A rare findings in the middle of northern central Florida, country side. A real Cuban restaurant. Service is very friendly. Moderate to poor selection of beers, wine, and drinks. But the food is where this restaurant excels. Large portion and incredible amazing real Caribbean Cuban taste. Good presentation. Excellent prizes. But the taste is what really makes the experience.

Wow! What a great find! Looking for Cuban food after touring Mt. Dora? Look no further. One of us had the $10 roasted chicken lunch special, one had the mixed appetizer plate, and I had the mofungo with chicken. The pictures don’t do justice to the flavor explosion you taste. From the price, I was expecting an ice cream scoop of mofungo but I got a coffee mug sized serving. The chicken stew with it was so delicious. We had to take home leftovers. Our waitress was superb. We were obviously tourists and she treated us like regular customers. She refilled our drinks without asking and took time to explain things even though she was the only one serving. I wish we were staying in the area longer so we could have tasted everything on the menu

Our first time eating Havana 1959 but certainly won’t be our last to eat here. Had Cubans and tamales, both huge and amazing. The menu looks completely delicious, so it won’t be long before we’re back.

The roast pork was delicious. We also had the yuca with mojo. Everything was delicious. Don’t go if you’re expecting quick service. They make everything fresh as you order. So your plate is not “hot” like other restaurants that heat your food. Very authentic Cuban food.

I was working in this area and think in a plate of bread stak whit arroz congri. This place, which goes above my expectations, was delicious. The music, the servers, especially Katherine (Katy), have the hospitality complement the atmosphere really feel like you in a paradise island feel like abuelas house for lunch and a authentic café cubano make you wake up thanks for have this place ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

It was ok. I was expecting more flavor in the meat. The side sauce tho made a big difference once I added it to the sandwich.

There is a wide variety of options. I went for a Cuban staple the roast pork and wasn’t let down a bit. It had excellent flavor. The yellow rice was very good and fluffy and the black beans were just right with lots of seasoning. I was thoroughly impressed with the quality.
