Yet another tromp through the Miami airport. I'm not kidding when I say I've been through this…read moreairport at least 60 times, maybe more. Lunch time and yo tengo hambre. The chicken soup took a chill off the air conditioning. Great flavor, lots of chunky chicken, just the right amount of heat and saltiness. Now I need to learn how to make a homemade version of this. The booths in the back give the perfect place to relax for a bit on a layover and they don't seem to rush anyone out.

The empanada did not have the greatest appearance, but it tasted decent for the most part. I could not acquire a taste for the chopped olives that were mixed in with the chicken. This was a quick, affordable snack that held me over after a long plane flight. #lacarreta #chickenempanada #miaminternationalairport

My wife and I ate here today. The service given to us by Zenia was top notch. However the food had…read morea caveat. My wife had the grill chicken, white rice with black beans. She said that it was very good. I had the chicken and rice, a traditional Cuban meal. The rice was very good but there was hardly no chicken in it. The meal was all rice. I stayed quiet because I never send food back. But the restaurant is very clean and the food that you do receive tastes very good.

It's a great place to grab a quick meal without feeling like you're sacrificing quality. Service is quick and efficient, and the staff is friendly and helpful.

If you're looking for good food that's affordable and served quickly, this place definitely hits the mark. I'll definitely be coming back.

Recently, we went for lunch, and it was terrific and we have been back several more times since. This is now one of my favorites. Portions are big, food is prepared well, and the service is spot on leaving nothing to be desired. The pancito they served us on our last visit for dinner was like none I've had before and delicious. I am looking forward to my next visit. I especially enjoy sitting at the counter where the service is lightning fast. This review is for the restaurant, not the bakery.

Its a very lively neighborhood bar amd if you are near the airport you should definitely give it a try!

I was told that when you're in Florida ESPECIALLY Miami you HAVE to get Cuban food. And wow... now…read moreI understand why. As we were driving in, the place already looked beautiful. We came in the evening and immediately, as we walked up, there was music, people laughing, talking, smiling... the energy was incredible. I also loved that there was a bar off to the side while waiting. We ordered a few mojitos and sat outside at the tables and benches, just enjoying the atmosphere. When our name was finally called and we walked inside, I genuinely felt like I was stepping into history. The atmosphere here is unmatched. The music, the aromas, the people. God, I loved it here and I hadn't even tried the food yet. We ordered the braised oxtail (which came with plantains and rice), salmon glazed in guava BBQ sauce, ceviche tropical, assorted empanadas, and a Cuban sandwich. Everything was phenomenal. The sauce paired with the empanadas perfectly. The guava BBQ glaze on the salmon was absolute perfection. It was the perfect combo of sweet, smoky, and flavorful. The ceviche had the perfect acidity and tasted so fresh and refreshing. This is one of the most famous Cuban restaurants in Miami. It completely lives up to the reputation. Highly recommended

DIRT AND MUD IN THE SALAD!!! WATCH OUT…read more We ordered the salad with mango and pecans. They do not wash there lettuce. There was literally dirt/mud at the bottom and I took my first bite and it felt like biting into sand. Upon spitting the food out onto my plate it was black sludge. Literally my tongue and teeth were black. The waiter came by and grabbed the plate when I was in the bathroom. I spent about 10 minutes trying to get that BLACK SLUDGE out of my mouth. When I was spitting out the dirt/mud wife noticed the bus boys laughing at me and there was not a manger in sight. When I asked for a manager he did not even respond. No apology or anything just a look of confusion. Worst experience in a restaurant in my life and I love to eat and have been to many types of restaurant big and small. Cheap and expensive and this one takes the cake. We were so bummed as I see thousands of great reviews. But if there was a zero I would have given zero stars the way they handled the situation. If you eat there in the future make sure to check for DIRT/MUD.

We had plans to get-together to meet my son's girlfriends' family who live in Estero. Since my son and his girlfriend live in Coral Gables, I suggested La Patagonia. Everybody loved it! I had the seafood pasta and a couple of glasses of Chardonnay. Everyone else had Malbec and ordered bottles, that were quite reasonably priced and they said it was really good. My son and his girlfriend shared the parrillada for 2, my daughter their famius steak milanesa. It is so large, i could split it into 4 meals. My son-in-law ordered the tiras de asado. He is a huge steak connoisseur. He was amazed at how delicious. Her mom and sister had assorted meat and saysage with a salad. The desserts were decadent and we finished it iff with Espresso.

This restaurant has several locations, but this one is worthing noting…read more There are a few really good Cuban restaurants left in Miami, and this one is one of them. Food -- The food portions can be "abuela" approved. All plates come with 2 sides, which are all very shareable. From dining in to ordering cantina to-go, the food never disappoints. It's always fresh, savory and hands-down delicious. Service -- From the cafecito at the ventanita to the dining in, the service is always friendly and courteous, as it should be. Ambiance -- It's located inside a dated strip mall that needs much refurbishing but the restaurant inside is clean and ample.

You can see the shine.
