Best place for a frita in Miami hands down. Great prices. Parking is very limited but worth it.

This is the best Cuban burger I have ever had. My kids loved it too! The flan is also excellent. The best part was the service. Our server was amazing!! Wished we had fritas in Montreal!!

The frita a caballo I had here was one of the best sandwiches I have ever tried in my life. The amount of flavor they were able to achieve was incredible! I had the pleasure of meeting the owners and they took the time to explain everything to me and provided me great, reccomendations, This is a must visit for anyone who likes sandwiches!

Wanted it to be better than Rey De Las Fritas but just not even close. First off there is no parking so don't even try to come in a car. Then you will find that the frita is 50% more expensive and half the amount of meat as Rey De Las Fritas. You barely taste the frita meat because there is nearly none in the sandwich. This place needs to go back to its roots and provide a traditional frita that can be tasted and not just a bunch of bread and potato. It was tasty but just too much wrong.

Outstanding and classic Cuban diner with great sandwiches and the nicest people. Definitely a do not miss in Little Havana to get the authentic Miami Cuban experience.

Having tried Cuban Hamburgers in the past, I wasn't a big fan of them. Working in the area & lots of great things being said, including recognition from SoFlo Wine & Food Fest. I found parking in the 2 space parking lot in the front. Was greeted by a friendly & efficient staff that provided great service. The ambiance was slightly different than I expected with a downplay in its Cuban roots, No Latin music playing, English pop. Only quaint display of Cuban culture, but the star of the show was the Burger, and meeting the Rey himself

I would 10/10 go back to Miami just to eat here. The fritas were really good and the sauces were out of this world. Highly recommend this place!!
