Latin Square is a downtown Orlando gem! Latin Square opened a new location (North Orange Ave.) within walking distance from my office, and since then, it has become my go-to place for coffee in the mornings. The Cafe con Leche is the best, and it is strong (precisely what I need at 8 a.m.) and doesn't have a bitter aftertaste. The restaurant is large but only has a few high-top tables. Most people order to go, so that is not an issue. The décor is beautiful, with large rattan lighting pendants and an open concept. Towards the back, there's a juice bar. You MUST try the almond joy with cold brew; it is delicious! A few times, they had samples, and if you see them, give it a try. I promise you won't be disappointed. Another breakfast treat is the tequeños and quesitos, baked to perfection. Highly recommended too. I have not tried the lunch menu yet, but my coworkers can't stop talking about how good the sandwiches are, so I see an update of this review in the future. It would be good if they implemented a coffee reward program. Like buy 10 and get 1 free to reward their loyal clientele. Tip: it gets busy during lunchtime, so I recommend going a little before noon or after 1 p.m. if you don't like waiting in line. read more

I liked the concept of this fast casual spot but the food was okay. The ropa vieja didn't really have any flavor and it was way too saucy that once they put it in the burrito bowl, it made everything wet. Definitely overpriced for what it was, the portion was big but i would have much preferred to get a smaller portion and pay less. I ended up paying over $17. Otherwise, the service was good, the person who served me was really nice. there is some seating on the inside but i opted to go back to my office. read more

This place never disappoints. The food is fresh every time I come, and everybody is so welcoming and friendly. Monday through Friday they have different specials of the day. My only complaint is that they're not open on weekends because I would come here on the weekend also. I highly recommend trying their fresh juice. My favorite is the mango then the pineapple the passionfruit, and also the blackberry you will not be disappointed. read more

Placed my lunch order for pickup over the phone. When I arrived to the restaurant, the line was out the door. I waited about 5 mins for my order. The staff is so polite and friendly. The restaurant is small and has no sitting inside. There is a nice outside sitting area under trees and there was saxophone music being played. It was beautiful. The food is Cuban and it is always so delish.... read more

Tasty food, great service with super nice staff and reasonable prices! I love the low-key vibe and welcoming atmosphere.

I wish Latin Square was easier to get to, I would go every day! The sandwiches were delicious. We took a bunch of empanadas, croquettes and the potato ball (can't think of what it's called) home for dinner. Wow. The sauces and service was great too. It was cold outside and there were only 4 chairs inside, hence the 4 stars. read more

A lovely little restaurant that serves fresh food for the local business workers. The menu is fairly priced with a good range of options for various dietary restrictions. I personally loved the quarter chicken, the Cuban toast, and the tequeño! Everyone can find something to eat here. read more

The service here is excellent! I came in for breakfast to go and was immediately greeted by smiling employees. I had the BEC on Cuban bread and it was fantastic. The bacon is perfectly cooked and everything blended well. The questio is full and balanced sweet and savory. This is my second visit & I brought a friend. She had the potato ball and said it was the best she's ever had. I used the quick 15 minute loading parking out front to get in and out without a hassle. It's clean and inviting. I'll update my review when I go for lunch read more

Wow I can't believe I found the little Cuban hidden gem in downtown Orlando! The cutest little cafe full of breakfast and lunch options. I had the best croquetas de jamón in all of Orlando! One of the best cafe con leches and the most delicious spinach and cheese empanada. Don't forget to try all the different sauces too they're delicious. I will definitely be back soon! read more

I love this place! This is my go to for breakfast and coffee some days. They are always efficient and the food is always good and the coffee fresh and strong! This is a good quick place to pick up food. You can order online and pick up to avoid lines but honestly if you just want to pick up a coffee the wait is not as long as other coffee shops in the area. The prices are also very economical. I can get breakfast and large coffee for around $10. They also have great side items such as empanadas, potato balls, and croquetas. Definitely have to try this place out while downtown. read more

I am sorry but I ordered the pork special and I was so disappointed in everything the taste, there was none the food was very bland and I find it weird because Latin food is usually full of flavor. The beans were very bland and flavorless. The pork portion was so small for $16 dollars. Pork is the cheapest meat no reason for such small portion. The rice has the weirdest flavor I ever had and I been eating Spanish good my whole life. Maybe the sandwiches are better tasting but the food I had was not worth the trip. read more

The best restaurant in Downtown Orlando. Open for breakfast or lunch and it's ALWAYS delicious and always poppin! The staff is super friendly and always working hard so that the long lines go super fast. You get a ton of food for the price and It's literally always so good. Don't forget to check out their sauce bar at the back. They're also epic. There's not much indoor seating but plenty of tables outside for you to enjoy. It's small and simple inside but it's literally worth your time to try it. You won't be disappointed! read more

