   Great service and ambiance. Cute little spot in the mall. I ordered the chef’s recommendation for the crispy pork meal. It was crispy but dry. Maybe an off day.

   Extremely cramped seating and very loud (not in a good way). FYI, this is in the mall. We were seated by a flickering light that would give anyone a migraine. Didn’t try the food because we got up and left

    We live in the area and wanted to like it but it was just not good. It was not authentic Cuban food; but not inventive enough to justify changing classic Cuban recipes either. Croquetas came still frozen inside. Boiled yuca was hard because they didn’t cook it long enough. Nothing that arrived to the table came hot, it all was served luke warm. Only two redeeming things of the meal were the texture the meat in the pan con bistec sandwich, and the arroz Moro was eatable. Brought friends from out of town and immediately regretted it. Will pay more for a guaranteed good meal at another restaurant next time. Won’t be back.

    Great ambiance and food. Very beautiful decor. Service very slow, probably because the restaurant always looks very busy. But, anyways it was very slow and since I had a mini golf reservation at 9:30 right there at Brickell Center I couldn’t even order dessert bc I was rushing even when we sit down at the restaurant at 7:45. My advise, go and have a lot of patience and not plans afterwards

    MarabúResponded on January 18, 2023Thank you for your positive feedback. We are pleased to know our ambiance, food and decor were to your liking and we apologize if the service was a little too slow; we have notified Management and they are taking the proper actions.

    Nice restaurant, although in a shopping mall. Great food and great service. However, they had more reservations (party of 2 on a Wed night at 7pm) than they were able to accommodate inside the restaurant - and hence proposed to seat us in an “overflow” seating area in front of the restaurant (mall area, which lacks the nice ambiente of the restaurant). We declined that and instead were seated at the bar, which was fine with us (enjoyed fantastic food and service. Total bill, incl. automatically-charged 18% tip, over $120 per person).

    This was shown as the #1 ranked restaurant in Miami. It was a surprise to find it on the 4th level of a shopping mall, and the best thing we ate was the cucumber appetizer - worth ordering a second one. But the rest of the food while good for the most part and sometimes a little disappointing (dried out fish) was not what we were expecting given the reviews. Maybe the chef was off?
