Best Frita Cubanas List in Miami & Beyond

PIKADIYO Restaurant 468 x 60

La Frita Cubana, or just Frita, holds an exceptional place in my heart. If you’ve never eaten one and are a fan of Burgers, you should probably get with the program.

The Frita is a regional South Florida specialty. Large Cuban communities like Miami & Tampa, Florida, and parts of California & New Jersey are the best areas to find Fritas. On some menus across the U.S., the sandwich goes by Cuban Burger or Hamburger.

My book All About the Burger has the entire history of La Frita Cubana if you want to dig deeper.

Best Frita Cubana

This Best Frita list was not just thrown together throughout one night. I retried all the Fritas here on the list and many others who didn’t make it. I take this Top Frita list very seriously because I know that folks do indeed use them as guides.

One side note, if the restaurant did not make its julienne potatoes, then they were never even under consideration for best No canned potato sticks were allowed.
