I used to eat breakfast every single day 10 years ago while living close to El Palacio de los Jugos at another location. Now I’m happy to be able to enjoy again this delicious breakfast at this location. It comes with 3 eggs, bacon, ham, french fries, a Cuban toast and coffee. The crew is pretty attentive. You would have a good start of the day.

Lauren went above and beyond for me at El Palaces. She was extremely kind, professional, and attentive from the start. When I asked her to fix my juice, she handled it immediately with no attitude and no hesitation at all. She made sure everything was perfect and that I left happy. On top of her amazing service, she carries herself with so much confidence and positive energy. She truly represents the business well. I will definitely be coming back because of her.

Walking into El Palacio de los Jugos was an immediate immersion into a vibrant, bustling world of incredible aromas and lively energy. The atmosphere truly buzzes with excitement, and it’s clear this isn’t just a restaurant, but a cultural experience. The sheer variety of food on display is astounding; it genuinely took me a good 5 to 10 minutes just to navigate through the friendly crowd and take it all in. Everything looked incredibly fresh and utterly delicious, making it wonderfully difficult to choose!
I opted for one of their authentic Latin dishes, and the portion was incredibly generous. The oxtail was a standout – perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor. And the pineapple juice? Absolutely divine. It’s clear why people keep coming back for it; I certainly couldn’t get enough!
While the place can get a bit chaotic with numbers being called and the general lively noise, it only adds to the authentic charm. The staff, despite the busy environment and occasional language barrier (lots of friendly pointing happened!), were genuinely helpful and pleasant. It felt like a true taste of Miami, offering not just great food but genuine hospitality. I’ll definitely be making this a regular stop!

The chicharron is crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside! Huge portions with plenty of meat at an affordable price—it’s absolutely perfect!

This place is filled with aroma and the atmosphere is buzzing. Food is everywhere and everything looks so delicious. It’s hard to choose. You need at least 5 to 10 minutes to push through the crowd to see all of the food displays. Then, you have to back and see what you like. They do offer samples of you are curious. There is spacious outdoor seating, but there is a mild amount of flies that may join you. They weren’t too bad. The folks serving the food don’t speak a lot of English and it can be hard to hear over the noise from the other people there, so there was a lot of pointing lol.

Cool place for sure!!! Definitely a different type of restaurant then I was thinking. They have a few different vendors and the food is already prepared so it’s fast. My food was good although it was not hot or fresh, but I liked it. The only thing I had a problem with was I tried to talk to 3 different women and NONE of them spoke ANY English and I don’t speak Spanish. Other then that cheap food, taste good and in and out quickly.

Got back from the cruise and the Uber driver suggested us to go to El Palacio de los Jugos. We said okand he drove us here with all our bags since our Airbnb wasn’t ready, so we had time to kill.
We entered the area they were preparing the food so they were getting ready. This place had a lot of people coming and ordering food to go or to dine in.
The place is like A la carte there are many items you can pick. Some items are priced differently and some items are weighed like the ox tails. Make sure you ask and they will tell you.
-Food – the food are displayed buffet tray heaters and so much to choose from. I ordered a quarter chicken, ropa vieja, ox tail, empanada, rice with pork chucks, and guava pastry 4/5
-Quarter Chicken: awesome flavor the chicken was tender and tasty 4.1/5
– Ropa Vieja: great stewed beef very flavourful 4/5
– ox tail: pricey but very tasty and tender 4.3/5
– Rice with Pork chucks: great rice with pork just awesome 4/5
– Empanadas chicken and beef: the empanada were tasty 4/5
– Guava Pastry: tasty flaky and yummy the guava filling was very tasty 4.5/5
– Mamey juice: it was okay 3/5
– Atmosphere: it is not cozy just not really good atmosphere. I wouldn’t want to stay around after you eat and I would just get the food to go. 2/5
– Service: The service is okay not the best especially if you never been there. You pull the ticket to get called so you can order. I had to ask how much the were some of the items don’t have a price. 3/5
Would I go back to this location: yes

I came here for Cinco de Mayo weekend for some masas de puerco( Cuban chicharron) I took a ticket and getting served was pretty fast I didn’t have to wait long. I ordered my masas, got some yuca(cassava),lechon, a side of mojo and saw some little fritters made of Coco (a root vegetable similar to cassava) and those were delicious,$2.99 I think for the order of 4. I opted to sit right there and eat, got some drinks and 2 limes and asked the young lady to cut for me. The experience was good but what would make it great would be if the ladies were welcoming and smiled. It’s like all of them are stoic and unfriendly like a luggage belt just wanting to hurry deal with you and get you out. Aside from that it’s a Miami staple to try.Also, try one of the little flans, they’re perfect portions and delicious

Best pork chop I ever had in my LIFE!!!. The rice was perfectly seasoned and moist. The drinks were on point and so are the prices. Helps if you speak Spanish otherwise you’re just going to be pointing. I have to go back everytime I go back to Miami.
