If you're going here for the Cubano sandwich, I would say it's OK compared to others I have had in the Twin Cities or elsewhere. So far, or of all the places I have gone, Obbs is the best. The Cuban bread is winner here, but the meats, mustard and pickles were very basic. The mojito whatever they served with it was a flavorless oil with what appeared to be onion and garlic. Really odd. I also had the empanadas. One beef, one chicken. Those were top notch! I probably won't put the place in my regular rotation for cubano's but it was decent.

Loved it! Such nice staff and the food was amazing! I had el guajiro and the roast pork was so tender I didn’t need a knife to dig in. Good amount of food for the price too! Definitely going back and bringing friends.
If you like food with flavor, you need to try this place. If you like spicy, ask for their hot sauce. So much flavor.
In my pictures are The traditional stew (sancocho), bistec encebollado (traditional Cuban marinated steak), loaded tostones, loaded yuca.
My word!!! So good. And being born and raised in the Caribbean myself, I know flavor when I put it in my mouth, and this food has a ton of flavor.
If you eat here and you didn’t like the food or you didn’t think the food was flavorful you probably had Covid or something.
Oh, and the owners, are so wonderful, polite, very kind. They definitely make the experience that much better.
Great food. Flavorful. Family owned and operated. Everything made fresh. The back patio is a nice little tucked away oasis.
This is the best Cuban restaurant the I ever have at Minneapolis MN.

Layer after layer of carefully constructed flavor in a rudimentary but enjoyable setting. The chicken stew (can’t remember the name)was especially delicious and deep.
