Time Out Miami

Islas Canarias Only one restaurant can make Miamians from all corners of Dade County drive into the deepest depths of West Kendall just for croquetas, and that’s Islas Canarias. They’re so popular, the Miami-Dade commission named an entire street after them. And though this is incontestably the restaurant’s flagship dish, this establishment has been whipping out impeccable family recipes since 1977, like their succulently garlicky palomilla hidden under a bed of glazed onions. Pair your main with a side of their arroz morro cooked with pork rinds, which you can also order at the café and bakery just a mile away. No time to eat in? The 26th Street location touts a drive-through where the number one order is, you guessed it, croquetas.
