CAO Bakery & Cafe is a chain restaurant featuring Cuban breakfast dishes and pastries. The space is very clean and bright, with a great display case showcasing the amazing selection of croqueticas, Cuban pastries, and bakery items. The staff is generally described as very friendly, helpful, and pleasant, contributing to great service. The menu includes a full breakfast and light lunch, with popular items like the Healthy omelette, Pastelitos Preparadito breakfast sandwich, and medianoches sandwich, which is outstanding with delicious bread. Dishes like the ropa vieja with rice, beans, and plátano amarillo are delicious. The ham and cheese empanadas receive mixed reviews, described by some as packed with flavor and unmatched, but by others as super salty. Other noted items include guava pastries, papa rellena, croquets, and excellent espresso drinks like cortados and cafe con leche. While many find the food fantastic and the experience great, some inconsistency is noted, with occasional issues like items being cold or substitutions being offered when items are out.
