Had to wait 50 minutes at 2:00pm (not a particular busy time for lunch) for two sandwiches because they “lost” my ticket and I was told multiple times they would comp my meal but they still upheld my charge. Nice people working there, and good food, but I don’t appreciate being lied to.

One of the best Cubans around—it’s got more pork and is richer/heavier than a lot of the other local ones, but such a great treat every so often. Used to go to the bodega location in St Pete all the time, glad to have one up here too. Cool outdoor area and attached to a great cocktail bar.

Service was great. The 3 Cubans we got were greasy low on seasoning and not well pressed. Would not recommend will not return

Delicious! Get the Cuban. You won't be sad. The mojo is homemade and is the perfect touch.

The great part of being new is that I get to discover new places. Had lunch here with hubby this morning. Cute little spot with parking and outside sitting. Have the café con leche and a Cuban sandwich. Both where excellent. Great spot for lunch.

This place is not good. Heard people say how great the sandwiches were, tried the lechón on our first attempt at giving it a shot. It was bone dry and flavorless-definitely not worth the money for pork and bread. Gave it another shot today. Guy behind the counter was brand new had no support and admitted he had received no training. He didn’t know the recipes for the smoothies we ordered which weren’t good either. Some of the ingredients aren’t listed on the menu. They’re trying to be too creative and miss the mark there too. My wife tried to order another sandwich this time. They were out. We left after paying $25 for a juice and 2 smoothies. I wish I would have never given this place another shot. Do your self a favor and go to a real bodega and save yourself a long wait and about $40. I saw other guests walk out due to how slow the service was and they made the right choice.

Went here on August 29 around lunchtime. Cute place. However, the food was dry and tasteless. But worse was the service. The guy took forever to bring the food and drinks (1+ h), and we had to remind him what we ordered. When he messed up, he had an attitude. I do NOT recommend!

The best Cuban. Ever. Just happened to drive by and stopped in for lunch. Excellent find!

I really wanted to like this place. I love Cuban food. This just didn't hit. The lechon was very tender but lacked flavor even with the extra mojo I ordered with it. The Cuban was ok but that also lacked flavor. The presentation was inviting though.
It was super good! Had a Cuban and we got the fries! Fresh and delicious! Definitely reccomend!

The best Cuban in all of Tampa Bay. Absolutely delicious! You won’t regret it!

Loved Bodega, such a cute small spot. Mark the bartender was very pleasant to chat with, his drinks definitely were on point. I had the Cubano sandwich which was very tasty.

Great place for vegetarians and vegans. The tempeh plate was massive! It was more than enough for my boyfriend and me to share, and super affordable for a high quality meal.

Great place to drop in for some brunch. I’d personally consider this place a hidden gem for a great Cuban! Great ambiance, very friendly staff and a very nice selection of interesting drinks. Plantains we’re very dry, however, I’d definitely give them another shot!

It’s a cute spot and dog friendly
