Deluxe Cuban sandwich

Cuban cuisine

First time ordering from here. Picture that I added shows two entrees Lechon Asado (left) and Vaca Frita (right), with extra sweet plantains (8 total in each box) for $1.75 each. Total was $37. Lechon asado tasted good, but vaca frita was super dry and had no seasoning.....i had to add some adobo and salt to make it more edible. Overall it was alright but i was disappointed in the vaca frita.....i shouldve tried the ropa vieja instead. I also think the original price of $15-$16 per entree is $1 or $2 more than it should be for the amount of food you get, but that's just my opinion. May try this place one more time

I love the one over on Southside but I ordered from the one on San Jose tonight and got the worst Cuban sandwich I have ever had. The bread wasnt even cuban bread and it was burnt. It was cold and had about 1 oz of meat total. Waste of $12. Plantains were good but also cold. Will never be back to this location.

The best fried chicken, churrasco,congri highly recommended ?

Delicious! The black beans and rice are amazing. The lime on the pan con lechon is the perfect amount.

Hard to find a descent Cuban restaurant in Jacksonville. This is the best I've found. Nice clean, friendly little place. Reasonable prices with a family atmosphere.

This is a gem. Great hole in the wall to eat at. Food was amazing and you must get the Cafe Cubano.

Buenas comida y excelente servicio!!!! Los precios muy económicos.

Went for the 1st time tonight for dinner with the family.. the new location on San Jose. AMAZING!! All of us tried a different entree and we were blown away by the portion side and fresh, flavorful dishes. We WILL be back! Mambo sauce, cilantro, chimichurri sauce all great. The shredded Mojo pork with onion perhaps my fav. The staff were so attentive and welcoming. Clean restaurant with lots of space! Welcome to the neighborhood. See you soon!
