Miami Deli is described across reviews as a bold, nostalgic diner with a behemoth menu, big portions, and affordable prices that make it a reliable go-to for breakfast and brunch, and its kitschy, Florida themed decor is repeatedly highlighted as part of the charm. Many diners praise fast, friendly service and a welcoming, family-friendly vibe, but reports vary with some noting slow or uneven service and changes in staff since changing ownership. The food gets mixed marks: some dishes are praised for being hearty and tasty and the smoked meat and poutines are favorites, while others critique fries that have changed texture, pizzas that are less robust than before, or poutine sauces that lack the same richness. Some customers mention long weekend crowds and the place feeling like an institution that is worth a detour for the experience, while others feel the quality does not always justify rising prices. Overall, the reviews present a picture of a distinctive, value-oriented spot that can deliver comforting, generous meals and memorable ambiance but also faces inconsistency in both menu items and service.
They made a mistake with my order, then they gave me the correct dish but in the end they charged me for both dishes, the right one & the wrong one, that wasn't right at all
Super service, surtout si vous avez la chance d'avoir Chantal. Un peu vieille mais, vous lui donnez un petite poussée, ça la remonte pour une quinzaine de minutes. C'est gossant mais, ça vaut la peine !!!! 😂

Y a à boire & à manger. Grosse poutine très grosse. Toilettes propres. Des jeux très divertissant au dos du menu, même s'il manque le 34 dans les points à relier, ça n'empêche pas de compléter le dessin.
C'est un endroit spécial qui vaut une visite au moins une fois dans sa vie montréalaise! On y va pour le côté cliché de la déco pas forcément pour la finesse de la bouffe.
Je suis venue au Miami Deli avec ma famille un lundi soir & on a tous adoré !! Les portions sont énormes & les tortellini rosé & le pain à l'ail sont délicieux !!
L'expérience du Miami deli est un incontournable selon moi! C'étais ma première fois & je suis loin d'être déçue. Le service excellent, des portions copieuses & des plats aussi délicieux les un que les autres! Il y en a pour tous les goûts au Miami deli. Je le conseille grandement!
If you are looking for an authentic & satisfying meal, this is the place! The poutine is absolutely incredible-the gravy is flavorful, the fries are perfectly cooked, & the cheese curds are as fresh as they come.
What really stood out was the generous portion sizes; the plates are huge, so make sure you come hungry! On top of the great food, the service was top-notch. The staff was friendly, fast, & made us feel right at home. I'll definitely be coming back!

I am writing to formally express my dissatisfaction with the treatment I have repeatedly experienced at your restaurant.
There is an older employee (man) who regularly works on Saturdays (he previously wore a red T-shirt last year & now wears a blue sweater+black eye glasses ). On multiple occasions, when I have come to pick up my order, he has handled my food in a careless & disrespectful manner, placing or throwing it onto the counter instead of handing it properly.
This behavior is not only unprofessional but also creates an uncomfortable & disrespectful atmosphere. As a paying customer, I expect to be treated with basic courtesy. I genuinely enjoy your food & have chosen to return many times because of its quality. However, customer service is just as important as the product itself.
Unfortunately, if this situation is not addressed, I will no longer continue supporting your establishment. I hope you take this matter seriously & take appropriate action to ensure customers are treated with the respect they deserve.
2 personnes: 2 burger avec une frite chacun. Très mauvais service par un monsieur que l'on dérangeai. Burger froid. manque une frite. service long & aucun vérification sur notre expérience. Oui nous aurions pris une boisson gazeuse. J'adore le Miami Déli, ce fut une mauvaise note pour cette fois. Dommage.
I adore Miami deli. It is a place out of time & space. Truly a monolith. An Icon. There is nothing else like it. The menu is a behemoth & the breakfasts are proper, as are the portions. You must eat here.
