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.

Hot Honey Cubano (Spicy)
Chiara H.

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.

Blink and you'll miss it.

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.

Cafe con Leche

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!

"The Classic" Cubano (no pickles)
Kristen S.

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!

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!

medianoche: slow-roasted mojo pork, hardwood-smoked ham, melted swiss cheese, dill pickle, mustard + mayo on medianoche bread = $12.95
Trung N.

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.

Get the coffee. Taste almost like a Vietnamese coffee. Really good
Vu N.

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

Brian L.

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.

Parker S.

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.

Janet L.

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.

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.

Cuban
Kristyn W.

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!

A Slice of Dominican New York... Right Here on Miami Beach…read more I've been coming to Ocean Deli since 2020, and I honestly can't believe it's taken me this long to write a review. Maybe because people from New York know one universal rule: when you find a great neighborhood spot, you keep your mouth shut. You don't want your hidden gem becoming the next place where people wait in line because somebody on social media "discovered" it. Ocean Deli is one of the last authentic neighborhood delis left on Miami Beach. In a city filled with luxury hotels, trendy brunch spots, and restaurants charging resort prices for breakfast, Ocean Deli quietly does what it's been doing all along--serving great food, quickly, and at prices that still make sense. This is where the people who actually keep Miami Beach running come to eat. Hotel employees, construction workers, delivery drivers, city workers, first responders, and the locals who somehow managed to survive Miami Beach's rising cost of living. If you want to know where the real locals eat, this is it. The owner is Dominican and from the Bronx, and that New York Dominican bodega culture is written all over this place--in the best possible way. Walk through the door and you'll swear you just landed in Washington Heights or the Bronx. Bachata and merengue are playing in the background. The smell of fresh café con leche fills the room. The grill is always working. Conversations bounce around the deli like you've walked into someone's neighborhood hangout instead of a business. The ladies behind the counter are unmistakably Dominican--friendly, hardworking, efficient, and they keep the line moving without ever losing that neighborhood feel. The sandwiches are outstanding. Fresh bread, generous portions, and made the way sandwiches are supposed to be made. No unnecessary gimmicks. No tiny portions with fancy names. The café con leche deserves its own mention. Strong, smooth, and exactly what coffee should taste like. If you've spent any time in New York's Dominican neighborhoods, you'll recognize it immediately. The Dominican breakfast and lunch plates are equally impressive. Simple, authentic, flavorful comfort food that fills you up instead of emptying your wallet. Speaking of wallets... Ocean Deli might be one of the best values left on Miami Beach. While restaurants a few blocks away are charging you like they flew the eggs in first class, Ocean Deli is quietly serving quality food at prices that remind you Miami Beach wasn't always built just for tourists. Just know what you're walking into......This isn't a sit-down restaurant. You walk in, place your order, take your receipt to the register and pay. Then you wait a few minutes while the grill works its magic. When they call your order, you grab your food and you're on your way. That's how it's done here. Fast, efficient, and without all the unnecessary fanfare. Ocean Deli isn't trying to sell you an "artisan culinary experience." It's selling great sandwiches, authentic Dominican food, excellent café con leche, fair prices, and a little piece of Dominican-York right here on Miami Beach. Some places sell an image....... Ocean Deli sells breakfast and lunch. After six years of coming here, I wouldn't have it any other way. Just do yourself one favor: when you find yourself surrounded by tourists paying resort prices for an average meal, remember there's still one place on Miami Beach where the locals go. Now You Know

Before I entered door there's a man pumping hand sanitizer and it made sense because inside was so…read moreorganized and clean! The deli food was so flavorful I wish I was more schooled on Cuban cuisine. Had some type of plantain mash and it was amazing! 10/10 Empanadas were also full of flavor best I've had on my trip here!

Great place to stop for a quick bite on a beach day or when you're not feeling up for a full meal…read more Sandwiches are large and taste great! Plenty of customization options. A counter seat is hit or miss but nice to have available instead of only being a walk up window. Skip the smoothies. They're watery and thus not very filling or flavorful. You're better off getting a sandwich (again, as this was my 2nd visit) or going somewhere else for a smoothie.

Just one block away from South Beach on 14th Street, this place is a very popular fast food spot…read more Since South Beach restaurants are either expensive (20% gratuity even for a party of two) or extremely crowded, we walked one block inland and found this place. From a distance, it looks like a food truck, but it's actually a full setup designed to look that way. Even in the scorching heat, there was a line--but it moved quickly. Their menu has everything. Think of it as a Subway style setup, but with smoothies, tropical ingredients, and lots of fresh options. Now the main part...We ordered- Chicken Mix Baguette Tuna Baguette Am I the only one who found it just okay? At Subway, at least they toast the bread for a bit. Here, I genuinely struggled with the hard bread--it was tough to chew. Also, the meats were cold, which I'm not used to. I knew that beforehand, but still wanted to try this hyped spot. They have about 5-7 bar style stools for seating, but in the humidity, it's not the most comfortable experience. Freshness (smoothies & ingredients): 5/5 Overall taste & experience: 3/5 Or maybe we're just spoiled by the big fast food chains?

I had such a great brunch experience at Orange Blossom with my girls! The atmosphere was beautiful,…read morelively, and the perfect setting for a South Beach brunch. It had such a fun, elevated vibe that made the whole experience feel special from the moment we walked in. We ordered a variety of items to try, and everything was really enjoyable. The Collin's Park Salad was a 9/10 super fresh, flavorful, and light but still satisfying. The Eggs Benedict was an 8.5/10, cooked well and very comforting. The Turkey Burger was an 8/10, simple but good and filling. The Espresso Martini was a 10/10 perfectly made and definitely a must-order if you're going. I also loved the D3 Express Juice with dragon fruit, pineapple, coconut water, and lime it was so refreshing and paired really well with everything. Overall, the food, drinks, and ambiance made for such a great brunch experience. One thing to note is that they do not allow beachwear, so make sure you come dressed appropriately for a brunch setting. I would definitely come back and recommend this spot for a cute brunch with friends!

The reviews that I read after my bad experience with this place confirms that while the food is good but overpriced the service sucks because the servers are getting the gratuity anyway. The management ( Marius) should seriously evaluate the attitude and customer service skills of their servers, or at least the one that served us ( Douglas) I asked him politely if it would be possible to add an egg yolk to my tuna tartare, and the server didn't even bother checking with the chef/ manager or at least making an effort to pretend to. The response felt dismissive and uninterested. The food for my party was good, but unfortunately the customer service completely ruined the experience. Because of this, I won't be recommending this place, nor will I be returning. BTW you can ask your server to remove that 20% "automated" gratuity if there is no service. They can't force it on you. Especially if they don't tell you ahead of time.
