I make it a point to visit this restaurant when I drive in from out of town to take a continuing ed class for massage therapy . The cosmetology school is across the street.3 years ago I stopped in on my lunch hour to try their food and discovered it was delicious! The servers are friendly and explained the entrees to me so I got just what I wanted!The restaurant is clean but not fancy the food, however, is so so good! Several customers were coming in to pick up their order. The soup or stew not sure what you'd call it was flavorful and so yummy! I would definitely recommend El Cubano.

Great atmosphere to go study or to have a quiet meal w/ someoneThe food was good and not the usual stuff like pizza or sub shops that are everywhere.Enjoyed the Yucca. Never had that before. Food was put together quickly too. The lady even brought it to my table.10/10 definitely going again.Parking: There aren't a ton of spots, but plenty unless it gets real busy.

They just charged me 12 dollars for this order. The food was delicious but I think 12 dollars for this plate that when I opened it was practically empty. It's not the first time I eat there. And a month ago I ordered the same thing and they charged me 8 dollars which seems fair to me but 11 dollars I think is unheard of. Sorry I love your food but I don't think I will return to your restaurant for a long time. It is not the standard Cuban restaurant that exists in this area.

I found this little Cuban restaurant by accident while on an errand. I stopped with my daughter and she had her first espresso while we waited for our Cuban sandwich and smoothies. First, the espresso was delicious. We were intrigued by the smoothie flavor offerings and there was barely enough for my husband and son to sample by the time we got home as Gretchen drank more than her share on the ride home. Gretchen’s response on the sandwich, “OMG, it is huge, warm, and toasty! Yum!” We stopped back later that day and tried a variety of the dinner combos with the different sides to get a taste of the menu. Desserts were also a hit. Apparently they have stands at the Farmers Markets in Central Lancaster, Carlisle, Harrisburg, etc. Another couple mentioned they came from Carlisle to get the soup. That will be my next visit as I love a good soup. I recommend adding this one to your list of places to check out!Please like my review if I made you hungry or you found this review helpful.Kid-friendliness: I saw a high chair which was readily accessible for dine in options. Many kid-friendly food choices.

We parked right at the door and went inside for a lunch of the best Cubano sandwiches, perfect, crisp outside, stuffed with pork, ham, cheese, pickles, and mustard. 1 would be enough for 2 people to share. We got a pork combo to go with rice and peas plus a few maduros. That also gave us 2 meals. The black bean soup is perfect!. Bringing up the rear, were 2 stuffed potato balls. Food is reasonally priced for the quantity and quality. There was a steady stream of people eating inside or taking food out. Don't worry about talking to the counter person. If you are unfamiliar with the foods, just ask for the lids on the steamer trays to be lifted and point to what you want.
