We ordered iced Cuban coffee, Pan Con Bistec, Cuban bowl
(steak) and the Cuban empanada. Definitely 10 over all. -Nikkie V.
Service is fast and friendly. I have ordered over the phone, in
person and via Uber eats. Food is always fresh and well
prepared.
Happy to have an authentic Cuban in Riverview. The Chop
Cheese is also great!
And when you want to have a New York flair to your breakfast
have the Bacon Egg and Cheese! Delish -Arthur W.
Incredible food and top notch service! The staff make
everyone feel like family. The Mojito pork sandwich was the
best I've ever had. They serve breakfast all day and high
quality espresso drinks. Locally owned and the best Cuban
hidden gem! Will be recommending to everyone!!! -Houston T.
Fresh food and great service! Very flavorful ingredients. Tried
the guava cheese and cheeseburger empanadas to start and
they were very tasty. The dough they use for them was
delicious. All the sandwiches looked great but we tried the
Mojito pork sandwich and the Media Noche. Both delicious
and flavorful! Really can't go wrong with any menu item.
Owner was very helpful walking us through the menu for our
first time. Can't wait to come back and try their coffee! -Christa C.
Came here for an Uber pickup and was so impressed by the
menu I ended up getting a cheese and egg sandwich. It was
Delicious!!! Also the staff are super friendly. There is indoor
seating and wait wasn't that long. -Andy J.
