Guchi’s sushi is the best spot in here. The fish is always fresh, tastes very high quality, and overall delicious. The service as well is impeccable, personable, and makes you want to come back! They’re quick as well which is great for a lunch break. I love coming back here, I know I will always enjoy my meal. 10/10 recommend!!

Took a day trip from Aventura to Orlando. I took Premium from Aventura , and Smart seating from Orlando. I suggest Premium both ways, it ultimately most economical. Pricing at Mary Mary restaurant is exorbitant: two burgers with chips and two cocktails came to $90. This includes airport fees ($12-15) and tip at 18%. Premium fare with access to premium lounge is the best bang for the buck. General seating at the stations are a clean, looks welcoming, but insufficient seating. Just as an aside , use Lyft vs taxi, to go into the city: the malls are 18 miles from the station, and all other amenities are 26 miles or more. Taxis charge 12 airport fee, toll fee, processing fee, on top of a 2+ dollar per mile.

I’m so surprised how empty this place usually is given that the atmosphere is too notch, plenty of food options, you can get to it by foot, metro, metro over, trirail or bightline. We love coming here for Stephanie’s gluten free crepes which are 20/10 ❤️❤️❤️

Brightline's Central Fare Food Collective is now a popular dining destination located within the MiamiCentral Station. It is similar to Miami's Julia & Henry's food hall but with a more modernistic decor and design. It is very clean and open. This is great for travelers who will be able to satisfy their hunger as soon ss they get off the Brightline. There are large signs to guide you to the 12 restaurants that have opened here. It has been well thought out. My daughter and I ate at El Turco Express a couple of days ago on Friday and enjoyed the Michelin experience of Turkish food there. There is also Wolf of Tacos who has a very good reputation in Miami for making delicious tacos but they are $5 for a small taco. Peppi's is also located here and serves good Italian food. We plan to go back soon and see what other restaurants are there. There are parking garages available as well as limited street parking.

This place is beyond anything I could have imagined, the food is on the gourmet level and blends so many different flavors at once. It’s truly the best tacos and crepes I’ve ever had! Just go! It’s incredible food and spaced out so you’re never on top of anyone- truly delightful experience !!

Central Fare recently re-opened and the food options are a lot better! So far I’ve tried food from Peel, Cotoita and Stephanie’s Crépes and in all of them the food has been delicious, the prices reasonable and the service good. This place is a great option for lunch or early dinner if you are in the area or before departing on Brightline or Tri-Rail.

Honestly the best place to stop for lunch in downtown. In my opinion, the vendors they have are all individually worth taking the train into Miami just for lunch, the option to hit them all in one sitting makes it a no-brainer. No Uber needed just get off the train and walk downstairs to the food hall.

We had Chad serving us on our trip from orlando to Miami and he made it feel like VIP treatment! So accommodating and sweet and always service with a smile, he went above and beyond. I hope someone sees this review and gives him his flowers because I was not expecting such a friendly face aboard the brightline. 10/10!

My boyfriend and I arrived at the 6:50pm train from Orlando back to Miami on Sunday January 5th and stayed in coach 2. The train back was on the bumpier side, and my boyfriend ended up throwing up in between carts trying to find the bathroom within the first hour and a half of the ride. The two men that we saw working for that coach kept checking in on him to see if he was okay and even brought him a bag of pretzels, water, and ginger ale for his stomach. It was an incredible gesture, one that we greatly appreciated and would love to give them thanks again for the hospitality! Other comments that I feel I should include, the train was very clean, and the ride from Miami to Orlando was pretty smooth, the stops in between tracks were very quick. Although, perhaps for anyone who was getting off in between MIA and ORL it was far too quick, there was a situation where a woman didn't get off the train at the West Palm Station fast enough and had to wait the ride going to Orlando then back to West Palm, so I'd highly suggest to be very prepared to get off the train quickly if you're getting off in between those stations. If you're like me and you're going from MIA to ORL or back then you'll be okay. Thank you again to the brightline employees for trying to make the ride back home as easy as possible for someone with motion sickness ❤️‍🩹

This is my 4th time using brightline and I wanted to take the time to let others know how AMAZING it is! Every staff person I have encountered at the stations (Orlando west palm and aventura) are very nice, friendly, and clearly like their jobs even making small talk with the passengers. The service on the train is great too - yes you have to pay for snacks and drinks but it is good quality and convenient. If you want free you can bring anything you want on the train with you including bottles of water. The trains are clean and comfortable. You can charge your devices at your seat and there are phone call areas and spacious rest rooms on board. I love it - traffic gas tolls challenging parking at airport and concert venues - no thanks. Brightline is the way to go. (They usually have sales too just keep checking and download the app.)

