This is some of the best Cuban food that I have had in a long while. Cuban owners. Cuban staff. It's authentic and the owner, Don Louis, is a beautiful human being; extremely kind and generous. I highly recommend breakfast, lunch, or dinner if you want authentic Cuban food.

We dined at the Counter Service side and the service was quick, good was incredible, and a great atmosphere that dates back 50 years. Making the meal complete was the fresh pressed buttered Cuban bread (made in house). Perfect for sopping up the leftover juices from the Ropa Vieja.

A true 5-star gem! A non- pretentious, authentic Cuban restaurant open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It is a counter service style place with genuine and speedy service. I moved away from Tampa years ago, and this is one of the places I truly miss! They have a very extensive menu full of great traditional Cuban dishes that are truly mouth-watering. Their Puerco Asado with yellow rice, black beans, and, of course, Yuca is my favorite. A must visit place in Tampa area

We were looking for something different to try. The cubano sandwich was very tasty. We ordered the appetizer platter, which came with ham croquettes, plantain chips and yuca fries. The ham croquettes were fried to perfection. The chips crunchy and the yuca fries were good. They came with three different sauces. The garlic,cilantro mayo was the best. We would come here again.

Decent cuban sandwich as having had many of these when someone asks if I want lettuce tomatoes mustard and mayo it pinches a nerve but I gave it a shot. It was not bad I had ask for it the correct way I know mustard only but was pleased. While not the best I ever had it certainly was not the worst. The platanito chips were overcooked and oily but some were salvageable and tasted good. The corquets were small but tast as well. Bought some pastries but haven't tried them yet. Overall I say when in Tampa give this place a try, the other dishes I saw looked delightful and smelled good.

We came to Tampa to pick up a family member from the airport around 9 PM. It was on our bucket list to get some Cuban food while in the area. I found this restaurant online and the reviews were excellent so we decided to go there. Even though it was close to 9:30 PM, the place was fairly full. The service was good, the prices were very, reasonable and the food was excellent. while I have not enjoyed Cuban food extensively, this was by far the best Cuban sandwich I have ever had. I would definitely go again if I was in the area.

I pulled in on a friend’s recommendation. I had my doubts. The place definitely does not stand out from the neighborhood. Orientation took a few moments too. There are several different areas. A bakery in the back, a huge bar style restaurant on the west side - perfect if you are alone and don’t mind mixing with other, and a sit down restaurant on the east side. Go around the back to access everything. Most importantly, the food. The FOOD! I was pleasantly surprised. I wasn’t crazy about the appetizer bread, but the main courses were very inexpensive, generous quantities and delicious! I got goat and fried fish. Also got some desert from the bakery afterwards. Everything was fantastic. If I were closer, I’d be here trying out all the dishes. Try this place out if you haven’t been. Fantastic first experience for me.

Such a great place. We have never eaten in the restaurant just the diner side and we've never had a bad meal. The portions are huge and the prices are great! Definitely a must try. Everytime we are in Tampa we always stop here. As yiu cam see from my pictures, I was so excited to eat that I forgot to take pictures before digging in.

I've been coming here for years, this place is amazing. Go to breakfast place, ordered their croquettes for our wedding reception, love the guava cheese.
There is a full blown restraunt with live music and great sangria for date nights, and a diner for breakfast and casual eating. Can't go wrong with either.

Love the good. Prices are reasonable and fair. Great staff and professionalism. The staff there treat my autistic son with such respect. He's been going to this restaurant since he was a baby. His special needs sometimes cause him to exhibit actions differently to what's "acceptable",or what some would call weird or abnormal behavior. The staff there are so kind to him and understand. They even told me that my autistic son is their "favorite kiddo" and that I should be proud of him. I am! Great place!

I would return. Waited a bit initially. Our server was ok. I don't like waiting a long time once seated to be acknowledged, I feel that sets the experience. The food was good, the atmosphere is nice. I'll be back and give it another shot. It's worth trying out if you haven't been.

Cute and tasty cubian restaurant. The service was fast and the prices were reasonable. We ordered cafe con leche, cuban and steak sandwich, plus a churro from the pastry shop next door. Very tasty and delicious. The bread on the sandwiches were fresh and tasty. Would go back to try other dishes.
