Batido de trigo

Ok so I come here for the ox tail ! It's the best I've had! The price is very reasonable. They give you the best bread when u first sit and their batido de trigo is amazing . Staff is super friendly. Will continue to come here!

El Dos Ruedas "Colossal Cortadito"
Nelson M.

Hi everybody! So I decided today that I would checkout a local no nonsense lunch spot in the Pinecrest / Palmetto Bay Area that had been recommended. "El Dos Ruedas" was nearby where I was running some errands, so I decided to check them out and I am very happy that I did. As expected they were very busy but in a few minutes I was sitting down and talking to my server. Seeing as this is down home Cuban lunch spot, I opted for the Steak Sandwich, a couple of Croquetas and a cup of their soup of the day, "Ajiaco". All food items were excellent and the service was courteous and fast. Afterwards I ordered the obligatory "Cortadito" aka Cuban Macchiato and outside of being awesome it was huge! Talk about value.... The portion sizes were excellent and their prices were extremely affordable to boot. The most expensive item on the menu was a whole fried snapper for $17 which is unheard of really. Most food items range between $2 and $10 which is great. Normally you would think cheap prices mean bad food but that is not the case at all here guys. Everything is very fresh as I would expect it to be with so much traffic. The restaurant is not large but they do move tables fast from what I could see so no issues there. Additionally, they also have plenty of parking as they are located in a strip mall but it can get a little congested at lunch time. Ambiance was great as well and very welcoming but that is pretty typical for family owned Cuban restaurants. Well I certainly will be coming back whenever I can and if you want to get some great quality affordable no nonsense Cuban food, you should definitely give them a shot. Hey, great opportunity to put those Spanish lessons to use! Just sayin.... LOL! Wishing everyone a great day. Enjoy and Bon Appétit!

This place never disappoints.. every time I go the food is GREAT! The service is great as well.

We just left zoo Miami and we are a family of four. We were craving some authentic Cuban food . We didn't want to drive too far and thankfully this place popped up . We really enjoyed this little gem. The food was delicious. We didn't wait long at all. we are very satisfied.

Super good super cheap cuban food

A great deal for authentic cuban food in the southwest part of the miami area. A good sign - lots of guys sitting at the diner style counter and many locals coming to pick up to go orders. We were seated right away and the menu was extremely reasonable with menu items priced from $4 to just under 8 dollars. Seriously there might have been something over 8 but I dont remember seeing it. They had an extensive breakfast menu and I wish it had been that time of day cuz I do love some breakfast but since it was nighttime I went with the fried pork plate. You get to choose 3 sides with your item and they bring out baskets of buttery garlic bread. Some other items my party got were the creole shrimp, flank steak, seafood soup (a meal in itself) and the rice with squid (and accompanying ink). Everyone liked their dishes and while it looked like our food might take a long time service was pretty quick. The best local food places are in strip malls like this...I highly recommend.

The food is amazing and it's cheap too. The portion is big as well! The servers were really sweet, especially since we didn't speak Spanish.

The service was great, food was delicious, and the price, unbelievable. My wife and I shared a Cuban sandwich. The portions are huge and the flavor is on point. This is my first time here. I only wish I had know about it earlier. Im definitely coming back. Yuri, the waitress was on her game.

Versailles - Tres Leches ($4.95) - good though also on the sweeter side. Not as sweet as the flan.

I was told that when you're in Florida ESPECIALLY Miami you HAVE to get Cuban food. And wow... now…read moreI understand why. As we were driving in, the place already looked beautiful. We came in the evening and immediately, as we walked up, there was music, people laughing, talking, smiling... the energy was incredible. I also loved that there was a bar off to the side while waiting. We ordered a few mojitos and sat outside at the tables and benches, just enjoying the atmosphere. When our name was finally called and we walked inside, I genuinely felt like I was stepping into history. The atmosphere here is unmatched. The music, the aromas, the people. God, I loved it here and I hadn't even tried the food yet. We ordered the braised oxtail (which came with plantains and rice), salmon glazed in guava BBQ sauce, ceviche tropical, assorted empanadas, and a Cuban sandwich. Everything was phenomenal. The sauce paired with the empanadas perfectly. The guava BBQ glaze on the salmon was absolute perfection. It was the perfect combo of sweet, smoky, and flavorful. The ceviche had the perfect acidity and tasted so fresh and refreshing. This is one of the most famous Cuban restaurants in Miami. It completely lives up to the reputation. Highly recommended

