The Best Croquetas In Miami, Ranked

"Price Per Croqueta: $1.59 Before you break out the pitchforks, please understand that we made a total of five trips here. Because, like you, we were under the impression that these were the best croquetas in Miami. And they’re close—absolutely still an incredible fritter. The masa is a family secret with mixed-in herbs that give these croquetas a unique tanginess. But the breading can sometimes be weak enough to see their green strands peek through like veins under thin skin. We recommend going in the morning when they’re more likely to be crunchy brown shotgun shells filled with a rich and savory masa that always hits the mark." - virginia otazo
