    Great place with great ambiance!! Food was tasty , my drink was good . Nice place to visit

    Grace L.

    I ordered the Lomojo Congrí and it did not disappoint. A classic Peruvian lomo saltado served over crispy potatoes, topped with a perfectly runny fried egg, sweet plantains, sautéed onions, and a rich, savory gravy. It also came with a side of their house congri, which tied everything together beautifully. Every bite was bold, comforting, and packed with flavor. Service was excellent--the waitress was attentive, guided us through the menu with great recommendations, and made the experience genuinely enjoyable. The ambiance is stunning. Think crystal chandeliers, modern touches, and an upscale yet welcoming vibe that makes it feel special without being stuffy. At $26, the value was absolutely fair for the quality and presentation. This is a must-try spot in Miami. Between the food, the service, and the atmosphere, Yuca105 nails it.

    Miami vice Week!
    Jordan B.

    We stumbled upon YUCA while staying in South Beach and were pleasantly surprised! The menu looked great, the prices were fair, and when we arrived they happened to be hosting a special event for the 41st anniversary of Miami Vice. There was a private room for that group, which added a fun energy without really interfering with our dinner. The food was excellent. I ordered the ropa vieja, which was flavorful and tender, while my husband had the roasted Cuban-style pork, topped with a wonderful combination of cilantro and white sauces -- he loved it. I also tried a spicy guava margarita, which was amazing and perfectly balanced. The meal began with complimentary yuca chips, which was a nice touch. The only hiccup was that our waitress got a little distracted with the large event toward the end, so it took longer than expected to get the check. But overall, it wasn't a big deal given how much we enjoyed everything else. Delicious food, lively atmosphere, and a very memorable night -- we'd definitely come back!

    New dinner and a show. Every Wednesday they have now a cabaret show. Amazing entertainment and delicious food like ceviche and fusion cuban dishes.

    Strawberry mojito

    Stopped by for dinner and ordered the lomo saltado sushi which tasted like lomo saltado in August form. Only thing that was missing were the fries. Flavor was spot on. Also ordered a strawberry margarita with lots of mint. I also tried a different sushi with avocado which was delicious as well. If you're in Miami and looking for Cuban and Peruvian fusion this is the spot.

    Guava Pisco Sour
    Justin S.

    Awesome place to get some tasty small plates and incredible drinks in the heart of Miami Beach. The Huancaína Trufada and the Yuca Ceviche were bursting with flavor and had us licking the sauce from the plate after we finished them. I will be lusting over those dishes for quite some time. Washing it all down with a Pisco Sour and Mojito really hit the spot as well. Both come in all sorts of delicious flavors, including guava which is the flavor we chose to roll with. The Mojito was good but the Pisco Sour really stole the show in the drink department given how flavorful and refreshing it was on a hot day. Definitely the best Pisco Sour I've had. I would skip the Jalea Mixta, it looks good in the menu description but it's essentially just assorted fish calamari. I would look for a different entree, or just skip entrees all together here and go with the small plates. Their small plates are unique and hard to find elsewhere. The service is also very friendly and helpful with the menu, which is certainly intimidating if you're not used to this type of food. Highly recommended!

    1st night packed house, a good time had by all

    We celebrated an event with two VIP dinners here last week. The Ceviche is truly a delight! As were our main courses, desserts and the obligatory mojitos! This place has character, and the banquet room with bar gave a grand surrounding fit for the occasion. Service was reasonably prompt despite the large crowd. Our event producer made a fine choice with this establishment.

    Chaufa  especial
    Mirian G.

    We spotted Yuca105 while driving to our hotel and immediately decided we were going to have dinner here. We didn't have reservations but were seated promptly and hostess and servers were attentive and friendly. Marco our server was phenomenal. He made my mother feel like the Queen she is. The manager also checked in on us which was super nice as he recommended a maracuyá cheese cake that was out of this world delicious. For our appetizer we shared the traditional croquetas de abuela and the traditional ceviche with mixed seafood. The ceviche had us mmm-ing because it was limey, flavorful and each bite was better and better. For the main course we shared the chaufa especial and my sister said it was in her top 3 of best chaufas. Overall loved the atmosphere and service.

    Sushi
    Sohan G.

    Went here last time and ordered the same Ox tail. This time is was not as good as the first time. It was less tasty but still really good (4/5) The sushi was really yummy, cool take of peruvian sushi (5/5) Nutella old fashioned was not great (3/5)

    I came here with my family on a Sunday evening right when the place opened and got a table outside. We were greeted by very friendly waiters who took our drink order to start. We ordered virgin pina coladas and mojitos and loved how refreshing the drinks were! In addition to drinks, we had 2 orders of lomojo congri and the tacu tacu meri meri macho, and the yuca 105 signature sushi. Unfortunately even though we informed them of an allergy, they brought out the sushi that had the allergen in it. Overall the food was so so, and extremely overpriced. I'm not sure I'd visit here again - there's much more moderately priced and better tasting Cuban/peruvian food on south beach! I did give an extra point for kind servers and a clean bathroom!

    Inca Kola!
    Ruth D.

    Highly recommend! So delicious! Nice atmosphere! I'd been at a conference and made some new acquaintances, and we all needed a light meal at the end of the day. I love seafood (I work in ocean conservation and seafood policy, so yeah, give me that delicious sustainably-sourced and nutritious seafood!!!) so a new Miami Beach resident recommended we go to Yuca 105. We were seated immediately and ordered Inca Kolas, which has a wonderful cream soda flavor and a bright yellow coloring. Then my table ordered several appetizers and similar to share. When the food arrived, I was in heaven. We had citrusy ceviche, guava doused salmon with avocado, delicious tuna tartar, and the first octopus dish I've ever liked: roasted octopus maki. It was all amazing, perfect for sharing, and I hope work sends me back to Miami Beach just so I can eat here again! And for three people who split their order three ways at a nice enough restaurant, it was under $40 for each of us including with the addition of a decent tip for the great staff!

