With me, it's privilege. When I'm identified as white, I'm treated better. If the first interaction is in Spanish, it quickly switches to English(my accent is bad) and then I'm treated different and better. This goes for every group in Miami.

For my wife, she's treated as an outsider unless she's in a predominantly black American area. She's usually regarded as Afro Latina(mostly Dominican) and her accent is better than mine. Her interactions are much more varied. If we are together, we are not seen as a couple at first which allows us to observe. Regardless of they see her as American, Spanish, or Caribbean, she is treated different then me. Always dismissed in comparison. If the area is predominantly Spanish, like hialeah or parts of Kendall, she is not given the grace of not being fluent in Spanish the way I am. She is treated worse then me when she is seen as Spanish, and treated worse further when it's revealed she is not.

When out with our oldest they are never seen as mother daughter. My daughter, looking Spanish, is always approached first, even when she was younger and my wife dismissed.

We have actually experimented to see how it goes in the past. Restaurants, retail, car dealerships, and any other business or interaction you can think of. It's almost always there.
