“The best smoked turkey BLT and Mac-n-cheese I’ve ever had. Simply amazing“

“10/10 recommend! We had the loaded cheese fries with brisket and the tomahawk steak! we are big steak people and we are from Texas and he got our full approval Texas style 😎 🌟“

“It was our first time dining at this restaurant, and I have to say we were extremely pleased. My wife and I started with an appetizer (the tostones) and it proved to be a great choice! The waitress (also the owner) was super friendly, great attitude, and explained the menu for us first timers. The food and experience was taste buds satisfying delicious! We will be back, and I’m looking forward to trying their Ruben! Highly recommend.“

“Did not disappoint at all. Their Brisket was really good. Highly recommended it. Got the sampler and there was 6 of us and it was plenty. Maybe add another side but still plenty to go around. Love the rice and the beans, the ribs, the chicken wings. Fried cheese was great. Highly recommended.“

“I attended an association meeting there and we were in one of the private meeting rooms. Very accommodating and gave us the quiet we needed for the presentation. Our server Priscilla was very friendly and attentive to our needs. I would encourage any organization, group or family gathering that wanted a private setting check out Famous Dave's“

“I had an incredible experience at Rancho Criollo. The flavors were absolutely mouthwatering, and the meat was tender and perfectly seasoned. The variety of Latin-inspired dishes on the menu was just perfect, and the friendly staff made the whole experience even better . I highly recommend trying their delicious cachapas and grilled meats. This food truck is a must-visit for any food lover!!“

“Had some ribs and chicken last night. nice and tender with good service!! check 'em out!!“

“I was nearby last night and googled a place to get a good burger and I drove down to an area. I’ve never been and found this quaint little area with food trucks and the burger and milkshake here was divine. There’s a nice outside patio bar five or six food trucks that serve different food. I would definitely go back.!“

“In 2024, I participated in the Key2MIA tour, which took place around Juneteenth. One of the stops on the tour was “Meat the Veggies,” where I had the chance to try their food for the first time. I was blown away by their impressive presentation, beautifully set-up tent, and food truck. I was genuinely excited to try whatever they were offering, and thank goodness I did—it was absolutely delicious! Their mango chipotle sauce quickly became my favorite, and I even tagged and persistently reached out to them for months just to get more of it. I also tried their pulled oxtail meat, which was a solid 10/10. It’s a must-try, and I highly recommend it. I truly love this brand!“

“Wow!!! I thought I have had some of the best BBQ around the country. Kansas City, Texas. This place blew them out of the water. Everything was exceptional. Ribs Brisket Sides. The atmosphere super cool. The service out of Miami. HAhaha!!!Tatiana was exceptional and Diana Isabel mgr. everybody made us feel like family. Congrats Jeff!! Good job. And the cafecito. Vaya De Pipi!!!“

“The best BBQ!!. Had a gathering of friends and family and ordered the sampler and additional ribs. The gathering and good conversation soon took a turn to the ribs and brisket, and then the BBQ took a life of its own ,and all conversation. arguments, agreements, disagreements were soon forgotten to be replaced by this great, flavorful BBQ dinner. Cant say enough about Harvey's menu an touch and Natalie's attention to detail. Look forward to a 4th of July BBQ Harvey's style.“

“The best attention the best food is delighted with your juice thanks Tamara for your excellent service [Original] La mejor atención la mejor comida quede encantada con su jugo Gracias Tamara por tu excelente servicio“

“Excellent food! Their candied bacon and mac and cheese are both fantastic! Friendly service, great people!“

“Came for the 5-star reviews, stayed for the yum. This food truck punches above its weight — more like a neighborhood restaurant on wheels with plenty of charm.
For the uninitiated, this is Venezuelan comfort food done right. The sancocho is slow-simmered, deeply comforting, the kind of stew you don’t rush. The cachapas, sweet ground-corn pancakes folded over warm, melty cheese, finished with crème fraîche, rich, and memorable. My wife went with BBQ steak — tender, well-seasoned, and exactly what you want from a team that knows its grill. And yes, the arepas are non-negotiable. It’s hard not to root for Christian, the owner. You feel his enterprising spirit in the food, the hospitality. How soon until he takes on an inside restaurant?“

