Decor is nice, music is probably the best thing here. Dishes are pricey. The food did lack a little on taste. Overall it was a ok experience. read more

Cute Cuban restaurant on 8th street. I love the white tablecloth covered tables. The ceiling is hung with burlap bags depicting the Cuban provisinces. Very unique. Service was ok but then we were one table of 3 occupied. The chicken breast steak was tasty but not very tender. Salad on plate was a little wilted and really just a few lettuce leaves and mushy tomatoes. I was expecting a side salad à la Rinconcito Latino. Tostones were very hard to chew. The rabo encendido (the sole purpose of our visit) was quite pricey at $29 for a couple pieces of oxtail with very little sauce. Not the best. I love trying new places which can be hit or miss. Although my meal here was not terrible, nothing inspired me to return, read more

Excellent Cuban place with great atmosphere and very friendly and professional service. We all enjoyed the seafood, malanga, chicharrons, steak and chicken. Might be the best Cuban food in town. read more

The food is good, and so is the atmosphere and the service, but they need to add a cocktail and liquor menu, as the current one is very short or practically nonexistent. I was looking through the menu to order a drink or a glass of wine, and they didn't have any listed. This is something they should address, especially since they have a bar where they serve very good cocktai read more

Wajiro's Restaurant - Fried pork and steam vegetables - Cuban Near Me - Miami, Florida

We were in the neighborhood and decided to stop in for dinner--and we're so glad we did. Service was warm, friendly and professional. My husband ordered the Crema de Malanga, and despite being a notoriously picky eater, he declared it the best he's ever had. That alone speaks volumes. We also shared the Palomilla Wajira. The serving was generous however the steak itself could've used more seasoning, the real disappointment was the Jasmine rice it was served with. It's not traditional for this dish and unfortunately not one of our favorites. On the bright side, the Fufu de Plátano was absolutely delicious--comforting, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. Just as we were winding down, we were surprised by live music. The singer was phenomenal--engaging, talented, and added a vibrant energy to the evening. The ambiance overall was relaxed and pleasant, making it a lovely spot to unwind. We're already looking forward to coming back and exploring more of the menu. This place could easily become a neighborhood gem. read more

Wajiro's Restaurant - Chicken Cesar Salad - Cuban Near Me - Miami, Florida

Disappointing experience -- we won't be coming back. We went to El Gojiro as a family and asked for a fried fish fillet for our 7-year-old daughter. The waitress said yes, but instead brought out a whole fish with bones. When we pointed this out, instead of offering a solution, the waitress got upset and blamed us, saying we should've known they don't serve fish fillets. She spoke to other staff about us as if we were the problem, which was very unprofessional. Luckily, the manager stepped in and handled the situation respectfully. She replaced the dish and didn't charge us for the mistake. Still, the overall attitude and poor service left a bad impression. We won't be returning read more

The food is authentic Cuban food. They must have a whole team of Abuelitas in the back seasoning and cooking everything.

One of the best Cuban restaurants in all of Miami better than Sergio's, la carreta, Versailles, and malanga cafe in Pinecrest. Amazing food and service, friendly staff made me feel welcome, and love the live music read more

Food is good but beware when you pay your bill. Service charge is already included and when credit card bill is brought back it doesn't say "additional tip". If you didn't notice on your bill before you'll be adding 20% on top of the 15% they already add. This was for a party of 4. Usually service charge is added when it's larger parties. read more

El restaurants mas caro de Miami, que no te cojan de bobo! Cariiiisimo!! No cabe una mesa mas, los mojitos no son con Bacardi, un pescadito $100, una langostica otros $100. No pierdas tu tiempo! Una mierda! read more

Food was ok. Got the bill and it showed "service charge" for over $7. I asked the waitress what that was and was told that was the TIP. The bill was $44.xx They charged $3.xx Service charge was $7.xx What the heck! As a customer I should decide how much to leave for the tip. The way it was presented was not right. Made me feel they were trying to scam me. Not going back. I live 6 blocks away and drive by it all the time. Good bye. read more

De todos los restaurantes que e ido pro primera vez a este es donde único no regreso , las mesas súper pequeñas, dos platos llenas las mesas, las bebidas 1 mojito que era mas hielo que nada, el arroz Moro quemado y duro los granos, cojimos un pescado Bolador como plato fuerte, que les digo el plato viene con una langosta entera que parece estar congelada hace semanas no sele siente el savor a marisco, y los filete de pargo vienen sobre el liquido donde lo cosinan que parece como sopa cuando logras llegar a el a y $120 por el plato. Conclusión no lo recomiendo me parece que este lugar sigue por los meseros que son lo mejor . Y una recomendación cuando cojan un plato grande no dejen que el Manager les aga un video para TikTok ya que cuando habla sosteniendo la comide se ve como escupe sin in intención lógicamente pero aun es asqueroso. Nos gastamos $540 y nos quedamos con hambre porque la comida no sirve todo es un show read more

Fracaso total! No merece la pena ir ya que el precio del plato que tanto anuncian en las redes es bastante alto.

