Nostalgia! Que Rico extra sauce please ! Still the best! Hits the spot each and every time! read more

Great food and great, friendly service. The fritanga wrap and sandwhich are both great, but I think the sandwhich wins. Both super full of food. The fries are also good and crispy. The only thing that wasn't that good were the croquetas. Tasted like made from frozen. Oh and amazing old school music (English). Need their playlist. read more

I was debating between a 3 and a 4. He ordered for us in Spanish, so there should have been no confusion. But there was. We ordered a 16" Ham and Cheese sandwich to share. One side would have no pickles and I would get those extra pickles. SCORE! Well, first we received the plantain chips with some sort of vinegar? Not sure if that is what it is. That is what it tasted like. This was a nice snack. We each ordered a Fanta, again he ordered everything, we received two Crush sodas. Ok, well they exchanged the sodas. When we got the sandwiches, I looked to eat a couple of the pickles. Well, there was one on one half of my 8 inch sandwich. Not only that, there was pork on it. He did not order that. Heck, I could have ordered a ham and cheese sandwich in Spanish. The server had a whole discussion with him. I don't know what she said but she finally took away the sandwich. We got a new one and one to go. The sandwich had a couple pickles on each side, not enough. Anyway, there was also very little of the "special sauce". This happens to be pickle sauce. Anyway, he asked for more for me and I got the whole bottle. I used a LOT. That stuff is delicious and dangerous. :) The sandwich itself was alright. I mean, some of the ham was hot, some of it was cold. Too much confusion and annoyance here. This place has been there for a while. He said it was better with the previous owners. They had a better oven. I would go back. read more

Best Cuban style sandwich in town, highly recommend, never have you tasted a sandwich like this

So I hope this review finds all of you doing well! Well I found myself in the Little Havana area today and after running a few errands I had a craving for a Sarussi sandwich, which has been a staple Cuban sandwich shop here in Miami about as far back as I can remember. This place is really a part of Hispanic Miami history not too mention that these guys were featured on an episode of "Man vs Food" with Adam Richman. That said, me and Sarussi have some all good history from back in the day so I made a point of stopping by for lunch. Location I visited is on SW 8 St and SW 67 Ave, which has been here since 1964. Pretty much the same location I have been visiting since forever; however, they do have other locations now. Not too many issues with Parking today but be warned as on weekdays this place is jumping and parking can be challenging. Plenty of parking in the surrounding areas but the strip mall it is located in has limited parking. Thinking you will just park in the mall across the street.... Think again as your call will get towed, so don't risk it or it will cost you some money. So upon arriving staff were very friendly and greeted me and not too long after I was sitting at the counter. Just a heads up that you may need to practice your survival Spanish while you are here but hey it's Miami right! All part of the experience! Atmosphere here is very typical of most Hispanic cafeterias which as you can imagine hits home for me. No worries on the menu as it is in English. Tables are available but call me nostalgic as sitting at the counter takes me back to my days in high school! So on this occasion I decided to keep it traditional and go with their 8" Pork Sandwich with onions, cheese, potato stick fries and their world famous Sarussi sauce. What can I say but when I took that first bite, it was like visiting an old friend I had not seen in quite some time. I think the angles sang and I heard choir music! It was totally awesome not just because it tasted great which it did but Sarussi has always done a phenomenal job with their bread. It's the perfect combination of warm and soft yet still crunchy. It really ties everything together so well. Not saying that you can't have a bad experience here but for the most part they typically knock it out of the park with their sandwiches. That said, If you really want to round out the Hispanic sandwich experience you may want to order one of their Cuban fruit based shakes. Mamey "aka Sapote" is my favorite but you can never go wrong with a Papaya "aka Fruta Bomba" shake. Rounding out the overall experience today, I ordered a "Cortadito" which is pretty much an Italian macchiato which was very good as well. At its roots this is a multi-generation owned Hispanic business that has been serving the Miami community for as far back as I can remember. If you are visiting Miami or are just in the area and really want to try some Miami history, you definitely want to stop in and give Sarussi's a try. Truthfully, I don't think you will be disappointed! Enjoy and Bon appétit m'es amis! read more

Amazing you walk in and the everyone has a smile on there face. Croquettes delicious . Sandwich excellent

I used to come here a long, long time ago... so today, as I drove by, I decided to turn around and pay Sarussi a visit. It is definitely different from what I remember as far as decor... but the churrasco sandwich was still very decent , and their signature sauce is actually the same. I think that one of their special sandwiches is the Cuban Sarussi, and from what I saw on reviews, I think it still is. Good place overall for a good sandwich and a cold beer. Give it a try when in the area. read more

I always order pickup and it's always good and fresh. I happened to arrive early this last time and watched what the ladies do. They definitely work hard and know what they are doing. Nice job the sandwiches are always good and hot! read more

