«So, where do you want to go?» That’s how the conversation began. I quickly picked up my phone to search through my bookmarks on Unilocal,and he said, «I got this. I beat you to it.» We drove to Miami on a some what busy Tuesday evening and ended up here. It’s a spot he had his eye on for quite some time. I guess it was all those eye catching, mouth-watering, pictures posted on their Instagram profile. When he showed me their page why did I literally feel myself drooling over the pics. LOL. I wasn’t hungry enough to try one of their tasty enticing meals when we arrived but I did settle into a lovely cup of ginger tea. The tea was so hot I had to wait for it to cool which was perfect because it gave the tea bag more time to brew. I like my ginger strong. My husband also got something lite. He ordered a shot of espresso with coconut milk, and a mixed fruit cup that was a perfect size for us to share. It was delicious. My favorite fruits in the cup were pineapple and strawberries. It also included cantaloupe, melon, and kiwi if I’m not mistaken. It was the best food cup I’ve tasted in a while. There is no seating inside, only outside and the best place to park is across the street in the parking deck. While we sat, and ate, and drank we savored the moment as we listened to music playing from the speaker above our heads. Music that sounded French. We enjoyed the laughter in the air from nearby tables, relaxed in the warmth of the breeze, and the sun setting across our faces. It was beautiful. Dreamy even. A perfect way to spend an evening together.

Rudeness and impoliteness at it’s best. Came today June 11th at 2:45pm… The guy who works there shows no respect for the customer, not only with me but with the rest of the customers there. Sad to see healthy food filled with bad vibes. Do yourself and eat somewhere else.

The food and juices are a little pricey but totally worth it because they taste amaaaazing and are healthy. The only downside is having to deal with the girls that take your order. They’re always rude and snappy or give you attitude. Theres one gal who’s always super nice and sweet but I’ve encountered two others more recently and its such a turn off, makes me not even want to deal with them. Not to mention the wait time is reeeeally long. So one star off for customer service and one star off for how long it takes every time.

I would probably assign 4 stars if only service wasn’t that bad. The food is fresh, although there are not too many options, but the guys who work there are often rude and impolite. It happened with me, my gf and other colleagues, So not just a single case

Cute little spot in the heart of Brickell. I ordered an acaí bowl, and it didn’t satisfy my craving. A little TOO sweet for my taste, and personally, that made me feel guilty eating it. I’m not entirely sure what they added that made it taste more like a sundae than a refreshing fruit bowl, but it left me feeling pretty heavy after my run. It also wasn’t very cold, which I was looking forward to since it already feels like summer down here. I’m open to coming back to try one of their wraps or juices, but for acai lovers, I’d say pass up on this one.

Super good salads! I enjoy the quinoa bowl and Mexican salad. The only down for this place is the price.

Not bad. Nice to have a place in Brickell focusing on healthy food. It’s pretty small… actually just a window with some outdoor seating. They have acai bowls, smoothies and other healthy bites. Good for a post-gym pick me up.

A truly hidden gem in the heart of Brickell. Brickell Fresh Café is exactly what was needed in this area. A quick, healthy, and delicious option for lunch or dinner. Brickell Fresh Café is nestled as a hidden window adjoining RedBar. If you have trouble locating it, it is directly across from Burger & Beer and next to Power Pizza. My wife and I unknowingly walked past this spot a few times and only recently we realized it was a café. Brickell Fresh isn’t exactly a restaurant but offers a small ordering counter with a quaint porch with a few tables for seating. The true allure of Brickell Fresh is the quality and the price. Brickell Fresh offers wraps, bowls, salads and an assortment of cold-pressed juices and smoothies. I ordered the«Mexican Fury» which can be offered in a bowl or wrap. I chose the bowl. My wife ordered the«Berries» salad. Shortly after ordering, our food was ready. The sizes of the bowl and the salad were quite large and after the first bite you could instantly tell that the food was prepared with the freshest ingredients and cooked in a health-conscious matter. The«Mexican Fury» bowl was accompanied with a homemade chipotle crème dressing. The bowl itself was packed with flavor and all the ingredients complimented each other perfectly. With a price point of $ 11.75, it isn’t much more expensive than Chicken Kitchen’s Mexican chop-chop. However, Brickell Fresh offers a far superior and I can almost guarantee that the«Mexican Fury» bowl is made with higher quality ingredients. My wife raved about her salad. I can definitely see Brickell Fresh being around for many years to come. I would highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a quick, healthy, and very delicious meal. Don’t miss the window!

FINALLY!!! A healthy spot in Brickell that is just plain fresh and delicious. The man and woman that work here are always sooo friendly and attentive. The window and seating area is tiny but it doesn’t even matter because the options for juices, smoothies, and food are on point. Love this place so much– can’t wait to try more of their menu items!

