So we were in the area and needed a quick lunch. My business colleague suggested here says he eats here everyday. Once we arrive even though it was 2 pm on a Friday it was packed. We luckily got one of the parking spaces available behind the restaurant. Once inside we were greeted immediately and shown a booth for the four of us. The waitress was great she took our drink and food order within minutes of sitting down which we needed to get in and out. I got a ginormous dish of fried yuca it was to be an appetizer but the four of us couldn't finish it. I feel the yuca could have been cooked more crispy. It was a bit underdone. The cuban bread basket with melted butter was too delicious I could feel my waistline expanding with each bite. Lastly my bowl of chicken soup it was delicious not the best I think La Carretta is better. I would definitely come back and try one of there many orher menu choices. Especially liked their daily specials maybe I can get hubby to cross the county line on a Sunday as the special is Chicken and rice that day. read more

4.5 stars for a great service, cheap prices and good food! My crew and I ate here this evening, and the place did not disappoint! It was my first time eating at a Cuban restaurant, and tried the yuca for the first time. I also ordered the crispy chicken, and steamed veggies. Very large portion, and I couldn't even finish it. Highly recommended. read more

Great staff great ambiance and a clean facility. I had the chicken noodle soup and a Mahi sandwich. Both were very good, especially the chicken soup! Highly recommended! read more

Went here on a whim after seeing all the reviews and it did not disappoint! The food was fantastic! We had two sangrias, the sampler appetizer, and two sandwiches; it was so much food that we had to take more than half of everything ToGo! Raul was our server, he was attentive and nice. Would highly recommend this place. read more

Latin Cafe is hit or miss. Their churrasco is usually a hit. The black beans are consistently good too. However, for 3 meals in a row, the rice was over cooked and dry. I had the red snapper on another visit and was disappointed as it was overcooked too. At this writing, I had the Bistec de Palomilla and although the flavor was good, it was also a bit dry for my tastes. Back to the rice...I mean, come on. They either cook one huge batch at the beginning of lunch and serve it all day or they just plain old don't know how to make rice. Is it lack of training? Just lack of quality control? I don't know. I do know that a little place one block away called La Granja has consistently great rice. It's always nicely cooked, flavorful and never old or dry. Latin Cafe's management should give it a try and learn how they do it. Look, this may come across as slamming Latin Cafe and I really don't mean to come across that way. I usually stay at a nearby hotel with my work travels and I always look forward to coming here. They just need to be more consistent and clean up the rough edges. The place is clean and the staff is genuinely friendly while providing good service. If it were not for the staff, I would've rated 2 stars due to the inconsistent food quality. read more

Amazing! Very generous portions. Friendly staff. Excellent service. Tasty food. All the elements necessary for a wonderful experience. Even live music and an open air patio! read more

Such a perfect and easy stop to make for the Cuban food that you crave. This is such a welcoming spot and everyone is on point and very friendly. We had the mahi sandwich and it's so big that I'm glad we split it so we could get a few other things on the menu. We finished it off with a mamey shake which was a new taste experience and one that I would highly recommend. Stop in for a bite! read more

I liked it! I'm not easily disappointed and I was in a rush so I got a Miami sandwich. Really good club with a good filling portion that I can save for later. The platters here look really good too.

Latin Cafe 2000 - Miami Sandwich - Latin American Near Me - Miami, Florida

Miami is filled with many, many, many Cuban hotspots. Latin Cafe 2000 hits the spot. They have good sandwiches and fresh juices. If you are in the area of Miami Airport or Lejune this is a great place right off the 836 freeway. Anywhere outside there are other great spots as mentioned. You can order ahead for pick up or order at the window for quicker service, especially if you are getting a sandwich or smaller appetizers. read more

We came here for lunch before our flight to Cuba. At first, we hesitated about having Cuban food before going to Cuba. Did we really want to have it if that was all we were going to eat for a week? Well, I am so glad we ate here. The experience was absolutely wonderful. The menu is huge with lots and lots of options, much like a diner. I agonized about what to order. Everything looked so good. Eventually I settled on the omelette with plantains, which was fluffy and savory. My husband had the churros, which were light and delicious, and the steak sandwich, which also was yummy. In looking at the plates of our fellow diners, you could see that you couldn't make a single mistake in ordering there. Everything appears to be fresh and smelled so good. Our waitress was so kind and attentive. She said that she worked there for 12 years. You could also see many repeat customers there, with whom she was speaking; she definitely had her regulars. We had a break in between flights for out return home a week later, and tried to return for dinner. However, we were short on time, and were disappointed when we were unable to make it. If we make it back to Miami, we will WITHOUT QUESTION, go back there. We loved this place. YOU MUST GO! read more

