Lovely restaurant with homestyle comfort. Entrees are made with fresh ingredients and taste amazing. I appreciate the options for gluten free, dairy free and vegetarian guests.

The sandwich ordered was dripping with grease. The customer service was okay but not great. Don’t eat here unless you want a dish of grease.

Always in search of a great Cubano sandwich, I definitely found one here! Excellent food and a fun atmosphere.

I had not had an opportunity to get across town in a while. It was better than I remembered it. Outstanding!

Food- Cubano was okay, but priced a little too much for the quantity and content. I’ve had better and bigger cubanos at same price or cheaper in ABQ and even NY.
Service- I asked for an in person service and paid a gratuity for that. For the server to callously shove a brown bag in my face was downright rude.
Atmosphere- dimly lit and badly maintained. Crumbs lying around. Dusty chairs. Felt more like a hole in the wall eatery and that would’ve been fine had the food not been that hotly priced. First impressions of the restaurant should’ve raised a red flag, but then I was taught not read a book by its cover.
Feel the place charges higher for just being in nob hill, which in all honesty is not like Beverly Hills. Restaurant folks need to be realistic about what their serve and how they price it.

So tasty. I had the rice and bean bowl. Service was quick. This restaurant has you order/pay at a kiosk first then clear your own table after. No problem, it was great and convenient.

According to my youngest, the Cuban was "meh." My oldest tried an arapas. She liked the filling much better than the outside. The sweet plantains were good as were the yuca fries. This location is in what is like a food court with not enough seating for the customers.

Absolute gem for incredible and authentic Latin American staples. The Pelotero (ropa vieja) is a must try - one of my favorite dishes ever. They also have very good coffee and drinks. I have had a few of there sandwiches which were pretty good, but I have a hard time getting anything other than the Pelotero since it’s just that good.
Very cool space for a savory sandwich and beverage.

It's too bad the rating is capped at 5 stars because these guys deserve 10. Guava Tree catered our backyard wedding and we don't have enough good things to say. Diego and his team showed up and got right to work, we didn't have to lift a finger or spare a thought. Brisket 10/10, roasted pork 10/10, yucca fries 10/10, rice and beans 10/10, plantains 10/10, service 100/10. Guests were raving about the food and there was more than enough for everybody to have as much as they wanted with plenty of leftovers. Whether you're looking for a delicious uncomplicated meal or catering for your event, give Guava Tree a try; you won't be disappointed. In fact, if your experience is at all like ours was you will be blown away. Thank you Diego for helping to make our wedding day unforgettable!

Food was great. Service was quick and courteous. The atmosphere was somewhat off since the restaurant is located in an old house, however someone could call it old fashioned, rustic, or quain. Had Cubano sandwich and pernil sandwich.
Cubano was amazing
