Fresh, abundant Cuban food that didn't leave me feeling bloated the next day, like most restaurant food does! I'm blown away by the variety and quality. Don't sleep on the fish salads, those were my favorite part of the buffet. My only complaint is that I don't have 4 stomachs like a cow does so that I could keep eating. 😅

We visited this place today, for me it’s The best cuban buffet, ever, authentic cuban style, fresh, flavorful, salads, meat, tamales, seafood, pork, beef, soups, beans, and much more, clean and nice investment, drinks and desserts not included, but delicious, definitely I’m recommend to enjoy an original cuban food in USA

"Cuba Lives Restaurant "...I'm astonished, everything! and I'm saying that absolutely almost everything in this place and about this place it's down right to the money...from the cleanness of the parking lot to the many workers welcoming you to the readiness of the table to the waiter smiling at you while asking you...What would like to drink? to to the presentation of the inside Restaurant as well as the presentation of the food, temperature, cleanliness of the buffet table...they even have disposable gloves so the guests never have contact with ladders to serve your own food. For 2 hours time limit you will enjoy all you can eat buffet from delicious appetizers and salads (cold salad) to a wide variety of entries and dessert...and to top of all the prices are very competitive and affordable. Restroom are very clean even with a 90 percent of occupancy already...still very clean!. I love this place!!!

Great food and service is amazing. UPDATE: Second time there but not the last one.

The food was really nice too much noise but there were really a lot of people

Excellent food and super fresh ingredients. Not much variety at the buffet, but enough. The attention very careful the atmosphere ok but somewhat bustling for my taste. A showman enlivens the moment with recorded music and songs. I filled myself to the top. The price very well, although I went a weekend that is a little higher was ok.

We went for dinner and had a wonderful time! The place is very clean and staff is constantly wiping down the buffet. The food selection is great and delicious! The vibe at dinner was very lively with live music sprinkled in. Lastly the customer service was impeccable!

Food is excellent, service and atmosphere are definitely 5 stars. I love their buffet experience and quality and taste of the food.

Demonios si! Lo mejor! Unbelievable buffet here, including a Huge salad bar, giant hot bar, soups, breads, and everything you can possibly imagine! Place is sparkling clean and service was phenomenal! The buffet is kept fully stocked at all times!! The price is amazing, considering the quality and quantity of food provided. Thanks for such a wonderful place!

This is a must do in Hialeah....this place deserves a Gold Medal A++++ CUBAN FOOD BUFFET with very nice food and awesome flavors. The employees are very friendly and helpful definitely ill be back very soon.

They have the best "congri" and "fufu" that I have had in a long time. That was the worst beef steak, chicken steak and tostones I have had in a Cuban restaurant. The staff was not as attentive as they need to be. Only once did someone come to see if we needed anything. We had to ask for napkins and the lady was rude and seemed to be bothered even though she was standing one foot from us. Not a good experience. Will not return.

The foos is good, waiters services is OK. Went on lunch time on a weekend and it was extremly crowded but we dont have to wait for more than 15 min to be seated. For cuban food lovers this place is a blast because they are authentic cuban restaurant.

Inexpensive buffet and if you go during the week instead of the weekend or even for lunch it’s cheaper . We went on a Saturday night for dinner so it was $23 per person . The customer service was good , the food was good , the drinks were good , the dessert was good , & they had live music which I enjoyed. I would definitely go back I think it was worth the price. I’m also glad that they weren’t racist . I’ve been to some Spanish spots in Miami where they’ve made me feel uncomfortable but this one didn’t as well . Also when it’s your birthday they bring out a cake (that you have to pay for ) but they play instruments and sing to you which I thought was cute . If you’re trying to get to know somebody like a first date or something I wouldn’t recommend this spot for that at least on a Saturday night because it’s crowded and busy and the music/live music is loud so you can’t really hear the person across from you

The food is amazing!! Over 60 dishes, plus desserts, breads, sides and more. Haven't had some of the foods they offer since my teen years. Bread fruit, fish 5 ways, shrimp, "jambalaya" ,ribs, ceviche two ways, and sooo much more. Something for everyone guaranteed!!

Best Cuban food I've had in a long time. Service amazing I'm already planning a family outing here. Best restaurant in the area. Buffet food is not only fresh and delicious but there are infinite choices for any taste. Loooooove it

First time at Cuban buffet.Food is awesome. Variety to pick..tasty and fresh. The service is good as well...don't know why people complain about service.My table service was wonderful. I have to give this place five out of five stars.

It was such a great afternoon until the end when one of the servers became aggressive for no reason. We had enjoyed our lunch and stayed for many hours just chatting and conversing together, the food was delicious and nostalgic to eat, when we went to get the check we saw we were getting charged for the dinner fee rather than the lunch one that we had come in for, when we ask the server why that is, he says that because we stayed so long we had to pay the dinner fee, he had said this in an arrogant tone that we all noticed and became uncomfortable with, but brushed off. Later on as we were chatting one in our group hears that server tell the other servers to watch us because we were suspicious, as if he thought we would run out on the bill!!! it was so disrespectful, and offensive that it ruined the whole mood for us. It just not okay for anyone to do that, much less to guests who hadn't done anything, even if he was suspicious, for him to have been so rude from the get go was unprofessional and just plain discourteous. The other servers were nice and we had no issue with, just know if you go, that bulldog might still be there. That said, other than him, we had a nice time, definitely leave after eating if you don't want to randomly get charged the dinner fee tho 😂

Nice and clean....perfect music...in front door host y always kindly..keep going guys..food is delicious

Great food and service and for a good price. Amazing drinks too. Only “negative” side is the very loud live music that doesn’t let you talk with anyone at your table.

I wish I can give this place 0 stars . Went with my family and I will not be back ! The food tasted like it was cooked with old oil . Extremely loud music . The personal are chismeando the whole time & take forever to attend you. Honestly I’ll stick to the other Cuban buffets in Hialeah . Terrible time . NOT RECOMMEND!!!!

Went for mother's day and left extremely satisfied. Very courteous staff and very attentive. Gorgeous place with great food for a buffet restaurant. They have taken care of every detail even down to having plastic gloves for guests to put on before walking the line to grab their food. Will definitely be going back and recommending to everyone I know.
