Notable Picks
8.6
Born from a 2016 partnership between world-renowned pastry chef Antonio Bachour and chef Henry Hané, this Brickell stalwart has outlived the split and cemented itself as the neighborhood's definitive brunch destination. The guava-cream cheese pancakes and circular filled croissants draw lines that snake onto the sidewalk on weekends, and the truffle bun has developed its own cult following. The covered patio feels like an escape from Brickell's glass towers, though service can stretch thin when the wait hits peak hours. Pastry execution remains razor-sharp—expect occasional savory inconsistencies—but for Miami brunch with genuine pastry pedigree and a World's Best 50 nod, this is where you go.
Must-Try Dishes:
Pastelito Pancakes, Truffle Bun, Mexican Avocado Toast
What Makes it Special: Award-winning bakery featured in 'World's Best 50' that brings Miami-inspired twists to classic brunch with dishes like guava-cream cheese pancakes.
David Yeo's Hong Kong-born, Michelin-starred Northern Chinese concept landed in Brickell as its second U.S. location in 2019, bringing 35,000 hand-chiseled antique grey bricks transported from a 1930s Chinese building to line the soaring walls. The flaming Peking duck—air-dried for 36 hours—provides the theatrical centerpiece that justifies the $$$$, while the red lantern soft-shell crab and ma la chili prawns deliver on the promise of elevated Northern Chinese technique. The dramatic interior design alone makes it Instagram-worthy, but the food backs it up. Platform ratings diverge notably—some praise it as Miami's best Chinese, others note prices that sting. Worth the splurge for special occasions if you're prepared for the check.
Must-Try Dishes:
Flaming Peking Duck, Red Lantern Crispy Soft-Shell Crab, Ma La Chilli Prawns
What Makes it Special: A globally acclaimed Northern Chinese destination offering Miami's most theatrical Peking duck, air-dried for 36 hours and served flaming.

Maman
8.4
Elisa Marshall and Benjamin Sormonte's 2014 NYC café phenomenon landed in Brickell in 2025, bringing their Oprah-endorsed nutty chocolate chip cookie and South of France aesthetic to the financial district's largest Maman location. The vintage Parisian interiors—antique touches, soft florals, sun-drenched seating—create genuine warmth in an area starved for it, and the flat whites get consistent praise as Brickell's best. The salmon bun croissant and farmhouse granola parfait deliver on the French-American comfort promise. Still early days for this outpost with limited review volume, but the mother ship's $47 million annual revenue suggests they know what they're doing.
Must-Try Dishes:
Nutty Chocolate Chip Cookie, Salmon Bun Croissant, Elisa's Breakfast Bowl
What Makes it Special: NYC's beloved French-American café brings its cult-status cookie and South of France charm to Brickell's largest location.

Casa Nané
7.8
Jeanet 'Nané' Hanze grew Biscuits by Nané from a weekend hobby into a five-location Ecuadorian brand before bringing this bistro to Brickell's Maizon in 2025 with husband and business partner Christian Stagg. The tigrillo and bolon de queso offer authentic Ecuadorian green plantain preparations rarely found in Miami, and the jipijapa ceviche brings coastal Ecuador flavors to a neighborhood saturated with generic brunch. The pastel-toned interior with custom floral murals inspired by Ecuadorian flora creates an Instagram-ready backdrop. Early reviews are mixed—some praise the eggs Benedict and fresh s'mores cookies, while others note Ecuadorian specials arrive bland and service has shown growing pains. Worth watching as they settle in.
Must-Try Dishes:
Eggs Benedict, Tigrillo, Bolon de Queso
What Makes it Special: An Ecuadorian-born bistro bringing traditional green plantain dishes and freshly baked artisan cookies to Brickell.
