Versailles Restaurant Cuban Cuisine

The Cuban restaurant on Calle Ocho that everyone in Miami has an opinion about, chandeliers included.

Geprüft Oktober 2026

Versailles is less a restaurant than an institution: Cuban classics in a mirrored, chandeliered dining room on Calle Ocho, a coffee window that never stops, and hours from 8 am to past midnight every day.

Why you go

Because you cannot say you did Little Havana without it. The dining room is big, bright and vintage, the menu is the Cuban canon, and the walk-up window outside pours the coffee that has fueled the neighborhood's arguments for decades. Politicians stop here; so do grandmothers; so should you.

When to go

Breakfast or late. It opens at 8 am most days, 9 am on Sunday, and closes at midnight, 1 am on Friday and Saturday. Lunch is the crowd; dinner after 9 pm is calmer. The coffee window works any hour the place is open.

Know before you go

$ on Google, which is honest: it is one of the cheaper proper meals in Miami. There is a parking lot and the bakery next door for pastries to go. The address is 3555 SW 8th Street, west of the main Calle Ocho stretch, so plan a short drive or ride from the Domino Park blocks.

Anfahrt

1. No Metromover or Metrorail stop within walking distance; the nearest is Coconut Grove (Metrorail), about 3.1 km away, so plan on a bus, a ride or a car. Metrobus stops at Southwest 8th Street & Southwest 34th Avenue, 1 minute away. Parking, according to Google: a paid lot, a free lot and free street parking.
