I don't think I've tried very many Cuban restaurants, so i might not be one to judge how good and authentic this place is..but i know when food is good and it makes me happy. so i guess my review is still somewhat legit right?!?!
the decor is interesting.. don't expect a super fancy restaurant, but the food definitely makes up for it. i loveee love love their garlic chicken, the ropa vieja, the oxtail stew...the list goes on!! the best thing to do is to come here with a buncha friends, so you guys can all order and try one dish and share :)
all of their dishes average out to be around $12 or so, it's not cheap, but its not super expensive either..you get a lot of food so it's not a rip off!
the crazy garlic taste can be a little overpowering, but this place is definitely good if you go once in a while! i don't go very often, but every time i do, i'm pretty sure i say "OMGG SO GOOD!!" at least once when i'm there!! ENJOY :)
WTF? Seriously, I have been coming here for years and I don't know if my tastes have gotten more refined or the quality at this restaurant is just going down the crapper?
I had the cubano sandwich and my mister had the garlic chicken. My sandwich was dry and the bread tasted kinda stale and the pork was dry. The chicken portions seems to have gotten smaller and the maduros were mushy an lacked the usual tasty flavor, same goes for the beans. The price increase just makes me miss how good this place used to be. The garlic chicken dinners used to go for $7.95 and was a true bargain. Now I think it goes for $9.95 or $10.95. I was so disappointed with my meal that I am not sure if I am going to come back. It is a sad day indeed.
When I first discovered Versailles, I would have given it 4 stars, however, in recent years, the… Read more »
The garlic shrimp and the veggie plates are both awesome! Their plantains are hands down some of the best I've had in LA.
I've also tried the srimp with yellow rice which was ok but definitely too tomato-y for me.
My friend had the oxtails which she loved and her bf had the carne and he scarfed that down so I'm guessing it was good. My brother had the garlic chicken which was like half a chicken. He was happy to have leftovers but not so thrilled about the pool of butter and garlic. He and my hubby also loved the black beans!
The great thing about this place is that your food is ready really quickly but it definitely seems fresh, made to order and not microwaved.
My friend took me here after I complained that I had never had Cuban food, and had wanted to try it. We were in LA (can't remember why at the moment), and she decided to take me to some of the places that she loved to eat. We ordered the Chicken with the rice and beans, and the extra sauce. I have to say I left satisfied and completely impressed.
Hand Claps to Versailles and My Friend!
On the noth east coast we don't have many Cuban food restaurants. So when i went to visit my sister and saw this place I had to go. I found the food fantastic with a great staff. I found them fast and courteous. I highly recommend for lunch and probably even dinner.
A friend who lives in the area brought me here.. and I will thank her forever for the experience. The food was delicious!
I could not decide between the garlic chicken and the pork. I mentioned this to the waiter.. and he just told me.. well, I can give you half/half. I loved the fact that he so eagerly chosed to accommodate me!
I started coming here in the late 80's when this place was pretty hot in LA.
I haven't visited this location in more than 10 years (the Manhattan Beach location is more convenient). I was in the area with my wife and decided to stop in. The place is still great and folks friendly. I always love the lechon asado (roast pork) with black beans and rice. More than 10 years later, this location still serves it up as great as usual !!!
The original Versailles and the best garlic chicken in all of LA. In the early 90's, when this place… Read more »
I was sitting at my desk last week , chatting with our lunch crew via Skype about what we should eat for lunch that day. Mind you, it was 10:30 in the morning - hey, we get an early start! Suddenly, another IM window appeared: "Hey guys - we're ordering from Versailles today to celebrate a birthday, who wants in?" I quickly scanned the list of recipients in the IM window - the entire lunch crew was included. It was unanimous...Versailles for lunch it was.
A lunch crew bud/Yelpy friend and I decided to split the "Famoso Pollo Versailles" - Versailles' famous garlic chicken. I've tried a few other things on the menu, but the garlic chicken is my favorite. Frighteningly enough, I could eat the entire entree myself on a normal day. :O Today, however, was not a normal day - I had actually eaten breakfast! needless to say I was up for splitting the entree...and I was not left hungry.The moro is yummy, but the beans and rice separately does the trick as well. The best part of all? The side of plantains. :)
Versailles is not the most convenient place to order lunch from (because of where the office is), but it's always a welcome lunch distraction.
