Palomilla Steak sandwich highly recommended, also their breakfast are really good too. I went to Ybor and the Congas Cuban sandwich was better so I'm definitely recommending this place. read more

I like this Latin place. They have good food and affordable price. They kind tuck away at the corner of the plaza. We were here for their Columbian Sancocho. Unfortunately they sold out the day I have visited. We will try it next time. The Sancocho is a soup with everything ingredients in that day when we visited Columbia. Not much of different here. So we got the got the Bistec Palomilla. The steak is well cook with right seasoning. I have sweet plantain and white rice as the sides. It was delicious. read more

Stopped in for a quick lunch special to have for dinner! It wasn't busy but I assume that's because of the world right now. The food was delicious and it was affordable! I ordered the pollo Asado with yuca, plantains, and yellow rice. The inside was very clean and there was plenty of seating if one wished to dine in! The yellow rice and yuca were a bit plain for my taste as I like them with a lot of flavor! The plantains were fried nicely and weren't burnt. The chicken was delicious and flavorful. I wouldn't say this is my favorite Cuban spot; however for a quick pop in and along my way to work it's fine! read more

We order a simple scramble eggs with bacon and toast it was very plain and the bacon was burnt. The bread was burnt, customer service was non existent they put no effort into providing suggestions on what to eat as someone who has visited their restaurant for the first time . The only thing that was okay was the coffee, & when it was time to pay that's when the waiter showed interest and making sure everything was okay. She knew we weren't satisfied with our service. Definitely not the place for a Latin experience. read more

The Cuban sandwich is alright. I'm guessing the bread is old because although my sandwich arrived "toasted" but the insides are barely warm. Room temperature at best, the cheese is not melted. Yet it was very crunchy, reminiscent of stale bread. This is the first time I've received a Cuban sandwich with lettuce inside. I'm not sure what that's about. Traditionally it's pork, ham, Swiss, pickles in their mojo. I'm not sure why every Cuban I've had in Florida thus far has salami. There was Not enough pork to taste it. My mango shake was also alright. It was watery and not worth the 3.95. However their hot sauce taste very good I'd love to try it with a Columbian empanada read more

Conga's Latin Cafe - Cuban sandwich - Latin American Near Me - Tampa, Florida

Food was NOT good & Owners & Staff Miserably RUDE I ordered for take out, women who answered was extremely rude. Sent my daughter to pick up food. As they were horribly rude to her, they proceeded to criticize her. Little did they realize she happens to be of Cuban descent & understands everything they were saying. My daughter looks like me very Caucasian. I order a palomia steak sandwich, which bread was very hard, tasted old. We also ordered the Rabo Ox Tail, was HORRIBLE at a ridiculous price of $16.00 lol I will stick with La Teresita when it comes to GREAT Cuban food!! This place is totally not worth the money, food is horrible, plus the rude owners & staff I'll pass.. read more

Food was clearly not freshly cooked and sitting for awhile. My visit was unpleasant overall.

They have mastered quality control, the food is always delicious and hits the spot. Better than my moms cooking. I love the hot plate of fresh meals they cook everyday. I love the steak sandwich with no cheese, my daughter gets the crap out of their rice and beans daily. read more

By no means a bad 3 stars. It's a nice clean Cuban restaurant with daily specials. 1 meat 2 sides. I loved the option of being able to add soup or salad for .75 cents. I've had the roast pork in both occasions and both have been dry. I loved their homemade hot sauce but not enough is given to compensate for the dryness of the meat. The chicken soup is fresh with a nice rich flavor. All in all a decent option for Cuban cuisine. read more

I'm working from out of town, so I chose this spot and went inside on a whim. Ordered a meal, a deviled crab empanada, and a colada. Let me tell you, the food was absolutely amazing, the deviled crab was really good, but not the best, and the colada was perfect. The service was top notch. The place was super clean and so were the bathrooms. I highly recommend eating here. Next time I'm in town, I will for sure eat here again. read more

I'm obsessed with the flavor of their home made hot sauce! Food is very good, the owner is very attentive. If you speak Spanish you're in better shape with the servers ... The papa rellenas are great, their cafe con leche is on point and we are starting to make it a post church regular spot ! read more

Conga's Latin Cafe - Ropa vieja - Latin American Near Me - Tampa, Florida

Delicious, generous portion Cuban sandwich. Reasonable prices. Tostones were tasty too!

