A Miami Story, Told Through Food
Located in the heart of Little Havana, Tin Tin was created as an expression of Miami cuisine, rooted in Cuban flavors and enriched by French and Italian influences.
Born as the “big sister” of Tinta y Café, Tin Tin builds on a story that began in Miami more than two decades ago. Here, familiar flavors are reinterpreted through technique, creativity and the diverse cultural influences that define the city.
From Ropa Vieja Wellington and Malanga Gnocchi Cacio e Pepe to Arroz con Pollo and inventive crudos, the menu brings different culinary traditions together while remaining deeply connected to Miami.
It is an approach designed to feel both familiar and unexpected, a celebration of where we come from and the city we call home.
What The New York Times Discovered at Tin Tin
In its 2026 selection, The New York Times highlighted Tin Tin’s “eye-catching food” and the visual character of dishes served at the restaurant, including its approach to seafood and the playful presentation of familiar ingredients.
The recognition reflects something at the center of what we strive to create every day: food that begins with flavor, tells a Miami story and gives guests a reason to remember the experience.
