we spend a really good time there , really good customer service, Magalis was so kind and friendly . !!!

So we come to Miami every year for work and play and the one thing we must do every year is visit the Latin Cafe 2000! The food is very good and always made correctly. The empanadas with that wonderful green sauce is an experience that all should have at least once in their lifetime! The service is always excellent and the waitress are all gorgeous and very kind. The atmosphere is awesome. You can choose to dine inside or out...it's up to you. My only complaint would be that the parking is a little atrocious and some of the cushions in the outside seating has seen better days. May be time for an upgrade. Nevertheless, we will always make sure we come here at least twice when in Miami!! read more

NEVER GET DELIVERY THROUGH TOAST APP My last delivery order (today) was bar none the WORST ever. The gentleman was 15 minutes late simply because he took an EXTREMELY long path. IF he'd simply followed what the GPS was telling him the order would have been here on time. Food arrived bone cold. NEVER AGAIN. read more

Very nice server. Spoke English, and was helpful. I felt like it was a "Latin" Denny's Food was just Okay Potato tortilla was not seasoned and very dry and overcooked. Shredded Pork was a little greasy, from being fried crispy. read more

Restaurant was right across the street on our layover in Miami. Very nice place with a very nice service. I go the fried pork and my wife the lechon. Both were delicious. For sides we got black beans and rice mixed, tostones, and yuca. All were perfectly seasoned and delicious. Great place for dinner on our unexpected layover. read more

I asked the front desk receptionist to recommend a place to eat. She said Latin Cafe was good and I always go with recommendations of the locals. Let me preface my review by saying I asked for someplace close to the hotel. So this is one of those times I should've checked the Yelp reviews. The food was ok, not bad, just not as good as every other Latin place I've eaten. The chicken was dry, the rice overly crunchy and the plantains were ok. When I got my plate the food wasn't hot, just like the dish it was like warm. It is possible that ordering the special of the day wasn't a good choice or after a long drive my taste buds weren't ready, it may be a different experience for you. The staff congregated at the front entrance, they didn't guide me to be seated. I was actually pointed to a counter, I think they thought I was doing a pick up(?) Once I got the attention of my server, it wasn't crowded, she came quickly, took my order and it was out in 5 minutes. If she spoke English she didn't let on so I had to rely on my basic Spanglish. It's not a place I'd return to, but again, your experience may be different. read more

Tldr; All dishes were too salty. Placed an order here for pickup after seeing how many reviews they had, and was really excited for the food. They had so so many options which made it actually quite hard to pick. My fiance and I order dinner and also a second meal to have as lunch for the next day. Filete de Mahi I asked for the blackened. The fish was cooked really well and had a really good seasoning as well, but it was quite salty. A good portion size on this though. Vaca Frita de Pollo This was shredded grilled chicken breast with onions and some garlic sauce. I saved this for the next day as a lunch and was really surprised by how huge the serving amount was! Very very big amount of chicken there which would have definitely been a good thing, but it was too salty! I tried to cover up the taste with some of the plain steamed vegetables on the side but it was just too much. I had to throw some away and I felt really bad but it was just too salty to have. Filetillos de Pollo This was the chicken strips cooked in a Cuban sauce with peppers and onion. Another one with the big serving size. The sauce was really good and flavorful. Even amount of chicken and peppers and onion there. My fiance had this dish and he really loved it. Kind of salty again here in my opinion. Churrasco de Pollo This was a good little chicken breast which was supposed to come with a chimichurri sauce but we didn't get that. A little disappointed with the missing sauce but the chicken was cooked just right and this was a good dish overall. For the sides we both ordered side salads and steamed vegetables. The salads came with a really nice mango vinaigrette and we absolutely loved this! Arroz con Leche and Tres Leches for the two dessert items we ordered and they were both really good. The rice pudding was perfectly sweet and came with a little bit of cinnamon on top which had a nice kick to it. Even the Tres Leches was so fresh tasty! read more

If you want poor customer service, go to this location. Almost a month ago I had a poor experience at this location. I posted a review and was told to connect with the location via an email that was provided. I sent An email and I'm still waiting to hear From someone. It's a shame because the location is close to my home and I used to go 2-4 times a week. This was like the third bad experience. I've since started going to Caribe Restaurant. If you don't want to be treated poorly I suggest you do the same. read more

