I asked on Reddit where to get the best Cuban sandwich in south beach and this place was recommended. It was delicious! They roast the pork in-house. It is tender and flavorful. I chose the medianoche so it came with the sweet bread. The place is small with only two seats inside and a counter to stand and it at. Outside there are a few tables. The place is clean and the staff is friendly and efficient. read more

Great Cuban sandwiches and nice friendly service! Saw great reviews so walked here from our hotel to try it out. It's a small venue with some outdoor seating but probably not best during Miami summer. Fortunately, we had a big group so got to try most of their tasty sandwiches. Was also happy to see they offer an Iced Cafe Bombon which is a double shot of Cuban espresso with Tres Leches. Similar to a Vietnamese iced coffee. Worth a visit for great Cuban sandwiches read more

Outstanding spot. Our group declared it had the best cubano we had all vacation. From a tourist perspective, a reprieve from the breathy table service meals and flashy bars/lounges. I noticed the bright colors of the spot as we passed by in our uber about to be dropped off for a full day in South Beach. No crazy lines out the door or people posing for their food grams, but patrons genuinely enjoying the food and chatting amongst themselves. It was a great pre-nosh for the many drinks and cocktails we had later on. I personally enjoyed the Medianoche a little more than the Cubano, but truly they were both delicious. Plus the little potato crisps were a great way to mix up the texture as you ate along. A lot of words to say, do it. Stop here and grab a walking sammie. You won't regret it. Plus the Pit Bull themed bathroom is a fun surprise and delight. read more

This is one of the best sandwiches I have ever eaten. I had the hot honey Cubano, and it was perfect. The quality of the meat was amazing and it had the right amount of mustard in the right amount of tangy with the hot honey. I cannot wait to eat the sandwich again! And the vibe of the whole place is so cute and so chill. read more

Cubatón Sandwich Shop - Hot Honey Cubano (Spicy) - Cuban Near Me - Miami Beach, Florida

Limited menu, but I view that as a good thing. It's essentially variants of Cuban sandwiches with the pressed bread and something in the middle. The simplicity works here. "The Classic" Cubano: The benefit of specialization is that they can execute so well. This was powered by some really delicious and nicely marinated roast pork. The portions of roast pork, ham and cheese were just right so no one overpowered the other. Also, they got the mustard and pickles right too, to give a a good tang. I liked that the bread was stiff soft, but also crunchy on the edges. Really the perfect specimen. Medianoche: Honestly, I didn't taste much of a difference compared to the classic Cubano. The bread look different, but didn't necessarily taste any sweeter to me. That being said, it was still super delicious since it's a winning formula. Jamón y Queso: A slimmed down permutation of the Cuban sandwich for breakfast. Just ham, cheese and mayo on the toasted bread. It actually works of breakfast since the pulled pork, mustard and pickles would be a bit much first thing in the morning. Pan con Timba: Now this was sweet! Those big slices of guava paste was excellent. Nice pairing of mild white cheese, melt beside to offset the sweetness. Toasty bread. This sure beats any toast with jam snack! Cortadito: Got this as I waited for my sandwich. I had it with sugar, of course. Perfect jolt and strong espresso and cream. Cafe con Leche: A classic. Creamy, sweet and a nice jolt of strong espresso. While the cortadito is nice, this is definitely my favorite. Always reminds me that I'm in Miami Beach. Iced Café Bombón: This is something Starbucks wishes they could be. It's like a Miami Frappuccino with dulce de leche milk and a generous dulce de leche drizzle. Plus lots of strong espresso to give a nice bitter contrast. For me, with my sweet tooth, this was the perfect afternoon treat. Colada: Kinda like an espresso, but sweeter and smooth. A nice jolt of caffeine to get your day going! read more

My first time trying a cubano and it was delicious and satisfying! The mojo pork was so tender and flavorful, the cheese melted perfectly, and had just the right amount tang from the mustard. I don't like pickles so I ordered it without them. I wish the sandwich was a bit bigger for the price, but definitely worth it. My brother loves cubanos and was jealous. He said it looked much better than the cubano he ordered from Jimmy John's the day before. The restaurant is small and doesn't really have much seating, so I recommend it for takeout. Eating it on the beach was such a vibe! read more

