Ordered the Santa Fa Chicken salad. It was huge and well worth the price. Only issue I had was the section we were in was too busy for the one waitress that was working. Only had one glass of water the entire time there. Also I'm not familiar with why people like them but I was turned off by the fact Dolphin was on the menu. Overall I agree that the decor is dated but the food was outstanding. Would definitely go again in a heartbeat.

This place has been here for years. I've come to eat lunch with my mom a few times when I was younger and their soups are great! I came by myself for a quick lunch after a meeting and it seems the service here has gotten pretty bad.. I decided to sit outside because the weather was beautiful but I quickly regretted my decision when I had to wait 20 minutes for someone to finally attend me at my table. I finally got my bread and water. The bread is delicious, the food is in general. I got the Southwest Salad and it was pretty good! I loved the dressing but like I said.. service is slow and no one really seems happy to be there.

I've been coming here for-e-ver. I'll make it easy for you: bread, soup, anything else and you're set for that day and leftovers the next. They also make some of their desserts in house. Salads are delicious and big enough to feed a small Ethiopian village. You can't go wrong with any soup, order them all. Lunch is packed but well worth it. I can't stop eating here, I crave it. Their menu is so large that you don't have to order the same thing for months.

Beverly Hills is near my house and I've been eating food from there for as long as I can remember. Seriously though, they had a fire when I was a kid and were closed for a while to renovate - my family was at a loss when figuring out what to eat because we used to get take out from Beverly Hills at least 3 times a week. The restaurant has quite the extensive menu. Their most popular items are probably the salads, which are huge. The soups are also pretty good, especially when eaten with their warm, delicious bread. A few of the other items I typically order are the Philly cheese steak, potato skins, and Beverly Hills pasta. I also enjoy the broccoli bites, cajun chicken Philly, and occasionally will order a chicken grill (chicken breast sandwich). For dessert, you must try the Tollhouse cookie pie, assuming you are a big chocolate fan. If not, their cookies are pretty delicious. Tip: If you're doing take-out and want a chocolate chip cookie, ask on the phone whether or not they have any so they can be saved. They go quickly and a lot of cookies can be sold during the 20 minute wait time to pick up your order!

This is nice little restaurant that offers a good variety of dishes, however my gf and I typically order their salads. I absolutely love their Buffalo Chicken Bleu Cheese Salad. It consists of greens topped off with fried chicken tenders, red onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, mandarin orange slices, croutons and bleu cheese of course. I tend to drench this delicious creation with their Sweet and sour Bleu cheese or creamy bleu cheese dressing. They also start your meal off with a couple of their rolls served with warm butter; they are great and act as a great sponge to soak up any left over salad dressing you may have. The service is solid, neither great nor horrible.

This has been a staple in the heart of Miami Lakes its pretty decent has a bunch of american food from mouthwatering burgers with these awesome fries, a whole menu by itself of salads and not boring ones and a good potato soup, also have mexican, pizzas, sandwiches I have stir frys which their beverly hills stir fry is amazing this is what I order and its huge. The sweet rolls they give u are soooo good too, it cost the most 13.00 overall its good, fast, and not so pricey.

The Salads at the BH are of the best in the city. The serve a very generous portion of salads made of the freshest ingredients. Also the make sure you don't run out of dressing as is comes to the table in a little coffee creamer type container. Moving on to the rolls, they are to die for, always served steaming hot with butter on the side.

First time coming here for dinner and I can't complain the food was delicious!!! I ordered a chicken perm sandwich it was bigger the I expected definitely worth the wait and the price, even though they weren't that busy you can tell that they take their time to make the food. The bread rolls here are amazing very addictive as some of the other reviewers have put down as well. I love the old time feel of this place takes you back to when we had diners around. I plan to come here again and try some of their other dishes, saw chicken Cesar salad that looked wonderful.

Great salads I recommend the crispy chicken cobb salad! In addition, every salad is huge and can be shared with a friend. Okay selection of beers, but again, the place is known for their salads. I would definitely return for some more eats!

The buns are awesome! I don't like how they chop their salad so I ask for it sliced. They always do it. It's a bit pricey for the food. Most of the waiters are young kids. Not really great service. It's an ok place. I really don't love it much, but my husband likes their salads so I come with him all the time.

Thanks to my trusty Yelp app, I found this spot when I was trying to find somewhere to eat in the area with my best friend after work. WE WERE STARVING (Like always). I had no idea what I was going to eat here, I recalled eating here once or twice when I was much, much younger. All I could remember was that the bread was good, and yes. it. was. The bread rolls were very warm and soft. They bring them out with a dollop of butter and the butter just melted into the roll when I put it on it. So good! I ordered their Buffalo chicken strips with EXTRA blue cheese- I love blue cheese! The food didn't take long and it was pretty good. The blue cheese was so good though, I feel as though some places don't have good blue cheese or ranch, but theirs was great. The fries were seasoned fries and I really liked them too. However, next time I would like to get their Buffalo Chicken Salad or their Southwest Chicken Salad... they both sounded good, and I saw a couple receive their salads and THEY WERE HUGE! Definitely getting that next time. The service was great also. Our server was really sweet, not talkative at all, but, brought out everything promptly.

From the the fresh bread to the tea, this place is consistent, fresh, and a throwback. Beverly Hills looks like it is fresh out of the 80's, from their music to their decor. Any chicken plate is fabulous, their salads are great (the sweet island chutney dressing is PERFECT), and the soups are robust and rich in flavor. Service can be a hit or miss, but Beverly Hills is the perfect lunch spot.

The place smells like a retirement center. The food has very low seasoning such as the fried chicken sandwich and cheese steak. I also asked for extra cheese on the Philly cheesesteak sandwich but it did not have extra cheese. The broccoli and cheese soup tasted good however it had some hard chunks in it. When it was time to pay, no one was around! The complimentary rolls were good. Nothing wow'd us so will not be back. Not worth the price.

This is one of those places that deserves to go out of business but doesn't ... I have lived in Miami Lakes for years and have eaten here at least 40 times.... I can say this with some certainty: their soup of the day is ALWAYS broccoli soup. Their salads are virtually all the same (and taste the same)... Hot plate food is microwaved and bland. So why do I go? I just don't know man...... convenience, to fill my stomach quick, the nice teenage waitresses they hire as servers, the bread (the dinner rolls are very good and hot).... This place has a diner atmosphere and several TV's on the wall. Make sure you arrive with your complete party in tow or else they will make you stand there and wait until your companions arrive. This seems to be a hard and fast rule (even if the place is empty). That's really all I can say.

Not a bad place for lunch. Upon arriving I was a bit skeptical and a bit let down by the lack of friendly faces. Honestly I wasn't greeted by anyone or even acknowledged. I was very hungry or shall I say on the verge of Hangry. I thought this would surely end up as a 2 or 1 star review. The place is somewhere on the corner of 50s meets 80s. It's a little retro. But the music is great if you like 80s music. I was digging it :-) I agree with other reviews that the place needs a little touch up or a bit of tlc but if you can get past this, the salads are actually good. Where we sat it was also quite chilly so bring a little something to cover up if you're wearing short sleeves (I remember reading in other reviews that it was cold here). But anyhow, the salads. THEY ARE HUGE. I ordered the Chinese salad with fried chicken and it was delightful. It must've been approximately $12 and I could've easily shared this with someone. Honestly I think if you get a soup and a salad, two people can share this and actually have a light lunch at a very reasonable price.

Beverly Hills is less than a minute from where I live and I have gone to eat there 5-6 times and have ordered take-out about the same amount of times in the past year. Although their service is good and the servers are attentive, the food is hit or miss. Their salads are great, they're definitely their strong-point. I always order the same thing - their Fajita Salad with steak which comes in a crispy taco shell with grilled peppers, onions, cheese, sour cream, guacamole, and salsa. It's pretty delicious. However, any time I have deviated from their salads, I have left disappointed with the food. I've tried their skirt steak topped with mushrooms, onions, and cheese and the steak was not cooked well. We ordered it medium and it was overcooked and rubbery. The side of vegetables that it came with were practically flavorless and required a ton of salt to even be able to eat. If you eat here, stick with their salads and their bread and you won't be disappointed.

An ode to older style restaurants. It feels right out of the eighties or nineties. The menu is huge and sometimes make it tough to decide. The bread is delicious and the portions are huge. Sometimes the staff is not good. They have some waiters that are amazing and some that are lackluster. The food is not five star cuisine, but definitely good for a quick diner type bite.

Maritza S.
It's an ok place. I think their quality has gone down over the years. I always order the Caesar salad. Or the Cobb salad my last time I noticed that the chicken portion of the Cobb salad was very small compared to what it used to be. I think they may be making their portions smaller, but prices the same. This is an almost $15 salad there should be more protein in it . The water needs to be asked for, the waiters don't just tell it. It's gone down, unfortunately.

The BHC is not gourmet, but it will certainly satisfy a particular tooth...especially if you are one who enjoys the sight of a large portion. I have been to this location several times and after having tried some various dishes my conclusion is it is a good place to grab a bite BUT you MUST learn how to order. Example: Do not expect the California shrimp pasta to come with avocados that are perfectly ripe (or ripe at all, for that matter) for such care to detail is a bit more demanding than this place offers. However, it is a creamy Alfredo-type dish, so if you're into that, don't hesitate. Also, they will gladly change the pasta shape for you to say linguini, penne, etc. Do NOT order the salmon if you are a big salmon fan. I have made this mistake twice and both times, they have broiled it to the point of being too dry. If you just want a simple salad and the heart of the dish (salmon) is staggeringly dull...your meal becomes a disappointment. It is much better to just avoid this altogether and go for any of their strengths...which I would say is any chicken dish or a burger for something more primitive. Chicken parmigiana (when I've seen others order it) always needs more mariana, so ask for extra. Their salads are varied and huge, dressing is always on the side if you're one who prefers that. I'd recommend cheese on the side too. Too many calories and not high enough quality to justify them. Also, excessive. You do not want flavor to be drowned by a single ingredient. The Asian chicken dish is really good...and they are very accommodating with switching out rice for lettuce or anything like that if you want low carb. Speaking of carbs, the bread and butter at the start of the meal is probably the best thing. Warm and sweet pillows with a whipped butter that dissolves in your mouth. Hard to resist. Stick to the basics. The simple food is what they do best. It's not fine dining, but it's pretty good.

Ok place for a quick bite, salads are huge and fresh. Big issue with cleanliness. I ordered take away and as I waited I could not help but look at freezer behind cashier and small upper refrigerator. Mold all over upright freezer door ; and the fridge with sliding door very dirty. They should really invest in major clean up or better yet make a small investment in a new freezer and fridge. Hope the kitchen in the rear is cleaner.....3 stars is for the food only.

Huge fan of BHC! I've been eating here for nearly 28 years. Oh wait, I'm only 27 so how'd that happen? Forget the Math! The menu selections are unbelievable. It doesn't matter what you're in the mood for, you'll find a menu item to satisfy your craving. They have short healthy side menu with several good selections, the alternative casserole is excellent-rice cooked perfectly and salmon, yes salmon, is perfect. They also have over 30 salads to pick from, I've had at least 8 and all were good and oversized portions. They have a burger section, a Mexican section (Mexican pizza and quesadillas are great), a pasta section and more. Ribs and steak, which I never expect to be good at a restaurant unless it's the specialty, are very good here. Ribs are fall off the bone. Service is also exceptional. Quick and with a smile and typically, you will find the owner on site. Oh, and rarely a wait! We're surprised this place hasn't gotten more attention. Maybe I shouldn't post this. Lol!

BHC has been around in Miami Lakes I believe before I was even born. In restaurant years, that it an eternity. BHC serves the local Miami Lakes community, as well as the lunch crowd from the many businesses in the area. You can never go wrong with ordering any salad here. The menu consists of over 10 different salads, which are mega portioned that can easily be shared. My favorite is the classic Crispy Chicken Cobb with a side of honey mustard. Not so light, but its the best salad I've ever had in all seriousness. BHC also offers sandwiches, wraps, burgers and pastas, along with entrees. But my go-to item is always the salad. The bread rolls and sweet butter is also a nice treat and quite addictive. If you are ever in the area around lunch time, I highly recommend coming to BHC. Consistent and comforting!

Food was good, waitress was pleasant and the rolls were delicious. Everything was fresh, clean and nicely cut. However, I should have ordered soup since it was freezing in there. I've been coming here for years and wish they would finally give it a 'face lift." A nice little remodeling would do this place some good.

Carb addicts everywhere unite!!! There is nothing like their freshly baked bread!!! Trust me. Second best item: the cream of broccoli! So yes, you can enjoy vegetables. It's loaded with chunks of broccoli and cheese..yummy cheese. So, if after you've gorged on bread and the cream of broccoli you have room, try anything on the menu. I dare you to finish it. The portions are HUGE. As a salad lover, I suggest all of them. Their home made dressing makes you want to bathe in cause it's sooooo good!

Ana F.
The bread rolls you receive upon arrival are delicious! I usually order the same thing, the Crispy Chicken Salad which i love. All the salads are huge, 2 or even 3 people can eat from just one or you can just take the rest home and they even give you extra dressing! I come back here at least once a month.

This place is good enough to come back every once in a while. The food isn't bad but this very last time I tried a spinach salad and added mahi. I requested the spicy vinaigrette dressing, which was very good. I did enjoy the salad, but don't necessary believe I should pay practically $20 for a salad. The complimentary bread is great, they're brought out warm and with some butter to add. I do have to say the Spinach bites are definitely a must with the honey mustard dip! I will be back but definitely won't be my first choice considering the amount of bang for your buck.

If I am going to be in Miami Lakes during lunch hours, I am coming here. The food is fresh and very healthy. If you are watching what you eat, this is the place to come. The plates are large, but I promise you that the calories aren't... They provide for a very nutrient dense meal when you order the salads and if you are watching your carbs, trust me they have something for you too. The staff is good, sometimes a little slow, but that's ok.

While the decor and menu haven't changed since the 80s, I can't quite say the same for the quality of the food (or maybe my childhood memories of the burgers and salads are better than the current offerings). Portions are generous, the staff are ok - nothing memorable one way or another. It's better than dining off the side of the Turnpike, but not really a place for a particularly great meal and night out with friends.

Beverly Hills Cafe. It's a shame that it closed down in the Sunset Place area. Their Beverly Hills pasta is amazing, so is their bread. They knock it out of the park with their salads and have the best ranch dressing I ever had (it's homemade!) Thank heavens that there is still one in Miami Lakes. I will be back.

I should have had a salad based on the reviews. I was excited to see their extensive menu, and decided to go with a sandwich instead of one of their large, plentiful salads. The bread was stale and dry and greasy. How's that possible? The tomatoes were not even ripe and were flavorless. Not to mention one of the slices was the end piece with the stem hole on it. I hate that. I did have a side salad and that was very good. Someone at our table had a fish sandwich and complained that the fish was chewy and dry, overcooked and not that fresh. Given that Miami is not very vegan friendly to begin with, I have to say this is a good place for vegan options, but you'll be limited to salad and sandwiches, and maybe soups on somedays. They also offered a veg burger, but not sure if it was vegan or not. The service was pretty good in the beginning, but once we got our food the waiter kind of disappeared until we asked for the check.

My experience here hasn't been so good the past couple of times. The service was super slow and the sad part was that the restaurant wasn't even full; our waitress had only one table. There's really no excuse for slow service when the place is that empty. However, I have been coming here for years and my overall experience has been pretty good. They do deliver which is always an added bonus. My favorite meal is the philly cheesestake. Their teriyaki steak and yellow rice is also delicious. It's a good place to go to for a quick lunch. They also have a lot of health options so if you're on a diet this would be a good place to try out.

B'Hills has a huge selection of salads, nice burgers and sandwiches. It's great for lunch as there are many selections and you don't have much excuse to be terribly picky. But I would not go to this place for dinner. It kind of looks like your grand mamas dining room, which is fine but not for dinner. No offence G'Maa... Waiters are good, they have good days and off days depends who you get and what you ask for...but again this is a great place for lunch. The food is fresh, it comes out fast, and reasonably priced. I agree with Stephanie G.s comment about it being COLD in some areas of the dining room.

I would be raving about this place a few years ago but their quality in food and service has been lacking a lot lately. Anyone who has been going to this location for as long as I have know how the food presentation use to be and even their amazing bread rolls have been suffering. It's a real shame but I continue to go back because I enjoy sitting outside that place and enjoying a meal with friends.

I don't know... I just wasn't impressed with this chain (or is it not a chain anymore)? They're supposedly well known for the salads. The rolls are good and soft. The food was alright - the capresa salad was good. The other salads my friends ordered didn't really impress. It was just a chain-type of food since you may be easily able to find something similar at another chain. The atmosphere makes me feel like I'm eating in some type of diner and some type of chain restaurant on the low-end of the scale (think Denny's, 15 years ago).

Best bread rolls!! The bread always comes out nice and warm with whipped butter. The crispy chicken salad with honey mustard dressing is delicious & a shareable portion. My bf & I alway share the broccoli cheese soup (my favorite not available Fridays) & a salad. All the portions on the menu are BIG & never disappoint. The Bleu cheese burger is also very good & shareable

If you want to drown face down in a bowl of lettuce, then you need to have a Beverly Hills Cafe Salad. They have like a gazillion salads and all are extremely generous portions. There are other things on the menu (burgers, sandwiches, pasta, blah, blah, blah), but salads are their thing. Been coming here for about 15 years and always leaf stuffed (haha, I made a funny). Seriously though, hit it up if you're in the area and are looking for someplace healthy with various options. I know there was another location in South Miami, but it closed a while back. Oh, and the bread is outta control! Word.

I will always be a HUGE fan of the Beverly Hills Cafe, no matter where it's located. In my humble opinion, they make the most delicious salads on the face of the earth. My only complaint about this location would be that it was RIDICULOUSLY cold in the dining area. Turn down the A/C people! PS Please, please, please bring the Beverly Hills Cafe back to South Miami, Coral Gables or Downtown Miami. WE MISS YOU!

I have eaten here a few times for a quick lunch with colleagues. We have never had any major problems with our meal, and the service is always friendly however quite slow. Why come here? The bread and salads. They have some of the best dinner rolls I have had, and the salads are delicious. I have tried some of their other entrees (sandwiches, hamburgers, pasta) and nothing else has enticed me to order it more than once. But the Waldorf salad or the Chicken Walnut salad is to die for. The prices are not cheap for a diner atmosphere (most entrees, salads included, are between $13-16), however the food is plentiful. My colleague and I always share a salad, and have never been charged an extra fee. They even split the salad into two plates for us, at no additional charge. The service is quite slow - if you have a strict lunch policy, you may want to ask for the bill once the food arrives. This will normally keep the lunch well under an hour. The wait normally happens after the food is delivered. Also, letting the waitress know that you are on a schedule will normally speed up the process. They have always been very friendly about it.

