Paradise Found: A Cuban Fiesta in Marathon (And We’re Still Dreaming!)

Alright, amigos! Buckle up, because SoFloDining just stumbled upon a slice of paradise, and we’re still buzzing. We’re talking about Paradise Cuban Restaurant in Marathon, and trust us, it’s more than just a catchy name – it’s a full-blown culinary adventure!

Doris and I, the dynamic duo behind SoFloDining, pulled up to 2603 Overseas Hwy, Marathon, FL 33050, and immediately felt the laid-back vibes of the Florida Keys wash over us. The ambiance is pure Keys – relaxed, welcoming, and bursting with the promise of deliciousness.

We started with the essentials: Doris, bless her heart, went for the vibrant Orange Fanta, while I, always the traditionalist, opted for a classic Coca-Cola. Cheers to that! Then, the real magic began.

First up: the Cuban Sandwich. Let me tell you, folks, this isn’t just any Cuban sandwich. This is the real deal. Layer upon glorious layer of ham, succulent roast pork, melty Swiss cheese, tangy pickles, and a perfectly balanced slather of mustard, all pressed between slices of that crusty, unforgettable Cuban bread. Forget the fancy stuff!  This sandwich is pure, unadulterated, heavenly perfection. Each bite was a symphony of flavors and textures. Honestly, it’s the kind of sandwich you dream about.

But wait, there’s more! We also had to experience the Frita, that Legendary Cuban Burger. Picture this: a patty that’s a glorious blend of ground beef and chorizo, infused with that signature smoky, spicy goodness. Topped with a mountain of crispy potato wisps (think the best French fries ever made, times a million!) Add a generous drizzle of ketchup, and it was an absolute masterpiece. This isn’t just a burger; it’s a culinary revelation. The flavors danced on our tongues, and we practically fought over the last bite. (Okay, maybe I let Doris win…this time.)

Now, listen up, because our tastebuds are already planning our next visit. We’re talking about the Ham Croquetas, those crispy, golden nuggets of deliciousness that everyone raves about. And the Vaca Frita, that shredded flank steak masterpiece, is calling our names. We’re practically drooling just thinking about it!

But the magic of Paradise Cuban Restaurant goes beyond the food. This place has a history. They have carved out a little piece of Cuba right in the heart of Marathon. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and filled with the sounds of happy diners. It’s the perfect spot to unwind, share stories, and savor the flavors of the Keys.

SoFloDining officially declares Paradise Cuban Restaurant a MUST-VISIT destination! From the authentic Cuban cuisine to the laid-back atmosphere, this place has it all. Trust us, you will love it! Tell your friends, pack your bags, and get ready for a culinary experience you won’t soon forget.

We’re already planning our return!
