Quick stop for some coffee after having Peruvian food and the coffee was really good. Ordered the Cappuccino and it was really good. Will be back soon to try their pastries. Also, my bf enjoyed his black coffee too.

I had a Cuban sandwich and my friend had a Vaca Frita. The food was amazing, the portions were generous and the service was great too. I'll be coming back when in Orlando!

Cuban place 15 minutes from the airport as our first stop upon arrival. Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 3.5 Cost to worth it rating: 3 Opentableable: apparently they do, but we walked in as it's casual Return worthiness: maybe Highlights: - Option for counter to get quick food and eat it on the right sideor sit down restaurant with a waiter on the left - Pork sandwich: my picky son gave it 4.5 stars - Tripleta: a cuban with added steak, tomato, lettuce, and crispy potato straws: I enjoyed the combo and steak was tender enough to bite through. 4 stars - Cuban sandwich: hub said it was fine but he has a favorite he's had before in Florida it's hard to top. 3.5 stars - Croquettas: standard with ham were tasty. 3.5 stars - Had full bar Midlights: - Pork sandwich was an option on the takeout side, but not the restaurant side. Waiter put in an order of a Cuban with just the pork for my son. - Took a bit for food to come out on the restaurant side, but that just means its done fresh so we didn't mind. Lowlights: - Didn't have room to try the pastries which are supposed to be great. Solid stop to get a taste a Cuba in Florida.
