One of my favorite spots to eat a quick lunch. Everything is always freshly made. It's not really a sit and dine type of place but if you get lucky you might be able to sit in the two patio tables in the front or the cute little side tables next to the laundromat. Their staple is the "Pan con Bistec", which is a sandwich made of palomilla steak and Cuban bread. It's a very Cuban thing to eat. And they make it WELL. Here it is made with mayonnaise, ketchup, lettuce, tomatoes and potatoe sticks. There are also freshly made juices, Cuban coffee, latin desserts, latin pastries among other things. The staff is friendly and the service is quick. It's a hot spot as it's always busy with customers. Come try it and see for yourself.

People are so friendly, especially Dayanya, she was trying translate to me in English, anyways I ordered Pan Con Tortilla, and Cafe con Leche, just took a bite, it just taste good, it is open 24 hrs, a place to sit out and enjoy the breeze and smoothie, they do have e lot on the menu

It's a little hole in the wall. My husband took me and said to try and niw I'm addicted. The trigo shake is on point. The steak sandwich wasnt the best needed to be cooked better and seasoned better. But better than other places and the rest of the food I really cant complain. I really enjoyed it.

Loved this spot. We hit this place up every morning at 3am for their steak sandwich, n beef empanadas. When ever you are in Miami (Little Havana) make sure stop by this place. Super yummy 💯🌴😋 I think they are open 24/7.

This is one of the best cafes in Coral Gables with great food at really affordable prices. Not only that, they also have a great selection of smoothies as well. The only downside is how it's on a small street corner with limited seating, but if you're on the go, this is a great place to stop by and have a good snack.

Great little place the machine so perfect. The staff is helpful here plus they have a nice little restaurant to boot.

Steak sandwich is amazing!

Delicious food and excellent coffee! They don't speak English at all. I had hard time to place an order. The best steak sandwich ever! I am definitely coming back when I am back to Miami.

Quick service and loved it! Great for late night bites ☺️

Love this place! Food is amazing, with spectacular service. They really work very hard here taking care of your order. Best Cuban Coffee in Miami. Thank you!

A holdout in gentrifying Miami. Espresso jacked with lots of sugar and a choripan—fantastic. Friendly people.

Can you go wrong with the best pan con bistec in Miami? At any time of day? Definitely not. Seems better after 12am, but that might be relative. Always an eclectic mix of clientele. Bring your best Spanish and order politely. A mainstay of Miami late night Cuban food.

What can I say, you know it, I know it, and everyone who doesn't needs too. 100% hands down, or up after you taste it Pan Con Bistec in the world I'm sure. I like it with everything but the ketchup, and I always ask for a Swiss cheese add-on. I assume all the other things are great too because people seem to look ecstatic when I see them eating there. But you know what I go for!!! Did I mention it's a 24 hour a day coin laundry too. And yes you can eat anytime of day you want. And an interesting people watching stop too, because you can get everything from princes to paupers there.... It's cool.

Amazing Pan con Bistec, Media Noche, and Mango Smoothie. They are open late-night hours and amazing service always. Perfect snack during the day or after a Heat game.

Walk up Cuban deli. Great stò late night for a sandwich as they are open 24 hours. Brush up on your Spanish to order.

Late at night? This is the place to go for a quick bite. Don't expect a fancy place, they are in a corner inside a laundromat, but with a nice staff, reasonable prices, a great selection of sandwiches and open 24/7 this is the spot. Usually you will find people there at all times, so while you wait for your food try the croquettes.

The sandwiches and shakes here are AMAZING!! Doesnt matter the time or day. Thia place never disapoints i usually call ahead before going. The food is amazing. Limited seating, it's more of a quick food grab type of place to eat. Dont expect, girls that work there are always great with service as well. Pricing is very decent.

Best Cuban steak in Miami hands down Open 24 hours so it's a crazy Miami scene at 3 am lol rolls Royce next to Uber every waiting for great sandwiches

24 hour window makes this a Miami staple. The croquetas aren't Islas level good, but they are still pretty spectacular. The sandwiches take some time to be made, but they are worth it. Smoothie selection is excellent. Very wide menu for a very small space.

This place makes the BEST pan con bistec I've ever tasted thus far. No other latin restaurant has been able to match it ! Even high end latin restaurants. Like the bread has a good consistent texture to it, it's toasted just perfectly, the steak tastes like good quality, the little fries with the ketchup, mayo, lettuce & sauteed onions all just mix perfectly. I don't understand why no other restaurant can do it like them. It's to the point where I drive a very long way just to get it. I wish they would deliver or were closer, oh well. You will definitely not be disappointed. 5 stars for real.

