Best cuban sandwich in town, we…read morealready knew that, but this new spot brings Cuban coffee (delicious Cuban style cortado and cafe con leche) as well as a warm ambiance. With both indoor and outdoor seating, as well as a to go bar, it's perfect for all times of the day. Also, quick note to say how affordable everything is! YES! Thank you Phillip for being an amazing server and tending to our every need.

I finally got a chance to try this place and glad we did!…read more We had the kids grilled cheese, Cuban Sandwich and fries! My kiddo loved his grilled cheese and it was huge (like an adult portion). I had a bite and it was delicious! Fries were good too - crispy and came with a mayo sauce! The Cuban sandwich was fantastic! It's a very generous portion and loaded with lots of meat inside. Bread was great too - outside was crusty and soft in the middle. So bummed I didn't grab a coffee while I was there! Saw the menu after we ordered and lots of great options! Excited to come back and try other dishes! Service was great and really quick!

I love Back to Cuba. It is authentic and fresh Cuban food served in a friendly atmosphere. It's the…read moreonly place in Nashville that truly gets the bread for a Cuban sandwich - crispy and flakey. If you haven't been, you should really treat yourself.

The owner was very kind when he stopped to check in on us. I'll definitely return! There's free parking outside in the shopping center lot.

I love when food tastes homemade and everything here does just that! Don't forget to try their empanadas too! The chicken empanada is to die for, incredibly juicy. The Dominican fried cheese paired perfectly with the plate as well. It was crispy on the outside but so soft on the inside . The fresh juices are a must! They offer indoor and outdoor seating. The customer service is very friendly and helpful by even offering suggestions.

The staff are friendly and the food is fresh flavorful and always something nice and new to try they even have fresh juice not much if you don't like bones in your food they do have a chicken grilled filleted breast but it's very dry Very flavorful though so that's a plus I really enjoy everything I get here never had a complaint and if I did I feel like they would help me find a solution.

I really enjoyed my Birria Tacos! My wife had the Latin Bowl with brown rice and chicken. The tacos…read morewere crispy and the consomé was very tasty both as a dipping sauce then as a soup course. It will be hard to try anything else on the menu because I'll probably have the Birria Tacos a known delicious choice. Ordering was easy and the wait was short. The place is carry out (drive-thru) only. The staff is friendly, clear communicators and efficient.

I'm always saddened to post a less than positive review…read more We've been regular customers for a long time and always enjoyed our meals here, but something has definitely changed under the new management. We ordered a steak quesadilla, and it was nothing like what they used to serve. It came out as ground beef, closer to the size of a taco, and didn't include the sour cream, guacamole, or any sauces that used to come with it. If there was cheese present, it wasn't visible. We also ordered the Acapulco bowl, which was supposed to be chicken, and it too was made with ground beef instead. Unfortunately, we didn't catch the errors until we were home. It's disappointing because we've had great experiences here in the past, but this visit was a complete departure from the quality and service we were used to. Sadly, we won't be returning.

We were looking for something different for dinner and we found La Cucharita on Yelp. it had good…read morereviews, so we thought we would give it a try. They are located in a little shopping plaza, so there is plenty of free parking. The restaurant is a no-frills, seat yourself type of place. The menus were written in Spanish and English, so if you don't speak Spanish, you will be fine. My husband ordered the Bistec Encebollado (Grilled Steak and Onions) with rice, beans and maduros. I ordered the Arepas Rellenas--one with chicken and one with beef. I thought they would be small, so I ordered two. I was very wrong. They were so huge that I could only eat half of one! The rest went home and made excellent leftovers the next day. The chicken and the beef in the arepas were so tender and flavorful. I did not need to add any hot sauce or condiments to add more flavor. I would definitely recommend the arepas. Definitely a good stop to get your Colombian food fix!

Welp we done did it. We found them. The best effing fish tacos in Nashville live at Leche de Tigre…read more I didn't believe it at first. I've been around. I've had ceviche here... good ceviche, solid ceviche, ceviche that will do the job if you're suddenly hit with a lime-and-fish craving in East Nashville. If you want the real ceviche crown though, that still belongs to Limo Peruvian Eatery down the street (imho). But let's stay focused here, because what Leche de Tigre has mastered are tacos with fish inside of them. One visit a few weeks ago, in a moment of weakness, I ordered the fried rice. It was fine. Not bad, just... fine. I spent that entire meal staring longingly at Sam's plate of fish tacos like a man who knows he has chosen poorly. She offered me one bite. That bite haunted me for days. So today, sweet redemption. We returned. On a Tuesday. And by some cosmic alignment of fortune, it was Taco Tuesday. Normally $9 for two, today they were $6.99 for two. I don't know if this deal happens every Tuesday, but on this Tuesday, I felt blessed by Paco the god of the taco. And the tacos? These tacos were transcendent. Crispy fish that somehow stayed light, a burst of flavor that didn't just hit your tongue but rewrote your afternoon plans and maybe your life story? Tacos that made me question every other taco I've ever eaten. Nashville, I'm sorry. I didn't know it could be like this. Leche de Tigre sits inside The Wash, which is basically an outdoor food court for adults who still want to feel cool. If fish tacos aren't your thing (which begs the question: are you okay?), you can wander into Cuban food, Vietnamese, fried chicken, pho, and other distractions. But for the love of all that is crispy, order the fish tacos. Four stars for the menu as a whole. Five stars for the tacos. Average it out however you want, but I'm coming back for those tacos.

Almost 50$ When I tell yall that this place has changed. The smell of the food itself was bad. The rice was dry, no flavor The plantains were fry and somehow tasteless The Jerk chicken?!?? This one upset me. Because it used to be so good. The chicken was so dry and tasteless as well I'm questioning if they just gave me a bad batch but I can never go here again to try it out. Too much money wasted right now for something I will not be eating.

Went in on a busy afternoon for lunch. To be completely honest the lack of flavor from the food I…read morehad is insulting to Caribbean culture. I had the chicken plate with Cuban black beans and St Lucian rice. The signature bbq sauce was essentially a thinner version of Manwhich. As a whole, it was all very bland and the food temperature was lukewarm. People around us were ordering the salad with almonds and oranges on it, came with some type of bread. Not sure the name but it looked delicious! Maybe I'll try that. If I were to go back I'd definitely order something different because this meal was not the one for me. Our server was great! Can't remember his name unfortunately. However, he was very attentive and even topped off our togo drinks without asking. I noticed he was taking care of nearly every table in the restaurant and still managed to get everything right, never forgetting a thing. Five stars for him! The restaurant is set up like an outdoor patio. There are various 2-4 seater tables with picnic style chairs. The staff quickly accommodated my party of four by combining two tables. Service was quick and efficient not sure if I'd recommend for large groups.

I had a couple of…read morekids, which has meant I have not been frequenting the place as much, but I've reached the age where the kids are now talking about their like of Calypso Cafe as well. I can finally return more! That fruit tea is the second greatest fruit tea I've had, being edged out of first place only slightly by Baja down the street. Thompson Lane I think is the center of the fruit tea universe. All these years later I still only get a couple of things there. Black bean rice nachos and the black bean salad. There's not a lot on their menu that I really enjoy, but those two I really do. My kiddos are fans of both the black bean and chicken nachos and I have requests often to drop in and it's usually when dropping in would result in being stuck in traffic for an hour. Womp womp. They recently reopened for dinner which I have yet to have had a chance to do. It's been on my radar but something about eating a mass of beans before bedtime doesn't appeal to my crew - their loss. Used to be a fan of their carrot cake as well, got to put that on my to-do list. Something about carrot cake and fruit tea and beans just yeah, get that to go.
