A South Beach cafe on Washington Avenue serving guava French toast by morning and cocktails with cheese curds until 2 am.

Good for a fairly priced brunch or a late snack and a drink with friends. The trade-off: it's a party-booking lounge as much as a cafe, and the Wednesday hours don't line up between sources.

The breakfast plates

Start with the Sweet Dreams Guava-Stuffed French Toast at $16, thick sourdough filled with guava cream. That's the most Miami thing on the menu. Reviewers keep naming the Belgian waffle, $12 plain, as light and airy, and the Smoked Salmon Summer Bowl at $16 is the lighter pick. The Chimichurri Steak & Eggs tops out the list at $26, and the plates come with toast. For South Beach, these prices sit on the reasonable side, which helps explain the 5.0 from about 500 Google reviews. Breakfast starts at 9 am every day.

After dark on Washington

Most nights it stays open until 2 am, midnight on Sunday, and the room turns into a lounge. The shareables run until close, except the Molcajete Shrimp Tostones. Battle of the Cheeses ($15) pairs Wisconsin cheese curds with Venezuelan tequeños, and one reviewer called the curds the best they'd had. Cuban Nachos ($17) and jumbo wings in guava BBQ or mango habanero ($16) fill out a table. Espresso martinis get a mention too. It's a calmer option than the clubs a few blocks over, but it's still South Beach at midnight, so expect energy.

Parties and the odd Wednesday

A lot of the business here is groups: birthdays, rehearsal dinners, corporate nights and holiday parties, plus a catering side. They also throw themed nights, including a Halloween costume party. The site recommends booking a table ahead, and with group events in the mix, that's worth doing on weekends. One thing to check: Google lists Wednesday as closing at 3 pm, while the website says 10 pm. Call before you plan a Wednesday dinner. The number is on their site and Google listing.

They recommend booking ahead, especially since group parties take up tables on busy nights.

Wednesday hours differ between Google (3 pm close) and their site (10 pm), so call before a Wednesday visit.
