Pan con bistec
Alfredo R.

Love this place one of many palacio de Los jugos and I've been to a few of them located in Miami it's a well known spot for getting a variety of food in big amounts I went in for a pan con bistec this time but let me tell you I didn't expect it to be this good it was perfect Cuban bread toasted to perfection, skirt steak seasoned well, lettuce and tomatoes fresh, and with mayo definitely better than I expected. The service don't expect much and most of the employees only speak Spanish so it may be tough if your a foreigner but you can make it through they try their best as well. The ambiance it's located at the beginning/ start of your journey to Hialeah so reason why it's most Hispanic workers but you could also say allapattha there is places to seat but your right by the road so don't expect anything quiet and no indoor seating so it's okay.

Congri, maduros y ropa vieja
Jose C.

I've been to this location once already and I'm not sure why I never reviewed it. I would pretty much say El Palacio de los Jugos is probably my favorite restaurant in all of Miami. It's definitely a must visit for me when I visit Miami. Staff is always friendly and it's the best value you can find. My got to is a large plate of arroz congri, ropa vieja with maduros. I used to order myself a large plate but now recently started sharing one with my wife and then I order myself a Cuban sandwich or media noche sandwich. The arroz congri is best I've ever had and the ropa vieja is very delicious. My go to drink here is usually their guayaba but this time my wife got guayaba and I ordered their Mamey both were phenomenal. Can't wait to come back!

The best juices and shakes you will have give it a try. Watermelon juice is tasty and so is the mamey shake

Loaded Picadillo, which is a Cuban ground beef stew that's NOT spicy, but has layered flavors from soffrito, briny olives, raisins, potatoes

Meal prep, anyone? Why spend so much time prepping your meals for the week when you can spend less than $20 at this El Palacio del Los Jugos and get ONE "Completa" combo meal and parse it out for 3 days worth of eating? Seriously, if you get one of their combo meals, the portion is enough for 3+ meals and SAVE TIME meal prepping for the week. I usually have a meal there and get one to go and portion it out for eating the rest of the week. The food tastes great and they give you more food than you can possibly eat for a few days. Take a look around. It's a great place to sit and try a few things. They have a smoothie line that's great. I really like the "Batido de Mamey" here. Mamey is really The King of Tropical Fruits. If you haven't had it, go for it. It has a very smooth tropical flavor that's unlike anything else. A must-have culinary experience. The ambiance is cafeteria like. They don't prepare your food to order, but they have so much volume that it's really all fresh. The only exception is if you choose an item that few people get, like "Tasajo". I would only get that protein option if you happen to be there when they bring it out. But the rest is great.

Food and more food. This place has a ton of items. Fresh food lines both side of this place. And there's also fresh juice. Grilled steak was flavorful rice has good flavor but need a little hot sauce to kick it up. Will definitely try other items in the near future.

Hole in the wall/cafeteria style Cuban food heaven! We ordered a variety of food including the chicharonnes, plantains, yuca, sausage as well as the mango and guanabana juices. Everything was delicious, fresh, and authentic. There's plenty of outdoor seating. The store also sells some Latin American produce. Most of the staff only speak Spanish so keep that in mind when ordering!

Detox Juice
Fernando Q.

Esta fue mi primera vez en este restaurante. Me lo recomendó un amigo. Pedí un jugo desintoxicante después de correr. Quería algo para limpiar el estómago y sentirme bien y con energía. El jugo estaba delicioso, extremadamente fresco y muy económico: $7. El empleado tuvo la amabilidad de darme jugo extra de la licuadora porque sobró. Me sentí como si hubiera recibido dos jugos por el precio de uno.

Another establishment that will go back to is this place! Lots of options to choose from! From seafood to lechon to chicarones and lots of juice options! I enjoyed my lechon, chicharones, cortadito, beans and yucca. Definitely a must. It's a bit of a drive from Miami Beach, but it's worth the drive. They open late too! Lots of seats everywhere. Staff are also friendly and will take their time explaining things to you. Make sure you pick up a number when you get in!

Jugo de maracuya
Jose G.

This is a classic Miami spot that's always reliable. They have so many hot food options to choose from and everything is delicious. The prices are impossible to beat for lunch. The juices and smoothies come in every flavor and are very fresh. The staff makes you feel like you're family. If you go at peak lunch time it can be quite hectic, but doesn't hurt the overall experience. They also have some tables outside which is nice if it's not too hot out.