I visited this place for lunch today and it's an amazing spot although I went for a late lunch around 4pm and they only had about 4 tables being serve. The waitress name was Janet and she was simply awesome, the service was fast and great. The decoration is nice, and I wish I would of gone a bit later as they seem to have a live band playing. Would recommend this place to anyone that wants super good Cuban Food read more

Wajiro's Restaurant - Black Beans - Cuban Near Me - Miami, Florida

I call and order my usual. Pechuga a la plancha with 2 sides. I order (2) rice and beans. The girl on the phone says I can't do that, and she speaks to another employee and says I can. So I tell her I always order like that and they never give me a problem and then she says that she's not allowed to and I said well I would like to order anyways, thinking she would charge me for an additional rice and beans. she hangs up on me and I called back and I am blocked. When I call the number it seems like it's a forwarding from a cell phone number. I call through my husband's phone and I get through. Why would she block me because she doesn't wanna take my order?! This is why businesses go downhill because customer service is trash ! read more

Came here on a Saturday night after not being in Miami for nearly ten years. This place has always had good food and ambience. I had the churassco with moros and maduros. Even though it's a small place and was busy, the Food came out quick and freshly made. The live music was great and made the night a good experience. read more

We had gone to the Wajito Restaurant years ago and it was very good, but we just started going to another restaurant closer to us until the other day. We had a wonderful dinner! My husband had the whole fried whole fish it was quite delicious, I had the fried pork chunks very good also. The waiter we had was great, he gave us time to go over the menu and he also suggested different food options. The restaurant looks like a place in Cuba in the countryside. Very nicely decorated, and I brought you back to what Cuba might have look like many years ago.! The food was very good like homemade. If you have a chance, go and try it out see if you like it enjoy. read more

Cute spot, the food was pretty good too. My husband and I enjoyed our dinner. The service was good too

I have been going here for 25 years! This place has turned into a horrible place! The service is horrid, and this was a pick up order! Obviously they've survived on Uber because no excuse for this! Even argued with us that we never asked for bread! We did and dammit it's bread just give it to the person! I am so disappointed Only thing worth coming here again is the coldest beer in miami Que desgracia- my service and order was on Monday night at 7:00 pm Nov 1 2021! read more

Ordered carry out from their website, the pick up time was 25 mins when I arrive promptly the food wasn't ready waited an extra 30 mins. When I arrive at home all of our sides were missing and the server had a bad attitude to begin with. Went back to the restaurants to request our food the same lady still with an attitude attended us. She told us the quantity's of the food and apologized with a bad attitude then proceeded to give us the wrong quantities of food. Defiantly don't recommend this restaurant the service is the worst. read more

We stopped here during a weeknight close to their closing time. We had stopped in on a Saturday night but walked out right away as the music was blasting. But during the week there was no loud music. Phew! Sitting was our choice, they brought our water and menus. Not sure if yelp displays the type of cuisine but it's Cuban. You get complimentary Cuban bread with the butter on the side. We ordered tops Viejo, Morris and yuca(I like the yuca with a lot of mojito) but this one had too little but ultimately it was ok as the owner was walking around just as we received our food, so as any good owner or. Manager, he asked if everything was alright I told him that I would like more mojito he then told his staff to bring us more. My husband ordered the palomilla steak with white rice and yuca. .The food was very good definitely will be going back. Very affordable! read more

So I was at Wajiro's recently for lunch with my crew from work. We have visited Wajiro's when we go to a workshop in that neighborhood and have also been satisfied with it until now... For some reason, the service was a bit slower than usual without the restaurant being super packed which just leads me to believe they were just understaffed ... The food is usually very tasty! I ordered Picadillo which I've had there before and the reason I order it there is because usually it's super non-greasy and so tasty! I never eat picadillo so this is when I get to indulge! However, this time around, it was sooooo greasy! My picadillo was swimming in a sea of oil! Yuck! I mean enough oil to fry some maduros in! Gross! And the taste was not as good! I'm not sure if the regular chef was off, fired, or just having a bad day, but it was not to my liking! I will say the server is nice and polite but I'd say a little bit slow..so not sure if I'll be back or maybe try ordering something else... read more

I don't know much Spanish, and the wait staff was very helpful in treating me the same as any other guest. They spoke in their best English and it showed appreciation for my business. I ordered a chicken milanese with moro and maduros. It was piping hot when it arrived and juicy. The chicken wasn't overcooked and the marinara sauce was nice. Oh, and the cheese was out of this world. I forgot to take a picture. Also, the wait staff made every effort to keep my glass full of water. It was nice to not have to constantly ask. I've never been here before, mostly because I don't speak Spanish. But, the staff here is pleasant and always smiling. They earned a repeat customer. The rice was flavorful and the sweet plantains were fried perfectly. Everything was tasty. You must try here. read more

Amazing family experience, food was delicious and the music espectacular. Will visit again soon.

My wife and I came here to have a couple drinks with her sister. We ordered 3 margaritas. First off, they were the most tasteless margaritas ever. We chatted for a little bit during some very depressing singing, but enjoyed a comedian named Berna or a few minutes. We decided not to eat there and I handed my credit card to the waitress to run it for the 3 drinks. She came back with just the part for me to sign, without the itemized bill. It was $48 for the three drinks, plus there was a section for the tip. I went to ask the waitress how much 3 small margaritas cost. She said $13 each, plus she had already added almost $6 for the tip and a surcharge. I signed it and left zero for the extra tip on the merchant copy, since she already added her own in. The reason I gave a 2 star review is because the comedian was funny. Otherwise a very poor choice for a place for drinks. Glad we stopped at 1 each and left. read more
