We dined in, and the visit blew away the food from the previous week. I really like Cuban sandwiches, so will be something my brother and I keep seeking out during short visits to Miami. We had a one-day rental car, so found Little Havana Restaurant, coming a bit after peak lunch time. It's on a major street, with surface angled parking in the back. There are a lot of wild birds in the area, with their guano being everywhere outside. It's a big dining area inside, and we were immediately directed to a prime location with views of their small lush adjacent green space, and the birds that live there. Elizabeth was our server, with water and complementary rolls being immediately offered by helpers. She and her team were great throughout, offering suggestions and bringing the food nice and hot. We ordered off the Happy Hour menu (11:30 - 18:00 M-F) and the Lunch Special Menu (11:30 - 16:00). We were greatly satisfied with every dish Shrimp in Garlic Sauce, appetizer size ($14.99) - 5 jumbo tail-on shrimp, sauteed in a scampi type sauce. It's what you expect when you douse good shrimp with a butter garlic sauce. The appetizer does not come with rice/beans, but we had plenty of it from the other dishes...loved spooning the sauce over the rice while eating. Roast Pork Lunch ($12.99) - what a deal. A dish of pulled pork with a big piece of fried pork skin on top...reminded me of the Filipino lechon, or even the Hawaiian kalua pork, with the tenderness of the mean. It came with a big scoop of rice and a bowl of red beans. Lamb Shank ($18.49) - This was recommended by Elizabeth when asked by my brother, what he shouldn't miss. It's a Cuban special, cooked in wine sauce. It was a big piece, still on the bone, coming with a big plate of rice and fried plantains. He enjoyed it, though he was struggling a bit at the end. Cuban Sandwich ($12.49) - A full size Cuban sandwich, cut in half. It had been grilled on a sandwich press with a little oil, resulting in the cuban bread being crispy at the top. It had the right mix of that same delicious pulled pork, along with ham, melted swiss, mustard and pickle slices. It was very good, great value for the price. Paying was done at the top, and we intentionally did not take any leftovers. There is a framed newspaper article from 1991 in the lobby, where you can read more about their origins.

This is, without a doubt, one of the worst restaurants I have ever visited…read more From the moment my wife and I walked in at 4:00 PM, the experience was disappointing. The restaurant was practically empty, which should have been the first warning sign. We started by ordering drinks. The menu listed more than five beers, yet they only had two available because, according to them, their freezer was broken. Fine, things happen. We then ordered a Moscow Mule, only to be told they couldn't make it because they aren't a full bar. Understandable. Next, we asked for an Aperol Spritz. They didn't have that either. Finally, hoping they could at least make a simple mojito, we ordered one--only to be told they didn't have mint leaves. At that point, it was almost laughable. Then the food arrived. They served old bread that wasn't even warm. We ordered two appetizers: the garlic shrimp, which was just average, and the tuna tiradito. The tuna tiradito was easily the worst I've ever had. The presentation was terrible. The tuna looked like it had been cut with a dull rock instead of a sharp knife. The sauce was supposed to have fresh lemon and truffle oil, but it tasted like bottled fake lemon juice with some strange black paste dumped on top. It was completely unappetizing. (I'll attach a photo so you can judge for yourself.) The most frustrating part came when the waitress asked if everything was okay. We politely explained our concerns, including all the issues with the drinks and the food. Instead of apologizing or trying to make things right, she argued with us and became defensive. Customer service is about solving problems, not debating with your guests. Overall, this was an awful dining experience from beginning to end. I genuinely don't understand how this restaurant has a 4.8-star rating with over a thousand reviews because it certainly didn't reflect the experience we had. I would not recommend this place to anyone. Save your money and go somewhere that actually cares about the quality of its food and service.

But I definitely could not take more than a few bites and that's cause I was starving.

It continued to get busier as the night went on. The ladies split a bottle of a white blend. It was delicious. The men each had a glass of Malbec. We ordered the Procuitto and burrata salad as an appetizer. It was huge. Perfect to split amongst the 4 of us. We also ordered the beef empanada to share. It was really good! They brought out some warm bread with butter and tomatoes. For dinner we all ordered the Vacio, except my daughter ordered the gnocchi with braised beef. We were enjoying everything so much that I didn't take pictures before we were almost finished eating. Everything was amazing! The steak was so tender! Cooked to perfection! Very tasty. We asked for some chimichurri and they brought us some small (2 tablespoons) cups of it. I had the roasted potatoes on the side. My husband had the fries. You could tell that the fries were handmade. For dessert we shared the panqueque with dulce de leche and vanilla ice cream. It was really good! The service was great. Plenty of people waiting on you, refilling your water, and checking on you. I look forward to returning again.

