Delicious burgers and sweet potato fries

We loved it here. 100% vegan so no worries there.
The food was absolutely delicious. A must visit when in Brickell!

Greasy and delicious

The Cocinita is the place to be in Miami for greasy vegan comfort food. Definitely not a health restaurant, but the food was all really good, just might need to take a nap after!

The Best Awaits you at "The Cocinita

So happy to discover The Cocinita when so hungry and so budget conscious ! The totally Vegan Cuban combination was delicious and more than ample ! Soursap drink wonderful & refreshing. French fries exciting since you don't have to worry about the oil being dead animal based !
It's all Vegan and Andre is a wonderful joyous person greeting his customers. Very clean and easy to find right off Miami River beginning at Brickell. Great quiet location too. Thanks Andre and all !

Best comfort food

After some shopping, this is the best place to go! Keep in mind, the sides are huge! So share a side! :)

Hit the spot!

We ordered delivery through DoorDash. Pita and hummus, Falafel burger, Cocinita burger, and carrot cake. The hummus was fresh and creamy, the pita bread was warm and moist (amazing considering it was delivered), and both burgers were absolutely delicious.

Healthy Comfort Food

I LOVE this place. Every time I’m in Miami I make it a point to come here. Best Vegan burgers ever. I’m slowly working my way through their menu. Will update when I have the bowls and wraps…I’m excited for it! Owner is super cool too. Friendly and remembers people. Feels like family here!

Stuffed for Two Days Straight 🍟☀️😍

We found this spot, of course, on HappyCow, and oh man, what a solid move that was. The burgers were crazy tasty, and we couldn’t not get fries. They give you a mountain of ’em! We had to take some home because our stomachs tapped out. If you’re in Miami and craving some vegan food, this is the spot. Don’t miss it!

Pros: Get some fries! , Super friendly staff., Tasty burgers.

Vegan Fried egg on the Burger

The burger and the special fries I had were damn good! I ordered a fried egg for my burger and it was crazy good. It really tasted like a fried egg. The special fries I got were also so good, the vegan cheese and sauce tasted amazing. I deeply recommend you to go here.

Pros: Staff, Atmosphere, Fried egg

Amazing food!

The food was absolutely delicious. I had one portobello taco appetizer was so flavorful and could have eaten 5! The burger was so good and just the right size with super tasty garlic sauce. The Cachapa was great as well. Andres was so friendly and super helpful.

Pros: Super fresh and flavorful. , Friendly staff, Original and unique dishes.

Awesome reliable spot for nutritiois, tasty, fresh food

This place is a sneaky contender for being one of the best vegan spots in Miami. It doesn't look like much at first - kind of like a smoothie bar that happens to also serve burgers and burritos - but it's really so much more. We love Latin flavors and also seek healthy, macrobiotic type meals with plenty of beans, grains, and veggies. We were able to get exactly this type of food by customizing some of the classics: the Mexican bowl and the green bowl. They make customizations easy including healthy options like substituting brown rice or quinoa for the white rice. The more we inspected their menu, the more pleasant surprises we discovered, such as the whole grain arepas made with flax and chia seeds and moringa (revolutionary!) and the baked plantains (a rarity). Also loved the smoothies and protein shakes. As if the great food weren't enough, we were astonished to find that they carry a hyperlocal kombucha made by Dr. Simon that we have yet to find anywhere else. And it was delicious! We loved the peach flavor and kept going back for more.

Pros: Fresh nutritious food, Many high-protein items, Open late!

Cons: Slightly high prices

Really flavorful

I did come here specifically wanting the cachapa and they were out, so that was a bummer but I ended up with their burger and really enjoyed it, great sauce. The fries were a little boring, I’d probably skip them in the future.

My go to vegan spot in Brickell

I’ve tried just about every gluten free option at the cocinita and love this place 😍😂

The lentil soup and Choricachapa are my favorites! I highly recommend the #5 smoothie with the chia seeds.

Pros: Hospitality, Gluten free options, Consistently amazing

Incredible Vegan Burgers & Yuca Fries!

The burgers are absolutely amazing! So flavorful and satisfying. The fried yuca was perfectly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Such a great spot for delicious vegan comfort food. I will definitely be back!

Pros: 100% vegan menu with amazing flavors

Best vegan find in awhile!

My husband found this place by doing a Google search for restaurants near our hotel that had vegan food. I'm so glad that this place popped up on his search because it was phenomenal!
The whole restaurant is vegan and most is the dishes are also gluten free or can be made gluten free.

We decided to split a few things to try, which included:
French Fries with a side of Yummy Sauce
The Choricachapa
Mr Mitrano Burger with a lettuce wrap instead of a bun

All were so tasty and seemed very clean. The service and atmosphere were also spot on. I highly recommend this place if you're in the area looking for good vegan and gluten free choices.

Pros: Fully vegan menu, Almost everything gluten free, Cleaner food

So good!!

Excellent!! I'm only in town for a day for business, and I'm so glad I found this restaurant! The food was so flavorful and fresh, the staff were welcoming and kind, and it is a beautiful restaurant with lots of fresh greenery. Next time I'm in Miami, I will definitely be coming back.

Pros: Delicious and fresh food, Beautiful , Good portions for the price

Cons: It's not in NYC where I live 😏

Amazing food, fantastic service!!!

What a great find! The service was great, the dining area was small and quaint. All the food was amazing!!!!
We got the following:
Cheese Empanada - perfectly fried and deliciously cheesy. I normally don’t care much for vegan cheese but I really loved this.

French Fries were a thin style fry, a lot like McDonald’s which some may not like but before becoming Vegan I loved their fries so this was a great treat!!

Yummy Burger has caramelized onions, mushrooms, cheese, etc and was like a mushroom Swiss amazing!!

Goody Burger more like a basic cheeseburger.

I also got their fresh squeezed orange juice which was also incredible!
Can’t recommend enough!!!!

Very convenient for downtown

After a very long food-free day of travel having this little gem a few mins walk from my hotel was a boon. I was greeted by a very friendly server who stepped me through the online ordering and gave me excellent recommendations. The food came out quickly on a tray. I’ll definitely be back to try some more of the menu

Pros: Quick and friendly service, Food good

Cons: Music a bit loud if you wanted to talk, Seating more functional than comfortable

Great option in the heart of Brickell

Visited before and enjoyed the food, but particularly after running the Miami Marathon last Sunday, the vegetable soup and rice plate with plantains, avocado, plant based crumble and beans literally took me from passing out to life. They also offer a vegan happy meal, which was my daughter’s first one! That joy is something I’ll always remember!

Pros: Kids happy meal!, Spanish plates and bowls!, Burgers

Totes amazeballs 😋

Visiting Miami for the marathon and had lunch here, 10 min walk from Downtown. I had their premiere burger plus the coleslaw and french fries. Very tasty and I’m stuffed!!! Gonna come back for dinner later…

Good

You can order on a screen or directly at the counter. The guy was very nice. I had the Cocinita bowl for there and the pancakes for take away. Both very satisfying. You can sit in- or outside. And they open at 9am not 11. #Veganuary
