Bella Cuba Restaurant

We had a wonderful experience at Bella Cuba. The service was attentive, friendly, and efficient; the food was delicious. The room is appealing and it is possible to have a dinner in which every person at the table (we were three) can hear each other speak clearly. Bella Cuba is superbly located—minutes by foot from the Lincoln Road pedestrian center, the Miami convention hall, and the New World Center, home to the New World Symphony. We had a terrific dinner and will happily return for more of those dinners!

This is a great place to get authentic Cuban dishes. The Oxtail is signature dish served with black bean rice and plantains was amazing. The Mojitos are excellent and finish your meal with Cuban Coffee. Very economical for Miami Beach.

Wonderful family run restaurant. Very friendly and knowledgeable service. The food is honest and tasted very fresh. I’m so glad we came here on our last night in town. Worth a walk away from the strip. You’ll know you’re in the right place because all the locals eat here. My husband got the wrap with steak. I got the oxtail stew. Both were fabulous.

One of the best meals I‘ve had! Highly recommend. Lovely atmosphere and the staff are really friendly and gave great recommendations.

SCAM! Older women waitress did not print the breakdown of the check on purpose and asked me to fill out the slip to tip . When I asked for the breakdown I quickly learned it already included 18% service fee…. very dishonest practice , it is ok to tip above and beyond the 18% if someone wants to but not in this shady way. Disgusting low level stuff. The food was OK, the restrooms were gross like a greyhound bus station, luckily I went in there after diner not before… avoid this place there’s a lot of great Cuban restaurants here don’t support a place that uses deceptive practice against their customers

We ordered a salad, some empanadas and also a drunk chicken. Everything was very good, excellent att, my boyfriend said I could eat all night empanadas how good it was. The salad with guava, tasted good and the fish very well parked, the truth is that we loved it and hope to come back soon

Really delicious paella for two. Our server was very nice and helpful. Good value for excellent food.

Food was delicious and for the area, very affordable. The flavors were incredible and the ingredients were fresh. I was served quickly.

Best Cuban food in South Beach hands down. Get the ox tail and paella

If you come to south beach and don’t eat at Bella Cuba, you are missing out. Had lunch here yesterday and had to come back for dinner tonight. Incredible doesn’t begin to describe it. We had the ceviche and empanadas to start and the ox tail and paella as entrees. The only thing I didn’t like was that I’m staying in a hotel so I couldn’t take our leftovers. I will never visit Miami without coming here

Outstanding restaurant. Amazing food, exceptional service. It’s not too big, but big enough. Flavors are rich, balanced and full of character. It’s really worthy to come and try!