4 shakas!
I've been to this establishment several times and they are in consistent in the speed to which you get your order, the taste of their dishes AND their service is always efficient. I seemed to get the famous "Garlic Chicken" all the time my daughter gets the "Arroz con Pollo" the black beans, steamed rice and plantains are delicious. The Sangria used to be the BOMB but they changed the recipe and no longer put fresh fruit in the glasses =[
Parking is horrendous, lines can be horrific but the good thing is they get you in fast (for the most part) I've never tried their desserts and the restrooms are usually dirty but a part from those minuses I will happily continue to darken their door step :)
ps. Whenever I have people visiting from out of town I take them here and every last one of my visitors leave happy and FULL.

This wasn't my first choice for dinner but the place that we were supposed to go is no where to be found and I don't have much time to waste driving around so my friend told me there's another cuban place less than a mile away.
So we end up going here. this place is not shabby at all it feels like a mexican fastfood place but a bit better. While looking at the menu we opted to get a pitcher of sangria first which is a good deal 15 bucks i think.
As recommended by my friend that the Pork Lechon is good i ordered that one and since i'm filipino when you say Lechon it should be good! And she ordered pork leg. Mine came in like a shredded pork no skin but all lean meat and some thin slices of onion on top, rice , black beans and some plantains.
My dish was very good but not great, there's a lot of garlic in it, a bit salty for my taste, juicy and flavorful. Definitely worth the try.
Versailles is a great spot for casual and traditional cuban-style pulled meats. Savory flavors and friendly prompt service. Not exactly in the best area but definatly a great quickstop for tasty comfort food.
Casual dinner for 2...under $25 inlcuding tax & tip!
I'd suggest spitting an avocado salad (avocado with onions, drizzle oil & vinager on to your liking) and the pork with is drenched with garlic and lime juice and comes with rice, black beans, and delished fried banana.
First off, I am Cuban-American.
Second, I am from Miami and still visit frequently.
These things considered, I believe I can give a solid review here.
I eat at Versaille's locations several times per year, and not more, simply because I don't have a location near me.
IMHO, Versailles is the best Cuban restaurant I have ever eaten at!
Whoever the little old lady is that created their marinates and sauces is a saint. However, just like with most restaurants, I believe you have to know what to order to get the great experience.
The things I order frequently are the Pork Chunks(masa de puerco), Roast Pork(lechon or puerco asado), Oxtails(rabo), Garlic Chicken, and Chicken and Rice. I have listed these in order of preference.
Those are basics in Cuban cuisine and I would stick to those. There is no place that serves better pork than Versaille's on this planet. Unless you don't eat pork, you must order it here before any other protein. The sides are good, but not as good as the mains. Black beans and white rice, moros(mixed black beans and rice), and the fried plantains are all very good, but I have had better, especially at home. You won't be disappointed if you order right here. If you don't like the food here, you don't like Cuban food!
Great Cuban food. Try their signature garlic chicken. Service is hit and miss. Definitely worth trying...
No nonsense, no-frills, holy-frickin-cow-it's-good Cuban food.
I went here with two friends late on a Weds night, so it wasn't trouble to get a table and look at the cute waiters (and some cute patrons, too!)
The oxtail stew is AWESOME, and my friend Jeff always loves (and raves about) the garlic chicken. The garlic bread they serve is too greasy, but the sangria is damn good. The fried plantains are nice, but there's too much rice served with everything (I don't love rice, so it's probably just my stupid bias).
I still say "Go!"
It's a good, hearty place with reasonable prices and variety. Nothing set me on fire though. I liked the plantains but feel like i've had better before. The portions though are amazing. it can equal like two more extra meals with leftovers. great service and great waiters that are lots of fun.
i brought a friend who has traveled to south america and she loved it because they had semi-authentic food. it wasn't as good though as food she had in south america.
good place for friends and if you want a change of pace in food.
also if you ever cater a party, this place has great catering with lots and lots of food!!
I can always count on versaille for having great food. Steak with onions or oxtail served with beans and rice. Everything reminds me of home cooked food. Everything sounds the same on the menu and I can't figure out which one is the one I like before, but everything is good here. Their garlic chicken is citrusy and flavorful, but I break out into hives when I eat anything too garlicky. There's wine and beer, and the inside looks like it's been renovated recently. The servings are huge too, one serving is good enough for two people. I never had a hard time finding parking.
