    1st time at this hidden gem in Hialeah , we did our research before going , we were very curious about it , and we are so happy we decided to go. Food was really good , we had pulpo a la gallega , patatas a la brava, tabla de serrano and manchego cheese , croquetas de jamón ibérico and manchego cheese , empanadas de rabo encendido, paella de mariscos , crema catalana and tumbitas fritas, everything was tasty and delish, we also had sangria. The service was great by Amanda and another girl , ambience was fun , good live music , the bathroom was clean , we'll be back for sure. You got to try this restaurant. They have great every day specials, check them out!!!!

    Small place very dark but the service was on point & the meal was very delicious! The price was affordable & the portions was good.

    This place is literally the definition of a "hole in the wall". As we were driving to the place, it seemed like it was in the middle of nowhere. Be aware that parking is pretty tight. But there is a family dollar parking lot across which has some parking available. As soon as you walk in, you feel like you've been transported to Spain. It feels like those little bodegas. So keep in mind the tables are pretty close together. There is a wall that displays all their wines and it's beautiful. They also have a stage and there's flamenco on Saturdays! Our waiter was awesome. It was our first time and we were in a large group of 12. And he was very patient with us. He thoroughly explained the menu to us and answered any questions we had. All the food came out relatively quickly and he was on top of making sure everything was delivered to the table. So menu wise it's a Cuban flare Spanish style restaurant. So think tapas and paellas and some Cuban dishes too like vaca frita. It was a great combo. We went for a bottle of wine and a tabla mixta. The tabla was huge. Great for the price. We added an order of pan tumaca and omg that's a board in itself! Delicious!! We also tried the croquetas mixtas which bring 2 croquetas de jamón y manchego and 2 croquetas de paella! Yes.. you read right, paella croquetas! Of course we had to try it. It actually tasted just like paella lol!! It was quite interesting! I loved it! But the jamón y manchego croqueta was the favorite among the table. We also got an order of chorizo en vino and it was delicious as well. For dessert I got the crema catalana. The taste was perfect. And finished it off with an espresso and that espresso was the highlight. Que Rico! The perfect Cuban espresso! It was a Saturday night so we did get to enjoy the flamenco dancer and guitarist. It was amazing. Definitely recommend checking this place out! But make reservations!

    My boss highly recommended this spot so I decided to take the ride out to Hialeah. Our waiter was very attentive and friendly, inside was dimly lit and nice. The food was ok, not great. I would go back and try other items on the menu.

    Favorite local restaurant for the croquetas and Chuletón de Buey! Ambiance is very homey and our Spanish server is a doll. Food is delicious and worth more than just one visit, actually becoming a favorite.

    Do they have brunch on the weekend? Where can I find the menu?

    No, no brunch. You can find the menu in the photos. They just recently updated their menu but it is relatively the same.

    La Tasca G is such a great little restaurant…read more It is actually a Local's Gem. The owner ... Guisella, a Cuban with Spanish roots, actually just came back after living in Spain for many years and wanted to bring to Miami a little of what she loves from her time there... her love for the food and tapas, bar, etc. This humble restaurant is located in an unassuming area in the west Hialeah area... but packing a ton of flavor into their dishes. Croquettes, Paella, chorizo, octopus... and so on... everything was delicious. You must come here if you want to have a good time and a great meal. Prices are on the cheaper side compared to other local restaurants that do not compare on food quality. (LA Tasca G is it!) Pro tip... ask for items of the menu like matrimonio pincho (a bread toast with tomatoes, onion, anchovies with an olive oil vinaigrette) and many more. The ceviche is also great and only $9.00 This restaurant was a great surprise for which I hope I can enjoy many more times. 2 thumbs up

    In the heart of Hialeah, is a Cuban/Spanish restaurant that offers typical Cuban cuisine. Nicely…read morepriced for lunch. The service is very good as they offer an outside window for coffee, shakes, and small order pick ups. The ambience inside offers you a little of everything from gaming on the back wall to tables and seats as you walk in. I'd say a place for lunch when you're in the mood for Cuban style food.

