La Carreta Mexican Restaurant ·$$

One of several locations all over Miami, including the international airport, this is the Cuban equivalent of an upscale American fast food chain. The selection of low-priced traditional fare is comprehensive, and the portions are generous. Service is fast and friendly. The atmosphere is extremely casual. Typical Cuban dishes are served: Palomilla Steak with Rice and Black Beans and a serving of Plantains, or the Cuban Sandwich and Flan for dessert.
