, although somewhat hidden in the CBD of Miami.
I didn't have any unfavourable opinions of this gem, however, I was only there for a short time, and was on foot.

Great vegan place in downtown Miami

This was a great find.
Between the two of us we ordered Mr Mitrano Burger, The Yummy Burger, Fries, Hummus with pitta bread and The Portobello Taco.
All of it was good. The Taco is only one portion. The burgers were full of flavour.
The service is quick and the staff are friendly. They even bought more pitta bread with the Hummus when asked and did not charge us for it.
Parking isn't great if driving. This place is hidden away from the hussle and bussle so you may miss it.

Pros: Quick service, Friendly staff, Great tasting food

Cons: Parking, Little pricey

Delicious!

This was a yummy and cozy restaurant. I tried the pancakes with bananas, strawberries, blueberries, syrup, and a sweet butter that tasted similar to Nutella. It was very delicious. My friend ate their fries, and I tried a few fries, and they were good. I recommend them!

Cons: Limited seating