The food is fresh, healthy and amazing. I particularly enjoy that you can customize your acai bowls. A few must trys: the lemonade, the Mexican fury bowl. Very tasty. Conveniently located in the center of Brickell. The only thing I’d change about this little gem is that it only has outdoor seating. There’s a window you walk up to order from and a cute little outside patio area to sit in if dining there. It would be nice to sit indoors on those hot or rainy Miami days.

Whenever I am running errands in the Mary brickell area this is my spot to go to for a great healthy meal! Although I had the salmon bowl last time I went I would not recommend it again. the salmon is processed. I would recommend what I had last time which was a berry salad and chicken. In reading the reviews I read the chicken is microwaved– I didn’t witness this myself and the chicken did seem fresh so I would want some clarification on that the next time I go. Other then that, my meal has always been delicious and I genuinely have no complaints about the service.

I absolutely LOVE Brickell Fresh! To me it’s the best healthy and fast lunch or dinner option in Brickell and they deliver very quickly which is a plus. The ingredients are super fresh and organic. Everything on the menu is healthy and high quality. I usually eat here once a week because I crave it so much! I always get the Mexican Fury bowl… I like it so much I haven’t ventured to try anything else, but they have a variety on the menu. Such a good addition to Brickell. The sauce is very spicy which I love but you might want to skip it if you don’t.

Well… I feel the need to update. I frequent Brickell Fresh for lunch and yesterday was not an unusual day. I went to the counter and they were obviously busy so I waited there. I was acknowledged by one of the workers as I stood there. So, I continued to wait. Another patron walked up next to me and less then 5 minutes(I would say 2) he was acknowledged and helped. I was completely looked over. So, I became angry and left. I was going to order lunch for myself and my coworkers. The gentleman they helped only ordered a shake. They missed out. I am quite disappointed with the treatment I received and even though I like the food, I have serious doubts I will return. I am giving 2 stars only because I enjoy the food.

Best healthy spot in brickell. It’s a little pricey but so is everything else in brickell. They are quick and everything is organic. If you’re a health nut, this is heaven.

I know they are just trying to get going, and they were definitely sweet people, but the service was horrible. They got my order wrong even though I had just placed it and was standing right there. The salad I got was ok, but I could have done *much* better at Whole Foods or at home. That’s alright for the convenience and location, but it doesn’t work if you stand there waiting 20 min(only 1 order in front of mine, already in progress) for a very simple 1-person order that still turns out to be wrong. I’m sure they will sort it out eventually, or at least I hope so!

I hate writing a bad review on small businesses but HOLYCOW. The service is terrible. I also to think that the people running this place want to be healthy but they don’t know what healthy is. First of all, the chicken is MICROWAVED!!! What!!! And to add a kicker, it is microwaved in plastic. Healthy… It was the most disgusting chicken I have ever seen and had AND I PAID $ 3 more for it and threw the entire thing out. I didn’t even save it for my dog. Then to follow with the pissed customers waiting way too long for their to go orders including my coworker. We ordered our food together, mine came hers did not. 15 min later after going up to the window several times they give her her order with onions after she specified an allergy when ordering. So what happened? The guy took the onions off with his hands. Just grabbed them and tried to give her the salad. SERIOUSLY?! Again, it sucks I have to write this because this place really does have potential. I should have asked for a refund too but I didn’t want to cause a scene. Let’s just say we will not be back. Ever.

Had lunch here today, what a delicious way to eat healthy. The quantity of food is substantial, the taste is delicious(I almost forgot I was eating healthy) and the ambiance, although small with only outside sitting, is quaint, comfy and with the feel of an outside organic garden. Can’t wait to tell my friends about it and go back for more. Highly recommended.

Just ordered pick up from here. They got absolutely EVERYTHING wrong on my order. Even down to the drinks. Someone else has went and picked it up. Returned. The order was still wrong even after I called and explained what happened. They offered to have us to go pick up the correct order for the third time and repeatedly told me «not my fault. It’s the websites fault.» Worst customer service ever. Just for that I will never be returning. REPLYTOMARKETINGDIRECTOR: Your response was just as «helpful» as the employees and«managers» of this place of business. You refrained to take accountability for the fact your employees expected a customer to return THREE times to correct such an easy order. How is this right? How is your response in any way ever going to want me to go back? The lack of customer service in Miami is absolutely appalling and embarrassing.

Great place, truly healthy and great flavor! Went there for lunch and got the Mexican bowl. It came with a good ratio of chicken, rice and mixed greens. Also tried the Brazilian Beauty smoothie, and noticed not too much sweetener was added, which I loved. It was perfectly sweet, creamy and fruity. No inside seating, but the terrace is lovely!
