We enjoyed our meals here! Our server was friendly and attentive even though it was very busy. Ybor salad small size was plenty for two people, even took some home. The alajillo shrimp was loved by my hubby, took some of that home too. The lechon was juicy and delicious. Mashed potatoes were not well seasoned though. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Private space for larger parties, great bar area.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Good, solid, local option, we will be back. read more

Another lunch here with my fellow book clubers. I've the Mini Devil Crab, which has a little more than Devil Crab, the small plate. I also tried skipper's Cuban Sandwich - delish and it's my next lunch! Thanks  [[HIGHLIGHT]]The best part is, we're seated in the middle of the room, facing the two tv monitors above the bar, both are turned to Wimbledon: left is Alcaraz def British Norrie (2,3,3), and right side monitor is showing Amanda Anisimova (2001-) defeating Anastasia "Nastia" Pavlyuchenkova (1991-) 6-1, 7-6 11:9 a tight second set.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I watched AA's debut match at Roland Garros in 2019 - she was very shapely, sharp featured and moved like chetah. I instantly felt in love with her. ... then her father passed away and she dropped out of sight ... until 2021 when she lost to my other fave - Karolína Plíšková in the night match @ US Open. I think Pliskova might have retired or about to ... Hope AA fare better a.k.a. wins a slam or two or three.  GO AA, all the way.  Thanks Skipper -:) read more

I've been to Ybor Grille twice now, and it has been a fantastic experience each time. The food is absolutely delicious, the pork and Cuban sandwich is especially good, the service is amazing, and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the restaurant is incredibly clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Highly recommend--I will definitely be back! read more

Normally I go with their Cuban sandwich because it's a favorite. Last night we decided to share 2 dishes we've never tried. We went with Papa's Meatloaf and the Shrimp Alajillo. Both were very good, the meatloaf in particular was delicious and unique. Definitely try the Caldo Gallego soup, and recommending the Flan as well. Perfection. Service was fantastic. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Screened porch seating, half booths, intimate for dates, nice for families too.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Full bar. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The night vibe was warm, cozy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I'm so glad a friend recommended that we try this place. Extremely good service and delicious food. We had a devil crab to start with and can't believe we never had them before! My hubs ordered the half Cuban and garbanzo soup. He liked it so much he ordered another half sandwich to go! I had the ropa vieja with yellow rice and black beans, the marinated onions made this extra tasty. Flan for dessert knocked it out of the park! Very fair prices for great quality food, can't wait to go back! read more

My husband and I love this place. The food is great no matter what we order and it is always served with love. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Friday night date night is always amazing![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Staff, manager and owner make us feel like family. A diamond for sure. read more

Service was great , potato beef balls we're hot and crispy , Deviled crab were a delicious hot/crispy and full CRAB MEAT !

Easy to find location with ample parking and seating both inside and out. The front house Staff greeted me immediately and I was sat immediately as well. Had a friendly waitress who was attentive and kind throughout my lunch. I had the black bean soup and Sal's with the homemade ranch, and homemade bread and butter they bring everyone when sat. All was flavorful and reasonably priced. I ended my lunch with the Texas sheet cake. It's a large serving, and comes warmed with ice cream. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The only lack I saw was that the bathroom needs a deep cleaning, and the dining area could use a revamp throughout and updated decor overall.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Otherwise read more

Service was great. Food was over all very good. My friend loved her grouper sandwich. The empanadas were good. Minor complaint- my mashed potatoes were lukewarm warm and not very "garlic" like. Overall we enjoyed it and will return. read more

Great food, superior service, affordable prices. Brought out of town company here, and we all loved it. I had a shrimp dish, others tried the Cuban sandwich. Various sides available. Ordered empanadas as an appetizer--delicioso! read more

Great place to eat in Ruskin! Good food. Good service. Looking forward to going back!

Great service, but the food wasn't good. I could tell that the food had been sitting around for hours without proper heating before being served. The meat was overcooked, the rice was old, and the maduros that I ordered were hard (reheated) and served cold. read more

A wonderful experience tonight dining on traditional Cuban cuisine. Menu had a good selection. Our server, Rean, was attentive and fun. Ybor Grille will be our new " go to" place. read more

Serve steak with onions and make sure food comes out hot not cold. Use enough pork on Cuban sandwich and less ham. Quality is number 1 concern that keep customers coming back. I am very familiar with authentic Cuban food and ybor grill was a great disappointment. read more

The food was delicious and the service was stupendous! Will definitely return when we visit Florida again!

Excellent service and great meals. [[HIGHLIGHT]]All redone inside looks and feels great.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Had grouper supreme tasted great.