(Translated by Google) They provide great service; I hate driving between Orlando and Miami. The staff is excellent. I hope this line stays, and their cleanliness and organization are excellent. I hope they offer better fares and more comfortable seats over time. They're currently made of hard plastic. Overall, very good! (Original) Prestan un gran servicio, detesto manejar entre Orlando y Miami. Excelente el apoyo del personal. Ojala esté para quedarse esta línea y sus condiciones de limpieza y orden son excelentes. Espero que con el tiempo ofrezcan mejores tarifas y la comodidad de los asientos. Son de plástico rígido. Overall, very good!

I absolutely loved the first experience! I took the train down from Orlando to Miami and back. On the way back I met Robert our coach attendant. His customer service was exceptional. He is attentive, patient, professional, kind and cool! He made a good experience GREAT! Please recognize him for doing such a great job representing the Brightline brand.

Just wanted to give a shoutout to Cody who was working guest services in Ft Lauderdale March 14 at 10:30 pm. He went above and beyond expectations to help me and I want him to know it was greatly appreciated! Cody is a valuable asset to Brightline with his positive attitude and willingness to help others. I have no doubt that he will continue to excel in his position and make significant contributions wherever he goes. 5 star service Cody!!

The staff at the check-in desk was super helpful. 🔟☆ ... BUT crippled, old, aged & infirm can't use the train. Loading zone area trying to park the car for the 20 minutes to go in and have the staff help me create a ticket. IT'S TERRIBLE. How on earth is this place handicapped accessible? What about people with canes and walkers? Those with the blue handicapped placard. People with a bad back, a cane, COPD on oxygen. They can't park their car, close enough to actually get into a train.

We traveled on Brightline twice and were very impressed. Starting w the staff. All except one person were super attentive, well trained, and really into their jobs, which is really nice to see. The “first class” service is nice. The regular service is fine without the extras. The rides to Boca and Palm Beach were painless and seemed quick. Everything seems clean and well organized. I really like this train as a travel option and am looking forward to the addition of the Orlando route.

Had a great experience like always! I just want to give a suggestion that may make a big difference and save lives.. On the train tracks through out the cities place screens so that from the intersections people actually see the train coming from a distance on the screen and then they do not begin to assume it's just the gate that is busted or the train that its out of service & on all reality the train is. During our trip on our way back we experienced the train stop at an immediate emergency stop, which was due to a person that wasn't paying attention and decided to go around the gates & risk there life but others aswell. 💙#OneLove

It’s an amazing new station and it’s very clean. They are pretty expensive in comparison to Amtrak or Tri-Rail. You pay for the amenities. The premium is definitely worth the price since you get a free drink and snack.

World’s best train operator. They’ve managed to do what nobody else in the US has, and they’ll become bigger than Amtrak before 2030 for sure, GO Brightline!

JP at the Miami Station transit was very helpful and very kind to us. He went out of his way to help us on our journey. He went above and beyond to help us and does his job with great manner. He helped us find our phone that we left in a cab. He offered us a ride to the miami airport from the station to get our phone back. He is honorable and helpful great person. God bless him. I do appreciate his help.

We going ride for polar express train for the first time by brightline! My daughter and her friend amaze with all the facility since we enter the station at west palm beach. Our attendance on that time ie Natalia, she’s very helpful about all information we ask about polar express like how we check ini, how long we will ride and how to comeback to brightline again back to west palm beach etc. We can’t forget all the journey that we took with brightline and polar express. We love it ❤️

I took the 3:48 train today to Miami and had the pleasure of having Marcellus as my server. All I can say is give that man a raise! He was fabulous & very informative. The train ride was wonderful as well.

3rd time on the Brightline from WPB to MIA. The Brightline experience is the best. We had premium tix, great lounge experience, great ride on the train. The train, including the bathroom, are spotless. Seats so comfy. Staff (everyone from security to people on the train) are so friendly - they make the trip. Free ride to MIA (just to them generously). Can't beat it! It is the best way, IMO, to get to MIA airport.

Love the central location and the variety in things to eat. La Estacion is delicious and a perfect power lunch spot, also great happy hour specials. Also I always fill up on Rosetta or Can when I'm there. Glad to have this in our neighborhood !

What an amazing place! This food hall has opened with several great food options and much more are coming soon. I recommend Patagonia Flavors for a great salad bowl and chick fil-a for a great chicken sandwich.

When it’s open it offers amazing delicious options! Going on Brightline from West Palm Beach to Miami this weekend and looking forward to enjoying all Central Fare has to offer only to find it is closed on the weekend! Wow! I was letting everyone know in the lounge and on the train to make sure and stop by and eat at Central Fare.. especially since it was pouring rain and Bayside wasn’t an option.. we were all going down for the Super Bowl meetings . I will say when it’s open it’s fabulous! Every price point and all food types are available! When open definitely don’t pass it by! I hope during Season they will be open at least on Saturday!! Please consider.. I highly recommend!
