    Torta De Santiago.
    Lili S.

    The food is good. I ask for the regular water. It served " Purified. Water ". At least is you charge me 3.89 for the purified water, invert a little more and buy " Spring water". Another thing, I asked for a Spanish dessert called " Tarta De Santiago" ( picture above). Was old, and is neither similar to the original. On top of that if you pay with a credit card, will be charged 4.00 USD more. For me ridiculous, but nobody told me. The waitress is not so nice.

    I been her twice for cuban musician singers concert. Love the place, small restaurant but very cozy. Service excellent always the girls are on top of everyone. We orders appetizers and all are very taste and prices rational. The wine house bottle is good and only 18$. The ambient are great, bathroom clean. Cant wait to go one day to have dinner and taste the real food. Recommend 100%.

    Fairly new restaurant but this place is absolutely amazing!! Delicious and for an awesome price! So worth it! Their croquetas are on point and come in a wide selection of fillings. I had the chorizo and the cod...OMG YUM! With a small dab of the best aioli you will taste! Also had the cream of the day- pumpkin. I would definitely make this a regular! Great spanish food!

    A great tasting Churrasco !

    Wow ! What a find . We stumbled onto this place - great tasting Spanish food . The place is a haven for Soccer fans - especially if you go for Spain. Apparently place gets packed on Fridays & Saturday nights with on going games & live entertainment. But the food - fantastic ! Great service. Not easy to find ( it's in the back of the strip mall but SO worth it ! Come and enjoy a great meal , I did ‼.

    Amazing! From the starters to paella to the Cubana cafe ... everything was delicious!  A definite must.

    We came here for dinner on our first night in Miami. We made reservations but it said outdoor patio…read morewasn't available. Regardless when we arrived they sat us outside which is exactly what we were hoping for. Our server was nice at first. Explained all the popular dishes got our drinks out very quickly. I think she stole our table from someone else because shortly after someone came and we told them we put our order in and he seemed a little bothered. Unfortunately, our other server disappeared and never checked up on us. We pretty much didn't have any napkins during our entire duration of our meal. At least that part was good. We started off with a couple of mojitos and their Vaca Frita Tostones. You get these homemade maduro tostones topped off with shreeded beef in a moon sauce, pickled onion, and aji Amarillo aioli. A very delicious dish that didn't last long. Shortly after we received our main dish. I really hate when they do that. My wife ordered their Abuelas Ropa Vieja and I ordered their Masa de Puerco Chino. My wife didn't really care for her dish much. 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.

I would absolutely recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Little Havana. We started with The Guac, Aji Tuna Poppers, and Avocado Salad. The Tuna Poppers came with 3 spicy tuna crispy rice and were delicious, however the Avocado Salad truly shined. All the ingredients tasted fresh, and the cumin lime vinaigrette was to die for. I would return for this salad alone! I ordered the Charred Salmon as my entree, and it was fantastic. The sweet potato purée paired with the slaw were complimenting sides to the dish. The hit of the table was the Mahi and Coconut Shrimp Cazuela. Lastly, the staff was phenomenal. We had a large party, but everything came out correctly and in a timely manner.

Wanted a Cubano sandwich immediately upon arrival, so we came straight to Havana 1957. This spot has been recreating 1950s Havana since 2010, right down to the vintage memorabilia and the whole "Un Dia En La Habana" concept, and it's since grown into a small chain across Miami and even Vegas. The Ocean Drive location does it right: great service, very friendly and fast, food that was amazing across the board. Loved my first taste of a traditional, genuine Cuban sandwich, ham, roast pork, Swiss, pickles, mustard, all pressed together and served with a mountain of shoestring fries, as close to the source as I could ask for stateside. Ordered a rum and coke and they hand it to you in a genuinely giant glass, perfect for getting the party started, even though it was a random Monday afternoon. Vibes and atmosphere were immaculate the whole visit. Great first stop in Miami, and a great way to kick off the week that followed.
