MLK Restaurant

So I had to leave a review because of all of the "disgruntled" reviews if you will. If you're looking for a "fancy" restaurant like KeKe's in Orlando, this is not it. If you're looking for something "chic" like Another Broken Egg in Pines, this is not it. If you're looking for something equivalent to your grandmothers breakfast on Sunday morning, baby it doesn't get any better than this.

While the two aforementioned restaurants may be bigger and a little more "upscale", their food in no way shape or form compares to MLK. MLK is like walking into your grandmothers house and seeing all your cousins waiting for the food to be done. You all may complain that it's taking awhile but when it comes no one has time to complain because you're too busy stuffing your faces.

Yes parking is not ideal. Yes the restaurant is a whole in the wall but you will not be disappointed about the food. I guarantee you that!!

So don't pay attention to rest and try the best breakfast you'll probably find in the "not so good neighborhood".

The MLK restaurant is located in the Liberty City section of Miami. We took the metro from Fort Lauderdale and it is very easy to access. We took the MLK exit off the metro and walked a couple of blocks and there was the historic restaurant. Service was outstanding and the food was very good, as expected. We opted for the Chicken and Waffles and it was very tasty. If you are familiar with African-American southern cooking you will not be disappointed.

I felt like I was eating my friend grandma food. When I was younger my friend grandma would cook us breakfast every morning. So fresh and good presentation, even when you order for delivery.

The restaurant is a bit dated but then again that perhaps is the appeal. If you are a fan of African-American art you will love the decor as artwork is plastered on the walls or wherever you can hang anything. Also, if you are a fan of Dr. King and President Obama, which I am, you will love the pieces shown. They are one of a kind and very monumental in reflecting pride in the African-American culture. The prices are very reasonable and there is plenty of parking. One other important note is even though the menu is diverse, they close at 1pm.

It was my first visit there and I must say that our meal was delicious. I call myself ordering the chicken and waffles and I actually finish the whole thing ????. My cousin had the boil fish and she finished all of her food, too. I love to see a busy place but most in importantly it was good to see former schoolmates.
