Had the steak and eggs sandwich,as well pictured below. Also got the Cafe Arabe (w.Cardamum). Yummie! Sandwich had a great garlic spread with little shoestring chips inside. Very filling. Coffee was still hot even after eating, and the cup is HUGE! Very nice people. ????
YOU CANT SAY THIS AINT YALL FOOD THIS IS NOT A CUBAN SANDWICH HIGHLY UNRECOMMENDED THIS WAS A SALAD WITH BREAD AND French-Croutons
One of the best places to get a steak Cuban sandwich from I've been going there ever since it's been open and I will continue to go there they always make sure you're full with extra meat this place is awesome I know I love their cup of coffee it is fantastic!
