    Literally burnt to a crisp. Can't even eat it. Horrible.

    Chicken was burnt to a crisp. Get someone else on the grill. Couldn't even eat it. Rice was also burnt. I'm never going back.

    I was driving through Naples and decided to stop at this location for a meal and boy, oh boy, was I in for a surprise. I decided to switch my usual order of a tropichop to a crispy chicken cuban sandwich which looked delicious in the photos by the drive through but instead I got this monstrosity. This sandwich wins the ugliest sandwich award. This sandwich catfished the hell out of me and and when I took a bite, I felt the spirit of my Cuban ancestors shake in anger from their grave.

    Drive through employee not wearing gloves or, mask as he handles hundreds of orders during the pandemic.

    Came last night and waiting in line that backed Golden Gate BLVD. I was mortified to see the drive through employee handing out orders and preparing food without gloves or, properly wearing his mask! Without the pandemic he should not handle cash and handle food at the same time as that is not sanitary. How can you be so careless and disregard your patrons safety. Your also putting other coworkers at risk with this careless behavior!

    Drive thru to nowhere

    The service here is so incredibly slow, I don't think it's worth coming. Sat in the drive-through for 12 minutes. This is at noon and they were four cars in front of me. Do not come here if you were any type of hurry for lunch.

    I typically get the mojo pork and always get a side of the cheesy yucca bites to enjoy with their garlic cilantro sauce, this locations rendition of it did not disappoint.

    Went to Rumba Cuban Cafe and it's hands down the best Cuban food I've had in Naples. No question…read more It's not my Cuban kitchen, but it's the closest thing I've found out here. The food is flavorful, well seasoned, and done right. Nothing overpowered, nothing sloppy, just solid, authentic cooking that actually hits. You can tell this place is built on real recipes and consistency, not shortcuts. The vibe is simple, casual, and exactly what it should be. No fluff, just good food and people who know what they're doing. If you're in Naples and craving Cuban, this is the spot.

    By far, the best Cuban food I have tried! Rumba Cuban Cafe has amazing reviews on Yelp and Google…read morewith good reason! As soon as you enter, staff are quick to take care of you and make you feel at home. Our server Rosi made sure we were well taken care of and treated us like family. We started with their Mojito which was beyond fresh tasting and well balanced in flavor. They had cups prepared on the bar counter as it must be a staple item for them. We also ordered the Cuban Sandwich (full order) and a side of Sweet Plantains. The food was made fresh to order and you could tell from the taste. The Cuban is the best I've experienced with fresh bread, quality meat, and good portions of sauce/cheese. The portion as well was a great size or enjoy when hungry or share. The Sweet Plantains came with about 5-6 pieces. Most guests were also ordering a cuban coffee to enjoy. Overall, this was a great lunch spot! If you want to experience authentic cuban food when in the area, Rumba Cuban Cafe will not disappoint! Tip: Check their hours before going. They are open 10am - 3pm weekdays only.

    What is Pueblito Paisa? According to my Columbian friend, it is literally translated to "Little…read moreVillage Paisa". This is a charming little village nestled in Medellin, Columbia. With its cobblestone streets, white church, colorful buildings, plaza and breathtaking view on the Nutibara Hill, it becomes a popular tourist attraction in Medellin! Pueblito Paisa was built in 70's to replicate a typical Antioquian Village to showcase their lifestyle and heritage! Mi Pueblito Paisa started as food truck at 4509 Lee Blvd, Lehigh Acres serving Columbian cuisine. In late 2023, they moved to FGCU's University Village. It is situated next to Tacos and Tequila Cantina. It has six inside tables and more than dozen outside tables. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner from Tuesday to Sunday! We walked in for early dinner on Saturday. The staff is very hospitable, friendly and answered many questions we had. This location was a take-out restaurant with heavy deep-fried items. The ambiance was simple other than the huge Mi Pueblito Paisa sign with customs and hats. If you go to www. mipueblitopasia.com, or Facebook or Instagram, it still refers to the Lehigh Acres food truck location and menu. The new menu using QR code on the table was not working in my iPhone. The new menu at the University Village is greatly expanded. Their web site or social media is work in progress! I have images of some of popular Columbian dishes from home and with the help of our server, we ordered a Salchipapas, and Cazuela de Marisco with a nice Mora fruit drink! The Salchipapas, one of popular fast-food dish commonly served as street food. The Pueblito Paisa version has crunchy French Fries topped with sausage, pork belly, white cheese in condiments. The sausage and pork belly added the savory taste to the fries! The portion was huge and we took half portion home! Th Cazuela de Marisco was a seafood stew that is served with Avocado/tomato salad, coconut rice and fried plantains or tostones. This seafood stew was served with small shrimps, clams, scallops, and calamari but packed in flavor! The avocado/tomato salad with a little onion added a refreshing taste to the stew. Wife loves that coconut rice but she is not a fried plantain fan! If you like Columbian food, this is the place to visit! We'll back for more Sancocho, Bandeja and Picada!

    I waited an hour for arepa. The restaurant wasn't even full. Food was delicious but we need quicker…read moreservice. Water didn't arrive until after being there 30 minutes.
