Larios on the Beach, Gloria Estefan’s lively Cuban eatery, is more tourist-driven than most of the Cuban restaurants embedded throughout South Beach. However, with large platters of black beans and rice and a mojito recognized as one of Ocean Drive’s best, even locals can enjoy a change of pace from the overly-chic-eclectic-fusion crowd every now and then and indulge in something a little more kitsch.
With a large selection of food, fast service, and salsa music booming over the Spanish / English conversations lingering nearby, it’s a great place for vacationers or the native south Floridians who find entertainment in the spectrum of Miami’s culture.
