“This was my first time to this restaurant, I ordered over the phone and young lady was very nice and took my order correctly. Pick up was also a breeze. My only complaint and not really a complaint is my coffee was too dark after I had order it very light but overall everything was great.“

“Super petit restaurant à Little havana. Vous pouvez commander viande, poisson… et manger dans une superbe ambiance. La serveuse Liudmila est très sympathique et vous conseille . Nous avons pris un plat de poisson . Vous mangerez dans une ambiance musicale cubaine . Demandez à manger à la terrasse c’est plus sympa et moins bruyant que le bar“

“What a wonderful experience - highly recommend sitting at the bar, the staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. Big shout out to our server Israel. Some of the best cocktails I've ever had, and not super pricey considering the quality and service. Tried several small plates and everything was excellent. Lively atmosphere as well.“

“Went to this restaurant about two weeks ago and I must say I thought the food was fantastic and full of flavour! The chicken and black beans especially were lovely. I also received good service from Johana, who was very friendly and also gave me a good cocktail recommendation! I'm definitely coming here again.“

“It is a small place, but the food is very delicious. There was a long line to get in but it is worth it. The tables are a bit small since they are only made for 3 people, but other than that a good place located in Little Havana.Parking: The parking lot was very full, it took us a long time waiting for another car to come out so we could park.“

“My parents invited me here for my college graduation and I loved it. Yiset and Belkis were super nice and provided great customer service. The manager always made sure we were fine as well as the servers. I loved the environment and we never had to ask for anything or wait for a waiter to come by yiset and belkis were always available. The music was great and the food was one of the best“

“We dined here for lunch while visiting the Doral area. Service was good although we had some challenge communicating in English. The mgr assisting us. Great value for the entrees offered. We had Pallomilla steak, grilled chicken with morros rice, tostones and yuca. It was nicely prepared but I prefer raw onion rather than cooked onion with my steak. Service was fast and restaurant was clean with easy vibe. Please note they add 18% gratuity to your check when submitted so don’t make the error in double tipping unless you’re compelled to do so.Parking: Pay by street parking app.“

“Literally some of the best for you I've ever had in my entire life! If you're looking for authentic Cuban food, stop scrolling, and go here immediately. You may have to have a small weight, but it will be well worth it. The prices are low, the quality of food is high, there's nothing more that you could ever ask for in a restaurant. Do yourself a big favor, and go here multiple times.“

“We came in for a birthday party (of 40 people or so) to this place. It was my first time there.They hd live music. The atmosphere was vibrant, the servers very nice, cordial and accommodating. We had several plates to share to all the tables, and I have always given a pass and the benefit of the doubt to a restaurant for any lack of quality of the food when visiting on a party, since it is kind of rough for the kitchen/servers to bring the food to everybody with a hugh consistency in presentation , temperature and flavor. Each and every one of the dishes were exceptional!!. Short Ribs Taquitos, Local Ceviche, The Chorizo Croquetas, Branzino in a coconut sauce and the Churrasco....boy oh boy!!!....I can't wait to go back. Highly recommended.“

“Just landed to Miami and had to check this place out. Place is huge great to bring the entire family, if you want to sit on the benches they are also available with quick service for both. The entire staff here were super friendly. I enjoyed my cafe con leche and tostada so much. The orange juice was delicious. If you live near by you have to check this place out. If you're visiting this just be your 1st place to come. The prices here are great.“

“We were in the mood for Cuban food. My stepdaughter and her boyfriend suggested we try this place. I will admit I was a little apprehensive at first, but when we got there, what a fun, whimsical and eclectically decorated place. All reflecting the Cuban heritage. The restaurant seating is outside. Under canopies that have been painted reflecting the old country back in Cuba. The service staff were friendly and attentive and took our orders promptly. They even had a band playing old Cuban favorites. I will tell you the food was amazingly good and they serve a lot, almost enough for two people on one plate. Part of the fun was the fact that everybody got a different kind of plate size and style, different and fun. Just a heads up, they don't serve beer or wine, but they allow you to bring your own and they'll even give you a bucket of ice to keep it cold. I could go on and on, but my best advice is for you to go check them out. You won't be disappointed. A very fun experience. The food is delicious. you'll leave that place with a full belly, a smile on your face, And a memorable experience.“

“One of the last places we ate at in Miami. Sat outside with a beautiful view. My Guava Mojito was bomb! The table ordered various food to share. We got the Conch Fritters (my favorite), Smashed Avocado (my second favorite), Spinach Empanadas, Chicken Fricassee Empanadas, and Coconut Shrimp.I highly recommend trying this place out! The selection is very fun!“

“Visiting from LA. I googled Best Cuban Restaurant. This was the only place that came up 5-stars in the area.I'm like ok. Worth a shot. Walked in, everyone was super friendly and smiling. I explained I was from out of town and asked for guidance (I'm not Cuban) and they were more than happy to offer several things.All food was great, very flavorful and interesting. I had the arroz campesino and tostones. With a new thing they are offering, a milanesa with ham and melted cheese on top. Sounds odd but was actually really good (and huge) seriously, get this for 2-4 people.Will definitely come back when I'm in town.They also make their own fresh OJ. Get some.“

