Incredible energy, master craftsmanship, and the best Croqueta Preparada in town! If you are on Calle Ocho in Little Havana, Sanguich de Miami is an absolute must-stop. From the moment you walk up, the aesthetic is stunning clean, modern-vintage vibes, spotless counters, and an open layout where you can watch an army of cooks moving like a well-oiled machine, assembling and pressing sandwiches with crazy precision. Despite the popularity and constant flow of people, the service was lightning fast, friendly, and welcoming from start to finish. We started things off the right way with a strong, rich cafecito to set the tone, and then dove straight into the sandwiches: * El Cubano: Prepared to absolute perfection with house-cured ham, juicy roasted pork (lechón), Swiss cheese, crisp pickles, and yellow mustard on Cuban bread. The craftsmanship is 10/10--the press on the bread gives it that loud, buttery crunch, and the cheese melt is flawless. I'll be honest: purely on a personal flavor-preference level, the classic Cubano profile is not for me. But looking at how authentically and meticulously they execute it, you can't deny they make one of the finest versions you'll find. * Croqueta Preparada: This right here completely stole the show. Take that same incredible setup--pork, spiced ham, melted Swiss, pickles, and mustard--and press two piping-hot, velvety ham croquetas right inside the bread. The richness and crunch from the bread combined with the creamy, savory center of the croquetas is pure indulgence. It is so ridiculously good that I honestly could have eaten ten of them back-to-back if I hadn't already eaten earlier that morning. Absolute perfection. Between the house-made ingredients, the electric atmosphere, and the sheer quality of the food, this spot lives up to every bit of the hype. Even if the classic Cubano isn't your personal style, the Croqueta Preparada alone will make you a believer. I already know what I'm getting on my next trip back to Little Havana! read more

Daniel Figueredo! I still have the same opinion of your cafeteria, little space, ridiculous lines, too much waiting for the order and absurd prices! I have never had problems with any of your workers and I have never been violent in your establishment, on the contrary I've always been very respectful and greeted everyone as I walk in with a smile on my face. On the other hand your wife Rosa Romero who was the waitress helping me decided to deny me service, and forced me to exit the cafeteria with the excuse that I made a personal comment to a fellow employee of your establishment, and I very decently left the cafeteria and explained my point of view about the situation with one of her employees at Sprint. Besides the fact that your wife and your fellow employees came in to my job with a really bad attitude, us at sprint very professionally provided are best customer service resulting in finding you guys the best solution. The issue is that people like you who think they are better than the world and who are always right, when they are wrong, they CANNOT admit it. DANIEL FIGUEREDO you send THE POLICE TO MY WORK CENTER (Sprint) FOR WRITING A BAD REVIEW TO YOUR CAFETERIA !!!! LET ME REMIND YOU U.S. LEGALLY ALLOW FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION, IF YOU AND YOUR WIFE HAD THE AUDACITY OF DENYING ME SERVICE TO ME FOR NO REASON , THEN I HAVE MY RIGHT TO EXPRESS MY OPINION OF YOUR CAFETERIA. Put evidence of me acting violent of demonstrating any harm to any of your employees in your establishment, you have cameras , I'll wait. Show the world how I behaved and how your wife forced me out and denied service. read more

I came here with my boyfriend - I got the Pan Con Bestic and he got a Cubano (pictured in the review). I have to say this is without a doubt, one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. The meat was incredibly tender and flavorful, and the sauce and potatoes made this sandwich perfect. One minor problem was that we were advised to eat less meat in our sandwiches, with an ailment I have a lot to eat - I've been eating mostly veg my whole life, too much meat can be nauseating. . It wasn't noted in the order and I didn't want to risk being sick for the rest of the day leaving half a sandwich on my own. That was 4 down on my money and 1 wasted. The customers, beyond that, are amazing. We have ours to wait on, an employee has offered us a free table and has removed someone from his consent to make sure we can't take someone else's table. Table to clear The woman was also strange - we were happy with this employee. When we didn't go there to ourselves. It was a chaotic, film-making process during the best of times for Kodoch's shop. When we did eat, but when we went there for the first time, it got really disorganized and annoying. But other than that it's a better experience. The A/C felt amazing, and the food was fresh and tasted clean. Apart from mild nausea I experienced, my friend and hotel didn't feel lethargic after a carb-heavy meal. Will be back next time I'm in Miami, maybe after the lunch rush. read more

