Cuban cafe with fresh juices, legendary sandwiches & coffee
"You know how when sandwiches are cut into triangles, the first corner bite is always the best bite? Well, every bite of the cuban sandwich at this South Beach ventanita is like that. They cut their sandwich thinner than any cuban sandwich we’ve seen around Miami. We’re very bad at geometry, but we believe it could be a scalene triangle? Or perhaps an extreme isosceles-obtuse? Of course, it’s not just the shape that makes this great. There’s a generous portion of roast pork, a healthy amount of cheese, and Las Olas’ location makes it a perfect lunch to bring to the beach." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
"Las Olas is our favorite ventanita in South Beach. And like all good ventanitas, you can order Cuban coffee, croquetas, and one of the best Cuban sandwiches in Miami here. The fresh juice is a good thing to order too, especially if you're nursing a hangover. There are some tables inside the small restaurant, but it’s also a solid to-go option if you're on the way to the beach." - ryan pfeffer, mariana trabanino, virginia otazo
"Las Olas is a solid Cuban ventanita and cafeteria in South Beach. And they have the holy trinity of great post-beach things to consume: cafecito (for energy), fresh juice (for hydration), and one of Miami’s best Cuban sandwiches (for deliciousness). Consume all of the above and you will feel as happy as the seagull who stole that bag of potato chips right out of your hand." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo
"Noted for its small-window "ventanita," which sells Cuban-style coffee drinks to-go—recommended as an authentic, grab-and-run Cuban coffee experience." - Allison Ramirez
"Las Olas is a ventanita and cafeteria in South Beach. You can come here to eat (we love their Cuban sandwich) but if you’re on the hunt for caffeine, they do a great Cuban coffee, such as coladas, cortaditos, or a classic cafe con leche. It’s mostly a to-go spot, but there is some seating inside." - ryan pfeffer
