Best at it they came back strong with the classic pan con lechón gets no betterr service is 1000%

Not impressed, but willing to give it another try sometime in the future. It was mostly the less then ok service. This review is mostly to remind myself the next time I look it up in the future. I hope I caught them on an off day, and other folks have a much better experience. So 3 stars for now. read more

Hello fellow Yelpers, here is another review. The name isn't for show--it is literally the best roasted pig sandwich in Miami. They have small, medium, and large sandwiches, along with other food options. The sandwich is recommended. It is not overwhelming with too many ingredients or meat. You can taste the crunch from the skin and the juiciness from the pork. You can choose to get it with onions and spicy. The sandwich is delicious. The service is good, with attentive and nice servers. The location is basically in the center of Allapattah, right by Juan Pablo Duarte Park, where they host Dominican events. It is a good spot for a quick bite and a picnic. While the area may not be in the best shape, it can get active. If you are looking to get a drink, eat, relax, and not be judged, this is an ideal spot. You should give them a chance and check them out. read more

The last time I came here I was a child probably under 10 years old and I decided to visit again now that I'm 30 and the flavor is still the same! My pan con lechon was delicious! I'm a little sad that they forgot the hot sauce but nonetheless the sandwich was devoured in like 3 minutes lol read more

It IS the best Pan Con Lechon in Miami and Zion, the Jamaican chef is THE man. This may not be a hipster spot, but it is not to be missed. Cubans, Dominicans, Puerto Ricans, Jamicans all converge here. The "Flauta" is an entire Cuban loaf double stuffed with pork and onions feeds 4. We had leftovers because we ordered a small with no onion for Laurie. It's massive. Juicy, garlicky. Haunting. read more

After reading so many "the best pan con lechon" sandwich, I had to try this place. Today, I had a doctor's appointment near this place. I asked my friend to join me for a quick lunch. They don't really have a menu but with my limited Spanish, they said, "pan con lechon." haha... They had 3 sizes; small, medium, and large. The large looked like a giant sandwich. So, we both ordered the small with drink. Sandwich took less than 10 minutes. It was big enough even though it was small. I was a bit disappointed with the amount of lechon inside. With the drink and one small sandwich, I paid $13 plus tip. I really had a high hope for this place. The sandwich was good but to me, it was not really the best in Miami. The ladies don't speak much English but friendly enough. This place is mainly a take out place. But they have some tables inside where you can take your sandwich and eat there. Not a fancy place but you can get your sandwich to go. The parking is also a bit tricky. Tight and limited spaces. The place seems always busy. People are stopping by all the time to place their orders. read more

Best pork sandwich in town - hands down. And they to take credit cards - not cash only anymore

Was in the area and saw this place that an IG food influencer had given a good rating so decided to stop by. The service was quick and sandwiches were served impressively quick. I've had many pan con lechón sandwiches in my life and this one fell a bit short. I felt that it lacked some kind of flavor. I also wasn't really too big of the chicharrón bits in the sandwich, but that's personal preference. I wish the sandwich has a bit more to it maybe even just some mayo could help. I ordered a mango slush which was very refreshing but I wish they had natural mango juice instead. read more

It is a tried and true salt of the earth but super yummy option if you are in area. Don't expect super fancy but expect true Miami experience read more

Pretty good pan con lechón. No frills no extras. I ordered a whole Cuban bread size to take home and share. When I got home I put it in the oven to warm, about 200f. It's was just fresh soft Cuban bread, chopped lechón...pretty flavorful without being over seasoned, and some diced onions. Simple and satisfying. There's not much to say about the place it has an area to eat in and an outdoor area advertised as a party space. They do take credit cards or cash. And they advertise fresh juices but they stuff in the machines looked far from fresh. I would recommend just coming to pick up an enjoy at home. That way if you want you could add some extras to your sandwich. I would come back if in the area and craving some pan con lechón. I wouldn't say it's a must but you would be surprised how good something so simple could be. read more

Old style pan con lechon pretty damn good with a cold Presidente beer hard to beat! Good stuff

I am so happy it's still there after all these years! Don't fix something that is not broken. Pan con lechón is still the best in town. Don't bother getting anything less than the full loaf cause you'll want to keep eating it.. Simple warn soft cuban bread, chopped white onion. Diced pork meat. That's it. You can get hot sauce if you want. Service is fast, these ladies don't play around. read more

Amazing pan con lechón! The onions and hot sauce really make the flavors pop. Will be back!

