Best Cuban food in Miami. I bring all of my friends and family who come to visit from out of town and they always love it. Don’t miss out on the flan. BOTH the coconut and the traditional they’re amazing. Love Caja!!

I absolutely love this restaurant! As a Cuban, I'm really impressed by the modern twist they've put on some classic dishes. My favorites are the vaca frita bowl and the flan! Everything I've tried has been delicious, and I find myself coming here every week.

This cozy little spot is perfect for enjoying Cuban Latin snacks. We visited for an early dinner and ordered the disco volador with vaca frita, along with a heaping side of plantain chips, croquetas with queso manchego, and shrimp tacos. We highly recommend trying the aioli as a dip for the chips—it really enhances the flavor! View menu

My first visit this afternoon and had a delicious meal! We ordered the special of the day which were Croquettes de Lechon! Amazing taste with a hint of lime. They definitely need to add them to the main menu stat ? Also had a the refreshing Guava Lemonade not too sweet which was great! For my main dish I ordered the Tamal Cubano which was delicious. Looking forward to going back again to try some other sandwiches and desserts.

I had Caja Caliente cater my bachelorette party, and it was fantastic! The food was absolutely delicious, and the staff was incredibly accommodating. I had to consider some dietary restrictions within my group and had many questions, but their team was responsive and extremely helpful in guiding me to select the right dishes and portion sizes. The food was also great as leftovers throughout the weekend. I highly recommend dining at Caja Caliente or using their catering services!
