Went in today for the Cubano. It was delicious, full of slow roasted pork and ham, cheese, pickles and mustard pressed and griddled! So yummy. It's $13 but big enough to share. Can't wait to try the empanadas but what I am hoping for is that they get a fry daddy and make some croquettes! 🤫
The atmosphere is so cute, lots of Lucy and Desi❣️

I love the location of this place. Tucked inside a cute indoor shopping area, this was a great place to stop in for a late lunch. The food here is fantastic and bursting with flavor. The empanadas are small hand held size, I’d say 2-3 are filling. I got 2 empanadas with the citrus dipping sauce and it punches with flavor (I love citrus flavors). I also got the Media Noche, and it was a perfect Cuban sandwhich. The homemade bread with the contents of the sandwhich together were easy to hold onto and eat. Not a messy sandwhich at all but very filling and the taste was great. They also have pastries that we tried and those are just as good, will definitely come back to try other items on the menu. I highly recommend this place, the staff were also incredibly nice, and food came out quickly! (No photos, I was hungry and forgot to take one)

I am so frustrated. I cannot have dairy which is absolutely out of my control. I came in Saturday morning and they have nothing I can have. No offer to make a burrito I could eat, so I had to leave sad and hungry. I will not be coming back.

I haven't been this happy with Cuban Coffee and a Cuban sandwich since I lived in South Florida. I love this place!

I’ve craved good Cuban coffee and pastries ever since my time in Miami. This place didn’t disappoint. One sip of the cafe con leche sent me to cloud 9. And the pastries are sublime. I can’t wait to go back. I only wish I found this place sooner!!

Fabolous food and services, a must visit. Saw this place about a month ago but did not have time to stop; major mistake. Came back with the wife and we were served by the owner, Frank. Very welcoming, patient, and gracious man. He gave us the time to peruse the menu and answered all our questions. We had a Cubano sandwich and a plate of Arroz con Pollo. Both were fresh, and delicious. I had a Cortadito with 1/2 the sugar as I typically drink black coffee. Coffee was delightful and just the right sweet. Go for no sugar if you like black coffee and choose to enjoy it with a Pastellito. The smooth blend of coffee they serve would balance well with the sweetness of the pastry. All of the food is scratch made with fresh ingredients. Seek them out as this is a highly recommend place for lunch. Space is small but very welcoming. They are open for breakfast too but did not try the breakfast burritos.

As a Florida native, it’s hard to come by authentic Cuban food in Colorado. The best Cuban sandwich I have had since moving here. I also got the Guava pastry, they warmed it up for me and it was delightful! The service was very friendly and efficient. The menu is simple and you can tell they put a lot of care into quality ingredients. The environment was welcoming and comfortable. 5 stars all around!
