Fast fast fast , I was starving and didn’t take a picture of my food but I wish I did because it had to be the best Cuban food I’ve ever had. The location is a hole in the wall but it is worth every single penny it is actually genius how efficient they are in that small workspace. Clever brilliant excellent food I live about a 30 minute drive and was in the area but I would definitely drive to get food from here.
I had some Cuban food in Miami early this month. So when I saw My Cuban Spot on the map this morning, I got excited to try while keeping my expectations low just in case. But I was totally surprised! The Cuban sandwich was absolutely delicious especially the crust of the bread! I also loved the Guava cheese empanada that was not too sweet. I’m going back there to try other sandwiches for sure!
Hands/fins down the best Cuban sandwich I’ve had in NYC, and maybe ever. The to go bag said “the boss” idk if that’s different from regular Cuban, but it was INCREDIBLE. The beef empanadas were also delicious, but I completely forgot about them when I realized how mouthwatering-ly amazing the Cuban was.
I will be returning tomorrow and the day after that and again and again. GO HERE IMMEDIATELY.
Loved the food. One of the best Cubans I have had in New York. Food is made to order and comes out fast. Workers are friendly. This is not a large place. Outside seating only. They have seating for 4 and 2 benches outside the restaurant.
Amazing food, you’re gonna be full from the boss sandwich (comes with plantain chips). Good value.
FYI They don’t take American Express, but all other credit/debit cards should be fine.
They do have limited outdoor seating (bar stools) but my friends and I ate our food at a nearby park.
Go nuts - order anything that sounds good because it is! We got into Brooklyn just in time to get dinner: beef empanadas, yuca fries, pork rice bowl and the Frita (Cuban burger). Flavors are on point and that burger was something special! Café con leches were legit - definitely don’t miss out on this place.
Seating is VERY limited. Takeaway is your best plan unless you catch this on a lull like we did: there are 2 bar-height, narrow tables with 2 stools each and no space for extras to stand. Plan to pick up and go.
Sadly, they haven’t been able to get their meat supply for chicharrón so we missed out on that one - we will be back to try again when we visit NYC again.
Not sure what a traditional Cuban sandwich is supposed taste like but the fantasy I had in my head became a reality at first bit. If your looking for 100% delicious Cuban sandwich definitely check this spot out. Also the cafecito was wonderful, was like NOS of coffee and flavor, OG Fast and Furious style. Highly recommend!
P.S. Also love that they were rocking out to some Underoath
Hands down this truly is the best cuban spot ever in NYC!!! A close friend of ours posted about this cuban spot so today we wanted to try and see if his hype was real. Simply Amazing! We ordered the cuban sandwiches, beef empanadas (OMG!!!), guava and cheese empanadas and chicken and pork bowls. And we also bought for our friends... thanks to my friend who posted and tagged this spot. I am soo happy to eat such great food and not have to travel to Miami just to satisfy my cravings!! Service and food was just amazing!!! Oh and the cuban coffee... Thank you for making such great food for our lunch and dinner. i wish you guys the best and continue to do so amazingly well!!!
The sandwich itself is great. A little greasy but I feel like it’s almost expected since there is pork. The side of chips are not good, so I would just skip those honestly.
This really is "My Cuban Spot". I would never send a friend anywhere else for high-quality food for the right price👏
The menu is simple and to the point. Restaurants like this allow my indecisive personality to thrive! Might I add that the food was perfect? Crisp bread, delicious meat, impeccable balance. Nothing more I can ask for.
Stop by the next time you're craving fresh food🤤
