El Cristo Restaurant is a highly recommended place with delicious Cuban food and a super nice atmosphere. The friendly staff, especially Lazaro, provides great service and makes helpful recommendations. The Cuban trio with chicken, pork, and shrimp is a must-try dish, along with fried yuca and tostones. The restaurant is clean and welcoming, perfect for trying authentic Cuban gastronomy. It has a cozy, quiet atmosphere that transports guests to Cuba, with music, colors, and heartwarming mojitos. The food is often described as delicious and well-seasoned, with dishes like the "El cristo Cuban sandwich" and Cuban Palomillas being highly praised. The staff is friendly and attentive, and the place has good air conditioning. Although some reviews mention high prices and salty food, the overall experience is positive, offering a taste of Cuba in Miami.
