ISLAS CANARIAS GRILL & BAKERY – Spanish
Family-run Cuban cooking in Miami since 1977, when Raul and Amelia Garcia opened the first counter; their descendants still run the kitchens. The croquetas are the calling card, and they are what most people are actually queuing for - alongside made-to-order beef and chicken empanadas, medianoches and pan con bistec, with a bakery case that covers everything from cafecito to cake. Breakfast through dinner, no real lull. Miamians treat it as a fixed point rather than a destination, which in this city is the higher compliment.