We found the restaurant by accident and extremely pleases with the result. If you are lucky enough to get Jovana as your server (not sure of the spelling, but she used to work for the Latin American in Vizcayne) she is extremely efficient and and will not steer you wrong. I felt like eating a churrasco and to be honest it was cook perfectly and incredibly tender. Also it was a true skirt steak on this day and age that many restaurants are replacing the skirt steak for flank steak. Is not the same nor it taste the same. One of the best churrasco steaks I have eaten in a very long time!! read more

Our waitress Sandra I think was her name was so sweet and attentive. The food was delicious and the vibe was very family oriented.

First stop on my food tour of Miami. A very close stop to the airport. I used the walk up window for some quick bites and coffee. Very authentic and very fast. The coffee if the best. Get it, sip savor, enjoy. Had a couple beef empanadas and potato balls. Everything was super fresh and flavorful. The delighted sortie was the watermelon juice. It wss like biting into a fresh watermelon on s summer day. All in all, if coffee back for a full dining experience and evaluate the customer service and venue. The place is hugely popular, there aas a constant line while I was sitting on the patio. read more

I am definitely a fan but I feel out of place, since I don't speak Spanish. Carryout orders, the phone will be answered in Spanish, so don't be surprised. The food here is excellent, I tried many dishes and they were all good. Service is fast and friendly, and if you sit outside, you might get a visit from a friendly kitty who roams the property. read more

Food so good better than cheeseburger from McDonald's the steak here is heaven I love it

Ate here while staying at a hotel across the street. Wish I could take this restaurant back to Austin with me! Absolutely amazing meal and service (Nancy was prompt and friendly). Also, superb pricing with large portions. Eat here. Do it. And eat the Tres Leches, it won't disappoint. If I'm ever back in Miami, I will definitely return. read more

Excellent food! Even the non-Cuban dishes!!l. I recommend the roasted pork w/ mashed potatoes on the side and salad!

I've eaten here several times over the years and was always pleased with the food and service. But tonight, I took my girlfriend, who was not familiar with Cuban food. She is now a convert! Our server, Amy, couldn't have been nicer, explaining everything in detail to a newbie. What a sweetheart she is! The food was great, came out very fast and was very reasonable. Highly recommend! read more

Ordered a wide variety of items to be delivered to our hotel since we didn't have the desire to venture outward. We ordered the ceviche (our favorite thing we got!), blackened Mahi tacos, cheese and guava tequenos, beef empanadas (would have been better if it wasn't missing the dipping sauce), the Elena guava sandwich (2nd favorite) & the bistec de res a la milanesa w the rice bean mix (moros o congris) and mashed potatoes. Great portions and everything tasted great. Happy we went with this rather than the run of the mill food probably offered within the hotel. Would recommend! read more

Good place for a nice dinner with family and ir with friends. Overall it can become a better place with live music band. The cooking is good... Pure Cuban style :) The servents are nice, courteous and very respectful. I recommend this place. read more

This place was conveniently across the street from my hotel, so my friends and I decided to try it. We were seated pretty quickly. We got cuban bread while we waited. I ordered the palomilla and we got a pitcher of sangria to share. The steak was delicious. Our server brought our cups full of fruit and poured our sangria at the table and left the rest of the pitcher. Between 3 of us we had 3 glasses each from the pitcher which was a good deal! read more

We were delighted by the warm personality of our server who made us feel like we will return again and again!! The Beef Empanadas melt in your mouth and the best we have ever tasted.