I don't know what to say besides the fact I just simply expected more. The pan con lechón sandwiches were decent, the best part was how fast they were prepared and the price might be unbeatable. I ordered the spicy sandwich which just comes with added Tabasco sauce from what I could gather. Not sure if you can order extra toppings but would probably help add some flavor if you add tomatoes or lettuce. Again no idea if you can though. Will ask at my next go around! read more

If you are into a no glamour type of place this is it. The parking not so good because you have to fight for a spot with another car. The food/sandwiches are so good! Don't forget to get the spicy sauce they make. You won't regret it. read more

Really sad. based on fame we were expecting great pork. What we found was a mediocre pork sandwich, unenthusiastic service, and loud music that you can't hear yourself talking. Has parking at the front though. We left sad. read more

What a horrible experience. The staff was rude and the "pan con lechón" was so salty that I couldn't even finish half of it. Maybe their lechón is good but I couldn't taste it because of all the salt that they added at the end. I don't even know why she added salt to the sandwich. Will not return and that's a shame. Just horrible, my mouth is all salty read more

This place use to be the best pan con lechon in the area. I remember taking a bite and the mojo and hot sauce would drip down. It was delicious every single bite. Every time you'd drive by, it'll be packed. I recently went back and it was not the same at all. I believe they have new owners because the name changed but so did the quality of the food. The lechon was dry and cold as well as the whole sandwich. One thing I don't enjoy is cold food that also taste too much like the animal. I can't describe it but not my cup of tea. read more

Best hole in the wall for a quick bite to eat. Most mouth watering pork sandwich you can have in all of Miami. If you're staying on vacation or just a quick weekend trip this is the kind of place you want to stop in for don't expect five star dining. In the 20 years of going there, the food has never disappointed read more

The lechón was made fresh loved it. Definitely I did but my girlfriend didn't. We come again.

The og spot for pan con lechón! A flauta is only $17 and comes with pork, onions and hot sauce inside an entire loaf of Cuban bread. It's a Cuban staple that they always get right. They also have selections of natural juices and there is barely any seating area outside and the sun is scorching outside so it's mostly a take out spot. Honestly they used to add WAY more pork about 1-2 years ago like packed barely able to close. Now it's kinda flat but it's still very delicious and worth it. I usually ask for extra hot sauce which isn't very hot at all but it's acidic and makes the bread soggy which is amazing with the crispy outside of the bread and crispy pork skin pieces. The meat is juicy and tender and the onions give it major flavor. The service is super quick you're in and out in 10 minutes which has made this my go to lunch spot lately. read more

Ni con hambre, se puede comer..... I am a big fan of Pan con Lechon (PCL/Cuban chopped pork sandwich), and this is not the very best PCL Miami has to offer. You'd think that a place that is supposedly famous for the PCL would take some pride in their product? Not so with my sandwich. The meat was room temperature and so lacking in flavor, that no amount of salt or hot sauce could redeem it. The bread tasted a few days old, and the staff couldn't care less about food hygiene. I am surprised that a food inspector hasn't shut this place down already. It's sad to see how a once-popular spot for good cheap Cuban fare has turned into a disaster. My advice, keep driving. There are plenty of other places in the Allapatah neighborhood that have great food and atmosphere. SYOY! read more

This place has been here since the 1970s. It's a little run down, but the pork was juicy, portions are good, bread was nice and soft. The pan con lechon was missing salt or some type mojo maybe. They offer a hot sauce served in a container that needs a good scrubbing. I didnt get sick, so there's that. read more

