OUR LOCATION

If historic Little Havana is the heart of Miami, then famed Calle Ocho (Eighth street) just south of our property is where you take its pulse.

 

These 10 square blocks are marked by the signature aroma of café cubano, the vibrant colors in the stores along Calle Ocho, locals playing dominos against a backdrop of murals at Maximo Gomez Park.

 

The area is renown for its authentic cuisine from not just Cuba but all of Latin America. Get a plate of lechon asado con platanitos maduros y congris (roast pork with fried plantains and rice and beans). Visit one of the many open-air lunch counters serving medianoche, sandwich cubano and empanadas. Cuban cafeterias share the street with Nicaraguan bakeries and Central American taquerías. Restaurants host traditional flamenco performances. The area’s montage of cultures is representative of the entire Western Hemisphere. Throughout the year a variety of festivals commemorate Miami's Hispanic heritage.

 

Little Havana abuts the Miami River and downtown Miami to the east (and Northwest 7th Street and Coral Way, to the north and south, respectively).