We enjoyed it and will return for the great service as well as it's great food! read more

I bought the Creole Shrimp plate with sweet plantains and steamed vegetables. I had ordered just that and saw that I get a free Elena Guava sandwich for checking in on Yelp and showed it to them because why not? They added it to my order and told me that the offer had expired so I told them that I don't want it anymore. The guy next to me ordered and paid for a cafe con leche for me (very sweet of him). The order came out to $30 and at first, I thought maybe the shrimp plate was pricier than I thought so I hit "print receipt" to view my order. They never gave me my receipt. When I looked on the menu, the shrimp plate itself should have only been $14.49 so I was confused. I asked them for my receipt when I finally got my food (where she dug out of the trash to find it for me) and I saw that they charged me for the Elena Guava Sandwich and the cafe con leche. I should have spoken up about it at the restaurant but I had a flight to catch so I had to leave as soon as I got my food. When I opened my container, I see 5 shrimps and 3 plantains...idk if that's normal..but I guess for $15, that's fine. The fact that I paid $30 for that, I'm not super happy with. They did add the sandwich in my bag but I wouldn't have ordered it if it weren't for the (expired) offer..the food itself was ok but I'm pretty disappointed in the portions (just because a ton of reviews say that the portions here are normally huge) and the service. read more

Greedy Girl Moment: Get into this vaca frita from @latincafe2000 on Lejune! Succulent shredded beef marinated in a savory mojo then grilled to create a toasty outer crust. Paired with sautéed mixed vegetables with a hint of lemon. But the star of the meal is this rice! I don't eeeeeeven eat beans so you know it's goodT if I like it. Baby, it's bursting with fragrant notes of onion, garlic,herbs and the kind of love that lets you know somebody's abuela in the kitchen putting their whole rodilla y piè in that pot! read more

Looking for a nice Cuban food chain? The food is just as good as Versailles but without the absurd line that the other restaurant have. Here is the breakdown: FOOD Very well priced, fairly cheap. The food is well done and most of the choices come with two sides. Carne asado, churrasco and the Cuban sandwich are some of my favorite things to other. Also, at the end, for Cuban coffee lovers, make sure to order colada. Amazing. SERVICE Fast service, friendly waiters. The food came out fairly fast. DECOR/ AMBIANCE Very casual and family oriented place. So a nice place to go when you just want like a fast and calm dinner without having to worried about dressing up. oVERALL Food spot to go have a casual family or friend dinner. Good food, fair price. Very casual environment. read more

Yesterday I had my lunch here and usually I would not come back to the same place especially if am traveling but, today in here again for breakfast. That in itself tells this place is awesome. I tried grilled Salman with steamed veggies and rice w/ beans, which was just delicious. Today I got the Cuban coffee w/milk, scrambled eggs and potatoes and that's next level. I loved the coffee so much that I got a to go. And most importantly they got a beautiful patio. read more

Best Colombian foods and specialty the coffee mind blowing .. such booster there coffee shots

Not sure why this place doesn't get more good reviews. It's not pretty but it's not a dive either. It's also very reasonable for what you get I had the Churrasco with Chimichurri. A skirt steak grilled to perfection with a very nice char. It didn't say prime on the menu but it could have passed for prime. The steak was juicy and tasty but pretty much just thrown on the plate with a bit of iceberg lettuce mix for presentation. Hence the loss of a star. But it's a star that's not important. It comes with a choice of two sides. I got the sweet plantains and French fries. Fries were ok plantains were perfect. I also got a bowl Sopa de Cebolla Gratinada. French Onion Soup. A bit salty but lots of melted cheese that could have had a bit more char to the crust but also very good. The person I was with got the Blackened Mahi Mahi and Salad plus black beans and rice. Once again the presentation was lacking but he cleaned his plate. It was less than $50 for both of us including the tip. If I lived anywhere near this place I would be there 5 times a week. They had a vast menu and most everything looked really good. read more

As I was heading to my hotel I realized that Latin Café 2000 had an awesome walk up window. I stopped by the next morning and there were a few people in line and I saw that the restaurant was already open serving breakfast. They have a really cool Smart Car wrapped in their logo and a rooster running around the parking lot. I took a seat at the counter and the server welcomed me, shared a menu - I ordered the Tortilla Latin Café 2000 ($7.99) it was an omelet with a choice of fillings, I had Spanish sausage and American cheese (there were lots of other options too); it also comes with Cuban toast, potatoes and café con leche. They brought me a hot cup of steamed milk with a small metal pitcher of strong Cuban coffee on the side, a basket with a huge slab of buttered pressed Cuban toast and an omelet with lots of cheese and sausage. The server was very friendly, took great care of me, checking back to see if I needed anything else. Great service, wonderful Cuban food and a great value. There seems to be plenty of parking and they have an outside patio as well; I can't wait to be back in Miami to check them out for other food! read more
