Yoandrey was absolutely wonderful ! So kind, knowledgeable, and friendly! All of his food recommendations were outstanding! The food was delicious and the service exceptional ! Can't wait to come back read more

Food was just okay. What really left a bad taste in my mouth was the waitress trying to guilt us into leaving more than the 18% tip that is automatically added to your bill by informing us that she only gets 9% and the rest goes to the restaurant. I'm usually a very big tipper, but that really turned me off. That's between her and the restaurant. Will never go again. read more

Has a beautiful patio area you can eat in. Loved the octopus. Everything was beautifully plated and flavors work well with each other. read more

Marabu Restaurant - Tuna Tasajo - Cuban Near Me - Miami, Florida

Do not recommend this restaurant at all, It was one of the worst restaurants in brickell when it comes to service and food quality. Our orders were wrong and did not bring the correct orders. The worst part is that we went to a Cuban restaurant and they did not have black beans, and we only got told that after they served our food. Would never go back and would not wish for anyone to have their food. read more

The lemonade was on point. Really nice atmosphere friendly services. The food is very very unique not your ordinary cuban food.

Wow Wow Wow This is the best Cuban restaurant in Miami. Nothing comes close. Props to Chef Cabrera and our server Yoandrey. You can't go wrong here! read more

Visited the restaurant yesterday (March 21, 2021). Walked in at 5 PM, left 6:55 PM. Waited 10-15 minutes from start to get order in. I asked about how long it would take to get the food and received the answer : 40 minutes. Our server Caesar was nice in the beginning - going over the menu and giving recommendations but that "service" ended as soon as we ordered. Everything else came late and we waited 15-20 minutes for each request.. Not cool, guys! The funny part is the place was half empty. Server talking to the other tables for 5-10 minutes completely dismissing ours.. at the end, the 18% tip was already included in the bill (for the company of 4) without even asking if the service was really provided.. hefty $22 for what? Going over menu? Not arguing that everyone is going through tough times now and needs to survive and everything but I am pissed being obligated to pay for the service that was barely provided. Food was good - no complains there. My advise, be prepared to spend 2 hours to wait for everything you order unless your server likes you and then maybe, you get better service. read more

Buen lugar, muy buena comida y la atención muy buena. Gracias a la camarera Marcia, excelente trabajo.

First and last time here. Came in for lunch a regular Saturday with my parents (73 year old) came around 2:30pm food didn't get to my table until 4pm 4 tables around us dinned and left and we still didn't get out food. I complain and the manager responds "I wasn't here" like if he wasn't there it wasn't his responsibility after 2 hour wait the food was disgusting the pork belly fried rice was cold as if it was in the fridge and the ribs were literally burned we only tried to eat it because we were so hungry at this point. Then the manager comes to say our meal is complementary like if he is doing me a favor, or if I'm paying a cent for making me wait 2 hours for burned and uncooked food for my diabetic 73 year old parent. Very disappointed read more

Rafael was our waiter twice and the service was excellent. The food is to die for. I would definitely recommend this place for anyone that visits brickel city center. read more

Our group met here on our first night in and it was a great choice. Carlos provided excellent, warm service. The food was all tasty and the original mojito was excellent. We'll definitely return. read more

Had a good time and our server Valentina was amazing. Drinks were great and food was authentic!

Well, never did get to try the food. Was put on hold twice and hung up on another two times when we called trying to make reservations and ask about parking availability since we are from out of town. Not very friendly the individuals that answered the phone. There are too many great restaurants in Miami so... no longer interested in Marabu. its a shame because we had been to Bread and Butter many times before when visiting Miami and the chef was great , but we really don't need the aggravation. Good luck ! read more

Ambience is very nice. Food definitely not the best Cuban food I've had. Pulpo was the best plate of the night and the 4 leches dessert.

I honestly am surprised this has a four star rating. I couldn't find centrale so I stopped here starving. The bartender was very nice and made great drinks but seemed overworked or understaffed. The food on the other hand was really disappointing. I got the croquetas which tastes store bought and a meat entree that took a really long time to come out. The menu looked interesting and the staff was nice but I wouldn't return personally read more

Absolutely amazing! Chicken and the LECHON ASADO would recommend Alassandro really good server read more

We went to Marabu about a week ago and my boyfriend can't stop recommending it to people. Every we had was so good. Not your traditional Cuban food, but delicious and fun! We got the vaca frita - I have to recommend this (so yummy), the frita sliders, the croquettas, and the tres leches (well technically quatro). We highly recommend saving room for dessert for the tres leches - the condensed milk ice cream made it so unique. Everything was so amazing and the drinks were done beautifully, highly recommend the mojitos. Looking forward to the next time we can go back because it felt safe, both the food and service was great, and the prices weren't too bad. read more

What an amazing experience!! The food was delicious and different with the exquisite charcoal-fired meats. Above all, our server Israel went above and beyond with customer service, giving in-depth answers to our many questions, and offering great help and clarity. Will definitely return!!! read more