Very hard to find, it's in a building with a different street number! Just look for the courtyard and go to the right side. They were sadly out of breakfast food by the time I got there so I went with a sandwich instead. Nice and hearty, I ended up saving half for breakfast the next day. The shoestring potatoes in the sandwich were unexpected but they worked. The guava/cream cheese turnover hit the sweet spot. There aren't many options to get your veggies, but otherwise it looks like a great place for a cheap, filling lunch. read more

It's finally happened, Latin Square opened a second location and it's even closer to my office. Huzzah! Everything is as amazing as the other location but more convenient to courthouse goers and others on the north end of Orange Ave. I've had chicken with roasted potatoes and stopped in for Tequeño today and it was fantastic as we expect from LSC. They also have a separate smoothie area to get your fruit forward fix, I haven't tried it but it's on the agenda. The service is the same as the other location, friendly faces willing to answer questions and if you frequented the other lunch spot you might recognize some. The restaurant looks chic, cleaner with more urban modern touches then the drab Eastside Cafe that used to fill this location. I'll be back, Latin Square! read more

I originally ordered from 390 Latin cuisine's website and for whatever reason when I went to pick it up they said I needed to come here. That was my first qualm. When I got there (mind you, about 30 min late because of this confusion) the food and coffee I ordered were not ready. The coffee was fine, but the food was pretty bad. I ordered the breakfast platter with turkey and potatoes. The potatoes weren't cooked all the way and the "turkey" was just slices of sandwich meat. I'm super disappointed and considering this was not even where I intended to order from, I'm not a happy camper. Will not order from here. read more

I love the pepito chicken sandwich along with their cafe con leche. Their freshly made fruit juices are pretty good too. The prices are affordable. Unfortunately, I had to stop going because I got food poisoning twice which turned me off immediately. This is not shade to the business I am stating my situation. read more

Order your food ahead to pick up, if you're coming during their busy times, or order at the counter. Limited seating so you may want it "to go". 2nd Latin location provides the great Latin food served, in a bright atmosphere, closer to where I work. Coworkers and I have eaten at the south Orange location in the past, this new location brightened our day, it's more accessible to our current location. We've also had catered for a holiday lunch, the food is filling and delicious. The restaurant decor is encouraging and uplifting. read more

Latin Square is neatly tucked away in the SunTrust building near the water fountains in the church street market. This Cuban gem, is something you would probably walk past but you would be missing out! Lunch starts at reasonably priced $5.99 with many fish, beef, and chicken options. Portion sizes are huge with plenty of left overs. The empanadas and croquettes are divine. Don't forget to to taste one of these tasty items, the Spinach empanada is one of my favorites but be mindful they quickly sell out. Finish your meal with Cuban coffee or the nutella cappacino which is so flavorful. We are regulars because we work downtown. We will be back as always. read more

I was told that I needed to try this restaurant, and it did not disappoint. I had the chicken Caesar salad, which I enjoyed. The portion size was pretty large, so the pricing was reasonable. I specifically enjoyed the chicken. It is a small space and has a lot of customers, so it can be hard to find a seat, so be prepared. Also, the tables were dirty, since so many people were coming and going, and I would have liked to have wipes available. I didn't see any, but maybe I just didn't see them. Overall, it has a decent amount of options to choose from. Again, I really enjoyed the chicken. read more

Delicious breakfast and lunch spot DT Orlando. The staff is super friendly, the sandwiches and sauces were on point and this is a hidden gem in the middle of DT. The food was actually quite traditional and the experience was overall great! I ate the Latin Square Special sandwiches and the banana inside it makes it even better than the cubano. I recommend it. read more

I love it so much. Any of the meats with two sides (Maduros and the Moro rice), they're all good. And it's usually two meals for me! Plus the sauces, the garlic and cilantro sauce are both excellent. read more

Fantastic little place to get breakfast! I had a breakfast platter. Wow! Lots of delicious bacon, the eggs were perfect, and even the grits were excellent! I'm a Christian, and I really appreciated the scriptures on the wall and the nice music playing. The staff were all friendly and welcoming. I would consider visiting the downtown area again just to go to this place. Really really good. read more

YUMMMY and reasonably priced breakfast. I was hesitant to try thinking they would be overpriced but there are several affordable options. Have not tried any lunch options yet. read more

Excellent food and exceptionally reasonable for downtown Orlando. Recommended to my fellow jurors.

