El Rey De Las Fritas, a cherished establishment in Miami, traces its origins back to Cuba, where Victoriano Benito Gonzalez and his wife Angelina La Gallega Gonzalez perfected the art of creating Frita Cubanas. Since its opening in 1979, the restaurant has become synonymous with authentic Cuban flavors, showcasing their signature dish made with a 100% ground-beef patty infused with a secret family recipe, topped with fresh ingredients, and served in a Cuban bread bun.

Today, the legacy continues as their children, Mercedes and Yamil Gonzalez, uphold the family tradition of quality and flavor across multiple locations in vibrant neighborhoods like Hialeah, Bird Road, and Flagler. El Rey De Las Fritas has earned a notable reputation, recognized in various media, and remains a beloved staple of Miami's Cuban culinary scene.
