Some restaurants do farm-to-table like a marketing gimmick—slap “local” on the menu, charge $6 for a tomato, and call it a day. Ol'days in Midtown actually means it. This breezy, sunlit café feels like stepping into a friend’s kitchen—if that friend happened to be an Argentine chef with a knack for fresh ingredients and a patio that opens up onto a walkable city street.
The menu leans wholesome but never boring. Think thick-cut avocado toast on sourdough that tastes like bread, not an Instagram prop. The empanadas are golden, flaky, and properly stuffed, and the steak-and-eggs is the kind of breakfast that reminds you why Argentina takes its beef so seriously. And if you’re the type to judge a place by its coffee, Ol'days passes with flying colors—smooth, strong, and made with the kind of care that suggests they’d rather close than serve a bad cup.
Service is unhurried but warm. This is the kind of spot where you linger over a second cortado and actually consider reading a book instead of your phone. While Miami brunch spots tend to skew chaotic, Ol'days keeps it refreshingly low-key.
It’s not trying to be trendy. It’s just good. And in a city obsessed with the next big thing, that’s worth slowing down for.