Great place and great food for under $10 a meal. Excellent Cuban sandwich. Love the Yuca! Breakfast is great too!

This is a small place located in a strip mall. We came in and there was one other table with 3 people. There was whom I assumed to be the owner cooking and a young girl working in the front who was overwhelmed it seemed. We put in our order for picadillo y ropa vieja with black beans and 2 beers. Everything came out late and cool. Beers were the wrong kind. I get it, they got busy and things got behind. Food was eh...lacking in flavor. Drove about 30min to try this place, dont think ill be back read more

The food was delicious. The service was excellent and friendly. We enjoyed two large cans of Hugo de guanabana con pulpa. Split the pork chops with yellow rice and black beans. We were full when we left. read more

I've posted a review about this place before that has mysteriously been deleted! Anyways STAY AWAY!! I went here for the Piccadillo, black beans, and yellow rice. Their portions were HORRIBLE! and I watched the employees not wash their hands after handling cash (which is one of the dirtiest things you can touch) and then handle my food and other customer's food. Will not be going back. DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY!! P.s- their customer service definitely needs improvement as well. read more

I showed up here late, close to closing time one afternoon & was quite surprised to find a Cuban restaurant. I love many types of food, but living in Tampa I am quite partial to finding new Cuban establishments. Besides loving Cuban food & sandwiches, I love that most of these establishments also offer breakfast during their entire time open. As I entered the small quaint restaurant, I was pleasantly greeted. The specials were explained to me and the staff was very friendly & knowledgeable. I ended up ordering a bacon, egg & swiss cheese sandwich, pressed warm & toasty for my late lunch. The sandwich was fune, nothing remarkable, but hey, that's what I ordered. The establishment was closing, yet they did not hurry me, in any fashion. Did I mention that this place is immaculate? I mean shinny clean, immaculate! The cafe con Leche gave me a nice afternoon pick me up and was quite delicious & expertly prepared. It is hard to give it a fair rating on an egg sandwich & cafe. I will return for a full meal & I am sure I will add a star or 2. What's a girl to do? Keep looking for new & exciting places to try their food. read more

I am definitely a fan! I had a late breakfast here and loved the vibe. It is a small restaurant but it gets a lot of traffic. The staff was very nice. I am a sucker for warm Cuban bread and butter and they sure didn't skimp on portions. read more

You can't get more authentic than this place. I grew up in Miami with Cuban friends and family, the food here tastes great! I felt like I was at a Cuban family home eating. Service was great and I definitely recommend this place for anyone in the mood for some real Cuban food. read more

I have been coming here for a few years. It's not a fancy restaurant. The food is simple and Basic but it's always been very good, I love there breakfast served until 11am. And it's has the best Cuban Coffee I have ever had. read more

Was pretty good! Pork was a little dry but overall great flavor! Amazing service and clean bathrooms!!

Clean (as in you can sometimes smell the bleach) establishment with friendly staff and delicious Cuban sandwiches and Latin foods. Good service (even better if you speak some Spanish). Cafe con leche... ummmm. read more

This is my favorite restaurant on the Southside for several reasons-taste, cost, and selection. I have even brought dozens of out of towners here and they liked it. I love that they have pupusas, empanadas, and tostones and I can pay a couple of bucks to enjoy them without being in the kitchen all day. Conga loses a star bc of the numerous times I've gone and they've not had but 1 server which caused a huge delay in getting service. The staff is super friendly but that doesn't help when I have had to bus tables, serve drinks, and run food. Granted, I could have sat there and watched them struggle to serve my group I most recently brought, but as a former server, I couldn't do that. read more

Just had lunch at this location and I have to say this is by far the best and cleanest Cuban place I've ever been to. My search for a family owned/authentic Latin restaurant is gone. Thank you!!! read more

Nice place to eat Latin dishes. The Cuban sandwiches are the best. The staff is friendly and sometimes even funny. Recommended.