Entering Sanguich de Miami feels like stepping into a vibrant hub of flavor and culture. The atmosphere is alive with the aroma of their signature sandwiches and the chatter of fellow diners. The star of the menu? The Cuban sandwich itself - a delightful fusion of textures and flavors. The bread strikes the perfect balance between crispy and soft, enveloping layers of savory ham, gooey cheese, tangy pickles, and zesty mustard. Each bite offers a tantalizing taste experience, promising a journey through Miami's culinary landscape. However, be prepared for the hustle and bustle of the small space. It tends to get crowded quickly, leading to inevitable wait times. I found myself queuing under the Miami sun for about 15 minutes before placing my take-out order, and another 20 minutes passed before my sandwiches were ready. The same patience applies if you're dining in, with lines forming inside or by the door. Despite the wait, Sanguich de Miami's service stands out. They accept credit cards and Apple Pay, and their efficient notification system alerts you when your order is prepared. While the experience may test your patience, the reward of savoring their Version of the Cuban sandwich makes it all worthwhile. The staff's warm hospitality adds to the welcoming ambiance, making Sanguich de Miami a must-visit spot for anyone craving a taste of Miami's culinary delights. read more

I had the most wonderful experience at Sanguich De Miami. The food was delicious, and I loved the ambiance. The restaurant was very clean, and there were not many people there when I visited on a Tuesday afternoon. It has a very casual feel to it, but it is still elegant in its own way. I ordered the Cuban Sandwich and Pan Con Bistec. The Cuban Sandwich was perfectly seasoned with just enough spice to make it interesting, but not overpowering. It had ham, pork, cheese, pickles and onions on it. The bread had just the right amount of chewiness to make it delicious to eat without being too hard or soft. It also came with a side of plantains that were cooked just right so that they weren't too hard or mushy either! The Pan Con Bistec was also delicious! It came with steak cooked medium rare with lettuce, tomato and onion slices along with an avocado spread overtop everything else which made this dish even more flavorful than it already was from just being cooked with steak alone! This dish came with plantains as well which were perfect for dipping into the juices created by the steak juice which dripped onto them while eating this dish because they added just the right amount of flavor to them as well! The service was excellent as well! Our server was very attentive and made sure that everything was good before we left. read more

I came here based on the buzz I've heard about Sanguich and their reputation for serving authentic Cuban sandwiches and other delicious foods. I was fortunate to find parking right in front of the place, and upon entering, I was impressed by the clean and inviting interior. I decided to go with their regular Cuban sandwich, and let me tell you, I've had my fair share of Cuban sandwiches in the past, but this one truly stood out. It was an absolute delight. The sandwich was generously filled with savory meats, the cheese was perfectly melted, and the overall taste and texture were rich, buttery, and crunchy. It was a flavor explosion in every bite. However, the only drawback that prevented this from being a 5-star review was the slow service. Despite the lack of a crowd both inside and at the ordering window outside, it took a rather inexplicable 20 minutes to prepare a single sandwich. That said, I would highly recommend giving Sanguich a try, but my advice would be to either order ahead or allocate some extra time to ensure you have enough time to savor their delicious offerings. The quality of their Cuban sandwich is well worth it! read more

Being born and raised in Miami and having tasted all their is in the Latin Culture. I was very disappointed with this food spot. I ordered a pan con bistec, (you'd think, can't go wrong with that), As I'm eating my sandwich, I start to notice something funny about the texture. I put my sandwhich down and take a peak inside to notice that the meat was red as a tomato, very undercooked. Also, the sauce they put in it (home made according to owner) was the cause of the biggest upset stomach ever! I haven't even mentioned that my sandwhich and anothers community leader sandwhich took 40 minutes. The portion we received was very well overpriced, you just got a small sandwhich in a basket. I can get the same thing at Latin Cafe which a bigger portion size, my meat cooked well, fries and coke for the amount of money I paid for. The owners wife had a very snotty attitude and I you can tell she was just filling in, I mean I hope she was because she had awful service. You can tell this wasn't her passion. As a community leader, I advise against this location. read more

If I could give Sanguich 100 stars I would. Not only is the food INCREDIBLE (I ate there twice on a 3 day trip), but more importantly, the people who work there are literally angels. After finishing my cubano outside of the pick-up window yesterday, I fainted from dehydration and heat, and every single person at the restaurant took care of me as if I were family. I can't begin to express my gratitude for this restaurant and how much they care for their customers. A truly special place in Little Havana (as evidenced by the unbelievable Cubans, cafecito, croquette, and beautiful bathroom). If you're going to grab from the pick-up window, I recommend ordering online in advance or order at the window and go for a walk around little Havana while you wait for your order! If you have time to wait for a table, the inside is so pretty and lively - I'm excited to dine in next time I'm in Miami. They also have an outdoor area in the back! read more

I have been to many Cuban restaurants in Miami and I have to say that Sanguich De Miami is one of my favorites. The pan con lechon sandwich is delicious. The pork is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The sandwich comes with a side of rice and beans, which are also amazing. I also loved the Cuban sandwich, which was packed with meat, cheese and vegetables. The service was excellent at Sanguich De Miami. Our waitress was very friendly and helpful when we were trying to decide what to order. The restaurant itself has a nice atmosphere with comfortable seating and an open kitchen where you can watch your food being prepared by chefs in their traditional guayabera shirts. Overall I had a great experience at Sanguich De Miami and would recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Cuban food in Miami Beach! read more