The few times I have been here has been mostly because my sister has forced me to come. The food I have had, which I can only remember the last meal, was obviously not very memerable. It wasn't really bad, but I have had better. The main reason I reviewed it so low is because I do not like this place inside. The decor, even though I know its on purpose, reminds me of the beginning of Three Men and a Baby. Its that cheesy late 80's pink and aqau decor.. Don't get me wrong, I love the 80's, but I just feel like the place is old in a bad way. THe times I have beem there its always empty. I dont remember the exact time or days, but the fact that its empty, makes it feel sad inside. Maybe I have just gone on off days. I haven't given up though. I am willing to try it again.

I've been coming to BHC for well over 20 years. My parents even had their first date here back in the 80's! This place has a home-y, yet, 90's vibe to it. Their food is delicious, always fresh. I definitely do not appreciate the 18% gratuity added, because some of their wait staff is very young and not professional at all.

Great salad place!! If you like salads this is your kind of place, they have so many different types of salads to choose from. I have never seen so many salads on one menu before. The times I have gone the service has been good. I usually have dinner here with my mom and we always get a soup and salad combo. The bread they serve before the meal is sooo good as well. This is also a nice place to sit outside in the cooler months or early in the morning when its not to hot. Many people walk to this restaurant from the surrounding areas with there dog and enjoy breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner sitting outside with there pooch. -Melissa Marie

Went there with the family to grab dinner. Everything on the table that wasn't a bread roll or salad was incredibly greasy. My wife ordered a grill chicken salad and it had a grill screw in it that she bit into. We told the waitress and she told the manager. You would have thought the manager would have had the common decency to walk over and see what had happened. Nope, just sent the waitress to take the salad away. The place looks very dated, the service was generally slow (even before the incident) and place was empty. I definitely will never go back again.

While I have enjoyed several lunchtime meals here for years my favorite thing to come to this restaurant for is the brunch. The food is fresh and always tasty, and the service is efficient and pleasant. I can't say I've tried one single thing on their brunch menu that I didnt like.. the portions are also very abundant. Along wit the fantastic food, the location is pretty convenient also.. right on a main drag and there is plenty of prking out front. The pricing is also a great treat. Just this morning my fiance and I had a lovely brunch here and the bill came to $20. Not bad huh? If you're in the are I would definitely urge you to stop inside... you wont regret it.

I've been coming here for years! Beverly Hills Cafe is the kind of place that everyone in town goes to. They have everything from Chicken Parm to Fajitas to really great salads! Your meal always starts off with warm rolls. They're so good, it's tough to only have just one. I've gone through phases where I've stuck with just one thing on the menu, then moved on to something else. My current obsession is their Tropical Salad. I am not a salad person, but this one is special! It has dried fruit, toasted coconut, mandarin oranges, chopped greens and a whole lot of other delicious ingredients topped with their Sweet Island Chutney dressing. It's like a party in your mouth! The salads are HUGE so 2 (even 3) can eat without a problem. The truth is, you really can't go wrong with anything you order here but save room for dessert! Their Tollhouse pie is life changing!!!

I always make an effort to go here whenever I'm in Miami. Fantastic Salads, fresh fish, huge portions, pretty good prices. My favorites are any of their salads topped with grilled salmon and a side of their home-made peanut dressing. All of their dressings are home made and everyone that I have tasted are great. The grilled dolphin is good too, as is the shrimp. I avoid the "sea crab" because it is the immitation crab, which I don't care for. The rolls are plentiful and one of the reasons why my friend comes back. Decor is ok, but that is not why I come here. If you can, sit outside and people-watch. 80s music plays in the background, which always leads to "Name that tune/artist" with our party. Service is pretty good and prices are reasonable for what you are getting. Very busy at lunch time and they do have delivery. I have been to the BHC in Plantation and it was not as good as this location. I would come back anytime to this restaurant.

We hadn't been here in a while due to really poor service the last time we went. That time we stopped in for lunch on a nice day and sat outside, only to be inundated with secondhand smoke from the table next to us. That's probably my only complaint. The inside isn't too quiet and the tables are close, but there's no smoke. Outside, even if the weather is beautiful, you're still opening up to some lung damage with your meal. This is the place for really fresh SALADS. I love'em. They're huge, so you might as well pack half of it to go right off the bat. I agree with other Yelpers, they've gotten a bit smaller than they used to be, but they're still plentiful! Their bread rolls and butter are delish and warm. My husband had a burger and was pleased with it, although it was a tad greasy and it made the bun soggy. Our server this time was Martin and he was spectacular. Good service goes a really long way! We'll be back next time the salad craving kicks in.

Love their Salads and Soups. And, you can take home the dressings :)

In a nutshell: Salads and Rolls are good and fresh but the other food is a little too greasy for me. Honey Mustard and Peanut dressing are my fav's.

An ode to older style restaurants. It feels right out of the eighties or nineties. The menu is huge and sometimes make it tough to decide. The bread is delicious and the portions are huge. Sometimes the staff is not good. They have some waiters that are amazing and some that are lackluster. The food is not five star cuisine, but definitely good for a quick diner type bite.

Food was good, waitress was pleasant and the rolls were delicious. Everything was fresh, clean and nicely cut. However, I should have ordered soup since it was freezing in there. I've been coming here for years and wish they would finally give it a 'face lift." A nice little remodeling would do this place some good.

It's an ok place. I think their quality has gone down over the years. I always order the Caesar salad. Or the Cobb salad my last time I noticed that the chicken portion of the Cobb salad was very small compared to what it used to be. I think they may be making their portions smaller, but prices the same. This is an almost $15 salad there should be more protein in it . The water needs to be asked for, the waiters don't just tell it. It's gone down, unfortunately.

Love this place for lunch. Their salads and soups are delicious. They have a great variety of salads to choose from and they are quite large if you would like to share them. The servers are very friendly adding to the family oriented ambiance.

I've been coming here for-e-ver. I'll make it easy for you: bread, soup, anything else and you're set for that day and leftovers the next. They also make some of their desserts in house. Salads are delicious and big enough to feed a small Ethiopian village. You can't go wrong with any soup, order them all. Lunch is packed but well worth it. I can't stop eating here, I crave it. Their menu is so large that you don't have to order the same thing for months.

Beverly Hills is near my house and I've been eating food from there for as long as I can remember. Seriously though, they had a fire when I was a kid and were closed for a while to renovate - my family was at a loss when figuring out what to eat because we used to get take out from Beverly Hills at least 3 times a week. The restaurant has quite the extensive menu. Their most popular items are probably the salads, which are huge. The soups are also pretty good, especially when eaten with their warm, delicious bread. A few of the other items I typically order are the Philly cheese steak, potato skins, and Beverly Hills pasta. I also enjoy the broccoli bites, cajun chicken Philly, and occasionally will order a chicken grill (chicken breast sandwich). For dessert, you must try the Tollhouse cookie pie, assuming you are a big chocolate fan. If not, their cookies are pretty delicious. Tip: If you're doing take-out and want a chocolate chip cookie, ask on the phone whether or not they have any so they can be saved. They go quickly and a lot of cookies can be sold during the 20 minute wait time to pick up your order!

This is nice little restaurant that offers a good variety of dishes, however my gf and I typically order their salads. I absolutely love their Buffalo Chicken Bleu Cheese Salad. It consists of greens topped off with fried chicken tenders, red onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, mandarin orange slices, croutons and bleu cheese of course. I tend to drench this delicious creation with their Sweet and sour Bleu cheese or creamy bleu cheese dressing. They also start your meal off with a couple of their rolls served with warm butter; they are great and act as a great sponge to soak up any left over salad dressing you may have. The service is solid, neither great nor horrible.

Not a bad place for lunch. Upon arriving I was a bit skeptical and a bit let down by the lack of friendly faces. Honestly I wasn't greeted by anyone or even acknowledged. I was very hungry or shall I say on the verge of Hangry. I thought this would surely end up as a 2 or 1 star review. The place is somewhere on the corner of 50s meets 80s. It's a little retro. But the music is great if you like 80s music. I was digging it :-) I agree with other reviews that the place needs a little touch up or a bit of tlc but if you can get past this, the salads are actually good. Where we sat it was also quite chilly so bring a little something to cover up if you're wearing short sleeves (I remember reading in other reviews that it was cold here). But anyhow, the salads. THEY ARE HUGE. I ordered the Chinese salad with fried chicken and it was delightful. It must've been approximately $12 and I could've easily shared this with someone. Honestly I think if you get a soup and a salad, two people can share this and actually have a light lunch at a very reasonable price.

We have been eating at Beverly Hills for a very long time. Can't imagine Miami Lakes with out this place. We love the blackened Dolphin Dinner, all the salads are great too. Give them a try you won't be disappointed.

The BHC is not gourmet, but it will certainly satisfy a particular tooth...especially if you are one who enjoys the sight of a large portion. I have been to this location several times and after having tried some various dishes my conclusion is it is a good place to grab a bite BUT you MUST learn how to order. Example: Do not expect the California shrimp pasta to come with avocados that are perfectly ripe (or ripe at all, for that matter) for such care to detail is a bit more demanding than this place offers. However, it is a creamy Alfredo-type dish, so if you're into that, don't hesitate. Also, they will gladly change the pasta shape for you to say linguini, penne, etc. Do NOT order the salmon if you are a big salmon fan. I have made this mistake twice and both times, they have broiled it to the point of being too dry. If you just want a simple salad and the heart of the dish (salmon) is staggeringly dull...your meal becomes a disappointment. It is much better to just avoid this altogether and go for any of their strengths...which I would say is any chicken dish or a burger for something more primitive. Chicken parmigiana (when I've seen others order it) always needs more mariana, so ask for extra. Their salads are varied and huge, dressing is always on the side if you're one who prefers that. I'd recommend cheese on the side too. Too many calories and not high enough quality to justify them. Also, excessive. You do not want flavor to be drowned by a single ingredient. The Asian chicken dish is really good...and they are very accommodating with switching out rice for lettuce or anything like that if you want low carb. Speaking of carbs, the bread and butter at the start of the meal is probably the best thing. Warm and sweet pillows with a whipped butter that dissolves in your mouth. Hard to resist. Stick to the basics. The simple food is what they do best. It's not fine dining, but it's pretty good.

We are having late lunch here today, small cafe in Miami lakes. Old, cozy place, very good service, amazing salad variety, as a matter of fact that's what my husband and I are having and they are very tasty and beautifully presented. Would definitely come back here

Ok place for a quick bite, salads are huge and fresh. Big issue with cleanliness. I ordered take away and as I waited I could not help but look at freezer behind cashier and small upper refrigerator. Mold all over upright freezer door ; and the fridge with sliding door very dirty. They should really invest in major clean up or better yet make a small investment in a new freezer and fridge. Hope the kitchen in the rear is cleaner.....3 stars is for the food only.

BHC has been around in Miami Lakes I believe before I was even born. In restaurant years, that it an eternity. BHC serves the local Miami Lakes community, as well as the lunch crowd from the many businesses in the area. You can never go wrong with ordering any salad here. The menu consists of over 10 different salads, which are mega portioned that can easily be shared. My favorite is the classic Crispy Chicken Cobb with a side of honey mustard. Not so light, but its the best salad I've ever had in all seriousness. BHC also offers sandwiches, wraps, burgers and pastas, along with entrees. But my go-to item is always the salad. The bread rolls and sweet butter is also a nice treat and quite addictive. If you are ever in the area around lunch time, I highly recommend coming to BHC. Consistent and comforting!

Thanks to my trusty Yelp app, I found this spot when I was trying to find somewhere to eat in the area with my best friend after work. WE WERE STARVING (Like always). I had no idea what I was going to eat here, I recalled eating here once or twice when I was much, much younger. All I could remember was that the bread was good, and yes. it. was. The bread rolls were very warm and soft. They bring them out with a dollop of butter and the butter just melted into the roll when I put it on it. So good! I ordered their Buffalo chicken strips with EXTRA blue cheese- I love blue cheese! The food didn't take long and it was pretty good. The blue cheese was so good though, I feel as though some places don't have good blue cheese or ranch, but theirs was great. The fries were seasoned fries and I really liked them too. However, next time I would like to get their Buffalo Chicken Salad or their Southwest Chicken Salad... they both sounded good, and I saw a couple receive their salads and THEY WERE HUGE! Definitely getting that next time. The service was great also. Our server was really sweet, not talkative at all, but, brought out everything promptly.

From the the fresh bread to the tea, this place is consistent, fresh, and a throwback. Beverly Hills looks like it is fresh out of the 80's, from their music to their decor. Any chicken plate is fabulous, their salads are great (the sweet island chutney dressing is PERFECT), and the soups are robust and rich in flavor. Service can be a hit or miss, but Beverly Hills is the perfect lunch spot.

The place smells like a retirement center. The food has very low seasoning such as the fried chicken sandwich and cheese steak. I also asked for extra cheese on the Philly cheesesteak sandwich but it did not have extra cheese. The broccoli and cheese soup tasted good however it had some hard chunks in it. When it was time to pay, no one was around! The complimentary rolls were good. Nothing wow'd us so will not be back. Not worth the price.

First time coming here for dinner and I can't complain the food was delicious!!! I ordered a chicken perm sandwich it was bigger the I expected definitely worth the wait and the price, even though they weren't that busy you can tell that they take their time to make the food. The bread rolls here are amazing very addictive as some of the other reviewers have put down as well. I love the old time feel of this place takes you back to when we had diners around. I plan to come here again and try some of their other dishes, saw chicken Cesar salad that looked wonderful.

Carb addicts everywhere unite!!! There is nothing like their freshly baked bread!!! Trust me. Second best item: the cream of broccoli! So yes, you can enjoy vegetables. It's loaded with chunks of broccoli and cheese..yummy cheese. So, if after you've gorged on bread and the cream of broccoli you have room, try anything on the menu. I dare you to finish it. The portions are HUGE. As a salad lover, I suggest all of them. Their home made dressing makes you want to bathe in cause it's sooooo good!

Great food. The dolphin fingers were disappointing but the other dishes were delishes. The desserts are huge. Prices are okay. More expensive than anywhere else with a diner atmosphere but the food and service are 100 times better too. 9/10 experience. I'll be coming back to try more plates.

Ana F.
The bread rolls you receive upon arrival are delicious! I usually order the same thing, the Crispy Chicken Salad which i love. All the salads are huge, 2 or even 3 people can eat from just one or you can just take the rest home and they even give you extra dressing! I come back here at least once a month.

James P.
This place is good enough to come back every once in a while. The food isn't bad but this very last time I tried a spinach salad and added mahi. I requested the spicy vinaigrette dressing, which was very good. I did enjoy the salad, but don't necessary believe I should pay practically $20 for a salad. The complimentary bread is great, they're brought out warm and with some butter to add. I do have to say the Spinach bites are definitely a must with the honey mustard dip! I will be back but definitely won't be my first choice considering the amount of bang for your buck.

Great salads I recommend the crispy chicken cobb salad! In addition, every salad is huge and can be shared with a friend. Okay selection of beers, but again, the place is known for their salads. I would definitely return for some more eats!

The buns are awesome! I don't like how they chop their salad so I ask for it sliced. They always do it. It's a bit pricey for the food. Most of the waiters are young kids. Not really great service. It's an ok place. I really don't love it much, but my husband likes their salads so I come with him all the time.

Beverly Hills is less than a minute from where I live and I have gone to eat there 5-6 times and have ordered take-out about the same amount of times in the past year. Although their service is good and the servers are attentive, the food is hit or miss. Their salads are great, they're definitely their strong-point. I always order the same thing - their Fajita Salad with steak which comes in a crispy taco shell with grilled peppers, onions, cheese, sour cream, guacamole, and salsa. It's pretty delicious. However, any time I have deviated from their salads, I have left disappointed with the food. I've tried their skirt steak topped with mushrooms, onions, and cheese and the steak was not cooked well. We ordered it medium and it was overcooked and rubbery. The side of vegetables that it came with were practically flavorless and required a ton of salt to even be able to eat. If you eat here, stick with their salads and their bread and you won't be disappointed.

Huge fan of BHC! I've been eating here for nearly 28 years. Oh wait, I'm only 27 so how'd that happen? Forget the Math! The menu selections are unbelievable. It doesn't matter what you're in the mood for, you'll find a menu item to satisfy your craving. They have short healthy side menu with several good selections, the alternative casserole is excellent-rice cooked perfectly and salmon, yes salmon, is perfect. They also have over 30 salads to pick from, I've had at least 8 and all were good and oversized portions. They have a burger section, a Mexican section (Mexican pizza and quesadillas are great), a pasta section and more. Ribs and steak, which I never expect to be good at a restaurant unless it's the specialty, are very good here. Ribs are fall off the bone. Service is also exceptional. Quick and with a smile and typically, you will find the owner on site. Oh, and rarely a wait! We're surprised this place hasn't gotten more attention. Maybe I shouldn't post this. Lol!

Ordered the Santa Fa Chicken salad. It was huge and well worth the price. Only issue I had was the section we were in was too busy for the one waitress that was working. Only had one glass of water the entire time there. Also I'm not familiar with why people like them but I was turned off by the fact Dolphin was on the menu. Overall I agree that the decor is dated but the food was outstanding. Would definitely go again in a heartbeat.

This place has been here for years. I've come to eat lunch with my mom a few times when I was younger and their soups are great! I came by myself for a quick lunch after a meeting and it seems the service here has gotten pretty bad.. I decided to sit outside because the weather was beautiful but I quickly regretted my decision when I had to wait 20 minutes for someone to finally attend me at my table. I finally got my bread and water. The bread is delicious, the food is in general. I got the Southwest Salad and it was pretty good! I loved the dressing but like I said.. service is slow and no one really seems happy to be there.

Jennette P.
Best bread rolls!! The bread always comes out nice and warm with whipped butter. The crispy chicken salad with honey mustard dressing is delicious & a shareable portion. My bf & I alway share the broccoli cheese soup (my favorite not available Fridays) & a salad. All the portions on the menu are BIG & never disappoint. The Bleu cheese burger is also very good & shareable

If you want to drown face down in a bowl of lettuce, then you need to have a Beverly Hills Cafe Salad. They have like a gazillion salads and all are extremely generous portions. There are other things on the menu (burgers, sandwiches, pasta, blah, blah, blah), but salads are their thing. Been coming here for about 15 years and always leaf stuffed (haha, I made a funny). Seriously though, hit it up if you're in the area and are looking for someplace healthy with various options. I know there was another location in South Miami, but it closed a while back. Oh, and the bread is outta control! Word.

I will always be a HUGE fan of the Beverly Hills Cafe, no matter where it's located. In my humble opinion, they make the most delicious salads on the face of the earth. My only complaint about this location would be that it was RIDICULOUSLY cold in the dining area. Turn down the A/C people! PS Please, please, please bring the Beverly Hills Cafe back to South Miami, Coral Gables or Downtown Miami. WE MISS YOU!

While the decor and menu haven't changed since the 80s, I can't quite say the same for the quality of the food (or maybe my childhood memories of the burgers and salads are better than the current offerings). Portions are generous, the staff are ok - nothing memorable one way or another. It's better than dining off the side of the Turnpike, but not really a place for a particularly great meal and night out with friends.

Beverly Hills Cafe. It's a shame that it closed down in the Sunset Place area. Their Beverly Hills pasta is amazing, so is their bread. They knock it out of the park with their salads and have the best ranch dressing I ever had (it's homemade!) Thank heavens that there is still one in Miami Lakes. I will be back.