“This place is amazing! Wonderful entertainment and the food is superb. Think Chinese/asian meets Cuban. We had The papas bravas, crispy gyozas and Octopus (btw the octopus was OUT OF THIS WORLD - think egg foo young from a Chinese restaurant, but octopus - this dish was by far my favorite and blew me away from a creativity standpoint)For main, I had the Sea Bass, perfectly cooked and the avocado poblano puree was such a nice touch. My husband had the seafood fried rice and it too was amazing!My only critique is that the wait staff is spread a little thin and so service is not as attentive as I think it should be for the prices you are paying, but this is a unique and amazing experience, we will definitely be back“

I had some of the best drinks I’ve ever had here and they have the best cocktails in Miami!Ordered the world famous ball and chain mojito, call me a cooler, and the passion Fountaine.Topped it off with their delicious guava empanadas.Enjoyed these drinks and treats while a live and engaging band was performing in the background as well.The space is huge and filled with history and culture. Love the outdoor space on the back especially the grand stage.The whole place had a fun and friendly vibe and the service was great and thoughtful.“

“Excellent! The potato cake with cheese was rich and juicy, it seems very normal but the food is as if we were at a feast. The cheese cake was very juicy and rich. The ground beef is very delicious. Excellent Service, the woman recommends many things to us, one of which is the guava cake with cheese. The atmosphere doesn't matter because it's a food truck but I'm going to put it with the quality that's all delicious and excellent. It was excellent for us. Thank you!“

“Shining spot for the area.In a place, Miami, with a lot of competition for a great Cuban food place, this takes a top spot. Great menu, presentation, and top of the line flavors. Food tastes delicious, fresh, and like they just made that just for you. Nice place to visit with family and friends. The outdoor area has a lot of tables and a large screen to watch sports.“

“Great food, very attentive service and reasonable prices! We were looking for a Cuban meal while spending one night in Miami, and found La Rosa. We had a house salad, the shrimp, and a pork chop. They all had great flavors and husband said it was the best pork chop he'd ever had.“

“La Viña is a hole in the wall that offers the old cuban Barrio experience. Clean, friendly service, family atmosphere. Affordable but cash only. Cuban food is delicious, generous servings. Today I went for breakfast, wasn't too happy with my Viña tortilla. It had too much potatoes and scarce on chorizo, ham and veggies. Coffee needed heating which is my pet peeve ?. Better next time I guess.Parking: Parking is a little tight but can always find a spot“

“They may not need another positive review, but here it is: if you want authentic Cuban food with waiters who will also most likely have an authentic thick accent and who may even help you discipline your malcreado child isn't polite then eat here. My 88 year-old Cuban American mother approves.“

“If you're a fan of croquetas such as myself, "Dos Croquetas" is absolutely a must-try when visiting Miami. Some might ask "what exactly is a croqueta?". In simple terms, they are about the same size of a mozzarella stick, deep fried and usually filled with béchamel sauce, mashed potatoes, cheese, and meat. In fact, the options are endless with thousands of customizable creations. They are a very popular side/appetizer in the Latin culture and are a great quick snack to eat on the go. Located directly on 8th St (Calle Ocho) in between SW 15th & 16th Ave. in the heart of the Little Havana neighborhood of Miami, this place has been dishing out delicious croquetas since early-2024. I came here on a whim (during the afternoon of Sunday 3/17/2024 at 1:30pm) as I was craving a small bite and this place absolutely delivered. As far as the exterior of the building, it was quite easy to find due to the colorful array of forest green with a splash of pink and yellow on the awning. The interior brings that same colorful artwork which truly give this place a Miami vibe. Their menu offers not only Cuban craft croquetas (in 10 different flavors) but also sandwiches, sides, breakfast (served until 4pm), and Dulce dessert bites. They also carry craft shakes to cool you off on the sweltering hot & muggy Florida days. Since this was my first time trying their food and didn't want to go too overboard before dinner, I ordered just (1) of the "305". This croqueta had Cuban-styled picadillo , sweet plantains, and queso blanco with their signature dale sauce. Total price, only $2.20 before tax. Service was quick and my snack was ready in just a couple minutes. As far as the taste, this absolutely hit the spot for me. Crunchy on the outside while warm, cheezy, and savory on the inside, this was absolutely delicious and actually tasted like nothing I've ever tried before. They offer so many other delectable croquetas including "Medianoche" (pork, ham, & swiss), "Mexican Street Corn", "Creamy Spinach", and much more. They have very respectable hours being opened Sunday-Thursday from 10am-10pm and Friday-Saturday from 10am-12am. With the exceptional service, prime location, great atmosphere, and reasonable prices, I am giving the Little Havana "Dos Croquetas" a perfect five stars.“

