    Guava + cheese and beef pastelito
    Kristine Z.

    Amazing service and huge portions! Highly recommend the fried pork ~$11 which was crispy on the outside and supremely juicy and flavorful on the inside (fed 4!). It came with grilled onions, a large portion of beans and rice, and mashed yucca. The lechon ~$6 had really crispy skin and tender meat, not too greasy either. The staff warmed up the pastelitos for us, which was a perfect ending for the meal.

    Located in the Palm Drive Plaza, left side of mall

    APPETIZING MORSELS ON THE WAY TO EVERGLADES NP! We were on da hunt for breakfast options in the early morning as we planned to hit Florida's Everglades National Park early to avoid the sweltering heat & humidity accompanying this biosystem (see I was listenin' during the Ranger Talk!) in mid-June. Dunkin' Donuts?!? Never. Cracker Barrel, Mickey D's, IHOP... nah, all stuff I can get at home. I want some LOCAL GRUB! Yelp says Palm Bakery opens at 0600hrs! Rockin' 4.5 stars on the yelp-meter, too, must be worth a visit! Let's see what this is all about! Located in Florida City, it is even on the way to The Everglades! Can't get any easier than that! Yelp directions are on point, small parking area for the strip mall it's in. The town itself isn't in the most pristine conditions, but kinda typifies the Caribbean vibe. No problema! Will stop for Yummy food anywhere!!! No big sign to say "Here I Am!!!" visible from the street, but as you get closer to the building, there she be! In we go, and there's a line of locals waiting to place their order or hovering to get su comida. Hmmm the locals sign is POSITIVE, even in the early morning! Oh Yeah! Staff is approachable & friendly and fronts the Spanish lingo. I got by with my California-ish Spanish but they spoke English as well ;) Sooo... LET'S EAT! CUBANO SANDWICH ($6.65): It's been mentioned on many Florida To-Do lists that I peeped at, that you have to try a Cuban Sandwich. It holds just as much significance as Key Lime Pie. I've never even heard of that kind of sammie living in Cali all my life. Now was my chance! No, Palm Bakery didn't make any Best Of Lists for their Cubano, but seems like a solid place to start as quite a few locals before me were ordering it! It's a long piece of bread, almost the length the my forearm. Palm's version is Thin pieces of ham, cheese, pickles and Mustard are stuffed inside then toasted on a Plancha, kinda like a panini grill. I dig mustard so this sandwich was TASTY! Even the pickles tasted good! Half a sandwich was filling enough for me. Saved the rest for after our jaunt through The Everglades! Probably a good idea that Mayonnaise isn't used, as that would spoil quickly in this Florida heat! Very content with what I got, now I gotta find an option in Cali ;) PASTEL DE GUAYABA ($1.25): On par with the VERY popular pastry shop in Cali... Porto's and their famous Guava Pastry! Flaky soft breading with a Guava compote that is flavorful without being too sweet! Yum! Shoulda bought more of those! CUBAN COFFEE: Wifey had to sample this version of coffee in the area. When in Rome, right?!? Basically a thicker and creamier version. Still tasted good, and definitely kept her alert for alligators sneaking up on her while we roamed The Everglades! "See any Gators yet, Mama?!?" lol VERY EASY RECOMMENDATION! Friendly staff, short wait times for food prep, tasty morsels, and an affordable price make this a solid option to consider for quick bites when heading into The Everglades! Enjoy, I sure did! :)

    Outstanding little bakery - great coffee , sandwiches and pastries. Hidden gem - you should give it a try

    We came here for breakfast and it was SO GOOD. We were starving so we ordered croquetas, un pan de bono, and the nica combo which is what you see in the picture! I loved that it was big portions too! The nica combo included gallo pinto, queso frito, scrambled eggs with ham, salchica, and the biggest tostada I have ever had! Ohh and included a cafe con leche.

    My visit to the Palm Bakery made me happy, the list isn't short customer have a lot of choice, we can customize the choice as wants. what a great place with delicious, hug portion of beverage. The staff was super friendly, my order of breakfast and it was so good and fresh.

    Stephanie P.

    They are beating price and food quality is awesome, the list isn't short you have a lot of choice. what a great place with delicious, hug partions and also able to order customize one as per mode. My order, it came within half of mentioned time along eggs, sausage, cafe con leche, toast and fried cheese. The food was super good quality, the best part is that you have a lot of options to choose.

    Place was pretty clean and quick service. Food wasn't bad. Anytime I can sit with latín coffee and tostada is good for me

    Not enough meat in the sandwich but everything else was incredible!
    Teresa R.

    I loved their freshly baked Cuban bread! This bakery offers a wide variety of baked treats and a nice variety of home cooked Cuban comfort foods. I would definitely come here again and order from the buffet. The only thing I would change here is the amount of pork that they put in their Cuban sandwich. It was lacking big time.

    Wow. This place was phenomenal. Our Airbnb host recommended this Cuban/Latin American restaurant in…read moreHomestead, FL and it was downright amazing! We got a sampler platter that included some croquetas, plantain chips, tamal, fried pork chunks, and fried shrimp. Zero complaints about anything! So so good. My main was the Sopa de Res, which was a hearty soup. The serving size was gigantic. I actually took most of it back with me and it made two more meals. There were lots of root vegetables, slow cooked beef still on the bone, a side of rice and corn. My dad got a huge Cuban sandwich that he also ate on for days and my mom had empanadas, which I finished off for a third meal. We also went back for pie. That was ok - it was extremely rich and kind of pricy at $13 a slice. I also tried their Cortadito and took it to go. Great coffee as well. Highly, highly recommend eating here. The decor is fun and the wait staff super nice and patient with all our questions. They also have a separate ice cream shop across the parking lot.

My husband ordered a Cuban sandwich with French fries cooked to perfection in clean oil, and I had grilled chicken (pechuga à la Blanche) with beans, rice, and sweet plantain, along with cilantro sauce. The portion sizes are very generous and we each had leftovers for another whole meal. We will definitely be back! I also appreciated that the suggested tip amount started at 15%. We left more, but too many restaurants have the suggested tip amounts much too high. Do look at the menu item pricing, as some dishes were $75+. It may have been due to portion size as well as ingredients.

    Excellent Haitian eatery with affordable prices. situated on Krome in the Rodeo plaza. The pleasant…read moreservice at this family-run restaurant is excellent. The restaurant is reasonably sized and tastefully, but simply, designed. The menu is concise, and you can always ask for something that isn't on it, and they will do their best to accommodate you. Lunch specials can fill you up without breaking the bank. Griot, or fried pig chunks, is their most well-known and traditional food. It's flavorful and a little oily, but you can add some pikliz, our Haitian chili sauce, and it will absorb it all, especially when served with rice, salad, and fried bananas or tostones. You can even switch up the sides.

Not sure if it's just a rough neighborhood, but we were clearly the first eat-in clients of the afternoon/evening. The hostess said they could accommodate our group of 7 and so we did end up staying, but our group had to do all the rearranging of tables, high chairs, and table wipe downs which was strange. Overall the service was just OK. One of our dishes didn't come out with the others which was unfortunate as everyone was done eating when it finally did come out. One nice thing was they prepared small plates of fries and ketchup for our youngest boys who weren't interested in the Caribbean fare offered. The food and presentation was nice, but seemed to be very overcooked and dry. Perhaps just an off-night for the staff. I was encouraged to see several takeout orders being picked up so seems like they're a local favorite.

Overall we had a great experience and the food was fantastic, you can't go wrong with Cuban food in south florida.