While I have enjoyed several lunchtime meals here for years my favorite thing to come to this restaurant for is the brunch. The food is fresh and always tasty, and the service is efficient and pleasant. I can't say I've tried one single thing on their brunch menu that I didnt like.. the portions are also very abundant. Along wit the fantastic food, the location is pretty convenient also.. right on a main drag and there is plenty of prking out front. The pricing is also a great treat. Just this morning my fiance and I had a lovely brunch here and the bill came to $20. Not bad huh? If you're in the are I would definitely urge you to stop inside... you wont regret it.

If I am going to be in Miami Lakes during lunch hours, I am coming here. The food is fresh and very healthy. If you are watching what you eat, this is the place to come. The plates are large, but I promise you that the calories aren't... They provide for a very nutrient dense meal when you order the salads and if you are watching your carbs, trust me they have something for you too. The staff is good, sometimes a little slow, but that's ok.

I have eaten here a few times for a quick lunch with colleagues. We have never had any major problems with our meal, and the service is always friendly however quite slow. Why come here? The bread and salads. They have some of the best dinner rolls I have had, and the salads are delicious. I have tried some of their other entrees (sandwiches, hamburgers, pasta) and nothing else has enticed me to order it more than once. But the Waldorf salad or the Chicken Walnut salad is to die for. The prices are not cheap for a diner atmosphere (most entrees, salads included, are between $13-16), however the food is plentiful. My colleague and I always share a salad, and have never been charged an extra fee. They even split the salad into two plates for us, at no additional charge. The service is quite slow - if you have a strict lunch policy, you may want to ask for the bill once the food arrives. This will normally keep the lunch well under an hour. The wait normally happens after the food is delivered. Also, letting the waitress know that you are on a schedule will normally speed up the process. They have always been very friendly about it.

The few times I have been here has been mostly because my sister has forced me to come. The food I have had, which I can only remember the last meal, was obviously not very memerable. It wasn't really bad, but I have had better. The main reason I reviewed it so low is because I do not like this place inside. The decor, even though I know its on purpose, reminds me of the beginning of Three Men and a Baby. Its that cheesy late 80's pink and aqau decor.. Don't get me wrong, I love the 80's, but I just feel like the place is old in a bad way. THe times I have beem there its always empty. I dont remember the exact time or days, but the fact that its empty, makes it feel sad inside. Maybe I have just gone on off days. I haven't given up though. I am willing to try it again.

I've been coming here for years! Beverly Hills Cafe is the kind of place that everyone in town goes to. They have everything from Chicken Parm to Fajitas to really great salads! Your meal always starts off with warm rolls. They're so good, it's tough to only have just one. I've gone through phases where I've stuck with just one thing on the menu, then moved on to something else. My current obsession is their Tropical Salad. I am not a salad person, but this one is special! It has dried fruit, toasted coconut, mandarin oranges, chopped greens and a whole lot of other delicious ingredients topped with their Sweet Island Chutney dressing. It's like a party in your mouth! The salads are HUGE so 2 (even 3) can eat without a problem. The truth is, you really can't go wrong with anything you order here but save room for dessert! Their Tollhouse pie is life changing!!!

My experience here hasn't been so good the past couple of times. The service was super slow and the sad part was that the restaurant wasn't even full; our waitress had only one table. There's really no excuse for slow service when the place is that empty. However, I have been coming here for years and my overall experience has been pretty good. They do deliver which is always an added bonus. My favorite meal is the philly cheesestake. Their teriyaki steak and yellow rice is also delicious. It's a good place to go to for a quick lunch. They also have a lot of health options so if you're on a diet this would be a good place to try out.

B'Hills has a huge selection of salads, nice burgers and sandwiches. It's great for lunch as there are many selections and you don't have much excuse to be terribly picky. But I would not go to this place for dinner. It kind of looks like your grand mamas dining room, which is fine but not for dinner. No offence G'Maa... Waiters are good, they have good days and off days depends who you get and what you ask for...but again this is a great place for lunch. The food is fresh, it comes out fast, and reasonably priced. I agree with Stephanie G.s comment about it being COLD in some areas of the dining room.

I would be raving about this place a few years ago but their quality in food and service has been lacking a lot lately. Anyone who has been going to this location for as long as I have know how the food presentation use to be and even their amazing bread rolls have been suffering. It's a real shame but I continue to go back because I enjoy sitting outside that place and enjoying a meal with friends.

I don't know... I just wasn't impressed with this chain (or is it not a chain anymore)? They're supposedly well known for the salads. The rolls are good and soft. The food was alright - the capresa salad was good. The other salads my friends ordered didn't really impress. It was just a chain-type of food since you may be easily able to find something similar at another chain. The atmosphere makes me feel like I'm eating in some type of diner and some type of chain restaurant on the low-end of the scale (think Denny's, 15 years ago).

I should have had a salad based on the reviews. I was excited to see their extensive menu, and decided to go with a sandwich instead of one of their large, plentiful salads. The bread was stale and dry and greasy. How's that possible? The tomatoes were not even ripe and were flavorless. Not to mention one of the slices was the end piece with the stem hole on it. I hate that. I did have a side salad and that was very good. Someone at our table had a fish sandwich and complained that the fish was chewy and dry, overcooked and not that fresh. Given that Miami is not very vegan friendly to begin with, I have to say this is a good place for vegan options, but you'll be limited to salad and sandwiches, and maybe soups on somedays. They also offered a veg burger, but not sure if it was vegan or not. The service was pretty good in the beginning, but once we got our food the waiter kind of disappeared until we asked for the check.

I've been coming to BHC for well over 20 years. My parents even had their first date here back in the 80's! This place has a home-y, yet, 90's vibe to it. Their food is delicious, always fresh. I definitely do not appreciate the 18% gratuity added, because some of their wait staff is very young and not professional at all.

Fernando and Melissa H.
Great salad place!! If you like salads this is your kind of place, they have so many different types of salads to choose from. I have never seen so many salads on one menu before. The times I have gone the service has been good. I usually have dinner here with my mom and we always get a soup and salad combo. The bread they serve before the meal is sooo good as well. This is also a nice place to sit outside in the cooler months or early in the morning when its not to hot. Many people walk to this restaurant from the surrounding areas with there dog and enjoy breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner sitting outside with there pooch. -Melissa Marie

Have eaten here two times and tried about 10 different dishes and there is not ONE that I dislike, everything seems to taste better than the last thing you eat. The place is not fancy, it kind of reminds me of Denny's but the food speaks for itself.

Went there with the family to grab dinner. Everything on the table that wasn't a bread roll or salad was incredibly greasy. My wife ordered a grill chicken salad and it had a grill screw in it that she bit into. We told the waitress and she told the manager. You would have thought the manager would have had the common decency to walk over and see what had happened. Nope, just sent the waitress to take the salad away. The place looks very dated, the service was generally slow (even before the incident) and place was empty. I definitely will never go back again.

I always make an effort to go here whenever I'm in Miami. Fantastic Salads, fresh fish, huge portions, pretty good prices. My favorites are any of their salads topped with grilled salmon and a side of their home-made peanut dressing. All of their dressings are home made and everyone that I have tasted are great. The grilled dolphin is good too, as is the shrimp. I avoid the "sea crab" because it is the immitation crab, which I don't care for. The rolls are plentiful and one of the reasons why my friend comes back. Decor is ok, but that is not why I come here. If you can, sit outside and people-watch. 80s music plays in the background, which always leads to "Name that tune/artist" with our party. Service is pretty good and prices are reasonable for what you are getting. Very busy at lunch time and they do have delivery. I have been to the BHC in Plantation and it was not as good as this location. I would come back anytime to this restaurant.

We hadn't been here in a while due to really poor service the last time we went. That time we stopped in for lunch on a nice day and sat outside, only to be inundated with secondhand smoke from the table next to us. That's probably my only complaint. The inside isn't too quiet and the tables are close, but there's no smoke. Outside, even if the weather is beautiful, you're still opening up to some lung damage with your meal. This is the place for really fresh SALADS. I love'em. They're huge, so you might as well pack half of it to go right off the bat. I agree with other Yelpers, they've gotten a bit smaller than they used to be, but they're still plentiful! Their bread rolls and butter are delish and warm. My husband had a burger and was pleased with it, although it was a tad greasy and it made the bun soggy. Our server this time was Martin and he was spectacular. Good service goes a really long way! We'll be back next time the salad craving kicks in.

In a nutshell: Salads and Rolls are good and fresh but the other food is a little too greasy for me. Honey Mustard and Peanut dressing are my fav's.

This is one of those places that deserves to go out of business but doesn't ... I have lived in Miami Lakes for years and have eaten here at least 40 times.... I can say this with some certainty: their soup of the day is ALWAYS broccoli soup. Their salads are virtually all the same (and taste the same)... Hot plate food is microwaved and bland. So why do I go? I just don't know man...... convenience, to fill my stomach quick, the nice teenage waitresses they hire as servers, the bread (the dinner rolls are very good and hot).... This place has a diner atmosphere and several TV's on the wall. Make sure you arrive with your complete party in tow or else they will make you stand there and wait until your companions arrive. This seems to be a hard and fast rule (even if the place is empty). That's really all I can say.

The Salads at the BH are of the best in the city. The serve a very generous portion of salads made of the freshest ingredients. Also the make sure you don't run out of dressing as is comes to the table in a little coffee creamer type container. Moving on to the rolls, they are to die for, always served steaming hot with butter on the side.

We have been eating at Beverly Hills for a very long time. Can't imagine Miami Lakes with out this place. We love the blackened Dolphin Dinner, all the salads are great too. Give them a try you won't be disappointed.

Beverly Hills is less than a minute from where I live and I have gone to eat there 5-6 times and have ordered take-out about the same amount of times in the past year. Although their service is good and the servers are attentive, the food is hit or miss. Their salads are great, they're definitely their strong-point. I always order the same thing - their Fajita Salad with steak which comes in a crispy taco shell with grilled peppers, onions, cheese, sour cream, guacamole, and salsa. It's pretty delicious. However, any time I have deviated from their salads, I have left disappointed with the food. I've tried their skirt steak topped with mushrooms, onions, and cheese and the steak was not cooked well. We ordered it medium and it was overcooked and rubbery. The side of vegetables that it came with were practically flavorless and required a ton of salt to even be able to eat. If you eat here, stick with their salads and their bread and you won't be disappointed.

Huge fan of BHC! I've been eating here for nearly 28 years. Oh wait, I'm only 27 so how'd that happen? Forget the Math! The menu selections are unbelievable. It doesn't matter what you're in the mood for, you'll find a menu item to satisfy your craving. They have short healthy side menu with several good selections, the alternative casserole is excellent-rice cooked perfectly and salmon, yes salmon, is perfect. They also have over 30 salads to pick from, I've had at least 8 and all were good and oversized portions. They have a burger section, a Mexican section (Mexican pizza and quesadillas are great), a pasta section and more. Ribs and steak, which I never expect to be good at a restaurant unless it's the specialty, are very good here. Ribs are fall off the bone. Service is also exceptional. Quick and with a smile and typically, you will find the owner on site. Oh, and rarely a wait! We're surprised this place hasn't gotten more attention. Maybe I shouldn't post this. Lol!

Ordered the Santa Fa Chicken salad. It was huge and well worth the price. Only issue I had was the section we were in was too busy for the one waitress that was working. Only had one glass of water the entire time there. Also I'm not familiar with why people like them but I was turned off by the fact Dolphin was on the menu. Overall I agree that the decor is dated but the food was outstanding. Would definitely go again in a heartbeat.

This place has been here for years. I've come to eat lunch with my mom a few times when I was younger and their soups are great! I came by myself for a quick lunch after a meeting and it seems the service here has gotten pretty bad.. I decided to sit outside because the weather was beautiful but I quickly regretted my decision when I had to wait 20 minutes for someone to finally attend me at my table. I finally got my bread and water. The bread is delicious, the food is in general. I got the Southwest Salad and it was pretty good! I loved the dressing but like I said.. service is slow and no one really seems happy to be there.

An ode to older style restaurants. It feels right out of the eighties or nineties. The menu is huge and sometimes make it tough to decide. The bread is delicious and the portions are huge. Sometimes the staff is not good. They have some waiters that are amazing and some that are lackluster. The food is not five star cuisine, but definitely good for a quick diner type bite.

Maritza S.
It's an ok place. I think their quality has gone down over the years. I always order the Caesar salad. Or the Cobb salad my last time I noticed that the chicken portion of the Cobb salad was very small compared to what it used to be. I think they may be making their portions smaller, but prices the same. This is an almost $15 salad there should be more protein in it . The water needs to be asked for, the waiters don't just tell it. It's gone down, unfortunately.

The BHC is not gourmet, but it will certainly satisfy a particular tooth...especially if you are one who enjoys the sight of a large portion. I have been to this location several times and after having tried some various dishes my conclusion is it is a good place to grab a bite BUT you MUST learn how to order. Example: Do not expect the California shrimp pasta to come with avocados that are perfectly ripe (or ripe at all, for that matter) for such care to detail is a bit more demanding than this place offers. However, it is a creamy Alfredo-type dish, so if you're into that, don't hesitate. Also, they will gladly change the pasta shape for you to say linguini, penne, etc. Do NOT order the salmon if you are a big salmon fan. I have made this mistake twice and both times, they have broiled it to the point of being too dry. If you just want a simple salad and the heart of the dish (salmon) is staggeringly dull...your meal becomes a disappointment. It is much better to just avoid this altogether and go for any of their strengths...which I would say is any chicken dish or a burger for something more primitive. Chicken parmigiana (when I've seen others order it) always needs more mariana, so ask for extra. Their salads are varied and huge, dressing is always on the side if you're one who prefers that. I'd recommend cheese on the side too. Too many calories and not high enough quality to justify them. Also, excessive. You do not want flavor to be drowned by a single ingredient. The Asian chicken dish is really good...and they are very accommodating with switching out rice for lettuce or anything like that if you want low carb. Speaking of carbs, the bread and butter at the start of the meal is probably the best thing. Warm and sweet pillows with a whipped butter that dissolves in your mouth. Hard to resist. Stick to the basics. The simple food is what they do best. It's not fine dining, but it's pretty good.

Ok place for a quick bite, salads are huge and fresh. Big issue with cleanliness. I ordered take away and as I waited I could not help but look at freezer behind cashier and small upper refrigerator. Mold all over upright freezer door ; and the fridge with sliding door very dirty. They should really invest in major clean up or better yet make a small investment in a new freezer and fridge. Hope the kitchen in the rear is cleaner.....3 stars is for the food only.

BHC has been around in Miami Lakes I believe before I was even born. In restaurant years, that it an eternity. BHC serves the local Miami Lakes community, as well as the lunch crowd from the many businesses in the area. You can never go wrong with ordering any salad here. The menu consists of over 10 different salads, which are mega portioned that can easily be shared. My favorite is the classic Crispy Chicken Cobb with a side of honey mustard. Not so light, but its the best salad I've ever had in all seriousness. BHC also offers sandwiches, wraps, burgers and pastas, along with entrees. But my go-to item is always the salad. The bread rolls and sweet butter is also a nice treat and quite addictive. If you are ever in the area around lunch time, I highly recommend coming to BHC. Consistent and comforting!

Food was good, waitress was pleasant and the rolls were delicious. Everything was fresh, clean and nicely cut. However, I should have ordered soup since it was freezing in there. I've been coming here for years and wish they would finally give it a 'face lift." A nice little remodeling would do this place some good.

This has been a staple in the heart of Miami Lakes its pretty decent has a bunch of american food from mouthwatering burgers with these awesome fries, a whole menu by itself of salads and not boring ones and a good potato soup, also have mexican, pizzas, sandwiches I have stir frys which their beverly hills stir fry is amazing this is what I order and its huge. The sweet rolls they give u are soooo good too, it cost the most 13.00 overall its good, fast, and not so pricey.

I've been coming here for-e-ver. I'll make it easy for you: bread, soup, anything else and you're set for that day and leftovers the next. They also make some of their desserts in house. Salads are delicious and big enough to feed a small Ethiopian village. You can't go wrong with any soup, order them all. Lunch is packed but well worth it. I can't stop eating here, I crave it. Their menu is so large that you don't have to order the same thing for months.

This place is good enough to come back every once in a while. The food isn't bad but this very last time I tried a spinach salad and added mahi. I requested the spicy vinaigrette dressing, which was very good. I did enjoy the salad, but don't necessary believe I should pay practically $20 for a salad. The complimentary bread is great, they're brought out warm and with some butter to add. I do have to say the Spinach bites are definitely a must with the honey mustard dip! I will be back but definitely won't be my first choice considering the amount of bang for your buck.

Beverly Hills is near my house and I've been eating food from there for as long as I can remember. Seriously though, they had a fire when I was a kid and were closed for a while to renovate - my family was at a loss when figuring out what to eat because we used to get take out from Beverly Hills at least 3 times a week. The restaurant has quite the extensive menu. Their most popular items are probably the salads, which are huge. The soups are also pretty good, especially when eaten with their warm, delicious bread. A few of the other items I typically order are the Philly cheese steak, potato skins, and Beverly Hills pasta. I also enjoy the broccoli bites, cajun chicken Philly, and occasionally will order a chicken grill (chicken breast sandwich). For dessert, you must try the Tollhouse cookie pie, assuming you are a big chocolate fan. If not, their cookies are pretty delicious. Tip: If you're doing take-out and want a chocolate chip cookie, ask on the phone whether or not they have any so they can be saved. They go quickly and a lot of cookies can be sold during the 20 minute wait time to pick up your order!

This is nice little restaurant that offers a good variety of dishes, however my gf and I typically order their salads. I absolutely love their Buffalo Chicken Bleu Cheese Salad. It consists of greens topped off with fried chicken tenders, red onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, mandarin orange slices, croutons and bleu cheese of course. I tend to drench this delicious creation with their Sweet and sour Bleu cheese or creamy bleu cheese dressing. They also start your meal off with a couple of their rolls served with warm butter; they are great and act as a great sponge to soak up any left over salad dressing you may have. The service is solid, neither great nor horrible.

Not a bad place for lunch. Upon arriving I was a bit skeptical and a bit let down by the lack of friendly faces. Honestly I wasn't greeted by anyone or even acknowledged. I was very hungry or shall I say on the verge of Hangry. I thought this would surely end up as a 2 or 1 star review. The place is somewhere on the corner of 50s meets 80s. It's a little retro. But the music is great if you like 80s music. I was digging it :-) I agree with other reviews that the place needs a little touch up or a bit of tlc but if you can get past this, the salads are actually good. Where we sat it was also quite chilly so bring a little something to cover up if you're wearing short sleeves (I remember reading in other reviews that it was cold here). But anyhow, the salads. THEY ARE HUGE. I ordered the Chinese salad with fried chicken and it was delightful. It must've been approximately $12 and I could've easily shared this with someone. Honestly I think if you get a soup and a salad, two people can share this and actually have a light lunch at a very reasonable price.

The bread rolls you receive upon arrival are delicious! I usually order the same thing, the Crispy Chicken Salad which i love. All the salads are huge, 2 or even 3 people can eat from just one or you can just take the rest home and they even give you extra dressing! I come back here at least once a month.