All I need to be armed with when I step into Versailles is my love of garlic...and chicken.
They have amazing garlic chicken, which is really the only thing you need to get when you eat here. Trust me, almost everything else is fine, ok, swell, but it won't make you wiggle with joy in your seat after your first bite the way the garlic chicken platter does. I don't think anyone wants to see me wiggle in my seat but, fuck it, I'll do it and you'll like it because you will be eating some delicious garlic chicken with me and will be doing your own lap dance with yourself.
With that said, there was only one time in my life when I couldn't eat here, I mean I couldn't drive by here without wanting to scrub the streets with my personal stash of hydrochloric acid that I keep tucked away in my belly. That one time was when I was pregnant and I could not stand the smell of garlic or chicken. And lucky for Versailles, this was the restaurant I ate at when I realized I couldn't eat garlic or chicken. I call that period the dead days because for me not being able to eat garlic or chicken was like my mouth was dead to me. My six year old has since apologized to me and I can now ingest copius amounts of garlic, chicken or any combination of such, which if you actually counted, there are only 3. Garlic. Chicken. Garlic and Chicken.
I give this place 4 stars instead of 5 because I think plantains in general are over-rated and not even this place could make me put it in my mouth, not even with their garlic. or chicken.
Yummy, yummy to my garlicy tummy!!!

Ill start off by saying I am Cuban and enjoy cooking cuban at home. So my review should have a little weight to it :)
Started with the avocado salad. Throw a little oil, vinegar and salt and your taste buds will thank you. For drinks, love that the traditional drinks are always offered here (Malta, Matervas, etc)
Huge portions, come hungry! The #4 - Chuletas de Puerco (Pork Chops) were delicious. They werent shy about laying down the marinade on this meat along smothered with grilled onions. Mouth is watering while typing this up! The black beans are great. Pour them over the white rice and splash a little vinegar. TASTY. Can't forget about the plantains. The combination of sweet with the citrus tanginess of the pork chops explodes in your mouth.
Just be prepared to leave this place smelling like Cuban food from head to toe.
Best place for Cuban when not making it at home!
If you are planning a night out on the town, bar-hopping, whatever, and you need dinner first, you might want to stop by Versailles. All the grease helps lubricate your tummy (I think), but the best part is the sangria. It's not particularly good sangria, but damn if it isn't a great way to start the night! The stuff is strong and at $14 for a whole large pitcher, you can get a good buzz going without spending too much. Trust me.

theres this other dish i want to try but im afraid for a change...like they say if it aint broken dont fix it lol

O man, I fell in love with the cuban pork sandwich here (cubano).
*Drools*
*Drools some more*
Need to stop writing reviews around lunch time.
You will probably not like this place if you are vegetarian. Most of the dishes consist of meat plus plantains and beans. I tried to get the salad once, but it consisted of merely lettuce, onions and tomatoes.
Besides the Cubano, I also recommend the ox-tail stew (always good!!) and their famous chicken (though other reviewers are right...the quality of the chicken varies each time you go.. it can be quite spectacular though when it's done right). Further, the tropical fruit smoothies are awesome!
The service is always good, and they do have parking out front, though not a lot.
I have two words for you.
GARLIC. CHICKEN.
That's all you need, friends. The tang of lemon, a waft of garlicky goodness, and that's all you need for some instant happy.
Their OXTAIL STEW is also dee-licious -- delicately seasoned, and the beef is always tender!
And their TAMALES -- you can get two for $3.50, and they're huge! So filling!!
My Cuban friend dislikes Versailles because he says it's "not really Cuban." But I have to say that I don't care as long as it IS really good.
My friend Connie took my sorority sisters and me here once for dinner and ever since then, we have been die hard fans of this place. I personally love the steak (#11 and #12) but I have numerous friends who are in love with their chicken.
If you're ever craving a delicious flavorful steak with grilled onions then the bistec de sollomino and bistec de lomo are just for you. They come with black beans, rice and fried plantains on the side. Although I would rather have a double helping of the plantains and forgo the beans, they don't allow any substitutions here.