A cuban sandwich shop in the heart of Miami Beach. We truly stumbled upon this spot when I needed a quick bite to eat before an event and after trying to find parking in the area, we saw Cubaton! Specializing in cuban sandwiches, their selection is small but mighty. They have a few varieties of cuban sandwiches and we ended up picking the original hot honey cubano, which was recommended. The shop itself is small with just a counter by the front and some outdoor seating to dine at. The decor was cute and menu was easy to peruse. The staff was super welcoming and friendly as soon as you walk in! Our food was ready in no time and we decided to eat it to-go but ate it in the car and... this sandwich fresh was AMAZING. It came with a little bag of potato sticks, which I would have loved to come on the inside, but we added it in so love that it's basically customizable. The sandwich was pressed and warm with the cheese oozing out as soon as you separated the cut pieces. The flavor was both sweet and spicy (my favorite) with the hot honey and jalapeno. We finished the sandwich within minutes! Definitely a great spot to grab a cuban sandwich. I don't travel to Miami Beach often but might have to make a trip to grab another sandwich! read more

Cubatón is a sweet little sandwich shop perfect for a midday pick-me-up. We ordered both the Medianoche ($12.95) and "the classic" Cubano ($12.95) which are virtually the same sandwich but on different bread. Both sandwiches come with slow-roasted mojo pork, hardwood-smoked ham, melted cheese, dill pickle, mustard + mayo. I liked that the sandwich was tightly packed like a panini. That way you get a little bit of everything with each bite. Sandwiches were great, but the café con leche ($4.50) was absolute fire. The coffee was so rich and aromatic and unlike anything I've ever tasted before. A sandwich and coffee is the perfect midday treat. Come here for the sandwiches and grab yourself a coffee while you're at it. read more

I been to many Cuban sandwich shops. And this is my top 2-3 for sure. Love the bread. Nice and thin. Flavor is good. Pork is not dry at all like some places. Next time I will ask for it to be extra crispy Cafe bombon surprised me. So good almost like a Vietnamese coffee. If you enjoy a sweet coffee don't sleep on this one read more

Honestly this is just a solid no-frills Cuban sandwich place. The menu isn't all that complicated with a decent number of sandwiches, and I got the hot honey which admittedly can dominate in terms of the flavor, but not necessarily in an unpleasant way. The food was served very quick, also with a side of those thin fry chips, which was a nice touch, and it overall made for a great quick, hearty meal. I definitely would come here again any time I'm looking for a solid easy meal in South Beach. TIP: Can't go wrong with any Cuban sandwich. read more

The cubano was so delicious, even on a hot day. The smoked meats had so much flavor. The owner was there the day we were there and we chatted with him. He told us he smokes his own meats! Whatever he's doing, it's spot on. The flavors are amazingly delicious! He and his whole staff are very friendly and welcoming. If we're ever in Miami again, that's the sandwich spot we're headed to. read more

A sandwich shop slinging some of the best cuban food you can imagine in Miami beach. The employees were pleasant and we sat right outside their shop to eat. We ordered a hot honey cuban to share and we both came away wishing we had this shop right next to our house with how fantastic it was. The hot honey wasn't overpowering and there was still plenty of pork/ham/mustard flavor to go-around. I loved Cubaton and I'm sad we head home tomorrow or else I'd be coming back to grab another sandwich! Truly a legendary Cuban sandwich experience. read more

Cute little sandwich place about a block away from the beach. You don't need to spend a fortune to get good quality food then take it to the beach for lunch. Nice friendly staff and explained what's good and popular. I got their classic Cuban sandwich. It was hot pressed bread, ham, cheese and all the condiments. I also got their iced cafe bombon drink. It reminded me and similar to Vietnamese coffee. I took it to the beach and ate it watching the waves! Inexpensive yet delicious lunch with spectacular view. read more