After a friend hyped up the sandwiches here, I had to come try it out. I can safely say that this is the best Cuban sandwich I've ever had. From the moment I got it, just the smell alone had me over the moon. Sarussi has been featured on the popular TV show, Man vs. Food. The bread is what you first are mesmerized by. This is glistening in the light and is so fresh and soft. Then the meats - the ham and pork is so flavorful and generously added. The cheese is also super subtle yet adds a great chewiness to the sandwich. The pickles add a nice crunch and tartness to balance the savory and fatty meats and cheese. Finally. The secret sauce. That sauce, so tangy, so thick, and so good. It's imperative to have for this sandwich alone. Overall, for the best Cuban sandwich known to man, come here. You won't be disappointed. read more

Sarussi had a lot of hype back in the day but it has died down. However, the food is as good as it's always been. I love coming here for lunch. Their menu is small but full of solid choices. Their sandwiches are where it's at. My go to order is the churrasco sandwich with their special house sauce and un batido de banana (banana smoothie). SOOOO GOOOD! read more

Went there sandwiches are goof but 14.00 for 8 inch Cuban sandwich is insane . Sandwich was good but pricey

This is an OG spot! It came from a recommendation from a cuban who has lived in Miami for 30+ years saying it's delicious. And it sure was, I got the original cuban sandwich. The cuban bread is buttery and perfect! The limonade is fresh and perfectly tart and sweet at the same time. Parking is limited, but as expected for being Calle ocho 8th street OG spot. You're better off getting your sandwich to go at this particular location. read more

Terrible, terrible, terrible. Whole restaurant was empty and the food was still terrible. I ordered the Fritanga wrap and they just give you a wrap full of oil and sauce with one scoop of rice with none of the other ingredients then had the audacity saying that's how the items comes. Also their cups are disgusting, I swear they don't wash their cups, cause why the hell did my can of Coke taste like damn oil. I do not recommend this Cuban cuisine place. The other Sarussi has nothing to do with this abysmal, crappy place. read more

Highly recommend their sandwiches this place will never disappoint. Order their original sarussi sandwich and you'll be just fine.

Sarussi Subs has great food. My favorite is the chicken bowl and the steak bowl. The flavors are so delicious with a great avocado and cream sauce to go with the dish. The fried cheese and plantains make the dish very diverse and the food taste yummy and fresh. read more

I heard about this place on IG and was excited to try it. I can honestly say this was by far the worst food I have ever eaten in Miami. We ordered the Fritanga wrap and the Cuban sandwich. The gallon pinto was very flavorless and the churrasco was dry and rubbery. The 'secret sauce' they use taste like salty mayo mixed with cheese sauce. The Cuban sandwich was NOT a traditional Cuban sandwich. It was dry, smothered in margarine (not even real butter) and did not have pork in it. So basically a ham sandwich with Swiss cheese and lathered in margarine which over powered the taste of anything in that sandwich. At a whopping g $23 gif the wrap and $19 for the Cuban sandwich, one wound expect a decent meal. Nope! Mayor fail and lesson learned. read more

Sarussi was one of the first places I ate a Cuban sandwich nearly ten years ago. Apparently August 23rd is National Cuban Sandwich Day and my husband and I found ourselves nearby for dinner. How convenient! We were on the early side of dinner so the place was completely empty. It was clear the staff was enjoying their little break, but we were able to grab their attention to order. We opted for two 8 inch sandwiches - the original Cuban and Vaina Loca which is ropa vieja, beans, maduro, mozzarella, tomato, potato strips and secret sauce. We also opted for tostones to start! Their Cuban sandwich has been featured on shows like Man vs. Food but it's a little different than others because it's not pressed and features "secret sauce." It's also brushed with butter and toasted... Maybe some garlic too? Even so, we enjoyed both of the sandwiches and tostones. The 8 inch is more than enough for one person in my opinion. We ended up taking a little bit to-go of each because we couldn't finish! All in all, Sarussi is a solid casual Cuban spot if you're looking for no-frills grub. I wouldn't say it's the best Cuban sandwich in Miami, but hits the spot if that's what you're craving! read more

This establishment never disappoints! Aside from the fact that they have been around for many years, the Sarrusi Sub and the signature secret sauce has never changed! It is delicious! read more

I love these sandwiches. Their spread is Tasty and unique. I feel that eating it it is truly a special treat so whenever I travel I like to purchase a couple for the road! read more

Cuban sandwich, with lots of meats, pickles, special sauce and some grease on top of the bread before it is put in the oven. The special sauce is good, it replaces the mayonnaise. Seems to be the place to have a Cuban sandwich, tried others but a bit on the dry side. This was was A-ok! read more

Amazing food, even better service! Can't wait to go back and try something new on the menu

Aside from the Man Vs Food signs everywhere, this place hasn't changed much since I started coming here sometime back in the mid 90s. This is not the usual Cuban sandwich place, for one they don't flatten it in a press; instead they butter it up, toast it, and then they use a sauce that is unique to the Sarussi experience. The sauce is where it's at IMHO, so don't be afraid to ask for the bottle and add more if you want a little bit more of it's magic. Prices are reasonable for a 8" sandwich, and portion size is more than adequate for most people. Service can be hit or miss, but keep in mind, this IS Miami. :) read more

