5 Best Latin American Restaurants near Lakewood Ranch

“This is definitely the best kept secret on Main Street in Lakewood Ranch! They have the best beef empanadas I’ve ever had. The Amazonian rice dish is phenomenal! Ask for Ruben he is such a great server! What a fun night and they have live music! P.s. order a glass of the Ica Valley Malbec! So yummy!“

“Wow!!! Delicious food, great service, SUPER nice people. We all had something different so we could sample more of the menu. Carne guisada (beef stew), Mojo pork, Chuleta Frita (fried pork chop) all were sooo good. We are already planning our next visit to sample appetizers, sandwiches and desserts. People if you have been looking for some very tasty Cuban/Puerto Rican food (which is seriously lacking out east IMO) GO!!!!!!“

“Arroz chaufa muy rico, el trato y la comida muy buena , me encantaría que probaran también con el anticucho.“

“I had a last minute Thanksgiving potluck to attend and could not find anywhere to make a large quantity of white rice, in such a time crunch. When I called Cantina, the ladies were more than accommodating and ready for me as soon as I arrived. One of the girls even ran out to buy a bigger container to transport all the rice for me.To say their food is amazing, is putting it lightly. The rice was piping hot and full of flavor. The only dish that ran out as quickly as it did at the potluck.“

“Absolutely one of the best burger trucks in town. Very friendly, quick, efficient and affordable. My kids love these burgers and say there the best burgers they ever had.“