    I feel obligated to write a review for this cafeteria/ restaurant based on my own experience…read more I have read some reviews that say service here is bad. In my experience is actually the opposite. Maybe it is due to the fact that this restaurant changed ownership or management a few years ago and things seem to have improved since. Service is fast, friendly and attentive. Other reviews said that they pay no attention to detail as far as food presentation..... "it is a cafeteria" not a Michelin rated restaurant. Having said that, quality of food here is good, it is plentiful and inexpensive. Most clients here are from warehouses around the area and it only opens from early morning until like 6 pm. They bake their own Cuban bread on premises and have lots of daily specials ranging from like 6.50 to 9.00 dollars. Their Ajiaco, a Cuban soup, is delicious. Also very good here is Rabo encendido (oxtail stew) among others. But almost everything is good here... rice, beans, sandwiches and batidos. Having a coffee after lunch? Mary's cortadito is very good.... and it doesn't lack presentation either. Cold beers are always available. Thumbs up.

    Came for dinner on a weekday. Mixed feelings on the food, quality, authenticity, and cost. The…read moreservice was good. They came to fill up waters, were very nice, just that they were a little slow. The place is nice and they must have live music because there is a small stage at the corner setup for a musician, maybe a band of 2 people. Now the food. Overall expensive for what you get, except for a couple of things. The appetizers were actually good. We had croquetas de bacalao (cod fish croquettes) and croquetas de Chistorra. The chistorra croquettes were quite good. Each order brought 6 small croquettes for $12 each. So each bite was $2. Fried calamari were ok but way too pricey at $14 for the quality. Maybe acceptable if it was from Dominos pizza at half the price. The grilled octopus was good but at $24 for one 8-inch tentacle, it's a bit much. Overall, appetizers were good. For entrees we ordered Sardinas fritas at ajillo. These were good and for $14 I think the price was fair. Fabada Asturiana for $13 was not good. It felt as it was made a day ago. The fabes were overcooked and mushy. The morcilla was not of great quality. It had a piece of pork belly fat that was not very appealing and it didn't have neither the taste or traces of lacón (ham hock). The Callos à la madrileña were also a letdown. Not enough broth. It was made with garbanzo (chickpeas) which is not traditional. It has chistorra instead of chorizo. And the tripe did not taste great and at $18 it was even worse. Lastly we also got the grilled chicken with potatoes. $24 was a bit much. This was probably worth no more than $14. The chicken was cooked ok, but they left a lot of the nerves, fat, and cartilage so it was not a great experience eating it. We are of spanish descent and eaten great Spanish food. This restaurant unfortunately was not a great experience in the food quality. Some things were good, some just bad, and overall was way to expensive for what it is. I probably won't be coming back.

Su aroma, los detalles pintorescos --donde la madre patria respira en cada rincón-- y los platos servidos con amor hicieron temblar los recuerdos hasta humedecerme la mirada. España no es solo un lugar que visité; es un latido, el más intenso de mi vida. En Madrid escuché por primera vez el corazón de mi hija, ese sonido sagrado que hizo brotar mis lágrimas y que me volvió la mujer más eterna. Saber que fue concebida allá convierte a esa tierra en un territorio íntimo, donde la vida se escribió dentro de mí. Y, como si el universo quisiera guiñarme un ojo, apareció Yusnier, quien nos atendió con suma gentileza y profesionalidad, interesado en "Complicidad Desnuda", mi segundo libro. Lo grabé y fotografié, porque hay encuentros que merecen quedarse. Disfruto el arte culinario español como pocos. Así como alimenta mi cuerpo, lo hace también con la memoria, la nostalgia y el deseo del regreso. Gracias al restaurante "El Pimiento". Gracias, España, que me susurras al oído. Gracias a quienes creen en mis letras. Hoy me siento profundamente feliz, plena y absoluta con lo que soy: una autora libre, que escribe lo que quiere y como quiere, sensible, erótica y fiel a su "Complicidad". Laidy Pérez Escritora
