Chose this Cuban Café based on the reviews and the food was outstanding I had the Arosa Blanco and Pollo. ( White rice and chicken) Very very delicious. Do you all of my American friends I would highly suggest this for different taste in culture! Yum

Great place to get cooked meat. They are adding too much salt to picadillo but they usually cook neutral taste. Not spicey. Way cheaper than Whole foods. Don't buy their fish except salmon. They had good turkey.

I ordered a Paella valenciana for 4 people for pickup. It was amazing, had plenty of seafood and everyone loved it. Everything about this Paella was perfection and it was ready on time.

Amazing food at great prices. The portions are so massive and so cheap that it's almost like they're just giving the food away for free. Highly recommended if you love Latin food and haven't been there yet. 10 stars. Hands down.

Best Value in Miami. Period. Daily $4.99 specials that are extremely generous with lots of variety of sides, soups, and beans. One of the completas can easily feed two people. Everything they make is decent to absolutely delicious. Maybe not the best place to frequent...Read More
