????Had the highly rated $12.95 Cubano and it was HIGHLY DISAPPOINTING!First, the service was terrible. No greeting, no smile, NO TIP!Second, it was at Tin Can Alley, so the atmosphere was fun. Cool place to hang with friends, family and have a nice time.Third, the Cubano sandwich. I don’t know what the craze is about it? The presentation was poor; clean cut, no meat or cheese hanging out the edges. The size of the sandwich left me more hungry afterwards. The smell was just ok. The flavor, none. Sure you can taste the pickle, but no flavor with the meat, cheese, or bread. Just a smashed pickle sandwich. Absolutely awful!Times are tough everyone. Save your money and skip this sandwich.

Always delicious, hot, filling, tasty. Their Colombian cuisine is terrific and the sauces are a must.

This was a pleasant surprise for us.Cubano, Arepa, Plantains, Yuca Fries, Tostones were all delicious. Aioli was a nice side to have with the items. Service was very friendly and attentive. I appreciate the hard work the team is putting into this little gem in Tin Can.Cheers!

Guava tree in tin can is always a fun spot to visit (I will note my favorite is the original location, but this location has longer hours). They have so many different things to choose from, my favorite is one of the Arepas. You can also do one of the combos, which is what I got on the most recent visit. The beef is so flavorful. I do wish I would've gotten an a wrap up because they're just my favorite but overall everything is still really good. We came during an odd hour, and it wasn't busy at all. Food came out really fast. The plantains are the best, I highly recommend getting one of the basket samplers on the side with both sweet and green plantains as well as the yucca fries.

Got the Cuban from Guava Tree based on ratings. Big let down. Meat was super dry and service was mediocre. Maybe the other location is better, but would not eat here again.

Best Cubano ever! I recently went to Florida and was craving a local Cubano and I couldn't find any that were good. I might have been looking in the wrong areas but I tried to go off of recommendations with no luck. A week or so after our trip, we came to have drinks at Tin Can Alley and wanted some food. I saw that Guava Tree Cafe had a cubano on their menu and as a joke we ordered it thinking it would be funny if their Cubano was better than those found in Florida. I am beyond excited that I ordered this as a joke because this is now the place I come to get cubanos specifically. It is so packed with flavor and juicy. It's very easy to get the meat dry in a sandwich like this. So if you have not tried their cubanos by 100%, recommend it. I also like their yucca fries on the side.

The scenery is nice, NO VEGAN options, some what of a vegetarian option, can be sought out. November is Native American Month, and the vendors had some amazing items for sale.Vegetarian options: They aren't that many options, and for the entities that have that option, it needs more flavor, especially the house sauceKid-friendliness: There were no small cups. They didn't even provide straws

I had the chicken sandwich and thought it was a bit light on the chicken. Otherwise I thought it was good. Loved the atmosphere at Tin

Had never been to this place but wanted to try it out. We ordered the Cubano and Guava Pollito with fries. The upcharge for fries was over $3 and it was literally 4 fries! The drink was $6 and was filled to the brim with ice and tasted like sink water. The sandwiches had literally no flavor. We both took two bites and were done. Within minutes we both felt nauseous and had to throw all the food. For the price point I expected so much more.

Won't come back again third time trying the first time used be good ... ordered a Cubano and was given the wrong sandwich which is called and medionoche and let me tell you it literally had a single thin round slice of ham a couple shredded pieces of pork and a slice of cheese and 5 pickles for $17 not coming back . Last time I will be duped by this place and their nearly meatless sandwiches for basically 20 bucks they are out of their minds and rude which is the worst part of it all