The buns are awesome! I don't like how they chop their salad so I ask for it sliced. They always do it. It's a bit pricey for the food. Most of the waiters are young kids. Not really great service. It's an ok place. I really don't love it much, but my husband likes their salads so I come with him all the time.

Best bread rolls!! The bread always comes out nice and warm with whipped butter. The crispy chicken salad with honey mustard dressing is delicious & a shareable portion. My bf & I alway share the broccoli cheese soup (my favorite not available Fridays) & a salad. All the portions on the menu are BIG & never disappoint. The Bleu cheese burger is also very good & shareable

If you want to drown face down in a bowl of lettuce, then you need to have a Beverly Hills Cafe Salad. They have like a gazillion salads and all are extremely generous portions. There are other things on the menu (burgers, sandwiches, pasta, blah, blah, blah), but salads are their thing. Been coming here for about 15 years and always leaf stuffed (haha, I made a funny). Seriously though, hit it up if you're in the area and are looking for someplace healthy with various options. I know there was another location in South Miami, but it closed a while back. Oh, and the bread is outta control! Word.

I will always be a HUGE fan of the Beverly Hills Cafe, no matter where it's located. In my humble opinion, they make the most delicious salads on the face of the earth. My only complaint about this location would be that it was RIDICULOUSLY cold in the dining area. Turn down the A/C people! PS Please, please, please bring the Beverly Hills Cafe back to South Miami, Coral Gables or Downtown Miami. WE MISS YOU!

While the decor and menu haven't changed since the 80s, I can't quite say the same for the quality of the food (or maybe my childhood memories of the burgers and salads are better than the current offerings). Portions are generous, the staff are ok - nothing memorable one way or another. It's better than dining off the side of the Turnpike, but not really a place for a particularly great meal and night out with friends.

Beverly Hills Cafe. It's a shame that it closed down in the Sunset Place area. Their Beverly Hills pasta is amazing, so is their bread. They knock it out of the park with their salads and have the best ranch dressing I ever had (it's homemade!) Thank heavens that there is still one in Miami Lakes. I will be back.

Thanks to my trusty Yelp app, I found this spot when I was trying to find somewhere to eat in the area with my best friend after work. WE WERE STARVING (Like always). I had no idea what I was going to eat here, I recalled eating here once or twice when I was much, much younger. All I could remember was that the bread was good, and yes. it. was. The bread rolls were very warm and soft. They bring them out with a dollop of butter and the butter just melted into the roll when I put it on it. So good! I ordered their Buffalo chicken strips with EXTRA blue cheese- I love blue cheese! The food didn't take long and it was pretty good. The blue cheese was so good though, I feel as though some places don't have good blue cheese or ranch, but theirs was great. The fries were seasoned fries and I really liked them too. However, next time I would like to get their Buffalo Chicken Salad or their Southwest Chicken Salad... they both sounded good, and I saw a couple receive their salads and THEY WERE HUGE! Definitely getting that next time. The service was great also. Our server was really sweet, not talkative at all, but, brought out everything promptly.

From the the fresh bread to the tea, this place is consistent, fresh, and a throwback. Beverly Hills looks like it is fresh out of the 80's, from their music to their decor. Any chicken plate is fabulous, their salads are great (the sweet island chutney dressing is PERFECT), and the soups are robust and rich in flavor. Service can be a hit or miss, but Beverly Hills is the perfect lunch spot.

The place smells like a retirement center. The food has very low seasoning such as the fried chicken sandwich and cheese steak. I also asked for extra cheese on the Philly cheesesteak sandwich but it did not have extra cheese. The broccoli and cheese soup tasted good however it had some hard chunks in it. When it was time to pay, no one was around! The complimentary rolls were good. Nothing wow'd us so will not be back. Not worth the price.

First time coming here for dinner and I can't complain the food was delicious!!! I ordered a chicken perm sandwich it was bigger the I expected definitely worth the wait and the price, even though they weren't that busy you can tell that they take their time to make the food. The bread rolls here are amazing very addictive as some of the other reviewers have put down as well. I love the old time feel of this place takes you back to when we had diners around. I plan to come here again and try some of their other dishes, saw chicken Cesar salad that looked wonderful.

Carb addicts everywhere unite!!! There is nothing like their freshly baked bread!!! Trust me. Second best item: the cream of broccoli! So yes, you can enjoy vegetables. It's loaded with chunks of broccoli and cheese..yummy cheese. So, if after you've gorged on bread and the cream of broccoli you have room, try anything on the menu. I dare you to finish it. The portions are HUGE. As a salad lover, I suggest all of them. Their home made dressing makes you want to bathe in cause it's sooooo good!

If I am going to be in Miami Lakes during lunch hours, I am coming here. The food is fresh and very healthy. If you are watching what you eat, this is the place to come. The plates are large, but I promise you that the calories aren't... They provide for a very nutrient dense meal when you order the salads and if you are watching your carbs, trust me they have something for you too. The staff is good, sometimes a little slow, but that's ok.

While I have enjoyed several lunchtime meals here for years my favorite thing to come to this restaurant for is the brunch. The food is fresh and always tasty, and the service is efficient and pleasant. I can't say I've tried one single thing on their brunch menu that I didnt like.. the portions are also very abundant. Along wit the fantastic food, the location is pretty convenient also.. right on a main drag and there is plenty of prking out front. The pricing is also a great treat. Just this morning my fiance and I had a lovely brunch here and the bill came to $20. Not bad huh? If you're in the are I would definitely urge you to stop inside... you wont regret it.

I should have had a salad based on the reviews. I was excited to see their extensive menu, and decided to go with a sandwich instead of one of their large, plentiful salads. The bread was stale and dry and greasy. How's that possible? The tomatoes were not even ripe and were flavorless. Not to mention one of the slices was the end piece with the stem hole on it. I hate that. I did have a side salad and that was very good. Someone at our table had a fish sandwich and complained that the fish was chewy and dry, overcooked and not that fresh. Given that Miami is not very vegan friendly to begin with, I have to say this is a good place for vegan options, but you'll be limited to salad and sandwiches, and maybe soups on somedays. They also offered a veg burger, but not sure if it was vegan or not. The service was pretty good in the beginning, but once we got our food the waiter kind of disappeared until we asked for the check.

I've been coming to BHC for well over 20 years. My parents even had their first date here back in the 80's! This place has a home-y, yet, 90's vibe to it. Their food is delicious, always fresh. I definitely do not appreciate the 18% gratuity added, because some of their wait staff is very young and not professional at all.

Fernando and Melissa H.
Great salad place!! If you like salads this is your kind of place, they have so many different types of salads to choose from. I have never seen so many salads on one menu before. The times I have gone the service has been good. I usually have dinner here with my mom and we always get a soup and salad combo. The bread they serve before the meal is sooo good as well. This is also a nice place to sit outside in the cooler months or early in the morning when its not to hot. Many people walk to this restaurant from the surrounding areas with there dog and enjoy breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner sitting outside with there pooch. -Melissa Marie

I've been coming here for years! Beverly Hills Cafe is the kind of place that everyone in town goes to. They have everything from Chicken Parm to Fajitas to really great salads! Your meal always starts off with warm rolls. They're so good, it's tough to only have just one. I've gone through phases where I've stuck with just one thing on the menu, then moved on to something else. My current obsession is their Tropical Salad. I am not a salad person, but this one is special! It has dried fruit, toasted coconut, mandarin oranges, chopped greens and a whole lot of other delicious ingredients topped with their Sweet Island Chutney dressing. It's like a party in your mouth! The salads are HUGE so 2 (even 3) can eat without a problem. The truth is, you really can't go wrong with anything you order here but save room for dessert! Their Tollhouse pie is life changing!!!

Janelle L.
My experience here hasn't been so good the past couple of times. The service was super slow and the sad part was that the restaurant wasn't even full; our waitress had only one table. There's really no excuse for slow service when the place is that empty. However, I have been coming here for years and my overall experience has been pretty good. They do deliver which is always an added bonus. My favorite meal is the philly cheesestake. Their teriyaki steak and yellow rice is also delicious. It's a good place to go to for a quick lunch. They also have a lot of health options so if you're on a diet this would be a good place to try out.

I have eaten here a few times for a quick lunch with colleagues. We have never had any major problems with our meal, and the service is always friendly however quite slow. Why come here? The bread and salads. They have some of the best dinner rolls I have had, and the salads are delicious. I have tried some of their other entrees (sandwiches, hamburgers, pasta) and nothing else has enticed me to order it more than once. But the Waldorf salad or the Chicken Walnut salad is to die for. The prices are not cheap for a diner atmosphere (most entrees, salads included, are between $13-16), however the food is plentiful. My colleague and I always share a salad, and have never been charged an extra fee. They even split the salad into two plates for us, at no additional charge. The service is quite slow - if you have a strict lunch policy, you may want to ask for the bill once the food arrives. This will normally keep the lunch well under an hour. The wait normally happens after the food is delivered. Also, letting the waitress know that you are on a schedule will normally speed up the process. They have always been very friendly about it.

The few times I have been here has been mostly because my sister has forced me to come. The food I have had, which I can only remember the last meal, was obviously not very memerable. It wasn't really bad, but I have had better. The main reason I reviewed it so low is because I do not like this place inside. The decor, even though I know its on purpose, reminds me of the beginning of Three Men and a Baby. Its that cheesy late 80's pink and aqau decor.. Don't get me wrong, I love the 80's, but I just feel like the place is old in a bad way. THe times I have beem there its always empty. I dont remember the exact time or days, but the fact that its empty, makes it feel sad inside. Maybe I have just gone on off days. I haven't given up though. I am willing to try it again.

Have eaten here two times and tried about 10 different dishes and there is not ONE that I dislike, everything seems to taste better than the last thing you eat. The place is not fancy, it kind of reminds me of Denny's but the food speaks for itself.

Went there with the family to grab dinner. Everything on the table that wasn't a bread roll or salad was incredibly greasy. My wife ordered a grill chicken salad and it had a grill screw in it that she bit into. We told the waitress and she told the manager. You would have thought the manager would have had the common decency to walk over and see what had happened. Nope, just sent the waitress to take the salad away. The place looks very dated, the service was generally slow (even before the incident) and place was empty. I definitely will never go back again.

B'Hills has a huge selection of salads, nice burgers and sandwiches. It's great for lunch as there are many selections and you don't have much excuse to be terribly picky. But I would not go to this place for dinner. It kind of looks like your grand mamas dining room, which is fine but not for dinner. No offence G'Maa... Waiters are good, they have good days and off days depends who you get and what you ask for...but again this is a great place for lunch. The food is fresh, it comes out fast, and reasonably priced. I agree with Stephanie G.s comment about it being COLD in some areas of the dining room.

I would be raving about this place a few years ago but their quality in food and service has been lacking a lot lately. Anyone who has been going to this location for as long as I have know how the food presentation use to be and even their amazing bread rolls have been suffering. It's a real shame but I continue to go back because I enjoy sitting outside that place and enjoying a meal with friends.

I don't know... I just wasn't impressed with this chain (or is it not a chain anymore)? They're supposedly well known for the salads. The rolls are good and soft. The food was alright - the capresa salad was good. The other salads my friends ordered didn't really impress. It was just a chain-type of food since you may be easily able to find something similar at another chain. The atmosphere makes me feel like I'm eating in some type of diner and some type of chain restaurant on the low-end of the scale (think Denny's, 15 years ago).

I always make an effort to go here whenever I'm in Miami. Fantastic Salads, fresh fish, huge portions, pretty good prices. My favorites are any of their salads topped with grilled salmon and a side of their home-made peanut dressing. All of their dressings are home made and everyone that I have tasted are great. The grilled dolphin is good too, as is the shrimp. I avoid the "sea crab" because it is the immitation crab, which I don't care for. The rolls are plentiful and one of the reasons why my friend comes back. Decor is ok, but that is not why I come here. If you can, sit outside and people-watch. 80s music plays in the background, which always leads to "Name that tune/artist" with our party. Service is pretty good and prices are reasonable for what you are getting. Very busy at lunch time and they do have delivery. I have been to the BHC in Plantation and it was not as good as this location. I would come back anytime to this restaurant.

We hadn't been here in a while due to really poor service the last time we went. That time we stopped in for lunch on a nice day and sat outside, only to be inundated with secondhand smoke from the table next to us. That's probably my only complaint. The inside isn't too quiet and the tables are close, but there's no smoke. Outside, even if the weather is beautiful, you're still opening up to some lung damage with your meal. This is the place for really fresh SALADS. I love'em. They're huge, so you might as well pack half of it to go right off the bat. I agree with other Yelpers, they've gotten a bit smaller than they used to be, but they're still plentiful! Their bread rolls and butter are delish and warm. My husband had a burger and was pleased with it, although it was a tad greasy and it made the bun soggy. Our server this time was Martin and he was spectacular. Good service goes a really long way! We'll be back next time the salad craving kicks in.

Love their Salads and Soups. And, you can take home the dressings :)

In a nutshell: Salads and Rolls are good and fresh but the other food is a little too greasy for me. Honey Mustard and Peanut dressing are my fav's.

This is one of those places that deserves to go out of business but doesn't ... I have lived in Miami Lakes for years and have eaten here at least 40 times.... I can say this with some certainty: their soup of the day is ALWAYS broccoli soup. Their salads are virtually all the same (and taste the same)... Hot plate food is microwaved and bland. So why do I go? I just don't know man...... convenience, to fill my stomach quick, the nice teenage waitresses they hire as servers, the bread (the dinner rolls are very good and hot).... This place has a diner atmosphere and several TV's on the wall. Make sure you arrive with your complete party in tow or else they will make you stand there and wait until your companions arrive. This seems to be a hard and fast rule (even if the place is empty). That's really all I can say.

Ordered the Santa Fa Chicken salad. It was huge and well worth the price. Only issue I had was the section we were in was too busy for the one waitress that was working. Only had one glass of water the entire time there. Also I'm not familiar with why people like them but I was turned off by the fact Dolphin was on the menu. Overall I agree that the decor is dated but the food was outstanding. Would definitely go again in a heartbeat.
(4)Jeanine M.
This place has been here for years. I've come to eat lunch with my mom a few times when I was younger and their soups are great! I came by myself for a quick lunch after a meeting and it seems the service here has gotten pretty bad.. I decided to sit outside because the weather was beautiful but I quickly regretted my decision when I had to wait 20 minutes for someone to finally attend me at my table. I finally got my bread and water. The bread is delicious, the food is in general. I got the Southwest Salad and it was pretty good! I loved the dressing but like I said.. service is slow and no one really seems happy to be there.
(4)Joe O.
I've been coming here for-e-ver. I'll make it easy for you: bread, soup, anything else and you're set for that day and leftovers the next. They also make some of their desserts in house. Salads are delicious and big enough to feed a small Ethiopian village. You can't go wrong with any soup, order them all. Lunch is packed but well worth it. I can't stop eating here, I crave it. Their menu is so large that you don't have to order the same thing for months.

Beverly Hills is near my house and I've been eating food from there for as long as I can remember. Seriously though, they had a fire when I was a kid and were closed for a while to renovate - my family was at a loss when figuring out what to eat because we used to get take out from Beverly Hills at least 3 times a week. The restaurant has quite the extensive menu. Their most popular items are probably the salads, which are huge. The soups are also pretty good, especially when eaten with their warm, delicious bread. A few of the other items I typically order are the Philly cheese steak, potato skins, and Beverly Hills pasta. I also enjoy the broccoli bites, cajun chicken Philly, and occasionally will order a chicken grill (chicken breast sandwich). For dessert, you must try the Tollhouse cookie pie, assuming you are a big chocolate fan. If not, their cookies are pretty delicious. Tip: If you're doing take-out and want a chocolate chip cookie, ask on the phone whether or not they have any so they can be saved. They go quickly and a lot of cookies can be sold during the 20 minute wait time to pick up your order!
(4)Armando G.
This is nice little restaurant that offers a good variety of dishes, however my gf and I typically order their salads. I absolutely love their Buffalo Chicken Bleu Cheese Salad. It consists of greens topped off with fried chicken tenders, red onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, mandarin orange slices, croutons and bleu cheese of course. I tend to drench this delicious creation with their Sweet and sour Bleu cheese or creamy bleu cheese dressing. They also start your meal off with a couple of their rolls served with warm butter; they are great and act as a great sponge to soak up any left over salad dressing you may have. The service is solid, neither great nor horrible.
(4)Janessa A.
This has been a staple in the heart of Miami Lakes its pretty decent has a bunch of american food from mouthwatering burgers with these awesome fries, a whole menu by itself of salads and not boring ones and a good potato soup, also have mexican, pizzas, sandwiches I have stir frys which their beverly hills stir fry is amazing this is what I order and its huge. The sweet rolls they give u are soooo good too, it cost the most 13.00 overall its good, fast, and not so pricey.
(5)Immer R.
The Salads at the BH are of the best in the city. The serve a very generous portion of salads made of the freshest ingredients. Also the make sure you don't run out of dressing as is comes to the table in a little coffee creamer type container. Moving on to the rolls, they are to die for, always served steaming hot with butter on the side.
(4)Allie S.
First time coming here for dinner and I can't complain the food was delicious!!! I ordered a chicken perm sandwich it was bigger the I expected definitely worth the wait and the price, even though they weren't that busy you can tell that they take their time to make the food. The bread rolls here are amazing very addictive as some of the other reviewers have put down as well. I love the old time feel of this place takes you back to when we had diners around. I plan to come here again and try some of their other dishes, saw chicken Cesar salad that looked wonderful.
(5)ZS G.
The bread was great! Freshly baked! I had a sample appetizer which was alright. Every thing was fried and it was over done so hard to eat. My boyfriend had a salmon dish during brunch that he liked. It was good he said.
(3)Chris P.
Great salads I recommend the crispy chicken cobb salad! In addition, every salad is huge and can be shared with a friend. Okay selection of beers, but again, the place is known for their salads. I would definitely return for some more eats!
(4)Eli G.
The buns are awesome! I don't like how they chop their salad so I ask for it sliced. They always do it. It's a bit pricey for the food. Most of the waiters are young kids. Not really great service. It's an ok place. I really don't love it much, but my husband likes their salads so I come with him all the time.
(3)Krystal S.
Thanks to my trusty Yelp app, I found this spot when I was trying to find somewhere to eat in the area with my best friend after work. WE WERE STARVING (Like always). I had no idea what I was going to eat here, I recalled eating here once or twice when I was much, much younger. All I could remember was that the bread was good, and yes. it. was. The bread rolls were very warm and soft. They bring them out with a dollop of butter and the butter just melted into the roll when I put it on it. So good! I ordered their Buffalo chicken strips with EXTRA blue cheese- I love blue cheese! The food didn't take long and it was pretty good. The blue cheese was so good though, I feel as though some places don't have good blue cheese or ranch, but theirs was great. The fries were seasoned fries and I really liked them too. However, next time I would like to get their Buffalo Chicken Salad or their Southwest Chicken Salad... they both sounded good, and I saw a couple receive their salads and THEY WERE HUGE! Definitely getting that next time. The service was great also. Our server was really sweet, not talkative at all, but, brought out everything promptly.
(5)Farrah S.
From the the fresh bread to the tea, this place is consistent, fresh, and a throwback. Beverly Hills looks like it is fresh out of the 80's, from their music to their decor. Any chicken plate is fabulous, their salads are great (the sweet island chutney dressing is PERFECT), and the soups are robust and rich in flavor. Service can be a hit or miss, but Beverly Hills is the perfect lunch spot.
(4)Richelle P.
Food is great, service is FAST! Salads are HUGE and Jennifer is a great waitress.
(4)Amie M.
The place smells like a retirement center. The food has very low seasoning such as the fried chicken sandwich and cheese steak. I also asked for extra cheese on the Philly cheesesteak sandwich but it did not have extra cheese. The broccoli and cheese soup tasted good however it had some hard chunks in it. When it was time to pay, no one was around! The complimentary rolls were good. Nothing wow'd us so will not be back. Not worth the price.

