El Exquisito

It’s become one of Miami’s most famous ventanitas thanks to a well-placed stock photograph that features its instantly recognizable coffee window. Situated in the heart of Little Havana—next to the landmark Tower Theatre and across the street from famed Ball & Chain and Azucar Ice Cream Company—El Exquisito is the neighborhood’s go-to spot for solid Cuban food. Find all the classics in typical, oversize portions. Every day brings a different stew special like Wednesday’s ajiaco, a delicious corpse-reviving, kitchen-sink Cuban soup.
