Relax, Take 5 and have a Cortadito - the best one in downtown Miami BY: DAVEGARCIA[.]NET -- Las Palmas Cafeteria doesnt have the best dish presentation but it certainly has an authentic Cuban Cuisine and homemade flavor to their menu. If you are hungry and on a budget Las Palmas is by far the most economical place in downtown Miami to have a full, great meal at an awesome price. Tasty and nice size portions are served. When I worked in downtown Miami, this was my favorite place to enjoy a break in the day and do a little people watching while enjoying my coffee. It is neither spacious nor fancy. If you do want to grab lunch here be prepared to wait at least 10 to 15 minutes, but they do serve you a slice of Cuban bread toast with butter while you wait.
