Hot Pressed Cuban Sandwich...yup...Tampa Style. No complaints except that I needed more than one napkin, about 10 actually. VERY good.

Totally tasty and fabulous Cuban food. My picadillo empanadas and my bowl of yellow rice and black beans with picadillos was “excelente!”

Arroz, frijoles, platanos y pernil de cerdo

This food is outstanding!! Top 5 best places in the greater Tampa area. Affordable fresh and delicious!!

Great little place I was going to try before but didn't have a chance. Just got the lunch bowl and it was piled high with slightly bland, but very well cooked pork and loads of beans and rice. Perfect place to grab lunch. Don't think you can go wrong here. might need some hot sauce just fyi.

Been coming here for over 20yrs Food and service use to be good until recently. Waited over 15 minutes for a Cuban sandwich I ordered and a dozen customers who ordered food after me got there food including 2 that ordered Cuban sandwiches.Finally just asked for money back.Don’t waste your time coming here….

This is NOT Cuban food!!! The yellow rice was the rice that comes in the plastic canister. The beans were watery. The chicken was almost dry. The ropa vieja was tasteless. No salt at all. Had to put salt on EVERYTHING. The only thing that was decent was the bread and butter. Maria did not cook this food, Mary did. Coming from a Hispanic background, THIS WAS NOT IT. I wouldn’t recommend this restaurant to anyone. Giving the food to the dogs. The only reason I gave one star was because it wouldn’t let me give zero stars. By far one of the worst Spanish meals I’ve ever had. Very disappointed for a 4.3 rating. You can not disgrace the Spanish culture like this. ??????????

Best Cuban Sandwiches this side of the bay. Great service and even better food. A hidden gem in Brandon

Love the food here the service here is absolutely fantastic these ladies will take care of you. The only reason why I didn't give it 5 stars is because they hardly ever have the fruits for the natural juices that I prefer. I highly recommend.

The food here is really good!!! It's a really nice place to get something to eat.
