Florida Restaurant

We were somewhat disappointed with our recent order. The chuletas ahumadas had a flavor profile more akin to honey-glazed spiral ham, rather than what we anticipated. Additionally, the rabo encendido (oxtail) was of mediocre flavor. The shrimp cocktail was acceptable. However, we found the black beans to be quite good.

Having lived in Miami for the past 24 years and being a 1st generation California Cuban, I know ab things out 2 about this cuisine! I can honestly say that it was Delicious! Authentic flavors of the island cooked in traditional style, I would go eat there again.

It is a Cuban restaurant and the service was great, the atmosphere was welcoming, and most of all, our food was delicious!!! I most wholeheartedly recommend it!

We were excited for the reopening of this favorite local Cuban fare spot! We waited for 40 minutes, but it was worth the wait. Prices are reasonable for how large the plates are. Everything we ordered was packed with flavor and plated nicely. Every table and booth was filled with customers, and the waitresses and I imagine the kitchen staff were very busy; they definitely could use a hostess with organizing skills; our name was erased twice in error. A sign in sheet with a time would definitely be helpful. Of course, we had to order additional plates to bring home.

After 2 years I am really glad Florida Restaurant is back open. It has the same excellent service and very good Cuban food. It has a new and improved ambience and decors. And of course, one always ends one’s meal with a cup of Cortadito.
