Sanguich De Miami (Sandwich Shop), Miami

Sanguich de Miami on Calle Ocho is reportedly Miami鈥檚 top spot for a Cuban sandwich. Being in business since 2017, this quaint counter-service restaurant has turned the humble process of sandwich-making into an art form. Alongside classic Cuban sandwiches, it offers a choice of made-to-order batidos 鈥� thick and creamy milkshakes so good they could probably broker peace talks...

Initially housed in a shipping container, this sleek 750-square-foot restaurant boasts its own indoor seating for 25. Inspired by Cuba鈥檚 early 1900s Spanish architecture, it gleams with brass accents, floating quartz-inlaid tables, tiles all over the place, and decorative walls adorned with reeded molding. There鈥檚 even a ventanita (the so-called "little window" walk-up counter) for locals who can鈥檛 be bothered with doors 鈥� because good coffee and gossip wait for no one...

Here, everything is made in-house 鈥� the ham is cured, the pork is brined, the pickles are pickled, and the mustard is as artisanal as it sounds. The only thing they don鈥檛 make themselves is the crusty bread 鈥� but even that is custom-baked in Homestead to their exact recipe. In other words, no corner-cutting, no shortcuts, no apologies...

The menu has been unchanged since day one and is a love letter to Cuba in six sandwiches, namely: the iconic Cubano, the pan con lech贸n (stuffed with a suckling piglet), and the indulgent pan con croqueta (or 鈥渂read with croquette鈥�). The lineup is completed by a few 鈥渞ebels鈥� such as the pan con bistec (with slow-cooked steak and fried string potatoes), croqueta preparadas, and cream cheese-filled Elena Ruzes.

Add some plantain fries and five kinds of mojo sauce, and you鈥檙e officially in sandwich heaven. Finish with a batido milkshake 鈥� maybe mamey, guava, or cream cheese 鈥� and you鈥檒l understand why this place has the locals lined up in 90-degree heat without complaint. Because the best Cubano in Miami doesn鈥檛 just feed you 鈥� it flirts with you first...
