    Versailles - Tres Leches ($4.95) - good though also on the sweeter side. Not as sweet as the flan.

Dessert was so amazing...i ordered Coconut flan, we also had the rice pudding brûlée. Amazing!! I highly recommend!

    Venue (4/5) Versailles is a Miami institution located at…read more3555 SW 8th Street in the heart of Little Havana. The large, bright space features classic Cuban diner vibes with mirrored walls, chandeliers, and a lively, no-frills atmosphere. It's huge, bustling, and feels like a mix of old-school Miami and casual cafeteria-style dining. There's also a famous takeout window and bakery next door that's always packed. Expect crowds, especially on weekends -- it's touristy but authentically local at the same time. Food (4/5) This is the place for generous portions of classic Cuban comfort food at very reasonable prices. Standouts include the ropa vieja, lechón asado, Cuban sandwich. The portions are massive, flavors are bold and traditional, and everything comes out fast. Don't skip the café con leche. It's not fine dining -- it's hearty, satisfying, authentic Cuban fare that has fed generations of Miamians and visitors for decades. Great value overall. Vibe Energetic, loud, and full of life -- the true definition of a Miami landmark. You'll see a mix of locals, families, politicians, celebrities, and tourists all sharing tables. Service is quick and straightforward (sometimes brusque, but efficient). It's open late, perfect for post-night-out cravings, and has that unbeatable old-school Miami energy. Come hungry and ready for a lively experience rather than a quiet romantic dinner. Overall: A must-visit for anyone wanting a taste of classic Miami Cuban culture. Highly recommended for first-timers! 4+ stars for its legendary status and consistency.

    We live in Miami and are never in the Bayside area, but we took friends in town for a Miami sunset…read moreboat cruise that was based in Bayside and had dinner afterwards at La Canita. We made reservations in advance for dinner and arrived 30 minutes early and were warmly greeted by restaurant staff and seated us at a table within a few minutes. The restaurant is truly beautiful and has amazing decor and live musicians as well. We were seated near the windows, but they also have really cool patio seating overlooking the bay and the Virgin Cruise port. We were warmly greeted by our server and she offered to answer any questions we had on the menu and provided her favorite selections as well. We started with a carafe of red sangria to share for the table ($39) and then ordered the Croquetas Jamon Serrano ($13) and the Mushroom Croquetas ($14). Each had 4 or 5 pieces per order and OMG they were all absolutely outstanding and fresh! You have to order the croquettes, and we're used to having some great Cuban food as we've lived in Miami for more than 15 years now and dine out frequently. For entrees, we all ordered different options, and everyone loved their dishes! I had the Local Fish of the Day (Snapper) for $38 and OMG it was very fresh and an amazing catch and very flavorful and the portion size was perfect! I also really loved the coconut rice and black eyed pea curry. Service and food are all outstanding and we look forward to returning the next time we are in the Bayside area!

    Wanting to try a Cubano in Miami while waiting to board a cruise ship at the nearby Port of Miami,…read moreI chose La Canita Bayside because it was close to the Port (not walkable though), having a well reviewed Cubano on its menu. The service was attentive, and the food was delicious, but for one sandwich entree and one appetizer for lunch, it ended up $64.80 out the door. A bit steep. Located on the second floor of the Bayside Marketplace outdoor mall, La Canita Bayside is one of three locations around the Miami area. The elevator that the signs were pointing to, was out of order so a bit difficult for cruisers with luggage. It opened at 11 am, and my brother and I were one of the first ones in. We had our choice of indoor seats. We asked for tap water, which was constantly kept refilled by Mayra, our perceptive server. We split two dishes: conch fritters ($17) and the Cuban experience ($33) - a combination of a Cuban sandwich, glazed deep fried pork belly, and fried yuka (a sandwich by itself was not offered). My brother loved the glazed pork belly (chicharrones), but prefers his Cuban sandwich more time on the sandwich press, to create that melded experience. I loved the 4 pieces of hush puppy looking fritters, served piping hot with a large number of conch pieces mixed in with the spicy batter. I liked the sandwich as well, but wouldn't rank it in the upper half on my list. There is a mandatory 20% service charge for all size parties, which was clearly indicated on the menu. It's an 8% sales tax. It could be argued that high prices should be expected for this area, but the mall itself is no longer considered a top destination in Miami. I do think the atmosphere would be completely different at nighttime and/or the weekend. Maybe have a lunch priced menu when the space is like a normal restaurant, to attract more folks.

We came in on a Monday around 6pm and ordered off the happy hour menu. The brussel sprouts were out of this world good! The sauce they put on it is sweet and lightly spicy, and the little bits of bacon were a happy, salty surprise. The beef and chicken empanadas were also delicious. The chicken had tons of cheese, but the beef was my favorite, it was so flavorful! We ordered the pistachio cake with white chocolate ice cream, and raspberry sauce. It was so refreshing and a perfect pairing of flavors. I wish there was a little more cake, but I'm not complaining. I will absolutely be back. And next time, I gotta try their cocktails.

They don't appear to be big enough to handle a group this large, but they did it! Latin American food that was wonderful. They make a Pulpo Al Olivo that is the cat's pajamas. A great Ribeye empanada and finally, a mouth watering Grilled Branzino. All 10 star, all reasonably priced. The staff were the best. Very professional and very efficient. In the end, they all received a huge tip. We will definitely be revisiting this location. 12/25
