    CUBAN SANDWICH
 $7.99
    Rick V.

    First time here. In on a Wednesday at 5:30. Very nice inside. Not busy. FREE WI FI ORDERED: Romo's Churrasco med. rare. with rice and beans $21 Perfectly cooked, good flavor, tender but very small. Next time I will offer to pay more for more meat. Plantains $2.99 for 3 small pieces. TO GO: Cuban sandwich $7.99 OK for the price. Flan $3.99 Small but good for the price. Service was OK but she never came back to see if everything was OK. Had to ask for more water. I will give them another try.

    Great place for a quick crew meal in between flights. Our to-go order was no problem and was made fast. Would order from there again.

    Super cool hole-in-the-wall mom and pop Cafe that is aviation themed with a big fuselage outside that houses the grill. Located right next Opa Locka Airport, there is a lot of traffic from airport employees and pilots that visit Romos. It is a Cuban style restaurant but has other things to offer on the menu like pasta. The prices are so reasonable I was questioning my lunches everywhere else. Not if only this restaurant would move up to Fort Lauderdale. The staff is a bit scatter brained. We had a table of 5 and we ordered quite a bit and she didn't write down any of the orders. She forgot two side orders. The food came out quickly. Rhe complimentary bread they give you at the table is soft, garlicky and buttery. It is addicting. I could eat the whole tray if I'm not careful. Man...for $4 the medianoche sandwich was huge! Definitely better than fast food. It was so good!! Nice buttered bread with ham and cheese inside with lots of pickles. My cortadito was only $1 and it was rich and flavorful. I was so content with the food. Willing to give the service another shot for the delicious menu options.

    Food is normally alright but this time they gave me green onions on my yuca???? Killed my appetite can't even eat

    The food was great! Flan was bomb. Great hosts - veal was top notch. Everyone should try this place at least once.

    I decided to take the family to try it out for breakfast. I think I will stick to trying it out next time for lunch and trying out the skirt steak as everyone has mentioned. The breakfast wasn't that GREAT nothing popped out of the ordinary with their omelettes nor the egg, cheese and ham croissant. The fish croquetas were super basic and the service took FOR EVER even though it wasn't busy. I'm not sure who's pouring the mariquitas in the baskets but you're being super skimpy about it! We ended up having to order two orders because it was just a handful someone picked and threw in the basket I will say the cilantro sauce was really good though. I'm kinda disappointed that the place didn't meet up to my expectation. (At least for breakfast) I will try it out again during lunch another day. I will give it to our waitress for remembering all our orders with the details and not writing any of it down. I will mention a fun fact is that their BBQ is inside the airplane cock pit.

I stopped by after the lunch rush to have a hialeah heat sandwich was the perfect version of typical cuban sandwich with a kick. I loved the touch of spicy in my sandwich. I also had a cafe bom bom that was really good. Loved the condensed milk. The girl who served me was very attentive to me when I visited and helped me with any questions i had; made me feel very welcomed. When i couldn't finish my coffee she packed it up for me in a to go cup.

Was meeting with some friends for an early lunch last week and I suggested this restaurant. The inside is not that big and parking is terrible, but I figured the food would make up for it. Very few tables inside but it was clean and has a counter area where the customer can sit or can sit and wait for their to go order. Not sure what has happened during the past two years but the food wasn't that great this time around. We shared the simple egg sandwich with bacon, and ordered a cafe con leche, the croqueta sampler and some islas canarias croquetas. The simple egg sandwich was unflavorful. The croqueta sampler and islas canarias croquetas were my favorite. Sadly, the cafe con leche didn't even taste like cafe con leche. Our waitress seemed overwhelmed although it was just our table and two more tables she was serving. There was a total of maybe 8 customers. We had to keep asking her for more water and napkins.

We saw La Romanita next door and went to grab a bite since the food trucks weren't open yet. We sat outside because the weather was nice and they have fans to keep the air flowing nicely.

Food was good, and we both had food left over. All in all, for a quick, impromptu lunch post workout this was great. I'll definitely plan to go again if I'm in the area around lunch time again.

When I first walked in, I was greeted by one of the servers. She spoke to me in Spanish and based on my response to her question, quickly switched to English. She sat me at a two-top. At first glance of the restaurant, it was decent size. They were doing construction around the entrance where the bar was, so it kind of took away from the appeal. While I've never commented on this before, I noticed my water and wine glass were so streaky. They weren't see through like usual but def. could have been cleaned/rinsed more. After being sat, I was given water and some focaccia crackers. While I loved the idea, the crackers were impossible to "dip" and made the oil pointless. For drinks, I went with the passionfruit margarita. They had a few cocktails to choose from, but this has been my go-to as of late. It was pretty good but nothing to write home about. As a starter, I went with the Cuban Caesar and for my main, I chose the pesto pasta and added chicken. The Cuban Caesar was easily one of the best I've had! I loved that it came in a Parmesan bowl and the yuca croutons were different but good! The croutons were a weird contrast because the salad was so cold and then you have these hot pillowy croutons with a weird texture. Regardless, I give the salad a 10/10. The pesto pasta was great; super rich but unfortunately, not much else. The chicken didn't have any seasoning and I almost wish I hadn't paid an additional $6 for it. The service was great and although they weren't that busy, I still believe it would have have still been good. Overall, I had a great time here and I may come back next time I'm in town.

    My girlfriend and I were craving BBQ and looked on yelp for the closest place to us and found this…read morelowkey spot owned by Larry, and overall it was amazing, comforting experience that really hit the spot. Something about seeing a smoker in someone's front-yard, you immediately know the food is about to be mind-blowing. I ordered the rib dinner plate, which comes with two sides, and we went with mac and cheese, baked beans, plus an extra side of seafood rice. Right off the bat, the whole plate was the highlight. They ribs were tender enough to pull apart easily, with a nice smoky flavor that didn't overpower the meat. The seasoning was well-balanced, savory with just a hint of sweetness, and the sauce complemented it without drowning it. You can tell they take their time with the cooking process. The mac and cheese was rich and creamy, definitely on the heavier side in a good way. It had that homemade feel, with a cheesy flavor that stuck with every bite. It paired really well with the ribs, especially if you like that classic BBQ comfort combo. The baked beans were another standout. They had a deep, slightly sweet and smoky flavor, and you could tell they weren't just poured out of a can. There were bits mixed in that gave it extra texture and flavor, making it more than just a basic side. The seafood rice was a bit different from your typical BBQ sides, but it worked so well. It had a nice seasoned flavor, with seafood mixed throughout that added a unique twist to the meal. It wasn't overpowering, but it definitely stood out compared to the more traditional sides. Overall, Larry's place delivers on what you want from a BBQ spot. Good portions, bold flavors, and that homemade touch. It's the kind of place you go when you're craving something filling and satisfying. Definitely worth coming back to, especially for those ribs!!
