Editorial Review for Versailles – by Citysearch Staff

In Short
The happy-go-lucky atmosphere in this non-descript dining room is fueled by low prices and the thick garlic aroma. Waiters in guayaberas serve groups of college students, families and pre-bar hoppers. The house favorite garlic chicken in citrus marinade anchors the Cuban menu. Roast pork and salted, bay leaf-infused black beans run a close second to the famous fowl. Order everything with a side of sweet fried plantains.

Insider Tips

Know Before You Go

Come early if you want the paella because it's often gone by 9pm and can take up to 45 minutes to prepare.

Save Time

Don't let those long lines deter you--food is whisked out rapidly, so diners get in and out rapidly, too.

This is not one of the better locations. The one on Venice and the one in Manhattan Beach are alot better. Service could have been a whole lot better.

Pros: Good food

Cons: Bad service

The fried plaintains are so good! They cut them in pieces about the size of your finger and they're not greasy at all. Very sweet and delicious. I've ordered the shrimp and rice (average), the pork sandwich (meat good, bread not good), the ham croquettes (NASTY), and the chicken soup (average). The restaurant has absolutely no ambience and crappy tables and chairs. If they got rid of the fried plaintains I would never eat there again.

Editor's Review

Cuban-style food is a hit with the masses, thanks to an almost-legendary garlic chicken dish.  See the full editorial review.
