This restaurant has several locations, but this one is worthing noting. There are a few really good Cuban restaurants left in Miami, and this one is one of them. Food -- The food portions can be "abuela" approved. All plates come with 2 sides, which are all very shareable. From dining in to ordering cantina to-go, the food never disappoints. It's always fresh, savory and hands-down delicious. Service -- From the cafecito at the ventanita to the dining in, the service is always friendly and courteous, as it should be. Ambiance -- [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's located inside a dated strip mall that needs much refurbishing but the restaurant inside is clean and ample.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

The price was reasonable for the amount of food.[[HIGHLIGHT]]The place was haft full[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Recommended to everyone read more

Sometimes when you need to run errands in the workday, things such like lunch need to give so you don't waste PTO time to grab a bite. Such was the other day when dropping & picking up my car from the auto shop a short walk over from Rinconcito. It's located in a strip mall - along with a few other restaurants - on NW 36th Street next to Palmetto Ford. Needless to say, after starving all day at work and rushing to pick it up before closing time, I was famished and stopped here in my repaired car. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The dining room space inside is pretty large, plus they have a few outside tables.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My waitress was casually pleasant: not the same level of attention you'd expect at a white glove spot but I wasn't ignored either. I ordered the somewhat healthyish Pollo a la Plancha. Served with cut up onions, a dash of sazon completa and two lemon wedges, this was huge! It took up the entire real estate of a plate, such that the sides were on a separate one. The chicken had good taste & texture, and again, the plate was large and filling. The moros (cuban rice) was with red beans, instead of the black beans I prefer & of course I loved my platanitos (fried plantains). Oh, and cafecito was had. I definitely needed the energy! read more

Came here with some friends that eat here a lot. Now I know why. Food was amazing, cooked perfectly and the amount of food they give is shareable. Not a big fan of the chicharones de pollo (chicken chunks) without the bone rather have the dark meat but the made the chick so juicy and tasty. The yellow rice with shrimp was great. I hear the fried rice is very good but it's only on Thursdays. Service was good, waitress was very attentive didn't have to ask for refills and food did not take long. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was a great vibe inside,[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I wish this was closer to me but I'll definitely be back. read more

This was a nice spot! We were only in Miami for an evening before heading to Key West. This spot was right across from our hotel and was recommended to us. We were delighted! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere is like a Cuban diner, full of regulars who clearly love the spot.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We had Cuban sandwiches (I, in hindsight, wish I would have been more adventurous, with my food choice because everything looked great) and tres leches. Would recommend for an authentic Cuban experience! read more

La comida y el servicio espectacular. Pidan el chicharrón de pollo. No se arrepentirán

Great food, good value, 3 of us, Cuban sandwiches were yummy, I had the hamburger & fries. I wish the items on the menu were provided English descriptions of the food, I dislike mystery meats and surprises. Portions were generous. read more

Repeat visit. Wife & I just flew in from Paris and stayed nearby last night. Woke up starving. This is all we were looking forward to this afternoon for lunch. Great service. Waitresses remind me of when and how my mom would serve me food when I was a child. Great traditional cuban cuisine. Always go for the specials of the day. Food is super fresh due to its high turnover. Also the daily specials come out in a few minutes. Don't order too much from daily specials because the entire order will come out at once at the same time. Large dining room with high tops and regular tables. When busy the restaurant gets loud. It's a Latin thing. We speak loudly. It's a cultural thing. I'm guilty of it too. Traditional Cuban restaurant. We love it. Come and Enjoy!!! read more

I have been coming to this place with my husband for many years now. The food, portions and service have always been amazing. I still remember when the price for "carne asada" was $21.99 because is what I ALWAYS order. The price has been going. As you can see from the receipt, the price is now $29 for carne asada. I understand the price for everything has been going up and I'm okay with paying more. However, I am not okay with paying more and getting smaller portions. I have to say I am disappointed to compare the potions of the steak now that the prices have gone up to what I used to get when it was only $21.99. read more

Oh goodness...great food in huge portions. Recommend by our hotel...was not disappointed. Our party of 8 ordered something different. Everyone loved their meal. Chicken steak and the Cuban sandwich were the best in my opinion. Just note the servings are big...so either share or come hungry. read more

I will say the food was good however [[HIGHLIGHT]]I was a bit disappointed that there was a lot of flies that went on our drinks and trying to get to our food[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] we didn't want our drinks and the waitress forced us to pay for the drinks when we felt disgusted with flies in the place. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They need to debug this place[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Let's not forget they don't know the difference between Sprite and starry that is not the same thing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Needs a little work in this location[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Like I said food was good I will consider going back for another review. Another thing the white and red sangrias were not very good I have had great tasting sangrias. Do not recommend them read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Very good place[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] já vou nesse lugar a mais de 20 anos atendimento excelente Muito bom read more

