La Rosa Fine Cuban Cuisine

Stopped here the night before leaving for a cruise. Didn’t know what to expect. This place was fantastic. Delicious sangria. Had the oxtail. Rich and tender! Sauce was out of this world! Lechon was delicious as well. Ordered the flan de queso. Yum! Our waiter also brought us a toncinillo del cielo. It was so custardy, silky and smooth. Sweet and delicious. Manuel was so helpful in helping us decide what to eat and super friendly! Two thumbs up for Manuel!!

2/17/2026 The food here is amazing. Great Cuban food, somewhat elevated albeit, on the pricey side. The restaurant doesn't look like much from the outside, but the inside decor is very nice, allegorical to Cuba without going over the top. There's a cute outdoor area on the side as well. My only complaint here is service. I am not sure if I just happened to come on a bad day, but our waitress seemed a bit distracted and very slow and although there were other employees standing around, none offered help. Bottom line our food was cold and our water glasses were empty for a long while. If I am going to pay premium $, I certainly expect good service.

Only in Miami! All the way from Utah - enjoyed everything from the complimentary bread to Their 3 course Nonna special - which included salad or soup. And entree and choice of 2 sides. The value is amazing. To top things off you have a choice of dessert. We loved the Tres Leches and Rice Pudding. Manuel was provided excellent service and he knew about BYU football - plus for my hubbie! Would recommend- lots of other authentic Cuban dishes - you can tell made with pride and love.

We stumbled on this amazing restaurant just a few blocks from our hotel and wow, we are so glad we did! Manuel made our experience complete perfection - starting with the the mojitos to the Empanadas de Rabo, followed by the Vaca Frita de Res & the Lechon Asado, we were sooo happy! Just when we thought it couldn’t get any better, we asked Manuel to surprise us with a dessert and out came 2 amazing flans! This was a great start to our “Montana to Miami” experience ☺️ top notch - thank you Manuel!

We are from Iowa and we had the BEST meal!!! Manuel was the BEST!!! Very helpful and super sweet!!! He helped us choose our meals and they were outstanding!!! I highly recommend the pina colada drink as well!!! We have NEVER had a drink like it!!! Unbelievably amazing!!!!! Thank you so much Manuel!!!! Cornbread for you next time we come down!!!!
