Best deal you'll ever get at an airport food outlet! $4 and some change after tax for a hot and delicious Cuban-style empanada. I got the spinach and cheese after recommendation from cashier and MMMM! Soooo cheesy, full of spinach, and filled tp the brim (end-to-end!) of it. Ambiance is very casual of course, but their food is much better for you than any of the other fat food shops anyway. Super worth a stop! read more

Craving traditional Cuban food while traveling? Find Versailles in Miami International Airport...there's a few of these around the Terminals, big and small. This is one of the smaller ones, but I was able to get a hearty "Pan con Bistec" (Steak Sandwich) and a Cortadito (light milk with Cuban coffee). It was around the $20s for the meal...airport prices but it was good and it filled up my tank for a long flight. I would do it again, especially for a quick and substantial meal. It takes a few minutes to make, as they make the steak fresh - for a thin steak like that you need it fresh or it'll be extremely tough. It's not a sit-down waiter type restaurant though, this is a quick service window. Perfect for when you want something fast. Works for me! I was able to find a quiet place to enjoy my sandwich and coffee just away from the main ordering and sitting area, and it even has a charging outlet. Perfect. read more

Cafe Versaille-Terminal E - Pan con bistec - Cuban Near Me - Miami, Florida

This cafe in Concourse E is open 24/7. It's one of 3 food or drink places at the Miami international airport that's open 24/7. I was drawn by the French name first and then it was the mango juice. I assumed it was all natural fruit bc I wanted it to be. It has added sugar and they didn't know what percentage juice it was. But it still tastes good. So I tried it. I would say it's about 10% juice and it tastes like mango so I was happy. Everything else was more like deep fried pastries or ham and cheese filling which I wasn't into. They also have coffee for those who need to wake up. read more

Stopped by before my flight and it was a great choice. This is a perfect spot to grab a Cuban breakfast pastry or sandwich. I tried the steak sandwich and highly recommend it, very flavorful. Service was decent, and the coffee is made to order, which makes it well worth it. The counters were clean, and I appreciated that they had cinnamon available to add to your coffee. A solid stop if you're looking for good food and coffee before heading to the airport. read more

While waiting for my flight in Concourse E, I was in need something sweet to counteract my beer buzz. This place had excellent prices on guava pasty so I ordered one for $2.45. The cashier was super busy but gave me the paper bag which felt oddly light. I opened the bag and noticed a tiny piece of guava pastry - an easy four small bites. Although tiny, it was sweet with a crumbling flaky crust. The menu included full latin specialties including cuban sandwiches and empanadas for only $3 75. Good place for a quick bite but nothing special. read more

If you have ever been to Miami, then you know how big of a deal Versailles Restaurant is. One thing I love about flying into Miami International is that they have a number of these Café Versailles stands in the airport. Versailles Restaurant is a famous Cuban Restaurant in Miami's Little Havana that is known for their Cuban cuisine and pastries. They opened in 1971 and have been featured on several TV shows and movies. Here at the airport stands, they have espresso drinks, croquetas, pastelitos, and hot-pressed sandwiches. I took a red eye into Miami International and was so happy that I had time to grab a Cuban coffee and some pastries when I arrived. read more

Airport food is always hit or miss, so we were pleasantly surprised by how happy we were with the food here! Knew we wanted to try a Cuban sandwich while visiting Florida, so we ended up grabbing one while waiting for our flight. Overall, it was pretty good - toasted with melted cheese. Pleasantly surprised. They also had delicious pastries - the guava was our big winner. Not overly sweet and a great compliment to our sandwich. Great stop for some lunch while waiting for your flight in terminal E. read more

My flight to Tampa had an emergency stop in MIA due to weather. We had to deplane until further notice. After my adrenaline rush, I wanted food. I know the MIA airport well. I was in terminal D at the Versailles over there. The airport has at least 3 that I've tried. For a quick service outpost of their main restaurant, it's a delicious food option. The airport restaurant is a quick service pay and go vibe. It has true authentic Miami flavor. read more

After getting in super late and finding the Gloria Estefan place OUT of coffee, we settled on Cafe V and had the best cortado of my life- the place was packed for a reason.