Late night full menu , freshly made, great service many options … life saving on a Saturday night

Love Mary’s this place , it has been a staple for me for a long time.Always open late with good service.Authentic Cuban Cafe, Espresso and pastries.Hungry grab a killer sandwich here.There is a laundry mat located on premises.Whats better than some cafe while you wash your clothes. Nice tables and seats overlooking Coconut Grove.

I’ve been coming here for years and they never disappoint. From the staff to the food it’s always a pleasure to visit when I’m in town.

Mary's Cafe is an absolute gem in Miami, and it's open 24 hours a day to satisfy your cravings anytime. From the moment you walk in, you are greeted with a friendly atmosphere The star of the show here is undoubtedly the Pan Con Bistec. It’s the best I’ve ever had! The steak is perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection, nestled in a fresh, crispy baguette, and topped with caramelized onions, tomatoes, and potato sticks that add the perfect crunch. Each bite is a delightful explosion of flavors that leaves you wanting more. In addition to the outstanding food, Mary’s Cafe offers the convenience of a 24-hour laundry service. This thoughtful touch makes it easy to get your laundry done while enjoying a great meal, making it a perfect spot for both locals and travelers. Overall, Mary’s Cafe delivers an exceptional dining experience with its mouthwatering Pan Con Bistec, welcoming ambiance, and the added perk of 24-hour laundry service. Highly recommended, one of my personal favorites

Neat out of the way restaurant that has delicious Cuban coffee and Sandwiches

+1

A staple on 27th Avenue. Very good pan con bistec, window service is always friendly. Any of the sandwiches will be good: Cuban sandwich, media noches.

There's a reason people come here after 11 PM the best pan con bistec in town . The lady's in the day time don't make it nowhere near as good as late night ! Change the day time recipe ! Night time after 11 best time and leave a tip to those hardworking ladies at night !

Me and my family first time at Mary’s , the sandwich were good !! I ordered a Cuban ! It was a delicious experience, and Thanks to the man who gifted me and my family shirts !

If you know , you know . Will always be a stop every time we visit Miami

love this place. super affordable, been going here for 2 years now. super authentic. love the ladies there they are so sweet and great cooks! they seeiously run the place!! 👏🏼👏🏼 all of their smoothies are EXCELLENT. i can chug about 5 of them all at once if i tried. SoBe and Honolulu are my favorite. Their sandwhiches are AMAZING!!!! love the turkey, tuna, chicken, and italian. besides eating there, i use the laundromat as well. super easy, clean. they prefer cash, but you can use card (just has a card fee), they have water out front for people, and nice music. also LOVE THEIR COLADASSSS!!! so good, sweet and strong!

Service: a quick stop counter service joint where I was able to park my car, wait, order my food and received my food, all in less than 8 minutes. Food: I only ordered the pan con bistec (steak sandwich) but it was delicious. I’d come back again and order two. Atmosphere: the restaurant is legitimately inside of a laundromat but there are tables around if you sit. Price: $5-10 an item is going to be hard to beat. Tremendous value for the quality of deliciousness you’ll get. Overall: 8.7/10

Great spot Coffees sandwiches cold drinks even protein in a bottle ! Highly recommended

Cute little place to get a snack. Great to have something pleasant to do and nice patio to sit at while waiting for laundry.

If someone were to go fishing for me, what would they have to attach to the end of the pole? Mary’s Cafe

+1

A Miami institution. All the basic Cuban antojos & sandwiches. Best part especially post covid place is really 24/. ¡Viva Mary’s!

Great owner and great people who take care of their customers. This is one of the best spots in Miami. So lucky to have it!

Very friendly service. Delicious croquetas and coffee

Nice place! Cortadito is really well made. Sandwiches are yummy and I loved the lady at the widow

The steak sandwich is one of the best in Miami and they open 24/7

I absolutely love places like this. The Expresso coffee was superb. The sandwich were well made on that infamous Cuban bread and not over toasted. I went for the tuna sandwich and it was well made plenty of tuna and toppings. The tuna salad is plain but with other topping made a good sandwich for a good price. A very good after or pre party food counter. Sandwiches start at 7.50 which isn't that bad. Will try the Cuban next.

Open 24hs theres no better place to get a pan con bistec and batido de mamey at 4am. The staff is always friendly. Love their shakes and hot dogs too!

Great Cuban coffee and pastelitos!!!hmmm yummy yummy 😋

+1

Food is great at a good price Ralph the owner is professional and kind

Definitely coming back to try more from the menu!

