    We came for a quick breakfast on a Saturday morning, the place is really cozy and has a perfect view for a rainy day. I recommend the "flan de queso" and the moccha. We also got the waffles which were good but the syrups were a little too artificial.

    The mimosas were terrible, room temperature and who knows what Prosecco they used, I don’t recommend it, also they took forever! The French toasts were delicious. The eggs Benedict weren’t runny, but the flavor was there. The desserts were amazing.

    UPDATED: Unbelievable! I used to go to this place for years and now I feel like they rubbed me! My friend and I each paid 30$ and got nothing! Although we ordered dishes, tipped and had a table, they brought us coffee in plastic cup as takeaways. They didn’t give us the orange juice we ordered UNTIL eventually we asked them to do so and the dishes were incredibly SMALL and unprofessionally served! Also I asked them if they had croissant or cornetto,they said yes and I ordered one. I asked them for that at the end, and the woman behind the table with orange hair in her forties or fifties told me they don’t have croissants there and they never had them!! Shocking! It’s unacceptable and they should have refunded us! Interesting that at the end said we’re not really happy with our experience and that lady said :” I know!” ———————- My old review: They have their own selection of coffees which is interesting

    Charming European cafe in the heart of Coral Gables. Be sure to try the Cafe Demetrio if you like a sweet treat. Pairs perfectly with something savory. Very sweet staff despite being very busy.

    Food presentation…atmosphere and service were all absolutely top notch. I can’t say enough about this place but as long as it exists it will be a destination when I’m in the city.

    My grandmother passed away last night and growing up she used to make me huevos rancheros. I found cafe Demetrio served the dish so I went over to honor my grandmother. To my surprise this was not the experience I expected. Food took an obnoxious amount of time just to find that the dish was just 3 sunny side up eggs with a very astronomically small amount of salsa. You would think there was a salsa shortage. When I requested more salsa they forgot to bring it and my eggs got cold. When I went up to the front to ask for more, the worker there was upset I spoke English and refused to communicate unless it was Spanish. I get that we live in Miami but we are still in the U.S and I feel more comfortable speaking in English I hardly have the brain to produce sentences in Spanish in the middle of all this mourning. So if you’re a tourist and don’t speak Spanish don’t come here because you will not be able to express your requests to the staff. The man said he would bring it to my table and never did on top of being rude. My friend had to go and ask for me because I was already too upset by the fact they had ruined this mourning experience of my grandmother passing. It was when my friend asked that they went into the kitchen and got it. I will never be coming back here again.

    Really great place for brunch or lunch. Small, cozy and. Oat important the price was right for what u got. Many varieties of coffee as well as food. The food had such great flavor also. Not your basic breakfast food. Looooved the potatoes that get served. Would definitely recommend to everyone. Try the French toast sliders, you won't regret it.

    A great cafe for a breakfast date. Cute outside seating area. I do recommend coming in on a weekday when it’s less crowded. I went in on a Monday and it was so quick to find a place to sit and the food came out quick. Compared to going on a Saturday when it’s harder to find a place to sit. You order and pay at the front and they give you a number and bring you your food. They do have amazing breakfast food and a great selection on hot coffees but as an ice coffee drinker they do not have a wide selection.

    Absolutely beautiful vibe, friendly warm customer service and the food was stellar.

  • 4/5 Michael G. 2 months ago on Google • 58 reviews New
    Food was good but not great, at this price point it should have been much better. Eggs Benedict on a Bagel with Salmon and Capers was really good... BUT the Demetrio's Omelet had very little contents... NOT WORTH THE PRICE. Coffee was OK. Sitting outside was nice, but berries from the tree fell multiple times on us and our food.

  • 3/5 Milk Tea L. 2 months ago on Google • 45 reviews New
    Not impressed by the food I ate. I had their famous French toast sliders but they tasted like sausage egg & cheese McGriddles. My friend ordered the salmon eggs Benedict, looked way more appetizing. The coffees are worth mentioning, full of aroma and body. The table system is messed up. As soon as we went into the cafe to order our food, a couple came in and sat down. After I told the employees, they were kind enough to give us a Reserved table sign but by then we had lost our place to sit down. For ambience, I suggest you find outside seating on the cafe’s garden because inside, the place smells like a European unattended bathroom.

    I love the ambiance of this beautiful coffee shop whether you’re sitting outside or inside. The prices are reasonable and the food and the coffee is great. The service is warm and fast and the presentation of the coffee and the food is five stars. My only qualm about this place is that I wish there was little bit more variety in the menu when it comes to teas etc

    I usually come here for business meetings. Their coffee is great. I think I've had them all. I wish they had tea lattes though, like chai or matcha. Love that they have WiFi. Just a very chill cafe to work at or have meetings and lunches. I have not ate here yet. But I've heard the food is decent. Order taker is nice. They deliver the food and coffee to you. You have to get up to get the water.

    Cute cafe with outstanding coffee and food. The patio was the best place to sit today, but the entire place is fabulous. Glad I do not live nearby, I would blow up like a balloon. Congratulations to the owners and super friendly staff.

    I have had this place in my list for years and we finally went to celebrate my daughter's birthday. We parked right in front of the entrance and paid with the pay by phone app. As soon we got in, they took us outside where we requested to seat. Because of the pandemic we prefer to sit outside and it was wonderful. The service was great and the menu was amazing They had so much things on their menu that I wanna go back and have more. The breakfast that my daughter had was very good but the coffee we both had were phenomenal. I’m definitely going back to enjoy the rest of the menu and more of their amazing coffee. Another thing I liked was the service as I said before and also the prices were reasonable.

    Great service, delicious breakfast (even the simple fresh baguette toast was amazing). Great ambiance. Very clean. Strongly recommended.

  • 4/5 Michael O. 1 year ago on Google
    Great value. The food is reasonably priced (it hits the right flavors without being over the top), and the drinks are creative. It's a great environment to work from (they have wifi), and the staff is super friendly.

    Came here on a Saturday for Brunch! I loved the food. There was a bit of a line but our food was on our table 30 minutes after ordering :) We did unfortunately had to get a refund for the coffee as they had a lot of request and we couldn’t wait another 30 minutes.

  • 5/5 Jorge P. 3 years ago on Google
    Lovely place . We ate outside in the back patio. The weather was perfect for a cool brunch. The good was delicious! Definable worth doing again. The waffles where to die for . The steak was perfect and delicious. I just wish the salsa had a little more of a kick, but then again I love spicy salsa .

    This is my favorite coffe/ brunch place ever !!! If you’re looking for a quiet place , good food you’ve to try Demetrio . I been going there since 2018 and still my favorite one . So easy to park and you choose if seating inside or outside. The staff is kind of friendly, only issue I had last visit was I asked a waitress for water and she told me kind of rude “oh you have to pick it up yourself at the entrance “ . I understand that may be new in the restaurant, but doesn’t mean sense that if they bring food to tables I have to walk all the way from back to the entrance just to grab water , interrupting customer spaces al also my family breakfast. This is the reason I’m not giving 5 stars , because even though is my favorite , since 2018 I haven’t had this kind of issues till now
