Lass Cuban Cafe

Very nice staff. Although service was average speed, the food was tasty. I had grilled chicken breast with rice and black beans. I will return to try their breakfast service.

Just bought the picadillo completa to go… they forgot the black beans! They don’t answer the phone either.

I work across the street, and I eat lunch at Lass all the time. Yes, it’s a bit greasy, but the food is good. The portions are large, and the staff is friendly. Miami Gardens is slim pickings for restaurants, and this is one of the better places I’ve eaten.

Seeing their sign as I drive by almost daily, I decided to give it a try. Open 7 days a week it is a small place in a large office building in its southeast corner. They have their own outside entrance. Their menu pretty well covers the Cuban cuisine and the prices are right. I had a Cuban sandwich combo which included a canned soda $ 6.99. The people are very friendly and the food looks to be fresh. I will be back.

I have been here several times for breakfast takeout. I must say a $ 2.99 breakfast that includes two eggs, meat and Cuban toast isn’t a bad deal! I really, really like their café con leche and they always ask if I want it light, medium or strong. They have redecorated since I was last here and it looks good and fresh! The service is good and one of the waitresses is always so nice and actually remembered me after only a couple of times of coming to this establishment. If you are in the area and want an affordable bite for breakfast, lunch or a really good café con leche stop by!

I’ve tried this spot a handful of times. The place is really clean and updated décor. The lady is really nice who works there. The food is really good as I’ve tried the breakfast sandwich and there café con leche is amazing. I think they use ghirardelli Carmel in it. The only slight knock on them is I find there croquettes and empanadas to be a bit greasy. But definitely recommend this place for a more authentic Cuban cuisine.

Lass, Miami Garden’s Cuban café is definitely evolving. They’ve changed the appearance of the place since opening. And they have added delivery services in their new Lass Mobile. The food is tasty and I love that they know what I like go order. My only problem with them is they are extremely slow. I’m usually running when I go to Lass. And having
to stand and wait cuts into my time. I really would prefer to come here, but because they are slow, it really makes DD across the street far more appealing.
Lass if I could give some advice or suggest a recommendation, I would strongly suggest hiring another person for the morning rush so that you could get folks in and out quicker. I think your business would grow leaps and bounds even more.

I tried the Cuban sandwich and mamey shake, both were delicious and cooked/​prepared to perfecto. Our server Barbara was awesome!!! Great, great place to visit! I’m giving it four starts only because it’s not kids friendly, they didn’t have any high chairs.

I first discovered this restaurant 9 days ago and had their $ 5 breakfast before going on a job interview. I had a wonderful experience this morning and everyone seemed to be well. I had their Sausage and Eggs with Toast with a side of Coffee and Milk. To say the least, it was a good experience and left me with the impression that if I got the job, I’d definitely be frequenting it more.
I ended up receiving the job and the next morning I came in for a Guava and Cheese pastry with the Coffee and Milk. It was then that I started to realize that the cup of coffee that costs $ 1.69 was a 4 oz water cup, and that it definitely was not worth the price (the coffee isn’t to any superb standards, it’s simply good). Nontheless, this was a good experience even though I really felt like I over-​paid for something so simple.
I hadn’t eaten there since that morning, until today. I ordered their Pork and Rice and was told that I could only get one side, a choice between Fried Yuka (that i got to sample. and it was cold) and then the fried Plantain. Being a lover of both, but moreso fried plantains, I went with it (especially since the Yuka was actually cold). I ended up being $ 8 for literally 3 spoons of rice and beans, 3 pieces of pork, and 3 pieces of plantain. No sauce, no gravy, and the rice was greasy.
Their reason for not allowing me to choose between the other sides (red beans, black beans, and a tamale) was because the Rice and Pork already had beans in it. But these were lima beans with greasy rice. I immediately began to regret my choice in lunch, but I didn’t want to come off as cheap or a pain in the butt, so I dined in anyway.
The lunch was a bit ironic. While the rice and beans were greasy (and not in a saucy way), the pork was clearly over-​cooked, and dry. It also tasted very fresh on the inside, as if only the outside had been seasoned and it was clear it never marinated. I ended up throwing away most of it because even with water everything was so dry that it was difficult to enjoy it, much less eat it.
Needless to say, with working closeby, I was interested in their $ 30/​week catering option, but after today’s experience, I highly doubt I’ll ever return to this restaurant or even recommend it, though the breakfast i had was a good experience.
