Excellent food! So big you should share. Go creative and try something different: the pork is delicious! If you are by walk at Little Havana, know this: very far in Calle Ocho!

Their cafe con leche is so good! Try their calle ocho sandwich! It's a very nice place. You would think the food would cost a lot because the place is set up so elegantly but the price is just right!

Good authentic Cuban Food. Place is huge so not much of a wait. Breakfast buffet is 10.95 and it's all the Cuban Food you know. So try everything. Plenty of parking.

This famous Miami landmark spins out Cuban food for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Oh, it’s also the home of the Cuban sandwich. Versailles is open late too, well past 2 AM on the weekends. Read more

Authentic Cuban food. Large portions and super reasonable prices. Be sure to finish your meal with a delicious cortadito. Or two.
Alèxia SoléJuly 11, 2015
They serve a wild range variety of authentic cuban food. No wonder the place is crowded with local people. The quantities are huge. They offer freshly fruit juice (try Toronja / grapefruit).
Maina KhojaJune 24, 2018
The place is huge and busy, the food is so good, I recommend the oxtail dish or one of their mixed platters & don’t miss the pastitos with guava and cream cheese it’s one of the best!
Norah CordovaJuly 30, 2017

Versailles is history along with a taza de café. Perfect spot to grab a quick Cuban dessert with cortadito, which they brew in front of you. Be ready to live a Cuban experience in the heart of Miami.
Djaniella D.March 7, 2017
Outstanding cortadito so make sure to grab one ... or two... before you leave. The portions are HUGE, delicious, and at beyond reasonable prices.
ThelocaltripperAugust 2, 2015
Quick service, inexpensive great food, despite this being a big restaurant the food tasted very homie. I had the vaca frita and it was juicy and savory. Have to go back for dessert and coffee!

There's no better place to have an authentic Cuban meal than at Versailles. No visit is complete without a Cuban sandwich, mojito, ropa vieja, plantains, and Cuban coffee. [Eater 38 Member]

What I’d come back for are the empanadas and coffee—either a cafe cubano or a cortadito—all of which you can get at the ventanita (walk up outdoor pickup window) for roughly $1/each
Jacobo GómezAugust 7, 2014
Been here 10+ times
Always share with someone. Seriously, really good Cuban food, very reasonably priced, but gigantic portions. You can't go wrong with the Milanesa Steak, it comes with two sides.
Patricia FemeníasNovember 10, 2013
Best Cuban food in the world (after my grandmother's). Try the ham croquettes and the white rice with black beans. Best coffee too.
Silene LimDecember 8, 2018
We had the green plantains with shrimp creole, and assorted croquettes. As the main dish, chicken Versailles was well seasoned, delicious and super tender. Highly recommend. Finish off with cortadito!
Regi CJanuary 24, 2018
Cuban🇨🇺experience classic restaurant.Im a healthy eater mostly veg🌱 but I found some options at Versailles.Mostly all fried.People that work there have been working many years.Go hungry Plates big
Andy KanenasJanuary 28, 2018
Amazing lamb, ceviche and service! Feels like you are at a Cuban friend that really likes you and his mom cooks for you!
Michelle AlexandriaAugust 20, 2017
Food was amazing and decent priced. They service big quantities so think about sharing. Staff is very welcoming! Must have a cortadito, its so rich and delicious.
MiamiCulinaryTours.comSeptember 20, 2013
Versailles has been serving authentic Cuban cuisine for over 40 years. Order a “cortadito” through their “ventanita” (outside window) or go inside for one of the best Cuban sandwiches in Miami.
Bikash MishraMay 3, 2017
The place to go for Cuban food. Everything is flavorful and the service is outstanding despite how busy it gets. A must do when in Miami!
Danica CheungMay 25, 2013
Dont let the basic decor fool you. The Cuban food here is amazing. Must try their Cortadito, and bacalao croquetas. Empanadas is great too.
Damaris GarciaOctober 28, 2019
The empanadas are to die for.. The wait wasn’t bad for it being so busy. The staff is friendly and the service is great! Also best Cuban café you will ever have.
James CAugust 25, 2014
Absolutely amazing get the mashed plantains with fried pork chunks. Cuban is a classic but an absolute classic. Drinks are great and the staff is amazing. Grab a Cuban coffee on the way out.
Steve LeVineNovember 16, 2022
The shrimp al ajillo was tasty. Be warned that this place is basically a diner. Dressing for salad is literally a packet of Ken’s Dressing. Service is not just fast- it’s rushed. Prices are reasonable
Amanda McNeilDecember 18, 2018
The cubano is everything you've heard but also don't miss the cafe con leche - the best I've ever had. It comes as warm milk with a side of espresso you pour in yourself.
John HankusNovember 12, 2014
The pastries and desserts are great here. Authentic Cuban bakery. Try the guava pastelitos and the meat empanadas. Caramel eclairs are good too. You can buy quite a bit for a low cost.
Sung CFebruary 22, 2017
One of the best meals ever! Cuban toast is incredible. Roast pork flawless. Don't get the Cubano, not that great. Flan was Greg and light. Cortadino to end it all. Amazing.
Gilberto SoaresOctober 14, 2012
Very tasteful cuban restaurant. We recommend Vaca Frita with 1/2 jarra of Sangria. Checked it out, go to their bakery asides the restaurant and prove the tarteleta de piña y coco. Coffee sweetened:-p
Victoria U.September 19, 2013
The "abuelo" of all Cuban Restaurants in Miami. Open 24 hours and always packed. If you're lucky you'll see some of the Old Guard smoking cigars and bashing Castro
Luke WangAugust 26, 2017
Can’t go wrong with anything you order. Cuban style pork is one of the most popular dish. But don’t forget the dessert and coffee in the end. If you are looking a refreshing drink get the Manjito
TingSeptember 12, 2015
Nestled in Little Havana, this place is an institution if you judge by the long queue.Good place to try out classic Cuban fares.Seafood paella is huge so unless u have a big group,u will be filled up.
Yvette LiuSeptember 13, 2015
Good Cuban food! And the ropa vieja is so good! A touristic spot to be with great food 👍🏻
Santiago LopezMay 24, 2015
Definitely going to come here again. The Versailles was simply the best of my Little Havana experience. The food and service could not have been better. I recommend the rice with chicken! :)
BECKY COLLINSJanuary 29, 2020
Amazing!!! The coconut flan will leave you speechless it is so darn good! Everything was delicious and very reasonable!
Don KernerDecember 10, 2017
Lechon Asado con moros y yuca. (Cuban roasted pork, mixed rice and beans and yuca. All meals delicious. Try the sangria A+
Amy WiddowsonFebruary 3, 2015
Yes, it's on the tourist lists, but curb your inner snob, park your butt down and get a mojito and the braised oxtails. Also: there's a reason that their cubano sandwich is written about everywhere.
Hale HoeflickJanuary 5, 2015
This is Miami's treasure..ok ok, I went there because of the movie Chef. I mean, it was already on my to go list but the movie helped. And of course the food was amazing. 9.3/10 speaks for itself!

