Lemoni Cafe

Great place and great food, but the wait, omg! Every time I come it’s always an hour wait for food. That’s the only reason I’m giving it a lower rating. Maybe if they got a second chef or more help in the kitchen.

One of my favorite places to have brunch at! It is a little whole-​in-​the-​wall restaurant with a handful of tables. I always order the Mediterranean salad (minus the feta cheese) which is super filling and tasty. The Portobellissimo and Boca Burger are amazing too!

I really really like it. It has a nice small atmosphere. My favorite items would have to be the curry and key lime pie hands down.
Do yourself a favor, next time you are around the Design District, visit this place. It has its own parking, so there is one less worry. The area is well known for towing.

Chef Assia and co-​owner Eugenia have made a landmark of a once sleepy strip of shops. They are the longest standing on the 2^nd Avenue few blocks along with the Buena Vista Bistro and Mandolin.
They have an amazing assortment of food, from paninis to smoothies, salads to full out fine dishes. Fresh always, somet organic, some vegan and vegetarian, all delicious.
Assia has an amazing flair for the exotic and refined and all in the setting of a Porteño-​like bar cantina. A perfect coupling of laid back and boho chic.
A great selection of wines and beer, you will absolutely love their desserts. What else is there to know?
Now get thee there.

The food is always amazing and healthy. Asome of my favorite food there are the spicy guac burger, the gyro, and the churrasco. The smoothies are awesome to. Great place to eat and relax.

Lemoni has a large array of desserts, I have tried a few of them and all have been very good so far. I would recommend the key lime pie, it is made with homemade crust. I only came for dessert and coffee, but I have heard the pizza is also great here as well.
Tip: This restaurants tends to close about an hour earlier than the hours state. If you want to eat after 9pm this is not the place.

Great small café. Love telhe extensive menu. There is a lot to choose from. I brought my daughters and a friend for Easter Bruch. I’m sure they will be back again for breakfast, lunch, dinner or brunch. The french toast is my favorite for breakfast and the white sangria is fantastic. The salmon plate is also very good and the eggs over medium were done to perfection.

Me encanta este lugar es pequeño pero la carta es extensa y todo lo quehe probadoes delicioso. De mis favoritos es la ensalada griega y cualquier sopa!

Heard great things about Lemoni Café, decided to head that way one day and instead ended up at their pizza place right next door (Lemoni Pizza Kitchen). The food was amazing, had a delicious goat cheese and truffle appetizer and a fresh margherita pizza. Service wasn’t bad, but there was only 1 server (small place) and she kept running back and forth between restaurants, in the rain, quite frankly, I felt terrible for her.
Fast forward a couple of months: ordered delivery to my place, quick service, pizza was okay, Papa Johns would have done the job. I figured their delivery service just needed help, so I decided to try again…
Called on a Saturday evening 4 times! Got put on hold 4 times! For greater than 5 minutes EACH TIME! Finally, my bf calls and the man tells him that they are short staffed to please order through Unilocal.Not a problem! I completely understood and actually felt bad for calling so much. Log onto Unilocal and guess what? They don’t «deliver» to my address?!?1? I have ordered from here before! I can ride my bike there for crying out loud. Very dissappointed. Not sure if i wish to give this place another try, definitely NOT through delivery.

Excellent food.
Such terrible service.
I have never been asked to return the food a restaurant messed up so that my issue may be resolved. I ate it. It wasn’t terrible and I was freaking starving. You should either refund partially or replace without question.
Prepare to pay to eat whatever they give you or starve til you can trade their mistake for what you actually ordered.
Insanity.

My friend and I are obsessed with this place. We ate here last year and I had not stopped dreaming about their salmon burger until we stepped in again just recently. It was basically empty last time, but this time completely packed (good for business, bad for elbow room). Still managed to enjoy what is probably my favorite sandwich/​burger item ever. Attentive servers and decent prices for the offering.

We visited Lemoni last year during this time! It was pretty empty, so we had the small place to ourselves. The wait staff are so kind and friendly. The food was amazing. We had two sandwiches — the salmon burger and a turkey/​avocado. Both were delicious!
We decided to visit Lemoni again this year! While it was definitely more crowded, it wasn’t too loud and the wait staff was still pretty great. We both had the salmon burgers and they were amazing!
Such a cute, small place!

