The food was very good but not great. Three of us shared 3 different dishes. We all agree the food was very good not great. BYOB. They sometimes have live music. A little pricey but I would go again.

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessable but I don't know if bathroom is wheelchair accessable.

I was looking for Sopa De Pollo. While I was in Miami, I had this soup from a restaurant in Little Havana and I have been craving it ever since. I searched on Google and there it was! I had to order it, and it was a perfect match. The taste and the style of the soup were identical. I highly recommend it!

Haven't been here in years and everything is different, not the same food and the food I did get tasted off and bad (chef's board, chicken pailard, empanadas, fries) Brought a bottle of rum for a mojito; the mix (with rotten & mostly black mint, 3 rotten lime wedges & tasted like poison) was $15... on top of that, they charge a $10 corkage fee, even if it's not wine & they do nothing for you at all. End of an era. I was hearing bad things but wanted to check it out for myself because I used to love this place.

I'm Cuban myself. 90 miles does there Cuban food just how i grew up. Overall the flavors and the dinners are good. I would say the only thing is the wait time on the food does take a bit on the weekends but, it's because they're packed. I enjoy the food and the service is up to par the good vibes of the resturants and culture is what keeps me going back to 90 miles. My personal fave dish is Bistec De Palomilla Entree it has alot of good Cuban flavors. Overall 7.9 out 10!

We forgot it was BYOB but we won’t forget next time.

Regardless, a good time, great energy all around!

Cubano sandwich, fries, Maduros and empanadas, it’s a win

Food tasted good but was cold. As in it was made and sat around before coming out. Server was friendly and nice but absent. Waited awhile to order and when looking for her, no where to be found. Location is nice, Good people around and pet friendly as several people had dogs.

Everytime I pass this place their patio is packed so I decided to try it - I ordered a cubano and a beef empanada to go. I had high expectations because Google said this place had one of the top 10 cubanos in the country, and it was great! I'm no cubano expert,I really liked it but it could have used more pickle or something acidic. The empanada was excellent. But the fries that came with the sandwich were BOMB. I'm not a fry person, I never eat more than a couple, especially if they have no dipping sauce, but these were something else. Whatever spice is on them is addicting, they were even great cold the next day. Next time I'll dine in to make use of their BYOB policy.

BYOB, just getting that out of the way, they offer mixers! The mojitos are great!, everything we had was great. There were 8 of us so we each ordered something different and just had a fantastic time, after the walk to the liquor store, 2blocks East one block south. The service was great, very attentive! Again everything was delicious! Totally worth it! Go! You won’t regret it!

I feel morally obligated to share my first and what will also be my last experience at 90 Miles Cuban Cafe.

I must unfortunately echo what others have said about their being an overall blandness or absence of seasoning.

Even if I were to provide grace in this area, what cannot be overlooked is the terrible service and dining experience we had. There also seems to be an underlying current of prejudice and overall lack of concern and omission of professionalism and customer service.

My party was seated for 20 minutes before we were even approached by our server. For the record, It was NOT busy.

We eventually placed our order for two entrees, coffee, a green machine juice and one appetizer. We observed that patrons whom arrived after us were served before us.

This was even more apparent when the server provided them with 2/3 of our order, serving them the coffee and the exact appetizer we ordered 20 minutes prior and then served us the green machine juice. This was one of two drinks we ordered, the second being the coffee.

Just under half an hour or so later, both of our entrees and the appetizer that was supposed to be served prior to the entrees, was then served to us all at once. The coffee was eventually served much later as an afterthought.

I bought this to the manager’s attention when settling the bill. The manager stated the GM would not be available until the following Monday, but that I would be contacted- I have not.

We ultimately had to pack our food as there was essentially no space on the table to enjoy it and the bees started to swarm around the abundance of dishes that were served all at once.

I will state this particular observation once more before I end this review: there is definitely an undercurrent of prejudice and “selective” urgency toward certain patrons and not others. Proceed with precaution and be prepared to be potentially disappointed.
