Cafecito

Cafecito is a restaurant that provides a warm atmosphere, recalling old Havana and the lifestyle of the Caribbean. We serve updated, yet soulful cuisine, incorporating lighter cooking techniques to the classic dishes of Cuba. Here you will find only the types of food that you would expect your grandmother or mother to serve you at the dinner table. Our food and drinks are authentic. Our vibe represents the food of Havana with Miami attitude. I hope you enjoy a visual journey of our food, ambiance and a little piece of our hearts.