Solid spot. Had the Mediterranean quinoa salad, it had oil/​herbal vinegar dressing, lots of quinoa, some greens, cucumbers, tomatoes, mozarella cheese (they were out of feta), and some other veggie goodies. Served with a side of pita with some guacamole that wasn’t the best. A little pricey, but definitely a great selection of salads and very fresh vegetables. Would recommend this spot!

A hidden gem! Casual and eclectic atmosphere, this place looks like it easily doubles as a quirky café and lowkey lunch or dinner spot. A huge range of food options, especially for dinner. And many vegetarian/​vegan, a big plus. But most importantly, everything my table ordered was excellent. Even something as simple as a chicken wrap was filled with unique and delicious flavors. Other favorites: Hummus, Tabbouleh, Coconut breaded vegan cutlets.
Definitely returning often.

My favorite café in all of Miami! Such a cute little spot, great service and delicious food!
All you need to know is the Chicken Avocado Panini… it is life changing. And ask for extra aioli sauce! Yum!

Es un restaurante pequeñito muy acogedor pero el servicio es terrible. No tienen nada de tacto para manejar al cliente.
Al llegar pregunte si me asignaban mesa o si podia escoger, me dijeron que podia seleccionar la que quisiera. Escogi la mesa que me gusto y espere a que llegara mi pareja de parquear el carro. Al poco tiempo llego un grupo y la mesera al ver que solo estaba yo me informo que esa mesa era para mas de dos person y me debia mover! Sin tacto ni cortesia! Fue una orden mas que una solicitud de colaboracion. Estas son las personas que sin pensar pueden dañar la atmosfera de un negocio. Como estaba lloviendo fuertemente no quise irme y seleccione otra mesa. La mesera nunca tuvo calidez, nunca vi una sonrisa o actitud amable. La comida de gran sabor pero MUY MUY MAL SERVICIO!!!

Probably the smallest café in Miami with the biggest menu. You could seriously eat there every day for months and never order the same thing twice. Incredible selection of really well done healthy dishes and many vegan options. This will be my go-​to place for take out and delivery as well. Great local café feel with very tight limited seating… you will get to know the folks eating next to you.
The vegan meatballs were amazing, as well as the veggie wrap. Every dish that came out of the kitchen whizzed right by our noses, and they all looked amazing. Portions are large, so didn’t make it to dessert. Desserts are home made and looked insanely good.
I would have given it 5 stars, but it was difficult getting our servers attention throughout our brunch. I completely understand that it was a packed Saturday, but there really aren’t too many tables, so.

The food is good, the atmosphere is even better! A little hole in the wall in Miami’s Mimo District, Lemoni Café really transports you to a little chic European café. And they have amazing vegan options!
Ambiance: I usually start off with food, but this place is really all about the ambiance! The absolute perfect date night spot, especially for a first date (and it’s near Wynwood so if you’re feeling each other make your way to one of the breweries!). There’s so much character in the décor, the colors very rich and warm so you just feel so at ease and comfortable. It’s tiny and just down to earth!
Food: I really liked the food! They have an extensive menu with everything from sandwiches to salads to vegan entrees! Perfect place for vegans & non-​vegan friends to come because there is something for everyone! I ordered the Vegan Platter and Jesus! Food for 3 meals easily! Came with quinoa, whole wheat pita, sautéed veggies, hummus, VEGAN MOZZARELLA, strawberries with mint, and coconut meat breaded with oatmeal. Absolutely freaking delicious and super filling! I couldn’t get over the vegan mozzarella. My date ordered the chicken quesadilla and he said it was really good too! They don’t have a large wine or beer menu, but they have some great craft beers including Dead Guy Rogue which is my absolute favorite! I really wanted their vegan cookies, but they were out. Next door they have a pizzeria with vegan pizza, can’t wait to try that!
Overall, cute, quaint, good food, large menu selection, limited wine & beer, and vegan deliciousness! Highly recommend this place for a simple dinner date.

I really loved the ambience of this place. Its small but quaint– quant is actually the perfect word for this place.
There is a friendly atmosphere that is something I really appreciate about places like this. There was one table available when I walked in and I didn’t hesitate to sit down because I just felt welcomed.
The menu is very big, but has something for everyone. I ordered the Abbys Special wrap that contained chicken salad, avacado, fresh greens, corn and onions. I asked for it without corn, but they still gave me corn. I told the waitress and I was immediately brought another.
The service is the only reason I took off a star. They took forever to take our order, give us our food and refill drinks. I was turned off by that.
Once I received the correct wrap, I was in heaven! I highly recommend the Abbys Special. The three bean salad they serve on the side of all wraps and paninis was AMAZING. Simply amazing, and a must-​have.
We then ordered the brownie a la mode which was incredible! Only one scoop of ice cream, which isnt enough, but still great. The bread pudding looked amazing too, but we didnt order it.
I will most certainly be returning.