Also parking is really cramped and large cars smash into compact spaces ALL THE TIME. Sad to say that a few of our cars have suffered minor casualties with a few extra dings and scratches that weren't there pre-dining.
The place is pretty crowded at dinner time, even during the week! Loud rambunctious restaurant which is good for group dinners, just have to wait for a table.
Minus one star for obnoxious creepy wait staff. They blatantly stare at all the girls and make you feel dirty. YUCK. Yum for the food though. Make that YUM YUM for the food. Sigh. My mouth is watering just writing this review. If only I lived in LA again, I would go for a visit.
Should I have read the menu longer before selecting my dishes? My friend heard Versailles had some good Cuban food, so we headed on over to this location since it was only a few blocks from where I was staying. I went with our gut and chose the first thing on the Pork section of the menu because it said "Cuban style". Eh... I guess we can't always trust our gut.
Ordered the Lechon Asado (cuban style roast pork) and Yucca Rellena (stuffed yuca). The Yucca Rellena was a little under seasoned, but okay. But the Lechon Asado looked like cat food (shredded meat in liquid) and tasted.... sour. Is that right? Can anyone tell me if this was supposed to taste sour? Someone please let me know! However, we did see a bunch of people ordering what looked like a huge pork leg or piece of chicken. That looked pretty damn good. And there WAS a huge line outside for a seat after we left...
I'm torn on giving this place 1.5 or 2 stars. So I guess 2 stars will have to do until I can get myself to go back.
I usually come here for a late dinner, around 9 or 10.
There's plenty of variety and it's all good, I'm a pollo fan myself (especially the arroz con pollo) but the mariscos ain't to shabby either.
Either way it's good food and there's plenty of it, the prices are really decent, and if you're not starving, you'll def have a good size of leftovers.
It's my go to Cuban place in LA.
Buttery, garlicky goodness. I've never been dissapointed here, and yes, i have tried items other than their famous chicken. despite the restaurant's popularity, i have never had to wait for a table and the service is quick (once you get a waiter's attention).
its good to pick up to-go too, because since the portions are so huge you can eat the leftovers later. the downside to this is that even if you put the food in the trunk, your car will smell like garlic for days.
This is an LA institution if i've ever seen one. Go try it!
I could talk about the golden brown plantains, the wonderful camarones mojo de ajo, the attentive service for a place so busy, but here's the short version -
Food - GOOD
Service - GOOD
Price - VERY GOOD
Go there and you'll be happy. Period.
It doesn't look like much on the outside... hell it doesn't look like much in the inside.. but the food? Nom nom nom.
It's cheap and yummy. If it were open later I'd say it'd be great drunk food. Guess you'll have to settle for either drinking mid afternoon on the weekend (ahem you drunky unemployed people) and hit it then or for your sunday "What the hell was I thinking with that waitress on sunset boulevard?!" brunch.
Plantains. Large portions. Big hunks' o meat (easy there ladies). Black beans and rice.
I doubt there's anything on the menu that wouldn't hit the mark.
It's pretty quiet and dark in here. It's not a bad date idea if you don't mind the breath you'll have after this. (Did I mention the garlic bread here is most tasty?)
This one is a good stop, don't let the outside fool you. Seriously.
I still think that a Cuban restaurant named Versailles is weird.
Despite the name, the food is so deliciously satisfying. The portions are large and the Versailles garlic chicken with sliced white onions is AMAZING. It's one of their signature dishes and you must try it with a bottle of wine (or 2).
There seems to always be a line outside on the weekends, but don't let this deter you from going! The food is absolutely worth the wait.
Food: 3
Atmosphere: 3
Service: 3
I liked: the plentiful parking, authentic cuban feel
I disliked: that they ran out of Arroz con Pollo @ 8pm
I ordered their specialty-- Garlic Chicken. Maybe it's because I've never had true Cuban cuisine, but the liquid sauce was very overwhelming... think Garlic listerine because even after I brushed my teeth I could still smell garlic garlic garlic. The chicken itself was surprisingly moist inside and super crunchy on the outside, though. Around $10 including tax & tip for the dish.
Most dishes come with plantains and beans-- both of which were delicious and a must try. I like to dip my plantains (a kind of banana) into the beans before eating. Not sure if this is the proper way to eat the two, but I found the slight sweetness and savory a good combination.