Food and service is great but place looks run down and a bit depressing. Prices are a bit high but given this economy, it's understandable. Let's hope either the new administration in DC, business will get a break. read more

This place is definitely a Miami staple, I've been coming here since I was a kid in the early 90's. The sub style Cuban sandwiches are very unique and delicious. They have their own in house sauce they put on the sandwiches! So fire! read more

Came to eat breakfast this morning They were taking very long to even attend me, they serve the guy next to me breakfast, mind you they haven't taken my order. By the time they get to me they tell me the breakfast is over... The lies fly right out of the mouth of the owner that the kitchen was already picked up. Picked up!! Are you closing so early in the morning? No !! The right thing to do is serve the breakfast since I was already there sitting next to the customer which happens to be 3 more co workers Plus we always leave excellent tips. Well the story ends like this. I will never recommend another person to this place. Professional customer service coming from an owner would have been to honor the breakfast. Un Profesional & possibly racist. read more

I've gotten the original sandwich twice with mariquitas & Fried Malanga & it's been delicious both times. Definitely returning soon. Best part is it's 5 minutes from my job. I forgot to take pictures cause I was really hungry lol. read more

Staff was friendly. Ordered a sandwich. Bread was warm but meat was cold. Cheese couldn't even melt. Asked them to heat it up. They warmed the bread again so it was rock hard. Sent it back a second time since the meat and cheese were still cold. Finished my soda and went to McDonalds. read more

Skip this place. Don't let the Man V Food hype fool you. The pan con bistec tastes like pickles and the meat in the fritanga wrap ($22 by the way, for a small wrap) is flavorless and hard. You can get an entire plate of actual fritanga for less than I paid for that wrap. Service was subpar. read more

Some friends had told me that this was the place for the best Cuban sandwich. So hubby and I ventured over on a week day for lunch. The first issue is the parking situation. Small strip shopping center with very limited parking, and no parking allowed around the residential area just behind the restaurant. The place itself is VERY casual, brightly lit, and very colorfully decorated with an odd combination of customer pictures, t-shirts and flags from all over. Although it was pretty empty, it took a while for the waitress to address us. We split the 16" original Cuban sandwich and a lemonade (they didn't have the orange juice). Lemonade was good but a bit expensive at over $5. We finally got the sandwich about 20 minutes later. Definitely a generous portion. It was very crunchy and tasty, but a bit dry. For the second half I ordered additional "sauce" and it made all the difference. Not the traditional Cubano, but good if you want to try something different. Service wasn't "rude" but definitely not friendly and pretty slow. Glad we tried it but probably won't be back... read more

Old stale food. We ordered four Media Noche sandwiches, all four were hard as rocks which means they are old breads. I've heard of this place being a staple for Miami Cubans but it has been let go by a lot. I don't think it's the same it used to be. read more

Several things happened during my visit to this cafeteria. - After I checked in on Yelp, a 20% off coupon came up on my phone. When I showed it to the waitress, said they are not honoring any coupons because they have a new owner. - The Cuban sandwich we got was good, toasty, oven baked, but the bread did not taste fresh, it tasted like day old bread. It had lots of ham, almost no roast pork. - The beef empanada was nice and hot with lots of filling, but it was fried, not baked. - When the waitress was cleaning up our baskets and table, she spilled all the bread crumbs from the basket on my short and the booth where I was seated. I thought...she will be coming in a bit to clean.... No...after like 5 minutes, I had to ask her to please clean up. She was folding silverware..... - Not my greatest Cuban food experience. read more

This isn't the most authentic Cuban sandwich, from what I understand, but it was our favorite during our time in Miami. The garlic butter on top makes it super yummy and appealing. We went around 11:30 AM on our way to the airport and our food was prepared quickly and came out hot and fresh. The empanadas the kids got were tasty as well. And to top it off, the service was great, which was especially appreciated when traveling with small children. Recommended! read more

Great food! Cuban was the best!!! Had a good chicken wrap too! Will definitely come back!

I came here expecting an authentic, "the locals eat here" type of experience but was let down. The Cuban sandwich was off - it was weirdly buttery and garlicky with the wrong type of bread, and the flavors weren't remarkable. The joint definitely has a local diner-esque vibe, but I wish the food quality was there to match. read more

Ordered the "churrasco" sandwich. Miami native here-- I know churrasco when I see it and that meat in my sandwich is not it. It's palomilla steak. The flavor of the sandwich was not bad but that price tag slapped me silly. Overpriced. Then they pull the whole asking for tips stunt even though you literally just went to pick up the order you called in. Charging me a fee for using apple pay, not putting the ingredients inside the sandwich and charging at full price, and asking for tips? Girl bye. read more
