DONA NELI RESTAURANT 2 – Mexican
The second Dona Neli sits deep in southwest Miami-Dade, where the cafecito window opens early and the kitchen keeps going long past dinner. This is homestyle Cuban cooking built on family recipes: house croquetas of ham, chorizo and bacalao, chicharron de pollo, tostones stuffed with vaca frita, palomilla a la plancha, arroz con mariscos and a frita cubana regulars order without checking the board. Sandwiches run from medianoche to pan con lechon; pizzas, batidos and flan fill the gaps. Diners come back for attentive servers, generous portions and prices that still feel reasonable. Two dining rooms, one family's kitchen tradition.
