I work across the street and have been here dozens of times. This place is fantastic. The coffee is delicious and the food is better. They have a hot bar with pork, rice, beans, and a few other options. I can eat that every day, but they also have a huge sandwich and breakfast menu. Tried the Palomilla steak sandwich today and my body smiled. Love love love this place.

Fast and friendly service. A big list of sandwiches and specials. I got the Cuban sandwich and it's great. The sandwich itself is more than enough to fill me up.

My husband and I love eating here! It’s hands down the most authentic Cuban cuisine in Tampa. My husband is Cuban and he highly approves! The staff is wonderful and very friendly and accommodating. Good prices too. All around a great experience every visit!
