Great food. Try the Piquillos, the Mango Mojitos (they are awesome) and the South Beach snapper! Fabulous service! Will go back soon. more

Yuca used to be a good spot on Lincoln Road but no more. Service was horrible and food was only average (if that). For the price, anyone can do way better in South Beach! Skip it! more

Had just arrived in South Beach and took a walk from the Gansevoort. Somehow found the Lincoln Rd Mall by chance and decided to take a chance when we saw the menu outside. It was the first time we were asked how the salmon should be prepared. Salmon?!!! Man, I was wondering how good it would be if they paid... more

I recently visited Yuca with my girlfriend and a few friends and came away angry at having spent considerable coin for an underwhelming meal. The server was unhelpful and gave a terrible wine recommendation. What a rip off for bland wine! The same can be said for the entrees. The best part of the meal was my appetizer and watching... more

Terrible - they spilt our red wine and then didn't get a new bottle. They then tried to charge for the full price! The food was pretty rubbish and I definately wouldn't eat here again. more

We spent the day in South Beach on a quest for good Cuban cuisine. We had a late lunch at Puerto Sagua (700 Collins) and the food was fantastic but they were out of empanadas. So later while walking on Lincoln Ave. we found Yuca. They had an Empanada Sampler for $12.95. I thought it was a little pricey but... more
