The smells that hit when you walk in through the door will transport you to a whole other dimension. I literally took 10 mins to decide on what I wanted because everything looks absolutely delicious.
The owner was very friendly and even offered a sample of many things so I could decide.
He then made coffee shots for the whole restaurant and handed them out before I left. I highly recommend this local treasure. I will be back again and again after this furst amazing experience

This place is okay. I had a cuban sandwich. It was good, but the pork in the sandwich was okay. The croquetas de jamon were pretty good, but the ham had a smoky flavor. I’ll need to come back for some of the entrees. They looked pretty good.
I am from Miami and was spoiled by Casavana, Sergios, Isla de las Canarias Pincrest Bakery and El Rey de las Fritas, so it’s hard finding a place that matches the flavor profile of these Cuban staples.
Cafe Havana was okay, but I’m still searching for something that brings back those memories.
Latin American Cafe is a better dining experience.

We ate roast pork with yellow rice and plantains. Delicious! The chickpeas were surprisingly very good as well. My husband didn’t like the black beans but our daughter did. We liked the guava pastry. The portion sizes are large. We received very good service. The people are friendly and were very kind to our children.
They did not have pickles for sandwiches.

The Cuban was authentic, but the Roast Pork Sandwich 🤯, awesome!!! Fries were great, too! The plate lunch specials looked and smelled wonderful; hope to try them soon! You could tell serving good food was a labor of love ❤️! If you haven't tried Cuban food, make sure you try it here first 😉!

The Coffee that they have leaves you with a bitter and burnt after taste it was horrible, and the amount of oil served on the plate with the eggs was too much to the point that I had to ask for another plate to swap the food. Hash browns shredded yes, but mushy and some weird flavor I suggest to clean the grill before cooking those hash browns. It was our first and last time for sure at this restaurant.
