Larios on the Beach
(Restaurants - Cuban)
820 Ocean Dr, Miami Beach  33139 • 305-532-9577
Distance: ~12.62 mi from The Fairmont Turnberry Isle Resort & Club
Description: SOUTH BEACH. This is Cuban done South Beach-style – that means with glitz, bright color, and ultra-chic decor. Young Cuban-Americans and trendy folks of all colors, creeds, and ages make this restaurant a mob scene on weekends. If you want to commune with the elbow-to-elbow crowds, Friday and Saturday are ideal. But if you want to dine on Cuban specialties in relative peace, come earlier in the week. The beans and rice is flavorful and hearty, as are the roasted chicken and the Palomilla steak. The prices are a bit higher than at many Cuban eateries, but the party crowd says the ambience and hip clientele are worth every penny. Reservations recommended.

Sun-Thu 11:30am-11:30pm; Fri-Sat 11:30am-Midnight

The ambiance of this restaurant is awesome! As a Cuban American I must say that the food very much resembled what I grew up eating. It's very "Homey" food. It's like your Abuela (grandmother) is cooking. The music keeps a nice trendy and jazzy vibe all throughout. The location is South Beach, which is always interesting to be at since it is so diverse. The service is EXCELLENT. Everyone is in a relaxed mood and just happy to be there. I say "Two thumbs Up" for Larios.

This was my worst dining experience ever. The food was just average, the pork was dry and lacking in the flavor, nothing to brag about. The service was horrible. Our waitress brought us the wrong appetizers, forgot our drinks, and we reminded her each time she came to our table that we had yet to receive our drinks, and by the time the bill came, we still had no drinks. She charged us for the wrong appetizers, as well as the drinks we never received. When we brought this to her attention, she proceeded to argue with us about it. I was floored at the behavior. The manager then came and gave a very insincere apology. I cannot believe that a popular restaurant like that would allow that type of service in their restaurant. Unbelievably horrid!!! Don't waste your time. The Fox Cafe a few doors down was excellent. Excellent food, ambiance, and superb service.
