Las Olas Cafe

Maybe the most frequently asked question by out-of-towners—other than “Where’d they film Scarface?”—is, “Where’s the best Cuban food in South Beach?” And while that answer varies, for a straight-up Cubano there’s no better, easier, or cheaper place than Las Olas, where they coat each piece of Cuban bread with butter before topping it with house-roasted pork loin and Swiss, sliding it open-faced onto the plancha so everything gets all melty-gooey-delicious, and serving it to you for a very un-South Beach price of $9.95.
How to book: Stop by for first-come, first served seating or order take-out and delivery via Postmates, GrubHub, or Uber Eats.
