Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Excerpts

One of my favorite go to spots in Miami! Even though I’ve been to most carrot express in Miami this location is always a favorite of mine. I always get a paradise açaí bowl and it is always made with perfection. The atmosphere is always very clean and the staff very pleasant.

This was my second visit to this location, and overall, I’m a fan of what The Carrot Express offers. The menu has a great variety of healthy, fresh options, which isn’t always easy to find when you’re looking for something quick and nutritious. That said, the pricing is definitely something to be aware of. While the quality of the food is high, this is still a fast-casual concept. It’s not the spot to grab a quick lunch if you’re trying to stay under $20. Wraps easily exceed that price point. During this visit, I ordered the Skinny Green Smoothie, which was very good but came in at $12. My husband had the Poke Bowl Wrap, priced at $23. It did include a Cilantro sauce that complemented the wrap nicely, but drinks are not included, which pushes the total even higher. Another drawback is the counter-service tipping setup. Suggested gratuities start at 18%, which feels steep for an order-at-the-counter experience, especially when that’s typically the baseline for full-service dining. I’m giving this location 4 stars because I truly appreciate having healthy, quality options available. However, the high prices and tipping expectations are what ultimately kept this from earning a fifth star

Disney is incredible. She helped a lot and made our dining experience great. We got the pick a pair lunch menu. Chicken-Cado ciabatta and sweet potato fries. Will be back soon!
