Been coming here for 30 years... Neighbor good cafeteria where all local goes for food... The best puerto rican cuban food.
The food is amazing for such a small space. Very nostalgic latin heritage meals, sandwiches etc...
Absolutely outstanding! This is hands down some of the best Cuban food I've ever had. Every dish was flavorful, and cooked to perfection. You can really taste the quality and authenticity in every bite. The portions were generous, the service was friendly. If you're looking for amazing Cuban food, this is the place to go. I'll definitely be coming back again.

La Famosa Cafeteria offers a Cuban food experience, reminiscent of home cooking, with standout dishes like the sandwich cubano and arroz con gandules. The cafe con leche is particularly praised and is considered perfect by many customers. Despite a minor oversight with a tuna sandwich order, the service is described as friendly and attentive, with fast and excellent service noted by visitors. Prices are very affordable, with a total cost of $32.30 for a generous amount of food, making it a budget-friendly choice. The atmosphere is fun, authentic, and immersive, ideal for those seeking Spanish food in the Wynwood area. The owner, Able, is known for gracious hospitality. The small space has only a few counter seats and three tables, emphasizing that the focus is on good food rather than ambiance. Many customers have enjoyed the simple, delicious options and remain loyal for consistent taste, quality, and portion sizes over the years. Every dish is described as flavorful and cooked to perfection, with generous portions. Daily specials include carne ripiada on Mondays and fricasse de pollo on Wednesdays, often served with rice, medium red beans, and maduros. It is also one of the few places near Wynwood where you can get a warm meal at 6:00am. The historic spot features cozy countertop seating and lots of Latin-Caribbean kitsch decorating the whole place.
