While a tourist trap, a must visit spot on any Miami trip. Ask for Ramona... best barista in the game!

Vegetarian? Check out the sides on the last page, and the salads. Just about everything else has meat. Great food though, and the place smells fantastic.

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.
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.

You know a sandwich is stellar when it's responsible for a story arc in a major motion picture. In Chef, the Cuban sandwich at Versailles is a revelation. Read more

The Thursday special, a split-pea pottage, was a delicious ham and potato stew with a pea base. Don't forget the cafe Cubano!
Leslie DriskillAugust 25, 2021
Great spot to enjoy some Cuban cuisine and hang out- it's always busy, day or night.
Simon SteadmanApril 12, 2017
A Miami foodie highlight. Service excellent, attentive food arrived very quickly and above all, great value. Roast pork was a revelation.
Don GApril 16, 2023
Empanadas chicken and beef were amazing. Crispy , flaky, and butter crust. Cafe con Leche best I’ve ever had and that says a lot.

Cubans in Miami: their center of gravity. With excellent cuban food and pastries and interesting personal stories to tell.expec long lines

Being from Los Angeles we do not have any where to get great Cuban food. This is a must for everyone to experience the best Cuban cuisine around.
D GonzelasJanuary 22, 2017
Authentic Cuban food that tastes great and prices are more than reasonable. Lots of free parking.
Maja PinteričMarch 31, 2019
This shrimp risotto was delicious + really big portion. If u wanna try typical cuban food, go here! 👍
Mason CombsApril 12, 2015
Amazing traditional Cuban food and the flan is the best and the batidos are amazing
Georgia KrauseMarch 10, 2016
Nice and cozy little restaurant I must say. Staffs were kind enough and easy to be with, food is right on, nothing fancy though, but definitely great.
ConstantinDecember 30, 2016
If you want to experience the real Miami, you have to come here and enjoy the authentic Miami food! Don't get intimidated by long lines. The place is huge inside and line moves quick.
The FeastJune 7, 2011
A Little Havana institution, it's where to take anyone looking for Cuban. Sit inside and feast on big portions of ropa vieja (shredded beef) or go to the walk-up counter for an empanada and cortadito.
Stefano RelliOctober 2, 2019
Great sandwiches and traditional Cuban fare. Restaurant looks expensive, but the prices are all right. Don't expect great service, but good food.
MiamiCulinaryTours.comOctober 23, 2013
Try their array of amazing croquettes; ham, chicken and bacalao! They'll even provide you with tartar sauce for the bacalao croquettes.
Eduardo MaglayaMay 27, 2013
The "Picadillo Ala Cubana" is freaking amazing! Definitely try the empanadas and for desert, the Cubano Flan is killer...great place, fast service!
Harish HoonJanuary 29, 2015
The king on Cuban restaurants. Get the cuban samplers for a little taste of everything. I'm partial to the Criollo sampler :-)
Vytautas PaulMarch 27, 2016
True Cuban restaurant in the heart of traditional Miami. Worth the wait by the door. Just come up sign your name and wait :)
O. E.February 9, 2016
Best paella I've ever had and the cafe con leche is outstanding! The perfect post-dinner drink. Loved this place!
Erica JacksonMay 29, 2016
Their sangria is so good! Try the Ropa Vieja! It's a very nice place and BIG! The food is also reasonably priced.
Mollie KMarch 5, 2013
Didn't hear a lot of English but its authentic, cheap and delicious! Had the Castillo Sampler and loved getting to try so many Cuban dishes!
Krystyna ErmerSeptember 12, 2010
If you are in Miami and you haven't been to Versailles then you don't know whats up. Best cuban food and experience in Miami. The menu is delicious, the service is great and the desserts... save room

Come to "The World’s Most Famous Cuban Restaurant" to celebrate with friends and family or, if on vacation, to get "el sabor" (the taste) of Miami.
Chris PolloneAugust 16, 2015
The classic that lives up to the hype. Ceviche and ropa vieja are good places to start.
Alan HedrickDecember 21, 2015
Versailles is the best of the best. Try the Cuban coffee. It's great.
Ceil WilsonAugust 18, 2018
Empanadas, their special Cuban sandwich and please don’t skip the bakery!!
Steve MarcheseJanuary 14, 2015
Best Cuban sandwich in Miami. Worth the drive out. Definitely. Pastries and empanada looked amazing too.
Drew AustinMarch 23, 2014
Fantastic Cuban meal. Order the Lentil Soup, Cuban Sandwich, Ropa Vieja, and the Rice Pudding. Thank me later.
Paula FreireNovember 9, 2014
Their Mojito is very good, ask for a not so sweet. The Cubano Regular is tasty, but it's nothing unforgetable.
Ebrahim BandookwalaOctober 18, 2015
Cortadito, Cubano , vaca frita, shredded beef fried with onions and served with moro, a mix of black beans
JennApril 3, 2013

Best cortadito in Miami! Love getting either croquettes sandwich, spinach & cheese empanada or guava pastelitos for breakfast!
 Raquel July 31, 2011
Been here 5+ times
THE best cafe con leche is at the window between the restaurant and the bakery - also? Don't get dessert at the restaurant - take a walk over to the bakery ;-)
The BigBFebruary 20, 2019
Great, authentic food! Very friendly staff, and really reasonable, low prices. A must in Miami!
Juan PasalaguaJanuary 1, 2016
Make sure you hear your name when you get called. Or else you'll get the "treatment" #punished #mistake
Melissa GDecember 2, 2014

Cafe con leche, beef picadillo and all the platanos you'll ever need. Must-visit resto when you find yourself in Miami.
Miami New TimesAugust 15, 2014
Versailles Restaurant opened in 1971 and, since then, has become a Calle Ocho staple for both locals and tourists alike. Read more

Get a Cuban coffee before heading out. Why? Because you’re in Cuban central (ie, your Starbucks back home isn't as good) & you just ate enough to put a horse to sleep, with more partying to be done. Read more
Kathryn DDecember 26, 2018
The best. If you have to wait, go to the counter next door for a pre-meal empanada.
peanutbuttergJanuary 17, 2015
One of my favorite breakfast spot! Spinach empanada is a must with cafe con leche!!
Jimmy ChrabiehMay 12, 2015
Try The Criollo sampler and add a croquetta for an authentic taste of Havana, end it with a flan coconut. Delicioso!
ToryBurchApril 14, 2011
For a taste of truly authentic Cuban fare, try the ropa vieja (shredded flank steak in tomato sauce) with a side of rice and beans and fried plantains.
DilekAugust 30, 2023
Excellent food, good prices. A traditional family place. Mojitos are great
Connor GJuly 18, 2016