Small standby Cuban food shop. Steak sandwich is a Must! It is super juicy with fried banana fries inside make it wonderful. Second thing you should try is the smoothie! Fresh made smoothie with tropical fruits! ❤️💕😍

Nice pan con bistec looking forward to trying their smoothies

What more can be said about Mary's. This is a Miami institution and is a go-to at earlier hours after going out. You never know the people you'll meet out front but you will know you will also get a killer sandwich without fail. If you're local, this is a known commodity, but for someone visiting you need to likely have someone inform you about it as it can look unassuming from first glance. If you want a real South Florida experience, hit up Mary's.

Lindo Lugar con muy Buena vibra, las chicas que trabajan en la cafeteria y El laundry maravillosas

This place is a must-try, especially if you’re a local! The coffee is super good, the sandwiches are decent, and the smoothies are really good too. Prepare to wait a little. It’s one of those classic Miami spots that has a cool neighborhood vibe , definitely worth stopping by! Don’t forget to tell them Flavia Sent You!

Shared a pan con bistec sandwich for dinner and it was yummy! I liked it because it was freshly made - we waited no more than 10 minutes. The steak was cooked perfectly and the bread is yummy. Service was friendly! I was looking at the menu and they have several options. Would eat here again.

The best Cuban fast food you can ask for during a midnight run. Although the Cuban sandwich I ordered took a while, it came out a big sandwich that tasted decently on my way from the metro back home. Empanada was also not bad. Definitely check it out if you're flying in late and need food that isn't pizza or burgers

A really good spot to get a sandwich at 24/7

What can I say, Mary's cafe is just a treasure to the neighborhood. Their food hits the spot as you wait for your laundry to finish. Their pan con bistec is my favorite there, but I also recommend the pastelillos. If you need a quick bite and it's late night, this place has you covered!

This place serves the early am post club crowd we’ll, but it’s a great stop at any hour. The steak sandwich is a personal favorite and the smoothies are great!

The food and coffee are average. Prices are fair, as a cafe small things add up easily. Service is good, they have a small window where you order and the order accuracy is good.

Pretty good Cuban diner style food, great for a late snack after parties or hangouts. Food preparation is a little long in my opinion but it's worth it once you receive your order.

The porcini mushroom pappardelle is spectacular. The sauce has a very umami taste but isn't too overwhelming. SO GOOD!!! I've also tried the eggplant parmigiana, the lasagna, and a few of the desserts which are also extremely tasty. You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu here!

My service and sandwich was amazing!!! My reason for the four star is that upon reviewing cafe online, I thought it was a dine in experience as well as take-away, but it was take away only with limited seating outside with no covering from the heat or the rain. Also, there were no fries available to accompany my sandwich.

I had a smoothie and a sandwich on a croissant. I loved my sandwich, super tasty. The smoothie was too sweet though. But since you can personalize them, I will make sure to let them know I want less sugar next time.

There is usually only one item that people order from this place and it's the Cuban-style steak sandwich. Although, it makes it Cuban-style because of the dry fries that come in a can, which I always leave out because it makes it too salty. However, it's the few places that I enjoy for the steak sandwich.

Great late night Cuban oriented food joint. I had the burger and it was well worth it. Smoothies were pretty good. Prices definitely keep this place in the running. Oh, if you have clothes to wash, a laundrymat is attached.

The lady who's name is forgot to get... is great... anytime she takes my order, it is always nice.

This place always hits the spot. Great sandwiches and shakes. They're open 24hrs and all the employees are very cordial. Another great thing about them is their prices. They're economical and fair, unlike lots of other places in the area. Mary's never disappoints.

Such a nice little place! I went to do laundry and decided to try out the Cafe while I was there; they seem to be a bit understaffed so the service itself runs pretty slow. But otherwise, I actually enjoyed my time there and the Cuban Frita sandwich was Delicious!

A friend invited me to some late night munchies since it’s open 24/7. I had 2 Empanadas, Pan con bistec, and frozen fruit smoothies 😋😋😋😋

It was Ok the steak sandwich was a lot better than the Cuban I would have liked them toasted a little more next time. Not the best in Miami.

