I grew up with Cuban food and I've missed true Cuban sandwiches. We usually go to Publix of all places to grab one- using Boars Head meats. While they don't press them any longer..that magical taste is still there..most times.
Today's Cuban at Mary's was "ok". The authentic taste was close but not quite there. The pork wasn't seasoned hardly at all, the ham was mediocre. There was also (almost) too much pork roast. Putting mayo on both sides of bread was new to me.
A Cuban should have a good amount of yellow mustard and good pickles. Had to go back in for mustard and pickles. It had about 3-4 pickles on the entire sandwich and they were very very mild dills.
The bread had a lot of oily residue on it from the press.
I'm really picky about my cubans, cause I've had so many amazing ones all my life, from Miami and Ybor City.
I will give them another try for certain and see how it goes.
Great place. Authentic Cuban cuisine. Simple place, clean and the food was great
Made my day. Cuban sandwich was delicious. And the cup of coffee after keep me sharp on the road. So glad we stopped there.
Talk about a hidden gem!!!! The food was very good. Reminded my of the old time cafeteria thing (when food used to be good from them places). Staff was very nice. Took me back a decade or so... when the sandwiches were big and held some home made feel to them. Can I find a better sandwich? Probably yeah, but for what it was, was very tasty. Will I recomend this over some fancy place? Yes!!! Very reasonably priced! Fresh lettuce and tomatoes, maybe a bit more meat (being picky I guess). Let the pics do the talking...
This spot is a hidden gem! True Cuban quick to go cuisine. The Coffee is strong and delicious. The staff is friendly, the place is super clean and the food is fresh and a must have! Will stop through here every time on this route driving!
