Finished touring the beautiful Vizcaya Estate, and decided to stop by for a bite to eat from the on site cafe. What a wonderful treat! The sandwiches sold even if at a touristy price, they are well worth it. Flavor abound with great execution. We ordered the Chicken Panini and the Steak Panini, which had the option of a garden salad or chips. The pesto sauce on the chicken panini was perfectly balanced with rosemary. The steak had cilantro, aioli sauce, caramelized onions and even a small layer of potato crisps! The bread was fresh and delightful! The perfect meal after a wonderful tour!

This is a cafe set outside and near the garden grounds of the museum. I would say it's a pretty decent reward and respite from the brutal Florida climate. I highly recommend the Vizcaya blended iced tea with their syrup added on the side. They also have a few souvenirs that you can pick up at this store. I really wish the oasis/swimming pool portion of the museum of open and renovated as well, because it would have been a really special experience to be able to dip your toes in the water and drink some tea.
