    I'm never disappointed! From the moment you walk in you feel La Cubanita's authenticity. I have yet to find a place that makes Cuban sandwiches like this little power house. There is something about the pork here that is truly exceptional.

    I come here often with my family, my father only craves sandwiches from this place. My boyfriend has recommended their spicy chicken sandwich as well but I dare not stray away from the delicious Cuban sandwich.

    There is no place to sit, so either get ready to eat in the car or take it to go!

    Tip: come earlier (regular rule of thumb for all bodegas) to get your meal as fresh as possible

    If you're in the area, this place is a great place to stop and grab a quick bite. One issue with La Cubanita is the fact that there is no where to sit down but I guess that has to do with the fact that they want people in and out quickly since they do get pretty busy. All I really had here were the empanadas and the chicken sandwiches. The chicken sandwiches I get with hot sauce and mayo which a lot of the locals get but I also like to add tomatoes and lettuce so its not only bread with chicken hahaha. My buddy got the hot food that they offer, I haven't tried it due to the fact the chicken sandwich is so good but I might end up switching it up since it didn't look bad when my friend got the steak platter.

    I've been there in the morning before I went to High School and the Chicken Sandwiches with mayo or hot sauce are mad good! Y'all got to try them.

    One of my favorite quick lunch spots, I always get the same thing. I'm sándwich de pollo con mayonesa y piqué. It's always very good and not too pricey for the portion you get. Love coming here.

    Came here on a whim.  Location is a little Sketchy but the food was good.  This place is good for those days you want good Spanish food but don't want to go cook the meal or go out your way.   Prices are reasonable.  I have heard my son say mom sandwiches are great here. Never had them.   I got several meals that day for dinner. Portions were great food was flavored ok but me being Hispanic and I cook for my kids daily I felt it needed more flavoring.  

    Would go back considering that I have eaten at far worse places for double the price.   Downfalls of this place no sit down to eat not that I would want to but having an option would be great. Also no credit or debit cards only cash!!  
    If you decide to go remember cash only. If you forget they have a ATM inside but how comfortable would you feel about using it. I know I didn't.