“Excellent BBQ Ribs and Chicken. Mac & Cheese and Collard Greens sides are Amazing! Highly Recommended!!!!😀😀“

“Deliciosa comida y muy buena atención. El mejor pollo...Que delicia todo. Se lo recomiendo en Kendall“

“Great BBQ, and best value in Miami. Fifty bucks will get you dinner for two, with another lunch and dinner left over for you or the kids. Plus, you're there and on your way home in mere minutes. While he bags it all up, Moe entertains with lightning-quick commentary on bad Miami drivers and other local lunatics. A++.“

“We had the barbecue chicken and fries and pulled pork it was very good and we enjoyed our server Phil who made us laugh a lot would really recommend coming back it’s a great place“

“My friend loves this place. He swears by their pork souse. The only problem is they never have any. So we settle for BBQ ribs with honey mustard sauce for less than $20, which is pretty good. The service could be better if there was some inside service but ordering and pickup are done from the outside at a window. Which must work for them because this establishment has been in business for years.“

“fresh and good tast all the time.“

“The food was excellent the ribs was tender the was delicious and I can’t say anything bad about the cashier because she was very helpful friendly funny and she made us feel welcomed very efficient and always smiling no matter what day I come“

“I went the other day. I haven’t been in years. They thee best ribs and chicken that I’ve ever had. They are not stingy on the sauce either. Only down side is they don’t sale too many options. But that ribs and chicken fdidn’t disappoint.“

“Ottimo cibo e cordialità, titolare top!!!“

“Ty n my no not na to hb t“

“I’m 70 and I hold to the notion that any restaurant older than me has got to be good, and Shorty’s has been in business since 1951. You do the math.

I had the Brisket/BBQ Chicken dinner and Mrs. K. had the Pulled Pork dinner, both absolutely delicious, reasonably priced, washed down with icy mugs of beer, and served by our waitress Cookie with skill, charm, and true Southern Hospitality.

Great food, great service and great prices is what makes Shorty’s a great place for BBQ. Get some!“

“Great food mostly take out !!!!“

“Delicious Very cozy place“

“The legendary Churchill's! Played there for years until recently. Hopefully it re-opens completely soon!!! An iconic place in Miami.“

“extraordinario servicio....excelente....“

“Muy rico todo muchas gracias“

“Stumbled upon this place walking for a different food spot and decided to eat here instead, and I’m very pleased that I made the choice. It has been difficult to find restaurants that know how to actually cook in Miami so I was very pleased today and will be coming back here to explore the different drinks that they have on their menu. I ordered this blue cocktail and it was a perfect combination is sweet and subtle flavor of wine.

They have these cool milkshake looking drinks, but I did not try them yet and plan to one day. Had the stuffed tostones for appetizers and they were by far my favorite ones I’ve tried. Then I ordered the Venezuela bowl and it was a lot of food and all the flavors just came together very well. Love the atmosphere of the place, definitely coming back here again! Also many gluten-free options to enjoy!“

“This is a Great place for music“

“This place is incredible! They take classic American BBQ and prepare it so well, it can compete in grillmasters challenges...and win! Awesome staff, delicious food. Make it a purpose to stop in if you're ever in the Miami area.“

“Miss Dominique was our waitress on saturday December 9th around 1something in the afternoon mey sister and niece went to have lunch and Miss Dominique was very pleasant, kind, nice and our food and drinks came out on time everything was great. Miss Dominique went above and beyond her great customer service, she is a great asset to your company 😀“

“Muy buena comida y un excelente servicio. Gracias Valery por atendernos tan bien 😊“

“great grilled chicken… best grilled chicken around“

“Great food truck. I love their bbq because it's not doused in bbq sauce. The meats all hold up on their own and are delicious. I love the tacos and loaded fries. I go here probably more than I should but it's soo good and well priced.“
