Tropics Cafeteria

We came for authentic Cuban food and were not disappointed . They have homemade specials daily. I got the pescado al limon and my partner got the Cuban sandwich . Their Maduros are perfect (plantains) and their rice and beans are delicious. Service was friendly and quick. Note: I asked for their WiFi password and they refused . Pretty annoying given I had to work from home while I ate.

This place has amazing hispanic food in north miami beach. Ive been coming here since I was in high school 20 years ago!!! Everything on their menu is pretty good. I ordered some breakfast for takeout and food was ready in less than 10 minutes. I forgot to take pictures but their prices are very reasonable and steak and chicken sandwhich are soooo good!!!.

TLDR: The best parts of Miami in one place. My favorite place to be! 5/5.MY HONEST THOUGHTS:It's about time that I took the time to write this review. I come here almost religiously with my wife, as we absolutely enjoy every opportunity to have a hearty meal. I can say with absolute confidence that, no matter what day of the week it is, no matter what meal you decide to eat, you will ABSOLUTELY enjoy it.The service? Splendid, as the waitresses and even the owner are extremely nice (and a pleasure to talk to)!The menu? There's literally so many options and all of them are extremely filling! For me personally, it has the quality of a five-star restaurant while being so cozy and comfortable. If I ever move from Miami, I would want to take the whole restaurant with me!5/5. I ABSOLUTELY would give more if I could.

I ordered the lomo de atún con ajo y limon (Tuna with garlic and lemon) as the special of the day and it did not disappoint! Perfectly seasoned, and not too much of both. Rice, beans, and yuca, as my sides, of course. Beans had great flavor! I'll never get enough of these three sides. Service was great! The new girl (I didn't get her name) was very helpful.I'll be back next time I'm in town.

Ok so I cameHere to wait for traffic to die down was kind of hungry so decided to try it out. I ordered a coloada sin azucar, two Croquetas and a chicken empanada. I'll be honest, I'm super picky with croquetas but it's only because I'm croqueta obsessed!! They weren't a 10 but a high 7 especially since they were made to order and came with a perfect pairing of a cilantro dipping sauce (I'm a sucker for sauce.) However what MADE ME write this review was the chicken empanada. Hands down the best chicken empanada I've ever had!!! It came out Piping hot, the perfect crispness, the chicken was juicy and fresh tasting the flavors were nostalgic to the point where literally even my abuelita would be impressed!! Haha In fact they were so good that at my next event I will be ordering a whole box. Now to plan an event just to have the excuse to buy 20!! Haha!! Keep it up and bravo to this DELICIOUS empanada de pollo!!

Happily frequent this place on my visits. They're a reliable source of energy (see: cortaditos and cafe con leches), and also have tasty food options, including a pan de bolo that is super yummy.

My favorite Cuban steak sandwich spot in my childhood neighborhood. I've been going here since my sister went in high school. So it's right down the street from our high school North Miami Beach Senior High and I would walk there with my volleyball team after practice for a quick bite. It became so traditional, we'd come on the weekends. It's a small restaurant on the first level of an apartment home. A small hole in the wall - which we all know those are the best. The Milanese chicken rice dish is awesome, the steak sandwich is a classic go to for a quick sandwich bite, the churrasco steak rice dish is amazingggg, the vaca frita rice dish is also bomb. All rice dishes come with white rice and black beans and sweet plantains. Very accommodating to substitutions like tostones instead of maduros (sweet plantain). You're welcome. They also have smoothies, made with milk or water, called batidos. The mango batido is a must order. The mamey is also very good but I'm not too sure what kind of fruit it is. If you're in the 'hood this is a definitely latin food stop.

Great place for a quick snack. Staff is friendly and the service is fast. I enjoy my cortadito and pan de Bono very much.

Awesome local spot, fast fresh food and service with a smile, only problem is they arent open for dinner time!

awesome every thing \great service I have had Cubana sandwichEgg sandwiches Various egg omlettes All great
