If you’re looking for good Cuban food in Miami that isn’t a tourist trap—go ahead and add Cubata to your list.

I stopped by this low-key gem and everything was 😍

The Cuban sandwich was buttery, crispy, and packed with flavor (one of the best I’ve had—and I don’t say that lightly). The plantain chips? Light, salty, and the perfect little crunch on the side.

I also tried both their mojito and the mocktail version—because balance—and both were delicious! If you know me, you know mojitos are my favorite, so that’s saying a lot!

Bonus: the service was quick and friendly, and the vibe was casual but cute. Definitely one of those spots that feels like a local fave.

What I’d recommend:
• Cuban sandwich (trust me)
• Plantain chips
• Mojito or mocktail mojito
• Come during lunch or early dinner to skip the crowd

Save this spot for your next Miami food crawl—and tag your foodie bestie who’s always down for a good meal.

✨ Local gem: Chameleon Café in Akron, OH

Brunch with my girl Rachel led us to Chameleon Café, and y’all… I think we found a winner!

This cozy, colorful spot is serving up serious flavor and good vibes.

What we ordered:
🥐 Chicken Salad Croissant – SO good, but a little messy. Worth it.

🥗 Roasted Sweet Potato & Apple Salad – Meh. Needed crispy shallots and a tart apple for some balance.

🥪 Cilantro Lime Chicken Panini – Rachel’s fave! And their best-selling item!

🍓 Strawberry Sparkling Lemonade w/ Popping Boba – Bomb! But if you don’t like sweet drinks, ask for just one pump of syrup.

Final thoughts? The food is solid, the vibes are chill, and I’d definitely come back. If you’re in Akron, put this spot on your list!

📍 Save this for your next foodie adventure!
