    Chicken Chaufa
    Cristina O.

    Hate to say it but it's my 3rd time here & I'm just not a fan. The space is lovely & servers (including the robot ones!) are great but the food is not my fave. I used to go all the time for lunch when it was Bocas & loved it! They had great lunch specials with variety. Salads, ceviches & other light options. Now? Not so much. The menu itself is at once "all over the place" yet also not enough options for the types of things I would want for lunch. Too much pork & other meats (including baby animal). Don't like the seasoning on their chicken, did not like the chicken chaufa & was not a fan of the salmon carpaccio. Maybe I'll give the fried chicken a try someday but for now, I'll just stick to their mint lemonade.

    Came here with my best friend from NC after hearing and seeing about it from a YouTuber in Miami. Very mellow ambiance when you first step in. Many say they come here for the fried chicken which was one of the things we ate. When you pick on the chicken and you see lightly battered fried it is and juicy you know it's good. Absolutely delicious fried chicken and probably one of the best I had. We also had the tuna ceviche and the chaufa with shrimp. The tuna ceviche was very delicious and flavorful. Same with the Shrimp Chaufa. Absolutely flavorful and delicious. We also had the flan and it also came with a side of ice scream. It was to die for. The cream was kind of like a honey caramel with a hint of rum. Super delicious and the ice cream you can tell instantly by the freshness and the unique taste that it was homemade. 5 stars for everything as well as the service. First time I see a robot with a tray bringing in the food for the patrons. Amazing experience.

    Best fried chicken.  Coleslaw

    I was on vacation in Florida and I had to check this place out. This is one of those places that truly lives up to the hype. First off, we went for the lunch special and it was amazing. I ordered the fried chicken, which ended up being a half a bird with two huge sides. My husband got the Chaufa de pollo. It was delicious and the portions were so generous for a lunch special. Love the decor the simplicity of it the server was so attentive and friendly. one of our new favorite go to places when we're in Miami !!

    Fried chicken was great! Very nice restaurant. Parking is only valet for cash or on the street. That's the only issue.

    We are visiting Miami and wanted to try some Cuban food. We did some research and saw the reviews…read morefor Marabu restaurant and decided to give it a try! Let's start with the mojito that came with such a large piece of sugar cane. It was so good! The waiter recommended my meal and it was delicious. The meat was tender and well seasoned. It also came with beans and rice. One meal was probably enough for two people! The restaurant is located on the 4th floor of the outdoor mall near some neat shops. I loved the restaurant decor and everyone was so friendly. Our waiter was very knowledgeable and gave great menu recommendations. The staff was attentive, stopping by to refill our water and clear plates. I highly recommend this restaurant!

    Marabu was a disappointment. We were hoping to have a memorable Cuban food on our short trip to…read moreMiami and unfortunately they did not deliver. We had an early reservation that they couldn't find when we checked in. They told us we could only sit outside in 95degree heat (the inside of the restaurant was actually empty?) They did seat us inside once we showed proof of our reservation... Our server was a nice guy and sweet with our daughter. We ordered the ham croquettes, ropa vieja, and fried snapper. The croquettes were OK. The ropa vieja was not good. The flavor was very one dimensional, it just tasted like tomato paste. I didn't like how they plated it - ropa vieja in a dish on a plate, with a totally separate plate for rice and beans. It made the meal feel disjointed and small. The deep fried snapper was the most disappointing. It was snapper nuggets with a (Cajun?) seasoning on top. They tasted like catfish nuggets and nothing about that dish felt or tasted Cuban. The idea of plating it with the fish bone wrapped around had good intentions but it didn't land. Does it really make sense to call this dish "whole fried snapper" if it's served as nuggets? Rice and plantains came on a separate plate and they were fine. I expected a lot more from this meal, but maybe we had an off experience.