Sanguich in Little Havana is an absolute gem for sandwich lovers! The Cubano is *phenomenal*--perfectly pressed with tender, flavorful meat, melted cheese, and just the right amount of tangy pickles and mustard. Every bite is a delicious reminder of why this place is so special. The croquetas are also a must-try--crispy on the outside, creamy on the inside, and packed with flavor. The attention to detail in every dish is impressive, and you can tell they use high-quality ingredients. My only complaint? They close *way* too early! I wish they stayed open longer so I could satisfy my cravings for their amazing sandwiches at night. But honestly, it's worth planning your day around their hours--Sanguich is *that* good. If you're in Miami, do yourself a favor and stop by. You won't regret it! read more

Okay, to start, these sandwiches are mediocre. Although they are not bad, they are not good--at least not as good as the giddy praise that transplants and out-of-towners give this place. You may think highly of this eatery if you have never tried a typical Cuban sandwich, pan with bistec, or pan con lechon from any cafeteria in Miami, Hialeah, Coral Gables, or Miami Beach. However, if you have gone elsewhere, you are aware that this business strikes a balance between being pricey and lacking in quality. It's in an excellent location and looks good. To acquire the authentic Cuban sazon, follow the suggestion of a fat man and visit any petrol station that has a cafeteria. read more

Located inside a small shopping center is one of the best Cuban sandwiches in Miami. There was a small line coming out the door which is expected when it's the weekend. The restaurant has counter seating and a few tables. Service is pretty quick so you won't be waiting long for a table. We ordered croquettas as an appetizer. They were excellent and came with a sauce. We ordered two Cuban sandwiches and it truly was the best sandwich I've ever had. Everything was perfect. There's a lot of meat in the sandwich. I ended up taking half to go and was able to enjoy it again for dinner. I will definitely come back and will probably order the same thing!! read more

I've heard so many good things about this place and I had to go out there and get some grub. I did not have anywhere to sit and it was very uncomfortable standing up. None of the staff were really concerned. I finally found a place with my wife and it took us another 30 minutes to get our food. I thought the food would make up for the wait. I was wrong. Food was undercooked and they put a sauce in that I was allergic to... and they didn't have it on the menu so How was i supposed to know. The customer service was horrible and it just kept getting worse. Owners were there and they let all this happen, i was very surprised. read more

This place is a must if you're a fan of Cuban sandwiches done right! Sanguich De Miami takes a classic and makes it gourmet -- the bread is perfectly pressed, the pork is tender and flavorful, and the mustard and pickles are balanced just right. You can tell everything is house-made and crafted with love. The shop itself is small but charming, and the service is fast and friendly. I highly recommend the traditional Cubano or the pan con bistec -- both are unforgettable. Parking can be a little tricky, but it's worth the effort. One of the best sandwich spots in Miami, hands down. read more

Food was amazing. I had the Cuban and it was PERFECT. The bread was crispy, the pork was juicy, and every bite had that rich, classic flavor you hope for but rarely find. I've lived in Miami most of my life and this might be the best Cuban sandwich I've ever had no exaggeration. Yes, it gets crowded and seating is tight, but honestly, I didn't even care. The line moved fast, the vibe was fun, and the staff were friendly and efficient. It's exactly the kind of place that reminds you why Miami is such a food city. Can't wait to come back and next time I'm getting the batido too. read more

The highlight of my visit was definitely the pan con bistec. The combination of tender steak, onions, and perfectly toasted Cuban bread created a mouthwatering flavor explosion. However, one thing to note is that the waiting line was quite long to get seated. Despite the popularity of the restaurant, the extended wait time was a bit inconvenient. Nevertheless, once I got my order, the quality of the food made up for the wait. The service at Sanguich de Miami was friendly and efficient, despite the busy atmosphere. The staff members were accommodating and helpful. read more

Doesn't look like much when you walk past, but I was practically dying of hunger so I popped in. The definition of a hole-in-the-wall. I got the regular hamburger and wow... there are no words. A classic burger done right. Crisp bun, juicy patty, stuffed with all the essentials (ketchup, shredded lettuce, tomato, and pickles). There's about a million options available between the menu board and wall full of specials, so it can get a little overwhelming, but you really can't go wrong. Not much else to say besides go see for yourself! You won't be disappointed. read more

I've been eating Cuban sandwiches my whole life and this is by far the best one I've ever had, no question. The meat is sliced thin, which I love, and piled high. The cheese was melted perfectly. The sanguich was pressed to perfection. The pickles were crunchy and even the mustard was good. When we were in line to order, the people before us could not stop giving their praises. Everyone that works there was friendly and kind. And I mean, even nice enough to help people back out of their parking spaces onto busy Calle Ocho. Extremely impressed read more
