Great Cuban sandwiches , with fast friendly service. Convenient location in the Dublin North Market.

The food was incredible. This is our second time eating here. I love the maduros, white rice, and ropa vieja. It tastes like a home cooked meal. My only critique is the unwelcoming attitude of the cashier. I felt like he was not happy I was there. Outside of that, the food is worth it.

The food was delicious and I will definitely be back. Had the Miami cubano with yucca and plantain

Pablo's is located inside North Market at Bridge Park. If you haven't visited Bridge Park or North Market, you need to check it out. I went with the traditional 'El Cubano,' not to be confused with another option, 'La Cubana.' El Cubano has pork, whereas La Cubana has chicken. Both also have ham, swiss cheese, pickles and mustard. For sides, they offer maduros, tostones, fries, or yuca. After getting a run down of the differences, I opted to try the yuca. The food was ready in 5-10 minutes. The sandwich was huge, definitely enough to split with someone else. The cuban sandwich was pretty good, but I wish it had honey mustard instead of regular mustard -- not sure if that's sacrilegious for a cuban sandwich, but a little bit of added sweetness would've been nice. The yucas were interesting -- think large fried chunks of potato. It came with an oil dipping sauce that didn't have much flavor, so I opted for ketchup instead. Again, not sure if that's sacrilegious to put on yuca, but it made it more palatable. Overall, glad I tried Pablos and the cuban sandwich was pretty decent.

The only thing I'd order again was the can of Diet Coke. Completely underwhelmed and disappointed. Lunch with my wife on a Friday afternoon at North Market Dublin, Bridge Park. We've seen so many great reviews on Yelp about Pablos's Cuban that we chose them over numerous other great options. Yea, mistake, it was only ok and nothing was standout. Nothing. Not even close. Cubano Sandwich - ok, not great, not enough mustard. The pork is - I'd bet money on this - probably from the white plastic tub of shredded pork from Gordon Food Service. I'm serious. The flavor was lacking and the shred was way too fine for house cooked. I grew up 45 minutes from Little Havana in Miami, and have eaten a LOT of Cuban sandwiches. This disappointed. Croquetas - decent. Fine. OK. Probably bought premade and frozen at Sam's Club or Costco. At least they were fried very well with a nice hard crispy out shell. But they were served with a side of mediocre bottled Ranch Dressing for dipping sauce. WTF? Are you kidding me...? Ranch dressing for croquetas? That's a party foul if I've ever seen one. In Havana they'd run you off the island for that. Sopa de pollo - it was ok. Served WAY TOO HOT - so hot it scalded the roof of my mouth even after letting it sit with the lid off for 10 minutes. Black beans & white rice - the rice was dry, like it had been sitting in a warming pan for too long. That's just lazy to not make a fresh batch for 50 cents. The beans needed significantly more seasoning for flavor, and were also kinda dry. And a can of Diet Coke. It was awesome... So they were 1 for 5. We would not order ANY of the food again. There are great options at North Market Dublin, and this meal at Pablo's was mediocre and lame for Cuban food. My mother always said you can say something nice about anything, so here goes, Mom.... the bread on the Cubano was excellent. Correct. The absolute right bread for grilling on a plancha (sandwich press). And that can of Diet Coke - it was the best part of the meal. So disappointed...

I’ve never had such flavorless Lechon. Same for the black beans and rice.

This was so bad we just left, was very impressed with the menu but to have one person working a Saturday night is horrible. The worker was so frustrated she was burning food and overwhelmed. When it was our turn she responded all orders are on hold for the next 20 minutes. She was so overwhelmed that she started throwing food into the fryer and burning the food that was served. I dont understand how an owner does this to their investment and employees. Stay away..

Got a sandwich from here a few hours ago Tiny flat sandwich for $12, felt incredibly ripped off Sandwich was not goodGuy served the sandwich, then I asked for it to be made to go. He HUFFED and puffed and rolled his eyes acting like a baby. There were no other customers so it wasnt like he was busyTo the guy who served me: you act like a little baby girl

We loved their Powell location so we were thrilled to see them at the Bridge Park North Market. Everything we have ordered from the Powell location has always been solid and it seems like this is the case for this location as well. We ordered an El Cubano and it was delicious. Bread had a nice crunch and we really enjoyed it.

Great food and service! The new location is much more convenient! The lechon tastes just like it does in southern Florida and the Cuban sandwiches are actually authentic.

Poor service , when I waited for my food by the counter the staff was upset with me and said the beeper would go off. There was not a crowd but they were very confrontational We came to the with a party of 7-8 other people and they all ordered their food at separate vendors and received food before our burger was ready
