Rincon Criollo Restaurant

I've eaten here twice when I have had layovers in Miami on the way to and from Antigua on a girls' trip with a friend. The restaurant is near the airport and it was super convenient to get to from my hotel. Wonderful place to get Cuban food and it had a fun atmosphere. The food was great and affordable. Service was nice as well. I would definitely recommend this restaurant!

A local spot in a busy industrial area by the airport. It is a casual dinner offer Cubano staples in a pleasant informal ambiance. My veg hamburger had no life hence I chopped off a star but other than that rest of the dishes were simple, tasty and authentic. The Tostones were huge and a little on the thick side … very delish. The yucca served with garlic oil/sauce was again nice and earthy … enjoyed it. The Plantain Maduros were right on the mark. The Cubano sandwich was excellent. All in all a well priced & solid eating experience. We may go back there for some breakfast… it has outdoor seating by the open bar and indoor seating as well. Service is excellent.

02/28/2023 1500 hours: Oh man! After a week in Ecuador, finding this place during a layover was like heaven. (yeah, yeah, I know what you're thinking: have I been in heaven?). Dropping in at 3pm for a late lunch, the pork was a bit dry but that was to expected. The steak was tasty. The black beans are to die for. The rice was fabulous. Maybe it's just me but even the water tasted great! A steak plate with rice and plantains, a pork cutlet plate with black beans and rice and, a side of black beans set us back $44, a bit steep but worth it. I hope you will come away feeling the same. I might have to stop by here for breakfast on the way to the airport tomorrow. Stay tuned... Give me thumbs up if you agree.
