Got cuban sandwiches and empanadas on Uber. Even with delivery, the best Cuban I’ve had in years. These are PERFECT. 10/10

Place was empty nearly when I went, but the food was GOOOOOODDDDDD yall need to get the pork. The black beans go great with the Cuban bread they give you for a plate. The plate runs about $13 and change and the bowl is $11. They have a Cuban sub on their menu I need to try, and that i believe runs about $9.50

The people were nice, but mannnn was the food awful. Don’t let the rating fool you. I have been going to this place, off and on for years and every time I go I’m reminded of why I stopped coming. Okay, let’s get to it! FLAVORLESS FLAVORLESS FLAVORLESS!! The pork was dry and old, the plantains were dry and old(so old the inside looked like a luffa) never in my life have a seen platano have a crust on the inside, the Yuca was underdone(grainy), the portions were incredibly small, and worst of all the meals were $16 a piece. 😔 Not only was the food flavorless, but it had SERIOUS quality issues! I love my people, but this is not a actual representation of our food and flavors. Hopefully you guys take this review to heart and start serving real Cuban food, with correct portions. For now I’m headed back to the Latin Market on Valrico and Sr60.

I'd discovered La Cubanita recently. I had lunch with my family once and a few days later I ordered a take out. The food is delicious and well made. My husband had a Cuban and I had the small plate with rice, beans and roasted pork. My son sometimes can be picky but he was eating gladly all that I offered him from my plate. The staff is friendly and the place is calm and inviting.

This is one of those GREAT hole in the wall Cuban places Tampa is famous for. Try it. Just the lunch plate or bowl will be way more than you can eat. The pork was AMAZING! The yuca had a great sauce with very flavorful red onions. Service was quick and very helpful explaining everything. It looks like just another place in a strip mall, but the food will keep you coming back!!

This place has the best café con leche in town. The food is on the sandwiches are better. Is better if you go in person and order, because they would NEVER answer the phone.

Today my husband and I had a bad experience with our food. My husband ordered a Cuban Sandwich and I ordered a pork sandwich. The pork in both sandwiches didn’t have any taste. This place it’s been opened for years I think it’s important to take care on how they seasoned their food.
