Discount Cuban Food. Three of us ate for $30 in total ... not too bad. Coffee, rice, beans and maduros were absolutely wonderful. Mains, soups and baked goods were meh. On the plain meat I got served for my main course (Liver with onions and green peppers), I forgot about the hot sauce on my table. I have little doubt that hot sauce would have helped a lot. * * * Arahi's is on the eastern fringe of Little Havana. Go west on Calle Ocho and you hit the epicenter of the Little Havana tourist zone. This part of Calle Ocho is to be avoided like the plague. Go farther west and you are in Cafe Versailles and La Carreta land. Once again Cuban paradise has been restored. * * * You are not here for legendary Cuban. You go to Havana Harry's for that. You are not here for portions that are massive beyond massive beyond massive. Again you go to Havana Harry's for that. You are here for everyday Plain Jane Cuban at an attractive price. The place is 2/3 full most of the time - which is pretty good. Nearly all of the customers are old Cubans. There is not a tourist to be seen. The menu is written in illegible handwriting on a plastic board. Bring your reading glasses. Bring your willingness to take random guesses as to what the more incomprehensible lines actually mean. But there is more to like than to dislike. If you ate here regularly, you would find the main dishes they have here that are actually pretty good. * * * If you go to one and only one Cuban restaurant in Miami, Arahi's bakery shouldn't be it. If live in Miami, you are not made of money, and the rent for your apartment is killing you, Arahi's looks better and better. read more

I have LITERALLY been coming to this establishment since 2005, when I was a baby associate at a public accounting firm on Brickell and did not know a lick of Spanish - never mind that I am born and raised here in South Florida. . From the early visits where I would point and learn what everything was called to ten years later living in Lil Havana to this past Sunday at 530a - EVERYONE I HAVE EVER DEALT WITH has not only been gracious with my more than gringa accent and butchering español... they provide THE BEST service (despite some of the reviews below) and the carne pastelitos, coco & guava & guava n cheese pastries, jamon & bacalao croquetas and last but certainly not least papas rellenas ARE ALWAYS SPOT ON. Now?! You may ask?! How does this Gringa that doesn't know at this point only un poco habla español be able to give them a ***** rating ?! Because, folks... I am a self-certified foodie AND?! in the past 16.5 years that I have been frequenting this establishment... you bet I have had more than enough other restaurants, Versailles obviously included... to compare them to. I literally drove from South East Boca / Deerfield Beach allllllll the way to 8th to drive alllll the way back to Fort Lauderdale because 1) north of Miami is lacking a great Cuban bakery AND 2) the ones north of Miami don't even open to 6:00a and 8:00a on a Sunday... and, I needed to be at my destination at 630a. While there were three people in front of me- Madeline knew how to handle all three of them AND me included ... with patience and ease... I love this place and I would out them up against any other place... nothing beats their bacalao croquetas and their coco pastelito and I would even venture to say their carne pastelito / papa renella & even their jamón croquetas (sorry, I don't eat it) is as good AND if not better than Versailles. *sorry not sorry about that. 100% Jordsified #ThatsMyByte read more

I was with one of my team mates last week and they mentioned they had never had Cuban food in Miami. This needed to change and fast. So we started our morning with breakfast from Arahi's bakery. Authentic and in the heart of Little Havana The mood was set with chickens crossing the street from where we parked, in front of the venue was an older man playing guitar and singing. We walked in and got in line, the ordering is much like a cafeteria or classic deli, "almost" everything on display in deli glass encasements. If you don't speak Spanish, learn to or get good at pointing because this is super authentic and some of the staff do not speak English. Make sure you come for the croquettes, the empanadas, papa rellenos (potato balls deep fried with meat filling) the pastries are heavenly (guava and cheese, coconut, flan) the Cubano sandwich, the cafecito (Cuban espresso, black and sweetened with Demerara sugar during brewing) AKA jet fuel. Fresh juices, Any of the house specials - vaca frita, chicken soup) And the price point is beyond reasonable .... This is your best start to the day for Cuban when visiting Miami or anywhere in the USA for that matter read more

I used to live 100ft away yet had never been here weirdly enough. Croquettas were delicious. Only weird think is the woman that took my order, grabbed half of my order than started chatting with another customer that came in after for quite a while, then continued my order. Pretty shameless to do that. But she was friendly. Nice place and I'd love to eat more of those croquettas. read more

Love this local bakery. They serve breakfast and are open way earlier than others and believe they also offer lunch. The ladies here are incredible and although overwhelmed with business try to show their patience with everyone. The bakery goods are also very good and what sets them apart is the better quality and taste of their food as compared to other nearby places, but their service and attentiveness to their customers. This is a local shop that has been servicing the local community for many years and as such they have a loyal following. Once you stop by you will see why. BTW the ladies do speak a bit of English but are predominantly Spanish as most of the older businesses are. If you don't speak the language be patient or ask help from other customers and you will be guided right. read more