Want to eat the best pan con lechon? Well come to the Allapattah who doesn't love a roast pork sandwich freshly made? I've been coming to this establishment for more than 30 years now. This place is one of these hole in the wall restaurant that you definitely come to try. This sandwich comes in three different sizes: flauta(whole) , 1/2 a flauta $8 (which feeds 2) and a chiquito. You the options to add onions and hot sauce, I pretty much tell them "con todo" with everything for my non-Spanish readers. I love that they freshly baked their own Cuban bread. Depending on the time of day parking can be a little hectic. I haven't been here in over year, and was a little surprised with the remodeling/revamping of the place, and made a couple of changes because once upon a time this was a CASH only establishment. I noticed a sign where credit cards were being accepted and they made it more appealing if you decided to dine-in. They also sell pan con bistec, which is pretty good and different flavor smoothies (Piña Colada, strawberry, coconut, etc.) I would recommend a pan con lechon with "todo" and guzzle it down with a very ice Coke. If you can't come to Allapattah, you can always catch in the Marlin Stadium. Enjoy read more

Papo Llega Y Pon - I know I'm late, but liking the new look. - Cuban Near Me - Miami, Florida

The pork sandwich was real good. It's a lil joint with seating outside and inside. Parking is a premium. We got the $10 sandwich and it fed 2 of us. Get it with "everything", it's delicious. If you eat it right there fresh and hot, you won't be sorry! I must say the portion was generous and it took about 5 mins from order to food served. It's def worth a visit! I will for sure go back! read more

Once upon a time this WAS the best pan con lechon in Miami; this is no longer the case. I was so underwhelmed that last few times I came here. The lechon was bland and the bread was soggy. No longer a fan. read more

I have mixed feelings about my visit here. It was okay. After hearing so many good things I think I was expecting a little more. The bread on the pork sandwich was good, probably the best part of the meal. The pork itself wasn't as flavorful as I was expecting. I had some extremely hard pieces in my sandwich that I had to spit out because I couldn't chew them at all. I also didn't love the temperature of the sandwich. It was room temperature, not warm and not cold. This gave me a weird feeling while eating it because I was unsure how long the meat was sitting out before it made it on my sandwich. The hot sauce they had was very good. read more

My husband and I have had own eyes on this place for some time now, especially my husband, as he grew up eating pan con lechon. Just a disclaimer, this is not a nice restaurant, it is a very simple, and some can even say poorly taken cared for. They do have a bar area where you can eat after you've received your order, or you may sit inside. They have other options apart from their known pan con lechon. You can have tamales, congri and yuca as well if you'd like something a little extra. To order, you have the option of picking different sizes, I believe it's 8, 12 and 16. They also ask if you'd like the sandwich with or without onions and if you'd like their spicy sauce. You can also ask them to add the crunchy skin of the pig, otherwise known as the chicharron, for an extra crunch and flavor. We opted for an 8inch with onion and no spicy sauce. They prepare the sandwich right in front of you which I love. They have their oven warmer behind them which they grab a fresh loaf of bread from as well a grand piece right off the pig that is soooo tender that they grab with their hands. (With gloves on of course). Thats when you know it's gonna be good! The sandwich was very flavorful, the meat very juicy and not as dry as you'd expect from roasted pig which is my biggest worry every time with lechon. The onions are definitely a compliment, I recommend and the mojito they use is amazing. No complaints whatsoever in regards to the food. The reason why I'm giving this restaurant 3 stars even though the pan con lechon was very good is due to the lack of sanitation and cleanliness of the restaurant. There was no sanitation between customers, the bar area was not clean, and even the restaurant itself looked very dirty which at least for me, ruins the experience. read more

What an awesome place for a pan con lechon sandwich! Been craving a great pulled pork sandwich for some time and like the meat pulled, not chopped into little pieces. The bread was fresh and pork delicious. Was my first time there. Next time I know exactly how to order. Some hot sauce was put on, I would prefer not to have it. I would ask for a little mojito, and have it placed on press to heat up nice and warm. They were quick and friendly. I would recommend this place. It gets VERY busy fast. Really good though. read more

Papo Llega Y Pon - Huge full flaunta...asked for half and she just gave me a full I didn't fight it. - Cuban Near Me - Miami, Florida

YES YES YES! So I have been wanting to try this place for a while and thursday I was running some errands around the area, so I ordered myself a media for $8 which is half a flauta de pan cubano(it's bigger than the cuban breads you take home from the bakeries). The pan con lechon was amazing, the bread was PERFECT making this sooo good with right amount of pork and some chopped onions, mojo and picante. This is located on 17th and 29th, the place is literally like a little house with big windows that you go up to and order to go or stay sitting right there to eat you sandwich. MUST TRY!!!! read more