I am officially boycotting this place. They have raised their prices over 30%. A salad it anywhere from $ 12-​$ 15 if you want to add chicken $ 5 more. So, basically for $ 20 you can get a salad at the Ritz rather than a hole in wall place with 0 atmosphere. People came here because your food was good and your prices «WERE» affordable. This place has no atmosphere tables are ontop of each other and service is mediocre always at it’s best.
+++ You lost my business !
Lower your prices they are insane !!!

I received a Lemoni menu under my door months ago and FINALLY got around to trying it out. Unfortunately I didn’t have time to go sit and enjoy, so I called and placed my order.
The Lemoni Suprimo Panini. «See you in 20!» the lady on the phone said before handing up. I continued my errands and arrived 30 minutes later, hoping to pay and run to continue my busy day.
Soon as I arrived I loved the place! Tiny little café with packed for lunch with what looked to be delicious dishes and the place itself had tons of character I had the time to observe while I waited another 30 THIRTY MINUTES for my ONE PANINI. Very disappointing. The lady cashed me out soon as I arrived and said she would bring my food in a minute. Then 10, then I ask, «it will be right out», then 20, then I ask again as I am now hangry and antsy, and a few minutes later someone finally brings me my food and I leave.
Now the panini itself. DELICIOUS! Salivating just thinking about it. However nearly an hour later?! Come on man! Had they communicated with me obviously my first experience would have been different «Sorry ma’am, the chef accidently dropped your food on the floor, rather then dusting if off we’re making a new one» or «Your order was taken out to a table, we’re terribly sorry. Here is a water and a delicious cupcake you have to stand next to for 30 minutes while you wait. We apologize for the inconvenience.» SOMETHING!
As I believe in second chances, my food was oh so yummy, and the the venue itself was very sweet, I will happily be trying Lemoni again in the future hoping to add another star :)

Me encanto el lugar, … creo volvrer pronto, … lindo y delicioso todo… quiero probarlo todo

Panini é simplesmente sensacional, venha com fome por que é super bem servido! Smothies N. 2 acompanha super bem o Panini Limone

Love this place! Cute atmosphere and delicious REALLY filing food. I had the soup of the day which was creamy & a very nice portion, and a wrap which they made hot for me. The wrap comes with a super yummy bean salad, which I would definitely eat by itself, it was that tasty.
It’s awesome for a date or girls night. I spent under $ 15 and was filled and satisfied.

Not sure what took me so long to «discover» Lemoni. Fear of being run over by a Haitian driver perhaps? Ouch. Had to go there. No really, I liked this charming little café and I love that they offer a few vegan options. What they should also add is some gluten-​free corn or brown rice tortillas instead of all the wheat breads and wraps.
My daily special, a grilled faux meatball panini with vegan mozzarella, portabella mushrooms and marinara sauce, was totally delicious. The vegan cheese was actually really good, as was the faux meat made from oats and coconut. Sounds strange, but with the marinara sauce and smoky mushrooms, it worked.
Their dessert offerings are great (brownie a la mode, cheesecake, bread pudding and vegan cupcakes). I am a bread pudding feen. Their cinnamon raisin version with nutella is legit, right up there with Morgan’s, Blue Collar and City Hall. And for $ 6 you get a huge portion. I am not a big fan of raisins and usually prefer some sort of fruit or chocolate in my bread pudding, like Morgan’s does. I also didn’t notice any nutella in it but overall it was still a very good traditional BP. I’d pay them a visit just for that (and probably will).

oh my god, este lugar es tan bueno, todo lo que pidas es bueno, no hay un plato que no me guste, el hamburger es el mejor que me he comido en toda mi vida, lo hacen ellos, no lo compran frizado como los demas restaurantes, es out of this world, lo demas es super bueno, no bueno super bueno, los wraps que les puedo decir, para mi uno de los mejores en el area, el precio, wow eso es otra cosa, un precio buenisimo, super barato para mi, tienen una buena seleccion de vinos, buena cerveza, la atencion es maravillosa, la chicas son un amor, un lugar donde te sientes super bien, la gente que van son cool, y yo no tengo nada que ver con este restaurante, es que es tan bueno que tengo que escribir un review, lo recomiendo 100%.
