NO one would ever think pizza from a Cuban restaurant would be soooo good. My wife ordered one for herself about a month ago. She left me a slice and I thought, this is a dream. I work down the street, there's no reason why I wouldn't have eaten this wonderful deliciousness. This pizza reminds me of what pizza hut used to be 20+ years ago. There has to be at least 3 different cheeses and the most buttery crust. I thought for sure there was a special kind of pepperoni, they had the right about of spicy and so flavorful. It was well worth the heartburn I suffered for several hours. My fifth grade pallet wants to eat this pizza EVERYDAY! Definitely a must try.
An excellent taste of Miami spot here in Jax. If you've never had Cuban pizza this is an excellent spot to put on your bucket list. The best explanation would be a Chicago style flavored crust which is very light and airy with a tangy cheese with very light sauce. This slows the flavor of the cheese and the toppings to shine through without being drowned by too much sauce. The shop also has some good sandwiches, the pork is the best choice.
I had never heard of Cuban pizza before, so of course I had to try it. Subtle differences from standard pizza, but oh so delicious. They have a great description on the menu explaining what Cuban pizza is. Menu is limited, but in a good way. Not overwhelming at all. A few sandwiches, pizza and spaghetti. Pizza comes in two sizes: personal and family. The box for the family size looks like a standard medium sized pizza. FYI they do not sell individual slices. So I opted for a personal, plain cheese pizza because I wanted to get the real experience of what this pizza should taste like. The price was spot on, 6 bucks! Can't beat it. I also decided to try one of their sodas called Kola Champagne. It was fantastic. It tastes like the old school fruit stripe gum. Best description I can give. So my pizza arrived not too long after ordering. The pizza was a nice size. It's very reminiscent to pizza huts personal pan style, but not greasy at all!! Very fluffy and light. The sauce was fantastic. Again very light and slightly sweet. They use mozzarella and gouda cheese, making for a delicious stringy blend. The cheese goes all the way to the edge of the pizza, so there's no crust. Great for those pizza eaters that leave the crust behind. I'm a crust girl myself, but the cheese was so fantastic and crispy at the edge, I didn't miss it. I will definitely return to this restaurant for their pizza and to try their Cuban sandwich. They are also now serving cafe bustelo coffee, so if you need a caffeine buzz and some hair on your chest, grab some coffee there!
Having a hankering for good pizza and to Dave my salmon dinner for another night, I decided that I'd finally check out Cuban Pizzeria's pizza. I've had their spaghetti and really enjoyed it so it was time to find out what this is really all about. First, I found out what a Cuban pizza is: thicker dough, different sauce, mozzarella and gouda cheese, toppings held in place by the cheese overload. I'm down for that. I ordered a veggie personal pizza and a soda called Materva (like Yerba mate ginger ale) in my delivery app and it was on my doorstep in the amount of time they said it would be there. I could smell the pizza through my door and it smelled delicious. I picked up a small pizza box and a bag containing the soda and brought it in. I tasted the Materva and yup, ginger ale like. Just perfect and light enough to enjoy with a pizza. Upon opening the box I discovered that the pizza was no bigger than a paper plate, perfect size for one person. I took a slice in my hand and took a bite. The ratio of toppings to dough is perfectly balanced and I really liked the puffy dough. I couldn't stop eating it until it was all gone. I was full and satisfied. Definitely going to be on my list of quick and delicious eats.
Cuban Pizzeria - what could this be I wondered. I had to look it up and find out during a recent trip to Jacksonville. They sell pizza which is made with a little different style dough and a combination of mozzarella and Gouda cheese I believe. They also sell Cuban sandwiches and I love those! So, I had to try them. The pizza was solid. It had a few things that reminded me of the older style pan pizzas from Pizza Hut but it was better than that. The dough was not very heavy despite being thick. The Cuban sandwich had good flavor and bread although the pork was dry both times I got it on two separate days. They do make it fresh and put both mayonnaise and mustard on it.
Horrible food! The steak was tough as leather and the sandwich had only 2 small slices of Roma tomato. We spent $50 for sandwiches and fries. The fries were ok but the sandwiches were not edible. Threw the sandwiches out after a few bit
Came here the other day to try this place as I thought it might be interesting. As you enter, the server asks if you speak Spanish, and if you say you speak English, no problem. The server was friendly, and it did not take long to get my order. I ordered a personal (small size) pizza with pepperoni and mushrooms. It was better than I expected--it was actually pretty good and tasty. It's different than your average pizza as it's made with two types of cheese and the crust is thicker. This place is truly worth trying, and a place to go if you're looking for Cuban style pizza here in Jacksonville.
I have been eating this pizza ever since they were in a truck on Merrill Rd. The pizza are great and they are personal size so everyone can get their own. It is usually not a long wait and they make sure everything is fresh.
If you've never tried Cuban pizza before, you are in for a treat. Be prepare to have one of best styles of pizza you have ever tasted. Here is a little tip about Cuban pizza. You just get cheese, no toppings. That's the Cuban way. This place is awesome and I would highly recommend. They have single serving sizes and large pizzas made fresh on the spot.
Your visit here will be suitable for casual wear and upbeat vibes. The music definitely caught my attention first, I wanted to dance! But quickly you let the kind staff know if you're dining in or ordering to go. My family opted to dine in. The waitress collected our drink and food orders and it all came out together. Drinks are not refillable but given to you in the can unless you order a specialty beverage. And when you're ready to leave, you pay at the counter. I order a personal pan pizza that tasted great. It doesn't remind me of anyone's else's pizza, so that was a plus. This visit was actually a followup visit to the previous evening after enjoying the first round. Give these guys a try! read more

