Love the environment, Deli type set up. So get ready to step on up and find your favorite portions to make your meal. Really good food my personal favorite is the garbanzo soup over yellow rice. Would definitely return again. Oh even better, they offer uber eats, and doordash....No I'm not advertising, oh but I am because I was very impressed even the staff warm friendly and eager to serve you what ever you asked for.. Hope you joy you experience as I have my..

Great food. Huuugggeee portions (I got 2 full meals and I’m a big eater) for the price. I got the chicken, black beans, and yellow rice. Chicken was super flavorful but honestly the rice and beans were the star. I could have had a whole thing of just them. My wife got the pork and it was cooked well but bland in terms of spice.
Cafeteria style ordering and I will say if you do not speak Spanish and are unfamiliar with the cuisine it may feel overwhelming, especially since they are usually busy. You gotta make a choice and get going!

The place was clean and for that i give it a star. However, the fish was cold and the skin was tough/soggy. The rice was warm and the beans were warm. Basically nothing was hot (165 degrees). I will probably be sick later. The tea was not sweet. I wish we would have been offered the food fresh. I know it is cafeteria style but it would have been nice to eat an actual fried fish. The cleaning lady was cleaning the entire time so i appreciate that.

Not impressed at all. I'm Puertorican and enjoy eating Spanish food, however, this place did not satisfy. I had the yellow rice which tasted like box rice and the pernil which was just ok. The maduros tasted like they were frozen. The place was busy so I had high expectations but I was totally disappointed.

Massive servings. Cafeteria-style Cuban restaurant. A half-dozen+ choices in each category: meat, vegetable, starch. Impossible to not get a combination that suits you well. Active, family-friendly dining area with separate full service bar-area, pool table, and even an ice cream station!

They were rude. The lady that waited on me acted as if she was giving me something free. The deviled crabs looked as if they had been sitting out for 2 days. HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE

By far the best pernil and yuca I have had since moving to Florida! Can't wait to return soon and keep trying different traditional dishes!

I love this place. They're always busy and going above and beyond to offer such amazing service. Any of their meat options are amazing. I personally love getting it to go in a box because they PACK that sucker with food. Don't forget to try their churros, they're baked fresh and Absolutely amazing!

Hole in the wall type of place. But, exceptional food. I was overwhelmed by the amount of food to choose from. Ended up with their Cuban sandwich which was delicious. Granted, there was a long line to wait in but they may be because of the lunch hour. Regardless, try it for yourself.

Food is really good. I've mainly had the Ropa Viejo but my family has had other things. No complaints. Every time I go food is fresh. There is always a line but it moves fast. Sad part is it closes at 8pm (early). So if you want dinner here, make up your mind early.

Great food, even better prices. If you are in the Tampa area and looking for authentic Puertorican food this is the place.:1

My wife is Cuban so this was one of the first restaurants we had to visit after moving to Lakeland. We absolutely love this place!

For those who have never been it's kind of set up like Cafeteria. 95% of the food is already prepared and you move down the line pick what you want. There are 3-4 different kinds of rice and various kinds of fried plantains. On any given day there is also 8-10 different kinds of meat. Pork, beef, fish etc.

The staff is super friendly and bilingual so don't let that stop you from visiting.

One side of the building is the restaurant and other half

The food was semi flavorful. It wasn't nasty. Was looking for a good cuban food spot on our drive and decided to try it. They gave cuban toast WITHOUT THE BUTTER! Who does that? The best part was the mojo and tostones for me. That was slamming! Food hurt my stomach and my wife's as well. Probably reused oil or maybe very oily. I even had a bundle of hair on my soda cup. It turned off my entire experience.

I had the fish, fried rice and black beans. The food was decent but the fish contained bits of clam shells that I bit down on. This is extremely unsafe and dangerous to mix any type of sea shell in fish stew. I understand that fish stew may contain a fish bone or two, but clam shells is unreasonable.

Good Cuban restaurant. It's a service line type of restaurant with a wide variety of meat, soups snd side choices. The pulled pork was pretty good. The fried pork rinds were good. The green beans were okay. The fried plantains were a little on the hard side. The potatoes were pretty good. Fried rice was good. Service was great. We will definitely return to try other items.

IM OBSESSED WITH THIS SOUP! this is my favorite Spanish "cafeteria styled" place in all of Brandon. The food is ALWAYS cooked to perfection, you get huge portions for the price and the staff is always friendly. To anyone who is thinking about checking this place out, you will not regret it. 10/10 recommend !!

Wow, the food was delicious!! They have lots of different options to choose from. I think the staff may seem short with people but they can go through a line very quickly because they're working so fast. I thought it was a great place for lunch!! The food is great! Fresh chicharrones! OMG yummy!!!!!!

I can't say enough good things about this place! I am HOOKED on their fried pork chunks, black beans and boiled yucca.

It is an little unassuming commercial area with a half dirt parking lot. They have a cafeteria a la carte style ordering where you start with your bases like rice or beans and then pick your protein and finish up with sides. Don't worry about the food being fresh, this place is slammed and they have trouble keeping all the trays full sometimes!

The prices are fair and you get plenty of food! The flavors are amazing and you get some cuban bread and butter to go