In my quest to find the perfect Cuban sandwich I heard about Mary's coin laundry and deli since it's right down the street from where I'm currently staying I decided to head there after work and get a Cubano. It didn't take long for them to make it, I don't think I waited more than 5 minutes that may have been a red flag usually in my experience a great Cubano takes at least 15 minutes to cook and assemble and since I wanted to eat at my Airbnb which was a quarter mile or less away I literally did a grab and go which is what this experience felt like. Upon opening the wrapper I noticed the bread looked really fresh but did not have any crispiness to it and my assumptions were clear it didn't spend much time under the flat iron. No, I'm not saying this sandwich is bad it had a good taste to it The bread was very fresh and light but it just tasted like a ham and cheese sandwich assembled with a couple of slices of pork and ham but of really good quality the cheese was on point as well. I've heard a lot of rave reviews about Mary's and I can see why it's a great sandwich but in my opinion and it's just my opinion it doesn't hold a candle to Enrequitas on second and 29th in midtown but my all-time favorite is from La Cucina International in Spring Hill Florida. Don't get me wrong this was a great sandwich it was fresh the bread was light and delicious but it wasn't crispy The deli meat was a very good quality and tasty but there wasn't enough of it compared to other great cubanos I've had plenty of pickles the way I liked and enough mustard. Now Mary's has lots of other delicious looking sandwiches on their menu and for a sandwich shop tucked away in the corner of a laundromat and being right down the street from my Airbnb I will be back there again to try some of their other offerings. Three stars for the Cubano Five stars for quality and freshness.

I appreciate Mary's for what it is. A low cost local spot (not many of those left) with ok food in an up-and-coming area. They seemed to have gained popularity in recent years but not exactly sure why. I took the bait and tried their steak sandwich a couple months back, and it was... mediocre. I thought, ok maybe they're having a bad day it was later at night after all. Went again a few days ago, got a couple sandwiches this time to compare and again it's like they don't really try. Which is a shame because they seem to have garnered a good amount of popularity, and with small improvements could maybe break out into a real Miami hidden gem. Come on Mary, seize the opportunity!

Some guy here said "They have the best cuban sandwhich in all of Miami." It was dry, lacking pork and mustard, and pickles. Just kind of mediocre overall. I've had much better. Their frita was extremely tough and dry as well. Their croquettes cold and nasty. Not that great IMO.

The owner finally hired staff and the cafe is open again. I give the cafe 3 stars.. They have raised their prices multiple times in the last year. Do they forget the reason people become customers is because they can afford to buy there daily? If they keep increasing the prices.. There will be better prices to eat around for the same price soon.

The dryers only give you 6 minutes per quarter. The space can be tight when full of people, and the prices are 25 % more than I expected. It is very clean, and the staff is friendly.

Didn't live up to the hype. Also didnt go while drunk at 2am I'm sure it's way better then

The most mid Cuban cafe, guess you have to be an insider to get fresh coffee.

We heard about this place having the Best pan con bistek sandwich on an Instagram post, so we figured we would try it. We drive for more than 30 minutes I n from North Miami. We had a couple pan con bistek and a cafe con leche. The cafe con leche was very good. The pan con bisteks not so much. The Cuban bread was fresh and flakey, the meat was bland, unseasoned, and did not have good flavor as advertised. The other sandwich toppings were good, even though this was our first having ketchup on a steak sandwich. Although not the worst pan con bistek we've had, it was far from the best. We definitely would not make the drive to this place again. Sorry we didn't take photos.

Acabo de pedir un pan con bistec 🥩 en esta cafetería, bien malo, este bistec no sabía a nada ni tan siquiera tenía sal, el pan duro, a la chica q trabaja le pedí una servilleta y me miró con una cara como si fuera prohibido pedirlo, una actitud las dos súper desagradable Hace muchos años y por mucho tiempo era uno de los mejores panes con bistec de Miami por eso fue q vino pero todo quedó en el pasado

Meh. The papa rellena was great. But I was disappointed with the one slice of ham Cuban sandwich and sweet pickles. I kinda wonder if they’ve had a real Cuban sandwich. Also the main girl that served me refused to speak to me in English. She was very impatient because I couldn’t understand what she was saying.

Service is THE SLOWEST IN MIAMI, and that is saying it all there. Astonishing, what a lack of pride in what you do on a daily basis. This place would be such an awesome and bountiful business if only anyone cared, the guy who owns this place could be making a killing. Still, very convenient that you can eat and relax while your laundry is getting done.

Food is decent but way the price is rough. The coffee tastes great, but the service is awful. They act like they don’t want you to be there. There’s no reason to be rude just because you know we’re not from Miami.

The employees should not provide to the homeless. The odor was so horrible my whole appetite disappeared. Not good.

Big turn over in employees so , good always taste different.

