Description

Versailles founder and Cuban exile Felipe Valls Sr. is credited with developing this original walk-up window concept, which later spread across Miami. Positioned at the center of the restaurant's cultural significance, the counter serves as both a stomping ground for Cuban exiles and an outpost for the media. It remains a customary stop for cortaditos, coladas, pastries, and even cigars.
