This restaurant is a gem! I love Italian food and this is the real deal! Their pasta is made from scratch and delicious. The service is beyond wonderful! All the food is fresh. They only make what is going to be consumed for the day. The servers and owners are mother and son and they go the extra mile to make you feel special! I will definitely be back time and again!

I have not been to a better restaurant than this one and that’s saying a lot. I’m a huge foodie from CT and found the food in Florida lacked authenticity. This Italian food was the best I’ve ever had. Not only was my meal amazing, but all 3 other entrees my party had were phenomenal. What made this even better was the service. The mother and son that catered to us that evening were beyond accommodating. We mistakenly made a reservation at the downtown location but cleared off a table for us. The mother took time to share the specials and desserts (which she made herself). We could feel her passion and love through her desserts. I will be traveling from Orlando to Miami JUST for them. Thank you for a wonderful meal.

Our family of 4 enjoyed a wonderful meal at Red Carpet. Fresh Italian food that tastes of home cooking, this is definitely going to have repeat visits. We enjoyed everything we ate, and even ‘heavier’ dishes with cream-based sauces didn’t feel like lead in our stomachs! Service was wonderful and personal and especially love that this is a family-run business.

Versailles is one of my favorite restaurant ever. 10/10 always happy with the service and food. Everything is amazing. I come here probably 3-4x or more a week. I some time even come twice a day for breakfast & dinner. So delicious! I either do take out or eat at the restaurant. I just love this restaurant so much and every time I am there I feel like I am home. If you want true delicious, yummy and authentic Cuban food Versailles is where is at!

This place is amazing. Great Cuban food with so many choices. Great service and it was fast. Since this place is known for top Cuban food, there is always a line to get in. But since they work very efficiently, the wait is not too long and definitely worth any wait. Delicious quality food with reasonable prices. You are gonna want to order and sample every dish.

We are staying in Key Largo and this restaurant was recommended by a friend who used to live in Miami as a great place for authentic Cuban food. She was right! We went for lunch and ate outside. The service was friendly and quick. Our food portions were generous and delicious! I would go again and again to try different things. Their menu is extensive and very reasonably priced. All in all, a great experience!

We opted to dress up because it’s a great restaurant, but you should be calm. The cuisine is delicious, and you don’t want to miss out on it because your clothing are too small. I truly enjoy the flavor of the dish. I couldn’t seem to put a halt to my feasting. Thank you so much to the chef who prepares meals for us. You performed an excellent job!

Stopped in before a Marlins game and had a really enjoyable experience. The bar tender was knowledgeable about the drink options and was very friendly. Definitely worth a try if in Little Havana or before a ball game.

The thing I most enjoyed about this place was that the server was extremely well versed in all things beer, and he was making excellent suggestions based on my input. I had fun trying out new beers and catching up with friends.

I was just walking around and saw this place, liked the look, so me and my wife went in, and the food and service was, above expectations. The service was excellent and the portions are great. I highly recommend this restaurant. The live music was phenomenal, he made the dining experience that much better. Kudos to him.

Amazing food and even better service. Katy, our server, was so helpful in giving us recommendations as it was our first time. Absolutely everything we had was delicious and both my husband band and I left our plates completely empty.

Let me start by saying I have never written a review of any restaurant or business before during my 27 years of life on this planet. Went here on a Sunday afternoon with 4 friends to get a quick drink and bite to eat. Our experience started by trying to find a hostess or employee to seat us or put us on a waiting list. After searching for a few minutes we finally asked the bartender who told us to seat ourselves. We opted for the outside seating and proceeded to bus our own table because there was no one cleaning the 4 empty tables filled with leftover plates and cups from the previous parties. We took our seats and then waited for the waitress or waiter to come by our table. The waitress finally noticed us and came to take our drink orders. She was nice but quickly left the table without getting our orders when we tried to decide on an appetizer. Another 15 minute wait later saw her finally come back to the table to get our order. We placed an order for waters, sangria, sodas, and our lunch items. After another 20 minutes or waiting I got up and found cups and a water container to pour my table drinks. The waitress rarely checked on our table from this instance on, and did not bring us silverware or napkins till we got our food and drinks AN HOUR LATER; and only after we asked her. The food was good but the service was atrocious. Probably the worst I have ever personally experienced. About halfway through our time at this restaurant the crowd thinned out so there was no real excuse for the way we were served. We had to find our own ice and our own straws during our time there because they were never offered to us. The waitress and waiter working the outdoor area seemed to be fighting and did not try to hide it our put their issues aside to better serve their customers. I’m extremely disappointed in my experience here because I had heard several good things about them in the past. This experience was unacceptable and I would encourage anyone who is considering trying this establishment to take their business elsewhere. The one star rating is for the food alone. Nothing else about this place was remotely impressive. I would have been better served at the McDonald’s down the street. Avoid like the plague.