Stopped in with my family. We experienced too many issues and left annoyed. For simplicity here is the list. 1. Waiter took over 10 minutes to show up after we were seated. 2. Drink order took a very long time. (Near empty restaurant) 3. Tables adjacent to us, sat after we arrived had their main course before we had our starters. 4. Appetizer plates removed very slowly. 5. Drink refill very slow. 6. A grilled fish we ordered was cooked dry as cardboard. Given the horrendous wait we elected to eat as we could. A manager asked us about and we told him. The solution was a free dessert and a Cuban coffee. 7. I asked for the bill before my Cuban coffee ever showed up. Think 20 minutes and my asking 2 people about it. 8. We received a non itemized bill with a whopping 20% tip added. That is disastrous behavior and arrogance. We left feeling cheated. The loud thumping Latin disco music is a further distraction. read more

Great atmosphere inside BCC. The food was top tier delicious. Good service as well. I'd highly recommend for a fun date night

The food is excellent and authentic. Great service super fast. Cocktails are also a plus. Yohanna was our server, she was super sweet and took great care of us. read more

Checked out this spot for the first time a few nights ago. I was really excited to see a new restaurant in BCC, and I was not disappointed! The decor and vibe is super cool, and the servers and staff were so so friendly! We had the lechon asado and masitas, along with a few apps and everything was excellent and worth the price. The food took a little long coming out of the kitchen but it was worth the wait. We'll definitely be back!! read more

Food came after forever. All orders came wrong for all 4 of us. It was definitely not the best Cuban food. Got the roast beef (pan con bistec), didn't like at all. The Cubano sandwich wasn't bad but the bread was super hard. None of us finished our plates, one only tasted it. Do not recommend. read more

Stumbled upon this place while out with my 2 sons. Such a pleasant experience! Great tasting food...friendly and attentive service. I will be bringing my husband back for a date day. Only thing that was "eh" was the service charge auto applied. I get it when there is a big group but I don't when it's a family. I still left extra b/c I liked the servers but it is a turn off when places do this. read more

Food was good. A bit pricey for Cuban food but was happy w the quality. The Cuban sandwich was different than a traditional one but had a lot of ham and was filling. Wish it had more mustard and pickles. Plantains were awesome but the highlight was the white rice! Sooo good! Will order again read more

AMAZING SPOT! so happy we found this new restaurant in brickell city center! Absolutely delicious. The service was amazing our waitress Yohanna was amazing and helpful! This food was delicious. Atmosphere so nice. 10/10 would recommend!!! read more

Asked for a glass of water with my meal- $9.00. Service was poor. Food only ok. After an included 18 percent built in tip the check out process includes a step for tipping. If you miss it you tip twice. read more

Came here because our original plans were canceled due to the rain. We found this place through google. We decided to try and wait for a table. There were 4 parties ahead of us that got seated right away. Once it's our turn the hostess tells us they're closed. We told her she just sat 4 parties less than a minute before us. She said they were still closed. Horrible!!!! read more

Food here is amazing and service is extraordinary. Adrian was serving and I enjoyed his great hospitality.

Very unprofessional staff. I was very dissatisfied with our service as well as with our meal. VERY OVERPRICED food and on top of that, an automatic 18% tip for a waiter that didn't even provide the proper service. Might as well go to chilli's and have a 3 for $10. Will not be coming back here. read more

Venue is nice but I've been extremely disappointed with service. Food is just ok..nothing to rave about. Our first experience the server had to come back multiple times to tell us they were out of specific dishes and furthermore we had ordered 3 different wines b/c they kept coming back to say they were out - finally they said they didn't have any red wine left... how is this possible? My final straw for why I won't dine here again was a recent trip to the bar where a friend and I were having a few rounds with our dinner. Upon receiving our bill we saw that each drink was $30 (mezcal and soda). The server asked my preference between 2 types of mezcal and I asked her to make a recommendation. This is not good service. read more

I don't recommend this place, it's nicely well decorated, the ambiance is good but the food is bad. Extremely disappointed at the food, the server made a great effort since our group was of about 20 people. The problem was that almost no one in our group had anything positive to say about their individual entrées. The croquettes were good, Palomilla was like trying to eat a shoe sole, the tostones weren't cooked thru. My wife even mentioned the Goya frozen tostones are better. Imagine frozen better than fresh. The Lechón Asado was floating in a bowl of watery oily thing called Cuban mojo and came with pork grinds instead of the actual roasted pork skin. That is sloppy as you can get. The rotisserie chicken was hard and we returned it. Too many complaints about the food, but the coffee and flan were fine. If you want authentic Cuban food go somewhere else, if you just want location and don't care about the food and bend over for the high price then this is your place. I won't come back here, not even for coffee neither the other 19 people in our group. read more

New in our neighborhood so we thought to give it a try. Very pretty decor, good service . They cater to the tourist including a 20%tip, locals are not their interest, extremely overpriced and you can find Better Cuban food at Versailles! Trust me! My dish of Masas Fritas was burn Masas Fritas.. we did tell the Manager ... but again, they are not here for a long term ~ no interest whatsoever. So sorry to see all the pretty decor go to waist. read more

The food was great, our server Yoandrey recommended delicious drinks and food. Try the vacafrita and salmon! Thank you Yoandrey
