Restaurant Miami Déli

The place looks original and different, though some might find it tacky. There's a lot of things to choose from in their menu. Wasn't sure what their specialty was, but luckily, what I chose was fine. Some menu items were a bit too salty. Service was good, except that the server misunderstood our instructions for billing.

Miami Deli, right in the heart of Centre-Sud on Sherbrooke Street, is as classic Montreal as it gets. Whether you’re after a solid breakfast or a late-night bite, this spot always delivers. The staff here are absolute stars. They greet you like an old friend and make you feel like you’re their favorite customer every single time. Their friendly vibe and attention to detail set the tone for why this place feels so special year after year. Let’s talk poutine—Miami Deli serves one of the best in the city. It’s a true Montreal staple. I know, purists might raise an eyebrow, but I always swap the cheese curds for mozzarella. Call it sacrilege if you want, but trust me, it’s a game-changer. Located just uphill from Mutoide Microbrewery (check them out if you haven’t already!) and a few steps up the hill from Préfontaine Metro, Miami Deli is the perfect stop for comfort food fans and night owls alike. This place captures the essence of an old-school Montreal deli—quirky decor, welcoming people, and food that hits the spot every time. Whether it’s for a big breakfast or a late-night indulgence, Miami Deli is the kind of spot that keeps you coming back.

An overall amazing dine out for breakfast. Had Pancake , French Toast & Coffee, would rate it really high. Impressed with service from experience people. Food quality top notch. Pure local canadian bliss. Recommended.

Love the atmosphere here. So thematically East Coast Canada vibe with the lobster traps and big fish on the walls. Lots of fun for all ages. The menu is the classic everything a diner with booths should be. Staff are always super friendly and approachable. I ordered, went to the bathroom and when I returned my drink and appetiser was waiting for me. Open really late too. Plenty of easy parking. Family friendly. Great for the morning after on so many occasions.

We honestly stumbled upon this place by accident. Having finished the light show in the jardin botanique, we drove around for a restaurant opening late, and Lo and behold, Miami Deli emerged all bright and shiny! Open 24h!!!!! At 22:30, it was still packed! It’s a huge place too with a gigantic menu serving literally everything from pizza to Greek souvlaki to Chinese food??!! And their breakfast menu is simply divine. We had their classic poutine, chicken souvlaki, a club sandwich and calamari. Even the black coffee is great, no refills though. 🙃 The waitress was an elderly lady with friendly and super sweet! Reminds me of those cynically delicious career waitresses from the western diners in the desert. While our French was not strong enough to make quips, we appreciated her enthusiasm and smiles. The decor is a landmark of its own!!! Very colourful and whimsical. Anyway, whether craving for breakfast, brunch, or late night snack, Miami Deli is your best bet!

Hi Excellent meal tonight, not culinary art, but good, took the half ribs with 6 chicken wings ,side of rice ,well seasoned. Tossed salad 🥗 with house dressing, creamy lightly sweet, For dessert apple pie 🥧 topped with crumble with a freshly squeezed orange 🍊 juice 😋 Prices are low . Staff friendly, large parking

I had onion soup - it was so delicious! My wife took a double burger and we couldn't believe the size of that burger! I think I saw her licking the plate.

The breakfast miami special was good and good price. The orange juice was 5$ but I asked and can confirm by drinking it is fresh squeezed orange juice so worth it. Coffee didnt taste much, if you drink one at home youll need 2minimum here. Good service and the food came quickly. The place has its own big parking lot. Came on a friday morning and it was busy but there was no wait at the entrance as the place is spacious and has an outdoor section in front. I recommend for breakfast.

Miami Deli gives a good family vibe. The servers are kind, and the dishes are huge. Whoever was in charge of decorating this place exceeded expectations. Miami Deli removes you from the concrete Montreal streets and plunges you into a tropical eatery, which gave me flashbacks to restaurants in Acapluco in the 90s. The dishes are big, so watch out for those hungry eyes; they may betray you. As vast as the food can get, their kitchen is not as memorable. I had some fried calamari and a fish filet with almonds. The calamari were not different from the ones you can get in a pub. The fish was decent and saved the day. I would say that this place must be good for having drunk or hangover food. The service and quantity will make you happy. Their kitchen, not so much. I recommend it but with a grain of salt.

What a fun and unexpected diner style restaurant. Brightly decorated, friendly staff and great food.