DIRT AND MUD IN THE SALAD!!! WATCH OUT…read more We ordered the salad with mango and pecans. They do not wash there lettuce. There was literally dirt/mud at the bottom and I took my first bite and it felt like biting into sand. Upon spitting the food out onto my plate it was black sludge. Literally my tongue and teeth were black. The waiter came by and grabbed the plate when I was in the bathroom. I spent about 10 minutes trying to get that BLACK SLUDGE out of my mouth. When I was spitting out the dirt/mud wife noticed the bus boys laughing at me and there was not a manger in sight. When I asked for a manager he did not even respond. No apology or anything just a look of confusion. Worst experience in a restaurant in my life and I love to eat and have been to many types of restaurant big and small. Cheap and expensive and this one takes the cake. We were so bummed as I see thousands of great reviews. But if there was a zero I would have given zero stars the way they handled the situation. If you eat there in the future make sure to check for DIRT/MUD.

Lots of Yelpers hyped up the outdoor patio, but we came during a massive thunderstorm so we didn't…read moreget to check it out. The inside is cute also! We started with the goat cheese croquettes, which were delicious! The marmalade went well, and the pickles onions and jalapeños cut the richness and were a nice complement. Husband had the Masa de Puerco chino and loved it. Big tender chunks of pork, super flavorful. I had the abuela's ropa vieja, and it was perfect. I don't even usually like plantains, and the Maduros were delicious! Oh! And the Passion lemonade was SO GOOD!! Service was friendly and attentive without being intrusive. Loved everything about the experience, and we're hoping to get back while we're in Miami!

We came here for dinner on our first night in Miami. We made reservations but it said outdoor patio…read morewasn't available. Regardless when we arrived they sat us outside which is exactly what we were hoping for. Our server was nice at first. Explained all the popular dishes got our drinks out very quickly. I think she stole our table from someone else because shortly after someone came and we told them we put our order in and he seemed a little bothered. Unfortunately, our other server disappeared and never checked up on us. We pretty much didn't have any napkins during our entire duration of our meal. At least that part was good. We started off with a couple of mojitos and their Vaca Frita Tostones. You get these homemade maduro tostones topped off with shreeded beef in a moon sauce, pickled onion, and aji Amarillo aioli. A very delicious dish that didn't last long. Shortly after we received our main dish. I really hate when they do that. My wife ordered their Abuelas Ropa Vieja and I ordered their Masa de Puerco Chino. My wife didn't really care for her dish much. We've had plenty of Ropa Vieja before and would have preferred a congri type of rice as opppsed to just plain white rice. My dish was 10/10. Like in the name of "chino" this is an Asian inspired dish with fried rice, maduros, pineapple confit and crispy pork. A very delicious dish. It could have don't without the little salad on top, but at least it ads color to the dish. The crispy pork tasted so amazing and the fried had so much flavor. Mix in some of the maduros and you get a sweet and savory dish. Would definitely be returning to try this dish again.

If you're debating whether to eat at Havana 1957, let me save you some time: go hungry and wear…read morestretchy pants. We ordered the Cuban sandwich and the Cuban burger, and honestly both were dangerously good. The Cuban sandwich was exactly what you hope for -- crispy bread, perfectly pressed, packed with flavor, and the kind of sandwich that makes you pause mid-bite and just nod at the person across from you like "yep... this was the right decision." The Cuban burger was also fantastic -- juicy, flavorful, and big enough that you start questioning whether you should have skipped breakfast. The area around the restaurant was great too. Nice vibe, good energy, and perfect for walking around before or after eating... which you will probably need to do after finishing that burger. The servers were good -- friendly, attentive, and thankfully didn't judge us for attacking the food like we hadn't eaten in three business days. Overall the place has a fun atmosphere, great Cuban comfort food, and the kind of menu that makes you want to come back just to try the things you didn't order the first time. Highly recommend... just be prepared to leave full and slightly considering a nap. 10/10 would happily destroy another Cuban sandwich there again.

As others have stated, Havana 1957 is a small chain of Cuban eateries located throughout Miami,…read morewith I think 3 restaurants on Miami Beach alone. We stopped here at this one on Espanola Way for dinner on a Sunday, primarily because we had somewhere else in this area to be afterward, and while most every place on this touristy street was packed with a wait list, this restaurant could seat us right away. Service was good all evening from an outgoing waiter, this place was great for people watching (we were seated at a high top on the sidewalk in front), the food was good and the prices were reasonable, especially considering that Espanola Way is one of the most touristy areas on already touristy Miami Beach. I had the signature roasted chicken ($28) and my husband the Cuban churrasco steak ($42) and both included sides. We also had a glass of wine each and again, wine prices were reasonable. While we don't tend to eat in this general area often as it is so touristy which usually equals lackluster food and service at high prices, Havana 1957 was just fine. I'd happily return here.
