    Being a native 305 I've never passed up an opportunity for a good frita and shake. This place doesn't change. They are constant, affordable, fresh food and the service is always good. There's plenty of seating and if you come early you can have the place to yourself. I ordered a frita and my coworker had a pan con biste. The food is made to order as well as it taste delicious. It may not be the healthiest choices however life is short. If you want to taste an original Cuban spot then you won't be disappointed.

    Best Frita and pan con bistec I've had in a long time. Service was quick, staff were friendly, and the ambiance was on point. Also had a couple of delicious empanadas (beef and guava), not to mention the "cortadito" coffee was outstanding. Recommend this location and will go back soon!

    Ever since I saw this place on mark weins youtube channel ive been wanting to go here. Im half Cuban and know about fritas. Fritas are a Cuban style burger. I was going on a cruise so we drove down to Miami the night before the cruise. The day of the cruise we came here for lunch. I would have rather gone to the OG spot in Calle 8 but the Hialeah location was on our route. This place looks like a little hole in the wall spot but don't be nervous about it and go on in! We walked in and sat down. The people working dont know much english but thats normal in miami. Our server was super nice. I ordered a supreme frita and it comes with the Cuban seasoned burger party, a thick piece of deep fried cheese, freshly made potato sticks, and sweet plantains. I absolutely loved the frita! So delicious. And I also ordered a malted milkshake. I loved my shake. My wife got a breakfast sandwich and it was awesome. Prices are super low here and you get a lot of food. They have a bunch of different fruit shakes so get one because they are so tasty. next time im in Miami I'll definetly go back.

    Glad I got the chance to stop in for some of the most famous fritas around. This is not the original shop in Little Havana, but figured It would be about the same. Fritas were fresh, well seasoned, and juicy. Surprised that the onions were served raw and would prefer them sautéed as I've had at most other places. The buns were perfect little pillows of Cuban rolls, and the julienne potatoes were fresh. Tried the fries and the corn nuggets. Both came out piping hot, and were good, but nothing homemade or special. I sat in one of their booths to eat fresh and hot, and they also have plenty of counter seating. I think this would make for a perfect take out sack of fritas to bring home to the family. $5.50 each is a good price for what you get.

    Went in for a steak sandwich, looks better in the picture than it tastes. Service was good. Ambiance was ok. It was ok but not for a repeat visit.

    A Hialeah classic ! El rey de las fritas has to be your go to when you want to try or are craving a Frita and you're in Hialeah ! Delicious! I had a double frita and it hit the spot! The meat was filled with flavor the onions and fresh fried julienne potato sticks give you another layer of flavor and crunch! They also have several other variations of the frita which I am looking forward to try. To drink they have some natural juices and shakes. I will for sure be back to try some more fritas and juices ! Great value and flavor with this Hialeah classic spot ! El rey !

    In Miami Beach, a trip isn't complete without a piping hot Cuban meal!…read more Palomilla Steak This is it on the oval plate! It's a classic Cuban thinly sliced ​​steak, marinated in a special mojo sauce and seared to perfection. The generous topping of roasted onions is the soul of the dish; be sure to eat it with the steak--the savory, tender flavor is incredibly satisfying! Seafood Lobster This steaming hot dish is a seafood feast! Its vibrant color is immediately appealing. It's packed with ingredients: large shrimp, sweet clams, and plump mussels. The rice absorbs the seafood's umami flavor, turning an enticing golden color. Before eating, remember to squeeze on the caramelized roasted lemon juice; the lemon's tang instantly elevates the dish's freshness, making every bite a taste of the island!

    Good for cuban food but takes advantage of being in a tourist trap area. Overpriced automatically…read morecharges 20% gratuity and all the available surcharges legally possible. Service is ok waitress was friendly but doing their job for the company to max out their profits. Ambiance is what you expect of all the south beach locations seemingly an extension of Havana if you been there. I would rank as 4 stars for the food but downgrade because they added a lot of random stuff to the menu just to get those who dont know real cuban food to eat there such as burgers and pasta lol. It would get 5 stars if they were authentic trying to offer strictly cuban only and reasonably priced. Because they take advantage of tourist and are here just for the money I lowered it to 3.

    We've been coming to Trigo Café for years, and it has become one of our family's favorite places…read more Julio, one of the owners, always makes us feel so welcomed and truly treats everyone like family. Our favorite time to visit is Sunday brunch, especially since they have a special menu. We recently came for Father's Day, and even though Julio was celebrating as a father himself, he was working incredibly hard to make sure every guest had a great experience. You can really see how much heart and dedication he pours into his business. As expected on Father's Day, there was a bit of a wait, especially since we were a larger party, but none of us minded. To thank us for our patience, Julio generously brought out croquetas for the table on the house, which was such a thoughtful gesture. I can't recommend Trigo Café enough. The food is consistently excellent, the service is warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere feels like home. While brunch is our favorite, their lunch and dinner are just as great, and the new tapas and wine area they recently added is a fantastic addition. If you haven't been, you're missing out!

The girl who served me was very attentive to me when I visited and helped me with any questions i had; made me feel very welcomed. When i couldn't finish my coffee she packed it up for me in a to go cup.

    My first time here. I know it's an iconic spot with comfort Cuban food and known for their churros…read more I was definitely forced to practice my Spanish. Although I'm no where near perfect I still needed a little help from Google translate lol my chicken plwte was very flavorful. I also ordered boiled yucca that came late so not in the pictures. My sister had the bistec and fell in love with it. Unfortunately I didn't like the churros at all. I think the dough was possibly old because it tasted off. I've never had a churro that I never liked. I think I may have caught them on a bad day. The servers were okay. Not too friendly but maybe they were tired. Restaurant was pretty clean and very casual.

    This is a Hialeah staple! Been open since the 1960s and the vibe is original and takes you back in…read moretime. Let me know you the service is amazing. We went for lunch and the owner helped us arrange a table for 7 immediately. Our waitress was so helpful and patient with us. We came specifically for La fritas cubana and it was terrific. Just like I remembered it as a kid. We also ordered the mariquitas which came with garlic sauce. That sauce is homemade and delicious. Also I picked up a sugar cane juice "guarapo". Why not? :). My coworkers loved it and I'm sure you'll love it too. They have a great menu with authentic Cuban cuisine and prices are great.