On the plus side: I accidentally dropped my small coach pouch (with random stuff like eye drops, tissues, etc.) on the floor where we were sitting. The man who was cleaning up my table saw it, ran out the restaurant, and stopped my car so that he could give it back to me. A+
Aside from the "dragon breath" you leave with....
Worked close by for several years - and this was one of our favorite lunch hang outs. Delicious authentic food... always went with a group, secret for lunch is to arrive before opening time to get parking and a table - and then sit down and enjoy!
Its a noisy place cause so busy - but that's OK - atmosphere is fun and adds to experience. Love the pork. chicken, and beef dishes, OK, the whole menu! (all dishes tasty and authentic - but a little greasy so partake with some moderation), great beans, rice, and bread too...
In fact - those of us at the table would each order a different entree and "share" so we'd get the full experience. Very well seasoned and the prices were also very reasonable. I couldn't name a fav cause they are all really good. And yes, lots of garlic and onion - but for those who eat and work together or hang together - who cares????
Summary - yummy Cuban food I haven't found the likes of anywhere else for the price - really authentic....... just expect crowds and again, if you are proactive in arrival time etc. can be dealt with easily.
Garlic chicken. Order it. Enjoy it.
Arrive when it's busy so you know the chicken is constantly being cycled in and out of the kitchen so it's cooked to perfection. Come in a group, it's a fun place. Chicken, bread, plantains, sangria, it's all delicious.
Once in a while I dare to get the #1 pork or the #14 ribeye. The former is good. The latter is somewhat less consistent.
I admit I screwed up on this visit. We came pretty early for dinner, and the chicken was a little overcooked. I fully expect that to be rectified on the next visit, where I will come at the proper time, and they will probably get that 4th star back.
Food- 3.5 stars.
Service- 2 stars.
Garlic chicken is the only dish to get here. We ordered a top sirloin steak dish and it was so not worth the $12.95.
The chicken was tender, juicy and packed with lots of garlicky flavor. I love the mojo sauce it comes with. Wish they gave more though cuz my sis and I were wanting more. If you ask for extra sauce, they will charge you $2. Say what? No thanks.
Steak was really hard and over-cooked. It's rare for me to say that steak is over done since I like mine medium, but this thing was so hard to chew and cut. Umm yeah.. Forgo the steak. Get the chicken, or better yet, try the oxtail stew. I heard that's a good dish.
Service was sucky. She seemed unhappy to be there, didn't bring out plates for us till way later even though I asked for them at the beginning. Dude, we need to eat our crumbly garlic bread without getting bread all over the table.
So, in a nutshell. Get the chicken to go. You can enjoy it at home and not have to worry about garlic breath. Huge portions too, so feel free to share. Or not.

Whenever I come here, I order the Oxtail Stew, without fail. The plantains are eh, the rice/beans is whatever, but that Oxtail...so succulent, so hearty, so out of this world awesome. Stop thinking that it's weird or gross to eat the meat on the tail of an ox. Cuz if you do, you'll be missing out.
The other thing I've tried here is the garlic chicken, which I found way too dry...but who cares, now that I have Oxtail Stew I don't need nothin else.
I'm hoping I went on a bad night, because this place didn't live up to it's previous reviews.
This restaurant is noisy. We got there a little after 9 p.m., so the place wasn't completely packed, but regardless, it was really loud. It's one thing to have a bustling restaurant, but it's completely different when it's just noise--people yelling to talk to one another, someone working there throwing utensils in the bin after they are dried--it was a little much. Maybe I'm just getting too old...
The food here wasn't particularly great either. I did like the garlicky bread they brought to the table at the beginning. In fact, I ate all of it myself, but the remainder of the meal was lackluster. I ordered the ropa vieja. Good ropa vieja should be extremely tender and flavorful. Versailles ropa vieja was flavorful with lots of tomato and bell pepper, but very chewy. My jaw was literally aching at the end of the meal because the meat was so chewy. I think the rice was a bit on the undercooked side, but the black beans and plantains were fine. In fact, I really liked the plantains, and those were the only thing I managed to finish.