You can't really mess up anything Versailles related, specially the little window that serves pastries and coffee. On this visit, I made a quick stop to get fueled up before jumping on my flight. The lines are normally long and it takes about 20 minutes to order and get your food, at which point you either walk fast to your gate, or sit down and gobble down your food. Everything is good and it really depends on how much you are craving their stuff, as well as your time management skills and stress resistance. They also have a cafeteria with tables. Prices are not bad, I may stop next time. read more

I've eaten at the REAL Cafe Versaille, the one in Little Havana near downtown Miami, and loved it. Sadly, this airport outpost of that restarnat is NOT nearly the same quality. I had a Cuban sandwich, a few pastries, and a Cafe Cubano. The only really good item was the cafe...it was exactly what I would expect from a Havana-style espresso, rich and sweet. The sandwich and pastries, however, were terrible. The sandwich was super dry and lacked much flavor...it was closer to cardboard than to a real Cuban sandwich. The pastries were equally dry and flavorless...they were so dry they were hard to swallow. It's really sad to see that this airport outpost of the extremely famous Cuban restaurant does not even come close to doing the brand justice. Do yourself a favor and visit the real location downtown instead. read more

In a land of boring and expensive airport options, Cafe Versaille stands out. They have the BEST coffee I have ever tasted and I am a major coffee snob who knows my coffee and have had some of the worlds best. They had a wide variety of pastries, empanadas, cuban food, salads, sandwiches, and deserts too. The food was delicious and VERY REASONABLE. I couldnt believe how cheap my coffee and pastry was, especially in an airport. It is worth the walk to this terminal to visit this place. The ladies working are fast and efficient - maybe not warm and fuzzy but hey I didnt need that at the time - I just wanted my food quickly so I could go board my plane. This place is awesome!! Other airport restaurants, take note! read more

Man what a send off from what Versailles actually is and stands for. The staff could not be any colder. If it wasn't for their Santa hats you would think you're talking to soulless Krampus minions. Then again, maybe they were and they used the Santa hats as a disguise. We ordered a cubano and media noche sandwiches. Although there is a press/plancha right there on the service counter, our sandwiches were microwaved. Maybe we were supposed to ask for one or the other? Either way, we weren't asked or told how it would be heated so the sandwiches first came to us soggy then when we asked for them to be toasted it just wasn't a "cubano" or "media noche" anymore. On a shocking twist of an experience, the pastries were almost as good as what you find at the main Versailles spot. We ordered two cheese, two guava and cheese, and a dulce de leche cookie. Slightly more expensive than the main spot but all were delicious, tasty, and had that Cuban flare. The pastries so flaky and light with the sweetness from the filling. Meanwhile the cookie was out of this world good. That thick, rich, luscious dulce sandwiched between the soft buttery cookies was amazing. read more

3.5 but rounding up to 4 Stars. If the lines weren't so long, they'd easily be 4 stars. This location at MIA (in Terminal E, near Gate 31), nowhere compares to the original Versailles Restaurant, nor their Versailles Bakery but if you're at the airport, this is a great option for cortadito, sandwiches, empanadas, croquettes, and tostada. They also have a bunch of other food items and lots of beverage choices. This is a tiny location but packed with lots to offer. They even have a few tables where you can sit and enjoy your meal/snack. As to be expected, prices are much higher than the original restaurant/bakery. Make sure you have lots of time before your flight, as the lines are extremely long. It's well worth the wait, as long as you leave plenty of time. It's not worth missing your flight! lol read more

The toast was cold and the butter would not spread on it. The eggs were over cooked. It was like eating a boiled egg. The Hash browns were cooked well but they were cold too. We were the only ones there besides two other couples. read more

Fast, and quick service! We ordered some orange juice and empanadas to go.

Hey for $1.85 / $2 pastries and empanadas, that don't suck, and are quite filling? Im giving this a 5. We were rushing to catch our flight and hadn't eaten , maybe we were just too hungry haha. But despite the appearance, these ladies serve really good empanadas - really solid operation they have going Also their cafe con leches were very good! More on the milky side read more

This could easily have been a 5 star experience if they had more employees behind the counter. not sure if they're understaffed or this is how they always are. as i went to go get food from another location for my husband, the line was kinda short here but when i was walking back the line was at least 10 people long. so it's a hit or miss. anyway i needed my coffee, so i got in line. there was a lady taking food orders before you got to the cashier, i feel like she should multitask and when someone doesn't want a food order, she should be making coffee... me nor the guy in front of me wanted food so she was filling up pastelitos and probably helping the cooks in the back but maybe she should have been making coffee to make it easier for the cashier? the cashier had to take breaks in between checking people out to make coffee. by the time i got to the register and ordered my measly coffee, there was like 5 other customers waiting for their coffee. so after she cashed maybe 2 other people out after me, she had to stop and make a ton of coffees. that's why the line is as long as it is. Besides all that commotion. the food, the drinks, everything is SO cheap here and i can see that it's super tasty and everything looks mostly fresh! if i ever find myself near a Cafe Versailles at the airport, or anywhere really, i will definitely be checking out there food and always getting my coffee from here. it's a nice last minute Miami experience before you hit the road/air! read more

