We were so glad we booked our stay across the street at Tranquility Bay Resort because it led us to this gem! This restaurant is an absolute MUST if you're visiting Marathon. Whether you're looking for a relaxing breakfast or a delicious dinner, this is the place to go. We ordered the omelets, which were fantastic, and they came with fresh Cuban-style bread that was absolutely delicious. Pair that with a café con leche, and you have the perfect start to your day. What made the experience even better was the hospitality. The owner, Kenia, came out to visit with us and made us feel genuinely welcome. Our server, Claudia, was an absolute delight, friendly, attentive, and full of positive energy. The food and service were so good that we ate breakfast here twice during our vacation, and we're coming back for dinner tonight. That's probably the best recommendation we can give! If you're anywhere near Tranquility Bay or just passing through Marathon, don't miss this place. Great food, wonderful people, and the kind of welcoming atmosphere that keeps you coming back. read more

Chaotic in the morning but really tasty food. The ambience is ok Outdoors nice but it's hot when it's hot out there. Fresh oj is fresh squeezed but not cheap. But very delicious. Loved the Cuban bread and home fries. But honestly this was nothing special beyond the Cuban cafe Would def go back but not expecting anything more than a good breakfast in a mediocre location. We had a basic breakfast with Cuban toast -- delicious-- and Cuban coffee here. read more

Sweet service and delicious cafe con leche. Their empanadas make for a great snack if you are in a hurry, but they have a vast menu.

On our return trip from Key West Tripadvisor let us hear for Cuban cuisine and we were not disappointed. Ample parking, a warm greeting and outstanding breakfast burritos, smoothies, and the perfect bowl of grits. Many wonderful choices for breakfast and lunch and everyone here has a smile on their face. Our server, Jeidy, checked on a several times, & made sure we had everything we needed for a delicious meal, including hot sauce. We highly recommend just a Paradise Cuban Restaurant! read more

This place is amazing!! We road our bikes to Paradise several times during our visit to Marathon. Hayley's homemade bread comes out hot and fresh. Absolutely authentic Cuban coffee! The home potatoes are where it's at. And the proof is all the sweet and friendly Cuban grandmas who start their day, every morning on the patio. Oh! And don't miss the homemade ham and cheese empanadas. (My mouth is watering, remembering them.) The staff was so friendly and engaging - clearly proud of their incredible food.

Breakfast was wonderful. Sitting outside we got serenaded by birds. Mom and pop place. Richelle loved her Cuban Breakfast and dad loved his Cuban omelette. Both said the bread was fantastic, and the Cuban coffee was what they need to start their day. I had a Cuban frappe. Make sure to check out the tables inside, they have helpful translations between Cuban, Spanish and English. Two of my favorites: An older man who likes younger women, and they are not very good in bed. read more

The cuban sandwich is i was driving back w mom from key west. We shared the cuban sandwich and fries. Get it!

The Guarapo Has The Signature Sugar Cane Taste, And The Perfect Amount Of Sweetness. The Flancake Vanilla Is Absolutely Delicious. The Ensalada Fría Was Very Unique To Say The Least. Ensalada Fría Is Normaly A Bit More Sweet And Savory. But This Place's Ensalada Fría Is Sweet And Garlicky. But The Employees Are Super Nice. And The Ambiance Of The Restaurant Was Nice And Very Welcoming. read more

If driving to Key West or back, this is a must stop. Has the most authentic Cuban sandwich in the Keys (real hot pork shoulder) did not skimp, fresh Cuban bread, melted Swiss cheese, and pressed. The beef empanadas did not disappoint either; they are as close to what grandma used to make... read more

Absolute MUST! We had a GIANT Cuban sandwich that was packed with flavor and perfectly pressed. The deli counter had a combo meal, so I grabbed the chicken with seasoned rice and boiled yucca--total comfort food done right. The Cuban coffee was bold and smooth, a must-have. We couldn't decide between the conch chowder or lobster bisque, so we got both--and they made them fresh for us on the spot! Everything was rich, fresh, and absolutely delicious. 10/10 would come back in a heartbeat! read more

Cuban sandwiches tasted like perfume or soap. We ordered 8 and they all tasted terrible.

We had a pleasant time here when we visited Marathon . The breakfast was well cooked. Great service and ambiance. We will definitely come back read more

Very cute locale with great food and service. I had the guarapo, ham and cheese pizza, and the tostada. The guarapo was very good and actually pretty close to what it tastes like in Cuba. The pizza was also very good, it had nice crispy edges that reminded me of actual Cuban pizza and was overall pretty close to the original. The tostada, Cuban bread pressed with a lot of butter, was so delicious that I was thinking of getting more. read more

awesome food and service. nice atmosphere, best for a quick bite. the outside patio is super

This place had the best Cuban sandwich I have ever eaten in my life, not only was the quality spectacular, but the quantity was excellent as well, since they give you almost an entire loaf of bread for the Cuban sandwich. The service was excellent and you can tell the food is made with lots of love. Also the frozen fruit drinks that they make are amazing too, they are made with fresh fruit and you can definitely tell. I would highly recommend this place!! read more

Only had the Cuban coffee which was superb and highly recommended. Didn't get a chance to try any of the food.

On June 17th I was at the Juice Paradaise Restaurant in Marathon at lunch time and ordered a Fish Sandwich (Minute) and it really wasn't even half fish, it was just bread, an immense amount of lettuce and tomato. Every time I pass by work on my way to Key West I go there for lunch but the quality has greatly decreased at this establishment. The service was slow because there was only one waitress for the entire place and the cook. The place was empty when we arrived and then two more customers arrived. The price seemed exaggerated to me for such poor quality in the product offered, although I left a tip out of politeness but in reality it wasn't worth it considering the time I had to wait and the slow service received, thank you very much Marcos Louit read more

This place is great. You can find all these fancy places made to cater to tourist, fancy dishes or over embellished plates. It gets old. Sometimes you want something home cooked that's family made in a family made environment. This is it. The ladies who run this place and the gentleman who cook make it feel like you're home and Abuela and mom are making you a simple breakfast. We came back two days in a row. read more

Worst food I ever had! Walked in and the place was empty. The cook was sitting on a bucket behind the register, looked like he wasn't ready to go back to work cause I walked in. Ordered a steak quesadilla and there was no peppers or onions, just cheese and steak. The tortilla wasn't even toasted enough for the cheese to melt in the middle. Also ordered a Cuban sandwich and the pork wasn't even hot! I had to microwave it when I got back to the hotel. Awful! Never going back. read more

Paradise Cuban Restaurant - Cuban Near Me - Marathon, Florida

I've only been here a couple times this week and a few times a couple years ago, and my only mission was a cup of coffee. I am completely hooked on Cuban coffee and unfortunately can't get it in New York. I mean then again I haven't really looked too hard but still, it's not just on the corner down the road. The staff always seems friendly and I have never had any problems or difficulties here. I read all the reviews that save these people sometimes include gratuities with the price they charge you however I can't say anything about that because honestly I wasn't really paying attention. They set the coffee down, I put down $5 and we're good. I'm assuming it covers the cost because the brute squad has yet to kick my butt in the parking lot. read more

Got breakfast here all the time on vacation. Ive had almost every juice. The ham and cheese things are great too! Really good. Fast service. Love the vibes and the old boat out front. Ask them about it! Highly recommend! read more

We have been grabbing coffee here for the last couple days and have to say that I am a fan of Cuban coffee. If you decide to have sugar it can be a bit sweet for me, but just the coffee and milk combo is great. They have a variety of good options for lunch and some pastries for the morning. Pork, dirty rice, and plantain lunch was good. read more
