That was one dry empanada and rice. I feel like a champ for finishing it. I really suspect the good reviews are fake.

The picadillo soup and beef empanada were fantastic! Service was fast and friendly. Highly recommend.

Best empanadas I’ve ever had! Such a cute place and everyone is always so nice! We have been coming here for 6 years and stop here every time we come and always recommend it to everyone.

This morning with my daughter we just get a couples beef empanadas, 2 chicken and rice soup and cuban sandwich. the empanada had a flavor super sour, I don't know if that was over fermented or super old with a vinegar flavor. Of course it wasn't fresh. Same with the chicken and rice soup,
It was cold and had a taste of Parmesan cheese, which it does not have. Nothing was fresh or of good quality. It was the worst $52 I've ever spent. I hope the owners can properly train their employees to sell at least the minimum quality product. Not to mention that everything we bought ended up in the trash, since we weren't sure we would be able to consume the food in that quality.

Didn't have many Cuban items very disappointed

Guava pastries alone are reason enough for me to come back every time we visit St. Augustine; they are absolutely delicious!

Beef Empanada was flavorless along with service. Nice atmosphere.

This is one of the best places to get assorted bakery items as wel as great food for lunch like empanadas and Picadillo.

It use to be a must when we went on vacation, I use to rate it 5 star but since the new owners I'll rate it a 3 star unfortunately.

The food was simply ruined, got a sandwich that had gotten way too much in the oven

Every time I am in St Augustine I go to the Spanish Bakery. The chicken soup is amazing. My wife ordered it and I tried a taste of her soup, and I make it a point to come specifically to this restaurant for their soup!!!
And I usually don’t order chicken soup anywhere.
Glad my son lives there now so it gives me a reason to go to St Augustine for the soup of course……

Good sausage roll. Missing ketchup, mustard, etc at the condiment stand. The sides were not worth it. The other food is good. Bread is great.

Service was great! Empanadas unfortunately lacked flavor and the dough wasn’t fully cooked through.
