Zaza's Cuban Café

They don't allow airport employees to seat down to eat a lunch or breakfast in their restaurant. if I am paying like any other customer, why the discrimination?

Brutal. I order a coffee and a cinnamon roll. The girl at the register could barely speak a word of English and couldn’t communicate. The coffee came out in 5 min but the Cinnamon roll was a nightmare. It’s literally sitting there in the case. 20 min later the worker goes and grabs it and then they want to heat it AFTER she asked, “hot or cold” and I said, “I don’t need the roll heated”. Then when the guy pulls one from the kitchen that is being heated, he dumps it face down in a paper bag which of course sticks all the frosting the bottom of the bag and makes a mess.

Maybe get some employees that communicate better and understand little things like how to get a roll out of the box and hand it to the customer without ruining it. Just a thought.

Good deal and a pretty good, simple airport breakfast. Ordered cheese toast and cafe chocolate. The toast was super simple, cheese on a sandwich roll, pressed on the grill. Inexpensive (for the airport) and filling. The coffee drink was solid. Service was quick and friendly. Overall well worth it to get an airport breakfast with coffee for right at $10.

Probably the best place to eat at the airport, ESPECIALLY if you want to try Cuban food. It's authentic and well prepared. I've had Cuban food in Miami, Tampa and Cuba. This place can compete with the best. Try the Cuban sandwich, a pastry and some cafe con leche. You won't be disappointed.

Za Za (at Orlando International) does for Cuban airport fast food what Barrio Café (at Phoenix Sky Harbor) does for airport fast food! It too is locally owned and operated by a community restaurateur. It shows it can be as faithful to the flavors of the cuisine of origin and the integrity of its namesake as is possible under the conditions of its airport location. As travelers depart on their way home, this spot gives the sojourner an opportunity to get a last flavor of the Cuban Cuisine legacy they’re leaving behind in Florida. It is a fast-food joint, so one must take its offerings with a certain grain of salt, but kudo for it does its best in both its offerings, innovation and one’s expectations. Some of their Americanized Cuban samplings are not bad such as Ham con Queso and Vegies con Queso scrambles. They offer a great array of egg sandwiches, an interesting and unique congri and maduros breakfast dish, as well as the better-known offerings of Pan con Bistec, Pan con Lechon and more. We’re glad to have stopped here for breakfast before leaving Orlando, it was tasty, relatively fast and the folks were cordial. We’ll definitely be back on our next trip!

In MCO, needed breakfast. Went for the turkey sausage, egg and cheese sandwich. Bread deliciously fresh, turkey sausage was on par with the Irish sausages. Nicer may I dare say! Not too much cheese either. Just perfect.

This place can be busy and is run really well. I had the Egg Ham and cheese sandwich on Cuban bread for breakfast and it was awesome! The bread is light with crunchy crust and just perfect!
The Cortado espresso coffee was great as well. Highly recommended!!

Genuinely good food and drink in an airport, and the prices aren't hideous. For those of you who do not travel frequently and have not been to many airports: this is quite rare. Usually airport dining is as mid as mid can be. This place is an exception.

The sangria is very good. Coffee was fresh and prepared how I asked (more than you can say for the dumpster fire Starbucks here at MCO...). Service is prompt and responsive. Food solid.
