   I have been coming here for years. They’ve recently redecorated. And added a lovely bar too. Don’t bring your dog because you are not permitted to give it water on the floor. My party was totally harassed from the manager on three different occasions stating the law, causing one of the party members to leave with her dog. To  make things even worse a complementary dessert was brought over while stating the law. I think it was abusive and over the top. Bottom line is don’t come to that establishment with your dog. They really don’t want them

   Excellent service. Cuban style home cooking as my mother use to make, authentic. Pleasant looking restaurant, tidy and clean. Attentive friendly staff. Highly recommendable. One comment that refers to all restaurant= when there are noisy very loud customers, the management should advice them that they are in a public space and not at home. That their unruly behavior is bothersome to other customers, I have found this issue in many restaurants, but management is for some reason afraid to confront this problem.

   Looking for cuban food while visiting Miami - found this restaurant on OpenTable and decided to try it out. Very happy we did! Ambiance is great - nice touches of Latin and Cuban decor, service was attentive and food was great. Recommend the coquettes! and Flan for dessert. Would go again.

   Here on vacation. We had the sampler appetizer, Cubano sandwich, vaca frita, and Palomilla and classic Mojitos. Everything was fantastic. Great value too!

   We sat outside. The food and cocktails were great. The young lady who waited on us was very kind. I have some food allergies and she was very attentive. Thank you Padrino’s!

    The red snapper was really good and very flavorful and the empanadas. I loved the mojito as well. Great vibe. I will definitely come again when I visit Florida.
