I assumed from the long line of customers that the food would be good. What I didnt expect was that the food would be excellent! The sandwiches were great but the deviled crab was even better. Very crispy, not oily and full of real crab meat.
If you're looking for a feeding hole with a Spanish Flair, this is the place to be! The food is good and most affordable too! Get there early, or call your order in because this little joint fills up quickly! Still, the line moves very quickly and the orders are accurate.
I stopped here with a friend for the first time. He told me he had passed it more than 100 times before he knew it was there. This place is an absolutely must go to. They have the best most authentic
Cuban sandwich I have eaten in my life and I grew up here in Florida and have eaten a lot of Cuban sandwiches in my life. Their stuffed potato is wonderful. I did not try the deviled crab but will have to on my next trip. Do not expect fast food. Everything here is made fresh from scratch so only stop when you have the time to spare.
Food is great. It always takes a long time to get it, though. I called in my order, but they did not put my order in the rotation until I showed up and paid for it. Why bother taking an order over the phone when your intention is to not have it ready upon arrival? It gives false hope for someone on their way to see their child in the hospital.
The food is so good, that you may have a bit of a wait. Even though they are filling orders quickly. Call or fax your order if you can. Cubans are huge and fantastic. Dinner plates are super. They have an express lane for crab cakes and stuffed potatoes.
