Top 5 Cuban Sandwiches in Miami

Hi guys! This is David of David’s Been Here.com and I hope you’re hungry because today I’m teaming up with Triposo to show you the top 5 Cuban sandwiches in Miami.
Triposo is a travel app that I’ve used in my travels to find hotels, restaurants, sights and activities. I love that I can create my own city guides and that it works offline so I don’t have to worry about data charges. Today I’m using it in my hometown of Miami to search for the best Cuban sandwiches in the city!
As you know Miami has a huge Cuban-American community, and here, people take their Cuban sandwiches very seriously.
First stop is Versailles, the most famous Cuban restaurant in the world. It’s is a family-owned restaurant since 1971 and it’s located on Calle Ocho. For decades Versailles has been ground zero for the Cuban-American exile community and a gathering point for anti-Castro protests.
This is also the place to come for classic Cuban cuisine.
Nicole Valls, a 3rd generation owners explain’s what a Cuban sandwich is and how they put their’s together.
I personally like eating my Cuban sandwich with a cafesito, a very strong Cuban coffee!
Next up were heading to El Rey de las Fritas, also on Calle Ocho. A frita isn’t like a typical Cuban sandwich, but it is a sandwich and its Cuban so I’m into it!
Angelina the owner tells us that a frita is a burger with Cuban flavors. Their ingredients are a secret! They also add onions and fries ontop!
Follow me as I continue along Calle Ocho to Sarussi Subs, which is also mentioned by the Triposo App as having an awesome Cuban sandwich.
Sarussi Subs has been around for over 50 years and has been featured on Travel Channel’s Man v. Food. You better come hungry to this place because I hear their Cuban sandwich is enormous!
Now we head to nearby Downtown Miami to see what’s cooking at Sparky’s Roadside Barbecue. Here they call it the “Ex-Patriate” Sandwich.
Hans the owner explains to us that the secret to their Cuban sandwich is that they cure, roast and sauté the pork!
Last but not least my Triposo app is recommending Cane a Sucre, which means “Sugarcane” in French. This place puts a French twist on the classic Cuban sandwich.
Mark the manager breaks down the ingredients they use. The biggest difference is that they use a French baguette and aioli.
Now you’ve experienced Miami’s top 5 Cuban sandwich spots. You can get this and many more mini guides on the Triposo Travel App. Get Triposo today in the app store or in the Google Play store for iOS or Android.

You should have tried the Pan con Lechon at "La Carreta", there's nothing like It! That is to me, my favorite Cuban of sandwiches!!!
I love those guava pastries with the cappuccino.
that mustard on the sandwish at about 4:00 looks like the aji chombo sauce we use in Panama. ( which uses mustard seed in it)
I've been getting Cuban sandwiches every weekend now and nothing has topped Sedano's supermarket Cuban sandwich at lunch time 12-1pm the pork is so fresh, I haven't tried the ones mentioned in this video but I looked em up on yelp and none at 5 stars
CRUNCH, CRUNCH, CRUNCH, CRUNCH....CRUNCH!!!!!

THANKS FOR SHARING. TRIPOSSO SHOULD BE NO WHERE NEAR RECOMMENDING CUBAN SANDWICHES. WHAT A JOKE. A TRADITIONAL CUBAN SANDWICH IS NOT BE BE MESSED WITH, CUBAN BREAD, ROASTED PORK (NOT PULLED) HAM, MUSTARD, PICKLES, SWISS CHEESE (NOT MONTERREY JACK) AND A NICE AND HOT PRESS . GREAT VID AS ALWAYS.

Miami has a huge amount of cuban culture, but the best cuban sandwiches are in Tampa. No sweet glaze or sauces, mayo, none of that is proper. :)

They put salami on their Cuban sandwiches in Tampa because they’re mixed with Italians. The Cuban sandwiches in Tampa aren’t considered True Cuban sandwiches in that sense.

@@darrtrubb no, the Cuban sandwich got popular in Tampa. The first version of the Cuban sandwich was made by the Tainos in Cuba. They made roasted pork sandwiches when the Spaniards brought flour & pork to Cuba. The first Cuban immigrants brought a version of it to Key west. As they migrated north in search of jobs they arrived at the cigar factories in Tampa. They intermingled with the German & Italian immigrants. That’s how the Cuban sandwich ended up with Swiss cheese, salami, & pickles. The Cubans in Miami don’t have the Italian influence, therefore do not put salami in their Cubanos.

Cuban sandwiches in Miami aren't quit right. I prefer the original from Tampa. The cuban sandwich in Tampa was a staple of the city before Miami had a cuban population. Many decades later when Cubans came to Miami the new Miami version kinda devolved from the authentic version.
I’ll go for the last one...baguette
Versailles is to me the original Cuban sandwich!! Tampa didn't hold a candle to it!!!

I'm sure to get hate and disagreements but, the last Two sandwiches are not Cubans, they're pork sandwiches (pan con lechon). Yes I get that ham is pork, but it has a different texture and a different taste.

Genoa salami was introduced by the Italians in Ybor city. As the Cubans and Italians mixed cultures the Salami was introduced into the sandwich. That’s why the Cubans in Miami don’t use it, nor mayo.

Been to Miami for a wedding went to a few Miami/Cuban restaurants unfortunately you are greeted with a not so warm reception from the Cuban locals. I'm of Greek descent so no hate love all just saying from experience.

Sorry to see the bastardization of true Cuban sandwiches but I guess it is just inevitable when the old folks die off. I once got served Steak-ums and Manwich sauce as Ropa Vieja.
How come I can't hear out of my right ear...........
alioli? It's aioli.
This Cubanos are musty
She going to make a review about Cuban sandwiches they make it about Cuban sandwiches sarussi is not considered a Cuban sandwich Versailles Cuban sandwich sucks so does that caretta same owner if you want the best Cuban sandwich in Miami go to the beach Puerto sagua been there for 50 years and it's by far the best Cuban sandwich in Miami ask for Javier the old man with white hair
The fact that panini bread is on the thumbnail proves that Miami has absolutely no idea what an actual Cuban sandwich is. If you want to call it the Miami sandwich that’s fine, but don’t call it a Cuban unless it’s made in Tampa, and not from a tourist trap that puts onions and tomato on it, Try Aguila in Tampa, or from La Segunda and tell me that those aren’t what an actual Cuban sandwich is
You missed the best
I know I'm late to the party but seriously??? All these places that claim to make "their versions" of Cuban sandwiches are just making sandwiches. They are NOT Cuban sandwiches! Anyone who says "their version" is NOT Cuban, they're only riding the coattails of OUR culture. Once you change something so much that it no longer resembles the original version, CALL IT SOMETHING ELSE!
Dude cant handle spice puts sandwich down after 2nd bite bro at least be able to handle the food
