The door dash order arrived within minutes and they were steaming hot still, you can totally tell they were just deep fried.

This was my first time in 15 years coming back to try Latin American Grill in Pembroke Pines…read more When my family used to live in Pembroke Pines, I remember stopping by to grab colada and sandwiches for quick lunch every weekend with my friends before going out. It was one of more affordable lunches for us back then. Not much has changed in all the years. The food quality is still decent, the prices are still affordable, and the customer service is still friendly. It was a nice experience to stop by for a simple breakfast and colada. It helped me reminisce about my life from years ago, how much has changed for the better now, but still missing how some things were back then. Maybe it wasn't a simple dining experience for me today, maybe motivation for me to check in on some people from way back then to see if they are still doing well. Thanks Latin American Grill for still being at the same location and reminding me to reach out to people I haven't spoken to in years. They offer plenty of free parking in this plaza. I would recommend this place to others and maybe be back next time I am in Pembroke Pines area.

This long standing Pines eatery was quite a pleasant experience recently. I had the seafood jalea,…read morecrispy plantain strips with the garlic crack sauce , yucca mojo and black beans. Everything is so fresh! The jalea is piled high with lightly breaded shrimp, squid, fish bites and lobster tails! More than enough for 3 people to share. The sides appear under seasoned at first taste but the flavors really sink in during leftovers that reheat well. Be forwarded this is family style portions so if you order a lot of it alone it's more than one meal for you. Empanadas are crispy and fresh and generously filled. Chicken soup is under seasoned and the chicken is dry I would pass. Fried fish is a generous portion that also reheats well! Juan is an amazing manager that cares for his staff. Service is just ok, I think Spanish speaking may get you a more warm & genuine experience. The restaurant is clean and large with a winding bar area. Beer and wine and fresh OJ are available among other refreshments. They are doing it well here.

I decided to try again the next day, but go and order in person. This time customer service was great, my order was ready quickly, and the food was really good. The garlic sauce was amazing! The black beans weren't all that, but the flavor of the chicken made up for it.

Though one dish came out about 15 minutes prior to the other so I was done eating by the time the next persons food came out. The not so good: Flies. So many flies. I get it, it's an outdoor venue but they have to have a way to block them. They have a small table fan but they were all piled up in a stack because they didn't work. The big fans blow all the napkins but don't prevent flies from being there. Now the service.. most of the staff is nice but there's one lady there that just seems constantly annoyed. A bit standoffish. Overall, the food and vibe they got going is great but the overall experience can be improved. It's a small spot and it gets busy so expect to wait for a table if you go during peak hours. Parking is also very small.

First the steak was a palomilla steak, I've never ordered this meal and had the carne asada be a palomilla. Next the sausage had zero flavor, it tasted like it had been thawed in water. The arepa was hard and dry, it tasted like it had been rewarmed. For $23 I really expected more. The beans and chicharron were the only things good about the plate.

To my surprise when the counter called my name there were two 1/2 white chicken orders. I think that needs to be made more clear, also the kiosk doesn't allow any options for substitutions of any of the sides. That is the first issue. Biggest issue. Once I explain the issue at the counter, they advise me that because I odered at the kiosk, they can't process a refund at all. So I am stuck with two orders. It makes no sense that the counter person can't issue a refund. What if the food is bad, or gets returned, etc? No options. Hopefully management can review this and make improvements. I almost forgot, I found a hair on the black beans, which they promptly replaced.

The rotisserie chicken stood out, juicy, flavorful, and probably the highlight of the meal. Portions were decent and filling, but the overall experience felt a bit like fast food, quick service, simple presentation, and not much ambiance. It served its purpose: a casual, satisfying meal when you're hungry and on the go. Wouldn't go out of my way to eat here again, but if you're nearby and craving something hearty and quick, it's worth a try.

I was looking for a Colombian like breakfast or brunch in this area when I came across this…read moreVenezuelan restaurant. :D I couldn't have been happier to have found this place. We ended up ordering for pickup up because it was a rainy morning and with kids it's just sometimes easier to stay in. We ordered the breakfast combo that comes with black beans, shredded beef, chicken, and pork. Arepa, cheese, and scrambled eggs. Everything tasted good! The portions were rather big, and everything came packed individually, which makes it very convenient to store in the fridge if you don't finish it. I do have to say that the arepas were not as good as mine lol. A bit hard maybe amd the empanada dough is a bit sweet so my husband who wanted empanadas, couldn't eat them because he can't take sugar. They were very nice over the phone and during pickup time!

Almost no one on staff speaks English, making it nearly impossible to order or ask basic questions. I had to resort to pointing at the menu and using translation apps, which slowed everything down even more. On top of that, the wait times were ridiculously long -- we waited over 45 minutes just to be seated and another 40+ for our food. The workers seemed completely disorganized: orders were mixed up, tables weren't cleared properly, and no one appeared to be in charge or coordinating anything. It felt chaotic the whole time. Save yourself the headache and go somewhere else where communication isn't a barrier and service is actually efficient. Definitely not worth it.

She was actually going with us to the cruise as well. When we got to her house, had a little chat then off we went to this place per her recommendation. We were starving yes but it did not disappoint. There's 7 of us so we ordered different dishes from the menu. Cuban sandwich. Tamales Con Lechon. Croquettas(Breaded ham paste). Thursday lunch specials- Skirt steak. Roast pork Lechon asado. We shared some from everyone's plate to get a taste of everything. I love their smashed crispy plantain too. Their garlic bread was ok for me not really a fan. Everything were delicious but I wished we ordered and tried their desserts though. We just had their Cuban coffee and that was it. So goodd!! We just got so full and couldn't afford to stuff our face anymore lol! I love plantains and I just got a couple of pieces from my sister in law's plate. The service was kind of a little slow but it was worth it I think. We enjoyed the place while waiting and they have a full bar anyways. I love the interior decor and almost every part of the furniture is curated. The place is a little huge so it's really good for big groups too. I highly recommend them if you are craving for Cuban food. Parking is great as well. There's so much space. Price reasonable. There you have it! I hope you enjoy dining there as well as we did!

Very disappointing lunch experience at Las Vegas Cuban Cuisine today. We debated going to El…read moreBalcon de Las Americas but decided to come here since it had been a while. We instantly regretted our decision after ordering our food. Our server was not friendly and welcoming. The bread didnt come out until after our entrees arrived, and I also had to ask for it to two different people. Tall guy in a server uniform poured water in our cups without any greeting and rushed away. I had to ask for straws and more napkins. I ordered the baby churrasco and our server asked how I would like my steak cooked. I answered medium well but when it arrived it was cooked to medium at best. I had also ordered boiled yuca with my meal, which is one of my favorite sides to get at Las Vegas Cuban cuisine restaurant. The yuca was hard and not cooked all the way. The onions on top were raw and hard textured like shredded cabbage. The server never came by our table to ask if everything was okay. She walked around in circles like she was lost and was first day on her job. I had to ask for a check. Only then she came by and asked if we were okay. I paid cash. The bill was $62 and left $18 tip. I don't think I will be coming back to this location ever again. The experience was upsetting. When customers go to restaurants, their expectation of decent food and decent customer service should be given and not sought after. I don't recommend you go to this specific Las Vegas Cuban cuisine in Pembroke Pines location unless you look Hispanic because they will discriminate and give you different kind of crappy customer service and whatever cooked food.