Great place for smoked meat. I think one the best in Montreal to my tasting. Welcoming stuff , decor is weird but food was delicious. Took the lunch special , a soup followed by a main dish (lI took the smoked meat plate with Caesar salad replacing the fries) . Generous portion , well presented and prepared to my liking. Very descent price for the quality . Highly recommended especially for smoked meat.

I went there multiples times and even ordered from them for delivery and never been disappointed . They got big and delicious sandwiches , enormous slices of chocolate cake and some mouth watering breakfast. Staff is super sweet I 100% recommand this place. Plus their menu is both written in French and English for those who doesn't speak one or the other

Love this place! I've been ordering take out for a while now and no matter what I try, it's always delicious. I love comfort food and classic staples, so a good poutine, club sandwich, gyro, smoked meat or pizza for example are excellent choices. The menu selection is huge, delivery is fast and portions are large too. This place is open 24 hours but does not deliver 24 hours, so just be aware if you are hungry in the middle of the night. One of my favorite items is the "chinese chicken fried rice". It's not really chinese food, but it's awesome. There are big chunks of chicken, tomatoes, and green onions which make it super flavorful. For around 10$, it's plenty enough for a meal or to share as many sides. I recently went for breakfast and was not disappointed either. I had their "miami omelette" which again was very generous with the toppings and portion. Compared to other breakfast chains, I feel like I'm getting my money's worth here. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is the price of their pizzas. I wish I could make this my go to place for pizzas, but their prices are a little steep. There are numerous joints offering 2 for 1 type deals, but almost every pizza at Miami Deli is 20$ or upwards for just one. Worth a visit, there's something for everyone!

Hello All, Miami deli is a fine diner in Montreal. Compared to its peers Miami has the most quirky decor. You get to experience a taste of Florida on Sherbrooke east which is nice. The food is on par with its peers. I suggest Miami deli. It will always be there for you as it is a 24h restaurant. Brandon.

*** UPDATE AND WARNING *** Feb 2019: I'm amending my previous review after an unfortunate incident at Miami Deli: I am (was) a frequent customer, but was recently blatantly overcharged for an order. It was too late (few days) before I checked my bill more closely and realized. But a word of warning to check your bill carefully if you eat here. As for me, while it was only $3, I despise this type of pull-a-fast-one-when-they-aren't-paying-attention b.s.; I ate there weekly, sometimes twice a week, and felt I could trust them and became complacent. I was wrong. So you've now lost a customer. Hope it was worth $3.

The Miami Deli is really close to me and delivers so I thought it would be a good option when I didn't want to cook. The takeout menu is pretty standard and features pizza, burgers and other staples of fast food. Once you have placed your order the food comes pretty quickly. When talkig food the pizzas are a little overpriced and just not very good. I find that there are way too many toppings which makes the crust very soggy and consequently it is messy to eat. That being said I still have yet to try other things on the takeout menu so I would be inclined to give it another chance because they did seem more reasonably priced.

Large Menu, Check. Angry waiters, Check. Huge Portions, Check...you are at a diner. The food is good, the coffee is strong as hell, the waiters are super busy at all times. I love that they served fruit with all of the breakfasts, the potatoes are awesome, the omelettes were cooked just enough, not dry. I love that they also serve beans. Worth trying for a cheap meal, great outdoor seating.

The WORST pizza I ever had in my whole life! I am not messing around. Way too greasy, way too much cheese, and the last time I looked, pepperoni slices were ABOVE the cheese, NOT below! No wonder they tasted like rubber discs. Not eating it again.

This place has my favourite sous-marins in town, love that they serve them with French dressing, all sandwiches should come with French dressing. Been a customer for around 4 years now. It's nothing fancy, but it's a diner, it shouldn't be. All in all: Thumbs up.

Ordered delivery from there tonight. Good, tasty, a ton of fries (more than I can eat but my roommate is going to be a happy man because of it) and well cooked chicken. My only complaint, which is a fairly big one, is that I ordered mozzarella sticks for 6,95 and they arrived cold, hard and were somehow accompanied with a piece of banana, cantaloupe, and orange. Having mozzarella sticks that taste like orange was not enjoyable whatsoever and just really bizarre. I wouldn't have ordered them had I known. Quick delivery, the guy was really nice.

When you walk in you will be taken back to Miami in the 80's. This dive of a spot actually has great Greek food. We had the chicken dish and it was amazing. They also have freshly squeezed OJ. It's not a Michelin star restaurant but a cozy diner with condom dispensers. It is what it is, if you catch yourself walking in a shady neighborhood on the way to the botanical garden stop by.

