   I went to la Fresa Francesa since I saw many good reviews, 600 reviews with 4.7 Stars, so I went with lots of high expectations for the food. We had the Foie gras pastelitos which came with guava paste and a pastelito. I wouldn't recommend it (The dish), I did enjoyed the fusion between Cuban a French on this specific plate, but the Foie gras flavor was simply not there, it's a $20.00 appetizer plate so I was expecting to be blown away. Now, we did had their special for the night, which was a huge boneless ribeye which was delicious that came with two sides the duck fat potatoes and the corn perfect for sharing, (it might sound expensive, but a smaller ribeye at Capitol Grill will cost a bit more with zero sides) I did enjoyed this plate a lot. The drink menu it's not badly prices for being a restaurant although I was expecting more affordable options due to the location/area. They provide a very good service, you feel welcome from the moment you open the door ,you are greeted by the team and everyone is very attentive making sure you are good and nothing is needed which I think is the main reason of such high rating 4.7 Stars by 600+ reviewers. I will definitely go back to try their regular menu items as well other appetizer to get a feel of what their cuisine is all about. Thank you !!

   A quaint French bistro in a Hialeah strip mall! Don't let the location fool you. The food, service and ambiance are excellent! They have developed an interesting fusion of French and Cuban. We had their Miami Spice Lunch Menu which offers full size portions of some of their signature dishes. It takes time to get your food, but we enjoyed chatting and looking at the decor. Great coffee and crepes too! We'll be back!

   Tried the Miami Spice lunch menu which presented good options. Food and service were good. Good value. Salty butter crepe was well made. Will go again.

   We wanted to dine here after hearing about it from friends. Our reservation was for Brunch on a Sunday and after we arrived we were seated after about a 10 minute wait. The restaurant is small; three areas including the waiting area and the tables are very close together. Our reservation was at 1:30 and it seemed filled to capacity. The service was a bit slow and our server seemed a bit out of temper at times when we had requests (maybe they were short-staffed?). We had the meat croquettes, egg cocottes as apps, the hanger steak and wild mushroom crepe for entrees, and Nutella/banana crepe and chocolat pot de creme for dessert. The standouts here were the eggs which had the perfect balance of eggs, cheese and truffle oil and a nice semi-runny consistency. The steak was also nicely done to medium rare and very tasty. Both desserts were excellent. The pot de creme had bits of hazelnuts (I would have preferred a bit more) and flakes of salt (I would have preferred a bit less). The banana crepe was perfection with the right balance of Nutella, bananas and powdered sugar. Overall a nice neighborhood restaurant.

   Beautiful decor,excellent staff. The food is very good although a little pricey for the meals. Bathroom was out of order and unwelcoming. Will return since I do believe the place is a wonderful change in the area. Sincerely hope management takes care of the bathroom issues.