The food is amazing but I feel like this ladies don’t like to serve women. I walked up to place an order one told me to wait and the other just started shaking her head like she couldn’t help me. Had me waiting here for like 10 minutes while they gave orders out and cleaned up inside and outside. Honestly this type service makes me not wanting to come anymore here again.

Very little meat in this pan con lechón. More onions than meat. Vinegar all over the bread, meat can't be tasted because of this. Very slow service

Went there because the NEW TIMES wrote a great article about them. It's a window Cafe and not so clean. Ordered a tamal and the girl looked at me funny. Guess they do not sell alot. Saw it was a frozen tamal in a package they opened with a scissors. Defrosted in a microwave so quality not great. Sandwiches are on huge thick bread rolls with very little inside for the price. Not impressed and won't be back. Cuban worst I have ever had, not pressed with toaster.

Had the pan con Bistec. Lacked flavor both in the bread and the steak itself, Anybody can pull a better job at home. One half was bloated with meat and the other with condiments, no sense in assembling the sandwich. And to think this was one of the best in town...

Used to visit this place all the time but on our last visit they sold us a steak sandwich for $11 that had only 1 slice of tomato SPLIT IN HALF! And the steak was the size of my pinky. We returned it immediately and asked for a refund. Wish I could’ve taken a picture of it because I know this review will not do justice of the type of sandwich they tried to sell and get away with for $11. Make sure to know your rights and return whatever you get from this place if they try to stiff you too!

Correct me if I'm wrong but this place was the little spot for a late night or any time steak sandwich. When I would go the service was great and the sandwiches were great as well not to mention the prices were good too. I would say around $5.50 or $6 when I would go. Now I understand times are different and things have changed I get that. I don't mind paying a bit extra to help a small business. But you walk up and think the service will be the same. I placed my order 2 sandwiches and an empanada total was roughly $20. I was a bit confused as to why so much. I asked and the lady at the register tells me in the most annoyed attitude. "Sandwiches are now $8.50 each" I look up to the display where they have thier menu and I said "it states $7.50" here. Her response? "Yeah but that's the new price". I pay it and get my order. So here's my verdict. For $8.50 each you get an overpriced bland tasting thin steak sandwich and some attitude on the side. (Hopefully you don't get the same person who took care of my order). Sad to see a once good place for a quick bite decline in service the way it has. This is my opinion though I welcome you to go and have your own experience. Management should really take a closer. Look at giving a better experience. Everything doesn't last for ever and at that rate it'll soon be another closed buisness

I am not sure who has been eating this food and providing rave reviews, but it’s probably one of the worst pan con bistec and Cuban sandwich we have ever had. Very few pieces of meat. The bread wasn’t great. Way too much mustard on the Cuban and ketchup/mayo on the pan con bistec. Even the cafe con leche wasn’t great - too bitter tasting. Plus two sandwiches and a small cafe con leche cost us $22 and change. You are better off going to a Latin America than here. We definitely will not be coming back.

This used to be the best pan con bistec in Miami. However, they lower the quality of the meat and bread.

Not worth going to. Steak sandwich doesn’t taste as good as it used to be. Asked for no tomatoes and guess what was in it? Sat outside and a unleashed dog without a collar came and jumped on me, scratched me and licked the sandwich. Ask the lady for another one and she said no. Couldn’t believe it. Won’t be going back there. Watch out for dogs and bad service.

This is the most ridiculous place to go to. They do not get yours right. It's the second time I order from this place and they get the order wrong. I ordered No Ketchup even though she wrote it down the one in the kitchen understood it as Extra ketchup. No is no in both English and Spanish. I will not be returning to this place and I will make sure to get help this same rating. How hard can it be to get a sandwich correct? It's not like that have to worry about much there. Unacceptable! And disgusting!

This is the worst sandwich I have ever had. I ordered the Cuban, it came with a tiny piece of ham on it, one side had way too much mustard and the other had none. The bread tasted like cardboard. The service was good but definitely will not be coming back.

The food is almost ALWAYS amazing! This is a stopping point for me EVERY time I’m in Miami. It’s has been too many times the lady at the counter is RUDE which RUINS the atmosphere. My most recent trip was ridiculous. Gave me wrong items and then didn’t even provide items that were missing. Not worth my time to go back and argue with someone who doesn’t understand common sense.

Aimee Hernandez

engaño Cubano, not sandwich cubano. Mostly bread and pickles. Where’s the ham pork and cheese? Les debe dar pena vender esto.

Hoy lo visite el pan con bistec sin sabor el servicio pesimo las mesas de afuera sucias no lo recomiendo.
