A beloved Cuban restaurant on Calle Ocho in Little Havana that consistently outshines pricier Miami Beach spots. Order the slow-roasted pork shank, the Churrasco with chimichurri, the Cuban sandwich, or croquetas — servers like Gipsia and Sheilla are known for steering you right with personal recommendations. There's a lively back courtyard with music and beautiful outdoor seating. Arrive earlier in the day if you want easy seating, as it draws steady crowds.