Not a bad place for lunch. Upon arriving I was a bit skeptical and a bit let down by the lack of friendly faces. Honestly I wasn't greeted by anyone or even acknowledged. I was very hungry or shall I say on the verge of Hangry. I thought this would surely end up as a 2 or 1 star review. The place is somewhere on the corner of 50s meets 80s. It's a little retro. But the music is great if you like 80s music. I was digging it :-) I agree with other reviews that the place needs a little touch up or a bit of tlc but if you can get past this, the salads are actually good. Where we sat it was also quite chilly so bring a little something to cover up if you're wearing short sleeves (I remember reading in other reviews that it was cold here). But anyhow, the salads. THEY ARE HUGE. I ordered the Chinese salad with fried chicken and it was delightful. It must've been approximately $12 and I could've easily shared this with someone. Honestly I think if you get a soup and a salad, two people can share this and actually have a light lunch at a very reasonable price.

We have been eating at Beverly Hills for a very long time. Can't imagine Miami Lakes with out this place. We love the blackened Dolphin Dinner, all the salads are great too. Give them a try you won't be disappointed.

This place is great!! Salad is amazing and there honey mustard dressing is the best in town!! Bread rolls are amazing!!

Beverly Hills is less than a minute from where I live and I have gone to eat there 5-6 times and have ordered take-out about the same amount of times in the past year. Although their service is good and the servers are attentive, the food is hit or miss. Their salads are great, they're definitely their strong-point. I always order the same thing - their Fajita Salad with steak which comes in a crispy taco shell with grilled peppers, onions, cheese, sour cream, guacamole, and salsa. It's pretty delicious. However, any time I have deviated from their salads, I have left disappointed with the food. I've tried their skirt steak topped with mushrooms, onions, and cheese and the steak was not cooked well. We ordered it medium and it was overcooked and rubbery. The side of vegetables that it came with were practically flavorless and required a ton of salt to even be able to eat. If you eat here, stick with their salads and their bread and you won't be disappointed.
(3)Sara L.
Just tried for the first time this morning. I had the Beverly Hills Breakfast (Eggs, Bacon, Potatoes, and Cantaloupe) comes with Coffee/Tea and Orange Juice for $9.99. It includes complimentary bread. I was really impressed food was great.
(5)Ari N.
An ode to older style restaurants. It feels right out of the eighties or nineties. The menu is huge and sometimes make it tough to decide. The bread is delicious and the portions are huge. Sometimes the staff is not good. They have some waiters that are amazing and some that are lackluster. The food is not five star cuisine, but definitely good for a quick diner type bite.
(3)Maritza S.
It's an ok place. I think their quality has gone down over the years. I always order the Caesar salad. Or the Cobb salad my last time I noticed that the chicken portion of the Cobb salad was very small compared to what it used to be. I think they may be making their portions smaller, but prices the same. This is an almost $15 salad there should be more protein in it . The water needs to be asked for, the waiters don't just tell it. It's gone down, unfortunately.
(3)Pilar M.
The BHC is not gourmet, but it will certainly satisfy a particular tooth...especially if you are one who enjoys the sight of a large portion. I have been to this location several times and after having tried some various dishes my conclusion is it is a good place to grab a bite BUT you MUST learn how to order. Example: Do not expect the California shrimp pasta to come with avocados that are perfectly ripe (or ripe at all, for that matter) for such care to detail is a bit more demanding than this place offers. However, it is a creamy Alfredo-type dish, so if you're into that, don't hesitate. Also, they will gladly change the pasta shape for you to say linguini, penne, etc. Do NOT order the salmon if you are a big salmon fan. I have made this mistake twice and both times, they have broiled it to the point of being too dry. If you just want a simple salad and the heart of the dish (salmon) is staggeringly dull...your meal becomes a disappointment. It is much better to just avoid this altogether and go for any of their strengths...which I would say is any chicken dish or a burger for something more primitive. Chicken parmigiana (when I've seen others order it) always needs more mariana, so ask for extra. Their salads are varied and huge, dressing is always on the side if you're one who prefers that. I'd recommend cheese on the side too. Too many calories and not high enough quality to justify them. Also, excessive. You do not want flavor to be drowned by a single ingredient. The Asian chicken dish is really good...and they are very accommodating with switching out rice for lettuce or anything like that if you want low carb. Speaking of carbs, the bread and butter at the start of the meal is probably the best thing. Warm and sweet pillows with a whipped butter that dissolves in your mouth. Hard to resist. Stick to the basics. The simple food is what they do best. It's not fine dining, but it's pretty good.
(3)Lidice L.
We are having late lunch here today, small cafe in Miami lakes. Old, cozy place, very good service, amazing salad variety, as a matter of fact that's what my husband and I are having and they are very tasty and beautifully presented. Would definitely come back here
(4)Nicole V.
Ok place for a quick bite, salads are huge and fresh. Big issue with cleanliness. I ordered take away and as I waited I could not help but look at freezer behind cashier and small upper refrigerator. Mold all over upright freezer door ; and the fridge with sliding door very dirty. They should really invest in major clean up or better yet make a small investment in a new freezer and fridge. Hope the kitchen in the rear is cleaner.....3 stars is for the food only.
(3)Annette P.
Huge fan of BHC! I've been eating here for nearly 28 years. Oh wait, I'm only 27 so how'd that happen? Forget the Math! The menu selections are unbelievable. It doesn't matter what you're in the mood for, you'll find a menu item to satisfy your craving. They have short healthy side menu with several good selections, the alternative casserole is excellent-rice cooked perfectly and salmon, yes salmon, is perfect. They also have over 30 salads to pick from, I've had at least 8 and all were good and oversized portions. They have a burger section, a Mexican section (Mexican pizza and quesadillas are great), a pasta section and more. Ribs and steak, which I never expect to be good at a restaurant unless it's the specialty, are very good here. Ribs are fall off the bone. Service is also exceptional. Quick and with a smile and typically, you will find the owner on site. Oh, and rarely a wait! We're surprised this place hasn't gotten more attention. Maybe I shouldn't post this. Lol!
(4)Grisel L.
BHC has been around in Miami Lakes I believe before I was even born. In restaurant years, that it an eternity. BHC serves the local Miami Lakes community, as well as the lunch crowd from the many businesses in the area. You can never go wrong with ordering any salad here. The menu consists of over 10 different salads, which are mega portioned that can easily be shared. My favorite is the classic Crispy Chicken Cobb with a side of honey mustard. Not so light, but its the best salad I've ever had in all seriousness. BHC also offers sandwiches, wraps, burgers and pastas, along with entrees. But my go-to item is always the salad. The bread rolls and sweet butter is also a nice treat and quite addictive. If you are ever in the area around lunch time, I highly recommend coming to BHC. Consistent and comforting!
(3)Kimberly C.
Food was good, waitress was pleasant and the rolls were delicious. Everything was fresh, clean and nicely cut. However, I should have ordered soup since it was freezing in there. I've been coming here for years and wish they would finally give it a 'face lift." A nice little remodeling would do this place some good.

Complimentary Dinner rolls upon arriving are amazing! My son ordered a cheeseburger wow huge and nicely put together I had a teriyaki rice bowl super yummmm wish it was closer to home! Til next time cafe Beverly Hills !!!

(4)Tess O.
Great food. The dolphin fingers were disappointing but the other dishes were delishes. The desserts are huge. Prices are okay. More expensive than anywhere else with a diner atmosphere but the food and service are 100 times better too. 9/10 experience. I'll be coming back to try more plates.
(5)Joyce A.
Carb addicts everywhere unite!!! There is nothing like their freshly baked bread!!! Trust me. Second best item: the cream of broccoli! So yes, you can enjoy vegetables. It's loaded with chunks of broccoli and cheese..yummy cheese. So, if after you've gorged on bread and the cream of broccoli you have room, try anything on the menu. I dare you to finish it. The portions are HUGE. As a salad lover, I suggest all of them. Their home made dressing makes you want to bathe in cause it's sooooo good!
(4)Ana F.
The bread rolls you receive upon arrival are delicious! I usually order the same thing, the Crispy Chicken Salad which i love. All the salads are huge, 2 or even 3 people can eat from just one or you can just take the rest home and they even give you extra dressing! I come back here at least once a month.
(4)James P.
This place is good enough to come back every once in a while. The food isn't bad but this very last time I tried a spinach salad and added mahi. I requested the spicy vinaigrette dressing, which was very good. I did enjoy the salad, but don't necessary believe I should pay practically $20 for a salad. The complimentary bread is great, they're brought out warm and with some butter to add. I do have to say the Spinach bites are definitely a must with the honey mustard dip! I will be back but definitely won't be my first choice considering the amount of bang for your buck.
(3)Dan R.
good food and great soup.
(3)Jackie G.
I'm a regular for lunch. Good soups and sandwiches. I regularly order the Garlic Chicken Melt on a Pita with mushrooms. Comes with fries but I get it with baked potatoe. It's very good. Their dinner rolls are very popular.
(4)Peter A.
If I am going to be in Miami Lakes during lunch hours, I am coming here. The food is fresh and very healthy. If you are watching what you eat, this is the place to come. The plates are large, but I promise you that the calories aren't... They provide for a very nutrient dense meal when you order the salads and if you are watching your carbs, trust me they have something for you too. The staff is good, sometimes a little slow, but that's ok.
(4)Lissette C.
We were a party of 6 and were seated for 20 min waiting for our drinks. Should of had more waiters/waitresses for today. We walked out and left :(
(1)Abe F.
While the decor and menu haven't changed since the 80s, I can't quite say the same for the quality of the food (or maybe my childhood memories of the burgers and salads are better than the current offerings). Portions are generous, the staff are ok - nothing memorable one way or another. It's better than dining off the side of the Turnpike, but not really a place for a particularly great meal and night out with friends.
(3)Xavier P.
Beverly Hills Cafe. It's a shame that it closed down in the Sunset Place area. Their Beverly Hills pasta is amazing, so is their bread. They knock it out of the park with their salads and have the best ranch dressing I ever had (it's homemade!) Thank heavens that there is still one in Miami Lakes. I will be back.
(4)Elizabeth P.
The salads are the best, but not very impressed with the other menu items. They have very big portions so if you want to eat light you might want to share your dish.
(3)Alexander S.
Rolls are legendary, delicious soups, amazing fries, pretty much great everything ! Big fan
(4)Cheri A.
I should have had a salad based on the reviews. I was excited to see their extensive menu, and decided to go with a sandwich instead of one of their large, plentiful salads. The bread was stale and dry and greasy. How's that possible? The tomatoes were not even ripe and were flavorless. Not to mention one of the slices was the end piece with the stem hole on it. I hate that. I did have a side salad and that was very good. Someone at our table had a fish sandwich and complained that the fish was chewy and dry, overcooked and not that fresh. Given that Miami is not very vegan friendly to begin with, I have to say this is a good place for vegan options, but you'll be limited to salad and sandwiches, and maybe soups on somedays. They also offered a veg burger, but not sure if it was vegan or not. The service was pretty good in the beginning, but once we got our food the waiter kind of disappeared until we asked for the check.
(2)Janelle L.
My experience here hasn't been so good the past couple of times. The service was super slow and the sad part was that the restaurant wasn't even full; our waitress had only one table. There's really no excuse for slow service when the place is that empty. However, I have been coming here for years and my overall experience has been pretty good. They do deliver which is always an added bonus. My favorite meal is the philly cheesestake. Their teriyaki steak and yellow rice is also delicious. It's a good place to go to for a quick lunch. They also have a lot of health options so if you're on a diet this would be a good place to try out.
(3)Thomas M.
B'Hills has a huge selection of salads, nice burgers and sandwiches. It's great for lunch as there are many selections and you don't have much excuse to be terribly picky. But I would not go to this place for dinner. It kind of looks like your grand mamas dining room, which is fine but not for dinner. No offence G'Maa... Waiters are good, they have good days and off days depends who you get and what you ask for...but again this is a great place for lunch. The food is fresh, it comes out fast, and reasonably priced. I agree with Stephanie G.s comment about it being COLD in some areas of the dining room.
(3)Todd W.
I would be raving about this place a few years ago but their quality in food and service has been lacking a lot lately. Anyone who has been going to this location for as long as I have know how the food presentation use to be and even their amazing bread rolls have been suffering. It's a real shame but I continue to go back because I enjoy sitting outside that place and enjoying a meal with friends.
(3)Shelly Y.
Excellent meal and staff. We recently moved to Miami lakes and I know we will frequent this restaurant often!
(5)Jordan N.
I don't know... I just wasn't impressed with this chain (or is it not a chain anymore)? They're supposedly well known for the salads. The rolls are good and soft. The food was alright - the capresa salad was good. The other salads my friends ordered didn't really impress. It was just a chain-type of food since you may be easily able to find something similar at another chain. The atmosphere makes me feel like I'm eating in some type of diner and some type of chain restaurant on the low-end of the scale (think Denny's, 15 years ago).

Best bread rolls!! The bread always comes out nice and warm with whipped butter. The crispy chicken salad with honey mustard dressing is delicious & a shareable portion. My bf & I alway share the broccoli cheese soup (my favorite not available Fridays) & a salad. All the portions on the menu are BIG & never disappoint. The Bleu cheese burger is also very good & shareable

If you want to drown face down in a bowl of lettuce, then you need to have a Beverly Hills Cafe Salad. They have like a gazillion salads and all are extremely generous portions. There are other things on the menu (burgers, sandwiches, pasta, blah, blah, blah), but salads are their thing. Been coming here for about 15 years and always leaf stuffed (haha, I made a funny). Seriously though, hit it up if you're in the area and are looking for someplace healthy with various options. I know there was another location in South Miami, but it closed a while back. Oh, and the bread is outta control! Word.

I will always be a HUGE fan of the Beverly Hills Cafe, no matter where it's located. In my humble opinion, they make the most delicious salads on the face of the earth. My only complaint about this location would be that it was RIDICULOUSLY cold in the dining area. Turn down the A/C people! PS Please, please, please bring the Beverly Hills Cafe back to South Miami, Coral Gables or Downtown Miami. WE MISS YOU!

They have the most friendliest staff. The food is always fresh and delicious. They have the Best Benedict in town.

My favorite restaurant in ML! I love everything I have ordered from there. I've had my bridal and baby showers there too. Love, love, love BHC!

Had the white bean soup with turkey sandwich. Very good.

I have eaten here a few times for a quick lunch with colleagues. We have never had any major problems with our meal, and the service is always friendly however quite slow. Why come here? The bread and salads. They have some of the best dinner rolls I have had, and the salads are delicious. I have tried some of their other entrees (sandwiches, hamburgers, pasta) and nothing else has enticed me to order it more than once. But the Waldorf salad or the Chicken Walnut salad is to die for. The prices are not cheap for a diner atmosphere (most entrees, salads included, are between $13-16), however the food is plentiful. My colleague and I always share a salad, and have never been charged an extra fee. They even split the salad into two plates for us, at no additional charge. The service is quite slow - if you have a strict lunch policy, you may want to ask for the bill once the food arrives. This will normally keep the lunch well under an hour. The wait normally happens after the food is delivered. Also, letting the waitress know that you are on a schedule will normally speed up the process. They have always been very friendly about it.

The few times I have been here has been mostly because my sister has forced me to come. The food I have had, which I can only remember the last meal, was obviously not very memerable. It wasn't really bad, but I have had better. The main reason I reviewed it so low is because I do not like this place inside. The decor, even though I know its on purpose, reminds me of the beginning of Three Men and a Baby. Its that cheesy late 80's pink and aqau decor.. Don't get me wrong, I love the 80's, but I just feel like the place is old in a bad way. THe times I have beem there its always empty. I dont remember the exact time or days, but the fact that its empty, makes it feel sad inside. Maybe I have just gone on off days. I haven't given up though. I am willing to try it again.
(2)Jessica E.
Best chicken salad ever. Try the lite lunch...delicious. Bread is so good too.
(4)Cindy F.
I have been coming here for a very long time and this place has never ceased to provide excellent quality and service. I have never had a bad experience coming here and always leave satisfied. Great food, great family atmosphere and a lot of memories with my own family. 5 stars all the way!
(5)Placido V.
Good for family and business lunch. Excellent sandwiches and the Beverly Hills Cobb Salad is simply an awesome plate that feeds two.
(4)Monica M.
I've been coming to BHC for well over 20 years. My parents even had their first date here back in the 80's! This place has a home-y, yet, 90's vibe to it. Their food is delicious, always fresh. I definitely do not appreciate the 18% gratuity added, because some of their wait staff is very young and not professional at all.
(4)Fernando and Melissa H.
Great salad place!! If you like salads this is your kind of place, they have so many different types of salads to choose from. I have never seen so many salads on one menu before. The times I have gone the service has been good. I usually have dinner here with my mom and we always get a soup and salad combo. The bread they serve before the meal is sooo good as well. This is also a nice place to sit outside in the cooler months or early in the morning when its not to hot. Many people walk to this restaurant from the surrounding areas with there dog and enjoy breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner sitting outside with there pooch. -Melissa Marie
(4)Mannie M.
Have eaten here two times and tried about 10 different dishes and there is not ONE that I dislike, everything seems to taste better than the last thing you eat. The place is not fancy, it kind of reminds me of Denny's but the food speaks for itself.
(5)Francisco F.
Went there with the family to grab dinner. Everything on the table that wasn't a bread roll or salad was incredibly greasy. My wife ordered a grill chicken salad and it had a grill screw in it that she bit into. We told the waitress and she told the manager. You would have thought the manager would have had the common decency to walk over and see what had happened. Nope, just sent the waitress to take the salad away. The place looks very dated, the service was generally slow (even before the incident) and place was empty. I definitely will never go back again.
(1)Christina V.
While I have enjoyed several lunchtime meals here for years my favorite thing to come to this restaurant for is the brunch. The food is fresh and always tasty, and the service is efficient and pleasant. I can't say I've tried one single thing on their brunch menu that I didnt like.. the portions are also very abundant. Along wit the fantastic food, the location is pretty convenient also.. right on a main drag and there is plenty of prking out front. The pricing is also a great treat. Just this morning my fiance and I had a lovely brunch here and the bill came to $20. Not bad huh? If you're in the are I would definitely urge you to stop inside... you wont regret it.
(4)Elizabeth M.
I've been coming here for years! Beverly Hills Cafe is the kind of place that everyone in town goes to. They have everything from Chicken Parm to Fajitas to really great salads! Your meal always starts off with warm rolls. They're so good, it's tough to only have just one. I've gone through phases where I've stuck with just one thing on the menu, then moved on to something else. My current obsession is their Tropical Salad. I am not a salad person, but this one is special! It has dried fruit, toasted coconut, mandarin oranges, chopped greens and a whole lot of other delicious ingredients topped with their Sweet Island Chutney dressing. It's like a party in your mouth! The salads are HUGE so 2 (even 3) can eat without a problem. The truth is, you really can't go wrong with anything you order here but save room for dessert! Their Tollhouse pie is life changing!!!

