The food is always hot and fresh! The rice with tomato onion gravy is so delicious! If you do a platter, meaning you’d get a sandwich with sides of black beans and the yellow rice, only get a half sandwich unless you’re super hungry or want to take half home with you. The portions are very generous!
It's a landmark, period. Best Cuban food in our region, homemade Cuban goodness on every plate! Lived in Atlanta 30 years & was a regular, remember the sad day when the original place burned down. Thankfully they reopened just down the street & it's my go to place 1st & foremost when I make a return. Certainly worth the drive!
This restaurant is pretty far from Buford Highway area where I normally hung out, but it was worth the drive. I studied the menu before the visit, so I could easily ordered my food. I was informed this restaurant can get packed super fast, so I visited this restaurant as soon as it opened. Food was ready pretty quickly, but the flavor of the food was amazing. This was the best Cuban sandwich I ever had for sure. Empanada was crispy with jalapeños kick. I will most definitely be back and try different items on the menu.
First time here, and we will definitely be back! Very affordable prices and not much of a line at 11:45am on a Thursday (it did get pretty busy around noon though, so plan accordingly)
Plenty of parking in the back of the building.
Soft drink cooler with Mexican cokes and other cane sugar sodas (love that!)
We ordered the media noche sandwich with extra pickles- a media noche is essentially a Cuban but with a sweet egg bread. VERY YUM.
My husband got a tamale plate, which was a lot of food and very filling for ~$9 it came with fresh bread, rice and a bean soup (not enough flavor on the bean soup in my opinion)
Definitely want to come back to try the plantains, the croquets and the Cuban coffee! Great prices and nice service ✨
First time back in 10 years! We came back to Atlanta and stopped by the place and very very happy to learn the food is still excellent and authentic. The best Cuban sandwich I have ever had.
Great sandwich shop. Authentic and delicious. Sandwiches around $9 and plates a little more. Pretty small dining room but people turnover quite fast. Drinks include some Caribbean selections if you are curious. Great deserts and coffees. Service was quick, friendly and efficient. Parking can be a challenge.
I love this place. I’ve tried nearly everything on the menu. I didn’t like the fried chicken. It was super dry and hard…the rice pudding and flan were good. But love the stew chicken and pepper steak. I usually call ahead. But wait time is usually 10-15 minutes. I give them
Lunch on weekday, arrived around 12:45 pm, lunch crowd was finishing up but still had open tables inside and out. Family run with aunties clearing the tables. Informal ambiance, authentic tasting, would go again. We ordered traditional Cuban sandwich as well as a medianoche (a Cuban on sweet bread) both were delicious ($9.75 each)
My first time ordering here. I got the cuban sandwich platter, chicken/jalapeño/cheese empanada, mushroom empanada, chicken croquette, and flan. No other words other than that everything is so good, so affordable, and big portions. Literally wrote this right after finishing my meal.
This food will make you wanna smack your momma! The best Cubin I have ever had and I have had many. None compare to this place right here. It is out of this world good. The rice was delicious and the black beans were perfect! The fat girl in me just can't help herself. I love everything food and this place just made my top 10 which is hard to do these days. The staff was helpful and the lady taking orders was not only patient but very helpful. The restaurant itself was cute and clean so no complaints. I will be going back tomorrow. I would go tonight but unfortunately they are not open so I will continue my fat girl overload tomorrow.
I had not been here since the late 80's but it was just as good now as it was then. My favorite is the half cuban sandwich, yellow rice & black beans.
I stopped here for lunch in my workday and I was not disappointed! I had the Cuban sandwich and it was delicious!
