If you in town from another state & wanna purchase authentic Cuban American gear (cigars, Gamboa, fedora hats, shirt, shoes) Calle Ocho walk of fame is the destination. Hand made & expect to be serviced properly & patiently. Learn a littl Spanish.

Its a Miami MUST! You have to visit both day and night, daytime you can find mostly elder people to play domino and chess and authentic souvenirs to buy, nighttime latin music comes out of the restaurants, and a lots of people strolling on the street. Beautiful old-timer theater, a Cuban walk of fame, authentic ice cream shop and an American glassed barbershop with the downtown skyscrapers in the background. It was an unbelievable experience to us!

Located in Little Havana, Miami a must visit fir any visitor. Lots of food and shopping with architecture that will transport you to the island. Everyone is friendly and the prices are quite friendly. Plenty of parking is available even street parking that I was able to get. The parking on the street requires you to download a phone app to pay but the app works great. An added bonus is the app alerts you when you spot is about to expire and you can add more time. There is a visitors center where they sell both walking tours and double decker bus tours with the open top deck. A great time to be had for adults of all ages.

Not so much the walk of Fame as just how special and alive this section of Calle Ocho is!! LOVED my tour with Miami Culinary Tours as well! JJ was a wonderful tour guide who grew up in the area and really knows the ins and outs.

Great place to know about cuban culture. You can enjoy domino games, chess and more. They stamped famous people names in the sidewalk. We can see Celia Cruz star and other famous latin singers.

I wish I was able to come before Covid hit, but still appreciated all the history of Calle Ocho and the local Cuban community. You must grab a cafecito here.

Visiting Calle Ocho Walk of Fame in Little Havana is like strolling in an open air museum. Everywhere smiling faces, everywhere helpful people ready to answer questions of a curious tourist and, of course, everywhere beautiful paintings. I loved discovering the traditional way of making Cuban cigar and the flavour of Cuban coffee served in small cups as well as the music. I definitely recommend Little Havana as a must visit in Miami

This was the heart of Little Havana. Did some walking and had some dinner at a local spot. Alot of shops were closed due to Covid......but we enjoyed the ambiance. There is alot of potential here for a late night ...over all good visit.

Calle Ocho was exactly what I expected, a busy street full of life, music, great food and above all culture!! As a Latina I felt so proud and so welcomed, it was like being home...all the street art and monuments in honor gave me a sense of pride and the people are all so nice. My husband and I tour on our own but I did see lots of interesting tours. Either way is definitely a fun place to visit!

Nice long strip, filled with the beauty of Latin America. Cuban family owned business up and down the strip. Hand rolled cigars on any side of the street. Good food and a great lively vibe. Recommended for anyone who is interested in the beauty of Cuban latin American culture.

This place was so lively! Lots of food options. Enjoyed the atmosphere at Domino Park. Very cool to watch the elders trash talking while enjoying a friendly game. Check out the Visitors Center and you can try samples of Cuban coffee. Strong but tasty. This area is definitely an experience!

Wonderful place to visit. Very touristy and many cigar shops. Good restaurants and the best icecream I have had in a long time. Visit the market and traditional dominoes hangout. Parking can be challenging so get there early or park down the street (4 stars).

I was just excited to be on Calle Ocho! Theres a lot to do here. Play some dominoes, smoke a cigar, drink a cafecito, or watch all the tour groups go by. Seriously, though, take a tour and learn about the impact Cuban culture has had on Miami.

Full of history. Good place to possibly bring a relative and have them walk along you telling you about each name on the stars... Also they have chickens. How many? Youll have to see for yourself.

Go for the experience but dont need to spend more than 1-2 hours there. The walk of fame gets no love. Just dirty stars on the floor with names scattered about in no particular order. Just a strange mishmash of random Latin actors/singers of yesterday. Time for a renovation and revitalization of the walk of fame, new artists, better location of the stars and make them nicer.

Its interesting to see a walk of Fame in the middle of downtown Little Havana, Florida. Wasnt expecting that! If your from Latin roots its a big deal. Youll recognize some or most of the names. If not... It may not seem like such a big deal. The area is still a great place to visit & learn about the history of the residents there & have some great Cuban food.

If you ever want to know what its like experiencing a small part of Cuba, come to Calle Ocho! This is an amazing place to visit. The sidewalk is filled with walk of fame stars with several small shops that line the street with authentic Cuban gifts, cigars, cuisine and more! The live music is amazing and the food is incredible. Calle Ocho is a must when youre visiting Miami!

Calle Ocho has become an international tourist attraction providing an array of different venues that will satisfy the most demanding taste. Highly recommend, if you have already exhausted all other Miami must go places. Hey, its still a fun place for Miami locals to enjoy THE NEW SAWUESERA.

This is definitely the area you would want to walk around. There are lots of great restaurants and lots of interesting architecture and stores. The walk of fame is cool to see and walk through to search for familiar names. It is an interesting part of town with great culture and art. Definitely a unique place to visit if you’re ever in miami.

Love the environment! Live music playing from every other establishment with ample food and drink specials to choose from. There was even a Domino park which was amazing to see/hear. Food was awesome. Music was awesome. People were awesome.The only annoying part of the visit was the guy selling peanuts he had a microphone on repeating his bit. but DONT go trying to sell food in a restaurant when people are eating!. But, I get it.

Held once a year in March the famed Calle Ocho festival definitely lived up to its name! This is the Mecca of all different cultures from ages 1 to 100 coming together to celebrate and represent their heritage and also embrace others as well. It was absolutely amazing and beautiful to see all different blends of people... the biggest block party I’ve ever seen. 10 blocks in Little Havana filled with music, food, and fun! My only tips is be prepared to pay for parking ($20) if you don’t want to walk miles to get there, because once you get in bathrooms are far and few in between and you literally WALK everywhere. The aroma of grilled meats from every culture immediately hits you as soon as you walk up, on every corner for 10 blocks you see Puerto Rican, Dominican, Cuban, Honduran, Mexican, Jamaican, even a few American flags being waved and worn by many. I learned from my husband whom is a Miami native that street tacos aren’t really big in Miami I was appalled! Being a Texas native myself that is a common thing where I’m from ( Denton 30 min outside Dallas) so I was so excited to see Mexico representing and getting the opportunity to stuff my face with tacos! Most Latin American artists get their first start at this very festival, during the day it’s SUPER hot and that’s not an understatement! They have a few performances going on but mostly the big headliners are in the evening when it cools down. Overall I throughly enjoyed myself and definitely will come back again next year!! *** please bring a few water bottles, a light tote to store things, sunblock, hat, and most importantly comfortable shoes!!! You will thank me later

To be honest I was a bit disappointed. You can witness a bit of cuban culture here, but somehow it feels a lot like a rip-off for tourists. Everything is more expensive than a few blocks away.As part of a hop on hop off tour it is worth to get off the bus, but otherwise I wouldn‘t go there.
