El Cubano Food Truck Restaurant

Went to the Food truck a few times before they started the Restaurant. And let me tell you I loved the truck but, the restaurant is amazing!!! The bowls are fantastic, the tostones are delicious, the cubano? Oh my lord! And if you have a sweet tooth the tres leches is heavenly!!! 1000 out of 10 would recommend!

We recently visited El Cubano Restaurant in Calhoun. Initially, we encountered difficulties in placing a to-go order via phone. My Granddaughter Kynlee, and I subsequently drove to the restaurant and placed our order in person, waiting approximately 20 minutes for its preparation. The staff member at the desk informed us that they rely heavily on DoorDash and do not accept phone orders at that time. Although the wait was acceptable, our experience took a negative turn when we discovered upon arriving home that one sandwich and fries were missing from our order. We returned to the restaurant to rectify the issue, and I politely informed the staff member that the sandwich had been left out, expressing my disappointment with our first experience. Regrettably, the young man became defensive, pointing his finger in my face and instructing me not to speak to him in that manner. I reemphasized my desire to simply receive my sandwich. A manager then emerged from the kitchen, inquiring if I was certain about the missing items. I confirmed that our order consisted of two sandwiches with fries and one chicken tender with fries, which was not what we received. The manager claimed to have prepared the order herself, and I reiterated that it was incomplete. Eventually, they corrected the error, but the same young man returned and abruptly slammed the sandwich down in front of me. Unfortunately, this experience has led me to decide that I will not return to the restaurant or place future orders. Having grown up with a mother who worked as a waitress, I have always been appreciative of good service and understanding of mistakes. However, I was taken aback by the young man's extreme rudeness, particularly given his age, which is comparable to that of my grandchildren. Food was ok but not 5 star.

Food is delicious, I gave it 4 stars because you pay almost $13 for a sandwich with a few fries... literally it had like 8 fries. But other than that it was very delicious and the service is great!

Had the Tostones Rellanos and my wife had the Sandwich Cubano, and they both were full of flavor. Can't wait to try something different.

First time trying cuban food and it was amazing . It did not disappoint.

The best food I ate here in the United States, and I ordered it from DoorDash imagine at the restaurant. They miss my Yuka, but the food is amazing. I can’t wait to try the yucca.

Excellent place for lunch! Stopped by today and the food was excellent and fast. Highly recommended!

So happy to have a Cuban place in town and we hope it lasts. The Cuban sandwich is unreal and the beef ropa vieja special was tasty as heck. We will be back. The coffee wasn’t great but minor detail

I’m so glad Calhoun has a Cuban restaurant—it adds wonderful diversity to the town! The location is perfect, right downtown with plenty of parking. The interior decorations are cute and vibrant, and the staff are always friendly. The food is fresh and absolutely delicious. Everything I’ve tried so far has been amazing, especially the Cuban sandwiches! The Cuban coffee is a delightful treat as well. I love supporting local places like this!

Excellent food!

Enjoyed the yuca fries and ropa vieja with rice and beans that they serve on weekends is phenomenal.

The vaca frita de pollo could use more veggies or some broth so it's less dry, but it was still 4.5 out of 5 for our family.

Glad to see some good cuban food in Calhoun!

THE FOOD!! So delicious! My BF said it was the best Cuban sandwich he ever had, and my (pork) vaca frita was amazing! We drove almost 80 miles just to eat here and we'll definitely be back! Service is great, cute cafe, everyone was super friendly, and did I mention the bread?! YUM! I hope they expand their menu AND open a location in Carrollton. Thank you for the tasty tres leches cake!
