From the moment you step inside, the inviting atmosphere envelops you like a warm hug. The owner, Carlos, and his wife, Carmen, epitomize hospitality, welcoming guests with genuine smiles and an eagerness to share their culinary heritage.

Highlighted dishes include the ropa vieja and picadillo, both lauded by customers as simply irresistible. The lechon is another standout, sure to satisfy any craving for tender, succulent pork.

Genesis Love encapsulates the experience perfectly, expressing how the food not only satisfies but also evokes a sense of belonging, making even non-Cubans feel at home.
But it’s not just about the food; the ambiance and the personal touch elevate your dining experience. Steve Wright shares his delight in the quaint nature of the restaurant, where staff treat you like family, ensuring each guest leaves with a smile and a satisfied palate. Whether you're indulging in carne asada, masas de puerco, or the generous sides of arroz congri and tostones, each bite bursts with flavor that is both traditional and comforting.
In summary, Casa Carlos Restaurant is not merely a place to eat; it's a haven for both food lovers and those seeking a genuine experience infused with warmth and kindness. With a menu offering meticulously prepared dishes and an ambiance that feels just like home, it’s no wonder customers can't wait to return.

“ Highly recommend this restaurant. Food and staff are great. Food is fresh and home made. Carlos and Carmen are very humble and amazing. They make you feel like their family. Take out weekly meals are also awesome! My son love their bread! Carmen always has his bread ready when picking up the food. You won't regret visiting them. 10 stars! ”
“ Great Cuban food. Had dinner here one night and had to come back for breakfast. We would definitely come back. Hubby was a little disappointed in the grits but I hate grits so no problem for me. ”

“ 10 stars ⭐. This would be the best Cuban food found anywhere in Miami. All freshly prepared, made to order meals with fresh ingredients of high quality. I want to try absolutely everything on the menu and would eat here 5 days a week if possible. The owner works the front of the restaurant and ensures every order is perfect and every customer is greeted and welcomed. If you want fast food, don’t come here. If you want average meals , don’t come here. If you want to be ignored and treated like a number, don’t come here. ”
“ This place is amazing. The restaurant is very quaint and the staff treated us just like family. Even the owner came by several times to check on us. The food was outstanding. We had the carne asada and masas de puerco with sides of white rice, arroz congri, and tostones. The portions were very generous and the preparation was excellent. Everything was bursting with flavor. ”
