“ I can’t believe that I got one of the best Cuban sandwiches I’ve ever eaten in Black Mountain, North Carolina! I was so excited to try a Cuban sandwich as I grew up in South Florida and ate Cuban all the time. Everything about the sandwich was perfect. Wonderful portion I was stuffed. ”
“ My new favorite Cuban spot. Delicious food, good portions, great prices and authentic! They had run out of my favorite dessert so she sprinkled guava over the queso pastel! That's real service with a heart right there. Thank you! ”
“ A truly amazing restaurant that I'm so glad to have right in my hometown. Incredible hospitality, delicious food and coffee, affordable prices. These lovely people even opened up serving donation based menu items during the aftermath of Helene. It was so nice to have a little bit of normalcy and Cuban nibbles. The pastry case is full of options! The menu has so many great meals that it's hard to choose only one. You can't go wrong with any of them. They even serve amazing vegan food. ”