“This was my first time here. I was in town because I missed my flight. The receptionist at the hotel recommended this spot because their menu was extensive. I enjoyed my time here. They gave sooooo much food. I wanted a good espresso. They brought out some pan cubano....so good with butter. They took my order fast. I was here on Friday morning. I ordered an omelet, which came with café con leche, and some Cuban hash browns. Lots of food. They have a bathroom and outdoor seating.“

“Overall good dinner. The service was kind, timely, and professional. The food was comforting and flavorful. A nice homecooked meal, and not as greasy as other cuban restaurants I have been to. My Pollo a la plancha was a little overcooked, and the flavor a bit tart. Also the mariquitas were stale, and the sauce did not help. Will be back for their daily specials, their fricasse de pollo was really good!Edit: there simple breakfast options are great! Cafecito was a little sweet, but the tres golpes was great! The plantain was not salty alllwing for the cheese, meat, and egg to really shine.“

“This cute hole in the wall cafe was close to wynwood where we stopped to grab a quick breakfast before a museum visit. When we got settled at the bar, I noticed the server was in your cell phone not acknowledging us. She finally brought us our menus and went back to her phone. When she was giving us attention, she was pleasant, but being a service industry professional, I can't stand my server being on their cellphones. But food was great, the older Hispanic ladies were throwing down on the grill and we knew it was going to be good. I got a milkshake and the young lady made it from scratch with some things she grabbed from the cooler. The prices were phenomenal. For both of us to enjoy breakfast, we paid about $25. Which is unheard of in dade county lol.“

“No frills Cuban restaurant with walk up window for take out orders! Food was good portion inexpensive but a little bland which could probably of been corrected with salt and pepper but I got take out and forgot to ask for it! Mainly Spanish is spoken here with some broken EnglishParking is plentiful - lots of other Cuban Restaurants in this area! Would go again and just request more spices on my meal !Parking: In a strip mall easy parking!“

“The food at this particular Sergio’s was bad. The white rice has been mixed with older rice. And I asked to get a different rice and it came out the same with raspa!! My husband asked for a milanesa steak without the ham and of course it came with the ham. Another couple in a booth had to be moved cause there was a roach by their booth. I personally will never go to Sergio’s in Doral food was not quality nor clean atmosphere. They can do better“

Their attentiveness and friendly demeanor made me feel right at home, adding an extra layer of enjoyment to my meal.And let's talk about the prices! With such high-quality food and service, I expected the prices to be steep, but I was pleasantly surprised by how affordable everything was. Dining at Cuba Lives felt like a luxurious experience without breaking the bank.Overall, I can't recommend Cuba Lives Restaurant enough.

“Found this place when I was putting gas in my car by the Wawa around the corner & when I tell you that this restaurant is an absolute gem... located in a small plaza in the corner of the building by the stairs, I walked in here curious of what they were offering. Great thing is that all their food is fresh and ready to serve, they put it on a to-go plate so you can leave right away or eat-in. Honestly, I couldn't decide on what to get because everything looked so delicious, so I decided to go with white rice, shredded beef and fried plantains. I had to sit down and tear it up because I was hungry... so why not. All I'm going to say is that I had to order a second plate to-go for later today & decided to try something else out. If you are by the area or if it's close to you, this is a must go-to restaurant if you want to be full and satisfy all your hunger needs. This is a hidden gem for sure and those who have had it know what I'm talking about! This place smacks!!!“

“We had amazing food here.By the looks of this restaurant from outside, we were reluctant to go in but we had incredible food here.Churrasco was cooked to perfection for all orders: medium and medium well.I usually don’t eat the rice but we all finished our rice and side beans.Tostones and fried yuka was freshly cooked and crispy.All 3 of us finished everything on our plates and it was well worth the calories.We also had fresh orange juice. My only regret is not to order the homemade dessert.The owner Alex is also the cook and his food is the best Cuban food I’ve had in Miami. I can’t wait to try other stuff in his menu.“

“The bakery items are great. But, I’m a customer of your bakery in Little Havana on Sw 8th street. You are sitting on a gold mine but you REALLY REALLY need more cashiers and more help behind the counter. I was just there to pickup last minute party platters. There was a line. Lots of tourists and locals But service was super slow. People were walking out. People were waiting to pay. There was even a customer he came to pickup a huge sheet cake and the bakery had no box. The guy had to take it to Ft. Lauderdale without a box? Are you guys serious? How do you guys not have a box for such a huge cake order? The cashier was busy helping fill orders thus the line of people waiting to pay. You must improve this. I thought you should know.“

“So quick & convenient! All done through your phone, loved it & really close to my office. The food was very good, croquetteas were great, I had a medianoche which was also great, my husband had a classic Cuban and unfortunately it had very little meat so not as great but maybe just a fluke, overall a really good meal, will definitely be back & try again.“