Typical deli style food. Nothing to fall of your chair for. Good food done right! Breakfast served 24hrs/7. Huge portions. Did i mention that this place is always opened? 24/7. The staff is super helpful and friendly! Prices are bit higher then other places similar to this.

Usually a good time, late last night I ordered a club and it was served fridge cold; wasn't happy but apparently the cook says that's how it's served. They warmed it up for me but that didn't really help. It was a sub par experience but usually they are the place to be for late night pigging out. I gave them 3 for nostalgia and general past quality but I'd stay away from the compressed cold af chicken club.

Lots of options but the food wasn't the greatest. It's ok for a dive. not much else to say. service was fast. decor was...to put it in certain words...interesting.

Ok for a late night breakfast but old school restaurant not as up to date as some of the newer breakfast places

Great place to eat when everything is closed around as this place is open 24/7! Greek chicken souvlaki was great, came with a big side plate of salad, potatoes and rice.

I normaly get the subs, their always yummy. The pizza is kinda pricy but its very well made, depending your budget it can be well worth it. The deco is, interesting loll the service is fast, same with their delivery. And i mean open 24hs!! As a late nighter, i end up ordering here way to often lol

Great little breakfast spot we found while walking around dying of thirst and hunger. Interesting to see a Miami themed restaurant in Canada with everyone speaking French lol.

First impression walking into this establishment was that it needs a major makeover, from the outdated fake flowers to the hanging Sharks. The menu isn't anything special, typical diner food from burgers to subs to breakfast, what really stands out here is the service, very nice waitress. I had a breakfast plate and it was okay, someone took the smoked meat platter and it looked really good. Can't go wrong with smoke meat in Montreal. Would come back.

Looking for a breakfast spot on our way back. It was recommended to us. Nothing too special, your regular no frills breakfast spot. It was very affordable and amazingly quick. Good size portions. Free parking. Simple breakfast with "Miami" decor.

Been coming here for about 6 years. Bright and spacious diner with a ton of comfortable booths. Their specialty is breakfast although they have all you could dream of for lunch and diner... wait did I mention it's open 24hrs! Yes you can have breakfast here anytime of the day you want! The staff are experienced and friendly... pretty smooth joint. The decor is fun tropical flowers and trees + a waterfall are hanging everywhere and different fish and sharks hang from the ceiling... not your avg cookie cutter diner. If you're with your kids try to sit near the giant fish tank. Tropical colorful fish will amuse you all! Pay cash or credit. No debit. Great value.

The food was good. The service was a bit spotty but we did come again for breakfast while in Montreal a few times. We had omelette which was good, over easy eggs, pancakes and crepes, as well as fruits, french toast and other item. Overall it was good enough spot for us to come almost everyday during out stay in Montreal.

Had breakfast here today. The staff was wonderfully friendly and accommodating. The menu is standard diner food and moderately priced. We ordered the mushroom omelette and it was generously portioned to share with my toddler and still had leftovers. The potatoes were so crispy ad my favorite item. The fresh fruit was perfectly ripe and refreshing. The omelette was overcooked but edible and not too bad. This place is open 24/7 which is always a plus in my book :)

Greasy food, massive portions, and an odd Florida-theme in the middle of Montreal. We came here because there was really nowhere else open at the time in the area. We were not disappointed. The waitresses seem stressed and unfriendly, but I can't complain. It's a deli not fine dining. I ordered the souvlaki dish, which was actually pretty decent. At least as good as fast food-style greek food. The one major oddity was that the feta cheese was in the form of a solid block on top of the salad, which I haven't seen before but after some Googling, it's apparently a thing.

Standard greasy spoon. Some discounts if you sign up online for their newsletter and on your birthday. I ate there for breakfast, which was tasty. Upside is that it's open 24 hours and serves breakfast all day. There is also a terrace in the summer, but people usually smoke. The inside of the restaurant looks like a scene taken from the 1970s, once brightly coloured but now faded.

Best place for breakfast all day and night.

Unexpectedly delicious. Great value for some delicious breakfast food. Nice outdoor seating. We passed this place while on our 3 mile walk to the Botanical Gardens and were starving. We were pleasantly surprised.

They are quite convenient (24/7), you just need to survive the initial shock when you get it. Their deco reminded me of those Brazilian Carnival parades.

the atmosphere is awesome, very cosy.. the food is nothing fancy but always satisfying, it's everything a dinner is supposed to be AND OPEN 24 H!!!!!

They sent the delevery guy to collect the money first without the pizzas after 40mins, then made me wait another half hour to actually deliver the meal.