What really capped off my experience here was seeing someone who worked at the restaurant blow their nose and walk back and touch stuff without washing his hands in between. I'm still amazed that I managed to continue eating after seeing that.
If you don't mind really noisy restaurant, and giant portions of mediocre food then this may be your place, otherwise, I'd consider going somewhere else.

The Smell of....Garlic and Onions!
3 Rules of avoiding people fromg giving you the "Looks" caused by the savory garlic smell after dining at Versailles:
1. Always carry a portable perfume/ air freshener
2. Carry around tooth brush / mouth wash
But best strategy is to...
3. Just take EVERYONE that sits and works next to you to Versailles during lunch!
Away Away~!!! Vampires! Here comes the garlic!!!!
Oh Joy... of the savory Garlicky Chicken and roasted onions mmmmmmm..MMMMMMM
BIG PORTION, GOOD FOOD, GREAT SERVICE...bad parking, but you'll live.
Came here with friends. I shared their signature chicken with my BFF as she said it was a big portion. She asked for the sauce on the side as she said they would douse the sauce and it would be too much. We got the 'moro' instead of the beans and rice.
The food arrived quickly. I sampled the lechon also but it was so-so. It tasted like pulled pork without the bbq sauce. I'm not really into that texture too much. The chicken however was outstanding! Half a chicken butterflied and roasted to perfection, moist and succulent. The accompanying sauce was really tart and the flavor was very pleasing to me.
The moro was beans and rice mixed together to give it a 'dirty rice' feel.... I definitely liked that better than the beans and rice combo seeing the rice was just plain white rice and the beans was black beans -- the mix of them together was definitely a far tastier option.
Service is abrupt. He wasn't too happy when my BFF and I wanted to share, but hey, it was more than enough food for the two of us. The plate also comes with plantains -- I've never been a huge fan of plantains, but the ones here are done exceptionally well so I had a piece of it.
Thoroughly enjoyable meal!!
My Old Man and I came here last night to check it out since we did not feel like cooking at home, but boy what a mistake. I do not know if its what we ordered, but this place SUCKS!!!
My dad ordered #6 (the half chicken) and I ordered #1 (pork). Our food came out faster then a McDonald's Drive-thru!
Aside from that, our food was just straight lemon juice and a pound of salt, oh and to top it off with some raw onion slices. I could make this sh*t at home. No wonder America is freaking #1 in obesity, diabetes, and high/low blood pressure.
Maybe I'll come back for their tamales, but that's it!!!
Garlic and onions! Garlic and onions! Garlic and onions! Garlic and onions! Garlic and onions! I LOVE garlic and onions!
Old school Cuban food in an old school setting. Lots of garlic and unbelievable fried plantains.
Low prices and the thick garlic aroma fuel the dining room. Waiters in guayaberas serve tourist, locals, families and pre-bar hoppers. The house favorite garlic chicken in citrus marinade anchors the Cuban menu. Roast pork and salted, bay leaf-infused black beans run a close second to the famous chicken. I personally order everything with a side of sweet fried plantains.
If you are a Craig R. stalker you can find me here almost once a week getting take-out.
**** Warning****
Belching after this meal is dangerous to your dates health.
I hate over-hyping a place, I really do. But for those of you that don't mind the rantings and ravings, I have to say that the Versailles chicken was possibly one of the best ... if not THE best chicken I have ever had. EVAR.
My friend first recommended that I go when I told her that I was making a trip to LA. Her eyes widened and she told me about this chicken that she still dreams about. And now I know why.
If you decide to venture there after reading my accolades of the place, DEFINITELY get the #6. The combination comes with rice, beans, soft and succulent plantains and HALF a golden, garlic chicken.
Garlic doesn't even begin to describe it. Paired with the onion that comes atop the bird, one bite is filled with buttery, garlicy, lemony goodness. There's this citrus tang that really pops on the palate, and I found myself eagerly awaiting the next tender bite.
My fellow diner just had the chicken breast, which was on the dry side - so definitely get the chicken that is still on the bone. You won't regret it.
Another tip: go with a smaller group, show up early and make sure EVERYBODY is there at the same time or they won't seat you. We also ordered a pitcher of Sangria to split among four people, which was refreshing.
When I make another trip out to LA, you can be sure that I'll have Versailles chicken on my mind.
