What People Are Saying About Icebox Cafe
The Editor

In Short – Guests that sidestep the stuffy restaurants that line Lincoln Road have an antidote in Icebox. The bright and cheery coffeehouse has an open air kitchen. Daily baked desserts are also on display. It's not all about the sweets, as local beachgoers and early bird clubhoppers come by for international eats like tortilla soup, spring rolls, and pumpkin ravioli on a perpetually changing menu. The weekend offers an extended brunch menu until 4pm.

Great
by AMIAMI
Love this place!
The food was great, and came out pretty fast even though it was packed.
The service was a little slow, because the servers were overwhelmed, but it was nice and attentive.
Great for breakfast or lunch, it's not the cheapest place, but it's worth it 100%.
Will return for sure, try it!
- Pros: Food
- Cons: none

Ice Box: service is lacking!
by michaelmiami
Ice Box is a great rest in South Beach, friendly owner and very good food. The kind of place you want to go to regularly. However, the last two times I have been there I have had a bad experience with the wait staff. The first time I went in with a friend and the waiter knocked over the salt and sugar packet holder and just walked away, leaving the packets strewn over the table and then served attitude throughout our lunch. The second time was worse...I went in at 3pm to eat some of their great cake desserts and sat at the counter for at least 5 minutes before anyone paid me any attention - the place was empty and the waiters were all involved in some heated exchange amongst themselves. I got up and walked out. Unfortunately the place suffers from the Miami Beach problem - too much attitude by those whose job it is to wait tables in a pleasant efficient way.
- Pros: Good hearty food, great desserts, good value
- Cons: Poor service

Horrible service!!
by Nat1ca
Sad to say I had very high expectations of this place unfortunately the only thing I received besides what i ordered was attitude and no willingness to accomodate our requests. Made our experience very unpleasant..... would not go back again
- Cons: bad service, plus gratuity is included.
