On a recent weekend in Miami, in search of authenic Cuban food and following the advice of many reviewers on the internet, I took a LONG taxi ride to Versailles. Let me tell you... it IS the Denny's of Cuban cuisine... Absolutely terrible, Denny's-esque ambiance. That being said, the flank steak, black beans and rice were, in fact, great. And cheap. But... worst mojito I have ever had, very average empanadas. Yes, the food is good, authenic and cheap, but it is a long drive for a less-than-pleasant dining experience. Perhaps late night, after many drinks, the cafeteria-stlye dining room is less disappointing.
Pros: good food
Cons: terrible ambiance, bad mojitos, far from South Beach