    Jalea

    Eh 5/10 Food wasn't the best. Jalea was a 8/10 kinda on the burnt side Churrasco was a waste of money -2/10 Service was OK

    Spicy (not spicy) mango margarita... I wouldn't recommend it.. not great
    Renee U.

    Pros: love the ambience and the food, yumminess!! We had the ceviche traditional and the crispy fish ceviche and lomo sushi roll.. and spicy mango margarita (good but not great or spicy) Note: automatic tip is included, my spouse didn't look at bill closely and doubled tipped.. So for visitors.. look at your bill

They have such cute drinks! I just got pineapple juice but my friends got their coconut drink and mojito and said it was to die for! They give you these plantain chips to snack on and they are so good! It's got a sweet, salty, and crunchy chip texture to it. For an appetizer, we got a sampler which had ropa vieja, plantains, empanadas, shredded pork, and some large fried potatoes. I loved that so you get to try a little bit of everything. The ropa vieja tasted just like grandmas. They use ropa vieja as the filling in the empanadas. The fried potato's was steak fry cut style. It was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Just how a perfect fry should taste! Everyone really liked the vaca frita! I think that's a must try! It's shredded beef marinated in this delicious citrus marinate. They fry it afterwards so it's pull apart, melt in your mount soft, with a nice crispy crunch to it. I think this is a must get dish. The desserts were delicious too! The flan was perfectly soft and creamy. The tres leches was delicious as well. This is a great place to have some good Cuban and enjoy a beautiful night out in Miami!

For a Friday evening, the restaurant wasn't particularly busy, but the ambiance was actually great. The music definitely added to the experience, especially some good Marc Anthony tunes in Spanish that I really enjoyed! The atmosphere was lively and gave us that Latin vibe we were hoping for. Our server, Diego, was incredibly attentive and really went above and beyond. At times it almost felt like he was trying too hard to make sure we were happy, but honestly, we appreciated the effort! We started with the empanadas and the avocado salad with chicken. The chicken on the salad was disappointing. It had the texture and appearance of previously frozen/reheated chicken rather than the freshly grilled chicken we were expecting. For our entrées, we tried both the steak and a chicken dish. Unfortunately, neither worked for us. Both lacked the flavor we were expecting and instead seemed to rely heavily on salt. We ended up not finishing either dish. The cocktails didn't save the evening either. I started with a lychee martini, which wasn't as good as I had hoped, followed by a Mai Tai that also could have been better. I also saw my drink being taste-tested twice at the bar before it was brought over, which admittedly left me a little unsure about drinking it afterward. And then... THE FLAN! Finally, something I can rave about. They make a VERY good flan, and it was easily the highlight of our dinner. That's all I'll say! :) Overall, the ambiance was great, the music was fun, Diego worked hard to make sure we were taken care of, and the flan was excellent. Unfortunately, when it came to the actual entrées and cocktails, the experience just didn't deliver for us. There are too many Cuban restaurants around to explore, so we'll be trying others rather than returning to this one.

I recently tried their iced Cuban coffee with sugar and milk, and it was such a delicious addition. The passion fruit juice is also fantastic. I finally tried the grilled lobster plate, and WOW, it did not disappoint. Honestly, you might need to walk around the block a few times afterward because everything is just THAT good, and you're going to finish every last bite. Puerto Sagua has been serving Miami Beach since 1968, and it is still standing strong, serving incredible Cuban food with so much character and history. Great service and love the open restaurant ambiance diner feel. If you're visiting Miami Beach, DO NOT skip this place. Come hungry and get a taste of this iconic Cuban American restaurant. And whatever you do, GET THE OXTAIL STEW!

It wasn't until I got the final print out that I discovered that the restaurant had already added a 20 gratuity. Since I had issues with my server, and the surprise automatic gratuity was not helping matters i asked for the manger. Told him about my experience and said there was NO the server earned and 50% tip. He refunded me the extra I put on as an added gratuity, but that was it. The food was good, but was so very salty I couldn't eat the entire entree (pork, rice, beans). The beans were good. The rice good. The prok goo to a point. Oh, they have also changed their name. With all the restaurants on the strip, try some where else. The service here is a problem and the salt ia enough to clog an artery.

Basically all seating is outside, so if you're looking to escape the heat, probably not the best fit. Nice vibes outside but just something to be aware of! One of the chair legs literally broke underneath one of our party when she was just trying to scoot it back. We got given a new chair from the empty table next to us and moved on with the night. I really don't like how, when you order a sandwich, they ask "do you want fries with that?" So that you assume it it'll be free (as is very normal with sandwiches) when it's actually asking if you want to add an additional $10 side. Food wasn't bad, but not great. I think the empanada was my favorite, I loved the cilantro sauce with it (I just love cilantro!). Another in our party had the lobster and thought it was pretty good. But, the meat on all the sliders felt pretty dry and not that flavorful. I wished they had more sauce with or on them, which I would rather the meat itself was good enough I didn't want to cover it in sauce to make it good. I was so excited for flan, which I love, but I felt the texture was softer and more like pudding in my mouth than the firm custard texture I want. Also overall really expensive but I guess it's an expensive area? There were 6 of us with over $500 total and that felt like a lot.
