Assortment of pastries
Roberto R.

Dropped by here to grab a cafe con leche and a quick bite to eat on Saturday afternoon. I ordered a ham and cheese croissant and a few croquetas. I wanted to order a Cuban frita unfortunately the shop only had one person working the entire place. The lady politely told me it will take a while because there were two other people behind me she had to tend to (and anybody else that entered the bakery). She couldn't tell me how long the wait would be to cook the burger so I just stuck with the quick items to go. (I really would've enjoyed the Cuban frita and will have to come back to try it...when there's no line or they have another person working the kitchen). The ham and cheese croissant was good 4/5 stars. The cafe con leche was on point and the house croquetas were delicious 5/5. Overall, 4 stars is generous considering there was only one person working the entire bakery but they might be short staffed (due to covid surging in Florida again). I would recommend this place. It seems to have a nice assortment of pastries and party platter options and the prices seemed reasonable.

A " CROISSANT PREPARADO" supposedly should have several slices of ham and cheese.

I normally dont like to give bad reviews but this has upset met too much. We are in 2023 and the inflation has taken the prices to the roof but it is unacceptable to pay almost 8 dollars for a croissant preparado, that is supposed to have ham and cheese and when you open it you find one small slice of ham and one small slice of cheese. That is disrespectful. I dont mind paying but I expect ro receive a decent portion of food for what paid. If you dont want to get disappointed dont come here. The pitures will explain better than me. I didnt go back to complain, I simply wont go back to buy food there again

"chicken tenders"
Jenny H.

Don't order chicken tenders they were overcooked, dry, and tasteless, the fries burned and soggy.

Cuban pastries

Hubby and I were looking for a quick Cuban toast breakfast that we can take to go, so we stopped at this bakery. We chose their breakfast special for $4.95 which is a good portion of scrambled eggs with ham, French fries, Cuban toast( pretty big size) and café con leche. I couldn't help to get a freshly squeezed orange juice, haven't had one in a long time. Service was friendly and quick, in and out in 10 minutes. They have a variety of Cuban pastries along with the freshly baked Cuban bread(hot off the oven). Assortment of Latin cakes as well even though I am not a fan of the traditional Latin cakes. All and all a good place to grab breakfast to go.

I stopped by here as I waited for my tires to get replaced next door and it seemed as if this is the friendly neighborhood bakery as many people were coming here to pick up lots of pastries and goodies. I ordered a Cuban sandwich and a guava and cheese pastelito which were both delicious and pretty cheap!

Small bakery that gets super crowded quick. Has the typical variety of bocaditos and croquettes but I love how they have croissant sandwiches and how even the croquetta sandwich comes in one. They have good tostada, nice and crunchy but with the perfect amount of butter and the cafe con Leche needed no sugar. Great place to stop for a quick fulfilling bite.

1 Croqueta when it was advertised as 3...

This is my second time ordering from this bakery and neither of my experiences have been good ones. I ordered a desayuno completo, croqueta preparada which is supposed to be 3 croquettas!! and 4 pastelitos.. The desayuno completo was literally more fries than anything that's first of all.. and second the croqueta preparada only brought one croqueta when it's advertised as 3 meaning I only got 1 croqueta for the price of 3 . last but not least the pastelitos thank god they atleast put the right ones in.. unfortunately not so much of guava in them at all. I wouldn't recommended this bakery at all personally.

The big order!

This Cuban bakery offers a variety of things that as a Latina I love! I went to place a big order for a school event. They treat me amazing and gave me a good price because it was for the kids. So the next day I went to pick up the order and I had a café con leche a coffee latte. It was delicious and vey hot they way I like my coffee with just the right amount of sugar. The place is clean. They have my complete order ready in beautiful trays and they looked good. We ordered two packages for 50 people each of guava pastries, ham and potatoes croquetas, pizza, little tamales, cheese pastries, sausage pastries and different sweets. I tried them all and they were very good and fresh. Everyone enjoyed it. I will definitely go back for more and for my cafecito!

Sandwiches
Beatriz L.

This little hole in the wall in Kendall has been their since the 80s. My mother use to take me and my sister every morning before school. The pastelitos still taste as amazing as they use to when I was a kid. The prices are decent and the staff are very friendly. You can also order cakes to be made and they also have other pastries like there yummy cookies and meringues. How can I forget their shakes that they make fresh that are also bomb. The parking is alright at times but horrible when business is booming in the mornings between 8:00am thru 10:00am best times are around lunch time. If your in the mood for some cuban pastelitos and croquette sandwiches come check this spot out you won't be disappointed. Make sure to get some coconut pastels as well.. :)

A Cuban tostada with a BUG in it.

We just finished ordering breakfast and I ordered a Cuban tostada. Thank God I opened it because I found a BUG in it. How disgusting is that. It made me not want to eat anything from my order. So disappointing!

See all

The baked empanadas were delicious, with a light and flaky crust. The sweeter pastries were also so flavorful but light. Great local spot!

Sunday, November 16, 2025 10:30am - 12:00pm…read more We visited this restaurant for brunch, but our experience left much to be desired. Upon arrival, we were disappointed to learn that there were no juices available, including orange juice, which feels like a fundamental oversight for a brunch menu. After being seated, we requested water from the only male waiter on duty. Despite our polite request, it took an unacceptably long time- over 15 minutes-to receive our water. During this wait, the waiter attended to two other tables, taking their orders and delivering their drinks, while we remained parched. When I politely inquired again about our water, his response was dismissive and rude, stating, "it's coming," despite the very visible fact that I am pregnant. His apparent annoyance with our simple request was disheartening. Once we finished our meal, we tried to get our bill. Unfortunately, the same waiter was preoccupied with a couple he knew, engaging in friendly conversation for over 10 minutes while we waited. We asked a female staff member for our check, and while she acknowledged our request, she proceeded to serve three new tables, taking coffee orders and preparing desserts, further delaying our departure. Frustrated, we decided to approach the front to request our check again. The same woman informed us that the male waiter was the only one available, to which I reminded her that we had asked for our check 10 minutes prior. When we finally received our bill, the waiter merely showed us the total without printing it and stated, "gratuity is already included," with no expression of gratitude or apology for the delay. This lack of courtesy was compounded by the fact that the enforced gratuity seemed to give him free rein to be rude. As we left, we noticed another couple nearby who had witnessed our experience decided to leave as well, further highlighting the poor service. Based on our visit, I cannot recommend this restaurant due to the terrible service and the apparent complacency fostered by mandatory gratuity.

I tried the one with condensed milk and whipped cream and really enjoyed it. Cuban coffee is quite strong and bold, but this version balanced it nicely.

Now let's get into the real review, the coffee drinks were strong and delicious, just how it should be. We had no clue what to get but the customer service was top tier. Our waiter just asked about our coffee preferences (hot, cold, strong, sweet, alcoholic, etc.) and chose the perfect options for us. The only reason why I am rating 4/5 instead of 5/5 is just because of the prices. We had two coffee drinks and a small tiramisu that costed $35. It was all great but in my opinion, this was a steep price. However, I would recommend for others to visit this place and I would visit again.
