I ordered several pan con bistec sandwiches for my staff at work and a media noche sandwich. Each sandwich was about $10 on Uber eats. The sandwiches were a good portion. The pan con bistec had ver soft Cuban bread and the steak was thin and easy to eat with great seasoning. Everyone enjoyed their sandwiches!

Delicious empanadas! [Miami FL]La Esquina is their original store and is a little corner sandwich shop on SW 12th Avenue and W Flagler Street. We stopped by to get a quick snack before heading out to Little Havana on 8th Street. They are a walk up counter and no table seating to eat. Street parking only (if you can find one) and trying to find one can be challenging and downright frustrating... "I just want my empanadas!!" LoL! They offered authentic traditional Cuban sandwiches and Pan Con Bistec. We had already planned to have lunch at Calle Ocho so we just bought empanadas and stuffed potato ball. Now I regret not trying their Pan Con Bistec as I've heard they make the best, like how the Cuban immigrants used to make it. In our experience here we purchased two chicken empanadas, one meat empanada and a Papa rellena estilo Cuba (Cuban stuffed potato). The employees didn't speak much English but we were able to catch on. If I'm ever back in Miami this would be my second food place to stop.Review #2889

This place is amazing, the prices are very reasonable.My first trying this spot was back in 2013 when my sister lived nearby. I would go after the Marlins games. Every time I am in town, that's my go to spot for Cuban coffee. The steak sandwich is very tasty. They also have good guava strudels and smoothies.

I'm from CA and have been hearing about how Cuban bread bistek with meat been done locally. Of course this is the only chance I can taste the local authentic Cuban style empanadas . Lol my wife o believe had the plane croissant and maybe a beef empanada and I had both chicken and beef. Yea I should've got other bread but we were on a time crunch for suppose to be a walking tour in little Havana. I ate the empanadas later at our resort andAll of them was very delicious. It's different and juicy as well. Not dry like what I taste here in CA. It's different good. The only thing I can advise is this is a corner store / bakery and don't have a sit down dining area. It's popular with the locals and if you're expecting to have a sit down chow down ... it'll be in your car.

Very friendly staff. This place is busy so you might have to wait just a few minutes. The croquetas are 95 cents each and double the length than regular ones. What a steal!! They are very very thin crusted and soft. That means mostly filling.

Great food and great service close to the heart of Little Havana and Calle Ocho. Prices are very reasonable and I am definitely going back. An added bonus, they are across from a Goodwill Superstore that always has great treasures.

This place slaps the bad reviews are customers expecting restaurant service at a ventanita. Sure it can be rough around the edges but that doesn't take away from the fact that this place is a gem. Food tastes great and the vibe is exactly what I'm used to as a Cuban Miami native

Review # 850.The name of this restaurant is literally means the corner of steak sandwiches. It is located at the corner of, where else, Flagler and SW12th Ave in Miami. There is no place to sit down, the counter literally is at the edge of the business lease line. Your place your order, get your food and sit if there is a stool available.On the day that my wife and I went there, I ordered a Cuban sandwich, of which I was told that they were out of the delicious Cuban pork for the sandwich. Who in their right mind runs out of this ingredient for a key item on their menu. Very disappointed about this. My wife ordered a steak sandwich, which is their namesake. We got both sandwiches, went back to our hotel room, and had lunch. I must say both sandwiches were very delicious, even the Cuban without the pork.Definitely worth a try when you are in Miami. Just make sure to ask them to make sure that they have pork for the Cuban sandwiches.I'll give them a second chance in the future.

If your thinking about eating here, save yourself the disappointment & go somewhere else. These ladies working there are running this business to the ground. They talk to each other the whole time and forget you are there waiting. I was standing there after ordering my pan con bistec for literally 20min. And I'm the only one in line. The cashiers excuse is that they decided to clean the grill in the middle of me placing my order. The attitude they give you says a lot for this place,