Diners can munch on guava pastries and croquettes while eavesdropping on discussions about U.S. relations with Cuba and the state of Fidel Castro's health. Read more

Love it, best cuban food we had in our Miami trip. Ropa vieja and the classic platter were amazing. Didn't try sandwich cubano but looked great.
Hispanos En MiamiJuly 4, 2012
This is where we like to go for The BEST Cuban Sandwich in Little Havana, Miami. Try a side of Fried Yuca with cilantro garlic sauce, a nice variation from the classic garlic mojito sauce.
Ben K.February 19, 2016
The original Miami Cuban restaurant. Get a Cubano, ropa vieja, plantains, and wash it all down with a cafecito.
Martin OngApril 1, 2016
The tres leches is too good to be true. Be sure to save room for it!
Juan HuayllaOctober 24, 2014
Incredible and authentic Cuban food. It is worth the drive from south beach. It really sucks Miami does not have public transportation like New York or Washington DC. The hike is worth it
Alyssa B.December 7, 2021
Cheap and delicious quintessential stop. Visit the calle ocho resto or the many kiosks at MIA terminal for pastellitos to-go
Mike KlubokJanuary 14, 2015
There is a reason there is a 30 minute wait to get in. The best Cuban. The food was exceptional with large portions and reasonable prices. Our waiter was friendly and attentive.
Wu-Tang: The Saga ContinuesDecember 7, 2017
Versailles serves up some of Miami's most authentic Cuban food. It's loved by locals and tourists alike. No visit is complete without a Cuban sandwich and mojito.
EaterJanuary 14, 2011
A Miami landmark. Just like Mango's on Ocean Drive, Versailles is typically high on the list of visitors looking for that quintessential Miami experience. [Eater 38 Member] Read more
Dorothy McGivneyJuly 24, 2013
Also recommended by my Cuban/Miami sister-in-law. For lunch try medianoches or pan con bistec. And don't skip dessert! Flan de coco or tres leches are her personal favorites.
Nelson V. GuevaraJuly 3, 2018
Excellent Cuban coffee, very good mojito, excellent vaca frita and even better rabo encendido (ox tail). I will keep coming back here.
