We hit up Latin Twist before going to see Kings of Leon at Benchmark Arena. As always the food was wonderful!!!! Great service too! The restaurant is always clean and everyone is warm and inviting. I can't rave enough about the food. I have tried a bunch of different dishes but the pulled pork, yellow rice and red beans, yucca with onions is my favorite. I am not sure that it's 100% authentic but there are always Spanish speaking customers, that tells me something. The dessert, the cake that is in milk, sorry forgot the name was sooo good. No wait and you get tons of food! The prices are so reasonable I feel like they understand charge. See you again soon Latin Twist!

My half of our Cuban sandwich. MUST try!

Lucky for us, this was next door to the place we found on Yelp to stop in for a quick snack. Decided to share a Cuban sandwich. Toasted bread, hot, flavorful and juicy meat, crisp pickles, melted cheese... the best Cuban I've ever had. Very friendly and clean. Also had a beef and chicken empanada. Chicken above average, very flavorful, hot and fresh. Beef, flavorful hot and fresh, for us, personal preference didn't enjoy some of the seasoning. Easy 5 stars!

Cuban sandwiches

I met my daughter for lunch at Latin Twist Cafe. They are known for their Cuban fare and did not disappoint !! The staff behind the counter were very friendly and helpful. We both ordered Cuban Sandwiches - very tasty & tender pork, ham, Swiss cheese, pickle, and mustard pressed in Cuban bread with butter. One of the better Cuban sandwiches I've ever had.

This place has the most amazing food. I am hooked on their pork, perfectly seasoned and tender. I also always get the plantains as well. And the rice and beans are perfectly cooked with so much flavor. I always have enough for 2-3 meals when I order this. It's located in a strip mall on Bruce B downs in Wesley Chapel. The restaurant itself is intimate, I usually get it to go and eat at home.

Cuban

What a happy accident! Driving home from Tampa and was looking for a place with açaí bowls. This place was next door and sounded good. Positive reviews and warm welcome made us stay and order. Plenty of seating with Latin music and self-serve drinks. They offer house made drinks as well as ethnic drinks. We split the Cuban sandwich which was quite possibly the best I've ever had. Perfect crunch on the bread and the meat was tender with lots of flavor. And it was HUGE! We both had plenty with our half. We shared empanadas - one chicken and one beef. The chicken filling was my favorite. Overall, great experience. Wish it was closer to home!

Pernil, white rice and red beans... absolutely horrible! Such in a rush to pack this and they forgot the plantains.

I ordered several meals from here. Pernil, rice, red beans, yuca, ham sandwich, not sure why, but food gave me and spouse straight up diarrhea! How disappointing!

Combo fajitas
Sean B.

This is a really wonderful place. Not our first visit but it had been a while. We ordered a Cuban sandwich and some combo fajitas. The Cuban sandwich was perfectly presented, crispy outside and had very fresh ingredients. The combo fajitas came out super hot, fresh tortillas, and they also brought a side of very fresh sour cream. Perfectly cooked, seasoned and delicious. Drinks are self serve and that works fine. If you like Cuban food, definitely eat here!

Check it out !!!! You will have a blast if you are looking for a great time, been there atleast 5 times. The owners are so amazing, when will you all come to Atlanta