Delish. The hubs and I had a night in Miami before an international flight and decided to grub hub to our hotel after the staff told us they routinely order from here. I went with arroz con pollo and he opted for the shredded chicken. Let me first start by saying the portions are enormous. Each of our portions had to have weighed about a pound or two each and came in their own bag. We had enough to have just my leftovers for breakfast the next day and were stuffed after both meals. The arroz con pollo rice and veggies were my favorite part of the dish whereas the shredded chicken from the hubs dish was the best of his dish. Putting the two together would make an amazing meal. The black beans and rice from the hubs was a touch dry and needed a bit more seasoning. The delivery was fast and friendly and I would definitely come back here if we were back in Miami. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Great place . Everything is good.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Price is relative to what you get. Sometimes places are not always gonna be on point once in a while they drop the ball. People stop being picky, support these businesses. At the end you will be satisfied read more

I've been going to this place for a few years now and it has gotten pretty bad when it comes to service when you get there the waitresses pretty much act like you're a disturbance and they are doing you a favor. The food is OK. It's just regular Cuban food that you can probably find and any other Cuban restaurant but the service is just not doing it for me anymore so I will have to say goodbye, thanks but no thanks read more

This place has nice portions in your food and is relatively inexpensive. I ordered the Rinconcito Special expecting the typical 6' sandwich. Instead, I received two 6' long sandwiches. I had ordered and additional Cuban Sandwich Special due to my original assumption and almost had to return it because I received four sandwiches. The food was pretty good, but CUSTOMER SERVICE could use a little work in my opinion. I would definitely come again. read more

A nice, clean place with delicious food. The portions were more than generous and the people were very nice. Would absolutely recommend. I had a Cuban sandwich and Cafe con Leche which was very, very good. My wife had the picadillo with beans and rice on the side. She loved it and said it was exactly what she was craving. On a personal note, we are currently staying at a hotel nearby due to Hurricane Ian ravaging much of the Fort Myers area, which we fled. One woman who we spoke to at the restaurant actually paid for our dinner. We were extremely touched by this act of kindness. I'm going to go back tomorrow just to thank her and buy her a coffee. read more

Nice restaurant. Food was very good. 2 had liver and said it was excellent, nicely spiced. 1 had grilled steak. Good flavor with yucca and veggies. 1 had steak with sauce. Very tender- like sliced pot roast. Huge savings of rice and plantains. No one working there speaks English very well, but they tried and mostly explained everything. Excellent pricing. The best part was the next morning, I realized that I left my purse there. We ran back from the hotel nextdoor, they had it! Wrapped in a plastic back,locked in the office! Everything was there. This was the 1st day of a cruise vacation - all my $, and credit cards. Grilled Outside Skirt Steak read more

Absolutely fabulous Cuban food. Fast, friendly, and DELICIOUS! Outdoor and indoor seating avail and family friendly environment. Open early and late with a large variety on their menu. My husband and I just happened to meander in and it may be the best Cuban food I have ever had. If you are in the Miami airport area, you need to check this place out. read more

Definitely a big fan. I was staying at the hotel across the street. There were a few chain coffee places right around me and I saw this at the back of the parking lot headed over super nice people. The food was delicious very reasonably priced their coffee con Leche definitely worth a separate stop. read more

La mejor comida Cubana en Miami! Los bistecs son riquísimosos. Y me encanta su arroz congris.

This is a great place. We've been coming for years. The pork chunks ( Masitas ) are some of the best in Miami. The Cuban food here is great. Breakfast is also good . read more

This place is awesome. We decided to eat out light so chose this restaurant. We went there at 6:30 pm and there were not many people. We ordered Cuban sandwich and roast pork. Boy, the portion is huge and my wife and I could eat only half. The Cuban sandwich looks like ham and cheese sandwich but it tasted totally different. It was grilled and warm and the cheese flavor is very unique. The Cuban sandwich I had was cold and I thought that was Cuban. I really like Cuban roast pork and the one I had here was not only big but very tasty. This restaurant is not far from my home and I think I will come back often. Great food with reasonable price read more

Stayed at a nearby hotel and they recommended this place. It is in a strip mall and doesn't look like anything special. We had the snapper and it was DELICIOUS!! Flavorful and moist. The rice is fantastic and I'd order just that it was so good! Also tried fried yucca for the first time and it was very good. read more

Seriously disappointed!! I chose this place to buy food for the entire company to celebrate Mother's Day. Most people chose pan con bistec and the bread was HARD AS A ROCK! Old bread, crappy steak. I'm extra disappointed because this was supposed to be a treat for the staff. It ended up being a huge disappointment! To make things worse, I knew a large order like this could potentially overwhelm the business so I called the day before. The lady very rudely told me to call back the next morning. read more
