Little Cuban Cafe: Reviews & Ratings
First time in Miami, just got out of the airport and was looking for my first taste of Cuban cuisine and little Cuban cafe definitely hit the spot! I had the Cuban breakfast and it was sooooo authentic and delicious. I didn’t know such simple dishes like the omelette, Cuban toast, and Cuban coffee (cortadito) could be so tasty together. I even added a croquette and everything was only 13! The super nice waitress Laura was so hospitable to me and took her time to explain what everything on the menu was and always came by with a smile. What an amazing first meal in Miami, I will be coming back every time I fly into Fort Lauderdale airport!
We always enjoy coming here for the awesome food and the awesome staff! Jose always makes us feel like family. Today we rode with our biker friends to have lunch and everyone loved it! The steak sandwich is
so good we came back twice! from the croquettes de jamon, tamales, steak and eggs, tostada and my favorite, vaca frita. don’t rob yourself of the treat of a cortadito or mojito on your way out. thank you to all involved in running this traditional delicious cuban restaurant. i will be dreaming about the smell of the restaurant the moment you walk in for days to come.
this place was the perfect place to eat after flying, the people where really nice, the amount of food was big and the food was delicious. this place is perfect. And for the coffee lovers, the coffee is soo good! we will totally come back here if we ever get the chance!!!!
The food and service were excellent. We had the steak sandwich and chicken fricasse. We especially loved the yellow rice.
This place is little Cuban family cafe. You can feel the atmosphere right when you entered the restaurant. The servers spoked to each other in Spanish and there is loud music in the background. You can feel the vibes. I tried their vaca fritta, croquette, beef empanada, chicken fricasse, and chicken strips for the kids. The chicken strips is not from frozen, it’s homemade and so good. All the food is very authentic. The service is fast and the staff is friendly. This place totally worth to try if you are looking for authentic Cuban food!!
It’s very hard to find excellent, authentic Cuban food in New York and upon arriving in Fort Lauderdale we made a stop. The breakfast was wonderful, the croquetas were very flavorful and it was so wonderful, we had to return before our departure. Very welcoming staff and good service.
Me and my mother visited in the summer. This place is awesome! We both agree that this is the best cuban food we've ever had. We LOVED the Tamales! Everything was good, the place was clean and the service was also good. The next time we visit this area, we will definitely be eating here again.