This is a new Cuban restaurant in Little Havana and the food was delicious. The fresh made lemonade on a hot day hit home. The Cuban Sandwich was very delicious and cut evenly with all the trimmings. The owner Jesus always welcomes his customers on a personal basis. Plenty of seating and plenty of parking on 27th Ave parking lot. A gem in Little Havana.

This place was ok. The quality of the food was at home quality presentation was great I give them that. My Wife and I both order 4 cheese spaghetti one with chicken one with shrimp. The shrimp was 6.. not enough so she got more. They’re prices are okay for business but not for me as a Food Spot Reporter.

Best fried malanga chips; next to my mom’s of course 😁. I love coming here because of the authentic traditional Cuban restaurant vibe that reminds me of the Cuban restaurants I grew up going to in New Jersey. The wait staff is genuinely friendly and will greet you with warm welcome with prompt service. The ambiance is quite relaxing with pleasurable instrumental classics playing in the background. The ambient chatter noise in the dining room was adequate which speaks to the clientele culture of good hard working families enjoying delicious Cuban cuisine. Excellent 👌 Food.

Can here for father’s day without a reservation. I’m so glad we chose this over Versailles. They were very accommodating to a larger group. The staff was fast and friendly. The prices were excellent. The quality of food was amazing. The best sangria I’ve ever had!

Great place! It’s not a sandwich and fry’s type place so plan on up scale dinning. Very clean neat and organized. Price points above average but expected with a higher service level than most.

Excellent place to eat, affordable for the amount of food you receive. The staff are very friendly (mostly spoke Spanish) But great food! Parking is tight but do able. They even have a walk up window. Don’t forget to try the deserts and espressos if you have room.

The best LASAGNA in MIAMI. I have been going to this restaurant for over 20 years and the food and service continues to be consistently good, with a large selection of wines specially MALBECS from Argentina. A place everyone must go to satisfy their inner palates.

I am not exaggerating when I say that I would take a bullet for whoever made me some of the most amazing food I have ever had in my 18 years of life. I am an EXTREME foodie and travel tons, and this little authentic corner restaurant has made me rethink every other Italian food that I’ve ever eaten. The staff was wonderful and always checking up on us, and it was overall a great experience. I actually love you all.

This place has a great hostess and the live band music was amazing! Bus boy was really attentive and helpful 10/10 which is the only reason I would even want to give this place a 1 star. Our waitress never gave us our coffee and never checked on our table. We were there for 1 hour and she NEVER came back to our table. The busboy had more interaction with our table than her. She came over AFTER we finished eating to ask if I wanted my coffee. Are you serious? Apparently tip is included on the bill which would explain why she didn’t care to help us. She was too busy talking to the hostess and the cute bartender to pay attention. I don’t understand what we did wrong. Is it because we are Asian? I have fluent English and we were polite the whole time. Either way I will never come back or ever recommend anyone here. This was the first restaurant we went to in Little Havana and I am extremely disappointed.

This place is amazing! From the authenticity of the food to the music! My family and I ate there tonight and it was a great decision. Their flavor is so vibrant and amazing in general. The server was kind enough to recommend a few things for us to try and she did not disappoint. Their dessert there is better than amazing. We will be returning very soon!

Amazing food, amazing atmosphere! Our first visit to this restaurant and bar and we were NOT disappointed! Everything we ate from apps to dessert was all delicious. The Cuban live band was topping to an already outstanding experience. We sat at the bar and the Bartenders were friendly and professional. Big thanks to Ernesto. Definitely recommend this restaurant and looking forward to eating here again very soon!

I’m Haitian American and they treated me very good.. my friend is African American and she also loved it. Overall our experience was great the male manager was very nice. I observe him taking the time out to put silverware’s inside of napkins as the staff started to get busy. The meal portion was excellent. We were the 3:35 crowd

My girlfriend and I visited Miami for a few days. We went to South Beach for dinner a few nights and spent a good amount of money in doing so. We stopped in to get lunch and was incredibly impressed. Best Cuban sandwich I’ve ever had. Impeccable service despite the language barrier. If we come back to Miami we are absolutely coming here again.

We enjoyed the place. Food was very nice. Service was also good and fast. We set outside and went for shrimps and fish. Nice cool Mexican beer. Lunch for 2 is $100 Espresso was surprisingly good, but with sugar (they didn’t ask about it) mojito was also too sweet (US specific). After the meal you can enjoy a freshly made cigar from the local cigar shop

The food, the ambiance, the service… It was like going to see family that misses you! They take CARE and put live into every part of the interaction. From a chilled glad of water to cool me down from the HOT day upon arrival to the delicious cuisine to the awesome vibes that permeate the place…I totally recommend this restaurant to ALL! Can’t come?? Order delivery.. Don’t miss out!! #yum!!!

The food was really good but the customer service was horrible. Didn’t check up on us if we needed anything, took long to serve the food, and forgot our drink so we had to repeat ourselves again. I didn’t want to leave a tip so when she over heard me say I wasnt going to leave a good tip she took the bill back and added their own tip. Do not recommend if you want to have a good time and feel welcomed.
