This place looks like a little dive when you drive by, it is. Like the good kind. The menu is simple but is made to order by two ladies who you would want as a grandmother and a sister.. There are also some premade foods which looked pretty good. The food is real “homemade”. It appears to be geared toward working folk (me) and I loved it.
Not a sit down, came in there to meet. My mother decided to leave lady was not very friendly and I wanted to have some coffee. They don't give refills we were going to eat there, but I decided to go down the street. I stood there at the counter to ask her if she had some soup, after about four minutes, she came out and help the other gentleman that was came in after me. I won't be back.
I’m from Tampa. Spent my entire life here. I have made it my buisness to know the little “hole in wall” local places. This is exactly that. I used to come here all the time years ago. It’s been quite some time so when I moved back to this area I was eager to find out if this place survived the pandemic. Thank god it did. The cafe con leche is buttery and creamy. The Cuban toast is crunchy and soft on the inside. The food is awesome and authentic. The service is informal...