I always make an effort to go here whenever I'm in Miami. Fantastic Salads, fresh fish, huge portions, pretty good prices. My favorites are any of their salads topped with grilled salmon and a side of their home-made peanut dressing. All of their dressings are home made and everyone that I have tasted are great. The grilled dolphin is good too, as is the shrimp. I avoid the "sea crab" because it is the immitation crab, which I don't care for. The rolls are plentiful and one of the reasons why my friend comes back. Decor is ok, but that is not why I come here. If you can, sit outside and people-watch. 80s music plays in the background, which always leads to "Name that tune/artist" with our party. Service is pretty good and prices are reasonable for what you are getting. Very busy at lunch time and they do have delivery. I have been to the BHC in Plantation and it was not as good as this location. I would come back anytime to this restaurant.

We hadn't been here in a while due to really poor service the last time we went. That time we stopped in for lunch on a nice day and sat outside, only to be inundated with secondhand smoke from the table next to us. That's probably my only complaint. The inside isn't too quiet and the tables are close, but there's no smoke. Outside, even if the weather is beautiful, you're still opening up to some lung damage with your meal. This is the place for really fresh SALADS. I love'em. They're huge, so you might as well pack half of it to go right off the bat. I agree with other Yelpers, they've gotten a bit smaller than they used to be, but they're still plentiful! Their bread rolls and butter are delish and warm. My husband had a burger and was pleased with it, although it was a tad greasy and it made the bun soggy. Our server this time was Martin and he was spectacular. Good service goes a really long way! We'll be back next time the salad craving kicks in.
(4)Christy S.
Love their Salads and Soups. And, you can take home the dressings :)
(4)Carolyn R.
In a nutshell: Salads and Rolls are good and fresh but the other food is a little too greasy for me. Honey Mustard and Peanut dressing are my fav's.
(3)Frank M.
Ur menu sucks ... that simple
(2)Ari N.
An ode to older style restaurants. It feels right out of the eighties or nineties. The menu is huge and sometimes make it tough to decide. The bread is delicious and the portions are huge. Sometimes the staff is not good. They have some waiters that are amazing and some that are lackluster. The food is not five star cuisine, but definitely good for a quick diner type bite.
(3)Kimberly C.
Food was good, waitress was pleasant and the rolls were delicious. Everything was fresh, clean and nicely cut. However, I should have ordered soup since it was freezing in there. I've been coming here for years and wish they would finally give it a 'face lift." A nice little remodeling would do this place some good.
(3)Jenn C.
Complimentary Dinner rolls upon arriving are amazing! My son ordered a cheeseburger wow huge and nicely put together I had a teriyaki rice bowl super yummmm wish it was closer to home! Til next time cafe Beverly Hills !!!
(5)Maritza S.
It's an ok place. I think their quality has gone down over the years. I always order the Caesar salad. Or the Cobb salad my last time I noticed that the chicken portion of the Cobb salad was very small compared to what it used to be. I think they may be making their portions smaller, but prices the same. This is an almost $15 salad there should be more protein in it . The water needs to be asked for, the waiters don't just tell it. It's gone down, unfortunately.
(3)Juliette C.
Love this place for lunch. Their salads and soups are delicious. They have a great variety of salads to choose from and they are quite large if you would like to share them. The servers are very friendly adding to the family oriented ambiance.
(4)Joe O.
I've been coming here for-e-ver. I'll make it easy for you: bread, soup, anything else and you're set for that day and leftovers the next. They also make some of their desserts in house. Salads are delicious and big enough to feed a small Ethiopian village. You can't go wrong with any soup, order them all. Lunch is packed but well worth it. I can't stop eating here, I crave it. Their menu is so large that you don't have to order the same thing for months.
(5)Kara P.
Beverly Hills is near my house and I've been eating food from there for as long as I can remember. Seriously though, they had a fire when I was a kid and were closed for a while to renovate - my family was at a loss when figuring out what to eat because we used to get take out from Beverly Hills at least 3 times a week. The restaurant has quite the extensive menu. Their most popular items are probably the salads, which are huge. The soups are also pretty good, especially when eaten with their warm, delicious bread. A few of the other items I typically order are the Philly cheese steak, potato skins, and Beverly Hills pasta. I also enjoy the broccoli bites, cajun chicken Philly, and occasionally will order a chicken grill (chicken breast sandwich). For dessert, you must try the Tollhouse cookie pie, assuming you are a big chocolate fan. If not, their cookies are pretty delicious. Tip: If you're doing take-out and want a chocolate chip cookie, ask on the phone whether or not they have any so they can be saved. They go quickly and a lot of cookies can be sold during the 20 minute wait time to pick up your order!
(4)Armando G.
This is nice little restaurant that offers a good variety of dishes, however my gf and I typically order their salads. I absolutely love their Buffalo Chicken Bleu Cheese Salad. It consists of greens topped off with fried chicken tenders, red onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, mandarin orange slices, croutons and bleu cheese of course. I tend to drench this delicious creation with their Sweet and sour Bleu cheese or creamy bleu cheese dressing. They also start your meal off with a couple of their rolls served with warm butter; they are great and act as a great sponge to soak up any left over salad dressing you may have. The service is solid, neither great nor horrible.
(4)Nasha W.
Not a bad place for lunch. Upon arriving I was a bit skeptical and a bit let down by the lack of friendly faces. Honestly I wasn't greeted by anyone or even acknowledged. I was very hungry or shall I say on the verge of Hangry. I thought this would surely end up as a 2 or 1 star review. The place is somewhere on the corner of 50s meets 80s. It's a little retro. But the music is great if you like 80s music. I was digging it :-) I agree with other reviews that the place needs a little touch up or a bit of tlc but if you can get past this, the salads are actually good. Where we sat it was also quite chilly so bring a little something to cover up if you're wearing short sleeves (I remember reading in other reviews that it was cold here). But anyhow, the salads. THEY ARE HUGE. I ordered the Chinese salad with fried chicken and it was delightful. It must've been approximately $12 and I could've easily shared this with someone. Honestly I think if you get a soup and a salad, two people can share this and actually have a light lunch at a very reasonable price.
(3)Lorena R.
We have been eating at Beverly Hills for a very long time. Can't imagine Miami Lakes with out this place. We love the blackened Dolphin Dinner, all the salads are great too. Give them a try you won't be disappointed.
(4)Alexandria G.
This place is great!! Salad is amazing and there honey mustard dressing is the best in town!! Bread rolls are amazing!!
(4)Pilar M.
The BHC is not gourmet, but it will certainly satisfy a particular tooth...especially if you are one who enjoys the sight of a large portion. I have been to this location several times and after having tried some various dishes my conclusion is it is a good place to grab a bite BUT you MUST learn how to order. Example: Do not expect the California shrimp pasta to come with avocados that are perfectly ripe (or ripe at all, for that matter) for such care to detail is a bit more demanding than this place offers. However, it is a creamy Alfredo-type dish, so if you're into that, don't hesitate. Also, they will gladly change the pasta shape for you to say linguini, penne, etc. Do NOT order the salmon if you are a big salmon fan. I have made this mistake twice and both times, they have broiled it to the point of being too dry. If you just want a simple salad and the heart of the dish (salmon) is staggeringly dull...your meal becomes a disappointment. It is much better to just avoid this altogether and go for any of their strengths...which I would say is any chicken dish or a burger for something more primitive. Chicken parmigiana (when I've seen others order it) always needs more mariana, so ask for extra. Their salads are varied and huge, dressing is always on the side if you're one who prefers that. I'd recommend cheese on the side too. Too many calories and not high enough quality to justify them. Also, excessive. You do not want flavor to be drowned by a single ingredient. The Asian chicken dish is really good...and they are very accommodating with switching out rice for lettuce or anything like that if you want low carb. Speaking of carbs, the bread and butter at the start of the meal is probably the best thing. Warm and sweet pillows with a whipped butter that dissolves in your mouth. Hard to resist. Stick to the basics. The simple food is what they do best. It's not fine dining, but it's pretty good.
(3)Lidice L.
We are having late lunch here today, small cafe in Miami lakes. Old, cozy place, very good service, amazing salad variety, as a matter of fact that's what my husband and I are having and they are very tasty and beautifully presented. Would definitely come back here
(4)Nicole V.
Ok place for a quick bite, salads are huge and fresh. Big issue with cleanliness. I ordered take away and as I waited I could not help but look at freezer behind cashier and small upper refrigerator. Mold all over upright freezer door ; and the fridge with sliding door very dirty. They should really invest in major clean up or better yet make a small investment in a new freezer and fridge. Hope the kitchen in the rear is cleaner.....3 stars is for the food only.
(3)Grisel L.
BHC has been around in Miami Lakes I believe before I was even born. In restaurant years, that it an eternity. BHC serves the local Miami Lakes community, as well as the lunch crowd from the many businesses in the area. You can never go wrong with ordering any salad here. The menu consists of over 10 different salads, which are mega portioned that can easily be shared. My favorite is the classic Crispy Chicken Cobb with a side of honey mustard. Not so light, but its the best salad I've ever had in all seriousness. BHC also offers sandwiches, wraps, burgers and pastas, along with entrees. But my go-to item is always the salad. The bread rolls and sweet butter is also a nice treat and quite addictive. If you are ever in the area around lunch time, I highly recommend coming to BHC. Consistent and comforting!
(3)Krystal S.
Thanks to my trusty Yelp app, I found this spot when I was trying to find somewhere to eat in the area with my best friend after work. WE WERE STARVING (Like always). I had no idea what I was going to eat here, I recalled eating here once or twice when I was much, much younger. All I could remember was that the bread was good, and yes. it. was. The bread rolls were very warm and soft. They bring them out with a dollop of butter and the butter just melted into the roll when I put it on it. So good! I ordered their Buffalo chicken strips with EXTRA blue cheese- I love blue cheese! The food didn't take long and it was pretty good. The blue cheese was so good though, I feel as though some places don't have good blue cheese or ranch, but theirs was great. The fries were seasoned fries and I really liked them too. However, next time I would like to get their Buffalo Chicken Salad or their Southwest Chicken Salad... they both sounded good, and I saw a couple receive their salads and THEY WERE HUGE! Definitely getting that next time. The service was great also. Our server was really sweet, not talkative at all, but, brought out everything promptly.
(5)Farrah S.
From the the fresh bread to the tea, this place is consistent, fresh, and a throwback. Beverly Hills looks like it is fresh out of the 80's, from their music to their decor. Any chicken plate is fabulous, their salads are great (the sweet island chutney dressing is PERFECT), and the soups are robust and rich in flavor. Service can be a hit or miss, but Beverly Hills is the perfect lunch spot.
(4)Richelle P.
Food is great, service is FAST! Salads are HUGE and Jennifer is a great waitress.
(4)Amie M.
The place smells like a retirement center. The food has very low seasoning such as the fried chicken sandwich and cheese steak. I also asked for extra cheese on the Philly cheesesteak sandwich but it did not have extra cheese. The broccoli and cheese soup tasted good however it had some hard chunks in it. When it was time to pay, no one was around! The complimentary rolls were good. Nothing wow'd us so will not be back. Not worth the price.
(2)Allie S.
First time coming here for dinner and I can't complain the food was delicious!!! I ordered a chicken perm sandwich it was bigger the I expected definitely worth the wait and the price, even though they weren't that busy you can tell that they take their time to make the food. The bread rolls here are amazing very addictive as some of the other reviewers have put down as well. I love the old time feel of this place takes you back to when we had diners around. I plan to come here again and try some of their other dishes, saw chicken Cesar salad that looked wonderful.
(5)Joyce A.
Carb addicts everywhere unite!!! There is nothing like their freshly baked bread!!! Trust me. Second best item: the cream of broccoli! So yes, you can enjoy vegetables. It's loaded with chunks of broccoli and cheese..yummy cheese. So, if after you've gorged on bread and the cream of broccoli you have room, try anything on the menu. I dare you to finish it. The portions are HUGE. As a salad lover, I suggest all of them. Their home made dressing makes you want to bathe in cause it's sooooo good!
(4)ZS G.
The bread was great! Freshly baked! I had a sample appetizer which was alright. Every thing was fried and it was over done so hard to eat. My boyfriend had a salmon dish during brunch that he liked. It was good he said.
(3)Jessica J.
This place is great! The portions are huge and the salad was great. The service was good. I loved my pasta which was the California shrimp pasta.
(4)Tess O.
Great food. The dolphin fingers were disappointing but the other dishes were delishes. The desserts are huge. Prices are okay. More expensive than anywhere else with a diner atmosphere but the food and service are 100 times better too. 9/10 experience. I'll be coming back to try more plates.
(5)Ana F.
The bread rolls you receive upon arrival are delicious! I usually order the same thing, the Crispy Chicken Salad which i love. All the salads are huge, 2 or even 3 people can eat from just one or you can just take the rest home and they even give you extra dressing! I come back here at least once a month.
(4)James P.
This place is good enough to come back every once in a while. The food isn't bad but this very last time I tried a spinach salad and added mahi. I requested the spicy vinaigrette dressing, which was very good. I did enjoy the salad, but don't necessary believe I should pay practically $20 for a salad. The complimentary bread is great, they're brought out warm and with some butter to add. I do have to say the Spinach bites are definitely a must with the honey mustard dip! I will be back but definitely won't be my first choice considering the amount of bang for your buck.
(3)Chris P.
Great salads I recommend the crispy chicken cobb salad! In addition, every salad is huge and can be shared with a friend. Okay selection of beers, but again, the place is known for their salads. I would definitely return for some more eats!
(4)Eli G.
The buns are awesome! I don't like how they chop their salad so I ask for it sliced. They always do it. It's a bit pricey for the food. Most of the waiters are young kids. Not really great service. It's an ok place. I really don't love it much, but my husband likes their salads so I come with him all the time.
(3)Jennifer C.
Beverly Hills is less than a minute from where I live and I have gone to eat there 5-6 times and have ordered take-out about the same amount of times in the past year. Although their service is good and the servers are attentive, the food is hit or miss. Their salads are great, they're definitely their strong-point. I always order the same thing - their Fajita Salad with steak which comes in a crispy taco shell with grilled peppers, onions, cheese, sour cream, guacamole, and salsa. It's pretty delicious. However, any time I have deviated from their salads, I have left disappointed with the food. I've tried their skirt steak topped with mushrooms, onions, and cheese and the steak was not cooked well. We ordered it medium and it was overcooked and rubbery. The side of vegetables that it came with were practically flavorless and required a ton of salt to even be able to eat. If you eat here, stick with their salads and their bread and you won't be disappointed.
(3)Sara L.
Just tried for the first time this morning. I had the Beverly Hills Breakfast (Eggs, Bacon, Potatoes, and Cantaloupe) comes with Coffee/Tea and Orange Juice for $9.99. It includes complimentary bread. I was really impressed food was great.
(5)Annette P.
Huge fan of BHC! I've been eating here for nearly 28 years. Oh wait, I'm only 27 so how'd that happen? Forget the Math! The menu selections are unbelievable. It doesn't matter what you're in the mood for, you'll find a menu item to satisfy your craving. They have short healthy side menu with several good selections, the alternative casserole is excellent-rice cooked perfectly and salmon, yes salmon, is perfect. They also have over 30 salads to pick from, I've had at least 8 and all were good and oversized portions. They have a burger section, a Mexican section (Mexican pizza and quesadillas are great), a pasta section and more. Ribs and steak, which I never expect to be good at a restaurant unless it's the specialty, are very good here. Ribs are fall off the bone. Service is also exceptional. Quick and with a smile and typically, you will find the owner on site. Oh, and rarely a wait! We're surprised this place hasn't gotten more attention. Maybe I shouldn't post this. Lol!
(4)Richard W.
Ordered the Santa Fa Chicken salad. It was huge and well worth the price. Only issue I had was the section we were in was too busy for the one waitress that was working. Only had one glass of water the entire time there. Also I'm not familiar with why people like them but I was turned off by the fact Dolphin was on the menu. Overall I agree that the decor is dated but the food was outstanding. Would definitely go again in a heartbeat.
(4)Jeanine M.
This place has been here for years. I've come to eat lunch with my mom a few times when I was younger and their soups are great! I came by myself for a quick lunch after a meeting and it seems the service here has gotten pretty bad.. I decided to sit outside because the weather was beautiful but I quickly regretted my decision when I had to wait 20 minutes for someone to finally attend me at my table. I finally got my bread and water. The bread is delicious, the food is in general. I got the Southwest Salad and it was pretty good! I loved the dressing but like I said.. service is slow and no one really seems happy to be there.
(4)Jennette P.
Best bread rolls!! The bread always comes out nice and warm with whipped butter. The crispy chicken salad with honey mustard dressing is delicious & a shareable portion. My bf & I alway share the broccoli cheese soup (my favorite not available Fridays) & a salad. All the portions on the menu are BIG & never disappoint. The Bleu cheese burger is also very good & shareable
(5)Jan N.
If you want to drown face down in a bowl of lettuce, then you need to have a Beverly Hills Cafe Salad. They have like a gazillion salads and all are extremely generous portions. There are other things on the menu (burgers, sandwiches, pasta, blah, blah, blah), but salads are their thing. Been coming here for about 15 years and always leaf stuffed (haha, I made a funny).

Oh, and the bread is outta control! Word.

I will always be a HUGE fan of the Beverly Hills Cafe, no matter where it's located. In my humble opinion, they make the most delicious salads on the face of the earth. My only complaint about this location would be that it was RIDICULOUSLY cold in the dining area. Turn down the A/C people! PS Please, please, please bring the Beverly Hills Cafe back to South Miami, Coral Gables or Downtown Miami. WE MISS YOU!

They have the most friendliest staff. The food is always fresh and delicious. They have the Best Benedict in town.

We were a party of 6 and were seated for 20 min waiting for our drinks. Should of had more waiters/waitresses for today. We walked out and left :(
(1)Abe F.
While the decor and menu haven't changed since the 80s, I can't quite say the same for the quality of the food (or maybe my childhood memories of the burgers and salads are better than the current offerings). Portions are generous, the staff are ok - nothing memorable one way or another. It's better than dining off the side of the Turnpike, but not really a place for a particularly great meal and night out with friends.
(3)Xavier P.
Beverly Hills Cafe. It's a shame that it closed down in the Sunset Place area. Their Beverly Hills pasta is amazing, so is their bread. They knock it out of the park with their salads and have the best ranch dressing I ever had (it's homemade!) Thank heavens that there is still one in Miami Lakes. I will be back.
(4)Dan R.
good food and great soup.
(3)Jackie G.
I'm a regular for lunch. Good soups and sandwiches. I regularly order the Garlic Chicken Melt on a Pita with mushrooms. Comes with fries but I get it with baked potatoe. It's very good. Their dinner rolls are very popular.

