About Casa Cuba

Casa Cuba is a lively restaurant with a friendly atmosphere, often featuring live music on Saturdays. Located in the heart of South Miami’s sophisticated restaurant hub and downtown, it offers a down-home welcoming Cuban environment. The menu features a variety of delicious Cuban-inspired dishes, including chicken Caesar and vaca frita. Customers praise the top-notch croquetas, pastelitos, and empanadas, whether made on site or from a bakery. The pastelitos, especially the guava and cheese, are crispy, golden, and flakey on the outside, with soft, warm insides. The meat pastelito is perfectly seasoned, juicy, and not dry, showing it’s not frozen. Many find the food flavorful and enjoyable, with some wishing for more taste. The service is generally fast and attentive, with staff like Yami and Dani receiving high praise for their warmth and friendliness, making guests feel like family. Parking can be a challenge due to a small lot and crowded curb parking, but valet service is available. The restaurant creates a welcoming environment, perfect for celebrating special occasions, like a 100th birthday, or simply enjoying Cuban music and good vibes. The patio is ideal in the evening when it’s breezy, and weekends feature live salsa music, enhancing the Cuban vibe. Casa Cuba offers traditional local food, charming staff, and a homy energy that delivers a true Miami Latin experience.