Was in town for work trying a different restaurant every night. This one... authentic Cuban pizza- was some of the best I have ever had in my life. I got the Hawaiian (my favorite) and the Chorizo. Two hearty personal pizzas the size of a dinner paper plate for under $19.00. It kinda has a diner vibe- no frills but clean, open and inviting family friendly place that plays some great Cuban music. The crust around the edge was amazing -slightly charred stringy cheese. read more

I love a good Cubano and have never had one as good as what we used to get at a little walk-up window at a Cuban market in Key West. I've had good ones though. Today for lunch I tried Cuban Pizzeria on University (close to work). They used to be a food truck and may do that still, idk. This Cubano was probably the best one I've had outside of Key West. It all starts with the bread and it was light and crisp and flaky on the outside and pressed perfectly. The pork, ham, cheese,pickle and mustard were all as they should be. And it was huge; only ate a little over half of it. read more
What a great spot for an authentic bistec sandwich. It's hard to find authentic Cuban food here and although the menu limited to sandwiches and Cuban pizza....yes I said pizza its a great little spot. I had the personal pepperoni and brought half home. My husband prefers not to have lettuce or tomatoes on his sandwich but it was absolutely delicious. Papas fritas and all. We finished with a "taste of Miami" in a cup (cafe). Very good read more

The pizza was kind of good, but would I order it again? No. There are so many options of pizza to consider when leaving this review, hence my 3 stars. I got pepperoni mushroom and onion pizza! It looks amazing and I was so excited to take my first bite but once I got a wiff of it, something turned me off. They don't use just regular mozzarella, which is great for a cheese lover but im really picky about cheese, any strong flavor is off putting to me. My cheese loving friend loved it. The crust is thick, pan pizza style! It was suuuuper greasy, (I know I know its pizza), but the box was soaked in oil. I didn't like that they chopped the mushrooms up into small bits, I could barely notice they were there and of course I paid extra for it. The total was just above $20 for that one pizza. Worth it? Not in my opinion but you might enjoy this style of pizza. read more

I finally made it back to the food truck a day or two after first meeting the guys who man the truck. Ernie and I shared a personal pan size pizza(pepperoni)together. It was delicious! I can't wait to return to try some of the sandwiches and some different kinds of pizzas. Kudos! read more

First off... for those who truly know me they know I love CUBAN FOOD the most!!!! Omg please fill my casket with pork & olives when I die! Anyway back to the review... A few weeks ago I was driving on Merrill rd and passed a food truck that advertised Cuban pizza. Of course I could not resist the urge to try something new. I ordered a Cuban sandwich and was not disappointed. The food is made to order and fresh. Literally one of the best Cuban sandwiches I've ever had. I have to admit I've gone back several times just to order the Cuban sandwich. I will have to resist and order a pizza next time. Please go try this amazing food truck. read more

Food was good. Cuban pizza was something a little different, but tasted great. We got the chorizo. It was priced well and had lots of meat. Meat didn't have the typical spice you would expect with chorizo though. Tasted more like a bacon. I think next time I would just try the cheese though. We also tried a Cuban sandwich. Given the options for a decent Cuban sandwich around here, it definitely beat out the competition and was the closest I've tasted to when we lived in south FL. It was a good size with enough meat. Considerably more expensive for just the sandwich than what I'm used to ($9) but I would still pay it again. The fries were a waste of time. Small, Expensive and flavorless. Skip them and save room for the other good stuff. read more

My first time trying Cuban pizza and I enjoyed it. It probably won't be a frequent stop as Cuban pizza is too doughy for my tastes. I got a chorizo and mushroom individual pizza. The chorizo didn't have the sharp spicy flavor I'm used to for chorizo and the mushrooms overpowered it. The pie really was cheesy and the cheese was a flavorable blend of mozzarella and Gouda. The crust had a 1/4" crusty cheese which added a great texture to it. The service was excellent. Friendly and cheerful. read more

I was hoping to grab lunch from them today, but, noticed they are closed even though their hours show they are open. Do they close when it is raining?
Sorry this happen, they usually stay open for business even when is raining but due to some license from the city the closed today, they are working as quick as possible and get back in business as usual.