Conga's cafe has plenty of parking. They are situated on a Walmart shopping plaza and they are really the only restaurant there. The restaurant is small and very quaint. They have about a dozen tables and the place is clean, silverware clean. It is a cuban restaurant so it helps if you can speak spanish. They are not the most friendliest, likely because of the spanish/english barrier. Ordering food is easy though, grab a menu and point to what you want. They do speak english but it's a bit broken. I ordered the Ropa Vieja with black beans and yellow rice and it was very good. The food portions were not exaggerated either. I ordered a cuban coffee and it was very good. If you haven't had one before, I recommend it! Overall this place is good. I spent about $12 for everything. read more

Great little Cuban spot. My family and I have been here a few times and we've had a wonderful experience every time. Great food, service and prices. read more

I can only speak for their cafe con leche and Cuban toast because that's all I've ever had but that's my favorite and it's delicious! I usually go first thing in the morning and the service is quick and reasonably priced. I highly recommend this place for their cafe con leche and Cuban toast read more

They make the best Cuban sandwiches and they can do other foods that can taste amazing and the place is amazing

Always come here for a quick and good breakfast or brunch. They never disappoint. The food is always good and service matches. I would definitely recommend this place to check out if you want authentic Spanish food in the area. read more

Really good service and really good food! (Clean bathrooms too). Definitely recommend this place.

Went to Congas last weekend with the family and all of the meals were horrible. Cuban sandwich had the cheapest meats money can buy. The devil crabs were cold with all filler. On my way to the restroom I looked in the kitchen and noticed the chicken was in the mop sink thawing out. People stay away, worst Latin restaurant around. read more

Awesome family owned Latin restaurant....always fresh and best Cuban sandwich in town almost.....prices are very reasonable place is clean ans quaint read more

I order the pork chunks this afternoon with white rice and red beans, the red beans had absolutely no salt in it they tasted disgusting. The pork also wasn't fried how I'm used to having Cuban pork chunks. I'm so upset that I went to this restaurant I was trying to find some good Cuban food coming down from Atlanta but it did not live up to expectations at all. It was really a let down when I tasted those red beans no salt at all! read more

First time trying this cafe because is close to me but the food had much flavor maybe I should had tried the Cuban it does looks good on the picture here. But I think I'm not a return costumer. read more

Went to small Latin Cafe for a quick breakfast. Ordered the Special-- scrambled eggs bacon Cuban toast and small cafe con leche. Toast came out first then the coffee which was more like warm milk with a hint of coffee flavor-very weak--waited at least 15 minutes for the egg and bacon-- coffee and toast was now cold. Asked about food and she said "it's not ready". Finally got cold rubbery eggs and salty bacon. Eggs were not scrambled--obviously poured on a grill and left to cook flat until overdone and not scrambled then left in kitchen until cold. Horrible service and tasteless food. Person I was with got their breakfast about 5 minutes later. I am used to the good Latin food in West Tampa and these people need to learn how to make Latin food and drink if they are truly a Latin Cafe. read more

I went to congas yesterday and had the best customer service ever !! I'am from Miami and I'am usEtO eating really good cuban food ... this place tasted just like home , especially in tampa where there are no good Spanish restaurants whatsoever !!! Every time when I'am in town I come here. The staff is amazing and very humble owners in which I love, I also noticed that they are super clean with everything and that's my pet peeve especially since I'am extremely anal with cleanliness... I totally recommend this place and very grateful it is around , did I mention the coffee there is better than Starbucks , a very big fact ! I'll pick this coffee better read more

They had okay empanadas but the hot sauce was delicious. I got a fountain soda and it tasted very strange...
