A new Cuban food hall, offering a variety of food stands, has debuted in the neighborhood. The fresh addition to South Beach, called El Palacio de los Jugos, is located at 555 Jefferson Ave. It's part of a venerable Miami chain known for its ready-to-eat foods and fresh-squeezed juices.
Among the sections inside, you'll find a juice stand, a coffee kiosk and a sandwich stall, among others. Be on the lookout for items like paella, tamales, Cuban sandwiches, fried yucca, cassava chips, yellow rice with chorizo, chickpea stew with chorizo, milk flan, rice pudding and lamb stew, among many others. (See the full selection here.)
El Palacio de los Jugos has garnered rave reviews thus far, with a five-star rating out of eight reviews on Yelp.
Janel M., who was among the first Yelpers to review the new spot on June 15, wrote, "Once you walk inside, it's so colorful, bright and huge ... there are fruits and desserts to choose from all over the floor plan. My first day there I tried their Cuban coffee and, of course, in the heart of Miami you can't go wrong."
And Elisa M. wrote, "The vast selection was amazing: chicken, fish, beef and veggies with different types of rice. My favorite was their juice. I ordered a small carrot juice for $4. Best price around here."
Head on over to check it out: El Palacio de los Jugos is open from 8 a.m.–9 p.m. on Monday-Saturday and 8 a.m.–8 p.m. on Sunday.
