Stopped here after a recommendation of a friend, and it was delicious! All the food was priced fairly, was flavorful and came out quickly. Our favorite was the coconut wrap by far. The gal at the ordering window even brought out water for our dog, since we had to eat outside. Can't wait to come back for breakfast! read more

Really happy we got the chance to try out Hector's in person (previously placed a to go order). First things first, they have limited indoor and outdoor seating, so there can be a bit of a wait especially if you check this out at busy meal times on the weekend. We actually placed our order to go, but when we returned to pick it up 20 minutes later, a couple tables opened up, so we were able to dine in. My wife and I went with the following: CARNE ASADA thinly sliced skirt steak with sauté vegetables topped with chimichurri sauce 13.99 (5 out of 5) COCONUT WRAP filled large tortilla with pork, mofongo fresh mango and coconut sauce 13.99 (5 out of 5) Service was phenomenal and prices are very reasonable, especially considering the portion sizes. Can't say enough about how good Hector's Kitchen is - Try them out! read more

Great way to experience some unique flavors. Enjoyed the plantains and other dishes whose names I cannot remember. Everything seemed to be custom-made, no frozen or fast-food quality about it. Service was prompt and mindful of our requests. Seating is very limited. If the parking lot is full, you should expect a wait. read more

This place is fantastic! Authentic Cuban food. The slow cooked pork is great. Cuban sandwich is the best. I will be back.

I love this place. The food is always great and the staff is always so nice. The atmosphere here is so fun and peaceful.

A delicious find when headed north. Lucky we searched Yelp just in time to exit in Atalla and head to Hector's. Yummy Columbian food! Friendly service in a laid back place. Highly recommend!!!! read more

After some growing pains, Hector's is back to being the Gem it was when it first opened, but with an expanded selection of food, drink, pastry, and now breakfast. You can't really go wrong here! Everything is delicious, flavorful, and homemade. read more

No question - best food around. What's good? Everything. I've tried it all. Just go here.

I was in Gadsden for work and a colleague recommended Hector's Kitchen. He told me he'd never had a bad meal here. It was close to my hotel and it didn't disappoint! The bowl was amazing and the habañero sauce had a great flavor with a medium heat level. Everyone was friendly and helpful. You can tell they like working there. A definite must try if your looking for something a little different! read more

To be fair, we came when Hector wasn't there so I'm not sure if it was a good representation of the food here. The soup was delicious but the entrees themselves lacked flavor. I always hear from everyone that the food is supreme so we will be back to try it again. read more

Hector's was just great. There literally was something there for all of us. We were traveling with my in-laws who are not very adventurous dietary wise. Even they enjoyed their meals. The bowls with all the goodies were amazing and I am always up for yucca in any form. We were traveling, and I just wish Hector's Kitchen was closer to home. read more

Great food! Good service Fast and timely I appreciated the menu options I was impressed with the quality of the food read more

While this place is still pretty good I do feel that it was much better a few years ago when the original owner was there. The menu has changed and the prices have increased. I suppose that's just the economy but it doesn't seem near as fresh and flavorful as it used to be when I first fell in love with it :( read more

Where do I even start?!?! My husband and I drove over an hour to try Hectors Kitchen for the first time. It's Veterans Day and we are both Veterans. This place did NOT disappoint! We started with chips and salsa and the empanada. I then saw they had jalapeño cheesesticks and got back up to order those. The salsa was chunky and I hate chunky salsa. It looked like it would be bland. Boy was I wrong! I absolutely LOVED it! Full of flavor! The beef empanada came with sauce (as did our other dishes), it was not needed! The empanadas were AH-MAZ-ING! SO glad I got back up to order the jalapeño cheesesticks! They were the best cheesesticks EVER! For our main dishes, I ordered the Carne asada and hubby got the Cuban sandwich. He said the Cuban was "okay", but to be fair, he doesn't care for that kind of food. My Carne Asada was the best ever! NOTHING about that dish was lacking flavor!!! NOTHING! The plantains were sweet and savory but not too sweet. The fried plantains had cilantro and other seasonings. My rice was so full of flavor and the black beans as well! The meat was tender and I just mixed everything together and ate it because I couldn't decide what to eat first lol There was so much food that I made 3 meals out of it! The girls at the front were SO friendly! The bathroom was very clean and so cute! They have outside dining, inside dining and a take-out window. The whole place was clean. Prices were very fair and I have not one single complaint. Thank you SO much for a perfect lunch on our special day! read more

Cute, no frills, clean hole in the wall that did not disappoint. Wgood. An empanada. the chicken soup and a bowl with Carne asada and vegetables. The habenero sauce is yummy. Everything was great. The only thing that could have made this better would have been the addition of some avocado. I have a feeling everything on the menu is good. Limited indoor seating...about 8 tables...we were one of two occupied tables. You will not be disappointed and will definitely leave full. read more

My wife and I traveled the 2 hours from Tuscumbia, AL for lunch today. I had seen their Facebook page and sounded like a unique place. She had the loaded fries and I had the Cuben. Both were delicious. Our waitress Abby was great. We will be back. read more

Gadsden was the halfway point between our house and our vacation destination. We asked Yelp for lunch recommendations and, as always, Yelp came through! Quaint little hole in the wall with excellent Latino menu. Great, friendly atmosphere with friendly, attentive staff. Wifey had a Cuban Sandwich with tortilla chips and some excellent queso. I had a marinated pork chop with grilled pineapple, yellow rice, black beans with a fried egg on top. All was delish. We REALLY enjoyed our lunch. So much so, that it saddens me, I will not likely be in Gadsden again-maybe ever. If you are ever in Gadsden, check out this gem. You won't be disappointed. read more

Lived up to it's 5 star rating. First time visit passing through on Highway 11. Glad we stopped. Service was friendly & welcoming. Food was amazing. Everything was fresh & flavorful. If I were Colombian/Cuban- I'd expect this is how Grandma would cook. Definitely would stop again for lunch. read more

Heard about this restaurant by word of mouth and drove from out of town to try it out. We had an excellent meal, there is much to choose from. Ropa Vieja was very tender served over yellow rice with sides of black beans, yucca fries and plantains. We also had the Mofongo with a fried egg black beans and tostones. The homemade sauces are very good, salsa verde and chimichurri. Our appetizers of street corn and croquettes were very tasty. Would definitely return to try other menu options. read more
