EL REY DEL LECHON – Mexican
El Rey Del Lechon is a Cuban and Caribbean roast-pork specialist with a Miami location at 1810 SW 21 Terr, built around lechón, or slow-roasted suckling pig, finished with crispy skin and served as a plate or by the pound. The kitchen also prepares whole roasted pigs to order for catering and larger events, in addition to its regular counter service. Hours generally run late morning through evening on weekdays, with the roast-pork focus staying consistent across its offerings rather than branching into a wider Cuban menu. The business also operates under the same name at a second Miami-Dade address.