Santo was such a great server! Explained the menu so well. Very warm and friendly. Food was so delicious. Highly recommend

This is a classic whole in the wall by the airport. The food was surprisingly really yummy! We ordered the snapper + it came with 2 sides. We chose arroz morro + vegetables. Surprisingly the fish + arroz morro tasted very fresh, made that day, + tasty. I do think it's a little silly to charge $1 for basically reheated frozen soggy vegetables when other sides cost more. The food tasted pretty authentic but not completely but the chef gets the gist. The service SUCKKKKKKKKED :x. The waitress literally left while she was in the middle of service WITH US. At least she left after we placed an order of 2 plates. We watched her walk away with her bags + leave + left us. We waited about 15 mins to then call the attention of the manager because we hadn't finished ? It was so strange. Nothing was comp. incase anyone is wondering. However, this will be a place I stop whenever I come into town - which is pretty often. read more

Está bueno hay bastante variedad de comida cubana y latina están ricos los. Quesitos fritos ...

Absolutely love this place! Always has a great ambiance and the service slaps. When you come you must ask Elva she is a sweetheart and when im tell you she makes the BEST cafe con leche she really does, she really brings a smile to my face sometimes. Don't forget the chefs though they are always cooking up delicious food. The location is fantastic as well. Definitely stop by when yiu went good food and service. read more

Speedy service (thank you Sandra for your attention and professionalism), the avocado toast was fast and tasted great.

They have a menu with colors which is a nice distraction for little kids. read more

Very friendly staff. Good ambiance, not too loud but lively. The staff was great and took excellent care of us and the food was delicious.

Tl;dr food is amazing. Service so far is hit or miss (not sure if the difference is between dine in vs take out). -1 star bc of poor service. Would've minus two stars bc the service sucked but the food is just soo good.. the chefs are amazing!! E X P E R I E N C E sooooo we came back. It was soo good yesterday that literally we've been thinking about this place nonstop. The empanadas. wow. We came as a group of 2 on a Thurs evening at 6pm for take out. F O O D Tostones rellenos picadillo: it's ok. The meat was tasty but the plantains were a bit over cooked and dry. 2 Empanadas carne: just as amazing as it was yesterday. crispy. meaty. Flavorful. Not too salty. 2 Empanadas ropa vieja: amazing. This is the best for sure. Crispy and fried well. the meat is basically marinated pulled pork.. so much more flavor than the beef!! They didn't have any pastries left at all. ): S E R V I C E norma? (Latina lady with super long pointy nails) took our order at the take out counter. She wasnt friendly. And we had to repeat our order 3x before bc she kept forgetting our order.. even though she was literally entering it as w said it. We definitely had a better experience yesterday as the alexandra was so friendly, easy to chat with and very attentive. P R I C E 19 + 15% tip = 22.5 We still gave 15% tip to support the small businesses... The tip was not bc the service was good. read more

On a short layover in Miami I spotted this Cuban cafe and I couldn't resist no matter how short the layover is it is always worth to try. Plenty of customers dining in and plenty of options on the menu I'd have tried more options with more time but "mission cubano" was on. The bread is super crunchy and the whole flavor balance was pretty good. So far ranking top 3 of the different places I tried so far. Very fast service considering the sandwich has been made from the scratch. Recommended read more

Staying at a local hotel, we decided to stop into Latin Cafe 2000 for dinner. What A great find. Excellent, friendly staff. Santo couldn't be more helpful. For starters I tried the Cade Bombon (condensed milk, expresso, double shot topped with foam and cinnamon- tasty way to start the meal. Mahi Tacos and Cubano sandwich were incredible! Of course coconut flan for desert was a great way to end our visit. read more

I ate here 2 years ago and I couldn't remember my experience but I know it wasn't bad. We came here again because we ran out of late night options and sat outside. They really invested in the outdoor patio. It was raining but the weather was perfect. My husband had the pollo a la plancha with black beans and white rice and a side of plantain. He enjoyed it. I think the chicken needed a little bit of salt but black beans were really good. I had the ropa vieja with arroz moros and sweet plantain. I thoroughly enjoyed my food. This place doesn't have a lot of great reviews, but I'm certain you can't go wrong with the ropa vieja if you're on the fence. I plan to eat here again in the near future. Plus, the cafecito was so delicious and affordable. read more

