I went here today for the first time since they reopened and I must say I’m extremely impressed. I’m so grateful they’re back! The egg sandwich was phenomenal and the owner along with staff were incredibly inviting.

I haven’t been to this place in a few years, since I left LA. I was thinking about it fondly today and realized I never left a review!I am not sure from the other reviews how the new management is taking care of the place but the photos seem to reflect almost exactly as I remembered it. So, you should go to this place and give it a shot at least, it is great and very memorable.

my neighbors and i used to walk over after our work day for sandwiches and conversation. when the new owners nearly doubled the prices and gentrified the funky decor, we figured we’ll just go half as often. now they close early, and we can’t go at all! it’s truly sad to walk by and see it closed by daylight, when we used to gather. but i’m still glad that the Cochinito folks managed to save it at all.

I’m a former employee of this establishment, and I have not received my 2022 W-2 Form. I stopped working on November 2022, and I was subsequently issued a W-2 form that did not contain my SSN. I’ve repeatedly brought this issue up to the manager, Manny Contreras, to no avail.Despite my efforts to retrieve this revised document, I have not received it. Cafe Tropical routinely hires employees who do not possess a legal work permit, and I do not want to face legal consequences for receiving a W-2 without my SSN.I hope that all potential clients take this review into consideration when deciding to make purchases at this business.

Had cuban sandwich which was better than the ones I had in Orlando. Cuban coffee was good too, Friendly customer service. Ambiance was relaxed. Overall a great place for a relaxed coffee and baked goodies or a fast bite.

As a restaurant manager myself, super unprofessional to hear how they’re handling business. Tsk tsk, I know times are tough, Pero take care of those who take care of you. Simple. Pay your invoices!

They are very poorly paid, they do not pay the invoice for the produce that one brings, they are rats, all those restaurants and the pig are still poorly paid for everything ??? they owe and they don't pay and no one, not even the owner or the manager, answers the phones
Terrible service and management the owe thousands of dollars to local food delivery service !

Yum! Great Cuban sandwiches. The sweet bread isn't overly sweet at all. The cookies were also all great!

What a place, we saw this cafe and wanted to try out the food. When we got there is when I actually noticed it was a Cuban inspired cafe. The coffee gave it away. My partner and I got to try the papa rellena(stuffed potato), and it was really tasty. Then we both went with a sandwich. It was a really big portion, so I had to take my leftovers home. They have seats inside and some tables outside.
