Contrary to other complaints made, this is by far THE BEST Cuban restaurant you can go to in Miami. I emphasize the word restaurant, not cafeteria like Latin America. You can go as casual as you want and feel at home; pets and smoking are permitted in their outdoor seating area.\r

I admit to the menu being cheesy for having the Spanish-to-English pronunciations, but let's face the reality of it...we're in Miami and we get a lot of tourists, many of which don't speak Spanish or have a clue how to pronounce some of the words. So this works to their advantage.\r

The food is fantastic and you get good value for your dollar. The waitresses are almost always good looking women, yet can be unattentive or a little too formal at times (unless you're a cop, then they're all over you! lol). Overall, I say to ignore all of the other negative reviews left on this page by other people and listen to this one. This is my favorite joint for Cuban food (so much so that I come here rather than eating the Cuban food made at home!). I love it, and am sure you will, too, if you go in there unbiased and just give it a try.\r

NOTE: They are no longer 24-hours! Currently they close at 12am Sunday-Thursday, and close at 3am Fridays and Saturdays...just a heads up.
Pros: Good-sized portions, cheaper than other restaurants
Cons: The waitresses tend to be unattentive at times
