Don't get fooled - it IS Denny's-esque
4 Star Rating: Recommended

05/31/2006 Posted by zoey1

On a recent weekend in Miami, in search of authenic Cuban food and following the advice of many reviewers on the internet, I took a LONG taxi ride to Versailles. Let me tell you... it IS the Denny's of Cuban cuisine... Absolutely terrible, Denny's-esque ambiance. That being said, the flank steak, black beans and rice were, in fact, great. And cheap. But... worst mojito I have ever had, very average empanadas. Yes, the food is good, authenic and cheap, but it is a long drive for a less-than-pleasant dining experience. Perhaps late night, after many drinks, the cafeteria-stlye dining room is less disappointing.

Pros: good food

Cons: terrible ambiance, bad mojitos, far from South Beach

Editor's Review

Famous for its kitschiness and early-morning hours, this Cuban version of Denny's has fans of every generation.  See the full editorial review.

Insider Tips

When to Go

While usually very family-friendly, the wee hours will often draw a younger, rowdier crowd looking for a hearty meal after a night of South Beach club-hopping.
