This place is a hidden gem. I ordered five Cuban sandwiches and they did not disappoint. The sandwiches are huge, and two people can share a sandwich. I also tried the empanadas, and they were to die for. Go try their food for yourselves. You will be glad you did.

Google lists closing time as 1pm. Called to make sure time is correct. Woman on phone said noon. Called back to place order and no one answered so drove there anyway. Got there at 11:35 and place was closed. Usually order for the family and will now have to find a new place. Change your hours on Google and state a real time. Wasted

This is my spot before I go to work. The Cuban sandwich is on point, very flavorful. The empanadas are amazing, my favorite are chicken, shrimp, beef and Philly steak/cheese. The service is even better.

El Cuba Café is a tuck away in a Circle K!This out of the way Café is an authentic Cuban style eatery that not only comes with real Cuban food but the best authentic Cuban sandwiches you can find the Tampa Bay area. American Cuban sandwiches don't compare to authentic Cuban sandwiches but Devil Crabs you'll die for. Visit this place if you dare! ThanksParking: 11 parking spot plus the Circle K gas pumps

Been occasionally dining here since I moved in. Never had a bad meal. The service is always pretty fast and consistently good. 100% worth giving a try.
Phenomenal dark coffee and the sandwiches/rice&beans remind me of my abuela’s ?

I didn't know about this place until my Yelp friend Tim wrote an awesome detailed review about it. It took me a while to try it, but I finally did last year. He was very right. Naida makes some tasty Cuban sandwiches here for a good price. The star of the sandwich is Naida's roast pork. It's well seasoned and it totally makes this sandwich shine. I usually get it with everything, but I keep forgetting that they'll include onions if you ask for it "all the way." It's good with or without it, but I prefer it without. Just keep that in mind and be specific if you don't want onions on your sandwich. Naida also makes the best café con leche. I sometimes go there just for Cuban toast and that awesome coffee. It gives me energy!They have a small hot bar area of daily offerings with some kind of rice and beans. It may change daily. I haven't ordered a platter, but I will one day. They do have a tasty arroz con salchichas side item. My mom used to make it sometimes with those little canned Vienna sausages. Yeah, it's a comfort thing for me. They also make wonderful breakfast sandwiches and ham croquettes.El Cuba Cafe is hidden inside of a Circle K convenience store on Bell Shoals Road. It's directly across the street from Publix at Bloomingdale Square. I know it has Cuba in the name, but their is a lot of Puerto Rican representation here. That may also be why I'm so fond of it. It's also super convenient, and the service is great. I usually drive in the back way to avoid all the construction nearby. There's no dining area. You just order your meal and take it with you. It's a no frills kind of place. A real hidden gem!