Great service and great good. This place is a downtown Orlando staple. There isn't a single thing on the menu that I wouldn't recommend and it ranges from comfort food to healthier salad and fish options read more

This restaurant is located in the Sun Trust building, close to our office in downtown Orlando. Unfortunately, due to Covid-19, they were closed for a few months but opened again about a month ago, we barely survived without them, the best Latin inspired flavors, large portions, excellent prices and convenient location. This is our every day lunch spot, the owners are friendly and accommodating. The pictures attached are from "Salmon Friday". So glad they are back. read more

You know how when Olive Garden says "when you're here, you're family?" Well, the Latin Square team really lives that. Their food is always fresh and absolutely delish- from the easy to grab and go breakfast sandwiches and bowls, to the fresh pressed sandwiches and platters at lunch- it is all so flavorful and great portions. Leo however is the star of the show... he makes the meanest cafe con leche downtown and is always a smiling and welcoming face. Latin Square brings a bit of family warmth and amazing food to a fairly corporate downtown lunch scene! read more

Every morning I go and grab a tostada with jamón y mantequilla (toasted bread with ham and butter) and a large cafe con leche... the folks do a great job here in service and food. Everything is cheap for the amount you get. Food is awesome. Owner is such a wonderful person and helps the community in the city of Orlando. I've had their Cuban sandwich, empanadas, burrito bowls, hot plates, salads, and deserts. You have to check this place out for breakfast and lunch.... #attorneywithanappetite read more

Best lunch place in Downtown Orlando! Over the years I have tried their sandwiches, boneless chicken, sides and breakfast. You can't go wrong; everything is delicious! I highly recommend the Thursday soup special and the cafe con leche if you are looking for an authentic Cuban style coffee. Service is always friendly and accommodating. It's exciting to see how they have improved and grown their business over the time. Get there early there's always a line. read more

I actually had never tried this place prior but it is definitely a nice spot to get breakfast and lunch. They serve a variety of different options from empanadas to breakfast sandwiches. They also have good deals on their lunch specials which they serve weekly. The service was nice and inviting. I tried the coffee special . The Nutella/ dulce Lethe with almond milk hot coffee and it is flavorful. Not to sweet age not to strong. I also liked the affirmation the server left on my cu. A great way to brighten my day. Overall it's worth checking out. read more

Great food and service. The line is long at lunch but moves fast. Everything there has been great!

I needed to update my review because Latin Square has expanded!! It now has indoor seating and a very clean, open feel! Of course- the food is still insanely good and the smell still drifts down the street (I guarantee you half their business is just random folks following their nose!). Another plus is that they have wifi- just ask at the counter. Unfortunately it's not an easy password, nor is the name of the network intuitive but I don't think it's the kind of place where they want you posting up for hours on your laptop! Finally, the owner is SUPER friendly and jokes around with everyone in the restaurant. This is a huge plus because it's obvious the folks working there are happy and believe in their food. This is my favorite quick lunch spot in DT right now because it reminds me of the amazing meals I used to get on the reg when I lived in Miami! read more

This place is a great lunch place if you are in downtown. They have daily specials, all of which are great. Their sandwiches are all excellent too. They make a phenomenal Cuban sandwich. This location has some seating (a nice upgrade from their other location). The line can be long if you get there right at noon. The tables are clean and the white subway times is a nice aesthetic. They also have a good Cuban coffee and a Nutella coffee that is very sweet but also very good. Staff is super friendly. I can't recommend this place enough. read more

What a gem for the downtown Orlando lunch scene! This place has incredible Latin style food that is perfect for lunch! Portion sizes are plenty for a single sitting and the price is very good! My go to items are generally the Tilapia or Salmon (the salmon is amazing, but sadly only on Fridays) with the rice/black bean side (they use bacon in it) and one of the other sides such as garlic green beans, mixed veggies, etc. They have several sides to choose from so you most likely can find something you would like. I am also told they make an excellent cuban sandwich! Special note: Make sure to try some of their side sauces they have. My two favorites are the spicy and garlic sauce. They pair well with any order! The venue itself is next to the Suntrust plaza that has a good amount of seating overlooking the grassy park in downtown Orlando. read more

I eat here often. I LOVE the salmon salad! I am addicted to it! It's the Friday special and the portion is huge. They have a ton of variety here. Beans, rice, fish, veggies, sanwhiches and more! The Latin Square sandwhich is so delicious! The type of rice they use needs some work. It's too puffy for me and tastes cheap but I suppose it helps keeps the cost for us down. They have great prices. They also have breakfast but I have never tried it. The staff is great here too! Give this place a try if you work downtown! read more

This, my friends, is THE best not-so-kept secret in Downtown Orlando. Everything is good here. You will always find a line at lunchtime but DO NOT be dissuaded. It moves quickly. The team running Latin Square have a good thing, they know it, and they WORK it. To date, I've had a Cuban with yellow rice, a breakfast sandwich, a potato ball with meat, and just plain old white with veggies. It's not just the food, the prices are amazing given the portions you get. I kid you not, you will fight yourself to try and stop eating so you can have leftovers. Unbelievable. More than once I've heard people refer to Latin Square as the best place to eat Downtown. And don't get me started on that cilantro sauce! Fantastic! Put it on EVERYTHING. I cannot wait to try the salmon on Friday. Get there early when the pork chops are the special of the day. The cod! C'mon! Join me at the Latin Square - I'll definitely be in line. Bravo! read more
