Service is fast and pleasant. Food is great and prices even better. One of the best steak sandwiches in Hialeah. For breakfast lunch or dinner I highly recommend it.
A few days ago, we were coming back into Miami late, after a long drive. Miami today is very different than it was two decades ago, with very few options for late night dining. Morro Castle is one of those few options. We went out of our way and into Hialeah to grab a bite. I have to say that on all fronts I was pleasantly surprised. I had a grilled chicken breast with congri and tostones. Everything was fresh and made to order. It wasn't a large portion, but it also was very reasonably priced. It tasted great. My son had the large pan con bistec, so that was great also. We ended the meal with a hot serving of freshly fried churros. The dining room itself is nothing to write home about and the place could use a good deep cleaning. That said though, it was five star food in a three star environment. Four stars for a good late night bite.
Love this place too. Great food, good service! Easy on your pockets and yummy in yourbelly!!
I recently visited with my boys and as always they enjoy eating pechuga de pollo a la plancha, arroz blanco y papitas fritas along with sopa de pollo to drink Jupiña. I ordered pan con bistec and to drink jugo de mango. We were so hungry I forgot to take pictures of the food. Lol
The food was really good and a nice Cuban ambiance . Great place for the family. Must try .
Morro Castle never disappoints! I had the steak with rice, fries, salad, and a side of sweet plantains--everything was a perfect 10/10. The flavors reminded me of grandma's cooking, warm and comforting. I ended the meal with churros, vanilla ice cream, and an exceptionally rich espresso. If you're craving affordable authentic Cuban food in a cozy setting, this is the spot to visit!
Since I was little this was the pace for the best late night food. The service was always older Cuban ladies who knew you by name or they know your family. One of the places I can bring my kids to have them immersed into their Cuban culture because of the atmosphere. Feel like home.
I have so many great things to say about this restaurant. I have been coming here for over 10 years and it never disappoints. Perfect spot to get a delicious cuban breakfast and the prices make it even better!!! Always very clean and waitresses are always very attentive, making you feel like home.