So happy we found Cubaton! Probably the best Cuban sandwiches we've had in Miami, definitely in Miami Beach. Everyone that was eating at Cubatón seemed genuinely happy with their sandwich. It was a good mix of locals and in the know tourists. The space is small, but that doesn't matter. Go get a Cuban (or Jamon & Cheese) sandwich, and enjoy! read more

If you're spending a day at the beach, start off by getting Cubanos and cafecitos to picnic there! The iced café bombón was a delicious treat that was sweet and creamy with the perfect amount of caffeine. We came back a couple times during our recent vacation. The staff were friendly the shop was clean. If you're a Pitbull fan, you've gotta check out their bathroom! The Cubanos were excellent lounging on the beach. The day we left, my husband grabbed a pan con timba and coffee back to the hotel room and it was the perfect goodbye to Miami Beach. Cubatón is a must next time we are in the area. read more

Best Cuban sandwiches in South Beach!! The classic cubano and the medianoche were divine. They were super hot and toasty, meaty and cheesy, so much of flavor and taste authentic as it gets! The iced cafe bombon is a must! Double espresso with tres leches blend and a drizzle of dulce de leche. HEAVEN! It's sweet but not overtly sweet, so good, and I don't even like sweet!! Great spot for a quick and easy lunch. We even got sandwiches to go to reheat and have later! read more

Didn't want to walk too far in the rain for a Cuban sandwich and Cubaton was just right. Young man who took our order was friendly and efficient. They did charge us for extra sauce/hot honey either. I ordered the Pan Con lechón and my hubby got the classic. Fresh lemonades are tart and fresh. This was a welcomed change from the over-priced commercial spots. Our bread was crispy and soft while the meat was juicy and flavorful. read more

I biked over here for lunch! There aren't particularly any places to lock your bike, but you can use a sign post temporarily. It is a relatively small store front but they do have limited indoor & outdoor seating areas. The service was very quick. I ordered the hot honey Cuban, it was unique & yummy! The potato crisps are a nice addition to have a little crunch. Overall, it was a solid stop!

Cubaton has a number of accolades from various prominent travel and food guides, all well displayed on the walls of the restaurant. Honestly, I don't think the people writing these reviews know what a real, good, well made cubano should be. The shocking thing is that the sandwiches that are not "cubanos" are so much better here. I first stopped by for breakfast ordering the pan con timba and bombon drink. The first issue was with the drink - I asked for light ice and the cup was nearly full to the brim with ice. Wow. It tasted good but finished quickly. However, the pan con timba was simply delicious. Amazingly soft bread filled with a guava paste and melty cheese. So simple yet so damn good. This made me excited to come back and try the cubano. That is, until I actually tried the cubano. It was terrible. The meat was so dry and bland, there was hardly any cheese, they couldn't even toast it properly, and the bread was also dry and cracking like it was stale. Mind you, these two sandwiches were eaten within 24 hours of each other. I wouldn't recommend this cubano to my worst enemy read more

My wife and I were visiting Miami a few days before a cruise. I had been wanting an authentic Cuban but never made it to a restaurant that had one. Our last morning I ran out to pick coffee up and took a different route back to our Airbnb. I'm so glad I did. I stumbled on Cubaton and walked in greeted with friendly smiles by the 3 woman working. I ordered "The Classic" and added jalapeños. WOW!!! So good, so fresh, and authentic. 10/10. The bread, the meat, gooey Swiss cheese, it was more than I wanted. Pretty sure I will dream about this Cuban sandwich it was that good. Don't go to these large restaurants and hope for something as good as this. read more

My friend recommended this place to satisfy my hunger for an authentic Cuban sandwich. It was a short walk from our hotel and ordered my Classic Cubano sandwich at 9 AM. It's a small shop with two stools inside and couple tables with shade outdoors. I liked how the sandwich was packed with the pork, ham and cheese. The bread was nice and crispy. The sandwich was very filling and rich with the pork fat, so I would share this with another person. As other Yelpers suggested, check out the Pitbull theme bathroom. read more