If I am going to be in Miami Lakes during lunch hours, I am coming here. The food is fresh and very healthy. If you are watching what you eat, this is the place to come. The plates are large, but I promise you that the calories aren't... They provide for a very nutrient dense meal when you order the salads and if you are watching your carbs, trust me they have something for you too. The staff is good, sometimes a little slow, but that's ok.
(4)Elizabeth P.
The salads are the best, but not very impressed with the other menu items. They have very big portions so if you want to eat light you might want to share your dish.
(3)Alexander S.
Rolls are legendary, delicious soups, amazing fries, pretty much great everything ! Big fan
(4)Ashley M.
I have eaten here a few times for a quick lunch with colleagues. We have never had any major problems with our meal, and the service is always friendly however quite slow. Why come here? The bread and salads. They have some of the best dinner rolls I have had, and the salads are delicious. I have tried some of their other entrees (sandwiches, hamburgers, pasta) and nothing else has enticed me to order it more than once. But the Waldorf salad or the Chicken Walnut salad is to die for. The prices are not cheap for a diner atmosphere (most entrees, salads included, are between $13-16), however the food is plentiful. My colleague and I always share a salad, and have never been charged an extra fee. They even split the salad into two plates for us, at no additional charge. The service is quite slow - if you have a strict lunch policy, you may want to ask for the bill once the food arrives. This will normally keep the lunch well under an hour. The wait normally happens after the food is delivered. Also, letting the waitress know that you are on a schedule will normally speed up the process. They have always been very friendly about it.

The few times I have been here has been mostly because my sister has forced me to come. The food I have had, which I can only remember the last meal, was obviously not very memerable. It wasn't really bad, but I have had better. The main reason I reviewed it so low is because I do not like this place inside. The decor, even though I know its on purpose, reminds me of the beginning of Three Men and a Baby. Its that cheesy late 80's pink and aqau decor.. Don't get me wrong, I love the 80's, but I just feel like the place is old in a bad way. THe times I have beem there its always empty. I dont remember the exact time or days, but the fact that its empty, makes it feel sad inside. Maybe I have just gone on off days. I haven't given up though. I am willing to try it again.

Best chicken salad ever. Try the lite lunch...delicious. Bread is so good too.
(4)Cindy F.
I have been coming here for a very long time and this place has never ceased to provide excellent quality and service. I have never had a bad experience coming here and always leave satisfied. Great food, great family atmosphere and a lot of memories with my own family. 5 stars all the way!

Good for family and business lunch. Excellent sandwiches and the Beverly Hills Cobb Salad is simply an awesome plate that feeds two.
(4)Janessa A.
This has been a staple in the heart of Miami Lakes its pretty decent has a bunch of american food from mouthwatering burgers with these awesome fries, a whole menu by itself of salads and not boring ones and a good potato soup, also have mexican, pizzas, sandwiches I have stir frys which their beverly hills stir fry is amazing this is what I order and its huge. The sweet rolls they give u are soooo good too, it cost the most 13.00 overall its good, fast, and not so pricey.

I've been coming here for years! Beverly Hills Cafe is the kind of place that everyone in town goes to. They have everything from Chicken Parm to Fajitas to really great salads! Your meal always starts off with warm rolls. They're so good, it's tough to only have just one. I've gone through phases where I've stuck with just one thing on the menu, then moved on to something else. My current obsession is their Tropical Salad. I am not a salad person, but this one is special! It has dried fruit, toasted coconut, mandarin oranges, chopped greens and a whole lot of other delicious ingredients topped with their Sweet Island Chutney dressing. It's like a party in your mouth! The salads are HUGE so 2 (even 3) can eat without a problem. The truth is, you really can't go wrong with anything you order here but save room for dessert! Their Tollhouse pie is life changing!!!
(4)Janelle L.
My experience here hasn't been so good the past couple of times. The service was super slow and the sad part was that the restaurant wasn't even full; our waitress had only one table. There's really no excuse for slow service when the place is that empty. However, I have been coming here for years and my overall experience has been pretty good. They do deliver which is always an added bonus. My favorite meal is the philly cheesestake. Their teriyaki steak and yellow rice is also delicious. It's a good place to go to for a quick lunch. They also have a lot of health options so if you're on a diet this would be a good place to try out.
(3)Thomas M.
B'Hills has a huge selection of salads, nice burgers and sandwiches. It's great for lunch as there are many selections and you don't have much excuse to be terribly picky. But I would not go to this place for dinner. It kind of looks like your grand mamas dining room, which is fine but not for dinner. No offence G'Maa... Waiters are good, they have good days and off days depends who you get and what you ask for...but again this is a great place for lunch. The food is fresh, it comes out fast, and reasonably priced. I agree with Stephanie G.s comment about it being COLD in some areas of the dining room.
(3)Todd W.
I would be raving about this place a few years ago but their quality in food and service has been lacking a lot lately. Anyone who has been going to this location for as long as I have know how the food presentation use to be and even their amazing bread rolls have been suffering. It's a real shame but I continue to go back because I enjoy sitting outside that place and enjoying a meal with friends.
(3)Shelly Y.
Excellent meal and staff. We recently moved to Miami lakes and I know we will frequent this restaurant often!
(5)Jordan N.
I don't know... I just wasn't impressed with this chain (or is it not a chain anymore)? They're supposedly well known for the salads. The rolls are good and soft. The food was alright - the capresa salad was good. The other salads my friends ordered didn't really impress. It was just a chain-type of food since you may be easily able to find something similar at another chain. The atmosphere makes me feel like I'm eating in some type of diner and some type of chain restaurant on the low-end of the scale (think Denny's, 15 years ago).
(2)Cheri A.
I should have had a salad based on the reviews. I was excited to see their extensive menu, and decided to go with a sandwich instead of one of their large, plentiful salads. The bread was stale and dry and greasy. How's that possible? The tomatoes were not even ripe and were flavorless. Not to mention one of the slices was the end piece with the stem hole on it. I hate that. I did have a side salad and that was very good. Someone at our table had a fish sandwich and complained that the fish was chewy and dry, overcooked and not that fresh. Given that Miami is not very vegan friendly to begin with, I have to say this is a good place for vegan options, but you'll be limited to salad and sandwiches, and maybe soups on somedays. They also offered a veg burger, but not sure if it was vegan or not. The service was pretty good in the beginning, but once we got our food the waiter kind of disappeared until we asked for the check.
(2)Monica M.
I've been coming to BHC for well over 20 years. My parents even had their first date here back in the 80's! This place has a home-y, yet, 90's vibe to it. Their food is delicious, always fresh. I definitely do not appreciate the 18% gratuity added, because some of their wait staff is very young and not professional at all.
(4)Fernando and Melissa H.
Great salad place!! If you like salads this is your kind of place, they have so many different types of salads to choose from. I have never seen so many salads on one menu before. The times I have gone the service has been good. I usually have dinner here with my mom and we always get a soup and salad combo. The bread they serve before the meal is sooo good as well. This is also a nice place to sit outside in the cooler months or early in the morning when its not to hot. Many people walk to this restaurant from the surrounding areas with there dog and enjoy breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner sitting outside with there pooch. -Melissa Marie
(4)Mannie M.
Have eaten here two times and tried about 10 different dishes and there is not ONE that I dislike, everything seems to taste better than the last thing you eat. The place is not fancy, it kind of reminds me of Denny's but the food speaks for itself.
(5)Francisco F.
Went there with the family to grab dinner. Everything on the table that wasn't a bread roll or salad was incredibly greasy. My wife ordered a grill chicken salad and it had a grill screw in it that she bit into. We told the waitress and she told the manager. You would have thought the manager would have had the common decency to walk over and see what had happened. Nope, just sent the waitress to take the salad away. The place looks very dated, the service was generally slow (even before the incident) and place was empty. I definitely will never go back again.

I always make an effort to go here whenever I'm in Miami. Fantastic Salads, fresh fish, huge portions, pretty good prices. My favorites are any of their salads topped with grilled salmon and a side of their home-made peanut dressing. All of their dressings are home made and everyone that I have tasted are great. The grilled dolphin is good too, as is the shrimp. I avoid the "sea crab" because it is the immitation crab, which I don't care for. The rolls are plentiful and one of the reasons why my friend comes back. Decor is ok, but that is not why I come here. If you can, sit outside and people-watch. 80s music plays in the background, which always leads to "Name that tune/artist" with our party. Service is pretty good and prices are reasonable for what you are getting. Very busy at lunch time and they do have delivery. I have been to the BHC in Plantation and it was not as good as this location. I would come back anytime to this restaurant.

We hadn't been here in a while due to really poor service the last time we went. That time we stopped in for lunch on a nice day and sat outside, only to be inundated with secondhand smoke from the table next to us. That's probably my only complaint. The inside isn't too quiet and the tables are close, but there's no smoke. Outside, even if the weather is beautiful, you're still opening up to some lung damage with your meal. This is the place for really fresh SALADS. I love'em. They're huge, so you might as well pack half of it to go right off the bat. I agree with other Yelpers, they've gotten a bit smaller than they used to be, but they're still plentiful! Their bread rolls and butter are delish and warm. My husband had a burger and was pleased with it, although it was a tad greasy and it made the bun soggy. Our server this time was Martin and he was spectacular. Good service goes a really long way! We'll be back next time the salad craving kicks in.
(4)Christy S.
Love their Salads and Soups. And, you can take home the dressings :)
(4)Carolyn R.
In a nutshell: Salads and Rolls are good and fresh but the other food is a little too greasy for me. Honey Mustard and Peanut dressing are my fav's.
(3)A. H.
This is one of those places that deserves to go out of business but doesn't ... I have lived in Miami Lakes for years and have eaten here at least 40 times.... I can say this with some certainty: their soup of the day is ALWAYS broccoli soup. Their salads are virtually all the same (and taste the same)... Hot plate food is microwaved and bland. So why do I go? I just don't know man...... convenience, to fill my stomach quick, the nice teenage waitresses they hire as servers, the bread (the dinner rolls are very good and hot).... This place has a diner atmosphere and several TV's on the wall. Make sure you arrive with your complete party in tow or else they will make you stand there and wait until your companions arrive. This seems to be a hard and fast rule (even if the place is empty). That's really all I can say.
(2)Deborah N.
Only good thing about it was that it was dog friendly.
(1)Immer R.
The Salads at the BH are of the best in the city. The serve a very generous portion of salads made of the freshest ingredients. Also the make sure you don't run out of dressing as is comes to the table in a little coffee creamer type container. Moving on to the rolls, they are to die for, always served steaming hot with butter on the side.
(4)Alexandria G.
This place is great!! Salad is amazing and there honey mustard dressing is the best in town!! Bread rolls are amazing!!
(4)Lorena R.
We have been eating at Beverly Hills for a very long time. Can't imagine Miami Lakes with out this place. We love the blackened Dolphin Dinner, all the salads are great too. Give them a try you won't be disappointed.
(4)Jennifer C.
Beverly Hills is less than a minute from where I live and I have gone to eat there 5-6 times and have ordered take-out about the same amount of times in the past year. Although their service is good and the servers are attentive, the food is hit or miss. Their salads are great, they're definitely their strong-point. I always order the same thing - their Fajita Salad with steak which comes in a crispy taco shell with grilled peppers, onions, cheese, sour cream, guacamole, and salsa. It's pretty delicious. However, any time I have deviated from their salads, I have left disappointed with the food. I've tried their skirt steak topped with mushrooms, onions, and cheese and the steak was not cooked well. We ordered it medium and it was overcooked and rubbery. The side of vegetables that it came with were practically flavorless and required a ton of salt to even be able to eat. If you eat here, stick with their salads and their bread and you won't be disappointed.
(3)Sara L.
Just tried for the first time this morning. I had the Beverly Hills Breakfast (Eggs, Bacon, Potatoes, and Cantaloupe) comes with Coffee/Tea and Orange Juice for $9.99. It includes complimentary bread. I was really impressed food was great.
(5)Annette P.
Huge fan of BHC! I've been eating here for nearly 28 years. Oh wait, I'm only 27 so how'd that happen? Forget the Math! The menu selections are unbelievable. It doesn't matter what you're in the mood for, you'll find a menu item to satisfy your craving. They have short healthy side menu with several good selections, the alternative casserole is excellent-rice cooked perfectly and salmon, yes salmon, is perfect. They also have over 30 salads to pick from, I've had at least 8 and all were good and oversized portions. They have a burger section, a Mexican section (Mexican pizza and quesadillas are great), a pasta section and more. Ribs and steak, which I never expect to be good at a restaurant unless it's the specialty, are very good here. Ribs are fall off the bone. Service is also exceptional. Quick and with a smile and typically, you will find the owner on site. Oh, and rarely a wait! We're surprised this place hasn't gotten more attention. Maybe I shouldn't post this. Lol!
(4)Richard W.
Ordered the Santa Fa Chicken salad. It was huge and well worth the price. Only issue I had was the section we were in was too busy for the one waitress that was working. Only had one glass of water the entire time there. Also I'm not familiar with why people like them but I was turned off by the fact Dolphin was on the menu. Overall I agree that the decor is dated but the food was outstanding. Would definitely go again in a heartbeat.
(4)Jeanine M.
This place has been here for years. I've come to eat lunch with my mom a few times when I was younger and their soups are great! I came by myself for a quick lunch after a meeting and it seems the service here has gotten pretty bad.. I decided to sit outside because the weather was beautiful but I quickly regretted my decision when I had to wait 20 minutes for someone to finally attend me at my table. I finally got my bread and water. The bread is delicious, the food is in general. I got the Southwest Salad and it was pretty good! I loved the dressing but like I said.. service is slow and no one really seems happy to be there.
(4)Ari N.
An ode to older style restaurants. It feels right out of the eighties or nineties. The menu is huge and sometimes make it tough to decide. The bread is delicious and the portions are huge. Sometimes the staff is not good. They have some waiters that are amazing and some that are lackluster. The food is not five star cuisine, but definitely good for a quick diner type bite.
(3)Maritza S.
It's an ok place. I think their quality has gone down over the years. I always order the Caesar salad. Or the Cobb salad my last time I noticed that the chicken portion of the Cobb salad was very small compared to what it used to be. I think they may be making their portions smaller, but prices the same. This is an almost $15 salad there should be more protein in it . The water needs to be asked for, the waiters don't just tell it. It's gone down, unfortunately.
(3)Pilar M.
The BHC is not gourmet, but it will certainly satisfy a particular tooth...especially if you are one who enjoys the sight of a large portion. I have been to this location several times and after having tried some various dishes my conclusion is it is a good place to grab a bite BUT you MUST learn how to order. Example: Do not expect the California shrimp pasta to come with avocados that are perfectly ripe (or ripe at all, for that matter) for such care to detail is a bit more demanding than this place offers. However, it is a creamy Alfredo-type dish, so if you're into that, don't hesitate. Also, they will gladly change the pasta shape for you to say linguini, penne, etc. Do NOT order the salmon if you are a big salmon fan. I have made this mistake twice and both times, they have broiled it to the point of being too dry. If you just want a simple salad and the heart of the dish (salmon) is staggeringly dull...your meal becomes a disappointment. It is much better to just avoid this altogether and go for any of their strengths...which I would say is any chicken dish or a burger for something more primitive. Chicken parmigiana (when I've seen others order it) always needs more mariana, so ask for extra. Their salads are varied and huge, dressing is always on the side if you're one who prefers that. I'd recommend cheese on the side too. Too many calories and not high enough quality to justify them. Also, excessive. You do not want flavor to be drowned by a single ingredient. The Asian chicken dish is really good...and they are very accommodating with switching out rice for lettuce or anything like that if you want low carb. Speaking of carbs, the bread and butter at the start of the meal is probably the best thing. Warm and sweet pillows with a whipped butter that dissolves in your mouth. Hard to resist. Stick to the basics. The simple food is what they do best. It's not fine dining, but it's pretty good.
(3)Nicole V.
Ok place for a quick bite, salads are huge and fresh. Big issue with cleanliness. I ordered take away and as I waited I could not help but look at freezer behind cashier and small upper refrigerator. Mold all over upright freezer door ; and the fridge with sliding door very dirty. They should really invest in major clean up or better yet make a small investment in a new freezer and fridge. Hope the kitchen in the rear is cleaner.....3 stars is for the food only.
(3)Grisel L.
BHC has been around in Miami Lakes I believe before I was even born. In restaurant years, that it an eternity. BHC serves the local Miami Lakes community, as well as the lunch crowd from the many businesses in the area. You can never go wrong with ordering any salad here. The menu consists of over 10 different salads, which are mega portioned that can easily be shared. My favorite is the classic Crispy Chicken Cobb with a side of honey mustard. Not so light, but its the best salad I've ever had in all seriousness. BHC also offers sandwiches, wraps, burgers and pastas, along with entrees. But my go-to item is always the salad. The bread rolls and sweet butter is also a nice treat and quite addictive. If you are ever in the area around lunch time, I highly recommend coming to BHC. Consistent and comforting!
(3)Kimberly C.
Food was good, waitress was pleasant and the rolls were delicious. Everything was fresh, clean and nicely cut. However, I should have ordered soup since it was freezing in there. I've been coming here for years and wish they would finally give it a 'face lift." A nice little remodeling would do this place some good.
(3)Jenn C.
Complimentary Dinner rolls upon arriving are amazing! My son ordered a cheeseburger wow huge and nicely put together I had a teriyaki rice bowl super yummmm wish it was closer to home! Til next time cafe Beverly Hills !!!
(5)Juliette C.
Love this place for lunch. Their salads and soups are delicious. They have a great variety of salads to choose from and they are quite large if you would like to share them. The servers are very friendly adding to the family oriented ambiance.
(4)Tess O.
Great food. The dolphin fingers were disappointing but the other dishes were delishes. The desserts are huge. Prices are okay. More expensive than anywhere else with a diner atmosphere but the food and service are 100 times better too. 9/10 experience. I'll be coming back to try more plates.

This has been a staple in the heart of Miami Lakes its pretty decent has a bunch of american food from mouthwatering burgers with these awesome fries, a whole menu by itself of salads and not boring ones and a good potato soup, also have mexican, pizzas, sandwiches I have stir frys which their beverly hills stir fry is amazing this is what I order and its huge.

