I went three days in a row!! Tried several of their bakery items. For me- all of it is a hit!!! Some of the best I have had! Their coffee is amazing! Service and Staff are sweet! Their Avena/Farina is amazingly delicious. Their bread is outstanding! Their more heavier meals, are good! But I do feel they need to flavor some of their stuff with a touch more of salt! But they serve great portions, and the food overall is pretty good.

We came early morning after a airport trip and we were not dissatisfied!! We had breakfast and got delicious fresh baked goodies to take home! The flavors were on point, felt like at home in PuertoRico!! The lady that took our order I forgot her name, I think she was Cuban, she was so nice and attentive!! I will definitely come back!!!

Stopped by here for lunch while at work and I was not disappointed. My coworker recommended the Cuban sandwich saying it was the best in town and I must say he might be right. Inside is very big with plenty of seating and lots of staff to help you out. There are plenty of options for food and even more for desserts or pastries. The Cuban sandwich was something else. It was so big I could only eat half and saved a the other half for lunch the next day. As you can see in the pictures it's completely packed with meats and cheese I recommend it! Definitely coming here again.

Update: Food is still great but something is wrong with their AC. Brought a friend from NZ to experience great PR food. We went around 6pm. It was very uncomfortable. It was like they turned off the AC. AC worked b/c the bathrooms were quite cool. We were sweating just sitting there eating. If the AC isn't working, just get it to go. Great Puerto Rican place. Has both a bakery and hot lunch side. The bakery side has a variety of pastries and you can order sandwiches. That is the left side. If you want the hot bar side that is the on the right and you start in the middle and work your way down. They pretty much only speak spanish, so if you don't speak spanish you might have to do a lot of pointing. I wasn't exactly sure how the hot bar worked and I think I messed up and got 2 meats, I wanted to try 1 rib and she was surprised I only wanted one and I wanted the pork belly I think she went ahead did this for me to keep the line moving. The pork belly was good, incredibly crispy crust and tender meat side. My co worker got pulled pork and rice and yuca. Yuca was tasty but pretty mild. My tray was about $11 and more than enough for 2 meals. Great value and this place is always busy. Co Worker got the Cuban. Big sandwich they were very happy with their sandwich, only downside comes with nothing else but the price is really great so would rather save some money and get a great sandwich.

Great spot for a really delicious and easy lunch. They have a menu of sandwiches and such to order that is accompanied by a hot bar. I was craving rice and beans so I went with a side of the yellow rice (arroz con bacon on their menu) and red beans. Absolutely amazing, and perfectly filling. I also grabbed a small coffee which was good. Parking is easy and there's lots of seating inside if you are in the mood to dine in. Next time I go I will be spending a lot more time checking out the pastry case. Lots of beautiful pastries, donuts, cakes, and breads to choose from.

Cuban/Latino bakery and coffee shop. Interesting food line, sort of like a Subway for Latino favorites. They make breakfast, too. Helps if you speak the language. The bakery goods are probably good, but I went for protein and coffee. The coffee is so-so; the protein was fine. YMMV. Noisy place, rough parking, reasonable prices.

In Orlando there is a deep Cuban and Latino community which includes restaurants and...bakeries!! I love authentic Cuban pastries so I went on a search! Found this spot and it was perfect! A multitude of fresh pastries and a hot bar equally as impressive makes this a new home for me! Got an apple turnover and a cortadito shot to top it off and I was in heaven. Extremely clean, simple decorations and quality food sets this place apart!

If you are waiting for someone at the airport or just on the east side, I would highly recommend this restaurant. There's a hot bar, sandwich options, and a bakery. I was a little intimidated as it consisted of mostly Spanish speakers, but we worked it out. The sandwich was made to order, and full of meat. I only ate half with papas fritas, and share the other half. It was extremely filling and delicious. There was a lot of people in line, ample sitting room, and a separate line for the hot bar. Little confusing but all in all, a great experience.