By far the best link in the whole chain. Do not go to any of the other Latin Cafe's. THIS LOCATION is the best in service, food quality, and overall dining experience. The staff is great, the chefs are excellent, and the management is top notch. Though they are always busy, they maintain a clean and happy environment. We have been faithful customers for long over 10 years. We eat in, order take out, Uber eat, and cater 90% of all our parties from THIS location. Norma and Olga have a special place in our hearts. The "ventanita" service is exceptional, especially if you're in a hurry. There isn't a single thing on the menu we don't like. You can't go wrong. The Vaca Frita de pollo is a fun option that you can't find at most Cuban spots. La crema de malanga is absolutely delicious. And of course, you need to have a local spot to buy Abuela's inspired chicken noodle soup. Oh, and the portion size!!! You will always have left over to take home! Donde comen 3, comen 4! Since it is so close to the airport, THIS Latin Cafe id the first spot we take all our friends from out of town. 10/10 recommend! Update: I'm heart broken. I found something on the menu I do not recommend. I spent $50 on the worst pan con bistec I've ever had. I am a die hard fan of Latin cafe.... I've never been more disappointed in all four of the Pan con Bistec I ordered. The bread was not fresh... dry sponge: you can put dish soap on it and wash dishes. The steak was unflavored and undercooked. So disappointed. And warning: the batido de mamey is ice cream based. Do not recommend unless if you like the ice cream. read more

Had an amazing dinner here! Love the outdoor area that has fans and a cool mist for those hot summer evenings! We started with some white sangria and a beer then ordered some queso frito to start. The server was super sweet and very attentive, he even brought out some plantain chips and toasted Cuban bread to munch on while we waited for the mains. For the mains, we got the Snapper fillet and the Bistec Empanizado - Breaded Thin Cuban-Style Steak & chose the A La Milanesa style - Topped With Ham, Housemade Creole Sauce & Swiss Cheese. For the sides (you get 2 per entree) we got fries, veggies, rice & bean mix and mashed potatoes. We were so excited to dig in! When they arrived the portions were hugggggeee! And the flavors were on point! Our faves were the Snapper and the mashed potatoes. We even saved room for some Tres Leches which you gotta get here. I'll be back to try breakfast soon! read more

We were in town for the day after flying in from Atlanta and staying near the airport and had a taste for good Cuban food. The restaurant is in walking distance of a few airport hotels. When we walked up to enter, we were in awe at how vibrant the outside seating area is. The prices are also very reasonable and the portion size gives you the most bang for your buck. The food: DELICIOSO!!! I had the Frita Cubana and it's honestly one of the best burgers I've had! Very flavorful from the first bite til the last. We also got the crème brûlée and.. wow, *chefs kiss* All in all this was a great experience and right what we needed after navigating through crowded airports. Norma's service was also great! We will be making this one of our first stops on our next trip to Miami!! read more

El servicio siempre es 10/10. No tengo ninguna queja sobre ello. Mi pareja y yo las últimas veces que hemos venido es de noche y la comida es divina pero justo hoy vinimos por la tarde y notamos ambos mucha diferencia, siendo mejor la comida de la noche, por su calidad y frescura y sazón. Suena extraño pero pensamos que hay dos turnos y los de la noche cocinan muchísimo mejor. Todo lo demás está excelente, amamos venir aquí. Es de nuestro restaurante favorito. read more

We came late for a quick bite after landing at the airport, and the place was packed. Our server, a young woman, was very friendly. We got a few appetizers and a main dish and shared. Mini fritas-3 bite size fritas. They were good, the bread was a bit hard. Too bad the potato sticks are not fresh, but commercial brand. Sweet Plaintain Omelette was plumb and delicious. Spanish style. Fried Cheese StIcks with a Mango Vinaigrette Sauce is a new addition to the appetizer list. Ham Croquettes was the third appetizer. Good. Guarapo, fresh Sugar Cane juice. Of course, it's not the same sweetness as Cuban Sugar Cane. read more