Unfortunately I have nothing good to say about this location. Lechon was dry, rice & beans were bland, counter service was terrible, mojito that tasted like water was $19 and the tables were not cleaned. I did not bother taking photos as I am not here to slam business's but to offer an honest review of my experience. I do hope it was an off day for the staff. Their walk up cafe for pastellitos & cafe was way better. Will definitely go that route moving forward. read more

A must stop in MIA for a cafecito.... I like to get at least two as I'm passing through.

I was sad to be leaving Miami and decided to try Cafe Versaille as I waited to board my plane. I ordered both a beef empanada and a Cubano. I absolutely loved the flavors of both. I'm sometimes hesitant towards beef empanadas, as they sometimes are a bit dry, but this one was juicy and flavorful, I was glad I decided to give it a shot. The cubano was absolutely delicious, however, I wish mine came with a little more mustard, and more than one small pickle on the whole thing. Also, a few pieces of the meat was cold, suggesting it hadn't been toasted fully through. Despite this, I still felt like the Cubano was delicious and I would definitely order it again next time I fly into MIA. read more

so, we were stuck at the airport and decided to go with the Cafe. I will admit we ate in the city at the original and we're not impressed one bit, but this was a better option than McDonalds. or so I thought, at least McDonalds is consistent. just regular airport food, no big deal, and not anywhere similar to the original, which wasn't that good in the first place. save your money, it is all hype. read more

I typically don't get crazy with airport food but I thought I'd give this place a try. It's located near Gate D9. The smell of fresh baked goods hits you once you enter their station. Never tried a Cuban sandwich before and their prices looked reasonable for airport food. So glad I gave them a chance cause it cured my hunger pain. I ended up adding a beef empanada and an Arizona. It wasn't just good cause I was hungry but hearty as well. Saving the other 1/2 for my bf to try. I'm actually about to hop back in line to grab a beef empanada for him to try cause that filling was bomb. Not too salty and stuffed nicely. Highly recommend if you have time to make it down to this end. It's a bit of a jog from D34. read more

Whenever I fly in to Miami, the first thing I do is head over to Cafe Versaille and get a colada and a pasteles de guaybo y queso. It makes me very happy. The pasteles are served warm and the colada is always on point. It is such a great way kick-off any trip to Miami. The people behind the counter are super friendly and the coffee comes out quickly. I hear people fuss and say this place is not that great, but there is always a line of people that work at the airport. If they are there every day and have time to check out all the coffee spots and if this is the place they go to, it has to be good. And it is that good. read more

The sandwiches might be ok, but if you want meat & veggies, get it on D concourse before you come out to E. I had the roast chicken with mixed veggies & plantains. The chicken tasted like it was cooked maybe the day before & was hard. The veggies were just a frozen cauliflower, carrot, & broccoli blend from a bag. read more

As far as airport food goes, this is amazing. I saw this line while I was headed to my gate and had to stop and try it because I was extremely curious. (and i saw someone order an entire box of pastries, I'm not sure if it was a last minute gift for a loved one or plane snacks but either way it looked amazing) They offer a huge variety of Cuban pastries, sandwiches, and coffee. I ordered the Cuban sandwich, ham and cheese empanada, and a cortado. 10 out of 10 i would recommend! I also want to normalize eating a Cuban sandwich for breakfast. read more

Horrible service. Cashier was extremely rude when taking my order rolling eyes and complaining behind my back with other employees as if I didn't understood Spanish. She literally made fun of the customer before me after he declined to add a tip on the service. They need to know the service tip is optional, not required. The coffee and pastries were ok, but the service takes away from the experience. read more

Hubby went to Starbucks just up ahead which is my normal go to, but wanted to try something else. Iced Cafe con Leche was $3.99 before tax $4.32 after & I'm not impressed. I didn't expect much, I mean it is just Iced coffee. An iced coffee at sbux is the one "cheap" thing you can buy there for only about $2. This was double the price with triple the sugar. The sugar at the bottom isn't even stir-able it's just stuck there. Would come back to try the food or empanadas though as they have great reviews. read more

There was a dead roach IN my steak sandwich. I've never been so disgusted in my life. Obviously not sanitary.