Edan Bistro offers a delightful dining experience that seamlessly combines informal and casual charm with a cozy and inviting atmosphere. From the moment you step inside, the warmth of the setting encourages you to relax and savor the experience. The decor is tasteful, with comfortable seating and soft lighting that adds to the overall ambiance, making it an ideal spot for a leisurely meal. The service at Edan Bistro is exceptional. Our server, Juan Pablo, was a standout. His kindness and knowledge of the menu were evident as he guided us through our dining choices, ensuring we selected the best options available. His recommendations were spot-on, contributing significantly to our enjoyable experience. For starters, we ordered the mushrooms croquettes, which were a perfect blend of crispiness on the outside and creamy, flavorful mushrooms on the inside. The dish was beautifully presented and served at the ideal temperature. Our main courses included the duck magret and the pumpkin creamy rice, a risotto infused with black truffle and garnished with microgreens. The duck magret was cooked to perfection, with a tender and succulent texture that melted in the mouth. The risotto was a culinary masterpiece, rich and creamy with a delicate balance of pumpkin and truffle flavors that left us wanting more. To conclude our meal, we indulged in the Basque cheesecake. It was the perfect end to a fantastic dining experience. The cheesecake had a wonderfully smooth and creamy texture, with a slightly caramelized top that added a delightful contrast to each bite. Overall, Edan Bistro is a gem that offers not just a meal, but an experience. With its cozy ambiance, excellent service, and delectable cuisine, it's a place where you'll want to linger and savor every moment. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a memorable dining experience. read more

What an absolute gem! Today I had the pleasure of visiting Edan Bistro, and I can honestly say it was one of the most enjoyable café experiences I've had in Miami. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt warm, inviting, and effortlessly elegant--a place where you immediately want to slow down, relax, and savor every moment. I came with my mother-in-law, Elizabeth, for a quiet afternoon together, and everything about our visit exceeded expectations. The coffee was exceptional: rich, perfectly balanced, and clearly prepared with great care. But the true star of the afternoon was the Basque cheesecake. As someone who appreciates a great dessert, I can confidently say this was the best Basque cheesecake I have had in Miami. It was beautifully caramelized on the outside, incredibly creamy on the inside, and had that perfect balance of sweetness and flavor that leaves you wanting just one more bite. What made the experience even more special was the outstanding service we received from Ena. She was attentive, professional, genuinely kind, and made us feel welcome throughout our visit. It's rare to find someone who combines efficiency with such warmth, and she truly elevated our experience. In a city filled with dining options, Edan Bistro stands out not only because of the quality of its food and beverages, but because of the care and hospitality that you can feel in every detail. Whether you're stopping by for coffee, dessert, brunch, or simply to enjoy a peaceful moment with family and friends, this is a place worth visiting. Thank you, Ena, and thank you, Edan Bistro, for such a memorable afternoon. We will absolutely be returning, and I look forward to enjoying that incredible Basque cheesecake again very soon. read more

An Unparalleled Gastronomic Experience in Miami Recently, I had the pleasure of dining at Edan bistro restaurant that offers some of the best food in Miami, comparable to Michelin-starred establishments. The chef Aitor's creativity and the surprising flavors of the dishes truly stand out. At the end of the meal, I was disappointed to learn that the famous Basque cheesecake was sold out, as it is the best cheesecake I have ever tasted. However, to my surprise, the chef Aitor, in an extremely attentive gesture, prepared a cheesecake especially for me, even after I had already paid the bill and was about to leave. This gesture made the evening an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone seeking an exceptional culinary experience in Miami.

This one didn't. The rice across every plate was a bit hard, like it sat too long before serving. Overall, the food felt lukewarm rather than fresh off the grill or fryer. Even the plates that looked good, like the chicken breast with egg and rice, and the salmon with salad, lost points for temperature. The grilled steak plate had good flavor, but it shared the same lukewarm, sit-too-long feel as the rest. Overall, a mixed meal. The croquetas earned their spot on the table. The chicharrón, sirloin, rice, and food temperature need work.
