Glenn Lindgren: Enriqueta's was once a little known spot in Miami, but with a recent feature in the Miami Herald and a mention in Food and Wine, this little hole-in-the-wall joint has hit the big time.
Jorge Castillo: We've always known Enriqueta's as a great place to get a Cuban chicken sandwich – something you don't find everywhere, and never this good.
Glenn Lindgren: Enriqueta's is a funky dive with plastic seats and a lot of Formica. The excellent chicken sandwich – piled high with shoestring potatoes, lettuce, tomato, and grilled onions – goes for about $5.00.
Raúl Musibay: Add a side of plátanos maduros or yuca frita, café Cubano and a tip, and you have a great lunch for about $8.00.
Glenn Lindgren: The place is designed to turn out sandwiches to quickly satisfy the hunger of the masses who flock here each day for the great lunches and breakfasts.
Jorge Castillo: Their breakfast special at around $3.00 is a rare Miami bargain: you get eggs, ham, Cuban toast, café con leche, and a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice.
Glenn Lindgren: You won't find a cheaper Cuban place anywhere in Miami – at least not one with food this good!
Raúl Musibay: Hopefully, all the publicity won't go to their heads!
