Dona Paulina

Went here for lunch and was very impressed with the meal! The steak tasted phenomenal and was seasoned so well. The sausage was also very tasteful and filling. The prices for the menu were also very reasonable. Only thing to say is service was fairly slow but you will not leave this place feeling disappointed about your meal!

We were pleasantly surprised to find this cozy little restaurant nearby. I assumed it was Latin, but it was actually Uruguayan. My only "con" is that they sat us by the window, and then 15 minutes later we were told that table had been reserved and they moved us. That, and they didn't speak English, but my husband speaks enough to get by. My husband ordered the Milanesa with moros and grilled vegetables. I had the palomilla steak with a baked potato and grilled vegetables. They brought sour cream but no butter, but there was enough butter left in the bread basket that I made do. Yelpers--if you check in, you get a free dessert. We choose flan and it was A+. We noticed that a lot of customers seemed to be regulars at this place. Good food breeds loyalists, right? They were setting up for a singer at 9pm, but we a short time before he was to start. Next time...

This locale has been open for ages and had forgotten about it, but tired of not finding easy parking in other locations (gables for example) to eat at a popular Argentinian restaurant in the area, I decided to come back to give it a try. Along Bitd road you can find the coziest family oriented place to have a great old fashioned, cooked to perfection, delightfully seasoned (just salt), and likely grilled in a simple gas grill. The visit was short, sweet and to the pint. Welcomed with warmed bread and butter (as it should be) until the food arrived we started having a piece of bread w chimichurri. I must add that since this review I've been going every weekend looking for more of this feeling of a home cooked meal, but that said, I will share that the chimichurri is a bit too much on the salty side, excellent none the less. Back to the review, I'm a fan of the churrasco de vacío (flank steak) and oh boy, you should too. The quality of the meat is impressive, not sure where they source this from but it is fantastic. The order includes a side of salad and an optional extra order of fries or rice, etc. Well, we had 2 different types of meat to check out not only some of the most popular options but also what are our favorites choices. We went for the flank steak and a picanha (coulotte steak).the order is 12 oz. Each order is enough for 2 people if you consider that you should not have more that 6oz per serving but it is worth mentioning that one order could be well shared between 2, especially if you had bread or if you order an appetizer. We did not bc we rather had a larger portion each. But, honestly one portion is shareable. Again, not going to get tired of reminding you why you should try these excellent options, but rather wanna make sure that through repetition you go there and give it a try yourself. They also have an extensive selection of wines but since I've only been there for luck kept it a beer level, however there's plenty of options should you want to throw a great Malbec or Cab to accompany your order, but that's just discretionary and a nice add on. Anyway, could not pass the opportunity to also mention that while the staff is kind they are not necessarily very attentive. The could improve a bit in that but like most major restaurants today, I noticed they were short staffed in every visit I've been there. You see the staff busy to keep that place running and that should be always appreciated. Finally, every visit has been pleasant and delightful. Food has been amazing but the place is a bit outdated and could be improved. It is a family place and the quality of the ingredients are up there, yet I think the prices are worth the flavors you encounter. There's a show at nights on Fridays and at least Saturdays night, but not sure if the time. While I was eating the person that sings came over and invited us. Super corteous guy. Need to go back to hear him singing and enjoy a glass of wine with good music. I've been meaning to write about this restaurant, but did not find the time until now. I took a couple pictures of both the menu and our orders as they say, a picture is worth a thousand words. As you will see the meats come perfectly cooked not charred, and well presented and cooked. This may not be a perfect 5 but one of the strongest 4.5, but since there's always room for improvement we'll stick to 4. Oh, and I say #goenjoyagreatsteak. Because life's too short not to enjoy and give it a try. #Dontforgetyourmalbec. Cheers!

Great food! Chivito al plato my fav!Wide wine selection and dessert is to die for, recommend not to share it, you'll regret it ;)

Small Gem on Bird Rd near Tropical Park. Love their Caprese Salad, fresh and plentyful. Chorizo (Sausage) is a must for starter. Beef choices are exquisite and perfectly cooked to your taste. Tey their Picana or Bife de Chorizo (NY Strip). Service is top notch too (ask for Elizabeth). Their owner, Melissa, is always there to assist.

Soooo good and very authentic Uruguayan plates! It was a great find in Miami! (Thanks yelp!)It's a lot of food, so you might think about sharing. The chivito is really good! Comes with ham, cheese, soft egg, bacon, lettuce and tomato. The milanesa was great and authentic. It doesn't come with a side so you might want to order fries. The milanesa napolitana was fantastic! For dessert we split the panqueques de dulce de leche and they were amazing!Service was great! Super friendly!!! It's a bit slow but worth the wait :-)

russian salad too much mayonnaise... it would help more people on the floor serving...so we do not need to keep asking for things

Wonderful ambiance. Ismaris is wonderful she's the reason we go there. Food terrific nice variety.

Delicious food at great prices. The service was also equally as good. The ambiance is quaint.

I love eating at this restaurant. I go almost every morning because their coffee is the best. The chefs never disappoint and the service is always the best. I love the ambiance of the restaurant and would highly recommend eating at doña paulina :)