(4)Joe O.
I've been coming here for-e-ver. I'll make it easy for you: bread, soup, anything else and you're set for that day and leftovers the next. They also make some of their desserts in house. Salads are delicious and big enough to feed a small Ethiopian village. You can't go wrong with any soup, order them all. Lunch is packed but well worth it. I can't stop eating here, I crave it. Their menu is so large that you don't have to order the same thing for months.
(5)James P.
This place is good enough to come back every once in a while. The food isn't bad but this very last time I tried a spinach salad and added mahi. I requested the spicy vinaigrette dressing, which was very good. I did enjoy the salad, but don't necessary believe I should pay practically $20 for a salad. The complimentary bread is great, they're brought out warm and with some butter to add. I do have to say the Spinach bites are definitely a must with the honey mustard dip! I will be back but definitely won't be my first choice considering the amount of bang for your buck.
(3)Kara P.
Beverly Hills is near my house and I've been eating food from there for as long as I can remember. Seriously though, they had a fire when I was a kid and were closed for a while to renovate - my family was at a loss when figuring out what to eat because we used to get take out from Beverly Hills at least 3 times a week. The restaurant has quite the extensive menu. Their most popular items are probably the salads, which are huge. The soups are also pretty good, especially when eaten with their warm, delicious bread. A few of the other items I typically order are the Philly cheese steak, potato skins, and Beverly Hills pasta. I also enjoy the broccoli bites, cajun chicken Philly, and occasionally will order a chicken grill (chicken breast sandwich). For dessert, you must try the Tollhouse cookie pie, assuming you are a big chocolate fan. If not, their cookies are pretty delicious. Tip: If you're doing take-out and want a chocolate chip cookie, ask on the phone whether or not they have any so they can be saved. They go quickly and a lot of cookies can be sold during the 20 minute wait time to pick up your order!
(4)Armando G.
This is nice little restaurant that offers a good variety of dishes, however my gf and I typically order their salads. I absolutely love their Buffalo Chicken Bleu Cheese Salad. It consists of greens topped off with fried chicken tenders, red onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, mandarin orange slices, croutons and bleu cheese of course. I tend to drench this delicious creation with their Sweet and sour Bleu cheese or creamy bleu cheese dressing. They also start your meal off with a couple of their rolls served with warm butter; they are great and act as a great sponge to soak up any left over salad dressing you may have. The service is solid, neither great nor horrible.
(4)Nasha W.
Not a bad place for lunch. Upon arriving I was a bit skeptical and a bit let down by the lack of friendly faces. Honestly I wasn't greeted by anyone or even acknowledged. I was very hungry or shall I say on the verge of Hangry. I thought this would surely end up as a 2 or 1 star review. The place is somewhere on the corner of 50s meets 80s. It's a little retro. But the music is great if you like 80s music. I was digging it :-) I agree with other reviews that the place needs a little touch up or a bit of tlc but if you can get past this, the salads are actually good. Where we sat it was also quite chilly so bring a little something to cover up if you're wearing short sleeves (I remember reading in other reviews that it was cold here). But anyhow, the salads. THEY ARE HUGE. I ordered the Chinese salad with fried chicken and it was delightful. It must've been approximately $12 and I could've easily shared this with someone. Honestly I think if you get a soup and a salad, two people can share this and actually have a light lunch at a very reasonable price.
(3)Ana F.
The bread rolls you receive upon arrival are delicious! I usually order the same thing, the Crispy Chicken Salad which i love. All the salads are huge, 2 or even 3 people can eat from just one or you can just take the rest home and they even give you extra dressing! I come back here at least once a month.
(4)Chris P.
Great salads I recommend the crispy chicken cobb salad! In addition, every salad is huge and can be shared with a friend. Okay selection of beers, but again, the place is known for their salads. I would definitely return for some more eats!
(4)Eli G.
The buns are awesome! I don't like how they chop their salad so I ask for it sliced. They always do it. It's a bit pricey for the food. Most of the waiters are young kids. Not really great service. It's an ok place. I really don't love it much, but my husband likes their salads so I come with him all the time.
(3)Jennette P.
Best bread rolls!! The bread always comes out nice and warm with whipped butter. The crispy chicken salad with honey mustard dressing is delicious & a shareable portion. My bf & I alway share the broccoli cheese soup (my favorite not available Fridays) & a salad. All the portions on the menu are BIG & never disappoint. The Bleu cheese burger is also very good & shareable
(5)Jan N.
If you want to drown face down in a bowl of lettuce, then you need to have a Beverly Hills Cafe Salad. They have like a gazillion salads and all are extremely generous portions. There are other things on the menu (burgers, sandwiches, pasta, blah, blah, blah), but salads are their thing. Been coming here for about 15 years and always leaf stuffed (haha, I made a funny). Seriously though, hit it up if you're in the area and are looking for someplace healthy with various options. I know there was another location in South Miami, but it closed a while back. Oh, and the bread is outta control! Word.
(3)Stephanie G.
I will always be a HUGE fan of the Beverly Hills Cafe, no matter where it's located. In my humble opinion, they make the most delicious salads on the face of the earth. My only complaint about this location would be that it was RIDICULOUSLY cold in the dining area. Turn down the A/C people! PS Please, please, please bring the Beverly Hills Cafe back to South Miami, Coral Gables or Downtown Miami. WE MISS YOU!
(5)America C.
They have the most friendliest staff. The food is always fresh and delicious. They have the Best Benedict in town.
(5)Lidice L.
We are having late lunch here today, small cafe in Miami lakes. Old, cozy place, very good service, amazing salad variety, as a matter of fact that's what my husband and I are having and they are very tasty and beautifully presented. Would definitely come back here
(4)Jackie M.
My favorite restaurant in ML! I love everything I have ordered from there. I've had my bridal and baby showers there too. Love, love, love BHC!
(5)Erik G.
Had the white bean soup with turkey sandwich. Very good.
(4)Lissette C.
We were a party of 6 and were seated for 20 min waiting for our drinks. Should of had more waiters/waitresses for today. We walked out and left :(
(1)Abe F.
While the decor and menu haven't changed since the 80s, I can't quite say the same for the quality of the food (or maybe my childhood memories of the burgers and salads are better than the current offerings). Portions are generous, the staff are ok - nothing memorable one way or another. It's better than dining off the side of the Turnpike, but not really a place for a particularly great meal and night out with friends.
(3)Xavier P.
Beverly Hills Cafe. It's a shame that it closed down in the Sunset Place area. Their Beverly Hills pasta is amazing, so is their bread. They knock it out of the park with their salads and have the best ranch dressing I ever had (it's homemade!) Thank heavens that there is still one in Miami Lakes. I will be back.
(4)Dan R.
good food and great soup.
(3)Frank M.
Ur menu sucks ... that simple
(2)Jackie G.
I'm a regular for lunch. Good soups and sandwiches. I regularly order the Garlic Chicken Melt on a Pita with mushrooms. Comes with fries but I get it with baked potatoe. It's very good. Their dinner rolls are very popular.
(4)Krystal S.
Thanks to my trusty Yelp app, I found this spot when I was trying to find somewhere to eat in the area with my best friend after work. WE WERE STARVING (Like always). I had no idea what I was going to eat here, I recalled eating here once or twice when I was much, much younger. All I could remember was that the bread was good, and yes. it. was. The bread rolls were very warm and soft. They bring them out with a dollop of butter and the butter just melted into the roll when I put it on it. So good! I ordered their Buffalo chicken strips with EXTRA blue cheese- I love blue cheese! The food didn't take long and it was pretty good. The blue cheese was so good though, I feel as though some places don't have good blue cheese or ranch, but theirs was great. The fries were seasoned fries and I really liked them too. However, next time I would like to get their Buffalo Chicken Salad or their Southwest Chicken Salad... they both sounded good, and I saw a couple receive their salads and THEY WERE HUGE! Definitely getting that next time. The service was great also. Our server was really sweet, not talkative at all, but, brought out everything promptly.
(5)Farrah S.
From the the fresh bread to the tea, this place is consistent, fresh, and a throwback. Beverly Hills looks like it is fresh out of the 80's, from their music to their decor. Any chicken plate is fabulous, their salads are great (the sweet island chutney dressing is PERFECT), and the soups are robust and rich in flavor. Service can be a hit or miss, but Beverly Hills is the perfect lunch spot.
(4)Richelle P.
Food is great, service is FAST! Salads are HUGE and Jennifer is a great waitress.
(4)Amie M.
The place smells like a retirement center. The food has very low seasoning such as the fried chicken sandwich and cheese steak. I also asked for extra cheese on the Philly cheesesteak sandwich but it did not have extra cheese. The broccoli and cheese soup tasted good however it had some hard chunks in it. When it was time to pay, no one was around! The complimentary rolls were good. Nothing wow'd us so will not be back. Not worth the price.
(2)Allie S.
First time coming here for dinner and I can't complain the food was delicious!!! I ordered a chicken perm sandwich it was bigger the I expected definitely worth the wait and the price, even though they weren't that busy you can tell that they take their time to make the food. The bread rolls here are amazing very addictive as some of the other reviewers have put down as well. I love the old time feel of this place takes you back to when we had diners around. I plan to come here again and try some of their other dishes, saw chicken Cesar salad that looked wonderful.

The bread was great! Freshly baked! I had a sample appetizer which was alright. Every thing was fried and it was over done so hard to eat. My boyfriend had a salmon dish during brunch that he liked. It was good he said.

This place is great! The portions are huge and the salad was great. The service was good. I loved my pasta which was the California shrimp pasta.

Carb addicts everywhere unite!!! There is nothing like their freshly baked bread!!! Trust me. Second best item: the cream of broccoli! So yes, you can enjoy vegetables. It's loaded with chunks of broccoli and cheese..yummy cheese. So, if after you've gorged on bread and the cream of broccoli you have room, try anything on the menu. I dare you to finish it. The portions are HUGE. As a salad lover, I suggest all of them. Their home made dressing makes you want to bathe in cause it's sooooo good!

If I am going to be in Miami Lakes during lunch hours, I am coming here. The food is fresh and very healthy. If you are watching what you eat, this is the place to come. The plates are large, but I promise you that the calories aren't... They provide for a very nutrient dense meal when you order the salads and if you are watching your carbs, trust me they have something for you too. The staff is good, sometimes a little slow, but that's ok.

The salads are the best, but not very impressed with the other menu items. They have very big portions so if you want to eat light you might want to share your dish.

While I have enjoyed several lunchtime meals here for years my favorite thing to come to this restaurant for is the brunch. The food is fresh and always tasty, and the service is efficient and pleasant. I can't say I've tried one single thing on their brunch menu that I didnt like.. the portions are also very abundant. Along wit the fantastic food, the location is pretty convenient also.. right on a main drag and there is plenty of prking out front. The pricing is also a great treat. Just this morning my fiance and I had a lovely brunch here and the bill came to $20. Not bad huh? If you're in the are I would definitely urge you to stop inside... you wont regret it.

I have been coming here for a very long time and this place has never ceased to provide excellent quality and service. I have never had a bad experience coming here and always leave satisfied. Great food, great family atmosphere and a lot of memories with my own family. 5 stars all the way!

Good for family and business lunch. Excellent sandwiches and the Beverly Hills Cobb Salad is simply an awesome plate that feeds two.

I should have had a salad based on the reviews. I was excited to see their extensive menu, and decided to go with a sandwich instead of one of their large, plentiful salads. The bread was stale and dry and greasy. How's that possible? The tomatoes were not even ripe and were flavorless. Not to mention one of the slices was the end piece with the stem hole on it. I hate that. I did have a side salad and that was very good. Someone at our table had a fish sandwich and complained that the fish was chewy and dry, overcooked and not that fresh. Given that Miami is not very vegan friendly to begin with, I have to say this is a good place for vegan options, but you'll be limited to salad and sandwiches, and maybe soups on somedays. They also offered a veg burger, but not sure if it was vegan or not. The service was pretty good in the beginning, but once we got our food the waiter kind of disappeared until we asked for the check.

I've been coming to BHC for well over 20 years. My parents even had their first date here back in the 80's! This place has a home-y, yet, 90's vibe to it. Their food is delicious, always fresh. I definitely do not appreciate the 18% gratuity added, because some of their wait staff is very young and not professional at all.

Great salad place!! If you like salads this is your kind of place, they have so many different types of salads to choose from. I have never seen so many salads on one menu before. The times I have gone the service has been good. I usually have dinner here with my mom and we always get a soup and salad combo. The bread they serve before the meal is sooo good as well. This is also a nice place to sit outside in the cooler months or early in the morning when its not to hot. Many people walk to this restaurant from the surrounding areas with there dog and enjoy breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner sitting outside with there pooch. -Melissa Marie

I've been coming here for years! Beverly Hills Cafe is the kind of place that everyone in town goes to. They have everything from Chicken Parm to Fajitas to really great salads! Your meal always starts off with warm rolls. They're so good, it's tough to only have just one. I've gone through phases where I've stuck with just one thing on the menu, then moved on to something else. My current obsession is their Tropical Salad. I am not a salad person, but this one is special! It has dried fruit, toasted coconut, mandarin oranges, chopped greens and a whole lot of other delicious ingredients topped with their Sweet Island Chutney dressing. It's like a party in your mouth! The salads are HUGE so 2 (even 3) can eat without a problem. The truth is, you really can't go wrong with anything you order here but save room for dessert! Their Tollhouse pie is life changing!!!

My experience here hasn't been so good the past couple of times. The service was super slow and the sad part was that the restaurant wasn't even full; our waitress had only one table. There's really no excuse for slow service when the place is that empty. However, I have been coming here for years and my overall experience has been pretty good. They do deliver which is always an added bonus. My favorite meal is the philly cheesestake. Their teriyaki steak and yellow rice is also delicious. It's a good place to go to for a quick lunch. They also have a lot of health options so if you're on a diet this would be a good place to try out.

I have eaten here a few times for a quick lunch with colleagues. We have never had any major problems with our meal, and the service is always friendly however quite slow. Why come here? The bread and salads. They have some of the best dinner rolls I have had, and the salads are delicious. I have tried some of their other entrees (sandwiches, hamburgers, pasta) and nothing else has enticed me to order it more than once. But the Waldorf salad or the Chicken Walnut salad is to die for. The prices are not cheap for a diner atmosphere (most entrees, salads included, are between $13-16), however the food is plentiful. My colleague and I always share a salad, and have never been charged an extra fee. They even split the salad into two plates for us, at no additional charge. The service is quite slow - if you have a strict lunch policy, you may want to ask for the bill once the food arrives. This will normally keep the lunch well under an hour. The wait normally happens after the food is delivered. Also, letting the waitress know that you are on a schedule will normally speed up the process. They have always been very friendly about it.

The few times I have been here has been mostly because my sister has forced me to come. The food I have had, which I can only remember the last meal, was obviously not very memerable. It wasn't really bad, but I have had better. The main reason I reviewed it so low is because I do not like this place inside. The decor, even though I know its on purpose, reminds me of the beginning of Three Men and a Baby. Its that cheesy late 80's pink and aqau decor.. Don't get me wrong, I love the 80's, but I just feel like the place is old in a bad way. THe times I have beem there its always empty. I dont remember the exact time or days, but the fact that its empty, makes it feel sad inside. Maybe I have just gone on off days. I haven't given up though. I am willing to try it again.

Best chicken salad ever. Try the lite lunch...delicious. Bread is so good too.
(4)Mannie M.
Have eaten here two times and tried about 10 different dishes and there is not ONE that I dislike, everything seems to taste better than the last thing you eat. The place is not fancy, it kind of reminds me of Denny's but the food speaks for itself.

Went there with the family to grab dinner. Everything on the table that wasn't a bread roll or salad was incredibly greasy. My wife ordered a grill chicken salad and it had a grill screw in it that she bit into. We told the waitress and she told the manager. You would have thought the manager would have had the common decency to walk over and see what had happened. Nope, just sent the waitress to take the salad away. The place looks very dated, the service was generally slow (even before the incident) and place was empty. I definitely will never go back again.

B'Hills has a huge selection of salads, nice burgers and sandwiches. It's great for lunch as there are many selections and you don't have much excuse to be terribly picky. But I would not go to this place for dinner. It kind of looks like your grand mamas dining room, which is fine but not for dinner. No offence G'Maa... Waiters are good, they have good days and off days depends who you get and what you ask for...but again this is a great place for lunch. The food is fresh, it comes out fast, and reasonably priced. I agree with Stephanie G.s comment about it being COLD in some areas of the dining room.
(3)Todd W.
I would be raving about this place a few years ago but their quality in food and service has been lacking a lot lately. Anyone who has been going to this location for as long as I have know how the food presentation use to be and even their amazing bread rolls have been suffering. It's a real shame but I continue to go back because I enjoy sitting outside that place and enjoying a meal with friends.

Excellent meal and staff. We recently moved to Miami lakes and I know we will frequent this restaurant often!

I don't know... I just wasn't impressed with this chain (or is it not a chain anymore)? They're supposedly well known for the salads. The rolls are good and soft. The food was alright - the capresa salad was good. The other salads my friends ordered didn't really impress. It was just a chain-type of food since you may be easily able to find something similar at another chain. The atmosphere makes me feel like I'm eating in some type of diner and some type of chain restaurant on the low-end of the scale (think Denny's, 15 years ago).

I always make an effort to go here whenever I'm in Miami. Fantastic Salads, fresh fish, huge portions, pretty good prices. My favorites are any of their salads topped with grilled salmon and a side of their home-made peanut dressing. All of their dressings are home made and everyone that I have tasted are great. The grilled dolphin is good too, as is the shrimp. I avoid the "sea crab" because it is the immitation crab, which I don't care for. The rolls are plentiful and one of the reasons why my friend comes back. Decor is ok, but that is not why I come here. If you can, sit outside and people-watch. 80s music plays in the background, which always leads to "Name that tune/artist" with our party. Service is pretty good and prices are reasonable for what you are getting. Very busy at lunch time and they do have delivery. I have been to the BHC in Plantation and it was not as good as this location. I would come back anytime to this restaurant.

We hadn't been here in a while due to really poor service the last time we went. That time we stopped in for lunch on a nice day and sat outside, only to be inundated with secondhand smoke from the table next to us. That's probably my only complaint. The inside isn't too quiet and the tables are close, but there's no smoke. Outside, even if the weather is beautiful, you're still opening up to some lung damage with your meal. This is the place for really fresh SALADS. I love'em. They're huge, so you might as well pack half of it to go right off the bat. I agree with other Yelpers, they've gotten a bit smaller than they used to be, but they're still plentiful! Their bread rolls and butter are delish and warm. My husband had a burger and was pleased with it, although it was a tad greasy and it made the bun soggy. Our server this time was Martin and he was spectacular. Good service goes a really long way! We'll be back next time the salad craving kicks in.

Love their Salads and Soups. And, you can take home the dressings :)
(4)Carolyn R.
In a nutshell: Salads and Rolls are good and fresh but the other food is a little too greasy for me. Honey Mustard and Peanut dressing are my fav's.

This is one of those places that deserves to go out of business but doesn't ... I have lived in Miami Lakes for years and have eaten here at least 40 times.... I can say this with some certainty: their soup of the day is ALWAYS broccoli soup. Their salads are virtually all the same (and taste the same)... Hot plate food is microwaved and bland. So why do I go? I just don't know man...... convenience, to fill my stomach quick, the nice teenage waitresses they hire as servers, the bread (the dinner rolls are very good and hot).... This place has a diner atmosphere and several TV's on the wall. Make sure you arrive with your complete party in tow or else they will make you stand there and wait until your companions arrive. This seems to be a hard and fast rule (even if the place is empty). That's really all I can say.

Only good thing about it was that it was dog friendly.