This is the "Manhattan deli" of Florida. The juice is off the charts and this particular location has a large cool outdoor seating area. Here I had the Mango. Which I think in retrospect I shouldn't have -- you can get that anywhere. The Mamey was a nice treat for a Northerner like myself. I also had the oxtail (amazing), the paella (amazing), the chicken and rice (good), and the bombas. If I go back I want to try the fish!

This an amazing place! It was introduced by one of my friends who is a local in Miami. Only locals goes there, and most of them speaks Spanish. Despite our ability to speak basic Spanish, they were very helpful & they won't even take advantage of you because you are a tourist. For example I gave an extra 1 cent for the sugar cane juice, the staff used the calculator to show me the exact amount for the sugar cane juice. They have several locations, we went to the one in Miami. The place is enormous with great Cuban food cafeteria style, I simply loved the vibes, all menus are in Spanish, that's how you know it is seriously authentic! A complete meal consist of a main & 2 sides. They offer many options of beef, pork, & seafood, the options are endless, so are the sides offered. I think you can go there several times & not have the same meal. They have Cuban sandwiches & empanadas plus a wide variety of juice, my favourite is the freshly squeezed sugar cane. It was so good that while we were in Miami, we went back there several times! Check it out & bring your Goggle Translate with you. You will not regret it!

And finally you get some croquettes. Not a huge fan of the croquettes here but they are OK. As previously mentioned, we have been here several time and on this trip, the hostess said if you want to be in the room of mirrors. What? I said OK and they took us to the back, where it is a, well... room of mirrors. The way she said it made me think, should I be concerned. But it was a big open area. The whole place is very nice. We love the large parking area because this place is packed most of the time. We actually came back and ordered another Cubano for the flight home. You should have seen the people looking at us while we ate our Cubano and they enjoyed their pretzel braids. :)

The shop is small with only the shared outdoor seating with other nearby restaurants. The Pan Con Bistec was very tasty and I liked the crispy bits inside. The flavor of the sauce could have been more pronounced but otherwise a really good sandwich. The Pan con Lechon was okay overall because it tasted very one note flavor and texture wise. The meat was moist and tender but I preferred the Bistec and the Cubano. They also provided a garlic dipping sauce which was very flavorful. However I felt that it overpowered a lot of the sandwich flavors. I also got the Mamey Batida which was smooth and subtle with its sweetness. My first time having a Batida and I really liked the consistency but will probably be choose a different flavor next time.

Our server was friendly throughout the evening and the food was pretty quick to come out. I didn't know before coming here but Cafe La Trova was listed on the Top 50 Bars of North America for 2026 and so I had to get the Buenavista drink which is highlighted as their award winner. Admittedly, I was let down by the drink. The balance was a bit off and overall I wasn't very impressed. However the food more than made up for it. The ropa vieja was very savory and the avocado cream was very zesty/citrus which helped cut down some of the richness of the dish. My only note would be to give some more avocado cream since there were only 2 little dollops. The Arroz Con Pollo was excellent! Super flavorful and I could eat this everyday and be happy. The tomatoes and olives add that extra bit of acidity which was perfect. The live music also added to the ambiance and so if you're someone trying to get that local Miami/Cuban vibe, I think Cafe La Trova is it.

Living in Miami I knew service was going to be bad for the rest of the meal so for the first time ever we just got up and left. I left a 1 star review on Google Maps. The reason I'm leaving another one on Yelp is that they responded to the other review telling me to email them to continue the conversation. I did it 7 days ago and they completely ignored it which tracks at how customer service is handled here. I suspect the same thing will happen and I'll have to leave another review on a different platform. I think something happened at Cafe La Trova where they're now just some corporate entity that's cashing in on the goodwill of the brand but they will eventually run the business into the ground. No one is at home here.

I recently tried their iced Cuban coffee with sugar and milk, and it was such a delicious addition. The passion fruit juice is also fantastic. I finally tried the grilled lobster plate, and WOW, it did not disappoint. Honestly, you might need to walk around the block a few times afterward because everything is just THAT good, and you're going to finish every last bite. Puerto Sagua has been serving Miami Beach since 1968, and it is still standing strong, serving incredible Cuban food with so much character and history. Great service and love the open restaurant ambiance diner feel. If you're visiting Miami Beach, DO NOT skip this place. Come hungry and get a taste of this iconic Cuban American restaurant. And whatever you do, GET THE OXTAIL STEW!

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.
