Everything was extremely salty--I felt like I was eating a salt lick. Unfortunately, it'll probably be a little while before I return. Service continues to be hit or miss. Sometimes it's great, and other times it feels like you caught the staff on the wrong day or they're already in weekend mode. That said, the restaurant itself is cozy and comfortable, with three large-screen TVs showing everything from soap operas to soccer matches, creating a relaxed atmosphere. Oh, and they apparently had a flooding issue in the women's bathroom

Enriqueta's Sandwich Shop

I've never made it to Enriqueta's because they close early on weekends. But I have a flight to San…read moreFrancisco today, so my wife and I finally decided to hit it for lunch before heading to the airport. Let me tell you: this place is LEGIT locals. There is absolutely nothing touristy or manufactured about it. Stainless-steel tables, red plastic baskets, a busy counter, family photos covering the walls and a dining room full of people who clearly come here all the time. And the sandwiches are HUGE. Enriqueta's, opened in 1964, is best known for its Cubano and pan con bistec, but Rachel and I shared a medianoche, a tortilla con chorizo y queso and something called the "Super Cheese" with bacon. That last one is basically an enormous griddled pile of bacon and molten cheese barely contained by Cuban bread. I also grabbed some empanadas to take on the plane. The tortilla was beautifully browned, packed with chorizo and cheese, and substantial enough to be a meal by itself. The medianoche had the proper soft, slightly sweet bread, pressed crisp around a serious amount of pork, ham, Swiss, mustard and pickles. Nothing dainty happening here. The iced café con leche is also extremely strong. I will not be falling asleep on the flight out. Best of all, we got to meet the boss herself, Lucia Plá, the beloved matriarch on Saturday morning, greeting customers. Her husband, who bought the diner in 2000, Jose Luis, passed in 2019. This is the classic Cuban diner experience--a completely different vibe from Versailles or La Carreta. Smaller, more personal and much more like Puerto Sagua: a real neighborhood restaurant serving real people, with no interest in becoming a theme park version of itself. I'll definitely be back.

It had almost a 5 star rating on Google and yelp and we were already walking around Wynwood, so we gave it a shot. It's very small inside so we're glad we were able to get a table but service is slow as many others have mentioned. I didn't mind very much, everyone was very very nice. The interior is beautiful, I loved the painted cafeteras hanging from the ceiling and the beautiful cigar area was a nice touch! However, my son and I split a burger and it was not only very undercooked (we ate it anyway and dreading that decision) but it was a tiny piece of meat for the amount of bread. I mean I should know better than to order a burger at a Cuban restaurant but their dish options were already very limited and feeding a 9 year old boy, well burger it is. We also got the ham croquettes. Not sure if I got the wrong ones but they tasted more of cheese than any ham. I'm going to assume they gave me the wrong croquettes but it was mostly cheese and while a good flavor, not at all what I expected. Not to mention, for just the 2 of us they add a 20% gratuity that isn't mentioned at first and hardly assumed for a party of 2. But, that's Miami for ya! For the kindness of the servers, I'd give 5 stars but because the food was not what I expected at all, it's 3 stars for us.
