El Palacio de los Jugos
Best Fruit Stand & Kitchen in Miami · FL
Juice, chicharron, and pure Miami
El Palacio de los Jugos has been a raucous, only-in-Miami market and kitchen since 1977, its original West Flagler location piled high with tropical fruit and lined with steam-table counters. You order fresh jugos naturales — mamey, guanábana, sugarcane — alongside heaping plates of lechón, moros, and yuca.
Part fruit stand, part cafeteria, part Cuban-Miami crossroads, El Palacio serves some of the city's most authentic criollo cooking to a crowd that eats standing at the counter — an institution of working Miami.
