Indoor dining space is small, but the food is so worth it - order a bit of everything, take it home, and try something new is my advice. I'm Puerto Rican [grew up and lived there my whole life until young adulthood], so I can tell you this food is AUTHENTIC. Everything else we ordered was mostly fritters for a get-together, and EVERY single empanada was made-to-order and crunchy. We tried the crab/shrimp, beef, cubana. They were all TOP. Juiiiicy, with plenty fillings and a good size. Homemade taste was obvi. So tasty, every single one. We both wish our tripleta sandwiches had more noticeable "mayo-ketchup" pink sauce, though, to better balance the meats. But! Those meats were JUICY perfection in thay beautifully-caramelized crunchy-yet-soft fresh bread -- great size, too. My only disappointments were the yuca con mojo and sancocho soup. The yuca was oily & didn't have that traditional garlicky flavor and texture I'm used too. Felt too soggy and somewhat bland. The sancocho had good flavor, but way too thin -- not the traditionally hearty, root-vegetable-filled goodness I know and love. It was more of a gandules/bean soup w/ beef pieces than anything. I had ordered it thinking if my fiber intake and as a great veggie side dish, so I was a little sad. Still, all the food was great tasting, fresh, and just like a family member cooked it all for us. Best of all, customer service is *STAR* quality. So please, come and support this GREAT local business! We're def coming back. PS. They had a gorgeous coquí [local little toad] and garita 3-D-printed art, along other trinkets on display, which you can purchase and take home!

Parking is limited, but we lucked out and found a spot right up front. We were greeted upon entering. The space is bright with ample seating. The staff was friendly and patiently answered all of our questions while we deliberated over our food and drink options. We ordered the following: Sweet and salty Americano Breakkie bowl Beach burrito I'm a sucker for homemade syrups, so I was immediately impressed. My iced sweet and salty was smooth and perfectly balanced, not too sweet. Everything on the food menu sounded appetizing which made it tough to decide. I wanted to try do many items, but we loved our breakkie bowl and beach burrito. I liked the burrito slightly more. It was loaded with the good stuff. I will definitely be looking for a Sugar Baby next time I'm in the Tampa area!

We're all foodies from NYC, so they'll appreciate this place. All the tables were full at 1pm lunchtime. Now I know why! It's bright and airy, good A/C, lots of tables and the staff was so helpful in helping me choose what to get on this first visit. Spot on! Well done, Sugar Baby.

The patio is so charming and quaint, full of character and little details to look at. You can tell there's a lot of history here. The staff was incredibly attentive and friendly the whole time, and service was quick. We ordered mimosas and their world-famous Bloody Mary--both were excellent.