I hate I don't have better things to say about this spot that we were really excited to try. I will…read moresay that upon arrival, everything seemed to be going fine. The owner greeted us at the door, it was fairly empty so there was no wait and we were seated right away. The ambiance is nice. It does look like you've stepped into the VIP area of a restaurant, so it was cute -- not fancy, but cute. The owner then told us about the restaurant being inspired by his mother, they've been around for 10 years, explained the menu etc., it was nice. He also told us that he hadn't been to Jamaica since a kid and that raised an eyebrow -- but we let it go because he wasn't the cook. MIND YOU, I brought my cousin here (who is Jamaican) after seeing decent reviews about it. He brought over our first round of drinks and they were really good. We really enjoyed them. They weren't strong at all, tasted like juice. So I would recommend just getting juice instead of the +$5 to add rum. As we began to order and look at the menu, the prices were really HIGH, but I guess he was going for upscale cuisine -- so we said OK, let's see what this entails. We all ordered the Taste of the Island plater that gave an oxtail, curry goat and jerk chicken, rice and peas, plaintains and a tiny side salad. I wasn't mad at the portions given, but the flavor didn't hit the mark at all. NOW LETS GET INTO THE FOOD The Jerk Chicken was OVERLY spicy; we couldn't even enjoy the flavor. The oxtails were fatty, sweet and BLACK. Not enjoyable at all. The goat was OK, but not very flavorful in my opinion. The beef patties were good, but probably out of a box. The Roti was good and the oxtail dipping sauce was good. The Honey BBQ Wings were pretty good and cooked well. The Mac'n'Cheese -- DO NOT GET THIS. It literally has NO taste and reminded me of the cup mac'n'cheese that you put the powder cheese in. It took so long to bring it out, I guess he kept forgetting about it (they said everything is made to order) -- which, IDK how you make mac'n'cheese to order. Real cooks know, Mac n cheese is NOT a 5-minute made to order meal. He also didn't ask how we enjoyed the meal -- which I felt like he knew what we knew when he saw that not only did the other table leave a plate full of food (the meats) but our plates resembled the same -- he still collected his coin. There is a 20% gratuity that is added on at the end that is ridiculous considering the prices are already so expensive -- MIND YOU, it is not "Elevate Cuisine", its basic Jamaican dishes on Ikea plates. No special plating, no unique sauces or display, no chef's plating or anything. Just a plate of food. Everyone's bill came in over $100. The table nearby us order the same thing and inquired whether or not we liked our food, but we'd just gotten our food and hadn't tried it yet -- we did warn them about the chicken being spicy, but not everything else. They came after us and left before us and left everything on the plate except the rice and peas. I love black owned businesses and I wish this much more success, but I would NOT recommend it to anyone that is looking for authentic Jamaican food.

From the attitude to the lack of love put into the food. As for the Humming bird it needs help in many ways. The cleanliness is lacking, people should see clean tables and no leftover rice grains on the floor left from previous customers. The greetings and mannerisms are lacking as well. I shouldn't feel like I'm getting into an altercation with the cashier. As for the food it's lacking the love from the beautiful island called JAMAICA . When establishments get comfortable they forget what it took for them to open those doors. The hard nights of labor that open those doors, the love of cooking some amazing food, the introduction of bringing the elements of Jamaica. As for the order was an oxtail with rice and peas, and cabbage. Also an order of curry chicken with same sides as the oxtail. The oxtail wasn't tender enough the seasoning a bit on the salty side. The curry chicken tasted as leftovers from the previous day. Again it starts with the kitchen and owners have to be held responsible to the full extent. Either get it together for Tampa needs carribean restaurants or shut down and reevaluate the love once was that represented Jamaica.

Many options were crossed out from an already simple menu. However, the dishes that I got were…read moregood. Prices are reasonable.

What hit me first was the decor, warm, cultural and unapologetically Puerto Rican just my kind of spot! The outside open air patio was just as nice. Very spacious spot with plenty of room inside and outside great for large gatherings. Cozy and relaxed atmosphere with an attentive staff that catered to us the entire time. We ordered a lot of food. For appetizers we had the classic fried cheese with guava sauce, sampler platters and the tostones de pana. All crisp and served with extra dipping sauce. The spicy margaritas were fire literally! Passion fruit frappe is my new guilty pleasure so good. Mofongo was good but wish they served it in the traditional Pilon and not a Ramen like bowl. The churrasco was ok was a little tough but the arroz con gandules was seasoned nicely. Everyone was satisfied with the food big portions and service was outstanding. Thank you. This is definitely my favorite Puerto Rican spot in the Wesley Chapel area and glad to see is a beautiful spot. They also have a live band noticed as they were setting up when we were leaving. They are open until midnight on weekends.