If you want the true Cuban experience in Miami- come to Arahi's. The ambiance is true to the culture and the people are so attentive and nice. Having breakfast with my Cuban husband's family for many years -- THIS is where you want to order/eat from. We ordered the "Plato desayuno" this comes with toasted buttered bread, eggs (fried or scrambled), and coffee. (Of course you can customize it). The simplicity of this is what makes Arahi's a gem. read more

UPDATE: a day later. What a shame. I'd originally given this place 4 stars but if I could leave them 0 starts I would. So they've got two locations. Something I didn't know. I called the number I got off google and showed up to the Taco Bell location. They told me they didn't have a phone order and I must've called the other location. So I drove there, it's just right up the street. The Bakery was very busy but I was respectfully trying to get the attention of someone given that I'd placed my order 25 ago already. People that got there after me were tended to before anyone directed their attention towards me. Someone finally asked what I wanted in a rude manner and I told them I had a phone order. The girl had to ask around and after asking 4 different people they finally told her they had it. I asked another lady if my order was ready and the lady asked someone else. This other person was SOOOO RUDE. She started screaming to the lady I initially asked and me saying she'd already told me she had the order and I had to wait. I was so hungry I swallowed my pride and waited a bit longer. After seeing so many walking out with their food after I deliberately called to not have to wait so long I walked out. They need to train their employees at the 745 SW 8 street on how to treat other human beings and how to be more organized. PREVIOUS REVIEW: This bakery is on 8th street right across the street from Taco Bell. I came across it when making a wrong turn. The pan & bistec here is so incredibly good!!!! I've come back for it over and over again. The steak is so well seasoned and cooked - I love it! The only down side is that they are a little slow but in turn it's also a good thing because that means orders are two being made fresh to order. Another great quality: prices are great!! read more

Stayed in little Havana for a few days and came here twice. It's a very mom and pop family style bakery. I don't speak Spanish, and the employees were so nice and helped me without any issues. Everything they serve is authentic and delicious. From their croquettes, pastelitos, to their fresh cuban bread they make every day was all 5 stars. All their sandwiches are served on their homemade bread. Highly recommend eating here. Don't forget to get their coffee! read more

I hadn't come here in such a long time since is far from my house. I really wanted a delicious cuban breakfast so I decided to take a drive and I have to say it was so worth the drive. We placed two orders of breakfast, 6 ham croquettes, a side of bacon and an extra cuban toast. The breakfast consists of Eggs(scrambled, sunny side up, or with ham), cuban toast, cafe con leche and french fries. Madelyn was our server and I have to say it was AMAZING customer service and very welcoming, she stopped by to ask if everything was good and if we needed anything. I will definitely take the drive, everything was so so delicious from the breakfast to the ham croquettes to our cafe con leche. DEFINITELY will recommend it to anyone and definitely will be coming back more often. One last thing their cuban toast here is made to perfection. Unfortunately we were so hungry I took a picture at the end when we had finished with everything oops. read more

Welcome to Miami! Lol this is my first review for a place in Miami since I arrived here last night! Looking forward to tasting more of the cuisine that Miami has to offer!! Firstly... Let me start by saying that there was one Cuban bakery in Vegas that I knew of... Went there once... Loved the food... Went back a second time only to find that it had shut down... Imagine my dismay!!! :( So imagine my excitement when I discovered that Arahis bakery was walking distance from me. :) I went there for my first meal in Miami and yes the ambiance could use some work as it was very outdated and very dirty... Most of the tables when I walked in were dirty. So hence the -1 star. But the food was great! I got their breakfast combo... They had one person that could speak English and since my Spanish is pretty much non existent.. She was a great help! The breakfast combo consists of eggs, bacon or ham, fries and toasted Cuban bread with massive amounts of butter and Cafe con leche. Ok.. The eggs were just eggs... But the bacon was delicious! I don't think that it was normal American bacon cuz it was not as salty and they deep fried it!! I love me some fried bacon! :) The fries were extra crispy and the bread with the butter...omg... The bread was amazing. Very soft in the middle but the outside had this great crispy texture. 2 thumbs up in my book! :) 4/5 Their Cafe con leche...oh yeah... It's like everyone said... It's amazing! I got the dark... And it was lightly sweetened... With the milk all mixed in... It was amazeballs! And to think that they are right around the corner.. Heck yeah!! 5/5 I also got their beef empanadas... Not alot of beef compared to the size of the dough... But the beef was surprisingly delicious! So good!! 4/5 I also got their guava pastries to go as well. Haven't tried those yet.. But if they are like everything else I've tried there then I'm prepared to be amazed! :) I think I found my breakfast joint. :) And to think that I got all that food for only $10.15. crazy. Will definitely be back!! read more

Stopped in here for breakfast while on vacation. Our AirBnB was right around the corner. Always fun to flex my Spanish-speaking muscles, and it's definitely necessary here. The only complaint this so-so Spanish-speaker has is the menu board was difficult to read. That influenced my decision about what I ordered. The other food looked delicious. The sweets and cafe con leche I had were good. This place could clean up a bit. The cakes in the windows, while pretty, had been there a while. Some were damaged; a few had dead crane flies in them. read more

I drank delicious mojitos all night and even with a packed venue the drinks came out extremely fast! Although the restaurant was packed, our waitress remained extremely kind and attentive throughout the night. To me, the food was just good. We had the Jamón Serrano Croquetas to start. They were a little cold for my taste and not the best I've ever had but they weren't bad. My husband really loved his skirt steak ropa vieja and didn't leave a single grain of rice. I opted for the rabo encendido pasta. I like that they weren't skimpy on the rabo. The downside of this place is that to maximize space, you're packed in like sardines.