Yummy Cuban food spot. We split the Taste of Ybor (Piccadilly, roast pork and another meat) with potatoes and plantains and a rider if black beans abs yellow rice. Food was yummy, and plentiful (we had leftovers) and service was spot on. Always a good meal here [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice ambiance too[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice mid-sized restaurant with Cuban-style food.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The devil crab was large, meaty and tasty. The Ybor Salad was loaded with ham, salami, Swiss cheese, and green olives. The service was very fast and friendly. We even had two different waitresses who thought our table was in their section and came to take our drink orders. I'll probably come back again when I make my annual visit to the TECO Big Bend manatee viewing center, if they are still in business by then. My biggest concern for this business, believe it or not, was that it appeared substantially over-staffed. Someone scheduled far more wait staff than they really needed. That being said, all the servers were very nice, and they took our order and brought out the food quickly. Great for us. But how can you make money in a tough restaurant business when you pay too many servers? read more

If you want a waitress that is extremely slow and wants to argue with you when you complain there hardly no meat on your Cuban sandwich then this is the place for you. Since the ownership changed this place has done nothing but go down hill. We won't be back. Nothing about our experience was good. read more

I love the food here, especially the Cuban salad, the pork sandwich, the Cuban sandwich and the homemade potato chips!! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The service and ambience are amazing as well![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I order take out frequently!! read more

The food was incredible! I got the Cuban sandwich and papas rellenas. As a Hispanic myself, I can confirm the food tastes like it was home made. Valentina was a fantastic server. Highly recommend! read more

It's a scam. The Spanish Potatoes are really just Potato Chips! If you don't ask, they won't tell you. When I said I wasn't going to eat potato chips for dinner, they wanted to "Up Charge" me for a different side. Very poor customer service. Also, the Clam Chowder had no Clams, only potatoes. Never going back. read more

I had the palomilla steak sandwich which I've had several times before (it was always great) and it was terrible. Greasy AF, pounded out paper thin to where all I could taste was greasy breading, definitely fried in under temp oil. They asked me over the phone if I wanted fries with the sand and I said yes thinking it was just the side with the sand but NO they charged me $3.95 for under cooked soggy fries, there were 11 fries total with the order.......what a joke!! [[HIGHLIGHT]]I heard they expanded their facility so I guess quality will have to suffer which is normal today for the restaurant industry![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Never order from there again. read more

I have visited this restaurant several times since moving here last summer! Staff are super friendly, service during each of my visits has been exceptional. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance is and has been great during each visit![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Food has been excellent! I do recommend visiting read more

I want you all to know that the Ybor Grill has the best service. A friend who was with me dining became a disgruntled human being and acted like a bitch to our server, hostess and the restaurant manager. She was sure there were onions in a dish even when assured there were none. The reaction of the entire staff was so very commendable. I was impressed with their patience and wanted y'all to know that this place is one to which I'll frequent Plus the food is outstanding. Just eat here and enjoy. read more

Great local spot for authentic Cuban cuisine. Portions are large and so tasty! We had leftovers twice! Lots of menu option. The only drawback was presentation - definitely not fancy looking on the plate. But so good, who cares! read more

This was my first time dining here. Our waitress Kim was awesome! So was the food. I ordered the steak sandwich.

Well I ran across this place looking for a lunch spot. I'm Cuban and have eaten lots of Spanish food. The place was busy and I had high expectations for a place named Ybor Grill. But what I found was a place run by Riverview locals and frequented by Riverview locals. Ie: retired white people. Which is fine. Just don't expect REAL Spanish food here. Now in fairness I had a limited sample. The pork was meh, the black beans and rice were meh. And the garlic mashed needed salt and a new recipe. The people were nice and the service was excellent. But if you know what good Spanish food tastes like you will be disappointed. read more

Call this past Friday to place my to go order like I usually do 2 to 3 times a month asked for 7th Ave Filet and before I could tell her what I wanted with it, the girl on the phone says we don't have that anymore on the menu and then she lists about four other items that they don't have on the menu anymore instead of offering a suggestion or apologizing if they don't have it on the menu anymore, she just says so what else can I get you? I can't believe they took that off the menu like I said I order that about three times a month one of the best things on the menu why they take it off I have no idea not sure I'll be visiting the Y'bor Grill anymore. read more

The service is always good even if the restaurant is full. Try one of the soups! Oh, and the bartenders are usually good!

We would give this higher stars if we could. Our server Alysa was amazing. She was very helpful knew the menu without hesitation and could give us well informed advice. At one point she came over and apologized for the wait for food which wasn't that long and said it would be out shortly. They have a limited wine choice - one brand for each kind. A decent beer selection plus a non alcohol option. I had the Picadillo which was amazing and my fiancé had the Shrimp Alajillo which she loved but commented was a little too garlicky. I also got the Bacon Cabbage which is to die for. They have outdoor seating but we sat inside. It was nice and relaxed inside and the music not over bearing. We will be back and asking for Alysa again. read more
