Verdict: Better than Da Tang Zhen Wei, huge portions. 2️⃣ Puerto Sagua (Cuban) 🌟🌟🌟🌟 📍 South Beach | 💰 $30/person Stars: Oxtail stew, Cuban sandwich (press it!). Skip: Seafood rice (too salty). 3️⃣ Little Havana Restaurant (Cuban) 🌟🌟🌟🌟✨ 📍 Little Havana | 💰 $35/person Heavy Hitter: Mixed meat platter (feeds 2+). Truth: More authentic than Puerto Sagua, but farther. 4️⃣ U Know Korean Bistro 🌟🌟🌟🌟 📍 Downtown | 💰 $25/person MVP: Spicy pork trotters (sticky, fiery, addictive). Pass: Bibimbap (bland). 5️⃣ Joe’s Stone Crab 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 📍 South Beach | 💰 $60/person Classics: Stone crab claws + Key lime pie (tart perfection). Pro Tip: Go at 3 PM to skip lines. 6️⃣ Miu’s Tea (Bubble Tea) 🌟🌟🌟🌟 📍 Multiple locations | 💰 $6/drink Best Sip: Mango pomelo sago (50% sugar). ⚫ MISS LIST (Skip These) 1️⃣ Da Tang Zhen Wei (Chinese) ❌ Issues: Oily dry pot, bland skewers, overpriced. Eat Instead: Hi Pot or Sichuan spots. 2️⃣ HuTong (Upscale Sichuan) ❌ Reality: $50+/person for forgettable flavors, empty dining room. Only Plus: COVID-safe (no crowds). 3️⃣ Other “Meh” Picks CVI.CHE 105: Decent ceviche, slow service. Azucar Ice Cream: Too sweet, melts fast. 💡 Pro Tips ✔ Cuban Face-Off: Little Havana > Puerto Sagua (more legit). ✔ Asian Food Ranked: Hi Pot > U Know Korean > Da Tang (avoid). ✔ Sweet Finale: Joe’s pie + Miu’s tea = happy ending. #MiamiEats #NoRegrets #SpicyPigFeet4Life