I don't even usually like plantains, and the Maduros were delicious! Oh! And the Passion lemonade was SO GOOD!! Service was friendly and attentive without being intrusive. Loved everything about the experience, and we're hoping to get back while we're in Miami!

Regardless when we arrived they sat us outside which is exactly what we were hoping for. Our server was nice at first. Explained all the popular dishes got our drinks out very quickly. I think she stole our table from someone else because shortly after someone came and we told them we put our order in and he seemed a little bothered. Unfortunately, our other server disappeared and never checked up on us. We pretty much didn't have any napkins during our entire duration of our meal. At least that part was good. We started off with a couple of mojitos and their Vaca Frita Tostones. You get these homemade maduro tostones topped off with shreeded beef in a moon sauce, pickled onion, and aji Amarillo aioli. A very delicious dish that didn't last long. Shortly after we received our main dish. I really hate when they do that. My wife ordered their Abuelas Ropa Vieja and I ordered their Masa de Puerco Chino. My wife didn't really care for her dish much. We've had plenty of Ropa Vieja before and would have preferred a congri type of rice as opppsed to just plain white rice. My dish was 10/10. Like in the name of "chino" this is an Asian inspired dish with fried rice, maduros, pineapple confit and crispy pork. A very delicious dish. It could have don't without the little salad on top, but at least it ads color to the dish. The crispy pork tasted so amazing and the fried had so much flavor. Mix in some of the maduros and you get a sweet and savory dish. Would definitely be returning to try this dish again.

Wanted a Cubano sandwich immediately upon arrival, so we came straight to Havana 1957. This spot has been recreating 1950s Havana since 2010, right down to the vintage memorabilia and the whole "Un Dia En La Habana" concept, and it's since grown into a small chain across Miami and even Vegas. The Ocean Drive location does it right: great service, very friendly and fast, food that was amazing across the board. Loved my first taste of a traditional, genuine Cuban sandwich, ham, roast pork, Swiss, pickles, mustard, all pressed together and served with a mountain of shoestring fries, as close to the source as I could ask for stateside. Ordered a rum and coke and they hand it to you in a genuinely giant glass, perfect for getting the party started, even though it was a random Monday afternoon. Vibes and atmosphere were immaculate the whole visit. Great first stop in Miami, and a great way to kick off the week that followed.

The blue crab agnolotti had a nice amount of crab, the sauce was delicious and the pasta perfectly cooked. If you want an amazing meal with a cool atmosphere topped off by spot on service - come to Sunny's. Oh I almost forgot - our dessert.

The music and vibe was fully vibing. My husband and I had reservations in the outside courtyard and I was nervous about the heat and humidity but the restaurant truly thought of everything. We felt a nice breeze throughout dinner and didn't feel the Miami summer heat and was able to enjoy our dinner. The food: Oysters were amazing despite being on the smaller side. The octopus ceviche was not fishy at all and I really liked the peanut sauce in the octopus ceviche. For main course we enjoyed the prime rib with asparagus, pomme purée, creamed spinach and tomato salad (the salad was so refreshing!) the cut of steak was absolutely amazing (like butter!) For dessert we enjoyed the banana toffee cheesecake and passionfruit sorbet and both hit the mark. Honestly Sunny's exceeded expectations and was absolutely worth it. We hope to come back again soon! Thank you to the team for making it such an amazing and memorable night for us. 10/10 Pro tip: there's free parking next door.

Just finished our 6 day anniversary cruise and my wife found this Bistro from the reviews. This was a brunch stop before hitting the airport.

The food was AMAZING! We definitely got a little carried away ordering because everything sounded so good, and for just my husband and me, our bill came to around $150. The portions were MUCH bigger than we expected, so I'd actually recommend ordering a little less than you think you need because you'll leave stuffed! That crème brûlée French toast was truly CHEF's KISSSSSSSSSSSSS! I would fly back just to have it again! The drinks were great too, but let me warn you... that Cotton Candy Mimosa is SWEET. Whew! If you have a serious sweet tooth, you'll absolutely love it. The atmosphere was such a vibe. The music was right up my alley, and the entire restaurant had such a fun energy. On top of that, our servers were phenomenal and made the experience even better. One piece of advice: get there EARLY. We arrived shortly after leaving our cruise and were seated without an issue, but while we were there, I heard people being quoted anywhere from a 30-minute wait to over an hour. If it's your last morning before heading home, that may not fit your schedule, but I can honestly say it's worth the wait. Amazing food, great service, fun atmosphere, and an experience we'll definitely be coming back for. Bistro's Cafe has earned a permanent spot on my Miami list!
