I went to The Pit last week and was pleasantly surprised that the place was not a health hazard and disgusting anymore. The clean up is commendable especially the bathrooms. The new owner was at the register and super nice. Now the food...I ordered a triple decker pork sandwich as I have for years expecting the same or better. However the kitchen thinks that a bigger bread bun make a better sandwich but that's not the case. When you do that to a triple, that's WAY too much bread! It didn't have the spice nor was the meat shredded as before. This place has the potential to be a real jewel since Miami is sorely lacking great, affordable places to eat. There should be cars lined up on Tamiami Trail to get in this place. The new tiki hut, seating and landscaping makes the place look and feel great. Note to the new owners, with the piped in salsa music please don't let this American icon turn into another Pollo Tropical. There are plenty of those around.
Pros: Remodeled finally, Friendly staff
Cons: Food just OK
